Hello everyone,
Today I want to do a bit of Devil’s Advocate for Blackbeard. Many people have for some reason seen this most recent chapter as confirmation that Imu is the final villain, but I actually got the opposite impression when I first saw Imu’s Devil Fruit, as this Fruit appears to be a Mythical Zoan. Why would that make me confident that Imu isn’t the final villain?
Well, because we still don’t know what Blackbeard’s third Devil Fruit is going to be. For the .01% of you who haven’t heard this theory, the idea is that Blackbeard will have not just two Devil Fruits by the end of the series, but three. There is some symbolism around the number 3 with Blackbeard. His Jolly Roger is 3 skulls, not 2:
His original claw weapon was 3 blades:
Given the fact that Blackbeard has already eaten two of the strongest Devil Fruits among their types, it just seems like destiny that Oda would want to draw Blackbeard eating the 3rd strongest Devil Fruit type as well. You would have one character wielding the strongest Logia, Paramecia, and Zoan fruits all by himself. And Teach already has the strongest Paramecia and Logia, it seems like Oda not giving him the strongest Zoan as well would be the biggest blue-balling in manga history.
So with the reveal that Imu is a mythical Zoan, and his fruit is potentially the strongest Zoan fruit in the world, does that mean Blackbeard is going to eat Imu’s fruit at EOS to give himself the three strongest Devil Fruits?
If Blackbeard is going to take Imu’s Fruit, then that would obviously mean Imu would have to be defeated before Blackbeard, so that Blackbeard can take his fruit.
I always thought Teach never worked as the final villain, as the final villain of OP should be someone who ideologically embodies all of the evil in the OP world, and Teach is not a representation of evil in the OP world so much as he is a dark Luffy Parrallel, but damn. There is a strong possibility that Teach could be a Post-Imu Luffy fight.
