[One Piece] Whitebeard Could Have Reached Laugh Tale — So Why Didn’t He?

Edward Newgate / Whitebeard

Edward Newgate (Whitebeard) | 2025 — If He Had the Power, Why Did He Never Go to Laugh Tale?

Whitebeard was strong enough.
He knew Roger, the truth of the world, and the era before the Great Pirate Age.
So why did a man like him never aim for Laugh Tale?

  • Power vs. Purpose
  • Did Whitebeard Already Have His “One Piece”?
  • Can Anyone Even Reach Laugh Tale?

Power vs. Purpose

5:Anonymous Pirate
Not interested and he’s not a D.

11:Anonymous Pirate
Because he already had the One Piece.

13:Anonymous Pirate
Family = One Piece.

14:Anonymous Pirate
He wasn’t interested.

18:Anonymous Pirate
Actually Marco already went there with “Sky Fly.”


Did Whitebeard Already Have His “One Piece”?

20:Anonymous Pirate
He couldn’t complete the poneglyphs; he couldn’t read ancient text.

41Anonymous Pirate
If you think normally, it means you need something other than strength or some ability.

42Anonymous Pirate
The number two of the Pirate King is weakened yet even with an Admiral he’s even… Yooi no Yoi… lol

44:Anonymous Pirate
You can’t take the King right away, you know (Marco’s catchphrase).

45:Anonymous Pirate
Not every pirate of the old age was aiming for Laugh Tale. Those who went to sea after Roger was executed had different goals.

46:Anonymous Pirate
Pretty seriously, Whitebeard was a one-man team. At his peak if he caused vibrations on the enemy’s ship it would sink instantly.


Can Anyone Even Reach Laugh Tale?

51:Anonymous Pirate
Because Laugh Tale needs the life of a D, that’s why Roger died. Whitebeard was trying to make Ace the Pirate King.
Shanks, who isn’t a D, is using and helping Luffy to aim for Laugh Tale.

53Anonymous Pirate
You guys love the Whitebeard Pirates, right?
I love them too, Old Man.

61:Anonymous Pirate
Anyone can normally go to Laugh Tale.

70Anonymous Pirate

Because there are Sea Kings…

79:Anonymous Pirate

Just walk through the mountains, descend the other side and build a ship, then it’s the goal.

309:Anonymous Pirate

Are you the kind of guy who would storm the dragon king’s castle right next to the first village in an RPG at level 5?

85:Anonymous Pirate
>>61
The location of Laugh Tale hasn’t been determined.

91:Anonymous Pirate

When I reread it recently, Crocus actually said Laugh Tale is beyond the Log Pose.
Are you saying Crocus is lying?

87:Anonymous Pirate
Not the other side but the closer side. There’s a black hole above the Red Line and Laugh Tale, so you can’t enter from any route other than the designated one…

90Anonymous Pirate
If you have family, that’s enough.


👉Whitebeard Already Had His One Piece

This thread never argues that Whitebeard couldn’t reach Laugh Tale. The dominant idea is that he simply didn’t need to. For him, family already filled the role the treasure plays for others.

👉Strength Was Never the Goal

Strength, routes, D-bloodlines, ancient text — all of that matters. But the comments circle back to one thing: Whitebeard wasn’t chasing history. He was protecting what he already chose.
