A '''bounty''' is a reward, usually [[Belly|monetary]], promised for the accomplishment of a certain task. In many contexts, and particularly [[World|the world of ''One Piece'']], it refers to the sum of money awarded for the capture and/or killing of [[pirate]]s, [[bandits]], [[Marines]] and other persons of interest.
   
 
==Overview==
  
==Overview==
  +
Most of the [[world]]'s bounties are issued by the [[World Government]]—via the [[Marines]]—with the intent of making the public aware of dangerous criminals, as well as encouraging civilians to help capture them. The specific amount of a given bounty is calculated by a special department within [[Marine Headquarters]] (currently headed by [[Brannew|Commodore Brannew]]), based on the perceived threat level of a given criminal; the lowest bounty ever given was {{B}}50 to Tony Tony Chopper while the highest more than {{B}}4,000,000,000.{{Qref|chap=95|ep=45|The [[East Blue]]'s bounties are reviewed, culminating in [[Monkey D. Luffy|Luffy]]'s first: {{B}}30,000,000, unheard-of for the area. The anime adds many extra bounty posters, some for non-[[canon]] characters.}} The highest-ever bounty in history belonged to [[Gol D. Roger]], with bounty hunters being promised {{B}}5,564,800,000 for his capture.{{Qref|chap=957|page=17|ep=958|Roger's bounty is revealed.}}
−
===Becoming Wanted===
  
−
Normally, a bounty is issued by a government official or by the police. The idea is to tempt others to aid with the capture of the criminal so they can be brought to justice quickly. [[Bounty hunters]] make careers trying to find and capture these wanted people. Bounties are issued with a "Dead or Alive" disclaimer, meaning the reward will be paid so long as the threat gets eliminated, but [[Baroque Works]] agents state that bounties are usually only paid in full if the criminal is captured alive; up to 30% of the bounty money may be lost by bringing in someone dead, since no public execution can be held.{{qref|name="30%"|chapter=107|episode=64|text=Mr. 8 mentions that up to 30% of a criminal's bounty can be retracted if they are brought in dead, not alive.}}
  
   
  +
The standard bounty is issued with a ''"Dead or Alive"'' clause, signifying that the criminal no longer has protection from the law and therefore can be killed without repercussion. This makes both live captures and confirmed kills eligible for the reward. However, according to [[Baroque Works]], authorities may detract up to 30% of a bounty if given a dead criminal, as they favor live captures for prison sentences and/or formal executions.{{Qref|chap=107|ep=64|Mr. 8 ([[Igaram]]) mentions that up to 30% of a criminal's bounty can be docked if they are brought in dead.}} Alternatively, an ''"Only Alive"'' clause has been knowingly (albeit temporarily) approved for [[Sanji|at least one individual]], due to political influence from a [[Germa 66|significant kingdom]] invested in his survival.
−
The amount of a bounty is determined in response to the perceived threat level of the criminal in question; the greater the threat to the world, the greater the bounty. In the eyes of a pirate, high bounties are thus usually seen as a sign of strength. After all, having been assigned a bounty means that the World Government as well as the Marines acknowledge the threat of the person to whom it is assigned. Luffy expresses enthusiasm over his first bounty, and Sanji likewise expresses disappointment when his own bounty poster fails to properly identify him (being a crude artist's rendering). This is not universal, however; [[Kuro]] resented his bounty due to the unwanted attention it brought him. A bounty in excess of {{B}}100,000,000 indicates that the person to whom it was assigned has committed unlawful acts of catastrophic degrees.
  
   
  +
Criminal organizations, such as pirate crews, typically only have bounties on their leaders or figureheads (eg. captains). However, larger organizations, in particular Four Emperors crews and more prominent pirate crews, will have bounties on some or all of their subordinates.
−
Earning a large bounty in a quick time also gives the pirate notorious attention and a global reputation. After earning a bounty of {{B}}80,000,000 in a single campaign, the World Government offered [[Boa Hancock]] a position in the [[Shichibukai]]. [[Marshall D. Teach|Blackbeard]] believed he could become a Shichibukai member if he defeated [[Monkey D. Luffy]], whose bounty had jumped from {{B}}30,000,000 to {{B}}100,000,000 following the defeat of [[Baroque Works]] and their leader [[Crocodile]]. Blackbeard would settle for achieving his goal by turning in [[Portgas D. Ace]] instead since Ace had caught up with him and Blackbeard emerged victorious.
  
   
  +
Bounties are not known to carry any [[Wikipedia:Statute of limitations|statute of limitations]]; even criminals that have remained inactive for over a century, such as [[Dorry]] and [[Brogy]], are viable as bounty heads as long as they have not been confirmed deceased.{{Qref|chap=118|page=15-16|ep=71|[[Galdino|Mr. 3]] states that the century-old {{B}}100,000,000 bounty on [[Dorry]] and [[Brogy]] remains active.}}
−
===Bounty Issuing===
  
−
A bounty reflects both the threat and power of an individual.{{qref|name="Bounty reflect"|chapter=320|episode=227|text="The size of your bounty does not only reflect the threat your combat abilities pose. It also gives to show how dangerous you are to the government"}} Engaging in activities deemed criminal by the World Government or associating with groups which engage in them is enough to warrant significant bounties even if the criminal is not powerful themselves. In particular, direct opposition to the World Government, no matter the reason, is treated as a serious offense, and bounties are issued accordingly.
  
