Chapter 133

Title: Planning!

….

–Amon Pov–

The first thing I need to do is get the blood sample of Hiyori. This should be enough to prove Toki's arrival here.

'I gotta say, the AI played me good.'

Laughing to myself, thinking how it might have been better to just have destroyed her, I sipped coffee from the cup in my hands.

Currently, I was standing by the seashore of Kuri, enjoying the sunrise. Wano was based on Japan, so the sun rising is a delightful spectacle here. I noticed some coconut trees around the place, they made me a little thirsty for coconut milk.

Fwooh~

While feeling the wet sand on my barefoot, I enjoyed the light breeze caressing my hair.

'It's already been 2 weeks since I've been here.'

Just like in canon where Ace supposedly spent a few weeks with people in Kuri, this time around, we have already spent 2 weeks. From what I learned, it seems Kaido's meeting with Doffy hasn't ended yet. I got the news from Viola.

I do hope Doffy remains smart and doesn't reveal my visit to Dressrosa.

Anyway, I can't waste more time than this. I waited because Ace waited, but now I need to move and force him to move as well. I am not scared of clashing with Kaido, I will survive even if I can't defeat him, but Ace will surely die.

'Losing a golden egg-laying goose such as him would be a shitty ending.'

"Fahh…"

I released a hot breath causing fog to come out of my mouth.

I am gonna take the biggest gamble on War of the Best 2 years from now on. It would be my proper advancement to an Emperor. Currently, I am just 'all bark no bite'…

Releasing another sigh while reminiscing over my past life without any particular reason, I spent my time in the seashore until the sun was above my head.

–General Pov–

"Ace, I will search for the whereabouts of Jack." Saying this, Amon had left an hour ago at night.

Since he already knew about Jack's whereabouts he just needed an excuse to use when asked meaningless questions. They would easily believe since to them, Amon's power is to teleport as that's the only power he showed up until now.

But this was not a complete excuse either.

Because as planned, Amon targeted Hiyori now. It was a little hard to find her in this country filled with millions, but since he's been looking for her since day one, Amon easily found her.

Unlike Hitetsu, Amon didn't have anything to chat with her about, so the best course of action would be to enter her room at night, get her blood, and exit the room.

So here was Amon now.

In the red-light district of Flower Capital, he entered the biggest brothel of Wano at night when everyone else was asleep.

….

Zzzz…

Amon teleported inside Hiyori's room, as he spotted something.

'Interesting.'

The first thing he noticed after entering the room was a person hiding above the ceiling of the room. He wasn't a thief, he was Hiyori's personal guard who didn't sleep at night for the sole reason of protecting her.

It was Denjiro, one of the 9 Scabbards of Oden who currently under the alias, Kyoshiro.

He was awake, sitting above the ceiling, his owl-like gaze was on the room, looking for any intruder. The moment he spots someone other than Komurasaki, Hiyori, he will jump and cut them down.

Luckily, being prepared for this already, Amon was wearing an invisible coat. He has got quite a few of them made before.

From the single copy he had when he first went to Birka to fetch the Goro Goro no Mi, he made many more copies after using it as a base with space technology. It is many times better than Sanji's Germa suit's cloak.

Amon, to not make any sound, started to float a few inches above the floor. He flew towards the sleeping Hiyori, who was covering her body with a futon and took out a syringe.

Silently sending electrical signals in her brain to control her sleeping body, Amon made Hiyori slowly pull her futon down and pointed the syringe on her forearm's blood vessel.

Chhht~

"Mmh!"

As the needle pierced her skin, Hiyori groaned, making Amon frown. He stopped and waited for her to get used to the needle, then seeing her eyes still closed he started to pull her blood on the syringe.

Ch-chht!

"Nnghh!"

Amon blinked hearing her clear moan.

It was weird why she was reacting this way, Amon was a little flustered, but he continued to slowly pull the syringe.

However, this small sound had alerted Denjiro!

"Who is there?!"

Suddenly, a sound came from above the ceiling.

Thud!

Denjiro, the owner of the voice, jumped down. He was loud enough to wake up normal people, but for someone who's been looking after Hiyori for more than 10 years, he knew she was a sound sleeper and didn't hold back his throat.

He looked at the heavily breathing Hiyori with narrowed eyes. The room was dark, but as a Samurai he was used to it. He couldn't find anyone around Hiyori, then what was her cause of groans?

He blinked. "A dream… a wet dream maybe?"

The thought instantly vanished the moment it crossed his mind. His Lady was already 22 years old, after all.

Although this might be considered a funny situation, it was not for Amon. He frowned and prepared to knock him out, however —

"Zzztt~"

A mosquito arrived at the perfect time as Denjiro's frown deepened… hearing the annoying sound the mosquito was making, he clenched his Katana's hilt.

