I think just a small race is appropriate regardless of luffys threat being worth 'only' 300 mil. Otherwise it is like nothing happened since his last bountie race. Would the people in OP accept this (like the Tenryubito). And what about the fans?
The Crew's Bounty

666,000,050 is an option I can see Oda doing .

@No:
666,000,050 is an option I can see Oda doing .
Why would he do that?
-
Luffy HAS to have a gigantic bounty (im guessing atleast 900 million).
When you look at all the stuff hes done, that adds up.
But the main increase of his bounty that im guessing, is look at how many different people are sacrificing their well being just so he can live? Obviously the WG are going to think "hmm, if all of these people were willing to sacrifice themselves for Strawhat, hes definitely going to be a gigantic threat in the future."
Ace, the cause of this war, took the punch for Luffy so he wouldnt die.
Jinbei repeatedly claims hes willing to die for him (yes, its gotten kind of old though), and hes taken a ton of damage to protect him.
Ivankov and Inazuma has done a ton just to protect him.
Every single one of the Whitebeard pirates are sworn to protect him, and want to send him to the new age at all costs.
Law
Hancock
Kuma (before the war though, hes continually spared Luffy)
Aokiji has spared him in the past
Garp let Luffy get to ace.
Buggy has indirectly helped him several times
Mr. 3 has helped him
And all of those other people who have gone way out of their way for Luffy.
I doubt the WG will just blow all of this off, especially since hes the Dragon's son.
-
To be honest, I don't see the point of bounties as a plot device anymore. Before, it made for some pretty cool moments when opponents would go "omg he's actually worth that much?"
But now Luffy's no longer the underdog. The world knows what potentials he has. No matter how big a bounty he has, there won't be any surprises. It would be smart if Oda just does "Wanted - Dead or Alive - Price negotiable"

He's definately still an underdog. This last arc proves it.
Plus there's a reason all the SNs are refered to as "rookies." Everyone in the New World is assumed to be stronger than the SHs.I mean, other than Shanks, do you honestly think the Yonkou actually care about any of the stuff Luffy has done, or the fact he's Dragon's son?
Luffy still has a long way to go.
-
No, I don't mean that Luffy is strong already. You misinterpreted my post.
"The world knows what potentials he has". He's no longer the "who the hell is that?" He is now the "son of Dragon, brother of Ace, etc". He's no longer a nobody so bounty is quite unnecessary and likely won't have any impact on the plot at all.
Edit: And yes, everyone cares that he's the son of Dragon. It's inevitable that they care. It's the difference between a no-name and a branded product. The branded product may suck, but it's branded and that's bound to fool a lot of people.
-
He is going to the NW maybe the pirates and people over there dont know him and he becomes an underdog once again.
-
Unless you're suggesting that the world-broadcasting was not extended to the New World, I don't see what you're getting at.
-
@De:
Why would he do that?
Can you imagine the reactions of his crew when they learn they have a cumulative worth equal to Luffy's ? Heck , I think Oda could make it 50 belli more just to strengthen the effect . :ninja:
-
Im going with 800.000.000 since 900 Million isn't listed in the poll.
After each greater Incident Luffy's Bounty tripled so far. It's only logical that it will be the same this time ;) -
Unless you're suggesting that the world-broadcasting was not extended to the New World, I don't see what you're getting at.
Well i don't think the 'world'-broadcasting was seen everywhere in the new world well defenetly not on the pirateships. I don't know what could be seen in the NW but I am sure Oda can keep the bounties alive.
-
I think bounties will be thrown out the window.
Otherwise there will be a string of new bounties for everyone at the war
And what bounty would you give the Legendary pirates in blackbreard's crew??
Bounties would just mess everything up i think now -
@No:

