Marco stated that the main reason the Whitebeard Pirates held such strong loyalty to their captain was due to Newgate's paternal-like attitude, deeply caring for them like a father. ĭespite his fierce reputation, Whitebeard was a compassionate man, having adopted countless people of different backgrounds into his crew as his foster children, such as Squard, whose life was devastated by Roger killing his crew, or Teach, who requested to join his crew due to being homeless. Yet another belief he held is that any path a man wished to follow in life was fine by him, as long as they did not regret it. Roger, Whitebeard believed that a child should not be responsible for their parents' sins. Because of this, he was not afraid of sacrificing himself for the safety of those he considered his children. He knew that the youth were the keys to the future, and that their lives were far more important than his own. Though he may seemed to have an overgrown ego, Whitebeard knew deep down that he was nothing but a single man and was fully aware of his own mortality. Whitebeard's response to his status as the "Strongest Man in the World". I am only one man with one heart.Call me a demon, call me a monster.but I can't be the strongest forever.!!! Actions that initially seemed to be the result of thoughtless, headstrong bravado actually had strong reasons behind them his loud declaration that Fish-Man Island belonged to him freed the island from all pirates and slavery, and his insistence that Blackbeard be punished was merely a cover for Ace, who had set out after him against Whitebeard's wishes.
However, he was much more thoughtful than he initially appeared to be. In initial appearances, he seemed unable to see any cause for alarm on any decision he made and refused all advice given to him, such as his nurse telling him not to drink heavily or Shanks warning him of Blackbeard. His reign on the sea, reputation, and foreboding power made him seemingly overconfident and fearless. He was not ashamed of this wish, which was considered strange and humorous among his pirate peers. Due to being an orphan who grew up in poverty, Newgate had a strong desire for a family, which he saw as the greatest treasure one could have. Gallery MainĮdward Newgate was a cheerful and carefree person during his younger years, prior to commanding his own ship and becoming known as Whitebeard. He had bandaged scrapes and cuts from his fights. He also wore shorts and a white bandanna.
Īs a child, he wore a light colored sleeveless shirt with the word "Power" (力 Chikara) written on it. However, for the entire 72 years that he lived, he had never once received a wound on his back because he never ran away from his battles. In the manga, after Akainu melted off a portion of his head, Whitebeard lost his left eye and the left side of his mustache (this was changed to just losing the left side of his mustache in the anime) as well as a massive hole in his torso (a second, bigger hole in the stomach was also dealt by Akainu in the anime). While not in battle, Whitebeard was typically on oxygen and attached to several medical sensor machines, due to health issues concerning his age. He was always seen bare-chested, and wore light, loose pants tucked inside his large black boots, and a dark pirate sash around his waist. He wore a black bandanna around his head and adorned himself with a white captain's coat, which hung loosely from his broad shoulders and bore his Jolly Roger symbol. In the manga, his eyes are brown, but in the anime, his eye color is seen to be yellow. Like all of his men, he had his own Jolly Roger tattooed on his back. The muscles on his biceps seemed to grow bigger whenever he used his quake-based powers. He had a long face, ploughed because of the advanced age with many wrinkles around his eyes, and many scars running along his chest, and was very muscular. Unlike other large-sized humans, however, he was well-proportioned. Whitebeard was an abnormally large man, with a height of 666 cm (21'10"). When he was 52, he wore a white and yellow pirate hat with his jolly roger on it over a black bandana with black and red, both worn over long, blond flowing hair he had back then. Later in his life, he grew the prominent crescent-shaped mustache, which would spawn his epithet, "Whitebeard".
In his younger days, he wore an open dark gray vest and a black bandanna, and his trademark mustache was nonexistent.