   
  +
Certain circumstances may result in a bounty being frozen, rendering it temporarily inactive and shielding that person from judicial persecution. A notable example is having a membership in the [[Seven Warlords of the Sea]] (which extends to all explicit subordinates),{{Qref|chap=69|ep=31|[[Yosaku]] explains the Seven Warlords and their privileges.}}{{Qref|chap=713|ep=643|[[Issho|Fujitora]] reviews the arrest status of [[Caesar Clown]] (still acknowledged as [[Donquixote Doflamingo]]'s employee) and [[Trafalgar D. Water Law|Trafalgar Law]].}} as well as [[slavery]] under the [[World Noble]]s. However, if these circumstances are retracted for any reason, the bounty will automatically be reinstated — possibly even increasing — and re-legitimize arrest.{{Qref|chap=497|ep=391|[[Hatchan]] notes that [[Devil Dias]]—discarded and killed by [[Shalria|Saint Shalria]]—would have been arrested if he had survived.}}{{Qref|chap=956|ep=957|Shortly after the [[Levely]] abolishes the Warlord system, [[Marines]] move in to arrest [[Buggy]], [[Edward Weevil]], [[Dracule Mihawk]], and [[Boa Hancock]].}}
−
A bounty can be increased for several reasons:
  
−
* The threat of a person's observed combat abilities (as stated by Aokiji);{{qref|name="Bounty reflect"}}
  
−
* More experienced bounty hunters volunteering to capture the individual or group (like the Accino Family, non-canonically, trying to catch the entire Straw Hat Crew);
  
−
* Further criminal acts beyond the initial one;
  
−
* Inspiring criminal acts when provoked or inciting others to act 'criminally' (for example, Whitebeard destroying Marine ships that followed his fleet for reconnaissance and Dragon leading his organization to topple countries allied with the World Government).
  
   
  +
(A murkier case exists for criminals — ''e.g.'' [[Jango]] — who are legitimately accepted into the [[Marines]]. It is possible that this process includes a full bounty removal, though the details of this process remain inconclusive.)
−
Occasionally, a designated amount on a bounty may increase if the criminal in question has committed crimes of considerable magnitude that goes beyond the crime(s) committed beforehand that earned them their initial bounty, as with the case of Luffy.
  
   
  +
It also remains unknown how or where exactly bounties are claimed, though the system is apparently reliable enough to support multiple industries of professional [[Bounty Hunter|bounty hunter]]s. Bounty collection is, predictably, barred to [[pirate]]s and other criminals, though exceptions can be made for petty miscreants such as the [[Franky Family]].{{Qref|sbs=64|page=66|It is confirmed that pirates cannot collect on bounties.}}{{Qref|chap=704|page=6|ep=633|[[Jeet]] and [[Abdullah]] are introduced, and implied to have lost their bounty hunter status for bombing government buildings.}}
−
Since the Marines can only issue bounties based on their knowledge of the criminal in question, a bounty may not necessarily reflect the true threat of a person. Tony Tony Chopper was mistaken for a mere pet and issued a mere {{B}}50, as the Marines were unaware he was responsible for defeating [[Kumadori]] of [[CP9]]. Luffy's bounty would doubtless be much higher if his defeat of [[Gekko Moriah]] wasn't kept secret by the government. Arlong, despite being a Grand Line pirate, had a far lower bounty than his overall threat level to the [[East Blue]], as he bribed the corrupt Marine [[Nezumi]] in order to keep his activities secret. In some cases, due to miscommunication or unreported information, the bounty may end up being much higher or lower than the criminal deserved for their actions.
  
   
  +
===Issuing and Increasing===
−
Regardless of the discrepancies, bounties are still treated as a way to determine a person's average threat level, being the one facet of society that can be easily compared. Stacking them against averages helps determine threats in relation to location; for example, the average bounty in the East Blue is{{B}}3,000,000, so a noteworthy one there would be {{B}}10,000,000 or more.{{qref|name="East Blue bounties"|chapter=96|episode=45|text=[[Lieutenant]] [[Brandnew]] announces Luffy's first bounty and explains the East Blue bounties.}} Since East Blue is defined as the weakest of the four seas outside of the Grand Line, West, North, and South Blue must have higher average bounties and have a greater number of famous criminals hailing from their waters. However, the four 'cardinal (direction)' seas pale in comparison to the Grand Line (up to [[Mariejois]]), where an exceptional bounty is around {{B}}100,000,000, and is considered nothing in the New World (or the second half of the Grand Line), where {{B}}100,000,000 is common or weak.{{qref|name="New World bounties"|chapter=498|episode=392|text=[[Shakuyaku|Shakky]] talks about the [[Eleven Supernovas]].}} [[Bellamy]] indicates that pirates have tried to fake bounty posters in order to make themselves more intimidating, but that the scheme usually falls through in short order. He assumed this of Luffy, whose goofy portrait failed to match his {{B}}100,000,000 bounty, but learned the hard way that Luffy was on the level.
  
  +
A bounty reflects both the threat and power of an individual as perceived by the World Government.{{Qref|name=c320|chap=320|ep=227|per Aokiji: "The size of your bounty does not only reflect the threat your combat abilities pose. It also gives to show how dangerous you are to the government."}} Engaging in activities deemed criminal by the World Government or associating with groups that engage in them is enough to warrant significant bounties, even if the criminal is not powerful themselves. In particular, any direct opposition to the World Government, no matter the reason, is treated as a serious offense, and bounties are issued accordingly. [[Nico Robin]], for example, has knowledge deemed illegal by the World Government and was issued a bounty of {{B}}79,000,000 at the age of eight, despite not personally participating in any immoral activity.
   
