The Elbaf Arc of One Piece unfolds with remarkable excitement, and just before a recently announced two-week hiatus by Oda, he released an exceptional chapter teeming with vital information, breathtaking adventures in the land of Giants, and, to the astonishment of readers, the unveiling of two monumental bounties. Fans were not anticipating such significant bounty reveals at this early stage, yet their excitement swells with this revelation from the author in the arc’s opening chapters.
While many fans may mistakenly think this bounty refers to a member of the Straw Hat crew, it actually pertains to two iconic figures from Elbaf that viewers are intimately familiar with, the Co-captains of the Giant Warrior Pirates, Dorry and Brogy.
Dorry and Brogy’s Previous Bounties
- Introduced on Little Garden, Dorry and Brogy had a bounty of 100 Million Berries each.
Dorry and Brogy made their debut during the pre-timeskip era of One Piece. When the Straw Hat Pirates first entered the Grand Line, their journey began at Whiskey Peak before leading them to Little Garden—a prehistoric island. Here, fans were introduced to the Giant race for the first time, witnessing Dorry and Brogy entrenched in their age-old duel. The conflict stemmed from a simple competition for hunting the larger prey. Their battle reflects the pride of Elbaf, signifying they will relentlessly fight until a single victor emerges. Despite their aged weapons and declining strength, both warriors showcased valor during their time on Little Garden.
“The only thing we can’t cut is a snake soaked in blood!”– Dorry and Brogy
At that time, these legendary Giants had a bounty of 100 million berries each—an impressive figure in that era, although it now seems trivial. It’s essential for fans to contextualize that this bounty was set around a century ago, at a time when they may not have been as powerful as they are today. Their prolonged inactivity, away from the Government’s scrutiny, might have suggested that there was no immediate need to reassess their bounties, making the 100 million berry figure appropriate for that period. After all, 100 million berries held significant value a century ago, equating to billions in today’s terms.
Dorry and Brogy’s New Bounties – 1.8 Billion Berries
Both Dorry and Brogy Have A 1.8 Billion Berry Bounty
Dorry and Brogy resurfaced in the Final Saga of One Piece, with their return coinciding with Shanks’ departure from the nation of Elbaf. During this time, Kid launched an offensive against Elbaf, prompting Shanks to neutralize the Kid Pirates. With assistance from Dorry and Brogy, the Victoria Punk was sunk, and they continued to play pivotal roles in the Egghead arc. The duo quickly made their way to Egghead to support Luffy, taking great risks in their quest for the Sun God, ultimately succeeding in their mission.
“1.8 billion? We didn’t intend to return to the world!”– Dorry and Brogy
Following their victories, Dorry and Brogy attempted to escort Luffy back to Elbaf, albeit facing challenges that caused their crew to temporarily separate. However, it has now been confirmed that Luffy and his companions have reunited. This means that Dorry and Brogy have returned to active status, and Oda has seized the moment to disclose the updated bounties for the Co-captains of the Giant Warrior Pirates. The revised bounty stands at a staggering 1.8 billion berries each, a truly astonishing figure.
This revelation didn’t catch fans off guard; Dorry and Brogy boast some of the strongest capabilities in One Piece, which makes their high bounties justified. Their exhibition during the Egghead arc was breathtaking. They not only thwarted the Kid Pirates but also confronted the Five Elders, with Dorry and Brogy holding their ground and even pushing back opponents like Warcury. Given such noteworthy performances, a 100 million berry bounty would have been laughably inadequate. Oda made the right call in updating their figures to reflect their power, resulting in each having a bounty of 1.8 billion berries, leaving the fanbase buzzing with excitement.
Amidst this shocking revelation, it’s even more remarkable to recognize that Dorry and Brogy are Co-captains of the Giant Warrior Pirates. This indicates that their crew’s total bounty stands at an extraordinary 3.6 billion berries, an exceptional feat emphasizing the crew’s formidable nature—surpassing that of two of the four Emperors.
Justifying Dorry and Brogy’s New Bounties
They Are Fearsome Beasts and Leaders of Elbaf’s Giants
Dorry and Brogy undoubtedly merit their updated bounties, irrespective of public opinion. These Giants showcase extraordinary resilience, capable of absorbing immense amounts of damage and exhibiting significant strength and endurance owing to their giant heritage. As Warriors from Elbaf, they represent the mightiest race in the world of One Piece. Their tremendous power is evident—had they so desired, they could have crowned Big Mom as the King of the Pirates without even needing to intervene themselves.
Additionally, their strengths extend to formidable Haki capabilities. The Spear of Elbaf, a technique even imitated by Big Mom, originates from them. Even equipped with their old, ineffective weapons, they effortlessly vanquished an island-devouring creature. Armed with new weapons and enhanced strength, they now stand capable of razing whole islands or cities in a single blow. During their encounters on Egghead, they not only endured clashes with the Elders but were largely unfazed. Watching such powerful beings confront the Elders was certainly surprising; however, putting their newly revealed bounties in context helps elucidate the situation.
Dorry and Brogy are undeniably incredible forces regardless of how fans view them. They stand at the pinnacle of their strength, considering Giants can live for over 400 years. There remains no doubt that their freshly assigned bounties are entirely deserved.
Expect thrilling displays from both Dorry and Brogy in the ongoing Elbaf arc of One Piece, where they will once again demonstrate their might and reinforce why they rightfully possess these towering bounties.
