Question of the Day

shanks said he was afraid for ace cuz of his scar which he received from BB bcuz he waited till the perfect moment and did everything smart to scar shanks eye, meaning he knows hes 1 of the few lvl pirates at the time could wound shanks AND survive/get away alive so he fears for ace cuz he knows how devious and patient BB is. i also think i remember BB saying he got to read a book about dfs "on WBs ship", otherwise for reasons he may... -spoilers- to b continued at a later date :P lol

chris

I've always chuckled at the idea that maybe BB smuggled an apple in his pocket and made sure he would be the closest person to WB when WB dies just so WB's fruit could be transferred to that apple and voila.. BB munches on the "apple" under the curtain and because of his "weird body" he can have two devil fruits at once? lol yeah that's what i got

NeddaSai

I'm pretty sure someone from Batibochika and other reaction content hounds are doing that as well. Fuck those people.

ConwayYeety

ya, wow didnt notice till u said it, happily been *prince of saiyans* for around 5 months, shes totally worth every penny, hopefully she gets her deserved 2000k patrons soon :) <3

chris

bro i just wanna say so many of you are all snakes. every time the first of the month comes around you guys unsubscribe cant even afford a damn dollar yall are pathetic

big booty krillin

i think its both his "strange body" and the fact he didnt eat another df, thats always been said, no1 has every "eaten" another devil fruit and lived :)

chris

Blackbeard devil fruit so rare that it can allow him to have two devil fruits

Ch4rmer

What I think right

Ch4rmer

Given to him by the previous ope ope no mi user

Luisssssss

I have a theory (not a spoiler since even in the manga we don't know) that Blackbeard has the ability with his Yami Yami fruit to suck in the powers of a devil fruit as it leaves the newly dead Devil Fruit user. If you remember in Dressrosa we see a diagram of the process of how the Devil Fruit ability passes on : https://i.imgur.com/KBvZp8X.png In this picture we see a little spirit like thing leave the dead body of a DF user. That is what Blackbeard sucks in shortly after Whitebeard died. That's why he said he was glad he made it to Marineford before Whitebeard died. If he's there at the time of death of a DF user I think he can suck in the little spirt thing that gives him the power. Now, how he can absorb it without dying I have no idea..

dooperco

"they" meaning, he has a crew in that island.

ConwayYeety

I guess BB consumed Fruit inside him before it transferred ? Maybe he eat his body flesh just like little Big mom has eaten whole Carmel.

Matija Krog

There is a theory that BB has actually three df powers or he is hunting for third .

Matija Krog

Maybe blackbeard has two stomachs

Ch4rmer

Some important information which you may have missed. 1. BB reveals his reason when fighting Ace as to why he killed Thatch. He has a book that is a catalog of all of the devil fruits. When he kills Thatch, it’s because he knew based on his knowledge of the book that the Yami Yami fruit is what Thatch acquired. 2. When he takes WB’s devil fruit powers, Marco comments that he has no ordinary body. This not only means his body is unique, but this information is probably not ‘super secret’; I would argue this is why WB told Ace not to go after BB. And why Shanks is scared of BB. I can’t reveal my theory without spoilers but let’s just say ... Marshall D. Teach ... as seen when Im has poster of BB and Luffy cut up. Im knows that the will of D, isn’t necessary a linear line waiting for a successor which is Luffy. But that the will of D branches into different ideaologies and that BB has inherited a different will of D than Luffy. And is most likely receiving help from this will of D. If the will of D is to take down the WG ... then it branches into two ideologies with the same goal. With Teach taking the side of a more sinister approach that cares not for the consequences but to achieve to goal. While Luffy inherits one that shares the same goal but puts the welfare of the world in consideration. As you said, to the reveal of Im and the secret of the Celestial dragons. Is it the devil fruit? And where would Teach get a book on devil fruits, wouldn’t that be a great treasure!? Something that not even the government (such as CP 0) knows. Where or why would BB get or have a special body?

