Hey guys, check this:
We all know Oda likes to base his characters in OP on things he likes/real life ppl and events
a good example is Whitebeard/Marshall D Teach and Thatch
all were based on the REAL LIFE ''Edward Teach'' [also known as Edward Thatch] aka the notorious Blackbeard the Pirate:
Funnily enough that epic beard seems to have been added to Teach's character design in OP:
Anyway back to my point, another character who was introduced is also based on a historic figure:
''Maynard the Pursuer''
A vice-admiral who had his ass handed to him by Bartolomeo in the current arc
So whats so special about this fodder vice admiral? who Oda thought fit to name a WHOLE chapter after [Chapter: 705]
Maynard is based on a man called:
Captain Robert Maynard
A man famous for killing a notorious pirate
Edward Thatch
aka Blackbeard
I know, i know, but let me finish before you think I lost my mind.
we all know Oda has a skill in bringing back characters in his story who we over look
And he named a chapter after this Vice Admiral, who was smacked up OFF PANEL
Do you think like the real life Maynard that he has a role to play in the future of Blackbeard?
Maybe after Luffy and the SH beats BB, Maynard comes in and takes the final blow as a marine?
what do you guys think?
