Warning: One Piece Theorymoning:
I don't see how he would have eaten the Cerberus fruit and not use it to defend himself from certain death like against WB for example. I think his utter fascination with the Yami Yami no mi (to the point gambling his whole entire life on the chance of getting it by staying on WB's ship till he was what, 40?) is its inherent ability to not only shut down the DF of others but by controlling the DFs within your own body so for example activating only one at a time or more than one but in different body parts/hands.
So BBs plan had to start with the Yami Yami no mi. Now BB has publicly stated and shown in battle the one glaring flaw of this fruit, his inability to absorb hits and him needing to tank it with his awesome defense/hp stat. Mihawk would eat him for breakfast, dinner and lunch if he had one sole fruit and WB almost had him. He needs something to deal with Weapon users and keep enemies at distance should they avoid the Yami Yami no mi.
So why doesn't BB go Sylar and eat every fruit he can get his hands on and only activate the ones he needs for battle? BB has other mouths to feed (Burgess, etc.) and going with the Cerberus theory, each head should be equal in strength. The Quake fruit is excellent at keeping foes away and even dealing with awesome power nearby such as him dealing with Sengokus Blast.
So yes either the Cerberus is just a favorite design for BB, or him acquiring the strongest devil fruit/logia (Stated many times), strongest paramecia (Stated many times) means he is going to gun for the strongest Zoan with Kaido being the strongest "creature" alive.
==================
So Aldaron brought the subject of CP0 so these are the parties on Dressrosa so far:
Straw Hat + Heart Pirate alliance: Objective achieved?
Don Flamingo: (almost) Ded?
Revolutionaries: Acquired Mera Mera no mi (objective achieved)
Black Beard Pirates: Lost Mera Mera no mi
Marines: Monitor situation, assist Shichibukai, but Doffy attacked marines and Fujitora hates him, so situation unknown?
CP0: Presumably here to support Doffy, real objective unknown
Kaido: Pissed off
Either Blackbeard has eaten the Cerberus fruit first (which could give it the power to hold up to three devil fruits at the same time - so Cerberus, Yami, Gura Gura), he's going for Marco's Phoenix (I mean, can you think of a more powerful Zoan?), or the cerberus jolly roger means nothing and he'll stop at two fruits.
