Did Ace Survive...

[OP_overlord]

But that would mean certain death for Ace, unless BB wanted to keep Ace alive on purpose. I don't see why though.

BB might want to keep Ace alive so that he can use him as bait to find luffy instead of him searching for luffy luffy will search for him

saves his time for more training and gaining more control thus when luffy beats him luffy will get even stronger

That could be the case, but if BB sucked Ace into the blackhole, how would Luffy know about it? So far, I think that only the people from BB's crew know about his powers, since the people in the town would certainly be killed.

Unless... Luffy thought that BB had killed Ace, and wanted vengeance..

However, I think that's rather impossible as Luffy does not know where in the world BB is, and that they would have to follow the direction of the logpass thing.

firstly does luffy even know who BB really is??

 

[gao_dargon]

hahaha you know now that u mention it, i dont think luffy knows how bb is, but he wont care for that matter, he will only care for his brother (if what i said earlier were to be true), he will just get surprised and say somethin like *oo u r the one of the food fith right??? sugoooi* pointing at him and with his jaw on the floor then someone of the crew would tell him *he is the one that beat/killed/captured ace remember?* and he will be like *o true* and strart fighting

Who said Luffy does not know whos BB?

They meet in the tavern eating Pie....remember?

I still find it hard to believe only because nobody that is a major character really dies in One Piece for some reason because they seem to always be alive again at some point. The only people I'm sure that was shown dead would be from all the flashbacks. So even to see everyone from like something like CP9 all to survive all the way to a good guy character like Ace where I haven't noticed any good guys die yet (aside from the flashbacks) still makes me hard to believe he died only because of that reason.

Of cource Ase is still alive. Oda never let anyone die.
Think about the guardian of Alabasta, the bird man that saved Alabasta from the bomb. Not even he died, man... so come on, how can you think Ace's dead?!
And actually noone dies in One Piece. Even the bad guys live on and a taken from the government (Eneru left the planet though)
Ace lost that match, I believe. Not that I doubt his monstrous powers and his will, but if Blackbeard was to die, that just would have been nonsense. Why should he die?
If he died, then why did Oda even bother to create him. He hasn't done anything yet, but something's gonna happen, that's for sure.
They say Whitebeard is the nearest to become the Pirate King. But maybe Luffy and Blackbeard are the ones from the new age, who're going to fight for that title in the end.
And Luffy now has a reason to fight him too... It's going to be interesting.

Ps. Sorry Chidoki ... didn't see your post...

I think they're meaning who BlackBeard really is, not who he is. As in, not whether they know him or not, but in the aspect of whether they know how powerful he is and that he's looking for him.

 

[Absolutio]

luffy knows blackbeard, he just doesnt know that he's blackbeard and thats he's after him..

If he did in fact die then Blackbeard would have no reason to go after Luffy, for he would give Ace's hat to the WG and be accepted into the Shikibukai, as Ace most likely has a higher bounty than Luffy. They will however, eventually, meaning a fairly long time from the current storyline, incounter one another and of coarse Blackbeard will boast about killing Ace, and Luffy will go apeshit.

If he died, then why did Oda even bother to create him. He hasn't done anything yet, but something's gonna happen, that's for sure.

If he does die; like the manga states: "The two's battle would be spoken of -- as a 'trigger' for a great incedent that would later occur ." That 'great incedent' would be said ass beating of Blackbeard at the hands of Luffy.

That being said, I believe Ace is still alive, he will just seem dead, until the Luffy - Blackbeard fight.

 

[Tailsnake]

Ace has a bounty of 400 Million, it was stated that the two brothers together were worth 700 Million.

 

[sahugani]

that was a fake spoiler from a little while back

 

[zelllogan]

totally agree....

his part IS big indeed: his death shall be the trigger for a global war

about aokiji: BB can beat him easily....ener also can...

come one BB maybe but ener is a wimp. The only thing he have is his fruit, remember what luffy said : "there is hundreds of mans who can beat you in the blue sea". Ans aokiji is definitively one of them

 

[Pimpolho]

I don´t think he died. He probily is traped in BB´s body.
BB´s Because of that can´t prove he killed him and can´t release him because it will be danger.

But if he died it will be really the biggest event that Oda made untill now. Because he thought that it was necessary change his way of not killing.

 

[OP_overlord]

he is not dead just trapped and being used as bait to get to luffy the state that he is in idk but it cant be good

 

[venicia777]

i think he isnt dead like all of you ace fans. His hat didnt get incinerated-- if it did i would have bet he was gone for good. But to me that means a part of him is still remaining-- to be explored later.

Long Live Luffys Eternal Ally-- Portgas D Ace

 

[deathshadow25]

I think he might be in another dimension and when MArshall uses hi ability against Luffy ,Ace will shoot out

 

[War]

I think he might be in another dimension and when MArshall uses hi ability against Luffy ,Ace will shoot out

But wouldn't Ace be squished to pieces like the town was? O.o

 

[venicia777]

yeah-- that is a possibility- because i dont know if he squishes only solid matter. and if he does whether Ace will be able to access his ability inside of him.