  +
Simply associating with a notable criminal figure can be enough to get a bounty; for instance, following the [[Dressrosa Arc|Dressrosa battle]], several of [[Monkey D. Luffy]]'s crew members and allies all got flat increases of {{B}}50,000,000 regardless of their role or presence during the incident. Pets can also receive bounties, though these bounties are often substantially smaller than human bounties.
−
While the the details of how high a bounty could be are not exactly known, the greatest amount revealed is that of the {{B}}550,000,000 bounty of [[Portgas D. Ace]] before his death, who was one of the most notorious pirates of the [[New World]] and the 2nd division commander of the [[Whitebeard Pirates]]. While a pirate with a bounty of {{B}}300,000,000 is still considered a rookie, once a pirate exceeds that value it is difficult to get any higher,{{qref|name="Exceed 300 Hard"|chapter=628|text=Jinbe says it's difficult to get any higher once the bounty exceeds {{B}}300 million}} and it seems that {{B}}400,000,000 is enough to be considered an elite pirate.{{qref|name="Time Skip Bounty"|chapter=599|text=Fake Luffy mentions his bounty is {{B}}400,000,000.}} While the Shichibukai are also important pirates in the world, some of their former bounties are not particularly high, however it should be noted that these are their former bounties which don't represent the threat that they could've achieved as active pirates. After Jinbe resigned, his bounty jumped to over {{B}}400,000,000.
  
   
  +
Since the Marines can only issue bounties based on their knowledge of the criminal in question (or the knowledge they are comfortable disclosing to the public) a bounty may not necessarily reflect the true threat of a person. Tony Tony Chopper of the Straw Hat Pirates was mistaken for a mere pet and issued a measly {{B}}50, as the Marines were unaware he was responsible for defeating [[Kumadori]] of [[CP9]].{{Qref|name=c435|chap=435|ep=320|Chopper was mistaken for the Straw Hats' pet and thus he was given a symbolic bounty of {{B}}50.}} Additionally, Luffy's bounty would have been increased after [[Thriller Bark Arc|defeating]] Warlord [[Gecko Moria]], but as this incident had to be kept secret, no change was made.{{Qref|chap=483|page=15-16|ep=375|Kuma reports to the World Government about Moria's defeat.}} Arlong, despite being a Grand Line pirate, had a very low bounty relative to his actions in [[East Blue]], as he bribed the corrupt Marine [[Nezumi]] to keep his activities secret.{{Qref|chap=69|page=12-16|ep=31|Arlong bribes Nezumi.}} In some cases, due to miscommunication or unreported information, the bounty may end up being much higher or lower than what the criminal deserved for their actions.{{Qref|name=c435}} The best example of this is Buggy, whose bounty jumped from {{B}}15,000,000 to {{B}}3,189,000,000 due to various misconceptions surrounding him after the disbandment of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
−
===Retracting Bounties===
  
−
[[Image:Dontacos.jpg|thumb|A crossed off poster]]
  
   
  +
Occasionally, after a bounty is issued, the designated amount on a bounty may increase for any of several reasons:
−
Bounties, once issued, are usually only retracted when the criminal is captured, killed, or is known to have otherwise died. A change in lifestyle will not affect the bounty. Wanted posters are usually marked with a large red X to indicate that the criminal was taken cared of. The notion that death brings freedom from the bounty was the sole reason for Kuro's plan to escape a pirate's life. A bounty can last for over a hundred years if the criminal is not proven to be dead, like the giants Dorry and Brogy, who can live several centuries. [[Brook]]'s bounty was placed between 40 and 50 years ago, and is still active, the Marines having discovered that he is the same person as the living person in the photograph.
  
  +
*The threat of a person's observed combat abilities is discovered to be greater than previously believed (as stated by [[Kuzan|Aokiji]]).{{Qref|name=c320}}
  +
* More experienced bounty hunters volunteering to capture the individual or group.
  +
*New crimes being committed by the criminal, often of much greater magnitude than previous crimes.
  +
*Inspiring criminal acts when provoked or inciting others to act 'criminally' (for example, Whitebeard destroying Marine ships that followed his fleet for reconnaissance and Dragon leading his organization to conquer nations affiliated with the World Government).
   
  +
It is very rare for a bounty to go any higher once it reaches {{B}}300,000,000.{{Qref|name=c628|chap=628|ep=548|Jinbe says it is difficult to get any higher once the bounty exceeds {{B|S}}300 million.}}
−
Aside from death or capture, bounties may be retracted if the criminal can prove themselves an asset to either the [[Marines]] or [[World Government]]. This is the case with the [[Shichibukai]], who are considered allies of the World Government and have their bounties retracted. With this, they are allowed to continue being a criminal on a conditional basis. A bounty may be removed by a court of law, as [[Jango]]'s was during his mini-series. Jango's case was further aided by the pleas of the Marine [[Fullbody]] during the case. This later allowed him to join the Marines under the command of [[Hina]].
  
   
  +
===Identification===
−
Criminals who end up as [[slaves]] keep their bounties on their heads; however, so long as the slave remains a slave the Marines do nothing to arrest them. To this end, they ignore the slavery on the [[Sabaody Archipelago]] as a number of criminals end up slaves there; some even go on to be bought by the [[World Nobles]]. Once a slave is freed or tossed aside by its owner, they immediately become fair game once more.
  
  +
Bounties are conventionally issued through {{Nihongo|'''wanted posters'''|手配書|tehai-sho}}: single, easily-portable leaflets depicting each criminal's portrait, name, and reward amount. These are regularly circulated by [[Animal Species#News Coo|News Coos]] across the [[world]], and are commonly posted in public locations such as [[Bars, Restaurants, and Cafes|taverns]] for civilians, as well as being kept by [[Marine Base|Marine base]]s and [[Marine Ships|ships]] for reference.
   
  +
[[File:Krieg, Buggy, and Arlong's Bounty Posters.png|thumb|center|660px|Standard wanted posters, issued for three East Blue Pirate Captains.]]
−
===Fake Bounties===
  
−
As bounties are typically assigned numbers printed on paper with the picture of the criminal it was assigned to, bounties can be altered by skilled forgers. According to Bellamy, Pirates have been known to make up fake bounties in the past to intimidate other people to their advantage. These scams tend to be quickly quelled though, due to the insubstantial nature of the deception.
  
