The next morning.

When the first ray of morning light shines on the Beluga, this world-famous giant pirate ship is still a little quiet. Only some people who have formed a biological clock will get up and be busy with various things.

Pirates rarely get up early!

If most pirates could insist on getting up early every day, they would not go to sea and become pirates.

Some pirates pursue freedom rather than freedom.

When most people were drunk last night, even fewer people could get up.

The ones who really got up early here were Whitebeard and his Pink Nurse Ship Medical Team. Yes, at this time, Whitebeard also had a team of nurses taking care of his body.

In the plot, it was during the war that he disbanded the team of nurses and drove them back.

A strong aroma began to waft from the kitchen.

The chefs of the fourth team got up early to prepare breakfast for the white-bearded father and a group of people who got up in the morning.

No one bothered Sachi at this time, because everyone knew that he was the protagonist of yesterday, and he was destined not to wake up at this time.

But at noon, Sachi had not yet appeared.

This is rather strange.

Someone from the Fourth Division finally walked into Sachi's room and found Sachi who had been dead for a long time.

"It's not good, it's not good, Captain Sachi Sachi was killed!!"

The whole ship was shocked!

Ace ran to Thatch's room first, followed closely by Marco.

"Sachi!!"

Ace clenched his fists tightly. He couldn't believe the scene in front of him. He almost subconsciously wanted to help Thatch up.

Thatch fell to the floor, and the blood on it had long solidified. Marco stopped Ace, and with a solemn and sad face, he squatted down to check on Thatch's condition.

After a while.

After standing up, Marco looked around the environment again and said with a serious face: "Sachi was stabbed in the heart with a knife. He died last night and the Devil Fruit was nowhere to be found.

Who drank with him here yesterday? He is the most likely suspect!"

Many people had already come outside Sage's room. After hearing Marco's words, someone answered: "Tich, it's Tich. I saw Tich and Sage walking back home very intimately yesterday.

room, and said he wanted to continue drinking."

Ace's expression changed.

Before he could say anything, Ace separated from the crowd and ran out.

He returned to his second division and asked hurriedly: "Has anyone seen Teach?"

By this time, news of Sage's accident had spread throughout the Moby Dick.

Ace asked this question. It seemed that Teach was very suspicious. Although the people in the second team couldn't believe that a guy as honest as Teach would do such a thing.

But now is not the time to question Ace.

"Tiqi seems to have not come back since last night. When I got up at night to go to the bathroom, there was no one where he slept."

Ace was silent, this result was somewhat unpredictable, but what he saw in front of him all pointed to Teach.

"Go, everyone, go look for Teach's whereabouts and see if you can find him."

On the deck of the Moby Dick.

Whitebeard was still sitting on his tall seat in the front, while the others were gathered in small groups below.

Except for those who have not returned from the sea, most of the 16 division captains and important cadres are here.

The middle of the deck.

It was Sachi, who had been covered with a white cloth, lying there, but there was no sound anymore.

"Report to Dad, we have searched the whole ship and found no trace of Teach.

However, there is a one-man boat missing."

silence.

A silence audible from the drop of a needle.

No one said anything. Although this result had been thought of, it was still unacceptable to everyone if it actually happened.

The most important rule of the Whitebeard Pirates is that they cannot kill their companions!

Not only the rules, but also the impact on the reputation of the Whitebeard Pirates. You must know that everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates values ​​their family more than anything else.

If this kind of thing spreads, what will others think of Whitebeard?

Is this what you call family?

If you stab and kill your own family members, what kind of family members are you?

"Asshole, I'm going to catch that guy back and make him come over to atone for the sins of Dad and Sachi. He actually committed such an unforgivable crime!"

Ace looked at his sad father and Sachi lying there covered with a white cloth, and could no longer suppress his anger.

Teach was a member of his second team, and when something like this happened, even though it was Teach's own behavior, Ace felt that it was also a dereliction of duty on his part.

No matter what, he must capture Teach himself.

"Ace, don't be impulsive."

"Yes, Ace, don't be too impulsive, dad hasn't spoken yet."

The people onlookers quickly grabbed Ace and tried to persuade him not to act impulsively.

"Ace"

Whitebeard suddenly spoke and stopped him, "Forget it, don't go."

Marco on the side also spoke up: "Ace, we all understand how you feel, but now is not the time to pursue these matters. We must bury Sachi first."

Ace, who had been struggling, became quiet when he heard Marco's words.

Marco was right, the top priority was not to settle the score with Teach first, but to bury Teach first.

The huge Moby Dick sets sail.

Heading towards an unknown island, that is not Sachi’s hometown, but it is the place where Sachi joined the Whitebeard Pirates.

"Uncle, you look very hungry. Do you want me to cook for you? I'm a very good chef!"

"Hey, Dad, I will definitely cook the most delicious meals in the future, do you believe it?"

"How are you doing, Dad? The cooking I made is not bad. I researched this specially for Dad. Oh, I forgot to add salt. Dad, please stop drinking. Why did you drink it all?"

"Dad, do you still remember this place? This is the place where I first met you. You looked a little embarrassed at that time. Besides, how could you ask someone to be your son when we first met!"

Think about it, bury him there and his soul will rest in peace.

The white-bearded man sitting on the bow of the boat is still hanging a bottle.

His tall back, which had always been upright, suddenly looked a little stooped.

The past pictures in my mind were frozen in this way, and finally they all condensed into Sachi's appearance.

He smiled in the picture and looked back at Whitebeard: "Dad, I'm leaving. You must take care of yourself in the future. It's a pity that I can't cook you delicious food anymore."

There seemed to be a flash of light in Whitebeard's eyes.

Even the strongest man in the world, Whitebeard, is not immune to the grief that white-haired people send black-haired people!

One day more than half a month later.

Saturday, sunny with a slight breeze.

Thatch's funeral was held on an uninhabited island. The funeral was attended by all the officers of the Whitebeard Pirates.

The tombstone is cut from an ordinary-looking stone, with Sage's name simply written on it, and there is a chef's hat on top of the tombstone.

That was given to Sage by Whitebeard. Sage thought the hat would ruin his hairstyle and never wore it.

But actually he kept it in his own room.

This time I was able to keep him company

After condolences.

Ace took one last deep look at the tomb and tombstone, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and he walked out without saying a word.

"Ace."

Whitebeard's voice sounded behind him. He was standing at this moment. Next to the tall figure, there was a wooden frame with a bottle hanging on it, which was giving him medicine.

He looked a little tired, obviously he hadn't had a good rest these days.

He dissuaded: "Forget it Ace, forget it this time, I have a very ominous premonition."

Ace stopped and turned to look at Whitebeard: "Dad, how could you let it go like this? That guy is my subordinate. If you ignore it, how will the killed Sachi rest in peace?"
