Chapter 144: Good guy Amon

Chapter 145

Title: Good guy Amon

....

Sengoku, after sighing once, he got up from the seat. "Anyway, I am feeling a headache coming, I need a cool breeze."

He glanced at Tsuru's face. "You should leave now, it would take at least 4 days to reach Amazon Lily, the higher-ups are pressuring you to finish this job fast."

Saying this, Sengoku left his office as Tsuru got up with an expressionless face.

She lit a cigarette and released a smoke-filled breath. "Well, time to work I guess."

«...★...»

Meanwhile, in Alabasta it was evening, Amon was resting on a chair, half of his body still bandaged.

It's only been one week, and he was already fine... mostly. It seemed he didn't need to wait for two weeks to get better, only a few more days should be enough.

Amon was on the rooftop of the palace, sitting in a flexible chair that was leaning back a bit. He was bathing his body in the evening sunlight.

Beside him, Isa was sitting with a bowl of chicken soup in her hand.

She picked a bit of soup with a spoon in her hand and 'fuu'ed it lightly. She raised her hand towards Amon's face, bringing him to open his mouth.

"..." Amon gulped the soup while looking at the sun.

Isa didn't say anything, she just kept staring at his face, with worry-filled eyes and fed him the soup.

A while later, Isa finished feeding him and put the bowl down. She kept sitting on her stool and stared at Amon's face.

Finally, a while later, she said in a cold voice, "Amon, why do you keep doing this...?"

Amon stayed silent for a while before looking into her eyes, confused. "What are you talking about?"

Isa sighed. "I am just saying... your road towards power, why are you walking on this path? You could have lived a peaceful life after becoming the God of Skypiea... why are you going beyond? This is hurting you so much, so badly, won't it be better to stop?"

Amon didn't want to answer her, it's bothersome. He would rather act confused.

As Amon looked at her with a 'what?' look, Isa smiled lightly. "I've taken care of you since you were a newborn, don't think you can fool me always, little guy."

Isa was trying to say — In front of me, you are just a child.

And she wasn't completely wrong. She might not understand Amon the best, but she knows him the best. She can guess what he would do, just that she can't predict why he would do it.

Amon kept staring at her as she continued. "If you are thinking why I am asking this – I am just curious. You don't really need to answer if you don't want to."

Amon averted his gaze with a smile on his face. "You are asking a – 'Why do you live? Can't you just kill yourself?' Type of question here." Amon chuckled. "What will I do if I don't run after power, Isa?"

"..."

"..."

After a short silence, Isa just sighed. "Fine, you don't have to tell me. Anyway, I will go talk to Vivi-chan. I need to make sure she doesn't get pregnant too young and give her some tips... you need to be careful about that too, okay?"

Amon nodded with a snicker. He didn't plan to have a child yet, they are just burdensome to him.

With that, Isa left the roof as soon after, Robin entered with a basket filled with fresh fruits in her hand.

Amon noticed her and looked at the basket in her hand. "Oh, Robin, I already ate—"

"The doctor said you need to eat more since you are healing too fast." Robin cut him midway.

"But I am full..."

"Bear with it, this is your punishment for fighting with Kaido even though I said not to." Robin sighed. "You know I almost got a heart attack when I first heard you were injured this badly?"

She put the fruit basket on the table beside and leaned towards Amon's face. "Don't you know I will die without you? Listen to me at least once, will you? Stay out of the other Emperors until you are strong enough."

Robin kissed Amon's swollen cheeks and picked up an apple, starting to peel it with equipment.

Soon after, she cut the apple into pieces and put them in his mouth. Amon munched on it slowly, in bliss while enjoying the sunlight.

While giving him food, Robin kept talking. "Also – there was news from the spies in Marineford, it seems a Vice Admiral is going to Amazon Lily, they seemed to be after the Pirate Empress."

"...I see." Anon frowned. He expected this to happen, but not now when he was injured. 'Should I send Raki...? No.' He immediately threw the idea, because Raki will most probably go after Hancock, and Hancock might fall for her if the situation looked that way.

"When will the Marines leave for Amazon Lily?" Amon asked.

"Today."

Hearing Robin's reply, Amon contemplated. 'This is not bad. It usually takes 4 days to reach Amazon Lily from Marineford even after taking the quickest route. Hmm... and I assume Boa Hancock will be able to hold off against them for a few days since all her islanders are warriors. Even if they lose – it would take another 4 more days for them to reach Marineford with the prisoners, so I have at least 10 days in my hand.'

Deciding to deal with Seraph first and Hancock later, Amon put this matter on the back of his head.

Robin fed him some more and sat beside him. The sky was darkening, the night was falling.

She wanted to hug him and enjoy the scene, but she controlled herself to not harm him.

"Yawn..." Amon yawned. "I am sleepy Robin... I am gonna teleport to my room."

Amon said and vanished with a bolt of lightning. He can't walk yet, but he can use his powers.

