User blog comment:Pandawarrior/What if Luffy and the SHs had joined the Whitebeard Pirates?/@comment-3435506-20111201002501/@comment-3435506-20111201003405

Teach said he was looking for luffy anyways so the war might not have happened at all because he know not to f**k with WB, he might have learned the gears through some other incedent but 2 years ago the only way he could activate haki was through his loved ones being hurt so i dont know how that would play out.
