A few days later.
Jaeger didn't leave Oden's house once. He remained there, claiming it was out of respect...for the sake of "educating" the surviving family.
anwhile, five warships led by Stussy arrived. In collaboration with Kaido and King, they began capturing pirates and civilians across the New World, forcing them to mine seastone and forge weapons.
Wano quickly beca a production hub, its economy revived through brutal efficiency and a lucrative alliance with the World Governnt.
But such dramatic shifts did not go unnoticed.
Soon, the whole world was talking.
Morgans, never one to miss drama, plastered headlines everywhere:
"Navy Hero Sengoku Dies in Wano—Kaido Takes His Place!"
"Beast Kaido Joins the Navy!? Power Surges Instead of Crumbling!"
"The Kozuki Clan Falls—Punished by a God Among n: Saint Jaeger!"
Shockwaves rippled across the globe.
Kaido, once a pillar of piracy...now wore a navy coat.
The pirates raged and fud, calling him a traitor.
But in truth, they could do nothing.
The World Governnt, surprisingly, said little about Sengoku's death. To them, the outco was profitable—more seastone, more weapons, and Jaeger's return with Moria ant the public execution of Pirate King Roger could finally proceed.
The Five Elders were pleased.
On the Moby Dick, the air was heavy.
"Oden…"
Whitebeard sat alone, his face dark. Wano had fallen. Kaido had betrayed the pirate world. Oden... His brother was gone too.
"Dad," Marco said cautiously. "Should we avenge Oden?"
The fire in his eyes betrayed his anger, his heartbreak. He and Oden had been close...too close.
But Whitebeard shook his head quickly.
"If Oden were alive, I would burn the world to bring him back."
He stood slowly, every step heavy with grief.
"But he's not. And storming Wano won't bring him ho. It'll only get more of my sons killed."
'Not to ntion... Oden isn't Roger's son. Otherwise, I wouldn't have minded agreeing to my beloved son's request...even if it ant leading them to their deaths, just to avenge him.'
He didn't look back as he entered his quarters, leaving behind sons torn between sorrow, rage, and reluctant understanding.

Navy Headquarters
"I expected this much…"
Fleet Admiral Kong leaned back in his chair, a grimace of pain flickering across his aged face. Only Zephyr and Vice Admiral Tsuru remained by his side now—silent pillars of the fading era.
"I'll promote Gion imdiately," Tsuru said firmly, though the weariness in her voice betrayed her sorrow. "Saint Jaeger, that Celestial Dragon... he must have soone near him who truly loves the Navy."
The irony stung. Giving Gion—so young, so loyal—to a murderer like Jaeger felt like a final slap in the face. After Garp and Sengoku's deaths, this decision only deepened the wound in her heart.

Saitama: "Jaeger, is this mission not over yet? I'm going to get pulled back in two days!"
Uchiha Miyuki: "You'll get used to it. His Highness Jaeger prefers fighting beautiful won over bald n."
Saitama: "Tch! When will n get the spotlight for once?!"
Uchiha Madara: "Hah! Seems I got lucky—I fought Jaeger right after being resurrected."
Uchiha Miyuki: "And didn't he beat you so badly you almost gave up on life?"
Uchiha Madara: "You dare, brat? I'm your bodyguard, not your punching bag. Want Tsunade back in the village? Then behave."
Uchiha Miyuki: "Y-Yes, sir! Please, I beg you, just bring her ho!"
Uchiha Madara: "Hmph. First, let's make you Hokage. Then we'll talk."
Uchiha Miyuki: "Roger that!"
Aizen Sōsuke: "Everyone seems lively. Life here is rather peaceful. The One Piece world lacks intensity, but the scenery, the culture—fascinating. Very different from Soul Society."
Aizen Sōsuke: "I ca across a man who could turn his body to ice. Quite the unique ability. The Devil Fruits are remarkable."
Esdeath: "Logia? That must be Kuzan."
Aizen Sōsuke: "Kuzan, is it? Tall man. No ears. Artificial legs made of ice. Fascinating creature."
Uchiha Miyuki: "Yup, that's him… Poor guy. Got crippled by Jaeger, kicked out of the Navy, beca a pirate—and still ends up eting you, Aizen?"
Esdeath: "What's his condition? I always found him… intriguing."
Aizen Sōsuke: "Alive, surprisingly. Elental bodies are tricky, but manageable. I wanted to study his Devil Fruit's properties, so I... kept him."
Aizen Sōsuke: [Image Attachnt]
In the image, a minimalist laboratory glows under soft light. On the tal table lies Kuzan, silent and motionless. His torso has been opened—revealing flesh, organs, bone. A grim sight.
Uchiha Miyuki: "You call that 'alive'?"
Aizen Sōsuke: "His vital signs are stable. I intend to convert him—either into a Shinigami or Hollow. I want to see if he retains his Devil Fruit powers."
Uchiha Miyuki: "...Good luck with that."
Saitama: "Jaeger! Quit flirting with girls and co out already! n need fights too!"
Uchiha Miyuki: "Haha! Soone's getting impatient."
Luo Hao: "If only you were a beauty, Jaeger would've been knocking at your door already."
T/N: There's no R-18 chapter this ti. I skipped those scenes since they're a bit too heavy for this site, and I'd rather not risk getting the story flagged.
