Character Discussion Who will be Luffy's Whitebeard aka main rival
- Thread starter Albino 👑
- Start date
What did Roger & WB Compete for?
I told you Zoro is Roger's WB
They don't necessarily need to be Opposing Rivals
Does Luffy's WB need to mimic WB in Every Single Detail? Ofc not
We must pick which Attributes or Treats indicates someone is Luffy's WB
Law & Kid are Characters that Oda decided to add during Sabaody Arc so it's not them
Luffy's WB was obviously decided since Story Started.
You gonna say Blackbeard? In that case i will say Roger had Xebec then too
No one ever said that Luffy's WB can't be another Main Character, it's your own Rule
Roger & WB were "Greatest & Most Legendary Duo" of Past Era
Shanks & Mihawk are currently "Greatest & Most Legendary Duo"
Luffy & Zoro will be "Greatest & Most Legendary Duo" when Story Ends
You people just wanna focus on one thing about WB that he doesn't share with Zoro just so you can exclude him when they clearly are Copy Paste in Everything else
Wasn't WB Friends with Roger?
Didn't WB Love Sake? (Which holds Huge Symbolism in One Piece)
Wasn't WB like 2nd MC of Roger's Story?
Didn't WB Inspired Oden alongside Roger?
Didn't WB have a "Strongest" Epithet?
Wasn't WB Non-Interested in competing with Roger?
Wasn't WB known for his Pride & Clean Back Legend?
Wasn't WB known for his Endurance that Shocks everyone?
Wasn't WB too Serious & Realistic compared to Roger?
Didn't WB Clash Equally with Roger once?
Didn't WB Lose his Left Eye in Marineford?
Didn't WB remain Standing Up after taking Hellish Damage?
Didn't both Roger & WB fought Kaidou once?
Wasn't WB a Haoshoku Haki User?
Isn't his Name Inspired from a Famous Pirate?
Isn't his Animal Theme a Sea Creature?
Doesn't he wear a Bandana?
And the List goes longer & longer
Zoro literally Matches everything i just mentioned & more.
Blackbeard or anyone you want to mention don't match any of that
You people ignore everything about WB & only focus on him being a "Captain"
And the funny thing is that you start to name Candidates who actually compete with Luffy for One Piece even though WB didn't care about it (And he could have easily went there)

Kid or Law lmao.
Maybe in One Piece Super, written by some random ass Shuiesha employee years after One Piece finishes to keep the gravy train going.
In actual One Piece written by Oda all Kid and Law are is Luffy’s (weaker) allies.
The imaginary fanfic period of Luffy’s life after One Piece finishes is irrelevant. What matters is the part of Luffy’s life that’s actually shown in One Piece. And to anyone who’s been paying even the slightest attention, that part is a race between Luffy and Blackbeard. Not Luffy’s tsundere friends.

Every Whitebeard version of each Era has a World Strongest title.
Whitebeard World Strongest Man rival of Roger. Rayleigh wasnt the World Strongest.
Mihawk World Strongest Swordman rival of Shanks. Ben Beckman wasnt the world strenght.
Seem like its the first requirement to be equal to Luffy.
Zoro is the next World Strongest Swordman.
When Law and Kidd get a title of WS then WE Can talk.

WB Rivaled Roger in what Goal?
I'm waiting
If you can come up with an Answer, i will admit that Luffy's WB must be a Captain & not anything else
(PS: Mihawk is also not a Pirate Captain, but i guess he isn't Shanks's WB lmao)
Apparently Blackbead is WB of Shanks, WB of Luffy & their Xebec, he is Everyone lol

They didn't share the same goal and you don't need to to be considered rivals
Roger didn't share the same goals with xebec, whitebeard, shiki, or garp. Each of them is still considered as rivals
Mihawk is/was a rival to shanks in the past. Blackbeard is just a bigger one

- Were part of rival crews as kids
- Likely took up their captains fighting style
- Shanks took his strawhat. Teach a similar epithet
- They use to fight with bb even scaring shanks
- Both after the one piece
- Shanks's biggest moment apart from reuniting with luffy will likely be him reuniting with teach
