Whitebeard, the Strongest Man in the World- One Piece

Published

on

Edward Newgate better known as Whitebeard was one of the first Yonkou (Four Emperors) of One Piece and the greatest rival of Goal D. Roger, the Pirate King. Even before the great age of pirates, he was already known as a legendary and feared figure in the world of One Piece.

Even the World Government, the Shichibukai, and other Yonko recognize Whitebeard as the “Strongest Man in the World”, as no one was able to defeat him in direct combat, besides Roger. Despite having the strength to conquer the world, Edward just wanted to have a family.

Edward was born in the Sphinx country in the New World, he was an orphan who had to deal with poverty from an early age. His home island suffered greatly from being unable to pay the Heavenly Tribute to the World Government. Before he was the great Whitebeard, he was a dreamy pirate who wanted to start a family on the high seas.

When he became known as a powerful pirate, Rocks D. Xebec recruited him into his band along with other temperamental and dangerous individuals. After Rocks was defeated at God Valley, Whitebeard formed his own crew, the Whitebeard Pirates.

During his travels, Whitebeard welcomed several orphans and helpless pirates into his crew and formed a huge family with them all. His entire crew saw him as a father, as he loved and cared for them all as if they were his children.

A few years later, his crew crash-landed in the country of Wano, where they met Kozuki Oden, the excitable samurai who insisted on sailing with the band. Unlike the other crew members, Whitebeard respected Oden as a brother and friend rather than a son, so he ended up becoming the commander of the fleet’s 2nd division while he was a pirate.

Little Marshall D. Teach also joined the crew when he was a child, saying he was an orphan. Whitebeard accepted him, but she had no idea that this boy was plotting behind his back. As the crew grew, the band became a large pirate fleet, and its captain realized his dream of having a family.

Before the titles of Pirate King and Yonko existed, Roger and Edward stood side by side in the hierarchy of power and fame. The two grew up at the same time as strong pirates like Big Mom, Kaido, Shiki and other fearsome names, but they always lagged behind their big rivals.

According to the stories, the only ones who could match Roger and Whitebeard in strength in the past were Monkey D. Garp and Sengoku. Rocks hasn’t been seen in action yet, but he was probably comparable or even stronger than all these names since he was the captain of the future Yonkou.

Therefore, Whitebeard was at the height of piracy since his time, he was only surpassed by Roger in terms of fame when his rival became the Pirate King. Furthermore, everyone said that Whitebeard was the one most likely to become the next king, but he had no interest in fame or riches.

A few years after Roger’s death, Whitebeard followed the rise of

Portgas D. Ace, the son of his rival. Ace was remorseful about carrying the same blood as Roger, so he wanted to prove his worth by defeating the only pirate who rivaled the late king.

Even though he knew that the enemy was much stronger, Ace challenged the Yonko several times, obviously he was always defeated, but he didn’t give up. Whitebeard recognized Ace’s value and decided to invite him to his crew, but the boy always refused because he was too proud.

After fighting so many duels, Ace aroused great admiration for Whitebeard and began to see him as a father figure. So he accepted the invitation and became the new commander of the 2nd division. However, things got complicated when Teach murdered Thatch, the commander of the 4th division, and fled the boat.

As Teach’s commander, Ace felt responsible for this incident and decided to hunt down his former comrade, who now goes by the name Blackbeard. The situation only got worse when Ace lost the battle and was handed over to the World Government, who decided to execute him.

Knowing that his son was in danger, Whitebeard went to execution to save Ace, but the Navy prepared to face the Yonko and start a war that was marked in history.

Whitebeard ate the Gura Gura no Mi (Earthquake Fruit), a Paramecia with the power to create devastating earthquakes. Sengoku claims that this fruit has the power to destroy the world, which is why Edward is considered the strongest man of all.

The Gura Gura no Mi can create shockwaves that cause the earth, air, and even the sea to crack with large-scale tremors. By adding this power to his fists, Whitebeard can take down an entire army with a single blow.

Furthermore, he also excels as a Haki master. In Oden’s flashback, we saw Whitebeard’s Haki collide with Roger’s and make an entire island shake. His mastery includes the three types of Haki and even reaches the advanced level of the rarest and most powerful, King’s Haki. He can apply King’s Haki in his blows to hit the target without physically touching them, an ability so rare that only the strongest awaken.

In the Marineford saga, Sengoku summoned all Marine forces, including the

Admirals and Shichibukai, to face Whitebeard. Still, the Fleet Admiral admits that he was not sure of victory since his opponent was the Strongest Man in the World.

After so many years, Edward had already aged a lot and suffered from serious health problems, but his strength and endurance were still colossal. To save Ace, he faced several opponents along the way, and even the Admirals tried to stop him.