   
  +
The portraits used for wanted posters are typically high-quality photographs, taken by specialists from the Marines' Photography Department.{{Qref|sbs=24|page=46|Fan Question: How do the Marines get hold of photos of criminals?}} However, their resources are not infallible; if no suitable photograph can be attained, an artist's rendering may be used instead. Like reward amounts, portraits may be updated to reflect significant changes, such as aging or disfigurement, or if a better image is found.
−
==Identification==
  
−
A criminal is, more often than not, known by his poster. Without the issuing of a {{Nihongo|'''wanted poster'''|手配書|tehai-sho}}, no criminal can be made known. These posters are distributed across the world in [[newspapers]] and establishments. Marines also keep copies of each criminal at their bases and on board their ships for quick identification. [[Bounty Hunters]] may also carry a list.
  
   
  +
Wanted posters generally print the criminal's full name whenever possible (though active use is prioritized over all, hence [[Franky]]'s poster printing his adopted name rather than his birth name). In very rare cases, an [[epithet]] may be included as part of the name.
−
===The Poster Picture===
  
−
The most important part of a poster is the person's portrait. It allows swift identification upon sighting the person and informs everyone in the world of their wanted status. The picture normally takes the form of a photograph; if a suitable photograph is unavailable, an artist's rendering may be substituted as in the case of Sanji. To some (including Sanji), a decent photograph is as important as the bounty itself, it being the only way to be associated with the bounty on the poster. A new picture can be issued to account for any change in appearance (such as [[Nico Robin|Robin]]).

  +
}}
   
  +
== Effects==
−
One of the most mysterious things about wanted posters is the Marines' ability to obtain photos of almost every criminal with a bounty. These photos are eventually revealed to be taken by the Marine Photography Branch Captain "[[Attach|Flaming Attach]]", who received his name by shouting "Fire!" instead of "Cheese!" when taking a picture.{{qref|name="SBS1"|sbs=24|text=Fan question: How do the marines get hold of photos of criminals?}} Alternatively, should a photo be unavailable, a sketch will be made of the criminal. [[Mr. 13]] and [[Miss Friday]] were employed by the Marines to identify the remaining [[Baroque Works]] agents — the Numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 pairs — through this method, in exchange for erasing their own potential bounties and allowing them to join the Marines with a job like Attach.
  
  +
Bounties can be highly effective in publicizing and ostracizing criminals from lawful society, and are hence despised by those like [[Kuro]] (and, to a lesser extent, [[Nami]]) who seek those very comforts. Indeed, a bounty can turn entire communities against even children, as with [[Nico Robin]] in the wake of the [[Ohara Incident]].
   
  +
On the other hand, those — especially [[pirate]]s — that embrace criminality and notoriety hold bounties in considerable pride. The male [[Straw Hat Pirates]] display theirs near the [[Thousand Sunny]]'s sleeping quarters (with [[Sanji]] in particular being highly opinionated about both his bounty amount and portrait), and regularly celebrate any increases; these celebrations are often mirrored by their friends and allies, civilians included.
−
=== [[Epithet|Nicknames]] ===
  
−
The Marines give criminals, especially pirates, nicknames with the bounty poster that either describes their appearance (such as "Cyborg Franky"), what their powers/abilities are (such as "Black Leg Sanji" or "King of Snipers Sogeking"), or what they do (such as "Cat Burglar Nami" or "Pirate Hunter Zoro"). Sometimes, it is just the most common nickname a person has (Luffy was called "Straw Hat" before his first bounty was issued).
  
   
  +
[[File:Cracker's Wanted Poster.png|thumb|210px|Cracker's misleading portrait allows him to fool the World Government.]]
−
==List of bounties==
  
−
In the series, many bounties are revealed - either by the author in a reference box, said by a character (like Shakuyaku naming the nine [[The Eleven Supernovas|Supernovas]] not part of the Straw Hat Crew), or a bounty poster being revealed (although the value may not always be fully accurate or fully shown, as with the [[Red Arrows Pirates]]). For example, Nico Robin's specific bounty was not made clear until after it was known she had one. When [[Igaram]] first mentioned Crocodile's former bounty, he said it was {{B}}80,000,000{{qref|name="Crocbounty1"|chapter=113|episode=67|text=Igaram speaks of Crocodile's former bounty.}} while it actually is {{B}}81,000,000. Gekko Moriah was first introduced by Robin as merely holding a bounty higher than Luffy's.
  
   
  +
If a person wears a disguise that makes them look different, and they are recognized by that disguise, then they can fool the system, as shown with [[Charlotte Cracker]],{{Qref|chap=838}} and also to a lesser extent Usopp whose first official bounty was credited to his "Sogeking" persona rather than to himself.
−
Most of the current and former Shichibukai members have former bounties, since the first requirement to join the group is being recognized world-wide so one's notoriety scares criminals. Newcomer Blackbeard is an exception, having managed to get in by capturing Portgas D. Ace.
  
