One group actually actively hunting marines by issuing their own bounty system
One group is actively trying to expand and make their own chaotic empire/kingdom
One group is just enjoying traveling/adventuring but constantly causing headache to world govt.
One group have rather stable, safe, reasonable empire but about to set sail for One Piece.
compare to the old 4,
at least 3 is a stable leader with Whitebeard, Shanks and Bigmom having rather prosperous territory.
only one Kaidou who constantly warring and stockpiling weaponry.

u/Filmologic 25d ago
But even Kaido didn't really do much outside of Wano, and especially not outside the New World. He was preparing for war, and could've relatively easily conquered most if not any of the Blues, but he kept to himself until he was able to topple the world government itself.

u/zyh0 25d ago
The previous emperors were in a giant stalemate since none of them could act on the other without leaving their territories. Whitebeard had no interest in the One Piece, he just defended his islands. Although Whitebeard did want vengeance on Kaido for Oden but they were afraid of the civilian casualties.
To build on your point, that's why Cracker made the comment that barely anyone has heard Big Mom's voice let alone seen her in real life. They RARELY leave their territories. Even when Blackbeard joined, he didn't act until Luffy caused enough chaos in Whole Cake Island for Big Mom to leave her territory.

No way shanks really wants the one piece, he just wants to man up ruffy in disguise. (Conspiricy theory)

I want your flair

Every time someone mentions my flair, I forget I have it, and I’m kindly reminded of its beauty.
Also I think there was an option to make your own flair, and that’s what I did.

u/case_oh-isfat 25d ago
Nice, I'm on mobile though and I don't even think I can get a flair, and if I can than I don't know how

You can, but since it’s been so long since I did it, I have forgotten. Sorry bud.

Yeah and whats the use of having poneglyph imprints if no one can read except robin

u/Young_Cato_the_Elder 25d ago
Big Mom is trying to train Pudding to read it by awakening DF and Kaido thought someone in Wano could read or hear it since they made it.

u/canchin 25d ago
It's easy to forget since Kaido and Big Mom teamed up at the end, but the original 4 emps were caught in a deadlock in the New World. Each had expansive territory that if ever encroached would have most likely resulted in all out war. It's why the Navy had to always keep eyes on their movements.
To say Kaido and Linlin were just comfortable chilling is pretty silly

u/ZPD710 25d ago
Woah woah. Let’s not act like Luffy hasn’t fought some of the most secretive members of the World Government, or like Blackbeard doesn’t currently have the Hero of the Marines captive. Shanks might be tough right now, but so are Luffy and Blackbeard.

u/FBI_Senpai_Kun 25d ago
So are we going to pretend Fraudbeard didn't soil his pants at Bepo using a rumble ball?
78
u/ZPD710 25d ago
Straight up just plot so that Law didn’t die. Also keep in mind that Shanks was also worried about Kidd wiping out his entire fleet, he just had the initiative to defeat Kidd before that happened (Blackbeard already defeated the main threat: Law. No shit he didn’t expect his polar bear to turn into a giant monster and then slap the shit out of him).
63
u/Fenrir_Hellbreed2 25d ago
I mean, not really. Blackbeard has kind of always been a bitch. The only reason he does anything is because his Devil Fruit is busted.
If I'm not mistaken, doesn't he basically shit himself every time he faces someone he can't hard counter or backstab?
33
u/ThisIsToMarkResearch 25d ago
Yea, his logia doesn't behave like others he can't become darkness.

u/Xystrel 25d ago
I'm kinda wondering if it'll be explained why it's still considered a logia and not just an OP paramecia
16
u/Altaccount948362 25d ago
It's still considered a logia since the fruit grants the user the control of a natural element found in the world. Being able to disperse and regenerate, although an unique property of other logia's, is not what decides if a fruit is considered one or not.
4
u/Comfortable_Cut_7334 25d ago
I'm pretty sure it should be 'a unique' since unique starts with the sound of 'y' and in this specific context, y wouldn't be considered a vowel.
1
u/Fenrir_Hellbreed2 25d ago
I think that ultimately depends on dialect. Where I'm from it would also be "a unique", though.
2
u/Comfortable_Cut_7334 25d ago
Probably.
I know it's really unrelated but something about seeing 'an unique' really threw me off and felt really weird.

u/jackofslayers 25d ago
It can be both. Deffo a bit of plot armor keeping Law away from the final blow but it was also in character for Blackbeard.
Blackbeard only likes to take sure victories. He is definitely the type to just say “What is that power up? It honestly doesn’t look very strong but I have never seen it before so Ima nope outta here just to be safe”
3
u/Psychological_Fix304 25d ago
Yeah
Because he has a brain unlike some...
5
u/Fenrir_Hellbreed2 25d ago
If that's the argument we're using then no one can ever shit talk Usopp again.
Blackbeard has arguably the most busted DF in the verse (Nika is only busted in the right hands so that's more subjective). If it's not cowardly when he bitches out then it's not fair to say it's cowardly when Usopp does.

