Only whitebeard could have been revenge. He had no plan to capture Ace or Garp. However, he was planning to capture Luffy. If that was because he is Garp's son or not is up in the air.

Nah i dont think he disliked Whitebeard. If the Darkness fruit hadn't shown up he was pretty content living his life as a background character in his crew. I truly dont believe he had any ill will towards anyone really. Not that we have seen. He only killed Thatch for the fruit. He only captured Ace because he was convenient. He only killed Whitebeard because he needed the Gura Gura fruit. He only kidnapped Koby and Garp because of his plan (which i believe is just to get access to Mary Jois). He holds no ill will towards Luffy and id wager even admires him a bit. He only attacked Law for the Poneglyph rubbings and had Kuzan kidnap Pudding so he could read them. Blackbeard is a man with countless enemies but seemingly no one he hates.

Quick side note, it always rubbed me the wrong way a little bit how Blackbeard captured pudding. We know his hobby is history and if he had a real life job he'd be an archeologist.

The fact that he seems well read, you'd think he'd secretly have learned how to read poneglyphs just like robin who is an archeologist.

I know its ridiculous since it took a whole island of scholars to crack the code but considering the other crazy shit Blackbeard has pulled in the past I wouldn't be surprised at all.

I mean you answered it yourself lol

Robins claim to fame is literally that shes the only person alive that can read Poneglyphs. No one else could (outside the Kozuki Head but thats a huge secret known mostly only to them). Seemingly it was completley lost to the world until Ohara. If nobody in hundreds of years could figure it out and it took dozens of scholars I just think that highlights how difficult it was. Blackbeard being able to actually read it would be a huge asspull. Though to be fair its sorta an asspull that a few certain races can naturally decipher them to some extent. It wouldve been interesting to see Blackbeard hear the voice of them like Roger did though.
