@cuntflap3009 2 he hasn't been ruined by pop greens, and he won't have or need a devil fruit by the end of the series because he has already awakened his observation Haki on dressrosa, the thing is his goal is to be a brave warrior of the sea, and he is getting closer to his goal. You can't be brave if you're not afraid, and just because he strives to be more brave doesn't mean he'll be any less afraid at the end of the show, just that he can overcome his anxiety for himself or his captain.

[@m1tl4y0tl]

If thats true then other people could pull something similar to this Using the sea stone in a way that completely negates one's devil fruit power for a while and in that amount of time where you technically dont have df powers eat another one

[@Rmuda]

I always thought Blackbeard wanted to capture Luffy as bait for Ace. Ace apparently couldn't shut up about his kid brother while in the crew according to the account of Marco in Marineford, Blackbeard was Ace's subordinate, and he's probably sharp enough to figure out a match between Ace's description of Luffy and the man in question. Holding him hostage would be an easier way of capturing Ace compared to the risk of fighting him, certainly.

[@S3rp3nte]

Personally i always thought that Blackbeard still wanted to capture Luffy after defeating Ace at Banaro Island, since the Marines wouldn't risk a massive war again Whitebeard just to execute one of his commanders and that they would refuse Blackbeard's offer for that reason, only for Ace to reveal to him to be Roger's son to protect Luffy, which could have convinced Teach since in this case the Marines would have consider worth the risk if its means destroy Roger's legacy.

[@abdur1300]

Blackbeard dont hold a grudge against Ace or wanna capture him, he just looking for a man worth more than 100 millions. He capture the guy and the Gov recognize him as Seven Warlord.. As simple as that It was all about Fate, That Ace was happened to be in the way of Blackbeard

[@henny925]

Here's my theory on how Blackbeard got two powers: 1.) He had a fruit next to whitebeard's body under the cloak and it became the new devil fruit and he ate it to absorb it. 2.) His devil fruit, the yami yami no mi, allows him to absorb anything and take it as his own once he is consumed in absolute darkness. 3.) Oda-sensai is going to prove my theory wrong with some plot convenience lol

[@a.michaels5656]

My bet is on the second guess. The specifics of his fruit aren't really known, but in the fight against ace you can see him pulling things into himself. It could also be that when it's dark he gets special abilities, hence why his crew threw a sheet over whitebeard.

[@bruhbruh4635]

But I'll indulge you since you came all this way. *ahem* *breathes in air* I haven't been on a theory forum site since I was 16 years old. Before the time the arc reintroduced blackbeard and showed his plan to absorb the gura gura no mi and yami yami no mi. Years after I read that arc, I was thinking about how he was able to do that. I did thought someone else made this theory up too but never thought someone would try to accuse me of "plagiarism" over a couple theories loyal fans of One Piece already thought of since this series is the highest selling manga of time and there's 7 billion people on this planet alone so.... lmao oml, i can't take this seriously 💀💀💀💀 I'm so dead rn!

[@Stargate-over-starwars]

@@bruhbruh4635 because it's basic af wym anyone who watches the show should come to that conclusion alone

[@raffaelegiacomaniello3415]

I think that the yami yami being the reason why he can consume two df would be more plot convenience that, for example, something in Blackbeard's body that allows him to naturally consume other fruits. Maybe the reason why needed the fruit to start his plan was because it's a great counter against other devil fruits, which Blackbeard seem to consider very important.

The Blackbeard-Pirates get more and more interesting with every new information... - What is the connection between Blackbeard and Xebec? Is he his son? Does he just admire him? - The backgrounds from nearly every member of them, but i personally are extremely interested in Pizarro, Devon, Shot, Wolf and Doc Q. - What do they want to get before the Navy does? A Porneglyph? An ancient Weapon? A new strong Crew-Member? Something entirely different? - What did they achieve by raiding Baltigo-Island? Some valuable informations about the WG? New weapons? - What is Kuzans role in all of this? I mean could he be really an ally of them? I don't think so, but it is a great mistery - What is so special about Blackbeard? He doesn't sleep, he could fight Shanks even without any DF, he seems to have read the Book about DFs (where, when?) etc... Also i really love Blackbeards new desing with the massive Beard. He looks way more like the real world Blackbeard. In my opinion Oda does a phenomonal job with the Blackbeard-Pirates and i can't wait to reach the Arc with them as the primary Antagonists.

