contents Motivated by the first observation of CP violation in baryon decays, we study the topological amplitudes of bottom baryon decays in the $SU(3)_F$ limit. The topological diagrams of the charmless two-body decays of bottom baryons are presented in detail. The linear relations between topologies and $SU(3)$ irreducible amplitudes are derived through tensor contraction and $SU(3)$ decomposition. Four amplitudes among the 13 independent amplitudes are critical to the CP asymmetries. The small CP asymmetries might indicate small relative strong phases between amplitudes $A_2$ and $A_{12,14}^\prime$. To avoid them, we suggest measuring CP asymmetries in the $Ξ^0_b\to pK^-$ and $Ξ^-_b\to Λ^0 K^-$ decays. Furthermore, the Körner-Pati-Woo theorem can be tested by measuring the branching fractions of the $Λ_b^0\toΣ^0K^0_S$ and $Λ_b^0\toΣ^-K^+$ modes.
