Chapter 44

Title: Little Brother.

….

[A few minutes ago]

–Nico Robin Pov–

I'm currently walking through Whiskey Pe–!!

Suddenly, I feel a pull in my arm… While controlling my fright, I slowly looked back

"Hic–Hey, beauty wanna have some fun?"

Luckily, it's just a drunk bounty hunter.

"Fu fu fu. No, thanks. I'm fine. [Fleur: Clutch]"

*Crack!*

I rejected the drunk looking guy by cracking his neck and slowly started to walk out of that place.

I was walking through Whiskey Peak, around the mayor's house while making it seem like I'm just touring the island. People don't really question my behavior, as I'm pretty good at hiding and infiltrations like these.

The Grandline is dangerous, I came here 2 months ago to lay low for a while and I have finally decided to join a faction...

A few months ago, I was a part of a criminal organization in west blue and kept laying low until they were captured by Marines. After that, I started to ponder on which place I should go to next… And here I am, in the dangerous Grand Line, at Whiskey Peak.

It's been 2 months since I've been here, and for the last months, I have been keeping an eye on the guild that the guy named Lucifer is creating. 'Lucifer' is most likely a code name, like me, as I call myself, "Miss All Sunday".

I don't think this guild/organization has started to do any criminal act yet, though it's inevitable to happen in the near future. After all, the leader is a 15 years old teenager. He will fall for greed… soon.

Until then, I will be with them and keep laying low. Grandline is dangerous, I will return to West blue again after I gather some information.

Until then I will leach the group off like I always do. I'm cursed that any group I join will get destroyed… I don't mind that happening to a group of criminals.

Thinking such, I slowly start to walk towards the mayor's building–Which he must have obtained after killing the previous mayor.

[Present Time]

–Amon Pov–

"Please sit down."

After greeting Nico Robin, she sat down in the seat opposite to me. I just kept smiling towards her, while contemplating what I should do to her…

Nico Robin. Her arrival was unexpected, but she's been here for a while now. I found out she's been lurking around Whiskey Peak for 2 months or so, just around the time I started creating my Guild. People won't recognize her, as her bounty poster is from her childhood, and she's now 19 years old, with a mature body.

If I recall correctly, she should have only entered grandline in the year 1518. Currently, it's 1513, so 5 years early…

However, it's necessarily not for the butterfly effect which caused her early arrival. I mean, If I think it from her perspective, someone as cautious as her must have come to grandline before the year 1518 even in the canon timeline. But when seeing the dangers here, she must have returned back, before finally entering the grandline in 1518 for real.

Anyhow, that's not the concern here. Rather, the concern is… What should I do to her now? If I have to guess, she's just here to observe things. I can probably keep her here if I try a little, which I would… But she's still dangerous. If she leaves my guild and decides to join some other faction, it will be my life loss, so should I kill her now? Or make her into a mani–Oh, it's already been 7 seconds.

Ignoring the thoughts for a second, I look at her with a smile. It's better to keep her occupied with a conversation. "So, is 'Ms. All Sunday' your real name or a code name of some sort? Regardless, it's a very pretty name if I must say so myself."

She giggled hearing me, as I did the same.

"My, I wonder," Robin said as she leaned forward, placing her hands on the table. "Maybe it is a fake one, but I presume I don't need to reveal my real name, after all, bounty hunters are free to do what they want, or is it a different case for Mister 'Lucifer'?"

I just chuckle at her tone. So she already has the information that my name is a title given by the people? Well, her information gathering is a thing I'm looking forward to...

Going with her humor, I opened my mouth. "Of course, not. You can even name yourself, 'Devil Beauty', 'Demon Girl', or 'Demon Child' hahaha! I don't mind."

Robin's face seemingly froze for a second, but she soon smiled again. 'That's just a… coincidence. He said 'Demon Child' not 'Devil Child'–No. It doesn't matter. I should prepare things beforehand, I don't want to take any risk.'

That's what she thought, and yes, I guessed what she thought. It's easy to guess with her personality and the emotions she's currently experiencing and I'm sensing. I'd dare say, my Observation Haki is the best in the world, even if I can't see the future.

...Okay, it's decided. I won't kill her. She is too easy, her emotions are also predictable and she is very insecure about her identity. With her fucked up past, even a clown would be able to manipulate her knowing her every thought and mental state like I'm doing.

"Haha, ignore my bad sense of humor by the way." I scratch my back, as she calmed down a little. Then I picked up one of the forms on the table.

"You just have to fill this form to join." I handed her the form as she slowly nodded.

I kept smiling at her while she started to inspect the form intensely. I guess she won't die… at least not yet. Well… it's not that I would have killed her, to begin with, or I would have done that the first day I found her peeking at my back.

In the end, her main power… the knowledge to read Ponegylph is a must to me.

Yes, I do have the AI beside me, who said she possesses all the information on the Void century. But I can grant a 110% guarantee that she lied. It's pretty easy to see through as she said things like, how she didn't want to see the Shandians suffer. If so, then why not reveal them to me already? It's obvious, even a child would–maybe not, but I can easily see through her lies. Yet, I had to act as she wanted me to, giving her the false sense of control over me. Anyway, I will get to know the truth soon enough, she should be scared of getting a short circuit… shouldn't she?

