From what I recall, Kid's bounty was increased so highly because he has shown that he's very willing to hurt civilians.

I think at this point, it's just another way to represent their power and influence. You're right, there probably aren't many individuals or groups of people who have the balls or ability to go after any one with more than 300+ mill bounty. But you might have strong pirates like Shichibukai who might be interested in getting a bounty if they feel they can take the person out without dying. Maybe there are new world individuals who can easily bag people below a certain amount.

While the jokes with Momo and the fan service were nice I would have liked Zoro and Kinemon to resolve the issue of Ryuuma's Shuusui. As it stands it was merely swept aside by Robin/Momo and may never be addressed again with it being an issue that is implied to be resolved.

OHKO'd (and theoretically could have followed up on and killed) Caribou, who was a super rookie with a 210 million bounty. Given Law's description about how if you went up against an Emperor, you probably wouldn't even see him, I think it's safe to say there are plenty of people who can "bag" multi-hundred million bounty pirates.

He didn't want to leave the marines but got kicked out or couldn't come back because of his pride after losing the duel etc. What I gathered from it was that Kuzan has something he's striving for, rather than being an aimless man after leaving the marines. Thats what his speech was getting at, he sees situations differently now he's not a marine, different point of view creates motivation towards new goals. Yes, I felt the same after reading it, doflamingo's little "speech" was about the fact you could see the difference between an aimless man and a determined one. I guess he meant that Kuzan isn't just wandering around without goal. Atleast thats how I interpreted that conversation. Anyway, it was quite a funny chapter, considering it's still just short after the Punk Hazard arc and this is more of an in-between chapter, it was quite a good one building alot of hype for the next one and probaly Doflamingo as the next big opponent. Gonna be epic I'm sure!
Definitely this with the chinese translation.

This chapter WTFFFFFFFFFFFFF
|
bounty doesn't mean strength, far from it. Remember how Caesar raped luffy and everybody in their first encounter? If he were to cut off their heads instead of capturing them that would have been the end of one piece, same with crocodile when luffy first fought him. Fruit abilities can't be measure with the dragonballz power level. stop trying to equate bounty with how strong someone is. Another example would be no amount of haki can deal with a sniper that can shoot you 10miles away like Van Augur, he could have shot akainu full of seastone bullets and killed him on the spot during the ship exchange scene if not for blackbread chickening it out and ran for it.
about the chapter, we still don't know what exactly doflamingo's ability is yet.

You got a point regarding the bounty hunters. I guess some of the shichibukai would be capable of taking down someone like Kid - maybe Mihawk. Other than that i doubt that there are more than a few people in the One Piece university that has not been introduced yet that are not a part of a Yonko crew, that would be able to take down someone as Kid or Luffy. On the other hand we have yet to see which kind of people that are roaming around in the New World

On the other hand, you get Blackbeard chasing Luffy explicitly for his "head worth 100 million" so there has to be some way for pirates to collect the bounties on other pirates. I think we just don't see people die or get captured enough to really make collecting on the bounties an important part of the story. It's really there just to help determine what the WG thinks the threat level of the person is and therefore by extension an estimate of their power level.

Other than that i doubt that there are more than a few people in the One Piece university that has not been introduced yet that are not a part of a Yonko crew, that would be able to take down someone as Kid or Luffy. On the other hand we have yet to see which kind of people that are roaming around in the New World On the other hand, you get Blackbeard chasing Luffy explicitly for his "head worth 100 million" so there has to be some way for pirates to collect the bounties on other pirates. I think we just don't see people die or get captured enough to really make collecting on the bounties an important part of the story. It's really there just to help determine what the WG thinks the threat level of the person is and therefore by extension an estimate of their power level. This isn't a good example. Blackbeard was trying to join the Shichibukai, and was chasing Luffy for a way to gain infamy / prove himself by taking down somebody so notable.
