Chapter 576

[eiliem]

"Family."

Oh Whitebeard. You. You went so far beyond family. You were Oyaji to 44 pirate crews.

And it makes this line:

"Was I a good father?"

so much more heartbreaking and meaningful.

The world's strongest man - he could have been Pirate King. He could have been anything. He didn't care about treasure. Or Raftel or One Piece.

He just wanted family.


"The men that Roger waits for are a very rare few... but not you Teach. You are not one of them."

!!!!!

Whitebeard I love you. I love you I love you I love you.

And he pwns Blackbeard! If that traitor rat bastard hadn't brought scary powerful backup (and if Whitebeard hadn't been on his last legs) Whitebeard would have killed him. Yes, with half his face missing.

THIS MAN! HOW IS HE SO AWESOME!?!?!?! ☆＿☆ ;___;


And he and Roger talked! Before he died! They were... friendly O_o

&hearts

And Roger told him everything! He would have given him the way to Raftel too. I... can you really call them enemies?


CONFIRMATION! One Piece is real!

I mean... well, yes, obviously. But still - Whitebeard confirms it to the world and Sengoku does not like this!

And something about D and One Piece is going to lead to a world war. D and One Piece are connected?


And he dies standing. It's... wrong but also so right. Unbowed, even in death.

... he has the same tattoo on his back that Ace had.

Heart. Is broken.


EDIT: Whitebeard's line: And have also come to carry the will of the late Ace slayed me. It's stupid stupid stupid I know to hope that somehow somewhere there will be a One Piece miracle to fix Ace because him dying after all this is just too cruel. And that line just... like Oda's going "Nyah nyah he's deeeaad".

Ow. ;_;
