Teach... Teach makes me angry and frustrated and hurt for the characters in ways Sengoku just... does not. Not even Akainu, and I have wanted him dead since the Ohara flashback.

So. Yeah. He is worse.

I am praying for my sanity that Blackbeard did not open the gate. Reason likes to point out that, well, he could not conceivably have had enough time to get down to level 6, free those prisoners, and get to Marinford in time. Even if he hadn't freed those prisoners he should not have had enough time.
