One Piece: 4 Characters Whose Strength Feels Watched Out by Blackbeard

Blackbeard is actually quite reckless in One Piece. At Marineford, he looks brave enough to face Sengoku.

In Impel Down he also had time to prepare against Magellan... even though that ended badly for him, because then Blackbeard and his group were hit by Hydra.

But there are several One Piece characters whose strength Blackbeard feels wary of. Blackbeard seemed unwilling to fight them if the situation wasn't right.

Anyone? Here are four One Piece characters whose strength Blackbeard feels wary of!

1. Shanks

Even though Blackbeard was the one who injured Shanks' face before, he still felt wary of Shanks' strength.

It is based on the incident in chapter 580.

Previously, Blackbeard felt confident against Sengoku. He even said the Sengoku and Garp era had passed.

Then Shanks came to Marineford.

In chapter 580, Shanks asks both the pirates and Marines to stop fighting. If anyone still wants to continue, Shanks said he and his group are ready to serve them.

Shanks then spoke to Blackbeard, but Blackbeard (who had seemed confident against the Marines) decided to back down. According to Blackbeard, it's not yet time for him to face Shanks.

2. Sakazuki

Blackbeard feels wary of Sakazuki's power because of the situation in chapter 595.

When Van Augur said Akainu was on an approaching warship, Blackbeard fled. She said she wasn't ready for that.

3. Silvers Rayleigh

In chapter 1059, Blackbeard almost killed Boa Hancock.

Then suddenly Silvers Rayleigh came. Hancock also survived. Blackbeard and the Marines left Amazon Lily.

Blackbeard also felt shy about Rayleigh's strength.

Even though... Rayleigh personally felt that if he was in his old age against Blackbeard, he would not win.

4. Kuzan

One Piece chapter 1081 flashback tells the situation of how Kuzan was offered to be a member of the Blackbeard Pirates.

Kuzan got angry after hearing Laffitte whispering to Blackbeard to steal his powers. But Kurohige instead of fighting Kuzan, instead apologized and offered Kuzan to join his group.

This situation made Blackbeard feel wary of Kuzan's power.

So, those are the four One Piece characters whose strength Blackbeard feels wary of.
