Law will defeat blackbeard and blackbeard will be forced to retreat. People have jumped the gun and are assuming blackbeard needs to win here for narrative purposes. “Blackbeard is final villain therefore he can't lose”. So people think that law is going to be sacrificed to hype up blackbeard. And people also think blackbeard is stronger than law which is just baseless headcanon
“Why would luffys final villain lose to law”. This reminds me of when everyone thought law would lose to big mom and that big mom would go to Elbaf. The fact is that Law is way more important than people want to admit, in fact law and kid are more important than blackbeard and will still be relevant after blackbeard is defeated by luffy later on.
Law is too important to be defeated here. The whole point of Wano was to hype up luffy, kid and law as the powerhouses of the new era that will shape the future, a new way forward. They are the ones that will run the new world. Beating kaido and big mom was to mark the BEGINNING for them to start running the new world. They are just getting started. That's why law losing here would make absolutely no sense. The message of wano was to not underestimate the new era
And blackbeard is doing exactly that. He thinks he is being smart by waiting for kaido and big mom to be defeated and fighting one of the supernova instead. Because he thinks this is “easier”. Greenbull was also like that, he said he would never try to mess with kaido, but is not afraid to target luffy, the person that defeated him. Blackbeard beating law would prove him right about him underestimating the new era which goes against what oda was trying to convey in Wano.
Blackbeard being a future antagonist doesn't mean Oda won't give him Ls. He already made Blackbeard lose to Magellan, and Blackbeard was overpowered by old whitebeard as well. It doesnt matter because blackbeard wasnt at his prime, and he still isnt. If he was prime, he wouldn’t have run from old rayleigh. Prime blackbeard will not be afraid of anything.
Blackbeard losing to law will set him up as an underdog/darkhorse in the competition for the pirate king throne. Blackbeard will make a comeback to fight luffy later on in the series after getting another powerup.
And no, blackbeard is not stronger than law. Blackbeard gets overrated by fans simply due to future narrative headcanons. Blackbeard has no feats even remotely as good as killing big mom, 2v1 or not. He is using named gura gura attacks and is still getting overpowered by law. He is starting to use his darkness fruit but law will figure it out quickly and counter. Blackbeard needs another powerup to contend with the supernova trio
