Blackbeard vs Luffy will be a team fight

[Warmmedown]

Do you think this could be the first team fight of One Piece? Rather than Luffy vs BB one vs one, I think BB will elect to take on Luffy with his crew supporting him. Because BB doesn't fight one vs one. Instead of everyone fighting separately like in other arcs, the SHs will try to stop BB's crewmates from interfering in the fight. It also matches Luffy's idea that he needs a crew and can't be pirate king alone.

Maybe. His crew still seem weak though, at least in terms of being a challenge to Luffy.

I think it’s gonna be a traditional crew fight.
