Only few hours have passed since the battle between Koch and the Admirals. The major newspapers have recorded everything, the news about Koch death was spread all over the Grand Line, both Paradise and New World.
Whitebeard Pirates, Moby Dick.
"Pops, just got the news, that the Admirals ambushed Koch at the Sabaody Archipelago." Marco waved the newspaper.
"What?"
All the Whitebeard Pirates that were all over the ship, immediately gathered on the deck and looked at the newspaper.
There were few pictures of the three Admirals who were fighting with Koch.
"Those three brats." Whitebeard looked at Akainu, Aokiji and Kizaru, he knew about the three new Admirals.
"Three Admirals teamed together just to deal with Koch, those Marines are so shameless."
Whitebeard couldn't help but sigh, he have lived the life of pirates for decades but the marines never attack them at such force, he couldn't understand why the marines are so afraid of Koch, so much that they send all three Admirals.
"Koch is doomed, the three Admiral are together, Koch will be killed."
"But this newspaper only wrote about the battle, but didn't publish the result."
Marco, looked at the newspaper with different expression, if koch was ambushed by the three Admirals, then the death of Koch was confirmed, but why there was no result yet.
After two hours another news bird came to the Whitebeard ship to deliver the newspaper.
Marco bought the newspaper and read the news.
"Koch was killed, but not by the three Admirals. Zephyr, an Admiral from the previous generation also came."
"Marines are so crazy, just to deal with Koch they send four Admirals."
Marco read the whole news and was shocked.
"This is not a trivial matter, the four Admirlas joined the force, but Koch almost killed Zephyr and Akainu was seriously injured, the battle lasted two hours."
"What?" Everyone on the ship were shocked.
Whitebeard take the newspaper and looked at the detail of the battle and also the picture of Zephyr, and Akainu.
This newspaper was not from the world government, so all the detail and the picture of the battle were posted.
Whitebeard sigh, ambushed by four Admirals, such thing had never happened before.
Suddenly Marco pointed to the bottom of the newspaper, something was written there in very small letters.
"Pops, look at this, the marines announced that after three months, in the place where Koch died, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the Shichibukai will be announced."
Whitebeard frowned, and looked at the news.
"Marines are too ruthless, they want to humiliate Koch death." Marco said.
Stepping on someone grave, the marines were more shameless than the pirates.
Fishman Island.
Koch and the girls were warmly welcomed by The fishmens.
After Koch and the crew arrived at the Fishman island, they cannot buy newspaper at the Fishman island, but shakky who has many channels, she easily got the news.
After hearing the news about the Shichibukai establishment right above Koch's grave, the girls were furious. Even the young kuina knew that, they shouldn't be disrespectful to someones grave.
The marines were going to humiliate Koch even after his death, they were so shameless.
Although Koch is not dead, but the Grove one is now recognised as the Grave of koch, the girls can't let the marines humiliate Koch.
All the girls looked at Koch, the girls want to destroyed the Marine's plan.
"Marines and the World Government gave such a great opportunity to us, we have to take it."
Koch wanted to take revenge against the marines, and now the marines themself gave best opportunity to Koch to take revenge.
"Koch, this time I am going with you." Gion stood firm.
"We are also going." All the girls looked at Koch.
"Fine, we can attack them together." Koch replied and looked at, Gion, Stussy, Hancock, Shakky and Belo Betty. They are the only one who are good at fighting in the crew right now.
"There is still three months, we need to train more." Gion said to the girls.
Shakky is also trying to get back her lost combat experience, and she is also looking forward to have the Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit.
Three month is not a long time, they all need to train more, if they want to attack the marines and also the Shichibukai. Koch also thought of getting the Vampire devil fruit after they enter the New World.
...
On the sea, the news of Koch death quickly spread all over the sea.
The news created a huge uproar, when the people read the newspaper, they were shocked and couldn't believes it.
Many big pirates were also shocked by the news.
Totto Land.
Charlotte Linlin looked at the newspaper and become angry.
"Damn, those Marines, I couldn't get his genes."
