"Who Can Eat the Most Beef Jerky?"

I actually wouldn't be suprised if they fight its not 2 SHs Vs 1 BB crewmember.

That'd make sense if my "Stronger can fight too" is right. I see Doc Q fighting two SHs at once.
-
Meh as cool as the idea of the BB and SH's being opposites of each other is I don't think it's as factual people think it is.
The problem I have with the theory is that only Blackbeard and maybe Lafitte really have anything that can be compared with a SH personality wise. All of the other members from what I can see don't have anything personality wise.
What does Doc Q really have in common with Chopper aside from being a Docter? Hell what does Burgess have in common with any SH aside from him being a Martial Artist?
-
I wonder if Doctor Q's horse can fight…

Stronger vs. Chopper
-
If Stronger fights Chopper, who fights Q? He doesn't really match up to anyone else besides Robin, but that's just because Robin's with Chopper a lot now, for some reason.

why? I can see him fighting just about any strawhat except Nami (she never fights guys 1on1 for some reason)
-
The BB Pirate I'm intrested in the most combat wise is Doc Q.
At first glance Q is just a sick old guy. But later on Q is seen not only standing up straight but he's ROWING on the raft. This is even more impressive seeing as how he can keep up with Burgess.
He's also pretty durable judging by the Ace vs BB fight. And he does have something on his back.
-
Dr.Q surely made some kind of doping to allow him to gain temporary strength. After all, that would really fit his "Doctor of Fate" theme, besides, as ridiculous as it sounds, I think Q's like some kind of Super Virus Human, thus explaining why he's weak most of the time.
And stronger must be pretty powerful. I bet Nami will take on Stronger. And why you may ask? Quite simple. Nami needs to get kicked hard on the face.
-
Recently I'm of the opinon Lafitte is quite possibly the BB Pirates's speedster type character. Him disappearing when Ace did his Hiken attack, him keeping up with the other BB members without really trying, and Auger expecting him to be already back from his trip to Marijois imo implys Lafitte is quite fast.
All the more reason for him to fight Brooke who I think is also a speedster.

…This has been stated, simplified and brought up all the time, people nearly take that for granted ><
-
What I always think about is who`s faster - Auger or Lafitte, since you know, Auger having nickname Supersonic~ Hmmm.
-
Think that aplies to his marksmanship skills Al!naJames.
-
He also dodget Ace`s hiken >_> So he runs pretty fast too.
-
^Not as fast as disappearing.
-
I wonder if Laffite can run over water like Brooke. That would be such a sight.
-
How do we know that Laffayette doesn't posses a Devils Fruit?
Huh!?
-
@Lobster:

What's your point, Lobster? If you haven't noticed, Brooke also has a devil fruit.
-
Because being cool without DF is much more cooler? >_>
CP9 guys did the same thing with dissapearing, didn`t they? And it had nothing to do with the devil fruit. -
As possible as Lafitte having a DF is I'd rather he doesn't or at least him having one that didn't affect his speed.
He'd kinda be like Zoro with the whole "no DF" thing.
-
@Al!naJames:

-
*sights - Then what kind of devil fruit it can be? =__=
-
@Al!naJames:

The Sam Fisher Sam Fisher Fruit…
or perhaps the Snake? Snake? SSSNNNAAAKKKEEE!!! Fruit?
-
Laffite would be more interesting without a DF, IMO. I'd rather he just be a martial artist or something than some guy who just has massive attacks. He seems more style-based than just wiping out opponents, and with his speed and stealth, it would add to that "style" air he gives off.
-
Whoa, this thread is old, but isn't this the "official" Blackbeard thread?
Anyway, I'm sure that many already know, DFs can grant people multiple related abilities. I was wondering to what extent can Blackbeard use his powers? Since he is gravity itself, could it be possible he can warp space and time? With his gravitational powers can he attract multiple large objects in space and bring them crashing down to Earth? Can he use gravity to fuse elements together and create a fusion reactor? With gravity, he should also be able to manipulate the tides, right? My guess is that his powers include anything that has to do with pulling and suction but not pushing.
But, wait! He is also darkness, meaning he can blind and deafen his foes and cause them to go into panic and confusion. His fruit is also associated with evil, betrayal, and cruelty, maybe that will have some part to play.
-
Since this is the Blackbeard thread, I'll bring back a quote that I originally put in the "Theories That Don't Deserve Their Own Thread" thread.
Here's a theory of mine:
Blackbeard gave Shanks his scars while Shanks was still in Gol D. Roger's crew. Ace said Blackbeard was twice as old as he (Ace is 20, so Blackbeard is about 40), so he could have very well been in Whitebeard's crew for all that time. Also, take a look at the middle picture on this page.
http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/434/10/
Shanks's eye is covered by his hair. Also, the scars are on hs Jolly Roger. Wouldn't the making of his Jolly Roger come not long after he got his first real pirate ship?So what do you guys think?
Edit: I missed something. Apparently, BB confirmed that he was on WB's crew for decades.
http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/440/17/ -
who knows, it could be could not. We will never know until it is said when they did clash. But nice catch. It would make sense. Considering I doubt pirates want to change their flags ever, or often.
If I recall that was his jolly roger even when he still had the hat right? I mean with Luffy at his town, cause he always had the hat till Luffy did.

