    I hadnt quite considered the possibility of capture, same as how I didn’t consider the possibility of Garp potentially losing. I mean his displays of power and speed. Especially being able to respond to a guy who can freeze an expanse of ocean near instantly is a huge display. I mean Garp was frozen, broke out of the ice and still managed to catch Kuzan. So you can see how I didn’t really think he could lose- obviously I wasn’t 100% on it though. But I don’t see why one would not kill a heavy hitter like Garp given the chance. I’m not too sure of motive but One Piece characters sometimes don’t follow tropes and will act in realistic fashion. To me it would be silly to let any of Sword leave alive. What kind of leverage is Garp for Blackbeard? I don’t know of anything he could gain from the World Government he hasn’t attempted already with trading for Bonney. So considering the fact that the Navy sets traps at parley, I would try to take out as many threats as possible.

    As a very casual OP reader (not much time spent on speculation and theories), how do you factor in Garp being offered to the WG by Blackbeard as a holder of D.'s will now that Bibi saw what she saw?

      Hmm… I hadn’t considered that either. Can I take your words as such? In anticipation of the reveal of “the empty throne”, the WG could begin something like a witch-hunt of all the Ds. Its a really interesting development should this happen. Like a possibility of cleansing the ranks of the Navy of all the Ds in a very gut reaction type of way out of fear of the future developments (possible treason in the Navy and uprisings in the kingdoms who go to Reverie). This witch-hunt could invalidate the bargaining power of Blackbeard since he has the D moniker as well, this decision by Blackbeard could still lead to a parley trap with Akainu again. I appreciate this idea. My friend and I love talking and guessing all the ways events could unfold, and this could be pretty dope development.
