Speculations Blackbeard pirate hype up fights

#22
There is a Reason Oda has been giving Blackbeard Pirates DF Powers that are Perfect for Infiltration
Such as Invisibility, Hypnosis, Shapeshifting, Size Manipulation, Flight ... etc

It's because he is preparing them to Infiltrate somewhere
And Doffy gave us a Hint when he said: "Tell Celestial Dragons that they will be yanked from their Golden Thrones"
And Blackbeard being a D. is also for this Reason

Not to mention that Rocks & Blackbeard obviously share so many Similarities & he also attacked Celestial Dragons
Blackbeard will do the same & it has always been part of his Plan
Someone like him obviously didn't Plan for only becoming a Yonko, he also planned for becoming Pirate King & taking over WG

I also don't think he wanted Yami Yami No Mi only for being Powerful or to allow him to eat 2 DFs
Because eating a Powerful DF doesn't mean you will become Yonko & Pirate King, especially Yami Yami No Mi that it's greatest power doesn't work on Non-DF Users such as Shanks. I think he wanted Yami Yami No Mi so he can use Mary Geose National Treasure just like Doffy wanted Ope Ope No Mi for it. Apparently National Treasure of Mary Geose requires you to have Special Body/Powers to be able to use it

People always thought that Bald Gorosei is gonna fight Zoro but i think he truly is gonna fight Shiryu
Laffitte attended Shichibukai Meeting without being detected

Imagine if he flies Devon & Shiryu inside Gorosei Room & others
Blackbeard Pirates will easily get rid of Gorosei & take Celestial Dragons Hostages
I don’t think that the Gorosei are top tiers is my thing. I think they’ll be
Blackbeard killing Shanks or an Admiral would be garbage imo. That would just ruin the hype of a Yonko and a Admiral. Blackbeard Pirates is already hyped as it is.
Blackbeard is but I don’t think the rest of his crew are.

Hmmm
Why was Buggy picked as ancient weapon candidate specifically?
Was there any specific intrinsic reason?
just the captain john/rocks pirates link. john was killed by his crew for not revealing what his secret treasure was and buggy has it now. (or the map leading to it). maybe one of the ancient weapons got put into his care after rocks was beaten idk. i think its possibly one of the ancient weapons because of big mom and kaido's new onigashima project speech where they say they're going to get the ancient weapons, then get one piece, like they already know what they are and how to get them

My favorite uranus theory is that it's Captain John's Treasure and Buggy has one of the ancient weapons now
Yeah, I kinda have the same idea...

I mean, Captain John sure does get mentioned a lot of times so far.. Buggy sought his treasure, Luffy had a map to it in ID, Moriah captured his body, him being part of Rox crew... I mean, there's definitely something more to this guy than him being just some dead guy from 20 years ago.

And him actually having something like an ancient weapon would kinda fit that whole idea... That, or probably some poneglyph.

Atleast one Admiral will fall against BB . And I think it will be Kizaru because of all these blackhole light match up.
BB is carrying will of Xback and is actively hunting 3 ancient weapons. BB vs Marin's is invitable.

About BB vs RH . It's obvious but I have doubt that Oda have balls to kill or show defeat of characters like Shanks , Ben , Yassop after 20 years of hype.
But it depends on which root Oda wants to take.
In my opinion , BB and RH will happen at final war , where all parties will present.

Nah remember akainu was supposed to die in marineford.
You have any source on this?
I think Oda is off screening Kizaru because yonko fall there has to be an admiral who falls
I know Oda is repetitive with his off-screen stuff but come on. Off-screen a top tier (Kizaru) just to hype up another top tier (Blackbeard) would be bad writing. Just like @Jailer said, off-screening one of the most anticipated fight would be underwhelming imo. I would rather have an all out battles between Admirals vs Blackbeard Pirates than off-screening an Admiral.

whatever the hype will be i think its coming after act 3. blackbeard was heading somewhere and racing the marines for it, whatever it is. it might be a big clash and i hope we see it (haha)
@Shisui_038 make a great point about this.
I am starting to believe those who said Oden might actually be Catarina in disguise. I don't really buy the whole fox or Hiyori changing to Oden to encourage the Scabbards bit at all. It's just too cruel. There is nothing stopping Catarina from pulling the same stunt she did with Moira again. Yup, It's definitely that bitch.:akaman:

Well,Laffite already infiltrated Mariejois once!So post skip BB pirates with all kinds of DF powers suited for infiltration should be able to do so easily!Even revolutionaries infiltrated Mariejois,i just hope BB pirates are also competent fighters!Burgess seemed kinda weak!I think BB will either get Pluton at alabasta or try to steal devil fruits from former warlords(or recruit them)!

I think first of all BB doesnot necessarily need a fight to be hyped up if say he ends up awakening both his DFs & Prime Xebec's power which could lay dormant in him. That alone would imply that this is Prime Xebec with 2 awakened DFs implying surpassing even Prime Roger.

But say oda decides to still use fights to hype BB then i think that BB discovering Aokiji is betraying him or something like that followed by BB absolutely dominating Aokiji is pretty big hype.

Despite of fans repeating this BB vs Shanks story i higly doubt BB will kill Shanks. I am sure that Shanks meeting Gorosei will lead to a marraige of convinience where both of them don't want BB to break the balance of power or get that close to PK level. To top that Mihawk potentially allying with Shanks implies that BB won't have it that easy vs both Shanks + Mihawk.


Anyways Oda said that in 2021 Shanks will finally make a move. Can't wait for act 3 to end :)
Post automatically merged:

Damn Yonko fans really want an Admiral to fall lmfao.

Kizaru ain't going down, Blackbeard's hype tool is Shanks. The two have a long history that Oda hits at every opportunity.
BB won't be Yonko level . He will be near PK level pretty soon i think. (Prime Xebec,Prime Roger,Prime WB level or maybe a bit stronger than even that)

Burgess has advanced armament haki and sped surpassing hakuba and anyone else in that arena with the body that could take so much damage and keep going. The only problem was Sabo is a top tier

I don't think any blackbeard pirates are going to be hyped strength-wise aside from Blackbeard himself.

The manga is ending and only Blackbeard from their group is relevant plotwise so i think it is reasonable to predict Oda will treat the blackbeard pirates as he is currently doing the Beast pirates then only have Teach be a force to be reckoned with.

Oda's postskip record is certainly not encouraging when it comes to fulfilling the hype of a group of characters,he instead tries to be faithful to the hype when it comes to individuals.


Conclusion ; Blackbeard pirates aren't going to be hyped through anybody,the hype is going to stay vague and only Teach will be the real deal and will be hyped either through an Admiral or Shanks.