His situation became critical when Admiral Akainu hit him squarely with his magma power and the damage accumulated. To make matters worse, Ace decided to face the same Admiral instead of running away, a recklessness that ended up costing him his own life.

Seeing his son lying dead on the ground, Whitebeard became furious and hit Akainu with all his fury, but he ended up suffering the same fate at the hands of Blackbeard. Teach appeared in the war to face his former captain just when he was weakened and suffering mortal injuries.

To Teach’s surprise, Whitebeard still had the strength to fight and even made the traitor of his gang cry for mercy, but the Yonko was immobilized by a single gunshot. In the meantime, his body had already reached its limit and was unable to move, giving Blackbeard’s crew the chance to attack without mercy.

However, Blackbeard and everyone else at the scene were stunned to see that Whitebeard died standing up and did not kneel. The narrator took advantage of the hook to say that, during the battle, Edward received 267 sword cuts, 152 bullet shots, 46 cannon shots, in addition to the wounds inflicted by the Admirals.

Even with all this, the mark on his back remained unharmed as a symbol of his strength and pride as a pirate. His death portrayed a worthy end for the world’s strongest pirate, who refused to flee and fall literally until the end of his life.

What if Vegeta was there instead of Goku?

Fans of the Dragon Ball series always compare Goku and Vegeta. While Goku is known for his innocence, kindness, and endless strength, Vegeta is known for his pride, passion, and determination. But have you ever wondered what the story of Dragon Ball would have been like if Vegeta had been the main hero instead of Goku?

AVvXsEhqyukT bqD2ik4P9saQa 5Qwj l0fXyuL5CGDTRPWGzNacQql ezcxa sjBMGFqimJJCVKtpRlowYxOXutlNVGYt f4LeiZu21T8qby8Rd1UgonjnnUknDi565E1EfIzVh2mv8vIufk A bWXStQT3q3gt WDgndZBUNDa ZVzu2uyahiyYHc GRD7XNI=s16000

In this article, we will consider this question. Would Vegeta have become a successful hero like Goku? Would his relationships with friends have been the same? And would his strategy in facing his enemies be different from Goku’s? Come, let’s find out!

1. Vegeta’s Background: Why is it different from Goku?

Vegeta and Goku are both Saiyans but have completely different upbringings and attitudes.

Advertisement
  • Goku: Goku was raised as an innocent child on Earth. He learned to love his friends and family.
  • Vegeta: At the same time, Vegeta is proud to be the prince of the Saiyan clan. Since childhood, he dreamed of increasing his strength and proving himself to be the best.

If Vegeta had been the main character from the beginning of the story, then perhaps the atmosphere of Dragon Ball would have been a bit serious and aggressive.

2. Battle against Frieza: What would have changed?

Frieza was the biggest enemy of both Goku and Vegeta. Goku used his kindness and Super Saiyan form to defeat Frieza.

If Vegeta Was a Hero:

  • Vegeta would have used more anger and cruelty to defeat Frieza.
  • Perhaps he would have killed Frieza immediately, as he does not believe in giving second chances to enemies.
  • But unlike Goku, he does not try to reform Frieza or spare him.

3. Use of Dragon Balls: What would have been different?

Goku and his team always used the Dragon Balls for the good of others. But if Vegeta had been the main character, it might have been used a little differently.

  • Strength first: Vegeta used the Dragon Balls to increase his power.
  • Other improvements: He would try to bring back his world, the Saiyan Clan.

4. Would Vegeta have been as compassionate a hero?

Vegeta’s personality does not have the same innocence as Goku.

  • He would stand up for his friends, but his priority would always be his own strength and pride.
  • Like Goku, he probably wouldn’t have sacrificed his dreams for the good of others.
  • However, over time Vegeta has shown that he can be a good friend and companion.

5. Strategy to fight enemies: Goku vs Vegeta

Goku always tries to understand and improve his enemies.

  • Goku: He shows mercy even in battle.
  • Vegeta: At the same time, Vegeta does not make the mistake of considering his enemies as weak. He attacks with all his might.

If Vegeta had been the main hero, perhaps the enemies would never have got a second chance.

6. Relationship with Dragon Team

Goku and his team have always had a strong friendship.

  • Goku always inspired his team.
  • But if Vegeta had been the main character, perhaps his relationship with the team would have been a little tighter.

Vegeta expected more from his teammates. Perhaps he would have considered characters like Krillin, Yamcha and Tien to be weak.

7. Use of Super Saiyan Form

Both Goku and Vegeta have mastered the Super Saiyan form.

  • Goku uses it at the right time and as per the need.
  • Vegeta would probably use it again and again to show his power and pride.

8. Would the story have been better?

If Vegeta had been the main hero, the nature of Dragon Ball’s story would have changed slightly.

