Edward Weevil is a former Shichibukai and also a person who claims to be the biological son of Edward Newgate or Whitebeard. During the course of the story, Weevil is only seen a few times. There's still a lot of it that hasn't been revealed. This time, Dunia Games wants to discuss the facts about Edward Weevil that have been known so far in One Piece!

1. Claimed to be Whitebeard's Son

Oda never told whether Whitebeard was married or not, but Edward Weevil claimed to be Whitebeard's biological son from the first time he appeared. This is certainly not certain even though he has the same appearance and weapon as Whitebeard. What is clear is that Weevil is very tough.

2. His Mother Claimed to Have Set Sail Together with Whitebeard

Bakkin is the mother of Weevil who also claims to be Whitebeard's wife. About 40 years ago when he became a pirate, Bakkin claimed to be on the same ship as Whitebeard. If this is true, then she is a former Rocks Pirates' crew. This is because Whitebeard was still a Rocks' crew at that time.

3. His Purpose After Whitebeard's Death

Hearing Whitebeard's death, Weevil became very angry and wanted to take revenge on Teach for killing him. Meanwhile, his mother, Bakkin, had absolutely no interest in defeating the Blackbeard Pirates. Until now, the fight between Weevil and Teach has not been explained.

Not only the Blackbeard Pirates, but Weevil also hunted the rest of the Whitebeard Pirates' crew, especially Marco to retrieve all of Whitebeard's legacy. Whitebeard himself did have a lot of treasure, but Marco gave it all to the people in his hometown as Whitebeard ordered when he was still alive.

4. His Weapon

Just like Whitebeard, Weevil fights with a long spear. A reader asked the SBS One Piece volume 93 column about the name of Whitebeard's weapon. Oda replied that it was called Murakumogiri. It is a type of naginata which is one of the 12 highest-grade swords in the world (Saijo O Wazamono).

So strong, even this weapon is resistant to magma though. That's why Whitebeard was able to deal with Akainu's magma at Marineford. Even if Weevil uses the same weapon, it certainly cannot be as strong as Murakumogiri. Maybe later Weevil will retrieve the weapon at Whitebeard's grave.

5. A Different Views About Family

Unlike his father, Weevil has a different view of family. For Whitebeard, everyone who has a good relationship with him will be considered his family, for example, all of his crew are considered his own children. Things like that do not apply to Weevil.

For him, family only applies to those who are related by blood, not formed from friendship or anything else. This was why he attacked all the pirates who had an alliance with Whitebeard.

6. Respected Strength

From his appearance, Weevil might not seem that strong. But Kizaru acknowledged his strength and called him young Whitebeard. He was able to defeat 16 pirates who had an alliance with Whitebeard including A.O. without getting injured at all. This shows that he is one of the strongest among the Shichibukai.

7. His Weakness

Weevil has a strange body shape. His upper body is very large, while the lower part is just like a normal person. His weakness is that his legs are much smaller and they can't support the weight of his body. When Bakkin was angry with him, he would hit Weevil in the leg.

8. His Bounty

Edward Weevil has a bounty of 480 million Belly. This was the highest price of all known Shichibukai at the time. He was also the last Shichibukai to be introduced before being disbanded. Weevil doesn't seem to have met any of the other Shichibukai members.

9. The Marineford War

During the war at Marineford, all of the Shichibukai were present to help the Marines, except for Hancock who at that time sided with Luffy. Interestingly, at that time only Edward Weevil was absent. It could be that by then he had become a Shichibukai.

10. His Haki

It has been confirmed that Weevil is a user of Busoshoku and Kenbunshoku Haki. As a person who can join the Shichibukai, it is natural that he mastered Haki. The question is can he also use Haoshoku Haki like his father? If he is Whitebeard's biological son, it's not impossible if he can show it someday.
