Questions & Mysteries Theory: Blackbeard will form the new Rox from the Shichibukai to become Xebec 2.0.

Outside of Moria none of the Warlords will ever accept to work for Blackbeard, their egos are too big and they must hate his guts, and Moria must hate him even more and work with him only to betray him and avenge Absalom once BB is vulnerable.

Yeah thats what Rox was. They all hated each other and it was hard to keep them together.

There’s zero reason for Mihawk to ever join Blackbeard, and thus the whole idea falls apart. BB can’t give him what him wants, which is for his chosen rival (Zoro) to challenge him in an epic duel for his title. Mihawk has worked alone since Roger’s execution, there’s no in-story reason for him to want to change that, and if he kidnaps Perona while she’s looking for Moria, this is more likely to make an enemy out of Hawk-Eyes than anything else.

Given Hancock’s hatred of all men and Luffy’s status as the fifth emperor, there’s no reason for her to team up with BB over Luffy. To do so would be completely out of character for her.
Mihawk would join BB for the exact same reason he joined WG.

Yeah Moria and Weevil joining despite any grudge they have against Blackbeard fits what we know about the Rox pirates
The theory is literally that Rox was a dysfunctional group of pirates sabotaging one another for their own self interests.

Some here are like "They would never work together". Thats the whole point! Its just an alliance against the WG.

My problem with this is Mihawk doesn’t seem like a guy who would join under anyone(maybe Shanks) and Hancock loves Luffy and would never do that to him
 

Garp the Fist

Bwahahahaha

It’s the only way I can actually see Zoro vs Mihawk happening in a way that isn’t just a friendly duel, so based on that I like it.

But I think it’s the level 6 prisoners who are meant to be his Rocks people. Famous, psychotic pirates, wouldn’t be in a crew if not for him, Blackbeard literally made them fight to join his crew.
