[@annakareninacamara6580]

@@newt2120 i don't think so, I think it's just a different take on the misconception that Ace was the 'chosen one'. Like, Whitebeard thought he'd be the King of Pirates, Roger thought his son would be Joyboy, Shanks was probably looking for him to give the Nika fruit, and Ace himself thought he was the one destined to defeat Blackeard. Now we know Luffy is the one destined to fulfill all of these things, so he'll also be the one to beat BB

I like how he made black beard the complete opposite from just the first encounter, everything luffy liked he hated and just how these fruits are gonna be polar opposite is a cool build

[@Rags_222]

As many people in the comments have said blackbeard has a black hole power, but what no one is mentioning is how he has the power of white holes at his disposal aswell. The tremor tremor fruit has shown that users can coat their hand in a force that repels all matter away from the center, this is also known as a white hole. Just an observation that I noticed rewatching some of the cool moments of marine ford (when whitebneard punches akainu into the ground his fist doesnt connect and akainu is pushed away from his fist)

[@jillesvandermolen4594]

I feel that the moon has rather positive symbolism in One Piece and therefore doesn’t fit as an opposite of the sun god. A more science based opposite of the sun would be a black hole and Blackbeard’s fruit is basically a black hole fruit. So in my opinion Blackbeard and Luffy are already perfect opposites without Teach having a god-fruit. I’m perfectly happy with his fruit being a weird Logia and the dude having some other strange quirk that lets him have multiple fruits.

[@sndpl15]

Actually it's my first time seeing those thepry that are related to number 3. Maybe he is actually a hito-hito nomi user and actually based on god. But not moon god. Maybe it's Hades. Becouse as you can see hades is one of the 3 major god of mythology hades power is like same to Blackbeard

[@charleswright8294]

Pretty sure blackbeards darkness is similar to that of a black hole, having so much gravity that no light escapes, so it makes sense that he can suck things in, he actually physically holds together df users so their powers cant activate, and this gravity also makes it so damage cant escape from him either.

[@shaikhabdulkalam4001]

Hey, I have a theory here 😃 1. Garp wasn't mad on Shanks because he inspired luffy to become pirate, but he was mad on that shanks let luffy eat mythical zoan fruit which government wanted so badly. Garp didn't leave him to Dadan he hide luffy from World government just like Ace. 2. As you told shanks knew that luffy have to die once for his awakening, maybe the same thing garp already knew. In post water seven arc we saw that luffy said his grandpa threw him from Mountains, hard practice, etc. Maybe garp was trying to awaken luffy's fruit. This is just my theory, you analyse this Byie ✌🏼

[@Hariprasad-cd5bi]

The 2nd point is flawed though. To be awakened, the user must have enough mental & physical strength compatible to the DF (as per doflamingo explaining to luffy). Since luffy was a little kid when Garp did it all, no way it could awake 🚶🏽‍♂️. Seeing admirals / awakened DF user pirates etc, Garp must have a basic idea about it. However, nice try, like it ❤️🙂

@@dartagnanjames8069 the fruit of 'the devil who cursed the fruits' makes alot of sense with teach being able to negate other fruit powers.

[@Pete_the_Fuzzball]

I think he already had the moon god fruit before the other two, the fact he doesn't sleep and his body being "strange" pre-date him having either of the fruits we have seen him get during the story so I think the reason he can gain multiple fruits is related to the moon god fruit he already had.

[@supersonic4863]

if the yami gave these powers itd still be the exact same as if a fruit prior did, we havnt seem blackbeard use a fruit other than the yami and gura, so itd be a huge waste if he had one and didnt use any powers except the multi-devil fruit thing, unless thats the only power the first fruit gave, in which case how would he find out about the powers of said first fruit.

[@Pete_the_Fuzzball]

@@supersonic4863 well like Luffy's fruit previously had one property and that is just that his body is rubber, so given than people say his body is weird which could mean many things but presumably he did use this to his advantage with Shanks and he didn't need sleep so that could be most of what it did but the side benefit is being able to have multiple fruits, my point is just that those two properties of blackbeard, his weird body and lack of sleep were present before the fruits we've seen him get so surely that is related to a fruit he previously had.

