Chapter 516: The Price of Saving People, You Should Know, Right?
The moonlight was bright.
The night fell on the sea.
The Whitebeard Pirates held a grand banquet in order to celebrate their victory and obtain the Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit). It was not until late at night that it ended.
The entire Moby Dick was full of drunk pirates.
Even Marco and the other captains who had just rushed back drank a few cups after hearing about Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit). Even Whitebeard put down the juice and was allowed to drink a few bowls of wine.
Unfortunately…
Sasuke still refused to drink.
Even though he had passed the threshold of twenty years old and was at the age where he could drink in the ninja world, he still insisted on drinking juice.
Sasuke stood on the bow of the Moby Dick and slowly sipped the juice in his hand. He then heard footsteps coming to him.
“Is it Teach?”
Sasuke still looked at the moonlight reflected on the sea and said softly, “Go up and rest tonight. I’ll help you keep watch tonight…”
“Zehahaha, it doesn’t matter…”
Teach walked to Sasuke’s side and grinned with a simple and honest smile, “Today, Sasuke’s battle was very hard… Anyway, I don’t need to sleep at night. I’ve been standing guard on Moby Dick for twenty years!”
Teach never needed to sleep.
This matter was not a secret in the entire Whitebeard Pirates.
For twenty years, Marshall D. Teach had been working hard and doing the night duty on Moby Dick. He had always been popular with Whitebeard Pirates. Even Whitebeard was generous with Teach.
In fact…
Teach was actually afraid that when he was dreaming, he would say some words and arouse Whitebeard Pirates’ suspicion.
This guy was extremely cautious.
“Zehahaha…”
Teach glanced at Sasuke and asked curiously, “Because we found Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) today, and you will reunite with Mr. Itachi soon, so Sasuke can’t sleep tonight?”
“No…”
Sasuke shook his head and slowly squeezed the juice cup in his hand. He said in a low voice, “I just don’t understand why that person wanted Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)…
That person never does useless work. Everything he does is trying to benefit himself. Unfortunately, I feel that he doesn’t need Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)’s power, so why did he want that fruit?”
“Who knows…”
Teach scratched his hair and took a bite of cherry pie. He laughed and said, “Maybe he is just curious!”
“There is indeed a possibility…”
Sasuke nodded and frowned slightly, “That guy does seem to have a strange collecting habit and always likes to collect some strange things…”
Uehara really liked to collect things.
However, the things he collected were often a little scary, such as Konoha Four Kage, such as Kirigakure Seven Ninja Swordsman, such as the Three Marine Admiral, such as Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Obito, and Uchiha Madara of their Uchiha Clan…
Sasuke had a faint feeling that if his life were exhausted, Uehara would probably revive him and add him to his collection…
The troublesome thing was…
Even if Sasuke died and his body was cremated, it would be useless. Maybe Uehara had already collected enough materials.
It was really an incomprehensible hobby.
Teach nodded along with Sasuke’s words and said with a smile, “Anyway, Thatch will definitely exchange Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) for Mr. Itachi. Our 2nd Division will have another new member soon!”
“I will stop him.”
After frowning, Sasuke sighed again, “Forget it; I will go to rest first. Teach, sorry to trouble you.”
“Zehahaha, it doesn’t matter!”
Teach shook his head and said happily, “Sasuke, rest early! Seeing that everyone is so happy, maybe there will be another banquet tomorrow!”
“…”
Sasuke seemed to be a little speechless.
However, Sasuke did not curse at him as he did before. He returned to his room to rest.
After Sasuke left.
Teach clenched his fists, and his eyes revealed a trace of fierceness. His smile was almost unable to be suppressed, “Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)… Akatsuki’s leader wants to get Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit); of course, it’s because of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)’s power!”
This was a matter of course!
Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) was the most evil fruit in this world!
Teach has been hiding in Whitebeard Pirates for so many years for the sake of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit). He has an unimaginable admiration and dedication for Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)!
Teach understood very well that the leader of the Akatsuki Organization wanted to get Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) because he also thought so!
The sky was getting darker and darker.
The moonlight still fell on the Moby Dick.
Teach’s figure came out of the door of Thatch’s room. There was an evil smile on his face, and there was a dark shadow under his feet.
Teach carefully walked in and looked up to see Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit), who was placed on the table by Thatch. Obviously, this 4th Division Captain trusted his companion very much.
Unfortunately…
There was an ambitious man on this ship.
Teach almost couldn’t wait to grab the box. His face was full of greed and madness!
Just as Teach grabbed the box and was about to leave, a voice shocked Teach, “What’s the matter? If you’re hungry, there’s a supper for you in the kitchen…”
Thatch, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes.
The 4th Division Captain couldn’t help rubbing his eyes and looking at the figure that suddenly appeared in his room; a touch of surprise flashed on his face, “Huh? Teach?”
The next moment, Thatch saw the box where the Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) was stored in Teach’s hand, and a touch of astonishment flashed on his face.
“Wait… Teach, what are you doing!”
“…”
Teach’s expression stiffened.
This man, who had been hiding for twenty years, knew very well that Thatch absolutely could not alarm everyone on this ship at this time. Otherwise, he would not be able to escape Whitebeard Pirates’ pursuit!
