10. Crocodile – 1,965,000,000 Berries
The infamous Sir Crocodile, known as the “Desert King,” opens the top 10. His bounty of almost 2 billion berries reflects his dangerous return after a season in Impel Down. Crocodile, who was the first major villain faced by Luffy in Alabasta, is now a member of the Cross Guild, commanded by a Yonko.
9. Monkey D. Luffy, Trafalgar Law, and Eustass Kid – 3,000,000,000 Berries each
The captains of the Pirate Alliance share the ninth position, with equal bounties of 3 billion berries each. Luffy, Law, and Kid are considered equally dangerous by the Marines. Although many question the equality between them, as Luffy defeated a Yonko “alone” while Law and Kid had to unite against another, the threat they represent is undeniable. Law possesses the powerful Ope Ope no Mi fruit, capable of granting immortality, which further increases his value to the World Government.
8. Buggy the Clown – 3,189,000,000 Berries
Buggy may seem like a surprise, but his high bounty is due to a serie of fortunate circumstances. Initially a Shichibukai, Buggy gained notoriety during the escape from Impel Down and by revealing his connection to the former Pirate King. The creation of the Cross Guild and his rise to Yonko status consolidated his position as one of the most wanted pirates.
7. Dracule Mihawk – 3,590,000,000 Berries
Known as “Hawk Eyes,” Mihawk is the greatest swordsman in the world and Zoro’s former mentor. His bounty reflects his immense skill and the danger he poses, having been a Shichibukai until the system’s dissolution. Interestingly, Mihawk is considered part of Buggy’s crew, although his bounty is higher than the “captain” himself.
6. Marshall D. Teach – 3,996,000,000 Berries
Blackbeard is one of the most treacherous and ambitious pirates in One Piece. Possessing two of the most powerful Devil Fruits, the Yami Yami no Mi and Gura Gura no Mi, Teach quickly rose in piracy, from Shichibukai to Yonko. His journey, marked by betrayal and relentless pursuit of power, justifies his high bounty.
5. Shanks the Red – 4,048,900,000 Berries
Shanks is one of the most respected and feared Yonko, known for his skill with Haki and his ability to prevent wars with just his presence. A former apprentice of Gol D. Roger, Shanks has a deep connection with Luffy, being the initial inspiration for his dream of becoming the Pirate King.
4. Charlotte Linlin – 4,388,000,000 Berries
Big Mom, a former Yonko and leader of the Charlotte family, ruled Totto Land with an iron fist. Her ability with the Soru Soru no Mi fruit makes her a formidable opponent. Defeated by Law and Kid, her bounty still remains among the highest, reflecting her power and danger.
3. Kaido – 4,611,100,000 Berries
Known as “Kaido of the Beasts,” Kaido was practically indestructible, with the ability to transform into a giant dragon. His desire to create a war that would shake the world and his army of pirates with artificial Devil Fruits consolidated his position. Although rumored dead, his immense bounty is still remembered.
2. Edward Newgate – 5,046,000,000 Berries
Whitebeard, the strongest man in the world, possessed the Gura Gura no Mi fruit, capable of creating earthquakes. His death marked the end of an era, but his legacy and colossal bounty continue to inspire pirates around the world.
1. Gol D. Roger – 5,564,800,000 Berries
At the top of the list is the legendary Gol D. Roger, the only one to conquer the Grand Line and discover the One Piece. His bounty reflects his ability to change the world and inspire new generations of pirates. His execution marked the beginning of the Great Pirate Era, and his dream continues to drive pirates like Luffy.