[@ilostmydoginthepark]

A completely in depth video! I however have something interesting to point out in the fact that, in Chapter 440, Blackbeard himself says to Ace that his powers specifically chose him. Given how Zoans are said to have wills of their own, which is how the Nika fruit evaded the World Government for 800 years, it's possible that the same applied to Blackbeard's fruit, where, by chance of destiny, it happened to chose Blackbeard as it's user.

[@dhruvedd1774]

My theory is that luffy is the embodiment of a stable restorative liberation while blackbeard is the embodiment of a devastating and anarchial liberation. However, in the end both free the people around them from the shackles they had. Blackbeard's method just doesn't work well to allow for the happiness that follows liberation.

[@the_quake]

Blackbeard continually breaks the mold when it comes to the “rules” so I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s not just a two fruit man but a three fruit man. There’s just something uncanny about Blackbeard’s body, many characters bring that up a few times.

[@27noetic]

Blackbeards darkness fruit is more like a Kūshu-Kūshu no mi (Void-Void fruit) because it manifests as a dark swallowing void that negates movement and reality/creation. It stops active devil fruit powers (undo reality) and even eats/negates the damage he receives. This is a perfect opposite for Luffys new awakening that is the embodiment of creative action and mobility.

[@NotTheWEJ]

[@YataVSTheWorld]

I dunno about this Moon God stuff, while it makes thematically sense. I feel the Yami Yami no mi of its own is already the perfect counter for the Nika fruit due its ability to produce darkness that invalidate most alterations done by DF. Like Teach expanding his own Darkness over a field would possibly nullify the ability of Nika to alter that area in the end counteing most of the versatility of the Gear Fifth. It could also be the reason for Teach's will to have the Yami Yami no mi due his ability to turn off "Joy boy".

@@adonisboyd2588 maybe but not due Luffy 's DF that is the point I was exposing before the Yami Yami is already a great counter. Without consider the huge attack power BB has against everyone due the Gura Gura that used with the support of the Darkness can bypass weird resistance as Luffy's. In theory BB built for himself a situation where he could play with the big ones also if he is incapable to use the Advanced Conqueror Haki (or the Conqueror Haki at all) and maybe this is his own endgame. Having fruits allowing him to bypass his (possible) innate deficits against the big ones. The only stuff he really lacks (as far as we know) is a way to proper defense himself, but maybe if he focuses all his haki in defense (as he doesn't need it on the offensive side) he could achieve good results.

[@travisealy3512]

I feel like Imu has the sea god fruit here's why as quoted earlier in the series by people on why people say "if you eat a devil fruit the sea god takes your ability to swim" what if Imu is the sea god had the eternal youth surgery done and the sea god fruit gives you control of the seas and he takes the ability of all devil fruit users to swim.

[@Daniel-ew5qf]

Probably is just sea god instead of a guy who ate the sea god fruit. It's sort of hinted by his name already, cause if you flip "Imu" it becomes "Umi" which means sea in japanese. So yeah, since Luffy is an incarnation of the Sun God, the end of One Piece will probably be the Sun God vs the Sea God

Honestly I think his awakening will be the exact opposite of Luffy’s, Lucy “died” to awaken his fruit someone might be killed by teach to get his awakening, my best guess, probably Marco or Kaido, but I think his awakening powers are the oppposite of Luffy’s, instead of having cartoonish power he will have the power of reality, that’s why he acts like a person would in real life when getting burned or punched into a wall at high speeds and he can turn everything around him into a reality where things that may not have a effect in the anime world will have an effect, that’s why he cancels powers also, this is probably the best theory I can think of and it’s long but if you took the time to read this thanks.

The only reason I would disagree here is: If it is already known as the most dangerous devil fruit, then it would be the worst 'disguise' imaginable. It's like someone stole a bomb, of which he believes it will overkill 3 times, but in reality it would be a 5 times overkill..

