20 Years Later, Blackbeard & Shanks’ Groundbreaking Fight Is More Mysterious Than Ever

The potential clash between Shanks and Blackbeard was first hinted at back in 2006, in chapter 434 of One Piece, and fans have been anticipating it ever since. After twenty years, the series still hasn’t revealed much about what happened. Although Shanks’ conversation with Whitebeard in that chapter now seems more meaningful as the story reaches its climax, the specifics of the encounter remain a mystery.
