Chapter 77

Title: Birth of a new family!

…

"Wait a second, you mean… Sir Crocodile's fruit?"

Suddenly realising this fact, Cobra asked dumbfounded. 'He is offering a fruit eaten by a person already? Is he trying to scam me?'

Frowning, Cobra glared at Amon.

"What? Don't look at me like that, it's not Crocodile's fruit. Tell me, do you even know his fruit's name?” Amon said. “In fact, how many people know about it anyway? People only know it's a sand-based logia, that's all."

Amon shrugged at him. It was true that people didn't know Crocodile's fruit name. If they did, they might have theorised his weakness a long time ago as well. 

"And… How do you prove that? I mean, the fact that his fruit isn't the same one you are talking about? Don't misunderstand, even if I'm pretty lost at these things, I do know that the same elemental Logia can't exist. Also, it's suspicious as to why you want to give a Logia to Vivi? She is no one to you."

Cobra threw him a question at which, Amon shrugged again. 

"Listen, first of all, I'm NOT giving it away. You can take it as a wedding gift, I won’t give it before we get married, not even after the engagement." Amon smiled lightly. "After I marry Vivi I'd want her, my wife, to be strong enough to protect herself. I don't want any harm to reach her! By then she would be MY wife, I would do everything to protect her!"

Amon said with a seriously determined face, seeing this,  Cobra was forced to believe his words. It's true after all, one would definitely come to love their soulmate and would want them to be safe. 

Though Cobra would never have had such a thought if he knew about Amon’s inside thoughts….

"I see…" Cobra clenched his jaws to not say the words, 'I agree, please protect my daughter!'. He had one more question. "This still doesn't answer my question, how do you prove you will give me the Sand Logia fruit? I refuse to believe Sir Crocodile's fruit isn't the one you stated."

Amon just snickered at his words. "Let me show you the real world…."

Snap!

Crack–Rumble!

Amon snapped his fingers as a loud rumbling sounded out from his body. His body became blue and white thunder could be seen flowing through his veins.

This was Goro Goro no mi's ability to generate [Rumbles]. Since the fruit's English name is the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, it would have been pretty strange if it couldn't do the thing it was named after.

By snapping his fingers, clapping his hands and in some other ways, Amon can release a destructible sound-wave. This can be considered a low-key version of Whitebeard's Tremor powers, very very low-key.

While Cobra jumped backwards, the King's guards ran into the room. 

"W-What happened?!"

They called out loud, while Amon's body had already returned to normal as he yawned. 

"Call Wyper in this room. Tell him it's me."

Looking at the room, which was filled with shattered glasses from the furniture and windows, the guards gulped. Nonetheless, they did what Amon asked them off with the King's gesture.

…..

Not long after, Wyper arrived and was ordered to show off his fire powers to the king. He did as Amon asked, while the king watched the scene with wide eyes. 

Previously, he has seen Admiral Akainu use his powers in the clip that Amon showed. He was quite shocked seeing such a similar power from Wyper.

Wyper was sent back and the king was left speechless.

Amon smiled from the other side.

….

"Ahem, the thing I want to say is, there are many similar powers in this world. Even many Logias are similar to each other. There is something called a Snow-Snow fruit as well, a lower version of Admiral Aokiji’s Ice-Ice fruit." Amon said as Cobra nodded with a sweat on his forehead. “Yes, even though similar logia elements can coexist, they are usually lower/higher versions than the other one.”

Cobra could only nod in understanding.

"What I want to give is a higher level than what Crocodile has to offer. If a fight between Vivi and Crocodile happens in the future, then Vivi will come out winning." 

Amon said with a smile as he picked up the grapes on the table.

Of course, he was bullshitting. The fruits are the same one. He would just kill Crocodile since he is a big inconvenience to his plans. At first, after killing Croc he wanted to give out his fruit to someone under him. But there weren't many people who were perfect for the fruit. Besides, the Sky didn't have a speck of sand in it. The powers of the fruit would significantly downgrade when used in the sky.

The best action here would be to kill Croc, take his fruit, give it to someone and send him/her to a sandy region, or the best sandy region in this world, Alabasta. 

However, even though sending someone here with this power is a good idea, there was a better plan. 

It was to get Vivi, who is supposedly an important character of this world from what Amon recalled from the manga's Reverie arc. Although it’s probably not something cliche like being the Ancient Weapon Uranus itself, she may be the person who can command the weapon!... Besides, it didn't hurt to have a princess as a wife. She can be later on used as a pawn who would rule Alabasta if the king ever 'accidentally' died. 

‘Well, if she disappoints me, I will just kill…’ Currently, Amon was laughing internally. ‘But I would prepare her to not disappoint me. It’s my speciality after all.’

Although morally questionable, Amon was good at manipulating little girls. So it was a good thing for both sides. It’s been a while since, along with Robin, he decided to take Vivi as his wife, nurture her as he seemed fit and use her to control the Sandy Island(s). 

Just like how is a “God of the Sky” with his lightning powers, she would be a “Goddess of the Desert'' with her sand powers. A perfect match…?

––

After some more words, Cobra was left with no other choice but to accept. It was too beneficial to him after all… Or so he thought. 

"Sigh… this is a request, please treat her nicely."

Corba said with a worn-out expression.

"Obviously Father-in-law! Oh by the way, my father's name was also Kobra. What a coincidence, Vivi and I were made for each other."

