About

Blackbeard is the Admiral of the Blackbeard Pirates and currently one of the Four Emperors. He was once a member of the Whitebeard Pirates and later a Warlord. He murdered his crewmate Thatch to steal the Yami Yami no Mi, then took Whitebeard's Gura Gura no Mi after his death at Marineford — becoming the only known person to wield two Devil Fruit powers.
