The new cope is that Cross Guild gave Mihawk his bounty even though it didn't exist before Mihawk joined.
do people really think Mihawk have 3. + bounty way before all of this shit happens?
bruh Buggy and croc got a huge lift with their bounty, along with some yonko tittle, and we still didn't even know what happen why they got huge boost like that .
but one thing for sure, like buggy and croc. Mihawk doesn't Have 3 b bounty pre wano arc. you're fooling yourself if you think so.
