About
Edward Newgate, known as Whitebeard, was the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates and one of the Four Emperors who ruled the New World. Feared across the seas and respected as a rival of Gol D. Roger, he was widely known as the strongest man in the world, with a power so great that his name alone made the Marines tremble.
Yet Whitebeard's true strength was his family. He called every pirate under his flag his son and treated them with deep love and loyalty. When his son Ace was sentenced to death, he declared war on the World Government at Marineford, a stand that ended his life but burned his legacy into history as a father who never abandoned his sons.
Abilities
Gura Gura no Mi
The Tremor-Tremor Fruit, the strongest Paramecia: it creates earthquakes and shockwaves that can crack the air and even the sea itself.
Conqueror's Haki
A rare royal Haki that overpowers the will of others, letting him cause damage on his own and fight on equal terms with the greatest powers.
Armament Haki
Hardens his fists and weapon, so his quake-infused attacks hit with full force against foes who can guard against Devil Fruits.
Murakumogiri
His massive naginata, a weapon that matches his own strength and carries his power in every sweeping strike.
Air Quakes
He punches the air itself and splits it open, sending shockwaves that can shatter islands and shake the entire world.
Father Figure

Notable battles
Whitebeard's final stand came at Marineford, where he and his allies fought the Marines to save Ace. Against Admiral Akainu and the Navy's strongest forces, he continued to fight even after suffering fatal wounds, refusing to fall in defeat. His rivalry with Roger's crew, his war against Blackbeard's betrayal, and his last words about the One Piece all shaped the era that followed him.