Cheng Vang

I feel that Blackbeard had a few pieces of fruit on him. Or, the fruit doesn't respawn instantly, and Blackbeard took a bite out of him, ala Big Mom style

godUsoland

The real question: What would have happened at Marineford if Bonney went there, and de-aged Whitebeard?

godUsoland

my guy walked up to the corpse with a banana what you mean!

big booty krillin

BD7-

We are yet to know how blackbeard was able to eat 2 devilfruits, some says its his Yami Yami no Mi and some says that he's got a different body that a normal human, myself I think that he has more than 1 soul within him and that allowed him to eat both the Yami. and the Gura. When luffy first met blackbeard at java island, zoro and luffy mentionned that he wasn't alone after his speech "poeple dreams never end". Nami mentionned bleakbeard as He, Luffy and Zoro told her that he is They, probably one of the best moment in one piece to be honest.

BD7-

it was illustrated in dresrosa that, devilfruit had a wings and flew away to nearest fruit, if that's the case it's a possibility that if it's dark bb can catch it using his darkness (gravity) before transporting to nearest fruit and transplant powers into him because he had abnormal body as marco mentioned.

Golden Ouken

My guess is it's innate to the shadow fruit or whatever it's called. Blackbeard was so set on that specific fruit since he joined WB, and he's a scheming guy, but who knows. There's another point that supports this but it isn't in the anime for you yet so I won't spoil.

Loro Lukic

Marco stated that BB has a weird body

Avery

It must be in the spinal fluid ;D Dood this ain't Attack on Titan xD

Nakos

he couldve just been close nearby, and had a apple in his pocket or something, and just used the tarp to scare people, and make them think he has a secret ability/ way to take a ability.

Webster91

My theory is this. Inanimate objects can eat devil fruits, right? What if Blackbeard has a fake arm and it ate the devil fruit? They say that inanimate objects eating devil fruits is a new technique developed recently in the Grand Line. What if Blackbeard learned of this and since the technique isn't widely known, he wanted to keep it secret.

Friends4Never

My personal theory is that Blackbeard ate a part of Whitebeard and used the tarp to add an element of secrecy to the technique of obtaining devil fruits from other users. The reason I believe this is because Oda gives us two examples of DF transfer: 1) “essence” transferring from dying user to fruit, and 2) consuming a DF user like Big Mom is assumed to have obtained the Soul Soul Fruit. Maybe, the fruit essence lies in the heart. Wouldn’t that be vicious? It would explain the tarp as a censor.Like others have said, however, it may have something to do with BB’s fruit as well, but BB being crazy prepared probably also had a fruit on him just to make sure he’d get the Quake Quake Fruit.

Zonum

At this point people just trying to copy me unsuccessfully xD

Nakos

I think Blackbeard's Yami Yami power absorbed Whitebeard's powers before they left his body. I suposse Devil fruit power doesnt instantly leave a person after dying, maybe they stay for a while, and Blackbeard had a theory if this. It was just a theory, because Shiryu was like "if this doesnt work we'll have to disband" And the fact that Blackbeard was able to have two devil fruit powers its just because his body is absurdly strong, so maybe it was possible he died while absorbing Whitebeard's power but he was willing to take that risk

Mario Caleb Chaparro Hernández

Personally I think it's something to do with the complete darkness and his yami-yami. But it also could be something as simple as yes he knew DFs go to the nearest fruit, figured out which fruit WBs goes to and just brought one to his corpse and waited for it. As for how he can actually consume 2? Fuckifiknow lmao Hopefully revealed in the future. The Cerberus flag is a huge hint but I don't really understand the hint or what it could be alluding to, but we'll see.

SupremeCai

True his flag do have 3 skulls. Only one I've seen like that

Allona Roberson

Yeah either his Jolly Roger is a huge hint or a way to throw all our speculations off. I mean, isn’t he the only pirate with multiple skulls in its design. Correct me if I’m wrong.

Levy

Thats a good question allona. Im pretty sure Oda will reveal it later. Btw have u ever notice Blackbeard flag ?? Thats another good question 🤔🤔

Nahuel D. Rosa

Maybe bb kept and assortment of fruits inside his body via his black hole abilities and waited till one formed into the gura gura no mi

Trento

yeah his dark dark fruit is logia and the wb fruit is paramethia he needs zoan and he will have 3 df

Marwan Alkreny

Thx!^^ The other theory would be that he ate the Cerberus fruit or something. That would explain BB's 3-headed jolly roger and Marco saying about BB that something is different with his body so he can absorb more than 1 DF power.