   
  +
Despite these shortcomings, both criminals and professional law enforcement commonly use bounties a shorthand for strength. Stacking them against regional averages helps determine threats in relation to location; for example, the average bounty in the [[East Blue]] is {{B}}3,000,000, bounty heads worth {{B}}10,000,000 or more would be considered noteworthy.{{Qref|chap=96|ep=45|Lieutenant Brannew announces Luffy's first bounty and explains the East Blue bounties.}} Since East Blue is defined as the weakest of the four seas outside of the [[Grand Line]], the [[West Blue]], [[North Blue]], and [[South Blue]] must all have higher average bounties and have a greater number of famous criminals hailing from their waters. However, pirates of the Grand Line tend to have the highest bounties, as pirates in Paradise can have bounties up to {{B}}100,000,000, and New World pirates can have bounties surpassing {{B}}1,000,000,000.{{Qref|chap=498|ep=392|Shakky talks about the Supernovas.}} Any bounty that goes to {{B}}1,000,000,000 or over is considered monstrous, even in the New World.{{Qref|chap=860|page=14|ep=830|Bege considers Charlotte Katakuri to be a monster for his over {{B}}1,000,000,000 bounty.}} High-ranked subordinates of [[Four Emperors]] are known to surpass or get close to those figures occasionally since their bounties tend to raise in tandem with their captain's.{{Qref|sbs=91|page=84|Fan Question: All the characters of “Emperor Officer” class have very high bounties. Do their bounties ever go up simply for the reason that they are the Officer of XX?}}
−
While several prisoners from [[Impel Down]] do not hold any specific value, Impel Down orders its prisoners from the bounty on their head. Levels 3 and 5 require bounties of {{B}}50,000,000 and {{B}}100,000,000 respectively, and the values required for others levels were not revealed. It is unknown if level 1 has a minimal value, although Buggy commented that every prisoner from level 2 that escaped with him holds a bounty higher than his own{{qref|name="Level 2 bounty"|chapter=549|text=Buggy comments that the other prisoners that escaped from Impel Down holds a bounty higher than his.}} ({{B}}15,000,000). Level 6 seems to use special requirements. Strangely, [[Mr. 2]] is an exception to this rule, having been imprisoned in level 3 with a bounty of merely {{B}}32,000,000. As such, the values may be just recommendations, and the effort taken to capture the criminals may factor into where they are placed, but not affect their bounty since the Marines see no need to change it now that they have been arrested.
  
   
  +
While the details of how high a bounty could be are unknown, the greatest amount revealed in the first half of the story was that of Whitebeard Pirates 2nd division commander and son of Gold Roger [[Portgas D. Ace]], worth {{B}}550,000,000. The current highest active bounty is that of the former [[Four Emperors|Emperor]] [[Kaidou]] with a bounty of {{B}}4,611,100,000.{{Qref|chap=957|page=16|ep=958|Kaidou's bounty is revealed.}}

While a pirate with a bounty of {{B}}300,000,000 is still considered a rookie, once a pirate exceeds that value it is difficult to get any higher,{{Qref|name=c628}} and it seems that {{B}}400,000,000 is enough to be considered an elite pirate.{{Qref|chap=599|ep=518|Fake Luffy mentions his bounty is {{B|S}}400,000,000.}} While the Seven Warlords are also important pirates in the world, some of their former bounties are not particularly high.

After Jinbe had resigned, his bounty increased to over {{B}}400,000,000.

However, special titles or promotions can make exceptions and offer more. Each star is worth roughly {{B}}100,000,000 and is offered in chests,{{Qref|name=c1080}} while one crown is equal to about {{B}}1,000,000,000.{{Qref|chap=1087|page=10}}

Due to its general censorship policies, [[4Kids Entertainment|the 4Kids-dubbed anime]] sometimes removes the "Dead or Alive" text from wanted posters.{{Qref|Episode 39 of the 4Kids dub (covering material from the original anime's [[Episode 45]]) depicts Buggy's, Krieg's, and Arlong's posters without the "Dead or Alive".}} In a few instances, it has been known to remove the "WANTED" as well.

More generally, wanted posters are often edited to match the official English names from 4Kids and/or [[VIZ Media]]—''e.g.'' [[Roronoa Zoro|Zoro]] to ''Zolo'', [[Brogy]] to ''Broggy'', and [[Bentham|Bon Kurei]] to ''Bon Clay''. These tend to be given little, if any, weight when determining [[canon]]ical name spellings.

While wanted posters are usually not sold as standalone merchandise, they are frequently incorporated into others, such as the packaging of various toys and the character galleries of various [[One Piece Video Games|video games]].

  +
*Sanji is the only known bounty holder to have been wanted "Only Alive". This was due to [[Vinsmoke Judge|his father]] pulling strings to ensure his son's live capture so he can use him to cement his alliance with [[Charlotte Linlin|Big Mom]]. Subsequent bounties, however, have since reverted to "Dead or Alive".
−
** Luffy holds the highest value of known bounty increases (being more than 13.33 times larger than the starting value, from {{B}}30,000,000 to {{B}}400,000,000).
  
  +
**In the real world, it is actually more common for bounties to be "wanted alive". However, this is due to the reasons for the bounty, and in ''One Piece'' bounties are people the World Government wants to either execute or imprison for life. Real world bounties may be for people the authorities simply want to question as part of an investigation. In such cases killing the individual would completely negate the purpose of the bounty.

A bounty is a reward, usually monetary, promised for the accomplishment of a certain task. In many contexts, and particularly the world of One Piece, it refers to the sum of money awarded for the capture and/or killing of pirates, bandits, Marines and other persons of interest.

Overview

Most of the world's bounties are issued by the World Government—via the Marines—with the intent of making the public aware of dangerous criminals, as well as encouraging civilians to help capture them. The specific amount of a given bounty is calculated by a special department within Marine Headquarters (currently headed by Commodore Brannew), based on the perceived threat level of a given criminal; the lowest bounty ever given was Beli50 to Tony Tony Chopper while the highest more than Beli4,000,000,000.[1] The highest-ever bounty in history belonged to Gol D. Roger, with bounty hunters being promised Beli5,564,800,000 for his capture.[2]

The standard bounty is issued with a "Dead or Alive" clause, signifying that the criminal no longer has protection from the law and therefore can be killed without repercussion. This makes both live captures and confirmed kills eligible for the reward. However, according to Baroque Works, authorities may detract up to 30% of a bounty if given a dead criminal, as they favor live captures for prison sentences and/or formal executions.[3] Alternatively, an "Only Alive" clause has been knowingly (albeit temporarily) approved for at least one individual, due to political influence from a significant kingdom invested in his survival.