She believe Koch is one of the most talented human she had ever seen, but now he was dead, even his body was burned to ashes.
"The four Admirlas attacked together and killed him, such a perfect gene, its gone."
The more she think about, the more angry she become.
Katakuri sighed and looked at the pictures.
"It is also an honor to die at the hands of the four Admirals."
If one day he was going to die then, he hoped that he will die in the same way as Koch.
Smoothie and the other girls, stared at the picture, they were shocked. After Big Mom announced that one of them will marry Koch, they were mentally preparing for that day, but now they received the news of Koch death.
"Even his death was earth-shattering." Smoothie looked at Koch picture, Koch was the perfect husband candidate.
Smoothie looked at Big Mom and asked. "Mama, let me bring Koch's body, we can gave a proper funeral for him."
"Smoothie, the dead person have no value." Big Mom was angry and directly rejected Smoothie.
"Smoothie, just give up this idea and read the newspaper." Katakuri gave the newspaper to smoothie.
Reading the newspaper, smoothie was shocked and was full of anger.
Right now all the pirates were angry, they were not interested in this Shichibukai system. The pirates were going against the World Government, but the Shichibukai are going to work right under the world government, they are no longer pirates, they are the dogs of the world government now.
"There are many supporters of Koch, but no one dares to take his body from the Sabaody. The whole island was surrounded by many marines." Katakuri stared atbthe picture of Koch.
" .. , if the marriage between Koch and my daughter was successful, I would have forgiven Stussy, but now Koch is dead and Stussy is out there, she need to be punished." Big Mom released her ferocious Conqueror's haki.
"Katakuri, go and bring Stussy back to me, I want to let the world know, what will happen to anyone who dares to reject my tea party." Big Mom ordered katakuri, she want to vent her anger and she found the perfect candidate.
Totto Land.
"Katakuri, go and bring Stussy back to me, I want to let the world know, what will happen to anyone who dares to reject my tea party." Big Mom ordered katakuri, she want to vent her anger and she found the perfect candidate.
Katakuri, as the strongest member of the Big Mom Pirates, accepted this task.
No one dares to refuse Big Mom order, no matter who you are, you have to act obediently.
"Mama, the Sun and Moon Pirates were little special than we thought." The eldest son perospero said as he read the newspaper.
"The newspaper said that, the Sun and Moon pirates have the Ope-Ope Devil Fruit, which gave the user an ability to perform Immortal Surgery, and kaido also want the Mythical Zoan phoenix Devil Fruit of Gion."
These two Devil Fruit were attracting the attention of the many strong pirates from the New World.
With the help of Doflamingo, many newspapers companies got the news about the secret of the Ope-Ope Devil Fruit, and the news was already posted on the newspaper. Many major forces of the New World already received this news.
"Immortal Surgery?"
Big Mom took the newspaper and read all the detail about these two Devil Fruits, her eyes were filled with Greed.
She is already a sea emperors, if she want something, she can easily get it, so there are not many things that can attract her attention, but eternal life is something that everyone wants.
" .. , Katakuri, bring this Ope-Ope Devil Fruit to me, and also bring Gion, we can make some deal with Kaido. If she refuse then kill her, we can't have her joined the Beast pirates."
Katakuri frowned, he didn't leave immediately.
"What's wrong, why are you not leaving?"
Big Mom stared at Katakuri,
"mama, Gion is very strong, it will be difficult to bring her back alive and there is also Stussy, who also have a great strength, this task will be difficult for me alone." Katakuri said to Big Mom, although he was confident on his own strength, but to win against Gion and Stussy, it will be difficult for him.
"Smoothie, you go with Katakuri." Big Mom looked at her daughter, Smoothie.
Katakuri is the strongest among her sons, and Smoothie is the strongest among her daughters.
"Yes."
Smoothie stood up, she was little conflicted, the Sun and Moon Pirates were going to be their allies, but now she was going against them, Smoothie hesitated for a while.
Unknown Sea, Red Haired Pirates.
