[Therefir]

Imagine beating a Yonko, taking their territory, having an even bigger influence than him, being the wielder of one of the most dangerous Devil Fruit in the world.

Only to be given a lower bounty than him.

 

[GodlyCharmander]

Disappointing bounties, tbh

 

[Magmag]

Oda…oda man…

 

[Mr.Cinos15]

Wait where are the bounties shown?

 

[Magmag]

Wait where are the bounties shown?

Nah, but “leakers”(idk if they’re trustworthy) said that none of the bounties surpassed the yonkos. I still have hope but who knows. Oda lowkey selling in 2022.

 

[Mr.Cinos15]

Oh, so we don't even know the numbers. Just wait lol.

 

[Magmag]

Oh, so we don't even know the numbers. Just wait lol.

Yeah ik, I’m waiting but my hopes are low(better than having high hopes)

 

[DemonGodMitchAubin]

Luffy not surpassing Kaidou’s bounty is really weird

Like by all means, Luffy’s earned it

 

[Bummel]

Dunno man kurohige bounty is small too

 

[Damage3245]

Blackbeard killed Whitebeard and he didn't suprass Whitebeard in bounty.

 

[SnookB]

That thread got locked, so I assume the spoilers are fake-
If Greenbull looks like Yoshio Harada then it's gotta be the younger one, since he looks like he has somewhat long air and all-

 

[SnookB]

Blackbeard killed Whitebeard and he didn't suprass Whitebeard in bounty.

But that was very publicly underhanded, though- everyone saw him steal the kill and deal the death blow. CP0 had to have told'em that Luffy straight fought Kaido and won. Then the whole Nika thing being such a massive deal.. Yeah, if the bounty is anything lower than 3B I'll be slightly disappointed

 

[Magmag]

Blackbeard killed Whitebeard and he didn't suprass Whitebeard in bounty.

Well considering every single Marine in history saw who did all the work and they simply saw BB swoop by and snag the most dangerous DF.

 

[Bummel]

Blackbeard killed Whitebeard and he didn't suprass Whitebeard in bounty.

Well this feats can be denied for higher bounty(since shiro already dying and kurohige beat the shit out of him with his team to finish him)
Though kurohige get wb power and his own fruit + 2 years of timeskip his bounty only 2million

 

[Darkvie123]

I saw some ppl also saying "Fujitora captured Mihawk" which I DOUBT HIGHLY theres no a Fujitora who got bruised from a G3 Dressrosa Luffy beat the Worlds Strongest Swordsman in the world who narratively is above Shanks + Fujitora is a swordsman too. This wouldn't make sense so im saying they are 100% fake spoilers about the Fuji vs Mihawk thing

 

[Magmag]

3B I'll be slightly disappointed

4.5B tbh, also gotta reread but didn’t the government agents literally see everything and tell the wg what happened and the announcement of Luffy beating Kaido, not everyone worked together type of announcement.

 

[DaMonkeMan]

I will be completely honest and raw with these following statements, as I want to provide some already made points that people have seemingly forgotten.
The straw-hat/heart/kidd pirates bounties being higher than the Yonko bounties would raise a lot of attention to them, and the fact they even beat the Yonko, infiltrated Wano, and "awakened JoyBoy" is already enough to get people hyped as ****. How ever, I feel like they're ( the World Government ) going to try extremely hard to cover up the Nika part, since a Yonko member has have been taken out before ( granted, Whitebeard kind of just gave up and let them kill him, because he knew he clearly wouldn't get out alive, and Ace had already died so he just decided to die and leave the fall of the marines and World Government to Luffy and others ) and that would be a problem to the World Government but not nearly as big a problem as Luffy and the army he's constantly amassing. But my point is, please stop saying that it's disappointing that the bounties aren't higher, because if they actually aren't that high, it'd really make sense giving how desperate and salty the WG is over the Wano war.

 

[Magmag]

Also something>bounties significance wise which is probably about greenbull.

 

[DaMonkeMan]

I saw some ppl also saying "Fujitora captured Mihawk" which I DOUBT HIGHLY theres no a Fujitora who got bruised from a G3 Dressrosa Luffy beat the Worlds Strongest Swordsman in the world who narratively is above Shanks + Fujitora is a swordsman too. This wouldn't make sense so im saying they are 100% fake spoilers about the Fuji vs Mihawk thing

How the hell would Fujitora beat Mihawk? But this reminds me, I wonder what happened to Hancock and Buggy.

 

[SnookB]

The only reason I can see them not suddenly increasing Luffy's bounty sky high is to devalue the significance of the situation intentionally so the world doesn't start freaking out. Keep it under wraps and all.

I just said that, but yeah, basically.

 

[Eminiteable]

The real reason is so he can have a bounty increase after defeating Shanks, if he's already surpassed him it would ruin the trend of Luffy's next major antagonist having a greater bounty than him.

 

[SnookB]

I just said that, but yeah, basically.

Right, sorry. I only noticed it after I wrote it!
But yeah- it's a tactically smart move tbh. Makes more sense than them just ignoring the fact that this is the biggest threat to (their) world

 

[SnookB]

The real reason is so he can have a bounty increase after defeating Shanks

I've seen loads of people say their "fight" will be a Davy back Fight-- and I dig it tbh.
DBF with Gear 5's wackiness sounds fun

I think that was a morj theory, so it probably won't happen

 

[DaMonkeMan]

lmfao
cruel but sadly true.
Is he still hanging on to his raid will fail stuff and the other theories?

 

[Eminiteable]

Nah

 

[SnookB]

I think that was a morj theory, so it probably won't happen

Morj's theories are just a jinx now- dang

 

[DemonGodMitchAubin]

Morj's theories are just a jinx now- dang

All his credit is out the window

 

[SnookB]

All his credit is out the window

All the Raid Failers and ZZKers lost their credit after this arc. Oof

 

[DaMonkeMan]

Morj is basically the new circus clown for the One Piece community. It must hurt for him to literally have to delete videos that he admittedly didn't really work hard for since it's just him regurgitating his very wrong theories, but it still took time to make the videos nonetheless. Just goes to show that you should accept when you're wrong and move on from some things.

 

[Darkvie123]

How the hell would Fujitora beat Mihawk? But this reminds me, I wonder what happened to Hancock and Buggy.

Coby captured Hancock somehow

 

[DaMonkeMan]

Coby captured Hancock somehow

Was never confirmed he did. But if Koby somehow manages to survive an entire tribe of women committing a violent sexist hate crime against him and beating him with haki then he actually should be an Admiral like he said back in Enies Lobby.

 

[Kurifesilon]

 

[Eseseso]

The bounties, man...

I mean I worship Oda but I still question some of his decisions.

Also still not looking forward to the month long hiatus until July

 

[Magmag]

How do y’all think buggy got emperor status?
Gag?
Only suitable option?
Actual credit?

 

[DaMonkeMan]

Probably a ton of *********** on the World Government, or he used his friendship with Shanks to get it, along with the fact that the government needed to make someone a yonko to try and steer away from all the stuff in Wano, as others have pointed out.

 

[Antvasima]

Blackbeard killed Whitebeard and he didn't suprass Whitebeard in bounty.

He had lots of help and Whitebeard was already half-dead though.

 

[SnookB]

I don't think he'd even want to be. The stars would just align and he'd ride that wave like a pro surfer because why NOT take all the credit and clout
