This article contains spoilers from One Piece’s Elbaf Arc.

Zoro is one ofOne Piece’smost important characters, and he is also among the strongest. Fans know thatZoro aims to become the strongest swordsman in the world, and to do that, he needs to beat Mihawk. Furthermore, Zoro also intends to do all he can to make Luffy the Pirate King.

All his goals require him to grow stronger, and in the world of pirates, growing stronger means higher infamy. Zoro is already quite dangerous to the World Government, and his current bounty is proof of that. But, it is only a small glimpse of what Zoro is going to be in the future. AfterOne Piece’sElbaf, Zoro’s bounty will be much higher, and rightly so.

Zoro’s Latest Bounty Is 1.111 Billion Berries

Zoro is already a very powerful pirate, and his latest bounty is proof of that. As fans know, Wano was significant for Zoro. Not only did he end up fighting Kaido and scarring him, but he also fought and beat King, one of his three right-hand men. Zoro also gained Conqueror’s Haki in Wano, and although he didn’t know it, he used it quite well in the fight against King. At the end of the day, Zoro managed to push beyond all limits and defeated King, a man worth 1.390 billion berries, in Wano. At the end of the arc, everything that he did earned him a bounty of 1.111 billion berries.

Zoro Will Get Stronger In Elbaf

Right Now, He’s One Step Away From Mihawk

Zoro’s bounty is certainly impressive, but given that he’s about to gain even greater power, it is sure to grow. In Elbaf, Oda has already established that Zoro will learn to control Conqueror’s Haki. At this point, he doesn’t know how to control this Haki, and he relies entirely on Enma. That said, Zoro will have to address that and learn to control it properly. It is with this Haki that Zoro can reach the top and that’s why he must learn to channel it properly.

Zoro Will also fight against the Holt Knights in Elbaf, and to damage them, he needs to control Conqueror’s Haki properly. In other words, Zoro will have to get stronger, as always.

Zoro’s Post-Elbaf Bounty Will Be Close to 2 Billion Berries

After Elbaf,fans can expect Zoro to have fought and beaten Holy Knights, and at the same time, gained control over Conqueror’s Haki. Once that happens, the World Government will have to recognize him as a big threat, and increase his bounty. Zoro should be worth around 2 billion berries at the end of the arc, and that is a figure he truly deserves. Once Zoro leaves Elbaf, he should be at the entry Yonko level, especially since what comes next needs him at that level.
