Rocks being Blackbeard's father was pretty well foreshadowed: His ship is literally called the Saber of Xebec and only a handful of people in the world know about or care about Rocks, it was basically a given.
It makes his betrayal of Whitebeard even more brutal. We also don't know the full extent of Rocks' relationship with his son and it looks like Blackbeard was possibly just an orphan.
We also see Blackbeard following in the footsteps of rocks: recruiting powerful and dangerous pirates who swear allegiance to him not out of love (like the strawhats) but out of mutual interests and a desire to see Blackbeard's era out.
It really raises more questions about Blackbeard's origins: how did he learn about Rocks? what lead him to join Whitebeard?
It's all so intriguing and probably one of those Oda reveals that recontextualize the entire series and you can never read it the same again (what happened to me after the kuma flashback).
It's so impressive how many times Oda has done that across all of One Piece, like I've literally re-read huge chunks of the series because of massive lore drops
