List of One Piece bounties

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the pirate-themed anime/manga One Piece, numerous characters have bounties, which are listed here. In the eye of a pirate, a high bounty may actually be a source of pride for them, as seen in Luffy's enthusiasm on his first bounty, or a comparison of strength.

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

In the Whiskey Peak arc, the Baroque Works agents state that up to 30% of the bounty money may be lost by bringing in someone dead as opposed to bringing them in alive, as the government prefer to hang them in public in order to set an example.

The average bounty set by the World Government is 10-20 million Berry, as stated by one of the officers when announcing Luffy's bounty. It is important to remember that a bounty does not always reflect the strength of a person, as was confirmed by Oda himself in his SBS section. Simply doing criminal activities, associating yourself with certain groups or participating in forbidden activities (such as researching the Poneglyphs) can make you gain or increase a bounty without reflecting the strength of the person carrying it. In short, the bounty simply reflects how much threat (or potential threat) said person has to the World Government.[1]

One of the most mysterious things about wanted posters in One Piece is how the Navy is able to get hold of photos of each criminal. Oda later in one of his SBS later reveals the photos are taken by the Naval Photography Branch Captain "Flaming Attachan". Flaming Attachan apparently gets his name because before he closes the shutter he yells "Fire!". [2] The only exception to this rule seems to be from Mr. 13 and Ms. Friday who were used by the Navy recently to help draw bounty posters of remaining Baroque Works agents. In chapter 436, he was seen discussing with the Navy on the bounties. While he managed to get a photo of Nami by disguising as a reporter, the film that contains Sanji's photo failed to developed (he joked that he forgot to take off the lens cap).

The new bounties
The new bounties
Monkey D. Luffy
Nickname: "Straw Hat" Luffy (“麦わらのルフィ” Mugiwara no Rufi?)
  • First Bounty: At the end of the Arlong Park Arc, after Luffy defeated Arlong, the Straw Hats had beaten up the corrupt Navy captain Nezumi so he would return Nami's treasure. Nezumi, wanting revenge against Luffy, personally ensured a bounty of 30,000,000 Belli for him, giving him the highest bounty in East Blue.
  • Second Bounty: After defeating the Shichibukai Sir Crocodile and his organization Baroque Works, Luffy's bounty was raised to 100,000,000 Belli.
  • Third Bounty: After defeating Rob Lucci of CP9 and declaring war on the world government, Luffy's bounty was raised to 300,000,000[3] Belli, making his bounty the third highest known bounty so far, and the highest known bounty still standing.
Roronoa Zoro
Nickname: "Pirate Hunter" Zoro (“海賊狩りのゾロ” Kaizoku Gari no Zoro?)
  • First Bounty: The swordsman of the Straw Hat Crew, he received a 60,000,000 Belli bounty after he defeated the assassin Das Bones (Mr. 1) in the Alabasta Arc and for defeating at least 100 bounty hunters in Whiskey Peak.
  • Second Bounty: After the events at Enies Lobby, Zoro's bounty was raised to 120,000,000 Belli[3].
Nico Robin
Nickname: "Demon Child" Nico Robin (“悪魔の子”ニコ・ロビン "Akuma no Ko" Niko Robin?)
  • First Bounty: Nico Robin has a 79,000,000 Belli bounty from 20 years ago, assigned to her when she was only eight years old. It is claimed that she sunk 6 ships, but in the Enies Lobby arc it is revealed as nothing more than a lie from the government. The real reason behind her bounty is her ability to read Poneglyphs, saying that her existence is a crime.
  • Second Bounty: After the events at Enies Lobby, Robin's bounty was raised to 80,000,000 Belli[3]. Also, her wanted poster has a new photo of her.
Sanji
Nickname: "Sanji of the Black Leg" (“黒足のサンジ” Kuroashi no Sanji?)
  • After the events at Enies Lobby, Sanji received a bounty of 77,000,000 Belli[3]. However, the World Government failed to get a proper photo of him, and instead used an ugly composite.
Franky
Nickname: "Iron man" (Cyborg) Franky (“鉄人”フランキー “Tetsujin” Furanki?)
Franky's new bounty
Franky's new bounty
  • Due to burning of Pluton's blueprint, assisting of Straw Hats, and subsequent escape from Enies Lobby, Franky received 44,000,000 Belli bounty[3]. Due to this bounty, his family forced him to join the Straw Hats.
Usopp (as Sogeking)
Nickname: "King of Snipers" Sogeking (“狙撃の王様”そげキング "Sogeki no Ōsama" Sogekingu?)
  • For burning the World Government flag and going against CP9, Sogeking received a bounty of 30,000,000 Belli. [3]. However, it should be noted that it is Usopp's alias, Sogeking, that has the bounty; Usopp, himself, does not have one.
Nami
Nickname: "Burglar Cat" Nami (“泥棒猫”ナミ "Dorobō Neko" Nami?)
  • After the events at Enies Lobby, Nami received a bounty of 16,000,000 Belli[3].
  • She was tricked into posing for her Wanted Poster's picture by a Navy photographer who claimed to be working for a magazine.
Tony Tony Chopper
Nickname: "Cotton Candy Lover" Chopper [pet] (“わたあめ大好きチョッパー”[ペット] "Watāme Daisuki Choppā" [Petto]?)
  • For being the Straw Hats' "pet", Chopper received a bounty of 50 Belli[3]. Chopper was shocked that his bounty was so low as he believed he fought like a man.

