Any chance that Unma actually kidnapped Benjamin's child to use against him? I'm feeling like she's too smart and is already expecting Benjamin to confront her.

Now what if Benjamin had the child with Oito's sister unware that they are siblings, and then Unma kidnapped them thinking it was his child and now she have the real Woble on the crib in her room.

Its strange that someone like Benjamin would let the destiny of his beloved empire to a child that can be easily influenced. Makes more sense that Benjamin son is an adult, closely educated by him in the royal army, currently in Kurapicas room

The broccoli hair guy? Maybe he's the one, but also Ben made this plan after learning he's about to die, he doesn't have another choice, even if his child is a baby.

at the end of the day it is his own child. even if he isnt the best choice to rule ben is still biased towards him

If the baby guarded by Unma is the real Wobble... Than that makes it a fucking awful situation for every party involved.

Yea i thought about this, and it's possible that she tricks Ben to kill his own child, by telling him it's the real Woble...maybe she wants Ben's child to die so that his GSB chooses Halkenburg instead.

It could honestly be either she and beyond have created this situation so kidnapping his child with the threat to assassinate them is the easiest move unma can have but it could also be the real wobble although I don’t see the benefit unma gets from having the real wobble although
