Chapter 278 The Man in the Delivery Room

Seeing the voice and smile of his adopted son Sachi again, Whitebeard, as the adoptive father, burst into tears. The adopted sons gathered around him, felt their father's sadness, but didn't know how to comfort him.

The adopted sons who were quite close to Edward Newgate had all been sent out to carry out missions. As for the leopard-print nurse standing nearby, she knew how to read people's expressions and did not disturb her man. Only Whitebeard himself could untie the knot in his heart.

"Thatch, just go with peace of mind. I will make Teach pay the price."

Whitebeard's eyes were full of murderous intent, and the terrifying aura on his body kept accumulating. Ever since Thatch was killed by Teach, he had never been so excited as today. Perhaps seeing his dead adopted son made the old man think of the past and miss that big loving family.

Originally, Edward Newgate had set an iron rule before joining the group: absolutely no one could attack their companions on the ship. Everyone was family to each other, and every adopted son had abided by this rule for more than 30 years. However, Teach actually dared to kill his family members who he had been living with day and night because of a devil fruit.

Whitebeard underestimated Marshall D. Teach's ambition. When did Blackbeard change his personality and become so unfamiliar? Did he board the ship with this purpose from the beginning, just to get the Dark-Dark Fruit?

Unexpectedly, when Thatch got a demon grid, he would bring himself a fatal disaster. If Teach really wanted the Dark-Dark Fruit, why didn't he discuss it with his father? Instead, he did the most extreme thing and killed people for treasure. Edward Newgate has been blaming himself these days for raising this scourge. He shouldn't have let Blackbeard on board at that time. Sometimes it's right to support his adopted son's opinion.

The man saw his second captain again. Edward Newgate couldn't help but sigh that time passed so quickly. He didn't expect that Kozuki Oden had been gone for so long. He saw the scene of Kozuki Momonosuke's birth in the sky again, as if this scene had just happened in front of him. Whitebeard suddenly felt that he was old. He didn't know how long he could support this big family.

Five years later, Tianmu pointed out clearly that the Whitebeard Pirates were destroyed and many of his adopted sons were killed or injured. That horrible future has been haunting this man. Edward Newgate hopes that his body will last forever and help the big family he created to overcome the crisis. He cannot accept the fact that the elderly have to send the young off. The man would rather sacrifice himself than let his adopted sons lose their lives.

The filial son Squard (Great Whirlpool Spider) is just the captain of a pirate ship under the Whitebeard Pirates. He returned early because he was worried about his father's health. Seeing Whitebeard sad, the adopted son felt unspeakable pain in his heart. Except for Teach, the unfilial son, every son of the Whitebeard Pirates is loyal to Edward Newgate.

"Dad, you must take care of yourself. I believe that the brothers will catch that damn bastard Teach."

Squard expressed the thoughts of the other adopted sons. They had been under their father's halo for too long and sometimes looked down on everyone in the world. They also felt that Teach would not be a master at this time and believed that he was just a fat man who was good at sneak attacks.

However, the discussion about Blackbeard on the Moby Dick was soon terminated by the following content on the skylight. No one had expected that when Madame Toki was giving birth many years ago, an uninvited guest would come to the ship, but the owners of the ship did not notice anything.

——Boundary line——

[The wailing of Lady Toki in the sky was getting weaker and weaker. At this time, the sun outside had already set. Only a few captains were left at the door of the delivery room. Kozuki Oden, as her husband, was of course one of them. This samurai with a different way of thinking was considering whether to save the adult or the child.

A captain with a pineapple head understood the intention of his big brother. The man couldn't help laughing and said, "Don't worry, Oden. As the ship's doctor, I will never let anything happen to Mrs. Toki. You don't trust the nurses, so can't you trust me?"

Character Notes: Marco, the captain and doctor of the first team of the Whitebeard Pirates, is a user of the Phoenix form of the Bird-Bird Fruit, a mythical beast of the Animal Department.

Marco can use the ability of his fruit to heal the wounded. Even if Mrs. Toki has to have a caesarean section in the end, he can immediately enter the delivery room to prevent heavy bleeding during the operation and protect the safety of adults and children throughout the process. At this critical moment, there is no need to avoid suspicion. The most important thing is to survive.

"Marco will be relying on you in a while, you must protect my wife. It is a blessing for me to meet this good woman in this life, and I don't want to lose her so soon."

Kozuki Oden, with tears in his eyes, hugged his good brother Marco in his arms. This man now really needs comfort from outsiders, as he is very afraid of losing his wife.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything"

Just as Marco was patting Kozuki Oden's shoulder and comforting his good samurai brother, a familiar leopard-print nurse passed by. Seeing his father's woman enter the delivery room, the cautious ship doctor did not appear to have any doubts.

It was just a little strange that when the leopard-print nurse left the delivery room. Since she was his father's woman, Marco did not delve into it too much. For the time being, he still had to listen to the news inside and be ready to enter the delivery room to treat his wife at any time. But the man did not know that he had let an uninvited guest into the delivery room.

In the delivery room, Toki was still moaning softly. Due to the malposition of the fetus, it was difficult for the woman to give birth. The leopard-printed female nurses were considering performing a caesarean section immediately. Such a thing as two lives lost in one corpse must not happen here. If Mrs. Toki and the baby in her belly could not be saved, there was no guarantee that Whitebeard would not take their old friendship into consideration and kill these women to vent his anger for Kozuki Oden.

When the head nurse saw the familiar woman, she said angrily: "When did you go out? It's so busy here and you're still slacking off. Come over and give me a hand."

As a woman with great authority, she spoke and scolded, but the leopard-print nurse who came in later was indifferent, with dull eyes and a wooden expression on her face. Marco did not notice anything strange because he had not been with her day and night. The head nurse realized something was wrong in an instant and thought that her good sister was a little strange today.

"Tian Yueshi, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I wonder if you still remember me after so long."

A male voice actually came out of the leopard-print female nurse's mouth. Such a sudden change instantly made the atmosphere in the delivery room fall into silence. Was this a prank by some captain?

Mrs. Shi, with sweat all over her face, raised her head with difficulty, only to see that all the other women in the room had dull eyes, trapped in some kind of control, and could not perceive any information from the outside world.

The one standing at the door was a leopard print nurse with thick black hair that fell past her shoulders. The man was wearing red armor, a characteristic of the country of Wano, with a signature round fan on his back. There were dart-like shapes in his red pupils. The woman saw eyes that she would never forget in her life, and her heart finally died.]