[edit] The East Blue Bounties

Note: The average bounty for the East Blue is rated at only 3,000,000 Belli, making it the weakest sea in the One Piece world.

  • Higuma the Bear: 8,000,000 Belli bounty - bounty no longer stands as he was eaten by a Sea King.
  • Lady Alvida: 5,000,000 Belli bounty.
  • Buggy the Clown: 15,000,000 Belli bounty.
  • Captain Kuro: 16,000,000 Belli bounty - bounty no longer stands as Kuro faked his death to quit his life as a pirate.
  • Jango the Hypnotist: 9,000,000 Belli bounty - now a member of the Navy, his bounty most likely has been removed or 'forgotten'.
  • Pirate Admiral Don Krieg: 17,000,000 Belli bounty.
  • Saw-Tooth Arlong: 20,000,000 Belli bounty. This bounty would be much higher, except that Arlong was bribing the corrupt Captain Nezumi to help keep the Navy from actively pursuing him.
  • Mountain Whale Dick (anime only): 10,000,000 Belli bounty - bounty no longer stands, he was defeated by Roronoa Zoro who claimed his bounty.
  • Billy the Bandit: 5,000,000 Belli bounty (anime only) - bounty no longer stands, he was defeated by Roronoa Zoro, Johnny and Yosaku were allowed to claim the bounty.
  • Golass (from One Piece: The Movie) - 8,000,000 Belli bounty. A powerful swordsman who worked as a mercernary for El Drago. His bounty poster can be seen in Fullbody's ship when Luffy receives his bounty.

[edit] Estimated bounties

All these are officially given out by Oda during SBS, as a way to help indicate their level of threat.

  • Enel was said that he would have a bounty of over 500,000,000 Belli if he were a pirate [10]
  • It is said that if he were still actively wanted by the Navy, then by the Alabasta arc Sir Crocodile's attempt at taking over Alabasta would have least doubled his bounty amount. [11]

[edit] Unknown Bounties

[edit] Bounties not yet determined

The following characters have yet to have had bounties listed or a wanted poster shown in the series but most likely do have bounties on their head (or a former bounty in Mihawk's case).

  • Red-Haired Shanks: Shanks, who is one of Four Emperors, is monitored by the World Government as a possible threat to the balance of power in the world. They even consider killing him as a possible option should he get out of hand. As a member of the Yonkou, it is likely that he has an extremely high bounty.
  • Whitebeard (Edward Newgate): As the world's strongest man and a pirate who clashed with, but was not defeated by Gol D. Roger, it is most likely he is wanted. He is also one of the Four Emperors. As a member of the Yonkou, it is likely that he has an extremely high bounty.
  • Dracule "Hawkeye" Mihawk: As a member of the Shichibukai, Mihawk has a former bounty. The amount it was is still unknown as of yet, but as the world's greatest swordsman, it is most likely he is one of the stronger members of the Shichibukai with a very high former bounty.
  • Chef "Red Leg" Zeff: As a former Grand Line pirate he likely had a large bounty, but it could have been dropped after he lost his leg and opened the Baratie.
  • Monkey D. Dragon: In Loguetown, Captain Smoker says the government wants his head because he is a revolutionary. He has already caused numerous countries to fall. The World Government fears that in 2 or 3 years time he will be strong enough to be a threat to the world, and had labeled him the "World's Worst Criminal". Due to this proclamation, it is possible he has the highest bounty in One Piece, even if adjusted with inflation. Recently when he was officially introduced he was labeled "World's Most Wanted Criminal".
  • Jimbei: A Shichibukai who was once leader of what became Arlong's crew. It was stated that Arlong and Jimbei were equals, however Jimbei having a bounty of 20 Million is highly doubtful, and most likely refers to their status in fish-man rank. Another factor is that Arlong kept bribing the corrupt marine officer Nezumi in order to keep further interference from marines away. This would have led to that Arlong's bounty was never increased to equal his real level of threat.
  • Gecko Moria: A Shichibukai who has an ability that allows him to steal shadows. The precise amount of his bounty is unknown, but Nico Robin states it to be higher than Luffy's bounty of 300,000,000 Belli.
  • Gold Roger: It is unknown what amount the bounty was the late Pirate King carried before his death, but it was most likely huge, and on Whitebeard's level.
  • Portgas D. Ace: It is unknown how high his bounty is, but it should be quite high considering his position in the Whitebeard Pirates. In a filler episode, it was said to be enough to "make bounty hunters around the world drool".
