No joke, there is an inherent chance for Oda to massively hype Blackbeard like he did with Shanks.
He left the scene off with Law, and now weve gotten to the point where Garp is destroying Fullalead. If Blackbeard is as strong as we expect him to be, then 2 things should happen:
- The next time he's seen, hes arriving at Fullalead with a defeated Law and his RPs.
- He begins to fight Garp and we potentially even see his 3rd DF or a tease of it (if he has it)
