So freaking close!
All of you who are voting Mr.3 will repent when you see Whitebeard plowing thorugh marines in all his glory. His sacrifice will change everything. With his death power in the world shall shift and history will be shaken. A mediocre DF user who also happens to be a coward cannot possibly take my vote. Where was his "superior intellect" when he was running scared like a bitch through impel down? I can't believe it's this close.
Edit: sometimes underdogs are underdogs for a reason, not just to get pity votes and see if they can tie.
Then when the war is over, Mr 3 will be part of one of the 3 great pirate crews to invade the new world (Luffy, Buggy, Blackbeard). Whitebeard will be dead.