Plenty of other characters would've said "fuck it, we ball" and came out swinging anyway.
Justify it however you want, Blackbeard bitched out.

u/Le_mehawk 25d ago
it was made very obvious that shanks's fleet is rather weak, and it is mostly shanks crew that's holding it together. Kidd has enough fire power to wipe out small fly's in one go, and shanks prevented it because he cares for his people. Shank's wasn't afraid of any attack that would've been directed towards himself.
Also blackbeard had to use half of his team to defeat law himself, in an ( awesome animated) battle scene, while shanks straight up one shot a character at the same level.

u/potat_infinity 25d ago
shank's fleet is super weak though, hed be worried about literally anybody wiping them out.

Yeah exactly, I bet even that even Higuma could wipe them out LoL

He did too against Rayleigh yet Rayleigh admitted he would lose against him.
Blackbeard is not afraid of his opponents he runs away from fights because due to his devil fruit he knows he is gonna suffer with every hit he takes.
1
u/SoftCreamer 25d ago
Fraudbeard gets tremors in his skin thinking about Shanks, not the other way around. Him not having a quick, get the fuck off me, against even the angriest of Bepo's, division one fraudling right there. No way Shanks doesn't cook him.

u/YT_the_Investor 25d ago edited 25d ago
I think Shanks and Luffy would find it hilarious and have a good laugh about it. Blackbeard would have a dark laugh about it too, just because it would validate his worldview that the world is basically just chaos that doesn’t make sense and people should have ambitions because its possible to rise up even in unpredictable ways like this. So I think in a way it would amuse/delight him
5
u/Psychological_Fix304 25d ago
Nah, BB would be super confident against Luffy and Shanks because they became Yonko normally
But Against Buggy, he'd crap his pants. Buggy is an unknown he can't plan around him he must have some trick surely but how? And thus Buggy saves Shanks from his death at the hand of BB

u/Moorific 25d ago
This was my thought as someone who only casually follows the one piece story through synopses. “Buggy is a fucking Yonko?!”
27
u/MaskedMaidenOrz 25d ago
Don't know why everyone acts like Blackbeard is a clown or goofy. In lore he's pretty terrifying and can and will kill if he feels like it. He is almost always in control with some backup or underhanded tactics that puts him on top. Also the two devil fruits putting him in a class of fear never before seen.

Nope they didn't fighted here only we know Shanks stopped Kaido here but there was no battle.
2
u/case_oh-isfat 25d ago
Well think about it this way. If Kaido is stronger than shanks than that means that Luffy and the team he brought together to beat kaido would beat shanks, and that would mean he's going to give shanks the strawhat soon, but he's not in laughtale yet and nothing has pointed to him giving his hat back soon
1
u/Disastrous-Answer151 25d ago
Wano squad can beat any Yonko right now so it's normal. Also we are close to end of the One Piece, probably Luffy and Shanks fight each other then Luffy give the straw hat. But this just a theory so doesn't mean any sense right now.

u/Disastrous-Answer151 25d ago

u/Loros_Silvers Firm Uta Defender 25d ago
Ayo that not true. Luffy has power over a large fleet and friends in many places like Royalty. Teach is making direct moves to influance the world and has the hero of the marines captive and a crew made of monsters, Shanks is no joke and Buggy, while his crew is the weakest one among the emperors, with Mihawk being the sole reason why top tiers are actually scared of them (sorry croc but it's post TS Lugias are nerfed) but buggy has MASSIVE influance over the world. New emperors are not joking.

That's only with those he cares about.
To everyone else he's as cold and deadly as shown when he first encountered Ace and when Shanks came to visit him and used the Snitch-Snitch Fruit.

E×FJ indicates that person likes to create social harmony and uphold the values of the social group that he's in, going in imense pain to go against it. This type is also very extroverted, charismatic and responsible giving them leadership in the groups that they're in most of times. ×N×× indicates that they understand thing in archetypes and abstractions, indicated by use of metaphors and abstract goals. ENFJs are also strong willed and know how to impose them.
That's why those three are this type.
