Questions & Mysteries Why is Burgess still Captain of the First Ship ?
- Thread starter Chrono
- Start date
Another chrono thread proven wrong yet again even tho Oda already confirmed before that division number =/= strength, now we have the cover spread of the rught hand men/2nd strongest of the major crews and of course Shiryu is in it
No Burgess, Laffitte or 10th recruit
No Burgess, Laffitte or 10th recruit
We already know strength wise:
Rayleigh=Roger
Beckman~Shanks
Killer~Kid
Marco<Whitebeard
Katakuri<Big Mom
King~<Kaido
Sabo is second in command but we don't even know if he's stronger than healthy Kuma.
Shiryu>Blackbeard
Zoro>Luffy
Bepo<Law
If Shiryu was able to surpass all the original members of the BBPs, and got second ship ? Why cant he surpass Burgess ? Why is BB adamant on keeping Burgess as the captain of the first ship….and his RHM ?
” Buh…Buh…its not position of power”, “Its Loyalty”….then why isnt Shiryu like 5th ship Captain ? How tf did Shiryu get to 2nd ship Captain when we know damn well BB’s original followers are more loyal ?
Blackbeard entrusted Ace’s fruit to Burgess…thats a big deal. He wants Ace to be reborn into Burgess. Burgess is also the BBP whos the most like BB. Like they both always get Ls, until they get rewarded with the Ult W. Blackbeard captured Ace, and Burgess helped found Revo HQ and had the BBPs destroy it.
- Burgess also was handling Base Sabo, making Sabo run away to the Mera Fruit and eat it. Base Sabo is Dragon’s YC1
- Burgess made Koala piss her pants, and had a similar threat lvl to Doffy in Sabo’s eyes.
- All of Base Sabo’s attacks are useless on him, and he cant crush Burgess’s head like he did Vice Admiral Bastille
- Only attacks that do shit to Burgess is the flame fruit attacks
Burgess did this all DFless, once he gets a DF he‘ll be dangerous.

Burgess is trash. He got obliterated by Sabo who is most likely at least around YC1. If this is how he performs against the YC1, he stands no chance of surpassing Shiryu.
The only YC he may stand a chance against is Lack, the Drought of named attacks, and even then I'm not too sure if he could surpass Lack.

I reread post timeskip over Christmas holiday. And I still think burgess is Blackbeards most trusted ally and one of his strongest. But rereading dressrosa made my wonder if he was in a leadership position, why didn’t burgess sirectly report to BB after getting to Baltigo after showing us Burgess had a snail for Blackbeard himself. Why did he go to shiryu and Lafitte? It was a weird thing that made me doubt burgess being a leader in a crew. But he does still seem the closest to Blackbeard afterall
