The pirate king, Gol D. Roger, is one of the most important characters in the world One piece. He was a man who stood at the pinnacle of his era in both power and infamy. Roger was the only person to complete the circumnavigation of the world and reach the last island in the Grand Line, Laugh Tale. His exploits made him incredibly infamous around the world and have earned him a bounty of 5,564,800,000 berries to this day. Roger's bounty is the highest any character has One piece. However, in the Final Saga, several powerful individuals have the potential to not only rival this bounty, but surpass it as the story progresses.
One Piece: The 39 Strongest Characters in the Series
These are the strongest characters that sail the seas of the One Piece world.
Monkey D. Luffy
-
Current reward: 3 billion berries
Monkey D. Luffy he is the main character One piece and the man who is destined to become the future pirate king. Since Luffy achieves the same feat as Roger, it stands to reason that he will receive a similar reward. Luffy soon surpasses the 5 billion bounty mark and also surpasses Roger in terms of bounty as he directly confronts the world government, something Roger never did.
In this sense, Luffy will play a much more prominent role than the former Pirate King and will receive a much higher reward. His chances of surpassing Roger are the highest of any character in the story.
Blackbeard
-
Current reward: 3.996 billion berries
Blackbeard he is the captain of the Blackbeard Pirates and is one of the four sea emperors in the New World. Over the years he has acquired a very powerful pirate crew and his rise in power and infamy is unprecedented. In just two years, Blackbeard has acquired one of the strongest crews in the entire world and received a reward of 3.996 billion berries, which is truly shocking. What's more, Blackbeard still hasn't reached his full power and continues to evolve even further as he hunts down powerful Devil Fruits and ancient weapons. As the Final Saga of One Piece continues, Blackbeard will rise in overall importance and commit disgraces that will make his reward even higher.
It is a fact that Blackbeard is actually a direct descendant of Davy Jones. Blackbeard will most certainly be one of the most infamous people the world government would like to exterminate immediately. His special bloodline, as well as his desire for power and unprecedented destruction, will lead him to rise when it comes to reward. Added to that is the fact that he's also aiming for One Piece, and if he gets to Laugh Tale under certain circumstances, his reward will definitely exceed Roger's.
Shanks
-
Current reward: 4.0489 billion berries
Shanks is one of the most peculiar characters in the world of One Piece, due to the fact that he walks a very fine line between a celestial dragon and an ordinary human. He is known to be a child prodigy and was trained directly by Gol D. Roger when he was still a child. Since then, Shanks has established himself as a powerful force on the seas, even becoming a Yonk of the Sea. Shanks has a strength that hardly anyone can rival. In fact, he even managed to defeat Nidhoggr from the One Piece world, which even King Harald, who was much stronger than Rocks D. Xebec at the time, couldn't do.
In terms of strength, Shanks was already able to rival Roger and might even surpass him in the Final Saga. He claimed that she was openly shooting for him One pieceand if he reaches the Final Island, his reward will be over 5 billion berries and might even surpass Roger's reward. Shanks' importance will only grow in the story from here on out, and it goes without saying that Oda will focus a lot more on him from here on out.
One Piece finally welcomes its new strongest pirate in Elbaph
The Elbaph arc finally crowns Shanks as the strongest human, above the likes of Luffy and Loki.
Buggy
-
Current reward: 3.189 billion berries
Buggy he is one of the four Sea Emperors who recently achieved this position after the fall of Big Mom and Kaid. Right now, Buggy is easily one of the most interesting characters in the story, especially when he keeps failing. More than that, Buggy is also targeting One Piece at this point, and that basically means he has a good chance of getting this treasure.
It should be remembered that Buggy and Shanks promised to reach the Laugh Tale and get the One Piece together, and this is something that Oda must fulfill as the story continues. If Buggy reaches the Laugh Tale and gets the One Piece, he will definitely get a reward of over 5 billion berries. Buggy's entire gag failed upwards and he might even be recognized as a pirate king or a god, even though he isn't. It's the end of a story that makes him one of the most infamous men on the seas.

Nero Ima
Nero Ima is the King of the World and quite easily the strongest character in all of One Piece in the Final Saga. Normally, Imu wouldn't have a bounty on his head because he's simply the head of the world government that controls the marines, but the establishment of the Cross Guild completely flipped the script.
The Cross Guild gives bounties for marines they want to eliminate completely. It's not absurd to see them listing bounties on targets from the World Government, given that they are openly rebelling against them. If Imu's identity becomes known to the world, which is likely to happen sooner rather than later, then Guild Cross will most likely put a bounty on his head as well. If Imu gets a reward, it will definitely be higher than 5 billion berries, and it might even be closer to a number like 10 billion, considering that he is the king of the whole world and someone the whole world wants to decapitate.
Figarland shamrock
Figaland trefoil he is one of the most important members of the world government and stands tall as one of the holy knights. Shamrock is said to be just as skilled as Shanks, and also has the Depths Covenant with Imu, which gives him immortality, infinite regeneration, and superhuman strength. He also has a special sword with the power of the Cerberus Devil Fruit that he used in the Elbaf Arc.
It's clear that Shamrock is just as dangerous as Shanks, plus he's a sky dragon, making him a sought-after target for individuals from all over the world. Shamrock could very well receive a reward from the Cross Guild, and since Akainu's reward is 5 billion berries, Shamrock could receive an even higher reward that could bring him close to 6 billion.
Five elders
Five elders they are the ruling authority of the world and are known to be the highest power in world government for the common man. Since the Cross Guild is at war with the World Government, it wouldn't be a surprise to know that they've put up bounties for the Five Elders as well.
As they are the ruling authority of the world, their rewards are sure to be incredibly high. It wouldn't be a surprise if their rewards were greater than the 6 billion berries in the Final Saga.
