Btw, Don't think I ever asked you, but what do you think about Blackbeard in one of the most recent chapters?
One chapter won't change my opinion on any character.
Though many find recent BB showing a bit bad but I don't think so.
BB always got portrayed like that - opportunistic and only taking risk when he needed to. Recent chapter was no different.
One can argue he didn't hesitate in going to MF and wreck havoc after getting gura but this time he didn't have his whole crew + whosoever he had turned into stone and was left with 3 opponents - Rayleigh + Simp Coby+ Hancock (she could turn him into stone as well)
So I don't see any issue if he got himself a deal and back out.
He is a smart one not hot headed after all
