10 Biggest Bounties in One Piece, Ranked

Most of the bounties in One Piece are issued by the Marines for the World Government. The amount of the bounty is calculated by a department within the Marine Headquarters, which is currently run by Commodore Brannew, based on how much of a threat a particular figure is. If the person is discovered to be an even more significant threat, the bounty can be raised, which is what we’ve seen with the first two pirates on our list, Eustass Kid and Monkey D. Luffy. In addition, wanted posters are sent across the One Piece world to make everyone aware that a particular person is wanted and how dangerous they are based on the total bounty amount in Berry.

10. Eustass Kid – 3,000,000,000 Berry

He has had three bounties, with the highest being 3 billion Berry, giving him the tenth spot on this list.

Monkey D. Luffy, also known as Straw Hat, is the protagonist of One Piece and the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates. He dreams of finding Gol D. Roger’s legendary treasure, One Piece.
