And yet he went to them during the Reverie, coincidently after he saw Luffys bounty. He was chilling on an island right before this, and was at a wedding when Blackbeard was doing stuff.
Again, why would Oda hide the person Shanks is talking about? We know they dislike each other. Also, him talking to the Gorosei regardless is ridiculous, they are just as bad, if not worse than Blackbeard

- Cause Oda likes obscuring the obvious so people make intrigue.
Why talk to the gorosei?
- Cause Shanks likely wants to create an alliance with the world government to take down Blackbeard before he becomes too powerful
Why during the Reverie?
- Cause Shanks knew a hot topic of the reverie was the abolishment of the warlord system, and knowing BBs greedy nature it’s the perfect time to set a trap for him and his crew
All of this goes along with Shanks’ previous characterization and previous goals and concerns.
