One Piece: True Several Thousand Hands, rampaging across Marineford!

The bounty announced by Kaido.

This means he is one of the strongest individuals below the top-tier experts, or perhaps even the strongest.

"Katakuri's bounty: 930 million Berries."

"Oh~ giggle!"

Kaido pointed at Katakuri and laughed loudly, "You really aren't as tall as me!!!"

"childish!"

Katakuri praised others' qualities verbally, but his eyes were fixed on his own bounty. Clearly, his true feelings differed from his words; he cared deeply about his bounty.

"Shimotsuki Gyuumaru's bounty: 880 million Berries."

"puff!!!"

Shimotsuki Beef Ball was dumbfounded.

Why is my bounty so high?

This unscientific!

"That makes sense."

Morgans explained, "You were born in Wano Country and are a daimyo, which is very important to the World Government. It's normal for your first bounty to be higher. Didn't you notice anything different about your bounty compared to others?"

"Capture alive?"

Shimotsuki Ushimaru carefully examined his bounty poster and found some differences, a discovery that made him very uncomfortable.

"The requirement is that they must be captured alive!"

Morgans said, “Identity, background, bloodline… all these are different, don’t be surprised. We don’t care about these things here. Everyone else has the Lox background, which is more important than yours.”

"..."

Frost Moon Beef Ball said somewhat embarrassedly, "This bounty is too high."

After Morgans' reminder, he realized that many factors combined to create such a high bounty for him.

"Abel's bounty: 668 million Berries."

"Ach bounty: 635.55 million Berries".

Gaia's bounty: 570 million Berries.

"It seems that Miss Lena has no bounty and no information about her has been leaked. It seems that the World Government hasn't noticed. This is good news, at least Miss Lena hasn't been exposed to the World Government's attention. The only time she was exposed was when she dealt Rayleigh a fatal blow in Wano Country. Shakky and I certainly won't say anything carelessly."

"Kaiser doesn't seem to have a real face either; the wanted poster just shows him as a masked guy."

"Kaiser's bounty: 490 million Berries".

The wanted poster features a mysterious sniper wearing a mask.

"Don't look at me."

Morgans looked at the expectant gazes of the crowd and smiled, "I know what you want to say. Next is the most important part: the bounty. Do you want to guess?"

"Eh?"

Thor guessed, "Lord Kahn's bounty is over a billion, and mine is five hundred million?"

"Uh……"

Morgans said awkwardly, "I almost forgot, your bounty hasn't been released yet."

"..."

Solton was speechless, his face full of black lines, and took a bounty poster from Morgans' hand.

The other members craned their necks.

He looked curiously at Thor's bounty poster.

The wanted poster showed Thor wearing a cloak, with a chain made of special material around his waist, one end of which was connected to a hammer. He was sitting on the ground, looking up at the sky, lost in thought.

It looks like the battle is over.

The key is……

The bounty on the wanted poster is only 349,900 Berries.

Thor's eyes started to turn red.

The gap was far greater than it had imagined. After fighting for so long and experiencing so many battles, including the two major battles of Wano Country and the Hive Sea, it had participated in them all.

Why only a paltry 300,000-odd Berries?!

"That's not right."

Abel produced a price chart showing the various races as divided by the World Government.

Pointing to the prices of fur coats above.

This is the image he hates the most, and he uses it to constantly remind himself that the mermaid is more valuable than any real information about his race.

"The Mink Tribe gets 700,000 Berries, and even if the half-mink Tribe gets half off, they still get 350,000 Berries. Why are they still short 100 Berries?"

"..."

Thor's face showed utter shock.

How did I suddenly find myself short 100 Berries? Where did those 100 Berries go?!

"Brother~"

Rah tugged at Raabel's sleeve, gesturing for him to look at Saul.

"..."

Abel quietly put the price chart away again.

He swore!

I really didn't mean to poke at Thor's sore spot.

I never expected the World Government to give Thor such a small bounty. It should have been at least several hundred million. How come it was reduced?

The battle situation in Wano Country was entirely based on Morgans's words.