Shanks also got the news of Koch' death.
"Koch is dead?" Shanks looked at Benn Beckman who was reading the newspaper, and was shocked.
"Is the true or false?"
"It's true, all the newspapers published the same news of Koch's death." Benn Beckman said, while smoking cigarette.
"No way, I never thought Koch will die like this."
"We have only been apart for six months."
"Koch is as strong as Captain, how did he die?"
The crew were shocked, they knew Koch was as strong as Shanks, so it was hard to belive that someone can kill koch.
"Marines were so ruthless, they send all three Admirals and Zephyr, just to kill Koch." Benn Beckman who was reading the newspaper, said to the crew.
All of them were silent, they knew it was impossible to escape from four Admirlas.
"I told Koch to stay low, but he didn't listen, he should not have killed that Celestial Dragons." Shanks was not feeling well.
"If I had known, I should have fought with him again, for makino, if I managed to take makino away, she wouldn't die so soon."
The Red Haired Shanks kept hitting the deck with his fists, he couldn't belive that Makino is dead now.
"Uh... shanks, it is only Koch that died in the battle. According to the newspaper, Koch fought all the Admirals alone and the other members mangae to escape safely, after fighting for few hours he died of exhaustion." Benn Beckman explained to Shanks and the crew, the full detail of the battle.
"What?"
The Red Haired Shanks was shocked and picked up the newspaper as quickly as possible and stare at the contents of the newspaper.
After reading the newspaper, Shanks sighed deeply.
"I admired Koch, for the sake of the crew, he faced the four Admirals alone."
Shanks admired Koch decision, he also understands. If all the members of the Sun and Moon Pirates joined forces to fight against the four Admiral, there was a high chance that all of them would be killed, but if koch fought alone there was certainly probability that others member can escape.
"Koch gave up his life so that the rest of crew can escape safely, he was a great captain."
"There are very few captain like this, who can sacrifice themselves for the crew."
All the crew were full of respect.
Shanks was silent, he was silently reading the newspaper
Shanks start to drink desperately.
"Shanks, now it not the time to be depressed, there are a lot of news in the sea right now, it is rumored that the Sun and Moon Pirates have the Ope-Ope Devil Fruit that has the ability to perform the Immortal Surgery, many big pirates have started to make their moves, including Kaido and Big Mom. The world government will also be after the Ope-Ope Devil Fruit, and without Koch, the Sun and Moon Pirates are in very dangerous situation. There are not many strong member in the Sun and Moon Pirates, Gion and the Queen of the Pleasure District, stussy, are the only one who have enough strength, other are all weak."
Benn Beckman reminded Shanks.
"what!"
Shanks stood up abruptly, his eyes became sharp.
"Who dares."
A powerful Conqueror's haki was released from Shanks.
"It is time to take action, release the news and let sea know, that the member of the Sun and Moon Pirates are protected by the the Red Haired Pirates. If anyone make a move against the Sun and Moon Pirates they will be the enemy of the Red Haired pirates." Shanks declared.
"Yes"
All the members of the Red Haired pirates were excited.
The Red Haired pirate ship set off, Shanks was standing on the deck of the ship, he knew that his warning could not stop everyone, he only hoped that the Sun and Moon Pirates were at safe location right now.
"Koch, I reminded you, to gather powerful crew members, but you still choose only females members."
Red Haired Shanks couldn't help but complained about Koch.
New World, Wano kuni.
The announcement of the Red Haired Shanks was also spread to the sea, many pirates were terrified, they were afraid to take any action. The Ope-Ope Devil Fruit, may make them Immortal but it can't make them invincible.
But the threat of Red Haired Shanks was not enough for the big pirates like, Beast pirates and Big Mom Pirates.
"That Red Haired boy is too arrogant, did he think that he can monopolize Koch's treasure alone." Kaido didn't take this threat seriously.
Although Red Haired Shanks was strong and have the qualifications to become the fourth emperor of the sea, but he was still weaker than Kaido and Big Mom, so how could kaido be afraid of Shanks.