Criminal organizations, such as pirate crews, typically only have bounties on their leaders or figureheads (eg. captains). However, larger organizations, in particular Four Emperors crews and more prominent pirate crews, will have bounties on some or all of their subordinates.

Bounties are not known to carry any statute of limitations; even criminals that have remained inactive for over a century, such as Dorry and Brogy, are viable as bounty heads as long as they have not been confirmed deceased.[4]

Certain circumstances may result in a bounty being frozen, rendering it temporarily inactive and shielding that person from judicial persecution. A notable example is having a membership in the Seven Warlords of the Sea (which extends to all explicit subordinates),[5][6] as well as slavery under the World Nobles. However, if these circumstances are retracted for any reason, the bounty will automatically be reinstated — possibly even increasing — and re-legitimize arrest.[7][8]

(A murkier case exists for criminals — e.g. Jango — who are legitimately accepted into the Marines. It is possible that this process includes a full bounty removal, though the details of this process remain inconclusive.)

It also remains unknown how or where exactly bounties are claimed, though the system is apparently reliable enough to support multiple industries of professional bounty hunters. Bounty collection is, predictably, barred to pirates and other criminals, though exceptions can be made for petty miscreants such as the Franky Family.[9][10]

Issuing and Increasing

A bounty reflects both the threat and power of an individual as perceived by the World Government.[11] Engaging in activities deemed criminal by the World Government or associating with groups that engage in them is enough to warrant significant bounties, even if the criminal is not powerful themselves. In particular, any direct opposition to the World Government, no matter the reason, is treated as a serious offense, and bounties are issued accordingly. Nico Robin, for example, has knowledge deemed illegal by the World Government and was issued a bounty of Beli79,000,000 at the age of eight, despite not personally participating in any immoral activity.

Simply associating with a notable criminal figure can be enough to get a bounty; for instance, following the Dressrosa battle, several of Monkey D. Luffy's crew members and allies all got flat increases of Beli50,000,000 regardless of their role or presence during the incident. Pets can also receive bounties, though these bounties are often substantially smaller than human bounties.

Since the Marines can only issue bounties based on their knowledge of the criminal in question (or the knowledge they are comfortable disclosing to the public) a bounty may not necessarily reflect the true threat of a person. Tony Tony Chopper of the Straw Hat Pirates was mistaken for a mere pet and issued a measly Beli50, as the Marines were unaware he was responsible for defeating Kumadori of CP9.[12] Additionally, Luffy's bounty would have been increased after defeating Warlord Gecko Moria, but as this incident had to be kept secret, no change was made.[13] Arlong, despite being a Grand Line pirate, had a very low bounty relative to his actions in East Blue, as he bribed the corrupt Marine Nezumi to keep his activities secret.[14] In some cases, due to miscommunication or unreported information, the bounty may end up being much higher or lower than what the criminal deserved for their actions.[12] The best example of this is Buggy, whose bounty jumped from Beli15,000,000 to Beli3,189,000,000 due to various misconceptions surrounding him after the disbandment of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Occasionally, after a bounty is issued, the designated amount on a bounty may increase for any of several reasons:

  • The threat of a person's observed combat abilities is discovered to be greater than previously believed (as stated by Aokiji).[11]
  • More experienced bounty hunters volunteering to capture the individual or group.
  • New crimes being committed by the criminal, often of much greater magnitude than previous crimes.
  • Inspiring criminal acts when provoked or inciting others to act 'criminally' (for example, Whitebeard destroying Marine ships that followed his fleet for reconnaissance and Dragon leading his organization to conquer nations affiliated with the World Government).

It is very rare for a bounty to go any higher once it reaches Beli300,000,000.[15]

Identification

Bounties are conventionally issued through wanted posters (手配書, tehai-sho?): single, easily-portable leaflets depicting each criminal's portrait, name, and reward amount. These are regularly circulated by News Coos across the world, and are commonly posted in public locations such as taverns for civilians, as well as being kept by Marine bases and ships for reference.

Krieg, Buggy, and Arlong's Bounty Posters

Standard wanted posters, issued for three East Blue Pirate Captains.

The portraits used for wanted posters are typically high-quality photographs, taken by specialists from the Marines' Photography Department.[16] However, their resources are not infallible; if no suitable photograph can be attained, an artist's rendering may be used instead. Like reward amounts, portraits may be updated to reflect significant changes, such as aging or disfigurement, or if a better image is found.

Wanted posters generally print the criminal's full name whenever possible (though active use is prioritized over all, hence Franky's poster printing his adopted name rather than his birth name). In very rare cases, an epithet may be included as part of the name.

Dorry & Brogy Bounty Poster
Dorry and Brogy are the only known (canon) bounty heads to share a wanted poster. Per Mr. 3, the reward amount applies to each individually.
Sanji's Wanted Poster
Sanji's first wanted poster used a crude facial sketch that unwittingly captured the likeness of a completely unrelated man.
Brook's Concert Wanted Poster
Brook's current poster is perhaps the most unorthodox, being repurposed from a concert flyer. Note the "SK" (abbreviating his epithet "Soul King").

Effects

Bounties can be highly effective in publicizing and ostracizing criminals from lawful society, and are hence despised by those like Kuro (and, to a lesser extent, Nami) who seek those very comforts. Indeed, a bounty can turn entire communities against even children, as with Nico Robin in the wake of the Ohara Incident.

On the other hand, those — especially pirates — that embrace criminality and notoriety hold bounties in considerable pride. The male Straw Hat Pirates display theirs near the Thousand Sunny's sleeping quarters (with Sanji in particular being highly opinionated about both his bounty amount and portrait), and regularly celebrate any increases; these celebrations are often mirrored by their friends and allies, civilians included.

Cracker's Wanted Poster

Cracker's misleading portrait allows him to fool the World Government.