"A mere mosquito dares to hurt lady Hiyori…!"

He took out his sword and slashed the mosquito once, cutting it into 7 pieces.

'...Damn, wtf.'

Amon chuckled internally seeing this.

As Denjiro turned around and jumped on the ceiling again, Amon quickly pulled Hiyori's blood while making sure she didn't moan.

After completing the job, Amon instantly flew thousands of kilometers and went to the Skypiea.

He put the blood sample in a concealed test tube and put it in a refrigerator to keep the blood fresh.

«...★...»

After completing the job, Amon's duty was to make Ace trigger using Jack's news.

Sitting on the seashore of Kuri, under the night sky filled with stars, the crew was enjoying a BBQ cooked by Amon.

Zhhh~

The crispy scent of burned meat made everyone hungry, especially Ace who was drooling.

"Your cooking never gets old, haha!"

In this timeline, the crew didn't have an official cook. So, normally Perry used to cook most of the time but her cooking was severely outmatched by Amon's.

She was quite jealous of it, and it was the first reason why she got interested in Amon. Her jealousy quickly vanished as she traveled together with him and she rather started to bear a liking towards him.

This time around though, she didn't want to let Amon enjoy all the praise and made the hot sauce.

"Fufu, you like it? Wano spices are top-notch, the best I tasted. Just put some in your mouth, will you?" Perry laughed and declared.

Amon's metallic mask was versatile and can be removed part by part. Like he can open the mouth part while still wearing the mask.

He did so, opening the mouth part of his mask, and put the piece of meat dripping in the yellow sauce.

"Mmm, it's good." Amon chewed on the meat. "I guess it does make the meat taste better, good job."

Seeing Amon approve of her, Perry felt her heart flutter. Amon's characteristics weren't the type to make people fall in love with him even if he was quite handsome. Generally, people would be interested in a one-night stand, but since this time Amon was manipulating a woman willingly, there was no way Perry wouldn't have fallen for him.

"Haha… Right…" She avoided eye contact and ate her food, almost choking in nervousness.

Around an hour passed by as everyone enjoyed the food. O-Tama had joined the party midway she was also eating her food while sitting on Amon's lap.

Suddenly, while stroking O-Tama's hair, Amon asked Ace "Ace, I found out that Jack is on the island beside Wano, Onigashima."

Ace stopped chatting with the crew and looked at Amon seriously.

Amon continued. "Kaido and his right hand, King, is out of here for a while. If we want revenge, this is the perfect time for that."

Ace frowned. "Why? I want to defeat Kaido too, I don't want the people here to suffer."

Amon scoffed at him internally. This is why he didn't like people with hero syndrome.

"ACE!" Amon yelled loudly, making Ace flinch.

"Tell me who is stronger, you or me?"

"Huh?" Ace was surprised as he blinked. He was surprised why he suddenly yelled, but he decided to pay attention to the question for now. If this was the past him, he would have instantly said he is stronger, but he has seen Amon hunt down dozens of sea kings easily, which he couldn't do.

"You… are stronger." Ace said with a sigh.

Amon nodded. He made his eyes sharp, like a person giving a motivational speech.

"Yes, I am stronger, and that me is saying I can't beat Kaido!" Actually, Amon might successfully beat Kaido, but Ace doesn't need to know that. "Mister Portgas D. Ace, are you perhaps assuming your hero complex will help you another time?"

Amon continued in a harsh tone. "Wake up, Ace. You already lost one of your companions, you were lucky to even survive. Don't risk your companions' lives anymore. Think about it, you said you have a brother right, imagine what he will do if Kaido kills you."

Ace sighed as he recalled Luffy's smiling face. "He will come to take revenge…"

Amon nodded, his eyes grim: "Yes, he will. You see where I am pointing at? Kaido won't spare that kid, Luffy his name was?"

Finally, dejected, Ace nodded. "I understand…" It was quite interesting how someone like Ace accepted the suggestion of someone else. Ace bit his lips. "I get it..."

The crew was shocked as they looked at Amon with admiration, in truth, they didn't want to fight Kaido either. But they knew their captain was stubborn, so they were mentally preparing themselves for a death battle.

Ace ignored their gaze and said, "Then what should we do, Mister?"

After a brief silence, Amon's eyes went back to the amicable look as he laughed.

"It's good to see you understand, Ace. Don't worry much, if you want to save these people, just get stronger." He said. "Remember, strength is everything. Kaido is able to trample this country because he has the power to do so."

"Anyway," Amon created pressure around him as he grinned. "Now, what we need to do is to invade Onigashima, the place where Jack the Drought is."

It was time. Time to see what the diary of Oden had.
