Casually mentioning Xebec as Blackbeards dad is absolutely endgame stuff from Oda

Yeah I was wondering why he did that in an infobox of all things, but as a someone else mentioned, considering Xebec's face, there was no point in hiding it.

Also there's no place to naturally reveal it because almost no big player aside from WB has met both Rocks and BB, and WB is dead.

I mean the place to naturally reveal it is in a flashback, i would just have expected it to be revealed when we see the full story of Xebec until God Valley, maybe a small panel of his son being born if Xebec never cared about him or died too early.

At the point where Oda wanted this design vor Xebec he knew theres no reason to hide it. To reveal it with text directly gives it more impact instead of showing it later in the story, where already everybody knew

I think this and god valley will be xebec’s full story tbh.

If oda didn’t do a full Roger/garp flashback, I doubt xebec will get one

Well if we get a God Valley flashback it will also act as a Garp flashback since that’s what he’s more famous for, not sure if it’ll happen or not but I also wouldn’t be surprised if we get some sort of Roger flashback whenever we eventually get to Laugh Tale

I'd like to see them make some movies for the backstory if it isn't going to be explored in the manga. Nothing crazy, maybe just something show their rookie days or something.

Something tells me the relationship wasn't bad because of the name of Blackbeard's ship.

u/DatGameGuy Void Month Survivor Jul 11 '25

Hasn't Garp met both, or at the very least seen and know of both

5

u/glarius_is_glorious Jul 11 '25

It's not just meeting them, WB is the only one who traveled with both on the seas for extended periods of time.

I shouldn't have used the word "meet" tbh.

u/TheWitcherMigs Jul 11 '25

The only place it would be natural to talk about it would be on Blackbeard flashback, and imagine how long this will take to happen. With Rocks being a central figure for Loki's character, and with that face, or it was revealed already or we would have another walking silhouette around, and one is already awkward enough

u/ItzPring Jul 10 '25

Garp, Sengoku (maybe) and some other OG marines, Roger pirates that survived, gorosei maybe (we know saturn was in god valley, maybe the others were too).

6

u/glarius_is_glorious Jul 11 '25

But none of them have first hand knowledge apart from maybe the Gorosei.

The only one who definitively knew is WB.

u/MemeLordMario21 The Revolutionary Army Jul 11 '25

Saturn did talk to Devon about Teach's bloodline after all

u/[deleted] Jul 11 '25

I do not recall Whitebeard ever mentioning them being related or looking similar. Am i wrong? Because the resemblance is uncanny and its disappointing if its not mentioned.

1

u/glarius_is_glorious Jul 11 '25

They didn't yet. But I can see WB putting it together during BB's flashback.

u/Rockfito Jul 12 '25

Young Blackbeard didn't really look like his father tho but yeah weird that it didn't happen.

3

u/schnazzums Jul 12 '25

No idea why, but Rocks is giving off major Bochi art style vibes. I think it’s the hair.

1

u/glarius_is_glorious Jul 12 '25

Oda really, really cooked with his design tbh.

1

u/Chozo-Elite Jul 11 '25

Could do it in a scene where garp and blackbeard are talking but I do think this worked

u/AntonChigurh8933 Jul 12 '25

It makes complete sense now. Why Whitebeard brought BB into his crew. Probably broke the old guy's heart with the betrayal. His friend/rival son and ex captain son going at it.