If a person wears a disguise that makes them look different, and they are recognized by that disguise, then they can fool the system, as shown with Charlotte Cracker,[17] and also to a lesser extent Usopp whose first official bounty was credited to his "Sogeking" persona rather than to himself.

Despite these shortcomings, both criminals and professional law enforcement commonly use bounties a shorthand for strength. Stacking them against regional averages helps determine threats in relation to location; for example, the average bounty in the East Blue is Beli3,000,000, bounty heads worth Beli10,000,000 or more would be considered noteworthy.[18] Since East Blue is defined as the weakest of the four seas outside of the Grand Line, the West Blue, North Blue, and South Blue must all have higher average bounties and have a greater number of famous criminals hailing from their waters. However, pirates of the Grand Line tend to have the highest bounties, as pirates in Paradise can have bounties up to Beli100,000,000, and New World pirates can have bounties surpassing Beli1,000,000,000.[19] Any bounty that goes to Beli1,000,000,000 or over is considered monstrous, even in the New World.[20] High-ranked subordinates of Four Emperors are known to surpass or get close to those figures occasionally since their bounties tend to raise in tandem with their captain's.[21]

While the details of how high a bounty could be are unknown, the greatest amount revealed in the first half of the story was that of Whitebeard Pirates 2nd division commander and son of Gold Roger Portgas D. Ace, worth Beli550,000,000. The current highest active bounty is that of the former Emperor Kaidou with a bounty of Beli4,611,100,000.[22]

While a pirate with a bounty of Beli300,000,000 is still considered a rookie, once a pirate exceeds that value it is difficult to get any higher,[15] and it seems that Beli400,000,000 is enough to be considered an elite pirate.[23] While the Seven Warlords are also important pirates in the world, some of their former bounties are not particularly high. However it should be noted that these are their former bounties which do not represent the threat that they could have achieved as active pirates. After Jinbe had resigned, his bounty increased to over Beli400,000,000.

In terms of piracy, any rookie who has earned a bounty of over Beli100,000,000 is considered particularly dangerous and noteworthy, and is considered a "Supernova" (超新星, Chōshinsei?).[24] The Worst Generation (最悪の世代, Saiaku no Sedai?) is a group of eleven Supernovas rising to power during the Golden Age of Piracy, who almost simultaneously appeared on Sabaody Archipelago. Each holds a bounty of over Beli100,000,000 and all have advanced into the New World.[25]

Earning a large bounty in a relatively short period of time also gives the pirate notorious attention and a global reputation. After earning a bounty of Beli80,000,000 in a single campaign, the World Government offered Boa Hancock a position among the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Blackbeard believed he could become a Warlord if he defeated Monkey D. Luffy, whose bounty had jumped from Beli30,000,000 to Beli100,000,000 following the defeat of Baroque Works and their leader Crocodile. Blackbeard would settle for achieving his goal by turning in Portgas D. Ace instead, since Ace had caught up with him and Blackbeard emerged victorious.

According to Bellamy, it is common for pirates to exaggerate their bounties and even forge wanted posters to build up an intimidating reputation.[26] However, no actual instances of this (apart from the Fake Straw Hat Crew, who were impersonating legitimate bounty heads) have been seen thus far.

Variants

Thus far, at least three other bounty/wanted systems have been known to exist outside the standard World Government system:

  • Fish-Man Island, for a time, circulated posters for Vander Decken IX (and possibly his ancestors). These, notably, were headed with "DANGER" and displayed neither "DEAD OR ALIVE" nor a specific bounty.[27]
  • Dressrosa, by decree of its king, Donquixote Doflamingo, briefly placed bounties on the five Straw Hat Pirates and seven independent allies opposing the Donquixote Pirates' rule. These were organized along a five-star rating scale, with each star promising Beli100,000,000 for their capture.[28]
    • In the early years of Doflamingo's reign, Kyros—as "Thunder Soldier"—was independently placed on a wanted poster. This poster (like Decken's) displayed neither "DEAD OR ALIVE" nor a specific bounty; what authority issued it remains unknown.[29]
  • The Cross Guild, an organization established by former Warlords of the Sea Buggy, Dracule Mihawk, and Crocodile, has begun issuing bounties for Marines. Similar to the bounties placed by Doflamingo, the bounty amounts are indicated by symbols rather than monetary units. These symbols include stars (★)[30] or crowns (Crown).[31] Different ranks among the Marines are worth different stars or crowns and the higher the rank, the higher the reward is, with a Marine Captain for example being worth one Star and an Admiral worth three crowns. However, special titles or promotions can make exceptions and offer more. Each star is worth roughly Beli100,000,000 and is offered in chests,[30] while one crown is equal to about Beli1,000,000,000.[32]

Anime and Manga Differences

While the manga depicts wanted posters with only the standard "WANTED/DEAD OR ALIVE" labels, names, and bounty amounts legible, many anime episodes also expand the text in each poster's bottom-left corner into legible (if facetious) text:

“ KONO SAKUHIN WA FICTION DESUNODE JITSUZAISURU JINBUTSU DANTAI
SONOTA NO SOSHIKI TO DOITSU NO MEISHOU GA GEKICHU NI TOUJYOU
SHITATOSHITEMO JITSUZAI NA MONOTOWA ISSAI MUKANKEIDESU.		 ”


This is a rough romaji transcription of the Japanese for, "Because this performance is fiction, existing characters, associations and other organizations with similar names which appeared during the play are without exception unrelated" (この作品はフィクションですので実在する人物団体、その他の組織と同一の名称が劇中に登場、したとしても実在なものとは一切無関係です?)—essentially an "All persons are fictitious" disclaimer.[33]

Translation and Dub Issues

Due to its general censorship policies, the 4Kids-dubbed anime sometimes removes the "Dead or Alive" text from wanted posters.[34] In a few instances, it has been known to remove the "WANTED" as well.

