Questions & Mysteries Aokiji vs Shiryu bounty bet thread

[ShishioIsBack]

I could see two sides to the Aokiji argument.

On the one hand, he could be seen as a massive threat to the WG because he knows their secrets like you said,

On the other hand, they may not consider him a huge threat since, as a former Marine, would Aokiji ever truly harm the Marines/the Government like other Pirates might? Would Aokiji ever attack/harm civilians like other Pirates might? These things aren’t necessarily within his character…idk.

If Mihawk was perceived as Cross Guild’s leader, I think his bounty would be 4.8-5.3 billion

Honestly the idea of Aokiji joining the very Pirate who has caused Marines the biggest chaos in recent history..is already an indicator of Aokijis ill intentions isn't it??

Like he didn't join your friendly neighborhood Yonko like Shanks..he chose the one giving marines most trouble next to Straw hats and Cross Guild.

Unless of course Aokiji is still associated with Marines in some capacity..he's their spy..then they'll put a moderate bounty on him to make his job a bit more peaceful.

As of now I think they’ll just issue him a real bounty and won’t deflate it based on his history with the Marines, but it’s still tough to say.

strength is clearly not the only thing that made Kaido an emperor

It was his crew
Fleet
Being a pirate for 30 years

Simply if Mihawk took that yonko title instead of giving it to Buggy his bounty would be 5 billion at least

Kaido if he wasn't a yonko would have like 2.5 billion bounty at most

It's stated in both the manga and Vivre Card ( I believe) that Kaido became an Emperor due to his strength, and his strength alone.

Not really disputable. So there is a discrepancy here. Mihawk strength has not afforded him the Emperors title, while Kaido's did.

Your argument is Buggy is a Yonko because of Mihawks strength, which is just your opinion, as many people also attribute Crocodile into that equation. The manga tells us, that Kaido became a Yonko because of his strength. Even if it gets confirmed Buggy became a yonko because of Mihawks strength, Kaido still has the more favorable argument.

Its not
Read the manga chapter where his bounty got revealed.

He was never an emperor by himself without his crew lol

He got his crew well before he became an emperor.

He wasn't even an emperor when he was fighting Oden.

He earned the respect of people around him with strength, meaning the respect of King/Queen etc
Just like any other character earn their way to whatever title through strength. With Yonko you can be a complete meme like Buggy and still reach the rank or earn your way through strength, Kaido did nothing special really. It's not like Shanks gathered this strong crew by giving them candy.

And this yonko strength doesn't have to be extraordinary like Admirals/WSS, all you need to be is strong enough to gather people who are strong too and call it a crew.

Pretty simple really. If Shiryu does become Zoro's opponent next or in the future, and Aokiji is still a Blackbeard Pirate member at that time, then Shiryu will 100% have a bounty higher than him. If not then Aokiji will probably have higher one, an admiral turned pirate will deffo have a high bounty

If Kuzan has a bounty, it would be stupid if Kuzan's bounty isn't beyond the WG trio, forget about Shiryu. It'll be 2X whatever Shiryu's bounty is. I doubt Shiryu's bounty is above post-WCI Luffy's.

What has he done exactly to deserve a high bounty. I doubt he has any but if he does 2 b maybe. Hes not really a pirate other than this BBP hoax

He just massacred an island…
He was one of the greatest powers of the marines…
Hes allies himself with an emperor of the sea who’s been hunting power users