Nonetheless, when I made plans in my childhood, I never considered finding an AI laying underground anyway. She's just a bonus who will have her own use. For now, I will just assume the AI doesn't exist and broaden my other ways of power by taking the opportunity in front of me of Nico Robin, the key to Ponegyplh.

I don't necessarily care about the history, but I do care about the 'Ancient Weapons' and the 'One Piece'. It could possibly be a strong weapon too. Maybe a dimensional traveling machine, then I can–No. Let's not mess up the goals here.

I quickly shook my head to shoo away these useless thoughts and focus on the woman in front of me.

«…*...»

–General Pov–

Soon, Robin filled the form and looked at Amon with a smile as bright as his own.

"I'm surprised how much your Guild has grown even with these types of restrictions," Robin said as she slid the form towards Amon. "But I guess it's not that surprising, as I myself accepted that." Robin said and released her iconic, "Fu Fu Fu!".

Amon also smiled at her. "Are you trying to entice me with that beautiful laugh?"

Robin still just giggled. To her, Amon was just a kid who was lucky to be born strong. If he feels attracted to her, she can use him properly and easily.

Amon tilted his head with his smile. 'For now, since I have already decided to keep her for me, I need to decide how I will proceed with things.' Amon thought. 'Romance route? Little brother route? Or a comrade route like canon? Or sex maniac route? Hmm, hard to decide. The easiest way would be to break her mind… emotionally I mean.'

Amon thought as he pressed a buzzer on the table. *BRRRZZZ* *BRZZZ!*

As it ringed, soon a random bounty hunter came through the door, *Kreak*.

"Yes, boss?"

Amin nodded towards him. "Bring some ice cream… Ma–Chocolate for me," Amon slipped his tongue and looked at Robin. "And Miss…?"

"I'm fine." Robin just nodded gracefully. "Please enjoy yourself." She said. 'I can't trust anything here.'

"Surely... Not." Amon refuted. "You are an employee under me, I have to take care of you," Amon said while looking at Robin's blue eyes as Robin sighed.

'He really is a teenager… at least he isn't looking at me with the eyes other people do. Or is he faking it…?' She thought as she smiled. "Alright, then strawberry for me."

….

A few minutes passed, the ice cream arrived as Amon kept talking with Robin. Talking a little too much, while she just nodded and replied now and then.

This whole time, Amon was just staring at her eyes, as it became creepy. Though Robin didn't mind much as it was better than being staring at her bosom and back as some other people do.

"Anyway, you will start from the Mid-Rank since you have a devil fruit," Amon said as he read the form. If someone writes he has devil fruit, he demands demonstration to not mess up like last time. "Please, demonstrate your graceful power to me," Amon said as he rested his chin in his left hand with his eyes looking like a kid deep in love.

Robin nodded, and crossed her arms, as she created an X position. "[Fleur!]"

6 more hands came out of her body, elbow, waist, and created a circle. She looked like a seductive witch with her soft smile.

"Is that enough?" She asked while looking at the mouth agape Amon. "...Hello?"

"O–Oh! Sorry about that," Amon nodded with a blush on his face and while creepy looking at her eyes.

"T-Then–Cough." He coughed away his 'nervousness'. "Then to celebrate the start of our work together, how about I buy you dinner?" Amon asked as he got up from his seat, walking towards her.

"I–"

"I won't take a No, by the way," He said as he walked towards her with a [Feather Rose]. "Consider it a rule only applied to you,"

Robin hesitantly accepted the Rose with a nod.

Amon then clasped his hands behind and leaned forward. He had to look upward for him to meet her eyes, because of his short height.

"If I had a big sister, she would have looked just like you I presume," Amon said as smiled at her sweetly. "By the way, tell your Inn owner that I said you don't need to pay for the room."

Saying this, he walked away from the room as Robin just smiled. 'He wants to form a brother-sister relationship with me? That's sweet, however I would be a stupid to believe someone like that existing in grandline.' She thought. 'I will go with the flow and take everything I want from him.'

….

Amon was walking to a hotel, humming lightly… "Soon may the Mittenman come~"

'How about number 4? The playboy little bro route?' Amon thought with a smirk. 'I would have used the romance way, but there are inconveniences at that route. However, on route no. 4, she might start having romantic feelings towards me as well. That way, it would only be a plus for me.'

Amon was trained from his previous life to not feel romantically attached towards others. HE trained HIMSELF to control that type of emotion, they were useless in that life, Even more so in this life.

Yet, that type of past experience along with his new 'flirtatious' personality can be a deadly combination against a person like Nico Robin who already forgot the emotion called 'Love' or 'Care'. Amon won't do something like declaring war on the World Government for her, even though it would earn him her instant trust. That would just be stupid, since he has all rhe time of his life to manipulate her as a 'little brother'.

In this timeframe of 1513, seducing her won't be hard at all. She is currently emotionally imbalanced, after all. Against her, Amon won't use the normal cliche 'You're important to me' card, rather,  he will use the hard to use 'I'm important to you' card.

In love, even the purest being can become corrupted, and the corrupted being as pure as a cherry blossom. Or at least in this world of fiction, it does. Doesn't matter what type of love it is…

"Mittenman come~"

A/N: Robin is a hard to manipulate character in the CANON, however, it is still 10 years before that time, people mature a lot in 10 years so, her current self isn't as mature as she was shown in the anime. Amon just has to trigger her locked up emotions to jump outside.
