What i wanna say here was the pacing wasn´t good and Oda should have sacrificed some of Luffys spotlight to Whitebeard. On top of that whitebeard had only three maybe 4 badass momments if you consider the Blackbeard fight.įirst one was his appearence the second him sending the marines flying and the third his fight vs Akainu Yes I know Akainu had to stay alive for story development, but he got his son killed! Anyway this is a personal matter i just think considering he survived THIS: Oda pulled another Pell on us. Oda could have let the Admirals team up against him that would have ben the perfect solution imo.Īnd to be honest I think Oda tolled the poor guy, he fucking deserved that kill on Akainu more than anyone else. If he didn´t do that and his "potential" was higher he should have been able to fucking save his beloved son and "kill" Akainu in a 1vs1 scenario, I mean Jozu was beaten and Marco was taken out by seastone. As for the injury "he let himself getting injured". I mean the being old aspect doesnt count, he still could take hits like a boss and I didn´t see him sitting in a fucking wheelchair, so he could move. People claim, he was old, he was injured, yet this makes his character even more pathetic. After the timeskip Luffy oneshots a giant in Dressrosa.

People may claim now that he oneshotted a giant, Fuck even giants can be fodder in OP, Luffy could injure Woogey in the Alabasta arc. Probably the most badass scene in OP but it´s still just 2 minutes. Besides sending some marines flying he didn´t beat anyone significant. He always talks about how he wants to go all out, tries to intimidate Luffy but continues yelling orders. Jozu fought vs Aokiji and blocked Mihawks attack. He was titled "strongest" in the world, yet Luffy had to use his Haki to stop Aces execution. Whitebeard barely did anything there, considering his mentioned power, most of it was just people calling out on him. Don´t get me wrong here I don´t wanna start a hatewar or anything it´s just an opinion I want to point out, which is something I realized after rewatching the marineford arc.
