Chapter 278: Post Battle

Deon's denden mushi suddenly rang off so he picks it up. It is Brook who calls him to inform him that the war on Onigashima has finished. They've defeated all enemies on Onigashima so they can go back now.

"You've finished them all? That's good, then you need to return ASAP, we need Manba now," says Deon.

"Oh no, has someone been injured badly?" asks Brook worriedly.

"Yeah, it's Captain. He defeated Kaido but his condition is worse than the one that he defeated," says Deon.

"Then we will go back now... Ah!" says Brook before he realizes something.

"What is it?" asks Deon.

"The Black Pearl isn't here," says Brook.

"Ah," says Deon back.

They've just remembered that the Black Pearl was used by Jude, Dela, & Oden to return from Onigashima. There are still the ships that the samurai used but they aren't as fast as the Black Pearl.

"Well, it's better than nothing. Tell Manba to return now, his team can stay behind to treat the others. But he needs to return because I don't think anyone else can treat Captain's injuries. There are also some badly injured people here so we need his help," says Deon.

"I understand," says Brook before closing the call.

Deon & Jude then take Buggy back to Kuri while Oden & Ushimaru stay behind. They still have some business with the chopped Kaido. The Clowns don't have anything to do with it so they leave.

"What do you think they'll do to Kaido?" asks Jude while running.

Deon who runs with Buggy on his back ponders for a moment before replying, "Beat him up, I guess."

"Isn't that obvious?" asks Jude while looking at Deon as if he is an idiot.

'Then why did you ask if the answer is obvious? Sigh, women are difficult,' says Deon in his heart. He doesn't say it out loud because he will just get hit by Jude if he says that. So he just stays silent and keeps running while being careful to not shake Buggy too much.

"How could he defeat Kaido in such a condition? I would've died many times if I was in his condition while fighting," says Manba with a worried but amazed tone.

"That is not important right now. You need to treat him immediately," says Jude.

"I can't, it's better to wait for Captain to regain his consciousness. It will be easier to operate him if he splits his body. That way, we can reduce the risk of the operation and we don't need to open his skin. Besides," says Manba before he stabs a medical knife at Buggy's left leg.

The others are surprised by Manba's sudden action. But they get even more surprised when Manba pulls the knife out. There's no wound whatsoever on the place that he stabbed.

"I don't know what happened but his devil fruit is still active even when he is unconscious. For your information, I used Armament Haki just now, but I still couldn't open his skin. This can only mean that his devil fruit ability has improved tremendously," says Manba.

"Hmm, now that I think about it, Captain must've chopped Kaido's body using his ability. That's why Kaido is still alive even after being chopped and turned into a ball like that. Then, there's only one answer, devil fruit awakening," says Deon.

"Yeah, that's the only possible answer. We have seen Captain's ability for a long time but this is on a whole new level. So awakening is the only possibility," says Manba.

Jude smiles and says, "He always talked about awakening and now he finally gets it. It's a good thing but it's saddening that he needs to be like this to awaken his devil fruit."

They all wait for Buggy to wake up and he awakes 3 hours later. Effective immediately, Manba starts to operate Buggy after explaining the situation. The war has ended but they still have problems to solve.
