I think thats highly improbable, there are two untouchables in one peices hero charracters, one is their lives two is their spirit for adventure, so I guess ace is still alive, eventhough hurt, but the important thing about ace's fight is the political side to it, oda made a note at the end of the chapter where ace and black beard went head on that that event was the beggining of more events to come, so like a chain reaction, my guess is, white beard saw that one of his commanders couldnt handle teach so he takes it on himself to teach teach a lesson, becuase whitebeards is really stubborn about this issue he will do whatever is needed and this time it seems that him taking teach on is whats needed, eventhough he is very proud this topic is very sensetive for him, and I think this is where he will fall, I think one of the four emperors gone is something with a major impact on the power balance of the world, and in the middle of all this teach wants luffy which will get the strawhats os this whole mess with the worlds most powerful men in the sea, where the showdown will be the new world.
that actually sounds right, you see oinstead of going after luffy who is really famous now, ace is almost as good for the world government, after BB beat Ace he'll become quite famous and thenhe might be able to get into the shichibukai, which will give him more power men and funds, he might actually go against the whitebears, which would please the world government very much.
I am glad someone thinks the same as me. But Ace was after BB (what WB, he has some account to make with BB). But Ace is a weapon that the world governement and the shichibukai can use. Instead of going after luffy and the yonkau, BB can get in the shichibukai using ace. why? well luffy and wb won't accept ace being emprisoned by the world governement. I think that's why shanks told wb to get ace back
well BB using his win over ace to make him famous and become one of the shichibukai seems right to me, but the other stuff is still speculation, you do make a good argument though, but wether ace is captured or escape, or when and who blackbeard will fight first, whitebeard orluffy, I would think whitebeard but you still cant tell the it still is a bit early, good predictions though.
I really cant see a WB straw hat alliance, I can see too many signs of WB death, but Ace will survive on, and will ofcourse be an ally of his own brother, thats what I think.
And what about a strawhet and shanks alliance? Maybe it will be determined for luffy to enter the yonkai soon or later
Well I don't see any reasons when ace is defeated by BB to kill him off. Ace probably didn't die but I don't think he won against BB, he survived but he'll be probably hand over to the world governement. So there's indeed no need to fight him, just jailing him will be fine
) to do it. Although WB wont do it willingly - he's got his pride.
