Every bounty is an estimate as there is no official bounty guidebook that the WG refer to when giving them. So the numerical difference between Zoro and Sanji's bounties back then isn't as important as the fact that Zoro was given a higher number because he beat a stronger opponent. Other than the people they beat, there was no difference between their contributions in the arc so if participation was all that was necessary then their bounties should have been equal. In fact the bounties of all of the crew except Luffy should have been equal.Nope, that's not true.
CP9 have bounties.
Flaw in your absurd claim here is how can there be a 53m gap when the only difference between Zoro and Sanji was 20 Doriki? Lol, that's a somewhat silly thing.
If they're of equal strength, they should have had similar bounties. They didn't despite defeating people of literally the same strength.
Nami got a 50m bounty increase at Dressrosa despite not having fought a single person; Brook's bounty increased by 50m despite doing nothing significant strength-wise.
Wrong.
Blackbeard kept a low profile, not his crew.
20m was given for the crimes he committed. Not a reflection of strength, lol.
Burgess alone could argualbly have wiped the entire SH crew himself pre-skip given that they weren't strong at all. Burgess was a Haki user who was highly ranked and is highly ranked amongst the BB Pirates.
Hilarious argument given that even Brook was 30m, yet Burgess who was many time stronger was only 20m? Doesn't make sense that Brook pre-skip would be of a higher bounty if it were based on strength, lol.
Even the fact that Luffy with a 30m beri in his first escapades is higher than Burgess who was definitely stronger than Luffy was when he first set out. If bounty reflects strength.
Arlong had a 20m bounty. It would be delusional to think Arlong was the same strength tier as Burgess.

False.
Bounty only increases as the magnitude of crime increases.
80m wouldn't reflect the strength of someone like Hancock given that she has all forms of Haki.
Many bounties do not reflect strength.
Luffy had a pre-skip bounty of 400m, and arguably anyone we know now would have defeated him have less. Cavendish is a Haki user and strong enough to deflect Chinjao's attacks with a mere 280m whereas Luffy couldn't do a thing to a Pacifista.
Strength cannot be appraised if the fight is not seen. WG barely ever see the fights any of the SHs get into:
The WG have no idea how Luffy won whether it was by poisoning or he allied or he used underhanded tactics. All that is known is the conclusion. Conclusions aren't proof of details (strength), it's only proof of the result.
- Crocodile vs Luffy was underground
- Katakur vs Luffy was in an inaccessible place
- Cracker vs Luffy was unseen by anyone
They can only appraise the scale of the incident, they can't appraise the strength because they saw nothing of it.
Urogue's likely to have a new bounty that hasn't been revealed yet. It's uncertain if it'll take his win against Big Mom's commander into account though since it seemed like a lowkey operation that didn't escalate into a WCI arc level event. Cracker beat him shortly after so it's possible the WG don't know about it.
Sengoku didn't know who Laffitte was when he interrupted their meeting with the Shichibukais. So it stands to reason that Blackbeard's entire crew were not making any waves before Blackbeard decided to make his move. His crew wouldn't have been running wild while their captain wanted to stay low, and as far as we know, Burgess included.
The WG also do not always cross reference the bounties they give other pirates when giving new ones as there are thousands of them. There's no methodology in the bounty system so it's always an estimate and as a result there are inconsistencies between bounty heads of people from separate crews. Within specific crews, the pattern is usually that the strongest have the highest bounties while the lesser officers have lower bounties.

It's the new number that corresponds to the crime and the ability of a person, not the increase. Luffy's bounty only went up by 100 after gatecrashing the war which is less than the increase he got after water 7. It's because the WG don't just add onto a person's existing bounty, they give them a whole new one.Didn't Jabra and Kaku had almost the same Douriki?
I think Zoro bounty was much higher because he already had a Bounty before.