Cobra just sighed at his words. This was enough to prove his age as well. 'He's a child… Did I make the right choice? Only time will tell…'

Cobra shook his head lightly. 'At least it is a beneficial deal.'

Unlike his belief, all in all, the deals were on the sides of Skypiea the whole time. Skypiea can now bloom like a flower in this world, and will also grow with the limitless resources from Amon and Alabata. It won’t take so long for them to become one of the top forces.

Yes, Alabasta is gaining a lot from this as well, but isn’t that to Amon’s benefit?

After all, can Cobra still call Alabasta 'My Kingdom'? 

‘No, he can't. Because from now on, it’s 'Our Kingdom'.’

A perfect plan does exist. This was that plan.

"Then please… arrange things for the engagement."

«….★….»

[6 days later]

Days later, the Kingdom of Alabasta had invited its nobles and many other Royalties from different regions; because it was a day of celebration today!

Today, the Princess of Alabasta was getting engaged to one of the Seven Warlords! 

……

It was a grand party, and the people attending it mostly were in luxurious dresses. They were in small groups of 6 most of the time, while some were left alone.

The Skypieans were being treated as special guests, while everyone only knew them as the new ally of Alabasta. They were eating blue-sea food with excited faces.

In a corner, Isa was with Aisa. 'Did that kid really make the King agree in letting his daughter marry him? Just how much influence does a Warlord possess…?'

Isa was a little perplexed, yet felt proud looking at Amon. 'Although it's morally questionable, I guess they aren't going to do any intercourse before becoming adults. So it's fine, I think…' Isa smiled when she moved Amon looking towards her from far. 'Ah, he has become such a charismatic child!'

Isa felt pride rise in her chest, while Aisa kept eating sweets on the side.

…..

Meanwhile, a small group was gossiping...

"Haha! Wow~ who would have thought the dying country would ever succeed at smacking deals with 2 Warlords… More so, one of them is now the Crown-Prince of the Kingdom!”

"Yes, how lucky. It seems like Alabasta would rise again soon. Luckily my kingdom was always at their side…

“Heh, stop lying! Also, have you heard about their new ally as well?"

"Oh, them…"

“I heard they are a newfound kingdom. They gained the authorization to exist after Lucifer asked the WG."

"Apparently, Alabasta’s king especially requested Lucifer to do this bedding since this new Kingdom has a very close relationship with Alabasta… In payment, Lucifer asked for the princess’ hand in marriage… Or so the rumour says.”

People were talking left and right. The nobles of the kingdom and even kings and queens from different nations all across the world were gossiping. Among them, there was also the king of Drum Island, the island where Chopper lives. 

"Move away, let us take pictures!

Many reporters, most likely from Morgan's company were there taking photos. It was a big event after, all.

It won't take even a day for the whole world to know about Lucifer's relationship with Alabasta. Just as Amon wanted… 

…..

Currently, in the massive hall room, the engagement was being held. Though there were whispers about the Warlord being interested in little girls, and also how he’s a playboy and whatnot. Though they vanished the next second they were spoken. The person was A WARLORD after all.

Besides, this is the country's culture. They can't interfere with it.

Meanwhile, Vivi was having a hard time maintaining her composure. 'Eh, the dress is stiff…'

She was never in such a noble dress even on her birthdays. She was pretty confused at the development but her 8-year-old mind couldn't think of a bad thing here. 

'What's happening… Father said it's fine, it's not marriage. I already said I won't marry anyone!' Vivi silently shook her head. 'If this is not marriage, I guess it's fine.'

This was like a bond between her and her saviour, she felt indebted if anyone questioned her of it. 

Though by the time she gets old enough to realise what happened this day, she would be deep in incurable love. 

Going forward with this development, she had a smile on her face with Amon by her side. 

…..

Meanwhile, Robin was chatting with nobles and royalties from other kingdoms. She was trying to gather information even now. 

"Fu fu, the Wingless Valkyries are always on the side of innocents. If your country wants our help, just call through the dial." Robin said to the red-haired princess of Melromarc country in front of her. 

"Err–then, can I get an appointment with Lu–Mister Lucifer?" While the princess fried to get under Amon's skin, Robin rejected firmly. 

"You can talk with me about everything–Ah, it seems the main event is going to start. Excuse me."

Saying this with courtesy, Robin left from there as the girl just bit her lips.

Robin stared at Amon preparing to wear the ring given by Vivi, while he was doing the same.

She felt a little strange seeing Amon getting engaged more so with a little girl, but her other-side who was the one to actually suggest such a thing in the first place kept her safe. Though barely, she was still standing on her shaky legs.

"Fuuh… I'm just his made-up sister." Robin shook her head.

This was one of the reasons why Amon didn't go the 'Romance route' with Robin. Things would have been messed up if he did so.

Meanwhile, Raki who was standing just beside Robin had an expressionless face. She was just looking at the scene in front of her with her hollow eyes. "...Fuck."

"Not that… it matters." Nothing she couldn't handle. A blue-haired little girl wasn’t intimidating to her.

….

Far from her, Crocodile was also there. He had Mikita beside him who had a smile on her face. Amon has talked with her before, so everything was cool. 

Crocodile was dumbfounded when he heard the news of the engagement. He spent one day thinking about why he never thought of doing the same. Though it was too late now, he prepared himself more cautiously than before!

….

Under everyone’s mixed gazes, the engagement was done in a day. Amon was one step closer towards his initial goal!

A/N: Well, last chapter the Celestial Dragon wasn't supposed to be a good guy even after being saved. I messed up, but I edited it.
