So I guess Whitebeard isn't a Logia type maybe?
They already mentioned he has the paramecia Earthquake fruitOriginally Posted by animus
Source? I was pretty sure the chapters just mentioned he was a Quake Man, eating the Quake fruit.
... and the difference is? He can create shock waves that produce earthquakes ( or tsunamis seeing as he's usually in the sea )
Seeing as it isn't either an element or an animal the only logical outcome is a paramecia

I don't remember where I read it either... but I was pretty certain he was a paramecia type as well.
Probably from the fact that Jose and Marco bothered to protect Whitebeard from attacks that any logia could've withstood.

well you have to remember that the WG MUST score a crushing victory over the whitebeard pirates here... if even 1 admiral or major force of the navy is defeated it could spell disaster for them in the future, since each yonkou is likley as strong (yet smaller in numbers) as whitebeard, even though hes acknowledged as the strongest at the moment.
Losing 1 admiral, 1/3rd of there top end power (assuming the pacifista are not equal to them) would be a massive blow.... i think we really need to see whitebeard in action to get a real clue just how different in power the yonkou are compared to the people we have already seen
WB dying is starting to seem like the most likely to me (not just cause he was stabbed through the stomach). It almost seems like the pirate age right now is stagnant with the four yonkou on one side, and the WG on the other, and both forces too cautious to move.
If WB goes down suddenly all of the pirates allied to WB are again going after one piece for themselves rather than supporting WB and being too intimidated and loyal to cross him. All the islands (i.e. fishman island) no longer have protection. The three remaining yonkou would suddenly be on the move again. It could almost be a rebirth of sorts for the pirate age.
Also the WG gaining control over the world could also help this cause. Rather than being able to sit stagnant with power (the yonkou, alot of the new world pirates) they will not just have an opportunity to move again, but be forced to do so.
The same argument can be made if the WG goes down, but obviously it's doubtful all their forces will be annihilated. I don't know. I originally thought Garp or Ace would die, but now I think WB is going to go down kamikaze style (and die with a smile on his face) while putting a decently sized dent in the WG, but as I said, it will throw the pirate world into a new age - one with pirates as clear-cut underdogs and will have to fight rather than sitting around. A righteous war of sorts.

it would be nice to see WB die and ace become captain of the WB pirates, just like they said a few chapters ago. Ace would make a superb opponent for luffy to race for OP...
Ace isn't fit to lead and it would be pretty stupid if they just made him the leader. He was right when he said that it was his own cockiness and arrogance that got him where he is.
Yeah, but Luffy is?Originally Posted by FireEmblem
Luffy leads how many pirates under his flag? Whitebeard leads how many under his?Originally Posted by Archangel
There is absolutely no way you could compare the type of leadership required to lead the Whitebeard Pirates vs. what Luffy does as captain of the Strawhats. Also, Ace is outranked by Marco in the WB Pirates. It's obvious that that's with good reason too from what we've seen of him in this war.

It seemed pretty unanimous that everyone in the WB crew wants Ace to become the pirate king...
10/4/04 - 8/20/07
And I think Ace led a whole contingent of ships; he was a "division captain" if I am not mistaken. with assistance, I am sure he could lead a larger contingent.
They definitely all want him to be, but do you think he's ready for that? That if Whitebeard died this instant, they'd make him the leader?Originally Posted by Assertn
Even if that is likely to happen, it wouldn't make as much sense as making someone that is actually more fit to lead the leader.
