Braised Double Fish

Chapter 126 The Death of Marshall D. Teach

The third Zoan-type Devil Fruit was directly stuffed into Teach's mouth.

The moment it was shoved into his mouth, Teach completely lost the ability to struggle. It was all over...

His ambition, his dreams, all turned to smoke with the three fruits entering his belly.

Sakazuki released the stunned Teach and threw him to the ground.

"As expected, he could eat three."

Looking at the motionless Teach, Sakazuki raised his right foot.

*Crack—*

A bone-cracking sound echoed, and Teach was kicked flying, smashing into the ship's cabin.

Sakazuki's indifferent voice followed:

"Come on, transform and let me see."

The intense pain brought Teach back to his senses, and his eyes instantly turned blood red.

Rage shattered his reason. Damnable! Aaaahhhh!!!!!

Amidst his frenzied howls, the animal features of a horse, a sheep, and a rat kept appearing on his body.

A monster with horse legs, a sheep's head, and rat claws charged towards Sakazuki.

Looking at the monster that burst out of the cabin.

Carrot and Enel were both surprised. He ate three and not only didn't explode, but could also use the abilities simultaneously...

Sakazuki extended his index finger. The verification was complete, and it was useless.

*Bang—*

He directly blew up Marshall D. Teach's sheep head, turning it into a cloud of bloody mist.

The headless body fell onto the deck, motionless.

There was no luck or fate to save him; he died as dead as one could be.

Even if he had been fed the Glint-Glint Fruit just now, he wouldn't have escaped. That's just how it is, simple.

The horse legs and rat claws slowly reverted to human form.

Sakazuki walked forward, grabbed the headless corpse:

"Let's go."

Then he casually tossed a magma bomb.

Three whooshing sounds echoed, and within two breaths, they were back on the approaching Marine warship.

*Boom—*

As soon as they landed, the magma bomb from the pirate ship behind them exploded.

It engulfed the pirate ship and sank to the seabed.

Sakazuki threw down the corpse of Marshall D. Teach in his hand:

"Find a freezer and freeze it."

"Change course, head to Punk Hazard."

-------------------

Several days later.

The Marine warship had just sailed into Punk Hazard.

Before it could even dock properly, they saw Vegapunk leading a group of scientists, all eagerly awaiting their arrival.

Nearby, several newly added government CP organization guards were present.

Enel, leading Roscinante, jumped off:

"Teacher!"

Vegapunk smiled:

"Enel."

Enel pulled Roscinante over to introduce him to Vegapunk.

After hearing the introduction, Vegapunk became somewhat interested in Roscinante's Silence-Silence Fruit.

But the most important thing was that other matter...

Seeing the warship dock steadily, Vegapunk eagerly looked towards Sakazuki, who was disembarking.

Sakazuki walked down and greeted him:

"Mr. Vegapunk."

Vegapunk smiled:

"Vice Admiral Sakazuki."

He then looked towards the freezer being carried by two soldiers behind Sakazuki.

Sakazuki waved his hand.

The soldiers behind him carried the freezer to the front of everyone.

A group of scientists, forgetting their decorum, leaned over the freezer, eager to see any differences.

Vegapunk also took an impatient glance.

He found nothing. It seemed they would need to extract tissue for testing.

Turning to Sakazuki:

"Vice Admiral Sakazuki, is this the dual Devil Fruit user you mentioned?"

Sakazuki nodded:

"Correct."

"At that time, this pirate transformed into a human-beast form."

"He had a sheep's head, and his limbs turned into hooves."

"But his strength was too weak, and I killed him with one move."

"Later, I thought something was wrong."

"Those weren't sheep hooves."

"I interrogated the other pirates."

"Only then did a pirate who was close to him reveal the truth."

"This brat actually ate two Zoan-type Devil Fruits."

"One was the Sheep-Sheep Fruit, and the other was the Horse-Horse Fruit."

"I figured you would like this kind of material, so I brought it over."

Vegapunk became somewhat excited upon hearing Sakazuki say it himself:

"If this is true,"

"His value would be immeasurable."

"Thank you, Vice Admiral Sakazuki."

"Please rest for a while."

"I'll go for an initial examination."

"We can talk more when I get back."

Sakazuki smiled and nodded.

A group of scientists, along with CP members, carried the freezer and rushed towards Laboratory No. 1.

The port was instantly left with only Marine soldiers.

Enel's face immediately fell; he had been neglected...

Sakazuki walked up from behind and patted the back of Enel's head:

"Let's go, let's eat first."

"If you're not hungry, you can take Roscinante around for a tour."

"The scenery here is quite nice."

Enel looked up, his spirits revived, and pulled Roscinante along:

"Come on, I'll show you the young creatures Teacher is raising."

He then rushed towards Laboratory No. 1.

--------------------

Holy Land, Marie Geoise.

Inside a grand castle palace.

The CP member who had been reporting was dismissed.

The Gorosei wielding a sword put down his teacup:

"What do you think about this matter?"

The burly Gorosei leaned back on the sofa:

"We'll wait for the results."

"Whether he's a dual Devil Fruit user will be clear with a simple investigation."

The slender Gorosei nodded:

"Indeed."

"As for the identity of that brat, it's also been found."

"Marshall D. Teach."

"He has a deceased mother and two younger sisters, whose whereabouts are unknown."

"When he was young, he and his two sisters went missing for several years."

"His first appearance was on Captain Randy's pirate ship."

"He likely boarded about a year ago."

"And then he encountered Sakazuki."

"Even with all our efforts, this is all we could find."

The Gorosei holding a cane snorted coldly:

"Another D."

"Those damned guys, have they developed something?"

The Gorosei with the sword said:

"It doesn't matter, it's just paving the way for us."

"Let Vegapunk try to crack it."

"There's also another matter."

"The issue with Flevance is likely to erupt."

"People have already started falling ill."

The Gorosei holding the cane said:

"Is that so?"

"It's been over a hundred years; by calculation, it's about time."

The slender Gorosei said:

"The truth cannot be revealed to the public, or the government's prestige will be shattered."

"First, send people to gradually infiltrate and seal off the area."

"At the same time, get the surrounding countries to cooperate in the blockade."

"Moreover, there's still a branch of the D. clan living there incognito."

"If necessary, purge them directly."

"Agreed."

"Agreed."

"Agreed."...

North Blue.

Flevance, the "White Town."

It was named so because the ground and trees were as immaculate white as in a fairy tale kingdom, like a world of ice and snow.

It was as beautiful as a fairy land.

Within Flevance, in the largest hospital.

A woman with a bulging belly, carrying a lunchbox, walked towards a particular consulting room.

*Knock, knock, knock—*

After knocking, a mature male voice came from inside:

"Come in."

She pushed the door open.

A male doctor wearing glasses, exuding maturity and heroism, was writing intensely, not looking up as he scribbled something:

"Sit down, what seems to be the discomfort?"

The pregnant woman chuckled softly:

"It's *your* belly that's uncomfortable~"

The male doctor froze upon hearing the familiar voice. He looked up, saw his wife, and quickly stood up:

"Wife, why are you here?"

"Sit down quickly!"

"Don't tire yourself!"

The slightly rounded woman rolled her eyes:

"Hmph~ If I don't come, will you still have food to eat?"

The man scratched his head and grinned sheepishly.

The woman handed him the lunchbox:

"Have you thought of a name for our son?"

The man replied with a hint of pride:

"I have."

He then walked to the door, peeked outside to ensure no one was around, and closed it.

He walked back and gently touched the woman's belly:

"Let's call him Law."

"Trafalgar D. Water Law."

The woman caressed her belly and said softly:

"Trafalgar Law..."
