With King confirmed at 1,39 and Queen known to be at 1,32 this is now officially the smallest gap we've had between YC's of the same crew.
No, this is not only comparing the top two of any crew, i'm including here gaps between YC2 and YC3 as well as YC3 and YC4's.
This was expected since King's and Queen's introduction when Oda goes out of his way to position them on an entirely different level of portrayal in contrast to Jack.
This also goes to show that the "YC1, YC2, YC3, YC4" is often misused by the community to discuss expected strength gaps between characters, with them basically using the dynamic of Big Mom's crew to model their expectations.
The Beast Pirates clearly have an entirely different dynamic, which was showcased through out the manga with how King and Queen have been positioned and used alongside eachother, and is also further supported by the reveal of King's bounty.
For the BM Pirates, the significant bounty gap is between Katakuri and Smoothie, and it's almost 2x higher than the gap separating Smoothie and Cracker. Oda makes it clear through Katakuri's portrayal that he's on another level than the other two.
For the Beast Pirates, the incredibly significant bounty gap is between Queen and Jack, and it's almost a whole 5x higher than the gap separating King and Queen. Oda makes it clear through King and Queen's portrayal that they are on another level than Jack
As of now, the highest YC bounties in the manga range between 1,3 and 1,4 bil, and belong to Marco, King and Queen.
Put some respect on my boy Queen's name for hanging with the best of them :queenhear:
And ditch the BM's crew dynamic as a rule that applies to every other crew. It clearly does not

That said I think wb top trio will compress that difference even further and their strength will be very similar too. Vista and Jozu are easily Marco level. Wouldn't be surprised if the two also have 1.3x bounty.
For me Queen Marco King are in the same ball park with an extreme diff fight between them.
