Leviathans

The Leviathans are, according to the global bounty hunting database, the world's most infamous and powerful criminals across the world. They are not in alliance with one another and instead prefer to follow their own agenda and pursue their own goals.

Leviathans lie at the very top of the Menace Pyramid.

The Title of Leviathan
Leviathans are determined based on two factors: the impact of their criminal activity and the difficulty it would take to claim the bounty on their heads. Unlike the rest of the world's wanted criminals, Leviathans are not to be apprehended and instead it is mandatory to kill them in order to receive the reward for their head, as it is believed there is no prison capable of holding such dangerous individuals.

Current Leviathans
At the start of the series, there were five known Leviathans: Blackbeard, Garibaldi, Kane, The Maestro, and Mariam. Davy Jones became the sixth Leviathan following the defeat of Melville.
