Ranking the Top Bounties in One Piece

Now that you have understood how the bounty system works in One Piece, it’s time to look at the highest bounties in the One Piece world. We have included pirate bounties shown in the manga and the anime, so let’s dive in:

1. Gol D. Roger

Who can have the highest bounty of all time other than the Pirate King Gol D. Roger himself? This legendary man conquered the seas, led his crew to the laughing tale, and found the legendary treasure “One Piece”. And he is the only person to do it so too. He became the Pirate King after achieving all of this with his mightiest powers and the fun fact is he is not a devil-fruit user. He mastered allthree forms of Hakiand rose up in powers. This man is the epitome of greatness all over and he deserves the whopping bounty for his heroic status.

2. Edward Newgate (Whitebeard)

Edward Newgate who is popularly known as Whitebeard was regarded as the Strongest Man on the planet. He had the powerful paramecia type Gura Gura no Mi devil fruit which is fearsomely considered as the fruit which can destroy the entire world. Apart from this, Whitebeard also mastered all forms ofHakiand can use it flawlessly. This man was the direct rival to the Pirate King and that shows his levels clearly. Hence, the second-highest bounty was rightfully given to our iconic Whitebeard.

3. Kaido

While Whitebeard was considered the Strongest man on the planet, similarly Kaido of the beasts was regarded as the Strongest Creature on the planet. It is said that“On a 1 on 1 battle, you should always bet for Kaido”which proves the ultimate powers he possessed. He was one of the four emperors of the sea and was fearsomely reputed across the seas. Kaido’sUo Uo no Mi, Model: Seiryuis an extremely rare and powerful devil fruit and additionally he knew to use all three types of haki too. He was also a former member of the almighty Rocks Pirates which further elevates his status and has the third-highest bounty of all time for now.

4. Charlotte Linlin (Big Mom)

Charlotte Linlin widely known as Big Mom is the only female character to become an emperor of the seas and possessed wicked powers at the palm of her hands. Like Kaido, she was also one of the former members of the Rocks Pirates and went on to earn a name for herself by starting Big Mom Pirates with her family. She ate theSoru Soru no Midevil fruit which gave her terrifying powers and she can use all three forms of Haki too. Trust us, nobody wants to mess with her because that’s how much strength she is, and has the fourth-highest bounty of all time for now.

5. Shanks

Akagami Shanks is the most powerful emperor currently after the defeat of Kaido and Big Mom by the worst generation of pirates. He was a former member of the Legendary Roger Pirates, and just like his former crew, he started the Red Hair Pirates crew with no devil fruit users. Shanks isn’t a devil fruit user but he is the extremely overpowered Haki user now. He has mastered all the forms of haki and even unlocked a new form which earned him the title “Killer of Observation Haki”. He made an admiral run for his life with his conqueror’s haki even though when he was very far away. Undoubtedly, Shanks is the real big deal now and has the fifth-highest bounty of all time befittingly.

6. Marshall D. Teach (Blackbeard)

Marshall D. Teach, infamously known as the Blackbeard, is one of the main antagonists of the show. Leader of theBlackbeard Pirates, he is an emperor of the seas and a former warlord. Although we haven’t seen much of him in action, he sure has mysterious powers that enabled him to consume two devil fruits and broke the rules of nature. He now holds two devastating powers of two OP devil fruits and he has the ability to perform the two forms of haki too. This easily makes him one of the most terrifying villains we have seen so far and thoroughly deserves this large sum of bounty. It is worth noting that he rose up to this position in the list of highest bounties as he poses a very great threat to humanity now more than anyone.

7. Dracule Mihawk

Dracule Mihawk is theWorld’s Strongest Swordsmancurrently. He was known as Marine Hunter previously and worked for the world government as a warlord of the sea. He is the main rival of our supreme Shanks and is one of the most important characters of the show now. His swordsmanship skills are second to none and can use two forms of Haki too. With the rise of a new organization called the Cross Guild, he partnered with Buggy and Crocodile. Due to him being the most dangerous person in this organization, the world government has issued a staggering 7th highest bounty for his head.

8. Buggy

Buggy the clown has to be the luckiest character in the show because no matter how hard the situation he is in, he always emerges as a big character in the end. He was a former member of the Roger Pirates along with Shanks. He is the captain of the Buggy Pirates and became one of the warlords of the sea. After the world government put an end to the warlord system, he started the Cross Guild Organization along with Mihawk and Crocodile. He even became their leader accidentally and that raised his value to a whole new level resulting in him becoming one of the emperors of the sea and getting a gigantic bounty for his head. He has the 8th highest bounty in One Piece now and don’t you forget about his devil fruit powers which can become instantly OP if it gets awakened.

9. Monkey D. Luffy

Note:The three main stars of the worst generation of pirates who are Law, Luffy, and Kid now have an equal bounty of 3 billion berries for each. If you’re wondering why they have the same bounties the answer is a simple one. If you add the bounties of Kaido and Big Mom you will have nearly 8.9 billion berries and if you combine these three stars’ bounties you will have 9 billion berries exactly. This was a little clever move from the author Eiichiro Oda.

Monkey D. Luffy has been making breakthrough after breakthrough ever since he set out on his pirate journey. At the end of the Arlong Park arc, Luffy got a tiny bounty of 30,000,000 berries. But from then he went on to get a gigantic bounty of 3,000,000,000 Berries now at the end of the Wano Country arc which is 100x than his first-ever bounty. Luffy continues to grow greatly in terms of powers and he is literally in his peak form with his Gear Five. With a new war breaking out in Egghead Island now, we are sure that Luffy’s bounty is going to skyrocket all the way up again. Luffy has the 9th-highest bounty now but we can assure you that he is going to have the all-time highest bounty soon.

10. Trafalgar D. Water Law

Trafalgar D. Water Law is the captain of Heart Pirates and ever since he formed an alliance with Luffy, this pirate crew duo sure damaged the higher powers in the new line and even dethroned two Emperors of the sea along with Kid. Law started out with a 200,000,000 Berries bounty which was super great for a rookie and now after defeating the Emperors, he has gone all the way up to an enormous bounty of 3,000,000,000 Berries. Law along with his crew are fighting another Emperor, Blackbeard now and we just can’t wait to see the result of this legendary battle. If luck falls on Law’s side, his victory can boost his bounty even higher for sure.

11. Eustass Kid

Eustass Captain Kid leads the Kid Pirates and was also considered the worst generation of pirates like Luffy and Law. He also started out with a big bounty of 315,000,000 berries and now after aiding the Straw Hats and Samurai during the raid on Onigashima, his bounty is equal to that of Law and Luffy. Together with Law, he defeated the scary Big Mom who was also an emperor of the sea which gave him a bounty of 3,000,000,000 Berries now. Kid has arrived at the Elbaf Island and let us wait to see what awaits him there.

12. Crocodile

Crocodile was the first villain who completely obliterated Luffy at the beginning of the show. He was an Ex-warlord and the president of the criminal organization Baroque Works. His devil fruit powers are absolutely versatile and dangerous too as he can suck the water out of every living thing and even an entire island.

After joining the Cross Guild, now he has the 12th-highest bounty of all time in One Piece.

She was just 8 years old when the World Government set a gigantic 79,000,000 Berries bounty on her head and coined her the Demon of Ohara. Thus, she acquired the moniker “Devil Child.”

Robin is one of only two persons in the entire world who can read the Poneglyphs and has one of thestrongest devil fruits, the Hana Hana no Mi.
