The Lucci thing is fine. It would make some sense, but Spandam would be completely against it. For the second thing, the Whitebeard Pirates, even w/o Newgate and Ace, would not fall to the Blackbeard Pirates. And Marco is not weak enough to be overpowered and manipulated so easily. I dont see any reason that they would want a zoan, and why Marco? It seems a bit like a pipe dream. I know Teach took out Bonney relatively easily, but Marco is by far stronger. And he wouldnt need Yonkou protection. Even if he did, he and his crew would follow Shanks.