[@thomasallen3167]

To this I would argue, what could the world gov disguise it as? Assuming this theory is true, the only way to disguise these god fruits is by portraying the secondary abilities as the sole main abilities. With the nika fruit its easy with rubber, but with whatever blackbeards fruit is, the only option is darkness, a 'special' logia type. While still op and dangerous. I feel the wg would rather the individual who gets it to think that's all it can do, rather than try to push it further. (Though I think blackbeard knows). Whereas if the wg simply squashed all knowledge of it, upon consumption, the user might not consider it as 'just' a special logia and dig deeper. It's a case of misdirection, give people some info so they focus on that so you can hide the real shit.

[@gab4198]

[@danielfrisk925]

Buggy D. Clown is probably the one secretly chosen by the moon god fruit. Similarily to the nika fruit choosing Luffy, Buggy ate it by mistake (Shanks being to blame for this aswell). The fruit is like another version of Luffys fruit with several powers that doesn't seem to only have to do with being able to split apart. Like flying, being immune to attacks that normal fruit powers shouldn't, like Mihawks haki-powered slashes (unless Mihawk is pretending to attack Buggy). Buggy is the first "villain" that Luffy met, and was a part of Roger crew which we all know. Buggys devil fruit is most likely a mythical zoan fruit. Either not awakened or the powers being kept hidden. The most obvious sign is Buggys nose - resembling a red moon. This is just scratching the surface.

Idk but he has a pretty decent devil fruit not gonna lie, I'd rather have his than some of the other mythical ones even if isn't a mythical. Ultimately I think Luffy would end up being the most op because not only is he the mc, but his devil fruit has no limit pretty much, only limit being your imagination which luffy has plenty of so he's gonna grow stronger so by geh time he's garps age he'll probably be the most powerful if he even makes it to that age.

The moon's gravity controls the sea levels, the sea that weakens devil fruit users and their power, as Teach does with his fruit's abilities when he touches them. A lot of things add up.

Something I’ve been putting together so far for Blackbeard is that he is three people, and each one is able to wield a devil fruit. I believe he got the dark-dark fruit as a way to counter other devil fruits, but him acquiring the quake-quake fruit could have been him getting another god fruit, specifically the earth god devil fruit.

[@flakshrapnel8849]

Blackbeard's end goal is to basically be the emperor of the world right? He has consistently chosen the most powerful devil fruits to be in his arsenal, i.e. the strongest logia, and the strongest paramecia, but why wouldn't he go for the strongest zoan fruit? The one luffy has... I say that Teach actually doesn't have his 3 devil fruits nor is there a moon god, but that he is actually going to try to steal Luffy's Sun god fruit, and convert it into darkness, effectively getting rid of the light in the world, which from a pure storytelling stance is pretty good, and then Teach would have the three most powerful devil fruits in One Piece effectively reaching his goal and ruling the world. But the only one stopping him from obtaining that is Luffy, which is why they have their final showdown, Teach will realize he needs Luffy's fruit, as he has knowledge of every fruit in existence, and thus to obtain that fruit, there is that final battle between Luffy and Teach. What are your guys' thoughts?

[@MrAlphaBeck]

With the recent chapters remarks about haki, I can actually see Blackbeard SUCCESSFULLY stealing Luffys fruit (Without killing him, somehow) and Luffy needing to conquer the most powerful, triple-fruited, sun god, darkness, whatever the hell he's capable of Black beard - all with his Haki alone. A true return to the "underdog" feel One Piece has always had. With his willpower alone. Just like Roger.

It doesn't explain how he can "absorb" more than one fruit. I have a feeling that his relationship with the moon is he's FROM the moon. Maybe, one characteristic of someone from the moon is having "multiple" identities/personalities/hearts or whatever it may be.

