General & Others The Truth About Yonko Bounties

[SakazOuki]

From Ace's Novel:
"Ace and Deuce formed the Spade Pirates, and had taken the crew this far already. The captain's bounty was a reflection of that, an appraisal of all they'd done together". Here's the original text:

This is basically what Oda thinks of captain bounties, an accumulation of team effort.

 

[Rob Luffy]

The captain does 99.99% of the heavy lifting

 

[Cruxroux]

I have said that like multiple times already.
Luffy beating kata and getting 1.5 B makes no sense where Zoro beat 1.4B guy and got 1.1B.

And the same logic goes for his 3B.
Not worth it at all.

What makes captian dangerous is Their influence over strong people like kata / Benn /Shiryu / Zoro. And territory they have.

Only exception with bounty stuff is just Mihawk Plain strength bounty. That's why less than shanks.
If he had crew like Shanks. He would have crossed 5b billion already.

Was Luffy the fifth Emperor? You can say he was and wasnt. While he indeed didnt had the power to defeat or rival Pirates as Shanks, Big Mom, Teach or Kaido, he also was above Yc1 shown characters, maybe even above King.

And unlike them, he had alreary territories, a huge fleet with 7 strong Veteran Pirates in the new world, had his personal crew strong enough to also be Commanders and also had Robin. So he indeed was a real challenger for the One Piece just as any Emperor. So in status, Luffy was the the closest Pirate to an Emperor, he just lacked power.

Many times your bounty doesnt show your true worth, since Luffy after WCI should have a bigger bounty than 1.5 billion or above Boa and Crocodile, as he had more military power and could give them a decent fight. Luffy's bounty after WCI imo was just the reflection of his power and not his military power. Even after wano, his military power is not added, otherwise his bounty would had been bigger than Kidd and Law.

Luffy will get a bounty increase once he shows his full military power under him.

As you mention, captain's bounty shows the accumulation of all your achievments, territory, allies, military power, personal power, fame, intel, etc.

We see from the fans viewpoint where the yonko captains clear there crews.

I gave up on bounties in wano.

Ace's novel is not cannon but it more than clear that this is the case when Mihawk got 3,6 bi and Buggy 3,1 bi.

It is written by Oda word for word. It is canon as long as nothing contradicts the manga
I think it says his fame started after his duels with Mihawk, whatever it is nothing special to use in debates lol

 

[Sheer D. Lusion]

It is written by Oda word for word.

first volume is written by hinata shou and second volume is written by hamazaki tatsuya.

No.

It's canon.
The Boichi manga isn't canon.

 

[MonsterKaido]

In ace novel Kaido is above WB

 

[Herrera95]

It's canon.
The Boichi manga isn't canon.

Only manga is canon.

 

[Franosuke]

Oh no Shanksbros

 

[SkySanji]

Oda didn't write the novel so no, it isn't what he personally thinks, though whether or not it's canon is based on opinion.

Though if you're saying this is canon, then you have to agree that Kaido is the strongest alive at that time and also stronger than the Whitebeard that deaded Akainu in two hits.
