i maybe looking into this but when Ace was on Buggy's ship or in his hide out i forget which they began to talk about white beard and Ace said "so you know our old man" i maybe looking into that but i think whitebeard is Ace and luffy's father probably not though

WhiteBeard (Edward Newgate) doesn't have a D. in his name
-
It could be… He might even be the "grandfather" that Luffy froze up at the mention of.
If we assume the translation is direct and correct -- Edward Newgate -- then it could be Edwar D. Newgate. But, I somehow doubt it'd be so simple.
-
Edward is Edward not Edwar D. I checked
The name Edward Newgate I think is the correct translation

[snapback]70830[/snapback]**Edward Newgate is the correct translation as we've learned so far, but Roger was also introduced to us as Gold Roger. It wasn't until we learn from Kureha that it is really Gol D. Roger, so there's no reason why it can't be Edwar D. Newgate. Also, wasn't Whitebeard the only man to ever tie Roger in a fight. It wouldn't be surprising then if they were brothers or something.
-
I doubt Oda would pull something as corny as "Edwar D. Newgate". Anyway, Ace refers to Whitebeard as "the old man". Not "our old man".

[snapback]70953[/snapback]That would be a bit odd though, seeing as how he's named after Edward Teach.

Back at Alabasta Ace tells Luffy that he´s a member of the Whitebeard pirates, that Whitebeard is a great guy (which appears like Luffy never heard of that character) and that he´s going to make him the new Pirate King. And all that Luffy has to say is that he´s going to kick Whitebeards ass then too.
Now Aokiji just says the term Grandfather and Luffy completely freaks out. Do I really need to elaborate why Whitebeard can´t be Luffy´s Grandfather?
-
yea i agree no way that he is luffys grand father
-
Luffy's grandfather probably is some guy not known yet
A pirate or maybe a corrupt Marine officer (that could be a reason for Luffy to freak out)
-
What about Gol D. Roger being his grandfather? There is no way he could be Luffy's father because he died before Luffy would have even been concieved, so.
-
you know what im staring to think that everyone that has a d in the middle of their name is related to luffy
-
Yeah, this 'D' must mean something, I think so…or not
-
Today was the first day I saw Whitebeard and MAN did he need his medication.

[snapback]73692[/snapback]Yes, but he is still the man closest to One Piece, according to Buggy. White Beard, although perhaps not blood related to Luffy, still has a connection somehow. After all, who says it can't be Edwar D. Newgate?

[snapback]73965[/snapback]Apparently Oda is saying that or else he would have called him that way in the first place.

I think the Pirate King is different from the rest. And as far as this the Edward Newgate thing is concerned. The D. itself if already a mystery. There´s no need for double mystery by keeping it a secret when telling us a character´s name.
Besides having Edward D. Newgate, Portgas D. Ace and Marshall D. Teach all in the same crew somehow just appears, I don´t know…silly!

[snapback]74097[/snapback]**True that, true that, but they don't have to be in the same crew; just perhaps connected, maybe not by blood, but by some other means (like maybe the "D" signifies the upcoming important characters- who knows? maybe the mini-plot where Ace's plan to catch Blackbeard could coincide with the Straw Hats after W7).
-
Well that entire Blackbeard/Ace/Strawhat thing is to much for me to predict anything. The entire One Piece treasure isn´t that clouded to me as this thing. :wacko:
-
one i don't think that this is relevent but HE"S FREAKIN HUGE!!!