Especially Sasuke!
What greeted Thatch…
It was a sharp sword!
Teach’s palm suddenly covered Thatch’s mouth. He picked up a sword and inserted it into Thatch’s chest. His arm trembled little by little!
“Zehahaha… haha…”
Teach could not believe what he had done. A hint of fear and uneasiness flashed across his face. He forced a smile to hide his shock, “Zehahaha… haha… Thatch… I’m really sorry… I didn’t mean to…”
Whitebeard Pirates’ iron law…
They absolutely could not hurt their companions on their ship!
It did not matter even if he defected and left Whitebeard Pirates, but the iron law of harming his companions absolutely could not be violated!
Teach gritted his teeth and released Thatch. His palm grabbed Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)’s box and left.
Thatch could not believe it…
The person who hurt him was actually Teach!
Taking advantage of the night
Teach put down a small boat and fled the scene in a hurry. Because the entire Moby Dick had a grand banquet, many pirates were drunk, and no one noticed his escape.
Only one person was different.
Sasuke was not dead asleep.
Sasuke could not help but open his eyes. His chakra perception and Kenbunshoku Haki(Observation Haki) silently spread and quickly enveloped the entire Moby Dick.
In the next moment, Sasuke quickly jumped out of the ship!
Sasuke’s figure quickly came out of Thatch’s room. He also saw the bloody Thatch, who was on the verge of dying. A touch of astonishment flashed in his eyes…
“Marco!”
A loud shout resounded throughout the entire Moby Dick!
The people on the Moby Dick instantly woke up, and the pirates who heard the sound rushed to Thatch’s room.
Late at night.
The ship doctor, Marco, gave Thatch medicine and said, “Thatch’s injuries are too serious. There is no other way… Sasuke, what is going on?”
“I don’t know yet.”
Sasuke frowned and suddenly turned to look at everyone, “Huh? Where is Teach? Isn’t he keeping watch tonight?”
“Teach… is missing…”
A pirate squeezed in with an ugly expression and whispered, “Marco, Sasuke, we also have one less lifeboat…”
“It’s Teach!”
Thatch weakly opened his eyes. A bitter smile appeared on his face, and blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth, “Teach… he stole Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)… Sasuke, you must chase him back. That Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) is Mr. Itachi’s freedom!”
“What a joke!”
Ace couldn’t help but reveal a touch of surprise.
Sasuke was somewhat in disbelief. All the pirates present had a flash of doubt on their faces. They also didn’t believe that Teach would do such a thing.
How could Teach, the guy who had always been honest in the 2nd Division, rob Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) and even have the courage to hurt Thatch?
That was the senior member of Whitebeard Pirates!
Moreover, Teach even gave up the chance to become the Division Captain. How could he possibly hurt Thatch and snatch Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) away!
“That guy…”
Sasuke felt his scalp go numb. At this moment, he could not help but have a bad premonition about Teach escaping with Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit).
Whitebeard also soon knew what happened on the ship. After the old man looked at Thatch’s injury, his face finally showed a touch of pain.
He really didn’t expect…
After so many years, Whitebeard Pirates will have a traitor who would violate the iron law of the ship, which made the Whitebeard a little sad.
What made this old man even more sad was…
Thatch, the child who had been by his side for so many years, had actually died in the hands of a traitor tonight.
“Marco, you first stabilize Thatch’s injuries…”
Sasuke looked at Whitebeard, whose face was full of pain, and the people around him who were gradually becoming sad. He said in a low voice, “Let’s think of a way to save Thatch first!”
“Sasuke…”
Marco looked confused.
Everyone could not help but look at Sasuke in confusion.
“Marco, how much longer can Thatch hold on?”
Sasuke gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, “Let’s hurry to Wano Country now. The medical ninjas in Akatsuki Organization will definitely be able to save Thatch!”
Even if those medical ninjas can’t save him…
Uehara would definitely be able to do it!
In Uehara’s hands, life and death had already become his toys. As long as Uehara was willing to make a move, he would definitely be able to save Thatch.
“…”
Everyone could not help but reveal a hint of doubt and astonishment.
Wano Country was located in the Beast Pirates sea region. If they go there, a war with Beast Pirates was inevitable. Moreover, the relationship between Akatsuki and Whitebeard Pirates, which was entrenched in Wano Country, was very subtle…
However, when Sasuke called his brother Itachi overnight and told him that someone was seriously injured here and needed the help of the medical ninja.
“Who is injured?”
Itachi could not help but be surprised.
Sasuke suppressed the emotions in his voice and whispered, “It’s the cook on our ship, Thatch. I think only the medical ninja can save him. It’s best if it’s Tsunade or that person…”
“Is that so…”
There was a hint of hesitation in Itachi’s voice. He asked calmly, “Sasuke, you should know the price of saving people, right?”
“Nii-san.”
Sasuke clenched his Den Den Mushi tightly and said in a low voice, “Please tell him that if Thatch dies from serious injuries, I can also use Rinnegan to resurrect him. It’s just one life for another!”
“Sasuke, don’t do anything stupid.”
After a moment of silence, Itachi said, “That person can make a move and let Thatch survive, but you have to give Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) to him…”
“We agree.”
Sasuke slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
