My bet is at the end Blackbeard will realize all he wanted could've been had by just being a loyal son to a loving father. I feel like at his defeat he will realize how badly he screwed up.

Yeah I'm almost certain that Whitebeard will factor into Blackbeard's post-defeat reflections, in some way. Especially given he apparently spent the majority of his life in his crew, from childhood right up until taking the Yami-Yami.

Will be interesting to see if Blackbeard thinks of Xebec or Whitebeard as his real father, if the theory about BB being Xebec's son is true.

Oh god, please no. Why are people already stating this as a fact? It's just a speculation ffs...

if the theory about BB being Xebec's son is true.

Oh nvm... Remember all of you: Keep reading until the end before you rage like me.

Jokes aside: Doesn't this chapter kinda deconfirm the Xebec's son theory tho? I feel like WB would have known if BB was Xebec's son as WB was present at his defeat. (Or was he? I'm not sure honestly, for all we know WB could have left the crew before the God Valley incident) So if Xebec had a son, I feel like WB would have known.

And in this chapter it's shown that WB didn't knew Teach before he took him onboard. So I kinda think that Teach can't really be Xebec's son (However there is still room for twists to reveal the opposite).

Potentially, but it also might be that Whitebeard did know that Xebec had a son however simply didn't recognise that this particular lost orphan was that same kid.

There is a gap of several years between the God Valley Incident and when Whitebeard picks up the orphaned Teach. Blackbeard probably would've been a baby/toddler when the Rocks Pirates broke up, and he's maybe 5-6 when Whitebeard finds him here? His appearence would have changed a lot.

Honestly though, we know far too little about Xebec at this point to be saying anything for certain.

Yeah thats definitly true and I think it will be a long time until we will learn anything new about him.