Well yeah but would the WG think like that? 400mil would get some nice reactions too and a +50 bounty looks strange.
I think the chance of the crew getting higher bounties are almost as high as luffys bounty going up. The WG knows for sure that chopper is a threat worth more than 50 beli.
If this happens luffys bountie would become weird. -
I think that we will see Luffy's last bounty or second last.
-
What about Chopper, anyone think after Sentomaru and Kizaru witnessed his Monster form, he will be getting a well deserved bounty of over 50 Million??
-
What about Chopper, anyone think after Sentomaru and Kizaru witnessed his Monster form, he will be getting a well deserved bounty of over 50 Million??
No. In his monster form, Chopper wasn't in control and was nothing more than a beast, thus he'll remain being seen as a pet, a pet who can turn into a monster. A mindless animal is not a threat to the WG, since we dont see them placing bounties on sea kings and stuff
-
What about Chopper, anyone think after Sentomaru and Kizaru witnessed his Monster form, he will be getting a well deserved bounty of over 50 Million??
the thing about that though, he didnt really do THAT much damage before Kuma blew him away.
He just looked super scary and did a tiny bit of damage.
but im sure the WG all knows that hes not worth 50 beli.
-
Well monster Chopper did shit in that fight so I doubt it. Maybe a proper low bounty. I still hope for a proper Sanji poster but that would kill the comedy xD
Maybe at the end. But to be honest besides Luffy I can't see any new bounty. Maybe they will get bounties cuz they have done some shit in their way back to SA
-
Knowing everything that Luffy did to those marines I don't even think that the sum of the SH's Bounties would be enough to explain how "dangerous" he is…
I think bounties will be thrown out the window.
^Seconded
WG is still pretty messed up right now… so I guess they would be busy with other stuff for a while... (all thanks to BB) other than bounties. -
The World Government is a global organisation , not a garden party comitte from Susex . They most likely people to take care of this kind of thing .
Not to mention it's aparently marines who issue bounties . The posters say "Wanted" , have a Marine logo on them and there was that guy when Luffy got his first bounty whose name just eludes me for the present .
-
on top of all of this.
I doubt Oda will just get rid of bounties for the strawhats all together, some of my all time favorite parts in the whole Manga was that adrenaline rush whenever they all got new bounties, or whenever people recognized the strawhats cause of their bounties.
Like Bellamy for example, that had to have been one of the best parts in the whole manga/anime, since they didnt believe their bounties were so high.
I doubt Oda will just throw stuff like that out the window, the bounty aspect of the strawhats add to the epicness of the whole series.
-
Okay… I mean the marines will be too busy to issue out bounties...
and if they're going to give out new bounties because of the whole incident... that's a lot of people involved... and it isn't like in EL ... so I guess everyone should get a higher bounty just by being involved.
Higher bounty for Buggy... yey!
-

I dont see why they WOULDNT have time.
Theres probably people who issue out bounties in the marines for a living.
And on top of that, im sure the Strawhats, Blackbeard Pirates, and all of those other guys are a big enough threat that a bounty is going to be issued out.
Its probably not that hard for them to think of a number and make x copies of the poster then send them out everywhere.
-
^ok :happy: you say so…
I just can't wait to see all of their bounties after everything...
-
Brandnew , that's the guys name .
-
I personally think that if Luffy gets any increase, it'll probably result in him losing his bounty. I mean, we haven't see Whitebeards, Shanks, Kaidos, Dragons, etc bounty, probably because they're so strong that it'd be impossible for anyone (even for an Admiral and a fleet of Vice Admirals) to take them down to claim it. Proof is Gol D. Roger giving himself up, but the Marines claimed they captured him to save face, instead of telling the world that a dying man gave himself up just for fun.
But I highly doubt Luffy will get such a large increase, I mean, as people stated, he hasn't done all that much in the last few arcs. Escaped Impel Down with help (Shiki escaped alone, and without help), fighting in the war against the World Government alongside Whitebeards crew (and promptly got his ass handed to him in every actual fight), and that's ultimately all that he's done. Now, he DID punch out Garp (even though he threw that fight), so he could get a bounty increase, and he was unveiled as Dragon's son, but all in all, he's done nothing of note besides punching out Garp, so I highly doubt he'll get much of an increase, if at all.
-
But the thing thats significant is how many people were willing to give up their lives so he could live, this should result in a large bounty increase because of the obvious potential he has.
And as for the higher ups bounty, I just think Oda hasnt shown any of them yet.
-
It'd would be odd if Oda just scraps the bounties but it does seem like it's going to get pretty meaningless after this. Everyone involved in this war should get a huge boost to their bounty - and who knows what the other Straw Hats are up to now that may boost their own bounties - but the problem is, it'll start to kind of get meaningless and lose context. You'll have everyone involved in Marineford with, potentially, 600,000,000 or more and everyone else will just look pathetic by comparison.
Eustass Kid was recently introduced (in One Piece time) with his 315,000,000 bounty and that was the highest known active bounty in OP and was meant to imply he may even be stronger than Luffy. If everyone gets a big boost to their bounty now - including Trafalgar Law - Kid will seem smalltime by comparison which'll kind of undermine the reason for his introduction.
So what I think might happen is that the new bounty announcements will be delayed until they arrive, or are close to arriving, in the New World.
-
I would love to see it doubled!!!!
So yeah 600.000.000 please!
-
First wait for the end of the arc we dont know wtf is going to happen with the marines, and wtv happens they wont be thinking of bountys for a while i think.
-
A billion seems a bit too much, I mean, the highest bounty we've seen so far is only 340million which belongs to Doflamingo. And pirates with over a hundred million are already deemed as a huge threat in the OP world…
I don't really think Luffy will get another raise already even though he did do some crazy stuff in this arc. -
200.000.000-315.000.000 is High Bounty Rookies… not High Bounty New World Pirates.

