ONE PIECE © 1997 by Eiichiro Oda/SHUEISHA Inc.

Every pirate in One Piece aspires to have a high bounty! Bounty high enough that his/her name could shudder his enemies!

Prior to the two year time skip, we were introduced to the Worst Generation Pirates. The twelve infamous pirates who emerged immediately before the beginning of the Summit War of Marineford.

Although bounties do not reflect the direct strength of a pirate, they show just how dangerous they are to the world government.

In this article, we will rank the pirates from the worst generation in accordance to their revealed bounty in the Egghead Island arc!

10) X Drake

Bounty: 222,000,000 Berries

X Drake, a.k.a. Red Flag, is the captain of the Drake Pirates and one of the 11 supernovas with the current bounty of 222,000,000 Berries.

In reality, he is a member of the Marine’s Secret Unit SWORDS and he is working undercover as a pirate.

He was the real admiral of the Marines and he is also the son of an X-marine turned pirate, Deiz Barrels.

According to his undercover story, he defected from his position as rear admiral and founded the Drake Pirates. He was most likely given this bounty to help with his cover story.

This would also officially make Drake a Supernova and part of the Worst Generation.

He later joined the Beasts Pirates, acting as a spy in Kaido’s crew.

9) Basil Hawkins

Bounty: 320,000,000 Berries

Age: 31 years old

Basil Hawkins’ first known bounty was 249,000,000 Berries as the captain of the Hawkins Pirates. This officially made him a Supernova and part of the worst generation.

After his encounter with Kaidou, he joined the Beasts Pirates, where he saw increase inhis bounty to the current amount. He also became one of the crew’s Shinuichi, an extremely powerful and infamous pirate crew led by their governor-general Kaifou.

Shinuichi were based in Wano Country, with Onigashima serving as their headquarters.

There’s no need for a formal introduction for this man, as we have seen him grow since he was a snotty brat. 

Throughout this journey, Luffy has remained consistent with his ideals and behavior, never letting power get into his head. With the gear 5 and Joyboy reveal, Luffy has become the epitome of “free”; Luffy is the World Government’s biggest enemy! 

Still, his bounty is only 3,000,000,000 Berries! This is because Luffy hasn’t learned how to control his powers! However, there is no doubt in anybody’s mind that Luffy will become the new King of Pirates!

He killed one of his closest crewmates for the Yami Yami no Mi. Currently, the only character to possess two Devil Fruits’ powers, Blackbeard is one of the strongest characters right now!
