It's Shanks. Anyway, I'm not really expecting him to fight against Blackbeard, myself (a least, not now, anyway). Y'see, I pretty much took his line about "ending the war" to mean that he came to take the remaining Whitebeard pirates and high-tail it out of Marineford (so his crew would keep the admirals busy until then). As Coby said, further conflict would be pointless since the marines already realized their goal..... |

The scars date at least 10 years ago (he had them when he made his bet on the New Generation; Luffy) and we don't know if it was an equal fight, if Blackbeard owned Shanks (as you said) or if Shanks beat Blackbeard within an inch of his life etc (nor how strong Shanks was at the time, if he was a Yonkou or a rockie Pirate Captain etc). What we do know is that something with Blackbeard uneased Shanks, but whether it was his fighting strength, his potential fighting strength, his ambition, that Shanks sensed that Blackbeard was a man of many layers or something connected to his "unique body" (etc) we cannot say.

Damn! This war just gets more epic with every chapter. Shanks, Blackbeard vs Sengoku and Garp (maybe we'll see some good teamwork from those two), Coby trying to reason with the Marines, Ben going for the headshot on Kizaru (doubt it will take, but it's still cool).

After holding of the admirals (and the rest) and helping WB crew+allies escape, they would be in pretty much in the same seat as the WB pirates were in. Granted, Shanks and his mates are very likely in a better shape to succesfully escape from the three admirals, I still think Shanks has some other thought. Or at least not that it will be the extent of his visit there... |

If Blackbeard succeed in killing the old generation (Garp and Sengoku), then the scenario with Akainu becoming the Fleet Admiral will get more fuel.
The Marine under Akainu will become the beacon of dark justice, and that might result into a faction of sane mariners to split and establish their own organization that will carry their good justice and oppose the WG. Shichibukai will be disbanded and replaced with an army of Pacifista, forcing the shichibukai to maybe form a new faction to defend them selves or make an alliance with the rest of Yonko plus NW pirates. Not to forget the force that is trying to twist the world to its liking (blackbeard) If that happens, its gonna be an interesting and dark world Akainu atrocities in the name of justice alone are enough to freeze the blood of the babies before they are born in fear of him |

Y'know, the funny thing about this is the fact that Shanks had actually offered Marco to join his crew during his meeting with Whitebeard. I suppose he may have to take him up on that offer now that pops is gone..... |
