Talk:Squard

Are we allowed to say anything now that the spoilers are confirmed? Or not? Let me know so I can get on the all and start making some new content.

No, not until the chapter officially comes out. Yatanogarasu 15:30, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Chapter is out. However despite early spoilers, its not stated outright in the chapter that Squardo is a spy for the WG. In fact, the scene seems really suspicious, as if "someone" is pulling the strings. For now just state that Squardo attacked Whitebeard.Mugiwara Franky 09:11, October 29, 2009 (UTC)

That was a fake spoiler. Welcome to the world of mythbusters and why we have that page... One-Winged Hawk 10:30, October 29, 2009 (UTC)

So is it officially Squad now and not Squardo? Also, should we put that he is the first of Whitebeard's allies seen addressing him as a father like the regular crew? If you remember, the Decalvan Brothers only called him boss.--DancePowderer 21:58, October 29, 2009 (UTC)

Catching Whitebeard off guard?

"He is skilled enough to catch Whitebeard off-guard enough to stab him through the chest upfront."

How is this anything but speculation? We have no idea that he has skills enough to catch someone like Whitebeard off guard. Squad was standing right in front of him pledging his loyalty to Whitebeard. There's no way even he would have expected Squad to attack him. I doubt it shows any kind of unique ability to Squad himself to stab Whitebeard while merely taking his attention off of it. Subrosian 00:00, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

Whitebeard didn't expect the attack, the Squad just attacked. That's off guard to me. Yatanogarasu 17:05, October 29, 2009 (UTC)

True, but it doesn't make him "skilled" at anything. It really only makes him clever--or in better terms, an opportunist. Subrosian 00:06, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

I think we should wait until the motive is revealed before making any judgements. There are still a lot of things that have not been revealed about that stabbing and they could determine whether or not Squad is "skilled" or not.--DancePowderer 00:18, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

Indeed, anyone given the chance at such a range can do such a thing. Kinda like how CP9 completely took Galley-La off guard. In fact due to one single panel that looks away from Squad and Whitebeard, its not exactly clear if Whitebeard saw the attack coming at the last second. There's also the reason behind Squad's attack. Whether its his own doing or Doflamingo screwing around, may determine what just happened.Mugiwara Franky 00:22, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

Well, I took it off for the time being. It's all speculation at this point like I said at the beginning. Subrosian 00:23, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

Look at Whitebeard's face during the attack. He was not surprised at all. Drunk Samurai 05:42, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, the very second he's stabbed, he's not surprised. The next panel showing his eyes on the other hand...The Pope 06:09, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

I think that expression shows more shock at being attacked by a guy he thought was one of his allies. Subrosian 06:10, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

Doflamingo

Maybe Doflamingo took control of him and used him to the enemy's advantage.

This is what we call Fan Speculation. Subrosian 03:09, October 31, 2009 (UTC)

Why "Squad"?

I am Japanese. We pronounce Squad "Sukuwaddo", not "Sukuādo". I think "Squardo" or "Squard" is better.

I'm not getting involved with THIS argument... I'm sick of names right now. But please can you sign your responses with ~~~~ as its considered good manners. One-Winged Hawk 08:20, October 31, 2009 (UTC)

Sorry.--Klobis 13:22, October 31, 2009 (UTC)