Blackbeard Theories: An Explanation for the 3 Skulls and 4 Crossbones Chapter 225 or Episode 147, after Blackbeard's speech, Nami ask "Who is He (Teach)"? Luffy tells Nami, that "It's not him", and Zoro complements "It's them". This is an indication that Marshal D. Teach is more than one person in the same body. Marshall D. Teach is 3 people combined and the 3 Skulls in his Jolly Roger of Black Beard is an indication of that. I think a combination of akumas no mi users, "joined" three people and created Marshall D. Teach. There is already in One Piece some akuma no mi that can "joined" people (Ope Ope no Mi, Gocha Gocha no Mi, Baku Baku no Mi) maybe in the past there was a more experienced user of some of these fruits, or it may have been a new type of fruit that "joined" these people together, and Blackbeard discovered that he could separate with the use of the Yami Yami no mi (denying the power of the Akumas no Mi apply on him), this may have been one of the factors in which he has no alternative but to eat this akuma no mi first. Chapter 577 or Episode 486 In Marinford Marshall D. Teach managed to separate himself temporarily from other people and got the second fruit power, the WhiteBeard Akuma no Mi (that's why he covered Newgate's body, to hide him separating). This would give a margin to explain the would explain his teeth changing all the time. He can combine the 3 sets of teeth (bottom) with the 3 sets of teeth (top) in different ways. Like BlackBeard did in Chapter 577 or Episode 486 with the combining powers of the Gura Gura no Mi, in one hand, and the powers of the Yami Yami no Mi, in the other hand, at the Arch of Marineford. I think this transformation of body parts has a mechanism similar to the Mane Mane no Mi. Marshall D. Teach can only swap body parts with the other two people who are parts of him. In chapter 187 or Episode 115: Bon Clay makes a montage with parts of the face, taking Ussop's Nose and the rest of his own face. Buggy has an akuma no mi that rearranges some parts of his own body, Law rearranges people's bodies on several occasions as well. I think the mechanism for exchanging body parts is the same as for Blackbeard, there are 3 people and they swap parts. That would explain the 3 skulls on Blackbeard's crew flag, but another detail of his Jolly Roger is having 4 crossbones, and that is a Oda’s foreshadowing for Blackbeard's Next Devil Fruit: Hebi Hebi no Mi, Model: Yamata no Orochi. Each tip indicates a head of the Orochi. Chapter 965 or Episode 965, Kurozumi Higurashi, the former user of Mane Mane no Mi, says she left the island of Wano (was chased) and that she came into contact with several people, and end up getting the Devil Fruit Orochi. While demonstrating the powers of her own Devil Fruit she transforms into SHIKI. Either she stole the fruit or Shiki gave the fruit to her, but either way Shiki has information that Hebi Hebi no Mi, Model: Yamata no Orochi is in Wano. Blackbeard will complete his Jolly Roger when he gets the last fruit, and his mentor, who I think is Shiki taught him about using this Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruit. The information Shiki had about level 6 reached Blackbeard and the information about the Orochi fruit (will) as well. I think the idea for Marshal D. Teach background was that his mentor was Shiki, blackbeard's plan (after catching the fruit of darkness) was to be able to heist Impel Down and recruit pirates AT LEVEL 6, BlackBeard only got a Shichibukai position (this position by itself is a great feat) to have "access" to Impel Down level 6, and it was revealed that Shiki was the only fugitive from level 6 in history. BlackBeard went straight to level 6 and that level is secret, no one outside the navy knows about it, and Blackbeard's that he would not have knowledge of. Blackbeard knew of this level because he was trained by the only pirate in history who escaped from there, the Shiki. Because of the movie with Shiki, I don't know if they'll keep this backgroud, but the black beard was certainly trained by someone close to Shiki, and he came to meet him, and receive information from level 6, which has many famous and strong pirates. Blackbeard has two reasons to attack Wano, Devil Fruit and Robin. The government, Big Mom and other pirates have an interest in Nico Robin, because nobody else can read the Ponyglyphs, not even the world government, if it was the case that WG knew how to translate but wanted to keep the secret, they would kill Robin instead of trying to capture her again. Marshal D. will try to "recruit" (Kidnap) Robin. I can't imagine any other way for Blackbeard to get the One Piece. The bets are that Blackbeard will attack Wano, and will take the last Devil Fruit (Zoan type). That's what Blackbeard meant when he said he wasn't going to let the navy have it all, he went to Wano.

Has anyone ever noticed Blackbeard’s rings and how the look similar to many hints about the void century? Also, had anyone ever thought about how Blackbeard’s members represent the different aspects of the human psyche???