Nakos

We actually do have an idea as to how long it takes for a Df to transfer after the user dies. We saw it happen almost immediately following Smiley’s death in on Punk Hazard. The fruit transferred to the nearest sack of apples almost immediately after Smiley’s existence faded. However we don’t know if that exactly the case for every DF. EDIT: Oh! I see you pointed this out in an earlier comment already :p

Levy

Couldn’t sworn they showed Doc Q handing over some fruit to black beard, or something like that

Doffy

He has a logia type?

Kuro Shishio

I was thinking the same thing. But then I figured BB probably had a fruit on him and was that was the closest fruit to WB at the time.

Kuro Shishio

If darkness consumes things then it could consume devil fruit powers. I have some vague theories for how it could work but you need to catch up with the manga before it can be discussed lol

SomeoneElse

Teach's Dark-Dark Fruit had something to do with it. That's way they put over a dark cover over them.

James Bender

I’m thinking it’s just his darkness fruit being OP, maybe the vortex thing he uses to pull people toward him

Zelos

Im asking this because as soon as Caesar's experiment died it quickly transferred. Thanks guys for your theories🙂

Allona Roberson

That’s for Oda to know and for us to find out once he reveals the madness behind his genius!!!

Phantaminum

Prevailing theory is that he ate apart of him before it transferred

B00ch

I think when Blackbeard and his crew killed whitebeard, before his spirit/soul left his body they put that black tarp over him (To me it makes sense that he has a logia but isn’t like enel or smoker, he ate the darkness fruit so unless he’s in total darkness he won’t be fully logia type) so with the total darkness under the tarp he absorbed the devil fruit essence out of near dead body of whitebeard!

Mitch Macc

mmm with the DF I loss ! !xD Im waiting when Vegapunk appers and star speaking, I need to know. But I think is something about de BB devil F. If I remenbered BB had the DF book. Maybe He Know something.

Esteban Valverde

Honestly in all of the comments, you're comment looks legit, like most of the people has totally missed her point and they are going on and on about something else.

KillerB

that's a good theory but almost all of you guys have missed her point. she meant that when someone dies their fruit is transferred or leaves their body to regrow. so if wb died first at MF wouldn't his fruit leave his body first before BB could take it? She isn't asking how BB is able to use 2 fruits or whatnot.

KillerB

I mean.....BB said it himself when he fought Ace "The other thing my darkness can absorb is Devil Fruit powers".

Dimitri

yeah but don't forget he was basically the boss of underground market, so he could've just bought it since logia fruits are powerful in general. So we can't say that it transferred to a fruit near by at MF when Ace died because if that were the case. then the same should've happened to Yuki Yuki no Mi, like when Monet died her fruit should've gone to sunny since there's a tree full of fruits

KillerB

As everyone else is saying, the time it takes for a fruit to transfer hasn't been explained yet so Blackbeard probably had a fruit on him. I don't think it had anything to do with his powers because Burgess and the rest of his crew hunt devil fruits so they probably just kill the devil fruit user and wait for the fruit to transfer to one of the fruits they all carry on them.

Baysiri

I think the df power transferred to the closest fruit and he was the closest, but the question is how can he use 2 devil fruits not how he got it . Marco said that its related to blackbeard body. so he might even get 3 and thats a popular theory that he eats 3 devil fruits 1 from every type he has 2 now still he doesnt have a zoan type yet...

Marwan Alkreny

Maybe Blackbeard was carrying a fruit with him so it transfer to that, or he might just ate some part of black beard like how big mom ate mother carmel.

Hikari D Xebec

the key is in his DF, it can probably absorb anything. even the untangible things. wouldn't say much but i think that it is.