I swear i cannot stand Blackbeard,for one he killed his own crewmate to get a DF bad idea but most of all because he is a Hypocirte he tells luffy all of this stuff about dreams and everything then joins the Shichibukai come on this guy sucks

He didn't give up his dream though. He still aims to be the Pirate King. He's just using the WG's protection to do it "behind the scenes". He's doing the same thing with the WG as he did WB: Pretend to be on their/his side and when the moment is right, betray them/him.
-
hmm mabye but he still killed sombody for power
-
yea but either way I find him dispicable. A true pirate king would not need to hide under WB's ranks or the Governments. They should just be going around doing whatever they want to do and not caring about the world or anything. And I don't want to hear he was just with WB because he wanted a fruit.
A true Pirate King would not need to rely on getting a fruit to become it, or pluton, or Army of zombies or _________(whatever you want to put in there). They shoudl be able to do it with their own power and their freinds/crewmates, not relying on some said fruit. How blackbeard said to ace most logias, and probably devil fruits in general rely too much on their power. That is kind of a hyprocrite statement considering he was with Whitebeard only to increase chances of finding the devil fruit he wanted.
Sure Luffy has a Devil fruit, but he didn't go out of his way to get it, or what not. He woudl still do the exact same as he has been doing without it.
-
So true theres nothing left to say
-

No, he needs it to cancel out the cowardly opponents' (logia) fruits making the fights about physical strength again. In a world without devil fruits Blackbread would already be king.
-
I agree that that shouldn't be the way someone becomes a Pirate King. A main difference in Luffy's and Blackbbeard's ideals. I agree that it will be between Luffy and BB as to who becomes Pirate King. You got Luffy: Fights directly against the WG, is born of the "current pirate generation", and protects his nakama with hs life. Then you got BB: Will hide in the shadows of strong men until he gets what he wants, is of the "previous pirate generation", and will kill nakama if they have something that he wants. They even argue on what tastes good and what tastes bad. They are both "D"s and have small crews. Oda's really setting them up to be mirror opposites: Which ideal will win?

Actually, i'd never thought of that.
-We have'nt seen much of Dragon yet
-Government declaring War
-Maybe some action at Shaobondy(sp?)It would be a good time to make his move.

Uh Shanks, Whitebeard, Garp, Rayleigh. I think they would beat Blackbeard without his fruit. And if not (cause he did scar, whoopidy he scared someone, Shanks) His fruit will basically have no real effect on Luffy. I mean whenever Luffy is touching BB will be when he hitting him, and thus don't really effect it.
We saw Zoro survived Luffy's gear 2 damage so Luffy will to. the only difference is Luffy will take the full blunt of physical attacks vs the reduced damage of being rubber before. But Luffy will win so either way Luffy would be King without Fruits, and will be with.

could imagine this as a final scene in the battle between luffy and BB…
around them just darkness and everywhere explosions around them ...would be a thrilling last backround...or just a bad fan fic hahaha

Which is a pretty big deal. It will be the first time in over a decade Luffy will be hit without the cushion from his body and the first time ever he'll be seriously hit by a super human without his usual resistance.
Then think about the lack of damage he'll be doing to BB. If he can take blasts of fire capable of tearing through ships&buildings, knock down mountains, and flamming spears in his chest then some non-gear 2 punches and kicks aren't doing much.
If he grabs luffy while in Gear 2 thats a lot of internal injuries due to strain on his now non-rubber organs. Gear 3 will hurt but also be a double-edged sword as he's not a much easier target for BB to touch.
BB's fruit is very effective against Luffy with knowledge of just its basic abilities. I'm expecting a big ass whoopin for Luffy their first encounter, we all should.

but luffy is kind of superhuman in his own way, wouldn't u say?

I can say the same thing about Blueno and Lucc, Arlong and Garp. Theres still a difference.
Luffy without his fruit physical strength is at best Franky's&Sanji's level. Think a man who scarred Shanks and 3 shotted Ace might be a signficantly stronger than those two.

I have a question concerning black beard
This is more or less a question of how can Luffy fight black beard. what I mean is if black beard can nullify DF powers then wouldn't every time luffy stretches to hit him, (like say a gomu gomu pistol) once it hit him it would cause luffy's arm severe damage seeing as how it's stretched out and us normal people can't do that. So I want to know how do you think he'll deal with it, would he suck it up, or find some way around it? please comment
-
Easy. Chopper will be the one to deal with Blackbeard…
Or the arm retracts to it's normal state before all the rubber properties are lost. (meaning no damage to luffy)
Or BB can only disable powers with the palm of his hands (similar to how Crocodile could only absorb water with his hand and not his whole body.)
Or BB can't fully remove Luffys rubber power. Instead his power works like water did in Arlong park, just robbing Luffy of any control he has.

yeah very good point…. maybe Rayleigh will teach him something although it's doubtful

I don't think just touching BB negates a DF user's powers He actually has to hit or grab you. If he grabbed Luffy's wrists then Luffy would be in serious trouble.
Best case scenario his arm just retracts to normal and hes right in BB's face. Worst case it doesn't retract and he tears all the muscles and ligaments in his arm or the whole arm just comes off. Don't want to think what that would do to his bones.
To beat BB I think Luffy would have to go berserk in Gear 2(probaly combined with gear 3 for extra damage) in a nonstop onslaught so he doesn't give BB the chance to grab or suck him in. Maybe use the enviroment to avoid mini blackholes if BB can create them. Though if BB can manipulate gravity and make it harder for Luffy to move in trouble again.
More I think about it, unless Oda makes the abilities of the Darkness fruit really shallow the possibilites for it make it sound broken.

Ryuksgelus: you're over-thinking it. Unfortunately, Oda sucks at being calculating, and really just tries to go with the flow. Likely, if Blackbeard touch Luffy, Luffy will just retract back to his normal body. This is just because, otherwise, it'll be a pain for Oda to work with details such as tearing muscle tissue.
