Questions & Mysteries Blackbeard's physiology and his DF powers

#1
As you all know recently we've learned that BB doesn't sleep.


Shanks: ''I bet his life has been twice as fun!!''



''twice as long as I have''

Marco also mentioned this before;


''The very structure of his body... is strange!! Is that how he pulled this off!!?''

If Blackbeard's body is strange, and if he can live the twice the life of a regular human being, then is it weird that he can use two devil fruits? I guess not. Then the third can happen as well.

Now that I've noticed another different thing;

Blackbeard's height according to SBS Vol 58; 3.44 cm. This looks like a regular tall person as we've seen many times in One Piece. But when you divide that number in two; it's 1.72 cm. Is 1.72 means something? Like average person in One Piece? Or another regular person's height? Look what what I have noticed;

Monkey D. Luffy's height (before TS); 1.72 cm

This can't be a coincidence right?

It's also Teach's age, he was 38 years old before the time skip, when you divide number in two;

Monkey D. Luffy's age (after TS); 19 years old

So in the end, Blackbeard is approximately twice taller and twice older than the main character. And he has twice the DF powers. It's an interesting detail.

I would rather want to see him being 3 times taller than the main character, since it's possible he might steal the 3rd DF power in the future.

Still going with the 3 theory.

He not only has the Jolly Roger with 3 skulls but also brings 3 pistols with him (and post time skip he was shown with a beard divided in 3 points).

He got the strongest logia, the strongest paramecia so it would be weird to ignore the zoan category at this point.

He was still shown "not ready" even after acquiring 2 df aka he avoided fighting with Shanks at Marineford and Akainu later and that imo means he has still plans to bring to fruition to become, personally, even stronger. The one with Akainu was a gold occasion to put him down but he escaped so imo that means he has still to reach his true potential aka the 3rd df.

I think it was you that mentioned that Oda at first planned for BB to be able to beat the 3 admirals alone, again 3 and again that could happen to hype him end of series and it is just beautiful to see a 3 df man beat 3 of the most iconic df users (even if I doubt it will be the original trio).

Lol, that phrase is much older than whichever band, Seth.

On one hand if he turns out to be some bi guy, then Oda is being really clever. The phrase Ace says is apparently a bit odd in Japanese but comes out to line up with Ace merely being about half his age. Young Shanks obviously wouldn't have known about any freaky stuff, so that phrase would just go to the guy merely having more time available. But then they can totally be clues we end up leaning on for years.

The three skulls of the flag seem like the biggest clue to something and you can imagine BB being even stronger at the end of all this. But for right now what you point out and the increasing connection to Xebec look like they lead to the biggest reveal.

It could be related to the D. clan and Oars clan relationship, since Teach likes to read about the history.





3 skulls on his neck



3 skulls on his belly


Ace had good relationship with Oars Jr.

Luffy's shadow was very compatible with Oars's body.


There is also this, similar cross like symbols with the one that Oars wears;

My headcanon is that the soul of the devil inside the devil fruit goes to live inside the heart of the one who eats the fruit. So Blackbeard actually has two hearts and therefore can host two devils inside him.
Blackbeard is a Time Lord confirmed.

Cool idea though seriously, I like the idea of the soul of the devil in the fruit living in the heart of the user.