[@dariuswhittle238]

M J please explain like right now because this is interesting and I like your idea

[@mj6145]

Darius Whittle okay so basically if you look at his rings three of them look like a sun. As many have theorized in the past like myself, the most likely symbol used by the ancient kingdom and their allies was probably the sun. This idea is even supported throughout the series with certain characters, pirate crews, and islands use a symbol very similar to the sun. Example: kozuki clan, boa Hancock and her crew, jimbei and the “sun pirates”, luffy and zoroa kimonos in want. The next ring is a blue ring with four small jewels surrounding a bigger blue jewel. Looks very similar to the flag flown by the world government. And the last ring is a hold band with red jewels strewn down the middle, doesn’t this make you think of the red line? I know it’s not very detailed but it’s something I noticed a while back just never said anything because I don’t post theory videos or discussions about the chapters. Honestly wish I could start doing that been watching/reading one piece since 2000 and I hate when I see theories online that I have and someone else is beating me to the punch. Now when it comes to his crew just look at the members. San Juan Wolfe: shyness Jesus Burgess: arrogance Van Augar: calmness Avalo Pizarro: selfishness/ corruption Laffitte: sophisticated malevolence Catarina Devon: sadism Vasco shot: viciousness/substance dependency Doc Q: is a sense he’s a masochist Now I kinda threw this explanation together in a few minutes but if you wanted me to explain more I would be glad too.

[@dariuswhittle238]

M J keep going this is a great idea

[@mj6145]

Darius Whittle okay so before I start explaining in a bit more detail I wanted to mention two things I forgot in my earlier response. One, notice how three of the rings Blackbeard wear are sun-like. The trope/theme of three has been very relevant in one piece since it’s conception. Three rings= Three suns= Three ancient weapons. I’m a firm believer that the red line is not man made but natural to the one piece world. And I think the world government has been inhabiting this area since they formed,maybe even before . I believe the three ancient weapons were gathered by the ancient kingdom in order to combat the 20 king alliance. Tbh, I also believe that pluton isn’t entirely inorganic, and just like Poseidon and just as many have theorized with Uranus, I believe that certain criteria has to be met in order to use this ancient weapon. Oda once said that Blackbeard’s interest would be history right? And as of late many have speculated that he fosters some sort of connection with Rox D. Xebec. So would it be too far fetched to think he has some knowledge of the void century? I mean he did travel with Whitebeard for 20+ years, with Whitebeard having the information since Roger told him. So maybe he eavesdropped their conversation or maybe he learned of Rox from whitey-Chan and did some exploring for himself. I mean his flagship is even named the saber of xebec. Going off topic for a second, I just want to state for the record that I do believe Blackbeard will be the one to claim the one piece and be named the pirate king. Now I’m not gonna go into detail how I see this happening but from a storytelling aspect this would make the most sense. Anyway, looking back at the rings if we analyze them a little more we see that there colored very interestingly. He has red, most likely a ruby; a yellow one, most likely topaz; and a green one, most likely jade. Can you think of one crew that fits the theme of three who regularly are noticed for these color traits?? Luffy, Zoro, Sanji. I believe the ancient kingdom also has a monster trio of warriors who where very much like the monster trio of the straw hats. Lol it’s a long shot on that one but worth a try. Now looking at the crew. The only reason I even suggested that was because I wanted to get an understanding of who might fight who if the straw hats ever fought the Blackbeard pirates. I’m gonna have to look into it more so I can explain in more detail. But basically, the members of Blackbeard’s crew represent the facets of the human psyche people usually label as the “bad”, whereas looking at the straw hats they have personalities similar to those of Blackbeard’s crew, but represent the parts of the human psyche that people commonly label as “good”.

[@dariuswhittle238]

M J How would you match up the straw hats pirates versus the blackbeard pirates and this is the best idea I’ve ever seen you deserve A thumbs up 👍

[@sassycat]

YES! This is the 101 that I've been waiting for. Teach is a master strategist who doesn't waste opportunities when they present themselves, even if we aren't yet aware of it.

[@tracyndiyob162]

i'm still convinced kuzan is going to cause part of the blackbeard pirates destruction since i feel even with him doing it to spite/metaphorically flip akainu the bird(and likely being the one who told blackbeard about the unknown marine project.) that even he knows how dangerous they are and will slowly break it apart before betraying them.(possibly to help the strawhats during their fight against blackbeard's crew but its just a theory on my end.) actually to start a discussion which strawhat will you think fight a respective blackbeard member(i know people want to see shiliew fight sanji and zoro due to him having absaloms fruit and i remember seeing a lot of art of catrina devol fighting nami. would be cool to see franky shogun taking on san juan in his giant form.)

My theory on how Black Beard gained the powers of Gura Gura no mi: When Charlotte Linlin ate the orphans and mother, she gained the soul soul fruit powers. Yami Yami no mi was specifically targeted by black beard because he knew something about its powers; it could absorb other fruit powers and use it freely as the user chooses. Or maybe the evil demon of the Yami Yami no mi enslaved the Gura Gura no mi demon so he can use both powers. Or maybe the demons were good friends

[@dwightsmith3815]

Amazing Book, amazing Movie. By the way, the author of the book is Anthony Burgess. So we have two Blackbeard-pirates with some kind of connection to it. If this was also mentioned in the video, then i'm sorry, i might have overheard it.

