The new emperors of the fragmented world

  • Kaido and Big Mom fell and changed the order forever

  • Luffy and Buggy lined up with Yonko

The Four Emperors have existed in the One Piece universe for a long time. While it is not known exactly when they were founded, the consensus is that they came into being after Roger became the Pirate King and ushered in the Age of the Great Pirates. However, some pirates were considered elite even before the Yonko system was deployed. After Roger's death, there was Yonko Kaido, Big Mom, Whitebeard, and possibly another mystery person that fans don't know much about. 6 years ago, Shanks, then an elite pirate, took Yonko's place and the order that fans saw at the beginning of the story was complete. In the Water 7 saga, the four emperors are revealed by Garp to be Whitebeard, Shanks, Big Mom, and Kaido. This order was very powerful, but it underwent many changes over time. Whitebeard met his demise in the Paramount War arc, and Blackbeard only rose through the ranks.

At some point during the time jump, Blackbeard ascended to the official position of Emperor and acquired 2.247 billion berries. In the aftermath of One Piece, Yonko's order has changed once again, especially after the events of the Wano Country Arc. With the fall of Kaido and Big Mom, two new emperors were chosen, Luffy and Buggy.

Luffy earned the status of an emperor due to defeating Kaido and playing a pivotal role in the downfall of two emperors, while Buggy became emperor simply because of his incredible pedigree and at the same time, the consensus among the people of the country. The world that raised Mihawk and Crocodile and made them his followers. As such, the new order of the Emperor created in One Piece includes Luffy, Buggy, Blackbeard, and Shanks.

Why do new emperors need higher bounties?

Unlike the previous era of emperors, the new emperors are still somehow on the rise. This applies to each and every one of them, and at the same time, they are much more ambitious than previous emperors. For example, fans know that Luffy is the man who will become the Pirate King, which obviously means that as he gets stronger over time, his bounty will increase. Blackbeard, although very strong, is nowhere near the end of the article, and that won't stop anytime soon in the Final Saga. Blackbeard also gets more rewards at some point in the following arc.

I look at Buggy, he's only been emperor for a few weeks and the only way he can go from here is up. Buggy and his guild are a fledgling organization and will certainly gain power and influence over time. As this happens, Buggy tries to get closer to One Piece and with it, higher rewards.

This leaves Shanks, who until recently was known as a relatively peaceful pirate. But, now, he has started acting erratically, which has now made the world government wary of him.

The God Knights are a very powerful group. Are they on the same level as Yunko's crew in One Piece?

At the same time, Shanks is now openly gunning for them each pieceIt means it is getting serious now. All things considered, Shanks would be more infamous now than ever, and his actions would certainly earn him an even higher reward, possibly after the events of Elbauf.

As such, each new emperor will likely receive a new bounty, possibly following the events of Elbauf, one way or another. This basically sets them up as the main players to claim it each pieceAnd one of them reaches the final island, grabs the treasure, and unleashes hell on the world by revealing the secrets found there.

New rewards of the four emperors after Elbauf

Shanks will likely still have the top prize

Of course, fans may be wondering what privileges the new emperors will have after the events of Elbauf. It is very difficult to predict exactly what the rewards will be, but it is safe to say that some of them will increase significantly. For example, Luffy still only has three billion berries, and fans know he deserves a lot more, simply based on the fact that he's just as infamous as Kid and Law. There is no reason why he should have the same tip level as Kid or Love. Besides, he has achieved a lot since then and should deserve a battery bonus of 4 billion or even more.

For other emperors, their increase in bounty depends on what they do in Arc Elbaf. Blackbeard currently has 3.996 billion berries, which means his bounty increase won't be as dramatic as expected. But, Blackbeard still has to break into the 5 billion club, or he has to hover around it. It looks like he's planning to attack Marijua, as hinted at in the Elbauf arc, and it's entirely possible that he'll succeed in doing so. If he does this, then it is inevitable for him to get an even higher reward that reaches four billion.

Then there's Buggy, whose Cross Guild is just getting started. A higher bounty for Buggy is inevitable because the Cross Guild will make sweeping moves over time, and as this happens, Buggy will become more infamous. Finally, Shanks has 4.0489 billion berries and that reward alone is high enough. But, Shanks has been quietly on the sidelines for a while, and now that he's finally on the move, his power will surely force the World Government to increase his bounty even further. Shanks is the next Roger, and it shouldn't come as a surprise to fans that his bounty is hovering around the 5 billion berry mark after the Elbauf arc ends.
