Summary
One Pieceis one of the most loved anime to date and has bragging rights to being one of the longest-running shows in the business. Pirates scour the ocean searching for treasure, although these adventurers run the risk of being hunted down by the government and the Marines they command. In many cases, the World Government soldiers can handle any number of pirate crews on the ocean. However, there are a few exceptions.
Outstanding pirates whose reputations have spread across the world have bounties placed on them, which can be collected if they are handed over to the World Government or killed. Bounties are ranked according to power and notoriety, which is why the highest-ranked characters are considered the most ruthless and dangerous pirates in the world. Who hasthe highest bounty inOne Piece?
Non-canonical bounties are not included, and neither are Cross Guild bounties placed on Marines. There are also a few big-name characters who are confirmed to have bounties, but the figure is unknown. Consequently, people like Monkey D. Dragon, Silvers Rayleigh, and Rocks D. Xebec cannot be included.
Updated on July 08, 2025, by Mark Sammut:One Piece’s Elbaph Arc is still ongoing, and new bounties have not been released over the last year. Consequently, each entry has been expanded to include galleries and information regarding a pirate’s crew, outdated bounties, and whether their bounties are considered active.
Cavendish and Pekoms both share the same bounty. Fans know the former to be the captain of the Beautiful Pirates, hailing from the Bourgeois Kingdom. He’s also a member of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet and the leader of its first division. Cavendish is a very powerful pirate, and the fact that he holds the highest bounty in the Grand Fleet just goes to show that.
As for Pekoms, fans know him to be a very powerful member of the Big Mom Pirates who showcased his strength quite early into the timeskip of the story. Cavendish and Pekoms are both worthy of their 330 million bounties, and fans could get to see more of them asOne Pieceprogresses.
44Donquixote Doflamingo
340 Million Berries
Donquixote Doflamingo is a former Warlord of the Sea, and fans know him to be the main antagonist of the Dressrosa Saga ofOne Piece. In this particular saga, Doflamingo was a thorn in Luffy and Law’s path, along with just being one of the most detestable tyrants to grace this universe. At this point in the story, Doflamingo did not have an active bounty, and his old bounty was revealed to the fans to be 340 million berries.
Of course, this bounty wasn’t truly reflective of his level of strength or his infamy. Had he not been a Shichibukai, his bounty would have been much higher. But 340 million berries is the only reward that fans have of Doflamingo so far.
43Scratchmen Apoo
350 Million Berries
Scratchman Apoo is a member of the Worst Generation who hails from the Grand Line. He is the captain of the On-Air Pirates, and recently, he played an active role in the Wano Country Arc. After the fall of Kaido, he was seen in Wano once again, and it is unknown what exactly he did after leaving the country.
Apoo has a bounty of 350 million berries, and it is certainly an incredible reward that he deserves. Any higher would certainly be undeserving. Largely speaking, Apoo has been underwhelming in the story as a character, and it is highly unlikely that Oda will write him as an active player in any major arc anytime soon.
42Bege
Capone Gang Bege is an incredibly powerful individual who belongs to the Worst Generation. Bege arrived on Sabaody with a bounty greater than 100 million berries, and that made him a feared pirate. After the timeskip, he has done incredibly well for himself, and right now, he can be considered to be a veteran pirate of the New World.
Bege has accomplished many intriguing feats, and recently, he received a 50 million bounty increase, which pushed his total bounty from 300 million to 350 million. This was largely down to the fact that he collaborated with Luffy in an attempt to assassinate Big Mom, and caused great damage to her reputation, as well as her territory. Bege managed to escape from the territory successfully, which, again, goes to show his incredible powers as a pirate. His bounty certainly does do his strength justice, but if he had a higher bounty, that would be understandable as well. Bege still has more to offer, and fans can hope to see him later down the line in the story again.
41Nami
366 Million Berries
Nami is the navigator of the Straw Hat Pirates and one of the officers in Yonko Luffy’s crew. Nami is quite powerful; however, within the crew itself, she is one of the weakest members. Nami had a bounty of 66 million berries before the events of the Wano Country arc, but she then got a 300 million berries increase, which pushed her total reward to 366 million.
Right now, she has a bounty that can be enough to qualify her as a veteran pirate. The pirate crew of the Pirate King certainly needs such high bounties on board, and it is safe to say that Nami’s rewards will only grow higher from here. That said, while Nami does possess incredible firepower, thanks to Zeus, she still has a lot of room for development when it comes to other aspects of battle, and, as such, her bounty might be slightly inflated thanks to Luffy’s status as a Yonko.
40Pedro
382 Million Berries
Pedro was one of the Guardians of the Whale Forest and one of the most important Minks that the fans have seen in One Piece. Pedro was properly introduced to the fans in the Zou Arc, and he became extremely close to Luffy and the group as he went with them to Whole Cake Island. Pedro possessed tremendous strength up his sleeve, and being an excellent swordsman who commanded the power of Electro strong enough to match and defeat even Tamago was proof of that.
On top of that, Pedro also had a Sulong transformation that would push him to the next level in combat. If that wasn’t enough, then one should also consider the fact that he was the leader of the Nox Pirates. Given that they researched Poneglyphs, the government has no choice but to take notice of him. Pedro acquired a 382 million berry bounty, and it was totally justified.
39Brook
383 Million Berries
Brook is the musicianof the Straw Hat Pirateswho has, over the years, become incredibly important in the series. Brook possesses decent strength, and at the same time, he is also a threat to the World Government just by being a part of Luffy’s crew.
Brook has a bounty of 383 million berries, and he possesses enough strength to justify that bounty. Of course, Brook still has a long way to go, but for now, his bounty reflects his strength very well.
38Franky
394 Million Berries
Franky is one of the powerhouses of the Straw Hat Pirates, and he plays the role of the shipwright of the crew. When it comes to his powers, thanks to all the enhancements he made to himself, he has successfully turned himself into a powerful cyborg. Over the timeskip, he has modified his body greatly, and right now, he’s strong enough to fight veteran pirates and defeat them. Franky was able to defeat Sasaki in the Wano Country arc, which is proper proof of the fact that he is a pirate worthy of a very high bounty.
In fact, even after defeating Sasaki, he could have fought more, as he offered Zoro a helping hand. If anything, Franky deserves a higher bounty than the one that he currently has. Still, a 394 million berry bounty is quite impressive.
Karasu and Ulti both have a 400 million bounty inOne Piece.When it comes to Karasu, he is the North Army commander of the Revolutionary Army and certainly a very strong individual. Fans know him to be quite dangerous, thanks to the power of his Susu Susu no Mi. Karasu is quite dangerous in combat, as shown during his clash with Fujitora, which highlighted that he has quite a lot of skill. Even though his bounty is just 400 million berries, it is bound to increase with time.
On the other hand, Ulti was a Tobi Roppo of the Beast Pirates. Her strength is certainly impeccable, and in her group, she was certainly one of the most impressive ones. She has a great pachycephalosaurus Devil Fruit and, on top of that, she also has some great Haki. In fact, in combat, Luffy had the resort to using Gear Fourth if he were to fight her in an extended battle.
36Tamago
429,000,000 Berries
One of the top officers of the Big Mom Pirates, Tamago has a 429 million berry bounty on his head. He is quite strong and certainly worthy of his bounty. In combat, he makes use of his Tama Tama no Mi, which grants him weird powers.
Essentially, Tamago evolves the more he fights, getting stronger when he is struck down. He goes from an egg, ultimately turning into Count Niwatori. He’s also a skilled fighter with his legs.