[@rossjamieson1939]

With Big Mom we've seen it is possible to gain the devil fruit power of a person by eating them. Does anyone else think it's probable that Blackbeard ate part of (possibly the heart of?) Whitebeard.

[@igotktfobyafoot-stomper3979]

Ross Jamieson who did big mom eat to gain their devil fruit power again?

[@rossjamieson1939]

@@igotktfobyafoot-stomper3979 It's implied that Big Mom ate Mother Caramel, the previous eater of the Soul-Soul Fruit, as well as the other orphans she grew up with in one of her eating fits. This was shortly after all the orphans were kicked out of Elbaf due to Big Mom's rampage and just after when they arrived on the island that would become Totto Land.

[@igotktfobyafoot-stomper3979]

Ross Jamieson you might be right about how blackbeard stole whitebeard abilty

[@riri_2109]

No actually that would not work because BB already had the yami yami no mi. If he supposedly ate WB's heart, he'd die having consumed 2 devil fruit powers

[@DarthVengeance0325]

Something has always bothered me about Whitebeard's death, and it's something I haven't really seen addressed. With the caveat that it may have indeed been for time or something on Oda's part, it's as follows: None of the Blackbeard pirates attacked him in their specialized ways. Blackbeard himself didn't use the claws that injured Shanks, nor most of his hand to hand after the initial naginata slash. Burgess didn't use his knives or strongman muscles. Shiryu didn't use the katana he totes around everywhere, Van Auger didn't use his rifle, which would be substantially more damaging than a hand pistol and he's proven he can use mighty quickly. So on and so forth, you get the point. They all used... pistols. Seemingly plain pistols, with ammunition that could be expended; Blackbeard at one point demands another of them to keep shooting, but the rest think Whitebeard's dead and it'd be a waste. In an arc that showed so very many Marines' pointless, but colorful, attacks on the Yonko, and the Admirals' various powers, why did the crew /not/ use their very best if they thought they were in true and legitimate danger from the dying man? Heck, their actual giant Sanjuan Wolf just stood there giggling, and Blackbeard kept getting up and laughing as well between moments of dread on his face. It's not something I expect I can ever prove, but I think Blackbeard may have been hyping up Whitebeard's abilities and downplaying those of his own, as a showman, to make the display grander- knowing the world was watching, he planned out both the execution, and a 'david and goliath' approach to make it seem like a more hazardous victory than it really was.

[@PrinsaVossum]

For holding GLR's subscribe button hostage, Blackbeard's bounty has increased to over 5 billion belly.

[@dmfuerte]

I think Blackbeard has two secret brothers he hide under the cover of his devil fruit. There are multiple clues. I think one reason it seems he never sleeps is because one brother always is awake.

[@DavidbarZeus1]

Here's a question I'd like to hear your theory about. Every Jolly Roger in the series has a connection to the captain, so why does Blackbeard use three skulls on his Jolly Roger?

[@323starlight]

Lets predict who will fight who in Straw hats vs Blackbeard Luffy vs Teach (obviously) Sanji vs Laffitte Ussop vs Van Augur Zoro vs Shiryu Chopper vs Burgess the rest is a bit harder to pin down.

[@_kqcper_332]

What if all of the first members of blackbeard's crew are also sufferimg from some strange diseases like blackbeard? It may be mental or physical but we can clearly see that blackbeard has some bond with them for example Jesus being first commander even though we saw in dressrosa that he isn't really that strong. Teach wanted him to get a devil fruit so he can be stronger and still be the first yonkou commander. Later blackbeard focuses on getting as many strong criminals as possible but i think that his first crew mates mean something more to him.

[@dariuswhittle238]

I know no one will see this but actually the lowest Bounty actually goes to Blackbeard himself. In the entire series because at one point he had a bounty of 0. My guess as to why is probably because the WG thought him no threat while he was on Whitebeards crew. Similarly to how Chopper has an extraordinary bounty of 50.

[@_neon-xeon_3966]

[@HaydenWalker]

Black beard doesn’t look like it, but he is ridiculously smart

[@jeramahia123]

Here's an idea: Next time Luffy and the Straw Hats meet Black Beard, it's like in The Walking Dead where the group meets Negan for the first time. The Straw Hats are utterly crushed, brought before Black Beard, and he forces them to join his crew, then makes his point by killing one of the Straw Hats. Now THAT would be a shocking turn!

[@HaydenWalker]

Luffy wouldn’t join someone else’s crew

[@ahskidden]

i think how blackbeard managed to steal a second devil fruit ability goes something like this, when a devil fruit is consumed it is formed into energy and when the user of the fruit dies that energy needs to leave the body in order to reincarnate elsewhere but if you kill a user during the short window after their death you can catch the energy and consume it
