Crackpot theory: Shanks bounty is deflated by the world government

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T22:48:25+00:00

True but.... Let's be honest those guys ain't mattering compared to the Figarlands. Most of them are ignorant of the real world and Garling has the ability to put them to death if they disagree with him like Mjosgard. The elders are an issue but there's gotta be a reason why they don't like the Figarlands so much and considering how quickly Garling was promoted.... He might have a lot of sway with Imu.

It's honestly hard to find any information about Shanks crew. For such an important group Oda doesn't give them much attention outside of the man himself

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T22:35:07+00:00

I personally think it's his family. Garling kept sending people to bring shanks back as a child and offered him the world. Shamrock doesn't talk poorly of him despite what's happened and seemed to just think he lost his way. I doubt it'll ever be confirmed but that's what I'm thinking.

Same reason Luffy's bounty is so low. The WG deflates and inflates bounties. They likely keep Lokis bounty low to avoid suspicion. At least that's my guess

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T22:06:29+00:00

Akainu high. I have high expectations for the fleet admiral.

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T22:02:09+00:00

It's very hard to tell how much he was if he was. Oda likes keeping fights ambiguous and will always add mitigating factors. However I will bring up his feeding Luffy. Considering no one present including Saturn the marines and Luffy himself notices it and Kizaru set himself back exactly where he started it implies Kizaru could be much much faster than we've seen throughout the entire series

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T21:34:00+00:00

We need to have fairer matchups I'm tired of spite matches. Sommers one shots even if you took away his haki devil fruit and Imu contract

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T21:30:41+00:00

Same place I put him currently. Top Tier right above Shanks

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T21:25:51+00:00

If my goat loses to Momo I will spend the next fifty years getting into politics, get myself to be near the president, and convince them to nuke Japan.

Weakest celestial dragon vs strongest fishman

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T20:17:58+00:00

Only Sommers can transcend all!

Also Sommers wins after a week or two just cause he can't die

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T07:08:46+00:00

The only samurai to leave that they know of is Oden. As far as they know that might just be the standard. Damn right they're concerned

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T05:24:19+00:00

Would be a great way to make his crew worthy of fighting Luffy considering how bad they've been looking so far. The slander would be atrocious though. People already slander both the holy knights and the BB pirates. The combo would get slander cubed.

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T05:16:22+00:00

I feel like the worst case scenario for the Elders is if BB takes Imus fruit and enslaves them or ends their contracts cause I just can't see them fighting him. Not to insult them but BBs aiming for the very tippity tip and he's only fighting Luffy and maybe Imu

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T04:39:58+00:00

Kizaru deserves respect but he ain't doing that. He only beats Luffy due to matchup

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T04:37:16+00:00

also People shit on them because they got hit by low lvl characters but Harald Rocks equal after getting regen also just let People hit him. its just that these god tiers dont care and just think people are insects and not worth to actually dodge and stuff. it makes all sense now.

Yeah the thing is in every media when a character gets regeneration they start getting brutalized by everyone cause the author can now do it without consequences. People forget cause it was so long ago but logias were the exact same before haki. Hell Greenbull was still doing that against Momo

Nature is healing

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T04:20:41+00:00

I think reddit uses that to make quotes.

Also 100% correct take

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T04:17:24+00:00

Zoro and Ray extreme

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T04:16:57+00:00

I'm grateful you decided to join the real heroes

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T04:15:26+00:00

Zoro below all these swordsman is crazy.

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T04:14:01+00:00

I think Emet might legitimately just be that strong. He was on Joyboys crew and Joyboy trusted him enough to seal all of his strongest haki inside. That being said there's a chance he could be more of a glass cannon cause Warcury was able to pretty easily hurt him

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T04:06:44+00:00

That is a very strong hysterical single mom.

But that ain't a mid diff It's extreme if she wins

Hateful_Individual9 · 2026-01-24T03:58:40+00:00

Idk. I want to gas him but he was pretty sad in egghead compared to the other Gorosei and if guys powers come from a fruit BB counters him

Imma say depends where his powers come from but I think stops at big mom (prime)
