Hmm, interesting question there. I have played with the thought of Chris being told stories of Luffy, and so maybe that's how Chris knows of Luffy. But I kind of doubt he'd be too concerned about Blackbeard, since Chris knows little to nothing about the man, and only knows as much about Luffy as Shanks probably does. So if that were to happen, I think Chris would have faith that a friend of Shanks' could hold his own (assuming Blackbeard is weak, which he really isn't. But Chris doesn't know that.) If Blackbeard went for Shanks directly though, that presents a problem for me, since I know Chris would want to support his teacher and friend, and yet at the same time, I can't have him interefere with One Piece's story.

I'm sure that if I give it enough thought and time, I'll find a way out of the situation. If not, then I have to probably find a safer way to have Chris learn to use Haki over the time skip.
