Speculations Edward Weevil might return as a holy knight

[Monkey D Theories]

I find it odd Oda would create a character like Weevil, shichibukai and clone of WB, if the character was pointless. I think Weevil could very well play a role in the story to come.

Last we saw, Weevil was captured by GB. We know a couple things about Weevil:

1. He’s very strong
2. He’s very stupid
3. He cares about Sphinx Island

All of these would make Weevil the perfect slave for Imu. All Imu would need to do is tell Weevil that becoming a holy knight is the only way he can protect Sphinx Island and its people. Maybe even promise Weevil revenge against Blackbeard.

Saturn’s death already created an opening amongst Imu’s chosen. More openings could come this arc with some HKs falling.

I think Weevil might be a good choice to fill one of these gaps. Perhaps he could be an EoS fight for Jinbe or Marco.

This is actually not a bad theory. Weevil is one of the only warlords who did nothing to violate his agreement like Doffy, Croco etc. He brutally hunted down the Whitebeard pirates until the warlord system was abolished, which the upper brass of the WG only reluctantly agreed to because of Doflamingos actions in Dressrosa.

I would say he wouldn´t really be able to achieve anything more than a shallows covenant though, Harald spent years to achieve even that.

Why not, after all they introduced a Yeti as a Holy Knight in the God Valley flashback only to never see him again afterwards
