Blackbeard is a middle-aged man with a massive body, several broken or crooked teeth, long black hair that covers his shoulders, and a black beard (as his name suggests).
Even before he had the ability of a devil fruit, Blackbeard’s power was already very powerful. He was the captain of the 2nd division of the Whitebeard gang before Ace took that position, even his scar.
Now, his power is even more terrible after he possesses the power of two extremely powerful devil fruits.
Not only that, he is one of the few characters in the One Piece series to have D in his name.
However, there is one thing in common that any fan can recognize, which is that all people with the letter D in their names have a `blood-roots` relationship with each other, if not `his children`.
It seems like there is some invisible thread that binds these people together.
However, only Marshall D. Teach is being discriminated against, he is considered a cruel and cunning man different from other people with the letter D.
So does Blackbeard really have no ties to other people?
It’s not natural for me to think like that, there’s a reason.
As we know, many pirates often had children before becoming pirates and left the children in their hometown, then sailed to the sea to fulfill their wishes.
Another questionable detail is at the battle of Marineford when Whitebeard turned to Blackbeard and said: `You are not the person Roger expected`. Why did Whitebeard say that only to Blackbeard?
At that time there were Buggy, Moriah, Crocodile and Luffy.
He said: `Just because you are the legacy, do you think that you are definitely the one who will inherit Roger’s will? Even though the people who carried Roger’s will are no longer there, their spiritual fire
The word heritage here has so many meanings, one of the most common literal meanings is the same blood.
And because both Ace and Teach have Roger’s blood in them, only Ace is the one who carries out Roger’s will, and Teach does not.
Plus if you think Roger and Teach look nothing alike, but when I look at these pictures Teach looks like a fatter version of Roger with missing teeth and curly hair.
Author Oda even implicitly created an extremely close connection between Blackbeard and Ace.
That relationship is both opposing and closely linked like two halves of the yin and yang circle.
