Speculation on Blackbeard's Three Souls and Three Bodies

Blackbeard bent his knees slightly, then suddenly exerted force, rapidly retreating. How much he had longed to draw in Devil Fruit users before.

I desperately want to get away from Moke right now.

No... I want it even more!

"Shave..."

Moke instantly entered a high-speed movement state.

Blackbeard's pupils contracted sharply upon seeing this, then he turned to look to his left, as his Observation Haki had pinpointed the location where Moke might appear.

"Not good..."

Blackbeard's expression changed drastically.

He immediately transformed into his Zoan Hybrid Form, his wings rapidly unfurling before he gave a powerful jolt, propelling him straight into the sky at an astonishing speed.

"Dual Abilities - Dark Water!"

Moke raised his hand and activated his ability towards Blackbeard in the air, and a vortex appeared in his hand once again.

Blackbeard, who had already flown hundreds of meters into the air, felt an irresistible and terrifying suction force pull him in, causing his upward flight to plummet rapidly.

Finally, it was sucked towards the ground.

"Click click..."

Moke's right fist slammed out, activating his Quake-Quake ability. Space shattered... and Blackbeard seemed to be struck from afar.

"Pfft..."

A mouthful of blood spurted from Moke Kezi's mouth, and his face turned deathly pale.

Moke didn't stop, punching again and again... one punch after another. By the time he was sucked back to the ground, he had already taken ten punches.

The power of the Quake-Quake is terrifying!

And this was a full-force attack... You can imagine how badly Blackbeard was hurting. Fortunately, he could still use Mythical Zoan as long as he wasn't touched.

The human was also in a beastman state; otherwise, he would have already lost his ability to fight.

Even in his orc form, a quarter of his bones were broken, and his internal organs suffered severe damage.

What made Blackbeard even more desperate was that Moke had already touched his body.

"It's over..."

Sure enough, the next second, Moke punched him hard on the head. The combined power of Quake-Quake and Sonic Wave was too strong, and it knocked Blackbeard unconscious.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

Moke was panting heavily, having used two abilities in quick succession. In the end, he used four abilities simultaneously, and his stamina was being drained like water.

If the fight continues, Blackbeard won't fall, but I'll be the one who can't hold on any longer.

"Brush..."

He transformed into a beam of light, retrieved two fruits from the island, and then returned to Blackbeard's side.

Soon, he sucked the two demons out of Blackbeard's body and pressed them back into the fruit.

"Call..."

He'd already done that, so there was nothing to surprise him. The crucial part was yet to come... Moke pressed his hand down on Blackbeard's head.

"Lineage Absorption..."

As expected, under the influence of his ability, Moke felt significant changes in his body.

Blackbeard, a multi-powered individual, has always been a controversial figure, with many different theories circulating about him...

However, one thing is very clear.

That is, Blackbeard's body is an alien, because this is what Marco said in the original Summit War, and it is absolutely true.

This should be an open secret within the Whitebeard Pirates; everyone in the crew knows that Blackbeard has an alien body.

The rule is that you can only eat one Devil Fruit; if you eat a second one, the Devil's power will clash within your body, causing you to explode and die. This is an ironclad rule. However, Blackbeard obtained Whitebeard's Devil Fruit Ability. Marco only speculated that it was related to Blackbeard's mutated body, but he didn't explicitly say where the Blackbeard body was.

Another important point is that Blackbeard has never slept.

In the latest chapter, after the Roger Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates reached a truce, Buggy and Shanks, apprentices of the Roger Pirates, and Blackbeard, an apprentice of the Whitebeard Pirates, stood guard and kept watch on each other. Buggy told Shanks that he noticed Blackbeard never slept during the fighting and the truce.

Furthermore, it is rumored that Blackbeard has never slept a single night since birth. This is because Blackbeard's body is shared by three souls, who take turns resting within the body, creating the illusion that Blackbeard does not sleep.

This view has many supporters.

This claim is supported by crucial evidence: the gaps in the Blackbeard's teeth are often in different positions.

The gaps in Blackbeard's teeth vary depending on the stage of his appearance. This is because his body is controlled by three souls in turn, and the gaps in the teeth are in different positions for each soul, which causes this phenomenon.

Blackbeard's pirate flag features three heads, which also hints at Blackbeard physical characteristics— Blackbeard three souls coexist within his body.

Of course, there's only one body, so it's impossible for the missing teeth to be in different positions. However, this might be Oda's foreshadowing of three souls coexisting within the body.

Moke has always agreed with this statement.

However, after successfully absorbing Blackbeard's bloodline, he discovered... he had made a complete mistake.

As mentioned before, the soul cannot influence the location of a tooth gap. Different tooth gap locations can only have one cause.

Those are different bodies.

Blackbeard possesses three different bodies, yet they are intricately connected.

It changes every eight hours throughout the day. Or rather, there are three different Lineage Factor in his body.

These three different Lineage Factor vie for control of the body, resulting in a monstrous creature like Blackbeard...

Devil Fruit are attached to one's Lineage Factor.

Just like Vegapunk, who extracted Kaido's Lineage Factor to create the Dragon-Dragon Fruit. This is because once someone eats Devil Fruit, the Devil within the Devil Fruit merges with their Lineage Factor.

Therefore, when extracting bloodline factors, what is being referred to is not simply Kaido's Lineage Factor, but rather the Lineage Factor resulting from the fusion of Kaido and the Devil in the Devil Fruit.

For example, Seraphim.

They are clones of former members of the Shichibukai, but they have been enhanced by incorporating the bloodline of Alber (Jin) of the Lunarian Tribe.

So although they look exactly like the Shichibukai in their childhood, their skin is different from the original Shichibukai.

Seraphim possess artificial blood called "Green Blood."

Green Blood contains the Lineage Factor of Paramecia Devil Fruit User, which can Seraphim the corresponding abilities.

In other words, he can still eat two more Devil Fruit.

Although Dark-Dark Fruit was strong, he was the first to be eliminated...

His gaze fell on the Zoan - Mythical Zoan Beast... He was getting impatient.

"Brubru..."

But just then, his Den Den Mushi rang.

After receiving the signal, Ata's voice rang out. "Captain, we finally got the location of Gild Tesoro's treasure vault from him, and we even obtained two Devil Fruits from it."

When the Devil Fruit came up, Ata's whole demeanor radiated excitement.

"Hmm?" Moke was slightly taken aback.

Gild Tesoro's collection is definitely extraordinary. Therefore, he put down the Devil Fruit he had already picked up.

He asked, "Tell me, what kind of Devil Fruit is it?"

Ata: "Logia - Static-Static Fruit. While it's not as good as Enel's Rumble-Rumble Fruit, it's definitely a top-tier Devil Fruit. The other one is..."