Well when it comes to Blackbeard it’s actually tricky I mean he’s ability to eat multiple fruits should be a awakening of yami fruit but if that not the case then it makes it even more tricky because if he where to awaken he’s fruits then he probably awakens all of he’s fruits however if he where to be a opposite of Luffy and he’s fruit then the yami no mi aka moon fruit awakening should give him the ability to combine he’s devil powers to creat a unit one after all moon have the ability to absorb light aka power from sun and project it so it safe to say yami awakening should give black beard ability to combine fruit power and we have seen yami no mi absorb powers

They’re opposites but parallel, Blackbeard is also excited about adventure, carefree, and loves being a pirate. He’s opposite with the darkness, the evil, lack of brotherhood/friendship/love, willingness to murder people, and lack of regard for others.

Great video man, but that T-shirt you are wearing is fireee i wonder where its from??

[@jdhd999]

I think Blackbeards fruit is not actually fully awakened yet. I feel maybe one of his abilities is stockpile. But he's only able to use two abilities right now at a time. I think him and his crew have been hunting down high end fruits and feeding them to him. I can see teach being very reckless and just consuming whatever fruits he likes while giving his crew the ones he doesn't see value in. Once his fruit fully awakens he will have the ability to use all of his stockpile fruits at will to their fullest potential (kind of like a deku in my hero academia). Theroy two: He actually has the ability to transfer fruit abilities into anything he wants and stores fruit abilities in his accessories that he can activate at will. So maybe his crew is actually wearing a piece of jewelry or accessory that gives them devil fruit abilities and whenever he wants to go all out he just takes all of his gear back and transforms into a giga devil fruit user.

This makes sense that the Yami Yami no mi is the mythical zoan fruit. It says most zoan fruits have a will of its own. The theory is the Yami Yami no mi was calling to Blackbeard this whole time. It would make sense if the Yami Yami no is the mythical zoan type Moon God. In comparison, Luffy’s fruit having the properties of rubber of the Sun God and in contrast on Blackbeard’s fruit having the properties of darkness as the night/moon God. Another evidence when Ace blast Blackbeard with his fire ability to the point Blackbeard felt it. Makes you think a typical logia user could’ve used his elemental properties to tame that flame without feeling any pain. I’ve notice most Mythical Zoan type users have a logia or a paramecia properties. Kaido Dragon + fire Marco Phoenix + fire Yamato Ookami + snow Sengoku Buddha + light Luffy Sun God Nika + rubber + fire. So it’ll make sense Blackbeard falls into the Mythical zoan conversation. There was an episode where Im was holding the wanted posters of Luffy, Blackbeard and Bonney. Hmmm 🤔

If Zoans have a will of their own, maybe then that's how it's possible for Black Beard to have his fruit absorb White Beard's Parameica fruit. And his body is just hiding something else.

[@gear4thcommentoman80]

A simple solution to Blackbeard's inconsistent evidence of strength could be tied to this- like the many mythical creatures that transform or draw their strength from the moon, BB could be far more powerful at night, perhaps due to what you're theorising. All the on-screen fights where we've seen him getting goofed around were during the day, and the glimpses we've gotten of events like the Payback War appear to have been at night

I forget where I saw the theory but I saw somewhere that the deity of Luffy's devil fruit shares many similarities with the Brazilian sun God and folk hero, Meri. In the story, Meri has a brother who becomes the moon, Ari. Oda already stated that if the straw hats were real nationalities, Luffy would be Brazilian. I think the theory of Blackbeard having a moon devil fruit could play a part of this. Blackbeard and Luffy are extremely similar but also very different in certain ways, almost like brothers. (The pie scene comes to mind) I think this moon and sun theory would also explain Blackbeard's ability to absorb whiteboards fruit. What if a person CAN have 2 devil fruits if they're COMPATIBLE? Tides of the sea are related to the shifting of the moon. So what if Whitebeards devil fruit is just a compatible fruit? We've heard the rumor that if 2 devil fruits are consumed you will explode, but what if that only happens with incompatible fruits? I think at some point Sabo is gonna die as well. I think Luffy will eventually get the Mera Mera no mi or possibly the Magu Magu no mi but I think Mera Mera is more likely. I think it makes sense. Blackbeard = Moon and Tides Luffy = Sun and Flame