Bryan Cruz

When a DF user dies the DF power (essence) leaves his body flying upwards or whatever and then manifesting itself again in the nearest fruit of a matching type. (That's what everybody says at least but i think i remember somewhere they said it is random, not necessarily the nearest) What BB did was cover WB's body completely in darkness so nothing could escape (he can even suck in devil fruit powers as he said himself in the fight vs ace. Since the df powers are kind of "locked" to the user BB couldn't permanently suck aces power but only as long as he touched him. And since WB died his power was not locked to his body anymore so it will fly away). So all BB did was to catch the free flying DF essence before it could leave and absorbed it completely. I hope you get what i am trying to say. P.S. Also that would also mean that the way he can hold multiple DF powers is because they are not directly stored in his body (that would kill him) but rather stored in his infinite darkness black hole pocket. There is a theory that he ate another DF which enabled him to eat more than 1 DF but that's another topic

Nakos

Unfortunately it hasn't been explained yet

Xavier Simpson

Well also due to Ace's power returning in the form of a Devil Fruit that made its way into Doflamingo's hand. Granted we have no idea how or when he obtained it.

Arjun Senpai

Blackbeard most likely had a fruit on him. Idk if you remember but during the dressrosa arc burgess said that the Blackbeard pirates are notorious devil fruit hunters and that’s why he was there for Ace’s fruit. The real question is how did Doflamingo get Ace’s fruit 🤷‍♂️

Geovanny Ortiz

maybe Blackbeard was carrying a Fruit in his pocket and Whitebeards DF power got transferred into that Fruit(closest one)🤔😂

Not gonna lie the first thing I thought about when Blackbeard all of a sudden had wb fruit power after being covered in that black sheet with the body was that “did Blackbeard actually just take a bite out of whitebeard?”

Sage Sensei

There is a lot of theories about that. The famous one i think is with is devil fruit, he manage to extarct WB'S devil fruit somehow

Solar's Abs

All we potentially know so far, is that it somehow involves Blackbeard’s devil fruit power. If you think back to his fight with Ace he was able to nullify and be gate Ace’s fire devil fruit powers so in this case he could potential he use his darkness fruit powers to extract and absorb another devil users fruit use his darkness ability all this speculation in might be in my opinion 😅

Fogang

Blackbeard would probably hunt down the devil fruit, most likely try to kill whoever ate the fruit. But I assume since his crew steals devil fruit powers now that they must carry fruits on them so they would use whatever method they planned on using to steal Sabo’s or Luffy’s fruit and the other fruits they have stolen.

HowardisBoss

There are theories that each power only transfers to the same fruit, and that Blackbeard had the same fruit that the Gura Gura no Mi came from, which is why it transferred to him. There's no actual proof of this though, and it makes no sense that he'd cloak himself and Whitebeard's body if that was all it took. It's theorized that, similar to how Blackbeard's Yami Yami no Mi is capable of drawing in and cancelling out others' devil fruit powers, he's doing this to a dead body that contained a devil fruit and holding it down within himself. Again, just a theory. No proof as of yet.

Arjun Senpai

My theory is that Blackbeard had the fruit it would have transferred to with him and he just ate it when Whitebeard died.

Kyron Leggett

That's a question we are still trying to figure out. My best bet is he had a fruit on him?? Maybe something to do with his darkness fruit?? Who knows. And we probably won't know till way later on

Shaun Hudson

well that is a great question and im sorry to say this but there hasn't been anything in which Oda has explained that theory. So my guess is that WB might not have actually died at that second, eg, like WB might have been on the road of crossing to the other side or that the DF takes some time for it to be transferred from it's dead owner's body to something else. Also, I don't remember Oda ever saying that a DF will transfer to a fruit near by, so I think everyone is saying this because of what they saw on Punk Hazard

KillerB

We don't know exactly the time it takes to transfer. I'm guessing there's a small time window before the devil fruit transfers to another fruit. Probably Blackbeard did it within the time window.

We still aren’t sure on how it went down but people seem to think that black beard had a fruit on him during the battle now how he ate it with out dying is still up in the air

Jabrone Taylor

That's the question, isn't it?

He could have a fruit basket laying around, or maybe it takes time before the ability transfers.

Duke

Thats a question we still dont know 😂
