As a yonkou she should be at least a 100 billion. She was like 2-3 years older when she got her 500 million bounty, wasn't even a teenager yet and seemed like she didn't have a crew with her at the time as well. (Like Weevile)

at least 100 billion ? That is absurd
The purpose of a bounty is to tempt people to collect them. If at some point the the criminal is so strong that the bounty can't be collected there is no point in raising the money. And if for what ever reason someone does beat one they will break the world economy by handing out that much money.
For the record that is 100.000.000.000
While Luffy's is --------------500.000.000
That is 200 x as much as one of the highest revealed bounties in the series. Not very plausible

Big Mom's bounty isn't going to be 100x the bounty of her strongest subordinate.

As yonkou here bounty cannot be close to her subordinates, I mean as a child her bounty was the same as current luffy. She didn't even reach her teenage years yet so why wouldn't her bounty grow?
We need to see some crazy amount of numbers from a yonkou since they are the strongest pirates in the word and they've done the most damage (besides shanks) in the world. What else can it be? It's certainly not 2 billion.

Doesn't she also have tittle of strongest woman (like how whitebeard had strongest man) as well

The purpose of placing bounties is for the bounty hunters or others try to kill that person or beat thay person and send to navy. If its a yonko,what is the purpose of bounty? Can some bounty hunters that have balls try to take the head of the yonko? 100,000,000 is absurd bro. Theres no point placing bounties to the yonko. 1,000,000 is too much for them. Think about it bro
BM was 6 years old when her parents left her on Elbaf and considering they were celebrating one of her birthdays, she must have been at least 7 years old when she devoured Mother Caramel and most likely she received her 50m bounty soon afterwards. Now it's kinda hard to estimate her age on the moment she got her 500m bounty, but she was definitely a few years older by then. Still very young, but definitely older and there is very well a fundamental difference here between a 2 year old and a 12 year old.
Secondly the higher a bounty is, the more difficult it becomes to increase it. Around 1 billion is kinda the limit for non-Yonkou, so just having a bounty twice of that would already be acceptable as there is no one who would have a bounty that comes even close. The space between 1 billion and 2 billion is a complete vacuum. But even if you consider that to be too low, jumping immediately to a 100 billion without any valid reason is ridiculous. That number is so high that if the WG ever had to pay it, it could potentially cause an economic crisis. 99.9% of all the bounties in the world would not pass the 1 billion threshold, but then you have 4-5 people who suddenly have one a 100 times that?
Personally I always was more inclined to believe the Yonkou don't even have active bounties anymore for this exact reason: they should be so high it would invalidate the point of even having a bounty in the first place.
Yeah.

Her parents left her at Elbaf at the age of 5 and she consumed/killed mother carmel at the age she just turned 6 years old. She received her first 50 million bounty at that very same age because the story said that the big mom pirates started with her and that guy who witness the whole thing (in the caption).
2-3 years later from then (which I assumed because it took luffy 2 years to get 500 milli bounty) is still going to be around the age of 8 or 9 years old. I don't think she was 12 years old with a 500 million, by then she should've assembled a legitimate crew by then.
The same concept and portrayal of strength is almost the same as weevil.
Then what would happen if Kaidou and Shanks come out with 2 billion bounty commanders? It's not far-fetch considering the fact that we went from Ace a 550 million to Jack/Dogtooth being 1 billion bounty. That's literally 500 million more.
5 or 6 years old doesn't matter that much. The point is however that at the time she received her 500m bounty, she was definitely several years older. It's hard to estimate how old now exactly as she was definitely not adult yet, but she certainly was not a toddler of 2 years old. And I really don't get why you drag Weevil into this as we know absolutely nothing about him, so you can't draw a parallel with here.
And why would you even assume they have 2 billion bounty commanders? Yes it's quite far-fetched, but above all completely baseless and non-sensical. Ace is not valid reference point as he was special. The bounties of Marco, Jose and Vista would be far more appropriated, but we don't know them. There's also a huge difference here as jumping from 500m to 1000m and from 1000m to 2000m are not the same as the higher a bounty becomes, the more difficult it is to increase it.
People also seem to forget that all the Yonkou are of equal strength. There are not 4 emperors because they all thought that was a nice number, but because they had no other option than to tolerate one another. It's a balance that came into being almost in a natural way. So that Shanks or Kaidou would have a subordinate that's in a completely different league than Dogtooth, is highly questionable. If that was the case, they wouldn't be stuck in a stalemate as someone that has a bounty of 2 billion should be able to take on multiple commanders at the same time.
I don't dare predict anything about Shanks as he has always been the odd one out, but in regards to Kaidou I assume that Jack is his 2nd strongest commander at best as from a narrative point of view it's more interesting to not immediately introduce the strongest commander from the start. But I'm going to predict that the latter bounty's will at best be around 1.1 billion, take a few millions more or less.
I think we should also note that bounties are basically how badly marines want you in, it's simply a tool to tempt people into going for you. The reason can then be:
>Is powerful and thus has proper bounty
>Is a threat to civilians
>Has top-secret info
Or what I think is case with BM and Ace
>Has potential to be a big threat
How can anyone come up with a reason other than "This is how much marines want you in jail" for bounties, is beyond me.
It's common sense really, both as a reader and in-OP world.
With that said, I don't think it would be logical to give yonkous bounties, like Caliburn said they're equals, no one else has a chance at them, would be stupid to make unknowing people go after them for no reason.

I am guessing it should be 5 billion berries or more , lmao not 500 that would be too much mate . Yes it sound convenient she had 500 million at around luffy's age also maybe bounty remains constant according to the danger given to World Govt so need to look in that consideration i guess.
