OOOOKKKKK so Blackbeard leveled up
but i don't think he can keep absorbing abilities, otherwise they start to conflict with each other.

I don't think he's just going around absorbing powers. I think he simply has the 2 and it'll stay that way. Apparently there's an anormality in his body that would allow him to do this, maybe kinda like those very rare cases in which a person might exhibit 2 different DNAs... chimeras.Originally Posted by Death13a

Wow... BlackBeard completely lost it...
Im wondering what Marco meant about Teach's body composition. I don't think this was an ability of the Darkness fruit, but rather one of his own.
Akainu needs to die. Every panel he appears I hate him more.

I think the darkness fruit allows him to extract another devil fruit power, but only his physical body is able to handle the effects of possessing two fruits.
In other words, without the darkness fruit, Teach would have to obtain a second power by finding another uneaten fruit.

I think Im reopening an old pandora box with this but oh well...
I wonder how Devil Fruits work. Supposedly only 1 of each exists at a time... so... when a user dies... what triggers a new fruit to be born? Or does a part of the previous owner transform into a fruit?
This would explain what Teach was doing... extracting the 'new fruit' from the body. But then one should appear from Ace too...
didn't they say that having more than one devil fruit will make you explode?
I can understand the power stealing, but it requires some explanation about dual fruiting.
anyway.
loved that marine, who's soiling himself because he's so afraid of earthquakes.
also, WB was 72? I thought he was 50 something, that makes him even more amazing. we really need some more flashbacks about him, maybe after all this is over, maybe we'll start hearing about islands in NW that WB visited, maybe the merman island will give some more info on the subject...
back to Blackbeard.
here's my take on the issue.
Devil fruits only grow inside a dead man's body. which explains how there's only one person of each power, and yet the fruits can be identified from sight.
Black beard has a twin inside him, (like the guy in basilik), which BB feeds the evil fruit to, and when he wants to switch backup powers, he sucks the fruit out of his brother, and then feeds him another fruit.
I'm positive that the secret to the power swap isn't just the blackwhole, since that guy commented about BB's atypical body, and furthermore, most devil fruits abilities are recognized, and if someone in the past had the ability to steal powers, it would have been made public.
or something. anyway, Blackbeard hides the process because it's his weakness.
sig made by Itachi-y2k5, thanks, dude!
Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.
You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.
Well they did mentioned that Blackbeard could die, so he won't go around absorbing abilities if he can have more than one. And he needed first fruit to be darkness as he would have eaten others by now.

Well if BB wasn't already obvious "Last Boss" material back then...
Also i might be willing to bet that should Jimbei survive this he'll join the strawhats, all he lacks right now is a dream that can only be reached by finding One Piece
You know, with the quake fruit, Blackbeard is a whole lot more powerful now, but.... doesn't he still have the same weakness? Powerful physical attacks can still take him down.
Like others here, I think that Oda is just amping up Blackbeard to confirm that he's the final villain but having Luffy grow strong enough to defeat him is still very believable.
I've been basically approaching the whole twist here with the mindset of "it'll be interesting to see how strong all the strawhats will get to counter this new threat."
Obviously Luffy will find a way to overpower both the darkness and quake fruits against Blackbeard.
I'd also expect to see Zoro fight Shiryuu, Sanji fight Burgess, Usopp fight Auger, Nami fight Devon, etc...
For that to happen, this series will have to be far from nearing the conclusion.

Maybe being a D allows him more than one fruit? Shrug, that's what I thought that body composition from Marco meant.
He's a fake "D."Originally Posted by animus
I think whatever allows him to have two powers is something that has to do with his natural being rather than something that he acquired.
I also don't think he'll be a "Last Boss" type of guy. I would think that the "Last Boss" either hasn't been introduced or is somehow associated with the Government.
For all his powerfulness, that he looked like shit against Whitebeard and got scared shitless at one point makes me think he really doesn't have what it takes to be the final boss of the series.
At the moment Luffy doesn't have what it takes to take on the last boss of the series, but by the end of the series I can guarantee you he will. Just because Blackbeard doesn't currently have what it takes doesn't mean he wont have what it takes.Originally Posted by Munsu
I dont think he is a fake D. If he is to be Luffy's arch nemesis, he better be a D.Originally Posted by Munsu
I wouldnt look too much into Blackbeard being scared. He is a bit melodramatic. He had the same look against Ace and Luffy, yet he knew he could defeat both of them. Besides, I think Whitebeard could scare anyone shitless. Even the great admiral Akainu got his ass handed to him. The fact is, Blackbeard just obtained the power which made Whitebeard so scary. Add that to his extremely useful ability to nullify other DF users, and I dont think anyone stands a chance against him.
Lol, Oda foreshadowed this 351 chapters ago...Originally Posted by Carnage
I don't know about a cerberus fruit but there's something there and it has nothing to do with being a man of D. The obvious would be multiple personalities but i'm not naive enough to expect the obvious from Oda
Still the theory certainly has merit, especially since this new mythical Zoan type fruit was disclosed and the triskulled flag