.....

Just like that, days passed as Amon was soon able to walk in the next five days.

Today, Amon was in the sky with Raki.

Amon was sitting on a bunch of stairs of a large round church building that existed on top of a chunk of cloud. In front of the building, the sky existed, the morning sun was rising on the horizon.

Amon was sitting on a few stairs above Raki's, so she was able to lean her head against his chest. Amon was wearing a few straps of bandages around his body, but they were very few – just his head and chest. Semei Kikan helped in the healing a lot. In fact, it was a mystery why it even took 2 weeks for the healing to finish.

Amon caressed Raki's hair while yawning and looking at the rising sun. "Yawn... Raki, sorry to wake you up like this, I am sleepy too."

Raki replied while looking at the sunrise. "It's fine – even though I was sleeping at Alabasta Palace and you suddenly called me out – as long as it is you, I don't mind." Raki raised her head and looked at his face with a nervous look. "But... Why so suddenly? Did I do something wrong? "

Amon looked at her eyes without replying, making her more nervous as she gulped. "Is it about... how I treat Vivi?"

Raki seemed genuinely nervous, it was unbefitting her usual appearance.

Amon smiled cheekily and patted her head. "That's not it, do you seriously believe I would care for Vivi more than you, my sister?"

"You are most important to me, Raki. You've been with me from the beginning, even on the Moon when I fucked up big time twice. If I had to choose between you and Vivi, who would I choose? Vivi – a girl married to protect Skypiea, or you?" Amon wrapped his hand around her shoulders and brought her close to his chest. "Obviously, you."

Hearing Amon's tempting words, Raki's eyes grew. 'Does he mean it?'

Yes. Amon wasn't lying this time.

Her heart fluttered as Aisa's words from 4 years ago appeared in her mind. 'Aisa... Stupid girl, you were wrong.'

Raki averted her gaze and smiled lightly looking at the red eyes of Amon, shining brighter than the sun itself.

She wanted to scream in joy while grabbing his hands. She wanted to say – "Look at this, Vivi bitch!!" but she didn't.

Amon was sensing what she was feeling and kept staring at her face. 'Looking back... I first wanted to make her a killing machine, I didn't fail entirely, but I don't want to see her like a machine –no. I can't see her as a machine anymore, she is NOT my puppet.'

While thinking this seriously, Amon felt muscles loosen up around his heart. This didn't change his morals – he was still the same ruthless bastard, but Raki was the closest thing to a 'family' to him now.

Chuckling while thinking if this is a good choice or not, Amon stood up and proposed his hand towards Raki. "There is something important for me to show and give you."

"What is it?" Raki accepted his hand with a straight face.

"First," Amon walked to the edge of the cloud while pulling Raki.

The place they were in – was a shrine, a church, made atop of a flying island-cloud even above Shandora, just below it, one can see the Shandora, City of Gold.

Amon looked down at the city, specifically eyeing a creature. Nola, the snake.

"How much do you know about our origin?"

"You mean us, Shandia? Or the Shandorians as a whole?" Raki replied, looking at Nola too.

"Both."

"Nothing much."

Amon chuckled hearing her straightforward answer. This was so like her. Even though she does try to copy him at things, she lacked in the brain department.

He asked again, "Then why do you think we used to worship Snakes as our deities?"

"Because... we were dumb?"

"...Yes, but no."

Raki couldn't answer and tilted her head. "I don't know then. I am dumb at this, brother."

Although Raki's answer was stupid, in reality, this was a very interesting question, something related to the history of Shandorians, the Mesoamericans in the One Piece world – and also related to a Mythology of Amon's previous world.

And why was this important?

'Mythical Zoan.'

It was because it is deeply connected to the source of the devil fruit Amon was expecting the A.I to have. And... he was 100% sure his guess was correct.

'Raki needs to know about this if she wants to use its full power. Though the only problem is – the old Shandians might start worshipping her.'

«...★...»

Meanwhile, in God's Shrine on top of Giant Jack, a little girl at the age of 4 opened her eyes from the bed.

"Uhmm..." She stretched her limbs and looked around with a glint of confusion within her eyes.

'Where is this...?'

She couldn't think more as a voice entered her ears.

"Interesting, you are awake already?"

The girl looked around and found the source of the voice, a little guy with black hair and brown eyes holding two cups in his hand.

"The name's Karna," he looked at her with a smile on his face. "Caffeine or tea?"

"Huh?" The girl yelped, confused. "I, I am O-Tama, I don't know where Chafifne is...so tea?"

She raised her hand and Karna handed her a cup. "Well, I only have coffee, so bear with me. Huhuhu!"

Karna laughed strangely and sat down on the bed beside her. "Anyway, Brother Amo–I mean–Mister Fool dropped you here. You will be my assistant at work from now on. Huhuhu!"

"..." O-Tama looked at him shocked. 'Brother... Fool did? When? How? Where is Brother Ace then?'