  • The story would have had more depth and seriousness.
  • There would have been more strategy and aggression in battle.
  • But Goku’s innocence and lack of kindness may have prevented audiences from feeling that connection.

9. Fans’ perspective

Dragon Ball fans love both Goku and Vegeta, but for different reasons.

  • Goku is loved for his kindness and positivity.
  • Vegeta is admired for his passion and determination.

If Vegeta had been the main hero, it would have been interesting to see how fans would have accepted him.

Conclusion

If Vegeta had been there instead of Goku, the story of Dragon Ball would have been completely different. But it is certain that both Goku and Vegeta are capable of leaving their mark as heroes.

What do you think about this? Do you think Vegeta would have been a better hero than Goku? Please share your opinion!

What if Naruto became a villain? Know what happens after this

What if Naruto became a villain? Imagine what would have happened!

Naruto Uzumaki, a name that brings stories of the Ninja World before our eyes. The story of Naruto has always been inspiring and courageous. But imagine for a moment, if Naruto had become a villain? This question must have come to the mind of every Naruto fan at some point or the other.

Today in this article we will discuss what would have happened if Naruto had changed his path and chosen the path of becoming “Rog” (villain). Not only would this change his story, but it would have a profound impact on his friends, his village, and the entire Ninja World.

Naruto’s Past: Possibility of Leaning Towards Evil

Naruto had a very difficult childhood. He was always alone and ignored by the entire village because of the Kyuubi (nine-tailed devil fox) locked inside it. In such a situation, it was quite possible for negativity to enter his life.

If he had allowed this hatred to overcome him, he might have used his power to destroy the world. When a person does not get love and acceptance from his own society, he often joins his own enemies.

If Naruto had joined Akatsuki

AVvXsEhskBjpADoLmlwpgRsTdRreoDK68aKB8cUCY3dsxsZf5G b 0OHaKWaAoWNuyyljHL2SCYw8AM akLPG1VBBqf5gXIhEovdgUmYjc1H7nTmGwd7Y5acTVGCa9R6912P X GjtlyQrmF1MJTFyJ2NvzRmvllEfoI6ER8ZRJO86rVNbq1y529pDb27HznRcc=s16000

Now imagine if Naruto had joined Akkatsuki. Akkatsuki’s goal was to capture all the Tailed Beasts. If Naruto worked for Akkatsuki, he would use the power of his Kyuubi to his advantage.

Naruto’s joining Akatsuki would not only make the organization stronger, but it would also create new troubles for the Hidden Leaf Village (Konoha). His new identity would make his relationship with Sasuke even more complicated.

Impact on Friends

Naruto becoming a villain would have a deep impact on the lives of his friends as well.

  • Sakura: This situation would have been extremely difficult for Sakura. On one hand she would be fighting to bring back Sasuke, and on the other hand, it would be heartbreaking for her to see this changing path of Naruto.
  • Sasuke: Sasuke and Naruto’s relationship has always been somewhere between rivalry and friendship. If Naruto had become a villain, Sasuke would have gone to any length to stop him. This fight would have been the biggest tragedy for two friends.
  • Kakashi and the village: Kakashi, who always tried to show Naruto the right path, probably felt responsible for this. At the same time, the villagers, who were never able to accept him, began to fear Naruto even more, considering him an enemy.

What would have happened to QB’s power?

Naruto’s greatest weapon is the power of his Kyuubi. If he had used this power to cause hatred and destruction, he could have put the entire world in danger.

  • Tail Beast War: If Naruto had teamed up with Akatsuki to control all the Tail Beasts, the outcome of the Tail Beast War would have completely changed. Perhaps no village would have been able to stop it.
  • Use of Six Paths of Pain: Like Nagato (Pain), Naruto would try to control the entire world by adopting the Six Paths of Pain.

But could Naruto truly become evil?

Even though Naruto had a difficult childhood, there was always one thing that kept him from becoming bad – his dream and intention. He always wanted to become Hokage. This dream gave him the strength to move forward in life.

If Naruto had not understood the importance of his family and friends, he might have become a villain. But his strong will and love for others keep him on the right path.

Becoming the villain of Naruto: Ninja World’s End?

If Naruto had truly decided to become a villain, it would have been the end of the entire Ninja World. His power and ability are so great that no one can stop him.

  1. Destruction of villages: No village is safe from Naruto’s enmity.
  2. Change of timeline: Perhaps in the story, Sasuke would have played the role of the hero and Naruto would have become the villain.
  3. Tragedy of Decision: In the end, Sasuke might have had to kill Naruto to stop him.

Conclusion

Naruto becoming a villain may seem like an interesting story, but it actually goes against his entire personality and original purpose. Naruto has always been an example of a person who chooses the right path even in difficult situations.

So, even though “What if Naruto became a villain?” His answer is exciting, in the actual story his goodness is what makes him so special.
