Neither. It is a legume.

Technically, a pea is a seed and a peapod a fruit because it contains the seed (the pea) necessary for reproduction. A legume is a fruit that splits along the sides when ripe to release the seed within it.

All legumes are fruits, including peas,beans, lentils and even peanuts or ground nuts.