Actually, that wasn´t meant to imply that, because Shakky commented on it and told us (the readers and Luffy) Kid´s bounty was that high only because of civilian casualties… (I mean he´s probably strong enough, but as we already know : bounty doesn´t necessarily equal power)
I won´t vote, because I´m not sure how things will develop after this. Too many factors to be taken into consideration imo...
@ People call me E : I do understand your arguments. You really do have some points, but as you yourself said it : it´s a shounen. Not only that, it´s also a story. And it´s based on Real Life.
The bounties at low levels really have a point, you surely must admit that!
But as you said, there´s a unoccupied niche in the higher levels (even the bounty hunters of Saobady didn´t have a chance - and they are at the end of the grand line!).
I think the high bounties are pointers for the Shichibukai and like other people said, for other marines as well.
And to answer your question, it´s not totally senseless. People are just like that, they pay attention to the higher numbers... Just having lists and "Wanted" posters wouldn´t cut it...I really hope there are some powerful bounty hunters in the NW, but we can´t really be sure...
And you really don´t have to engage with so much tenacity in this argument... people will hang to their opinions - in this case cuz OP would just be a bit more boring without bounties (I think you agree with me on that =P).
And the pirates would still get famous even without the bounties, since their misdeeds would get known all over the world, one way or another! -
well since luffy has caused alot of trouble its going pretty high 900 mill to 1 bill makes sense but i think thats a bit to high maybe like 700 mill also bb probably over 1 bill maybe around 1.2-1.5 bill
-
I believe that after the latest events has calmed reasonable and the WG and the Marines has, once again, secured their position somewhat, that Luffy will gain a New World Bounty: 1 billion.
While Luffy isn't in the tier of the Shichibukai and certainly not with the Yonkous and the Admirals, he has shown, once again, that he stirrs up trouble for the Marines wherever he goes. Akainu has been gunning for Luffy for some chapters now, and as Luffy will (certainly) escape, Akainu will most likely push for actions towards Luffy.
The Marines, and indirect the WG, has taken some hits during this war, but they are far from done. Sengoku may fall, but Akainu will step up in that case and maintain the world's belief in absolute justice. There is no way that the Marines will fall this early during the story, they will still be a strong force to oppose pirates and so the bounty system will remain.
-
Remember, the Shicki bounties have been frozen for some time now, 340 million isn't Flamingos bounty, it's his previous bounty, and judging how young they were when the Shickis were formed, they could easily have quadrupled what they have now. Only Kuma and Jinbei weren't that young
-

Also it is not like the marines are targeting high bounty has one of the Warlords. They won't offer it to Kid, even if he had 500.000.000 bounty cause he attacking civilians too much. Will not offer it to anyone too powerful on world scale. Think about one of the Emperors becoming Warlord too.
So yea I think that the ex-bounty of Warlords are some crappy ones that the Marines gave them while they were still Rookies and shortly later invited them.
-
600KK
The rest of the rookies like bonney law kidd or whoever you think is important will leap to the 400KK region.
-
900kk at least, which is also why l'm glad Oda never gave roger or dragon or anyone big bounty, it changes with time.
Enels 500kk will look like nothing compared to luffys new bounty.
-
Just in case this hasn't been mentioned before, you do realize that, judging by Shakki's comments, Rayleigh may have a 30 billion beli bounty on his head (bottom panel of the pic below):
If this is so, 1 billion for Luffy is peanuts in the New World.
Considering the outrageous things Luffy has done since his last bounty increase, 1 billion is the very least i think he'll get, but i wouldn't be surprised if he got 2 billion for 2 reasons:
1 - he's Dragon's son
2 - he punched a TenryuubitoThough, for some, him breaking into Impeldown might be worse then this, or even his actions @ the war, i think the WG value these 2 reasons much more.

I took that as a general jap saying of your 100 years to young to defeat me, basically saying there is no way your as strong as him, not bounty level

I agree with ElementNick, that couldn't have referred to bounty. However, I do believe Luffy's next bounty will be excess of 1 Billion.
Lets see, the highest bounty we had seen prior to Grand Line was Arlongs at 20 Million. Immediately after entering grand line we saw a four times increase in bounty.
IDK why but I always felt that the transition from GL first half to new world can be compared to transition from any other Blue to GL. If this is indeed true then Billion bounty shouldn't be uncommon in NW…
-
If Luffy's bounty will raise up, up to 500+++ He should be a Younko instead.
Correct me if I'm wrong. Dragon's (the most wanted person) bounty hasn't been introduced and the highest bounty I've seen so far in OP is 400+ and that was DoFlamingo.
I would say he'll get 350 or 400.
-
He wont have a bounty from now on. He will be in the most wanted list.
There is no point in having a high bounty because very high bounty=> Powerful+dangerous=>not many people can catch him=> people who can catch him are either shichibukai level (or) other most wanted pirates (or) admirals.
-
B800,000,000 - B1,000,000,000
Shabondy
Tenrybuto
Impel Down
The war
Will of D (threat to gov)…..Could justify the above.

You are wrong. DoFlamingo's bounty was like 340 Million. You've been corrected.

This post is deleted!

but that was when it was frozen surely if he went rouge ue on them theyd raise his bounty cause hes gotten stronger and is more wll connected
-
You are wrong. DoFlamingo's bounty was like 340 Million. You've been corrected.
Oh I see thanks for that. I thought it was around 415 Million. So basically the greatest amount of bounty that we've seen so far in the OP world is 340 Million.
