Shanks has the power of haki, like many powerful characters in the series. With this, he was able to subdue a powerful monster to save Luffy, and square off against other major characters such as Whitebeard, and the logia-user, Admiral Akainu.
It is unlikely that he has a Devil Fruit ability, as he was already established as one of the Yonkou before he lost his arm - and at the time he lost it, he was in the ocean. If he had been a fruit user, this would have rendered him powerless as has been seen before happening to other characters.
His powers are(but not limited to)
All 3 types of Haki
Super Human Speed
Super Human Strength
And the repect of the government to be an Yonkou.
Before Shanks lost his arm, he and Mihawk would spar sometimes to test each others' swordsmanship. They no longer do this, Mihawk does not want to fight a one-armed man. This is the only noted connection between the two.
So far, Shanks doesn't seem to either have one, or hasn't been given on. He is like Nami and just seems to go by one name only.
Shanks is a pirate - a very powerful one, but has never been shown doing anything 'bad'. He has been shown to prefer peaceful solutions to conflict, sacrificed his sword arm to save younger Luffy, and has a close relationship with his crew, who he views more as friends than just underlings.
Luffy well become the pirate king after beating the 4 emperors, That mean he need to beat big mom, shanks, black beard and Kaido.
I think the reason why ace blush is because he had a clear crush on makino. To me, nobody except Luffy, Zoro and Shanks were asexual in One piece. Makino was a really pretty woman and Ace not having a crush on a pretty girl who visits him often for 17 whole years is pretty shocking.

He's famous first for originally being a member of 'Pirate King' Gol D Roger's crew, and second for being one of the four 'Yonkou', the pirate emperors who are deadlocked against each other in the New World, searching for the final island and the resting place of One Piece itself. His abilities have never been seen, though Hawkeye Mihawk, the 'greatest swordsman in the world' would frequently meet up with him to fight. That was before Shanks lost an arm.
