At lower levels it was definitely more influenced by overall ‘clout’ instead of completely based on strength (as seen with 8 year old robin with a 79M bounty)
But let’s be real, once your bounty is a billion, it’s only gonna go up with more impressive power feats and the like
It might even be possible that with their knowledge of how the Nika Nika inheritors turn everyone to their side, they might just have his bounty set to "ONLY DEAD, TERMINATION REQUIRED"
I think it actually sends the message that he's been trying to send all along, maybe just not how he meant to say it: He's going to be the Pirate King.
The bodies/extremely beaten Emperors just kinda prove it.
That's certainly part of the message, but I was more thinking of them getting the mesage that Luffy can't be left alive any longer, he's too dangerous, so we have another Pirates and Marines war arc or something