However, the World Government could not have been unaware of the battle situation in the Hive Sea.

"Kahn's bounty: 2 billion Berries".

Chapter 260 Ranking of the Top Ten Strongest in the Ocean (Part 2)

"Two billion?!"

"Do you remember when Rocks, the king of the seas, was the first pirate to break the billion-bounty mark? Are pirate prices really that high now? Is it that prices are rising across the entire ocean?"

"It's not that prices have gone up, it's that pirates have become stronger and information is flowing more freely. To be precise, as Morgans said, times have changed."

"With such a high bounty, it would be a waste not to choose to become one of the five kings of the sea, but to become a lackey arranged by the World Government."

"Who set up this 2 billion bounty? Wang Cai has only recently reached that level, so how come the bounty is so much higher than the standard of 1 billion?"

"..."

They surrounded Kahn's bounty poster, their eyes fixed on it.

The person on the wanted poster had short white hair and red eyes. Holding a Dragon's Roar sword, he was swinging it at his opponent in mid-air. The terrifying aura and frenzied killing intent almost emanated from the wanted poster, making people tremble.

Kahn's normal state is black eyes.

The fact that the red eyes only appear during battle indicates that the wanted poster was photographed during a fight. A closer look reveals that it was taken during the fierce battle with Roger. One has to admire the reporters in this world; they can capture photos from any angle.

Very professional!

The members admired the bounty poster, making clicking sounds as they looked on. None of them had ever seen such a high bounty, especially since it was for one of their own.

How amazing!

Even Kaido couldn't resist coming over to join in the fun. As one of the pirates who swore to inherit Rocks' will and surpass Rocks, the bounty was a good target to surpass.

He has not yet achieved it.

The members all turned to look in Morgans' direction.

"Guys."

Morgans said helplessly, "It's really not my fault. Kahn's performance in the Beehive Sea was too outstanding. Roger, the former captain of the three great pirate ships, was defeated, and news broke that 'Dark King' Rayleigh was killed in Wano Country. They don't know the specifics, and I can't just say it out loud."

"As a result, the people at the World Government discussed it and decided on a bounty of two billion. I can't change that. The bounties for important pirates have always been jointly determined by the Marine Headquarters and the World Government, with the World Government holding the dominant position. Kahn is a pirate that the Five Elders value."

"..."

After listening to the explanation, some members nodded, some pondered, and some were in a daze... Each had their own thoughts and expressions, revealing their individual personalities and characters.

"Kahn has a bounty of two billion."

Katakuri asked, "How many pirates on the high seas have a bounty exceeding two billion?"

"Four."

Morgans answered with certainty: "'Whitebeard' Newgate, 'Golden Lion' Shiki, 'Devil' Roger, 'Red Earl' Red Devil, that's four in total. The fifth to reach a bounty of two billion is Kahn, second only to the four legendary pirates of this era, and above a group of silver medalists among pirates."

These four are already great pirates who surpass countless others.

Each of them is a top-tier expert who has withstood the test. The four of them are currently above most of the silver medalists. As for who will become the gold medalist, that depends on who can have the last laugh.

"The Five Kings will likely be ranked in this order, which means at least half of them will be former members of the Rocks Pirates. I don't know what the World Government is thinking, but I know they want Kahn to become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

"Compared to the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the Five Kings focus on scale, influence, and so on..."

"Your strength is too exaggerated to be a Shichibukai. Of course, if you were the leader who suppressed the other Shichibukai, then it wouldn't be an exaggeration. It's just that Kahn wouldn't be willing to go through the trouble of helping the World Government deal with the other Shichibukai."

“If we refuse, they will naturally push our organization into the position of one of the Five Kings. This position is very suitable for us.”

"..."

The members understood everything they could.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, their organization will become one of the Five Kings, the Five Kings recognized throughout the entire sea.

"The Roger Pirates are almost disintegrating. They were an elite force with a pitifully small number of members, and we wiped out half of them. With only a handful of people, the Roger Pirates aren't qualified to be recognized as one of the Five Kings, are they?"