More generally, wanted posters are often edited to match the official English names from 4Kids and/or VIZ Media—e.g. Zoro to Zolo, Brogy to Broggy, and Bon Kurei to Bon Clay. These tend to be given little, if any, weight when determining canonical name spellings.

The Funimation dub does not do so, leaving posters completely unedited even when name changes — e.g. Sogeking to Sniper King — are observed by dialogue.

Merchandise

While wanted posters are usually not sold as standalone merchandise, they are frequently incorporated into others, such as the packaging of various toys and the character galleries of various video games. Many of these tend to be mock-ups, using the poster layout to depict characters with canonically unknown — or even nonexistent — bounties.

The One Piece Magazine includes a complementary wanted poster with each issue. These expand the bottom-right text into: "The World Government is offering a reward for information leading directly to the capture of this individual. If you have any information please contact Naval Authorities".

Trivia

Posters

  • Technically, joke character Mikio Itoo was the first bounty depicted in the series, with his wanted poster hanging on a back wall of Partys Bar.[35]
  • Law's wanted poster shows Bepo appearing in the background with his head turned in the same position and stance as Usopp in Luffy's first wanted poster photo.[36]
  • Wanted posters have been known to print epithets with the names of six individuals — "M" Caesar Clown (Master), "God" Usopp, "SK" Brook (Soul King), Capone "Gang" Bege, Eustass "Captain" Kid, and "Sir" Crocodile — canonically. Non-canonically, Lip "Service" Doughty's poster was also depicted thus in One Piece: Stampede, as well as all the posters given to One Piece Odyssey original characters.
  • Sanji's first and fourth bounty poster are the only known posters to use a sketch instead of a photograph for the picture. As a consequence, those posters are also the only one to depict another person in the picture entirely, as the drawing ended up perfectly resembling Duval's original appearance, though unintentionally.
  • Sanji is the only known bounty holder to have been wanted "Only Alive". This was due to his father pulling strings to ensure his son's live capture so he can use him to cement his alliance with Big Mom. Subsequent bounties, however, have since reverted to "Dead or Alive".
    • In the real world, it is actually more common for bounties to be "wanted alive". However, this is due to the reasons for the bounty, and in One Piece bounties are people the World Government wants to either execute or imprison for life. Real world bounties may be for people the authorities simply want to question as part of an investigation. In such cases killing the individual would completely negate the purpose of the bounty.
    • All five members of the boy band Arashi also had "Only Alive" on their posters during the A-ra-shi: Reborn music video.
    • The five Where's Waldo had "Only Alive" on their posters during the Where's Wally x One Piece crossover event.
  • The Red Arrows Pirates are the only crew where every member shares one single bounty.
  • While most bounty posters are printed with English letters, characters exclusive to One Piece Odyssey had bounties written with Japanese characters.

Amounts

  • It is possible for pets to earn bounties, which are far lower than standard. Both Tony Tony Chopper and Bepo, mistaken for pets, were given such a treatment.
    • Ironically, while Bepo's bounty is a mere Beli500 because of his appearance, fellow Minks Pekoms and Pedro managed to earn a much higher Beli330,000,000 and Beli382,000,000 bounties respectively.
  • In real life, the highest known bounty for piracy was £1000, placed on Henry Avery and his crew by Great Britain's East India Company. Due to the many historical fluctuations of the pound sterling, sources differ on what exactly this should amount to after adjusting for inflation; the highest estimates place it around £153,000 (approx. $199,600 or ¥21,330,000) circa 2020.
    • However, rewards as high as $25,000,000 (£19,167,625 or ¥2,671,762,500 circa 2020) have been offered on modern-day criminals such as Osama bin Laden, merely for valuable information rather than death or capture.[39]
  • Oda stated that if Enel were actually a wanted criminal, he would have a bounty that could reach up to Beli500,000,000.[40]
  • In the first databook, Kuro's bounty is stated to be Beli16,000,000.[41] However, in the Movie 9 opening sequence it is incorrectly shown as Beli14,000,000.[42]
  • The second volume of the One Piece Magazine has a list of 67 known bounties at the time of its release, organized in descending order.
  • The bounties of the Four Emperors and Gol D. Roger seem to feature goroawase wordplay in the smaller digits.
    • Shanks' bounty of Beli4,048,900,000: 4-8-9 can be read as shi-ya-ku (シヤク). This could refer to his given name "Shanks" (シャンクス, Shankusu?).
    • Charlotte Linlin's bounty of Beli4,388,000,000: 8-8 can be read as ha-ha. 母 (haha) means "mother", which could refer to her epithet, "Big Mom" (ビッグ・マム, Biggu Mamu?).
    • Kaidou's bounty of Beli4,611,100,000: 110 as a whole number is hyaku-jū. This could refer to Kaidou's epithet, "Kaidou of the Beasts" (百獣のカイドウ, Hyakujū no Kaidō?).
    • Edward Newgate's bounty of Beli5,046,000,000: 4-6 can be read as shi-ro. 白 (shiro) means "white", which could refer to his epithet, "Whitebeard" (白ひげ, Shirohige?).
    • Roger's bounty of Beli5,564,800,000: 6-4-8 can be read as ro-shi-ya (ロシヤ). This could refer to his given name "Roger" (ロジャー, Rojā?).
    • Marshall D. Teach's bounty of Beli3,996,000,000: 9-6 can be read as ku-ro. 黒 (kuro) means "black ", which could refer to his epithet, "Blackbeard" (黒ひげ, Kurohige?).
    • Buggy's bounty of Beli3,189,000,000: 1-8-9 can be read as ichi-ya-ku. 一躍 (ichiyaku) means "suddenly" or "overnight", which could refer to his sudden rise to power.
  • Going strictly by in-story revelations, the manga canon's highest-known bounties have been thus:
