Chapter 130
Title: Wano (1)
….
In Onigashima, Wano, Reo had reached Kaido along with Jack.
Currently, in a dark room, he was standing in front of Kaido who was currently busy drinking booze. Beside him, All-Star King was eyeing him, but there was no hostility shown by them.
Kaido started to pour sake in his mouth like water, then released a breath. "Gah!"
After wiping his lips, he looked at Reo, who didn't seem intimidated by his presence, a rare sight to withhold for someone meeting him for the first time.
In truth, he wasn't scared of death. There are only a few people who Reo was scared of.
Kaido made a serious face and looked at Jack. "Jack, so this is the Kid you were talking about?"
Jack nodded. "Yes, Kaido-sama. I tested his strength, he is strong enough to be a Headliner."
Kaido stared at Jack's face and his bandaged hand, before moving his head to silently observe Reo.
"A Skypiean just like that new kid," Kaido mumbled which Reo couldn't hear.
"You have a Dragon fruit…?"
To begin with, Kaido sent Jack to bring the unknown Dragon fruit so that someone from the crew could eat it, so even though some inconveniences happened, it was worth it considering Reo joined.
Reo nodded.
"Woroworo!" Kaido grinned seeing his unshakable nod. "King, go test him. I can sense it, he has the potential to become one of the 'Flying Three'."
Unlike 4 years from now, there were only 3 members on the "Flying Six" of the Beasts Pirates, so they were using this name.
Jack's face darkened hearing Kaido's command. This meant he didn't have enough trust in his word, he felt dejected.
Saying this, Kaido went back to drinking while King stepped forward. "I will do as you wish, Kaido-sama."
King is an alien, with the mixed ancestry of the winged race and another one. He has a life span longer than normal humans, and he is the last living person of his race that was exterminated nearly a century ago.
With his black wings, one can already guess he had a connection with the winged race and they aren't wrong.
King stopped in front of Reo. Reo was currently 7"7', King was more than 25" so it was a funny sight how Reo was looking up to meet his eyes.
He looked at Reo briefly before walking past him.
"Follow me, I will finish this soon. Kaido sama and I will leave a few days later, we need to prepare."
Fah
King turned into his dragon form and flew off, Reo did the same 5 seconds later and followed behind him, going towards the sky. Needless to say, this was an aerial battle.
«...?...»
'In a few days, Kaido and King will leave. They might or might not bring Jack with them, meanwhile, Queen will guard the prison in Wano.' Amon thought.
In canon, Kaido was supposed to be out when Ace came to Wano, where he met Yamato. But things changed a lot, Kaido wasn't supposed to leave in this timeline. Amon changed a lot so big and small changes were inevitable.
However, luckily with Amon's connections, he was able to cause an 'emergency', so Kaido and King will be gone for now.
If Jack stays behind, he will go for his head this time. For sure.
Zha!
Amon's thoughts were cut by the sounds of sea waves.
'Let's focus on reaching Wano first, we are already close. I can sense Kaido's presence from here…'
Amon thought as he looked at the 'reverse fountain' in front of him.

Not so long after, the Spade Pirates reached Wano! It was all thanks to an Eternal Log Pose brought by Amon.
Their ship didn't crash like canon since Amon was acting as a navigator. With his 300 km radius sensing powers along with his thunder powers, it was needless to say he was around the level of the best navigator.
After climbing the reverse mountain with the help of some fish, they reached Kuni, or more accurately, Amon led them there.
He needed to meet Tenguyama Hitetsu, who was in Kuni and take the Kitetsu II, Nidai Kitetsu from him.
«...?...»
"G-Get out of here, pirates!"
The first thing the Spade Pirates encountered after reaching the land safely was a bunch of people armed with sticks, cooking utensils, farming equipment, etc.
In front of the crowd, a man wielding a sword stood with a little girl hiding behind him. The man was wearing a dark tengu mask over his face that had an extremely long nose. More importantly, his most distinguishing feature was the pair of wings behind his back. The wings looked like those of Birkans.
"We surrender, put your weapons down."
This was what Ace said while having his hands in the air. He didn't want to fight them, they looked very pitiful. He might be in a heat of revenge, but he won't change his personality all of a sudden.
His crew members did the same along with Amon.
'Let's let this play out smoothly, I don't want trouble before Kaido leaves.' Amon thought while the nervous villagers started to tie him up.
«...?...»
"Food!"
"They have food?!"
"L-Look, there are fresh vegetables too!"
The inhabitants of Kuri were chattering among themselves inside the ship of Ace, robbing and stealing the food supply of the ship.
They hadn't eaten proper food for years. So the sudden supply of food from this pirate ship made them strangely happy and emotional.
Shamelessly, they started to loot the ship of Spade Pirates. They took out all the food there was, some even tried to grab each other's food and a small commotion started.
The captured Spade Pirates were silently observing all this. Ace had a small smile on his face, but that soon disappeared as he made a serious face. 'That Kaido, he dared to do wrong with these pitiful people!'
From Amon, he heard about Wano already.
Although it is supposed to be the country of Samurais, people are forbidden to even wield swords now. All that was because of Kaido and his Beasts Pirates. They are even monopolizing the food supply.
Ace sighed. He noticed some of his crew members were already trying to free themselves.
"Guys," they turned their heads towards him. "Don't."
Ace told the others to wait until their eating is done. He didn't want to bother them now.
Amon, who had his arms tied behind his back, accepted and closed his eyes.
'!!!'
His Observation Haki's range widened and went to the sky above Onigashima.
In the sky, Reo and King were fighting.

Amon opened his eyes and sighed. "Fuuuh…"
It was a one-sided battle with King winning.
'All-star King sure is strong, but his fire ability is weaker than the pureblooded ones.'
Still, Nergigante was pretty much resistant to Fire. The biggest weakness of Nergigante is lightning, Amon can probably kill Reo in his Dragon form with 700 million volts, or at least make him half-dead.
That's how weak he was against lightning.
'So other than me, his natural enemies are Big Mom and Kaido,' he also recalled the Minks with electricity powers. 'But their output is too weak to hurt him.'
Amon decided to not think any longer and looked at Ace who was sitting beside him.
"You seem calmer than I thought?"
Amon talked in his natural voice. It took them around 3 weeks to reach here from Risky Red Island, so they were pretty close now. Mostly because Amon used his charisma to get closer to them. He also let them know about his voice, saying he was making it sound like that to be cautious.
Ace, still looking at the happily eating people with a smile, nodded. "Kind of."
Amon nodded lightly with a, "Hm,"
Beside Amon, Perry asked a question. "Hey mister, how old are you?"
Amon looked at her and stayed silent for a while before saying, "You have already asked 48 times, I have answered 48 times. The answer is the same now— I won't reveal it."
"Stinky." She said while showing her tongue.
Amon ignored her as she giggled. She wasn't important at the moment, her importance would start after Spade Pirates join Whitebeard Pirates. She will be the brainwashed spy.
Amon had mixed feelings about talking to this already 'dead' girl like her.
"Anyway," Amon cracked his neck. "They look like they are about to be finished, let me free myself first. I need to talk with that red-masked guy."
Zzz…
Saying this, Mr. Fool's body disappeared with a bolt of lightning.
People, at least Ace, won't suspect him as Sky Emperor, the famed user of Goro Goro no Mi since countless devil fruits produce electricity upon activation. Such as Tesoro's Gold-Gold fruit and Toki's Time-Time fruit.
….
"M-mom…"
After teleporting himself away from the ropes that were binding him, Amon walked towards the busy crowd who were still busy cleaning their plates.
"M-Mom, give me a little more, I haven't eaten for 5 days!"
"You are only 8, you don't need to eat that much!"
A mom and her young son were quarrelling because of food.
'This is the face of this world under the mask of "battle shounen manga", huh.' Amon thought as he walked closer.
Even when he was just standing beside them, they didn't notice him. They were busy eating.
However, one person did notice him.
"Wait," Amon suddenly found a sword on his neck. "Don't make a move. How did you free yourself?"
It was Tenguyama Hitetsu, a man with Birkan ancestry.
But more importantly, the creator of Kitetsu Sandai and the current holder of Kitetsu II, Nidai Kitetsu.
Amon looked at Hitetsu, their eyes met from under the masks. ''If I get that, I will have a full collection of Kitetsu blades.'
Along with Sandai Kitetsu, Raki was using Shusui; One of the 21 Great Grade Meito and a powerful Black Blade. Famously wielded by the legendary samurai Ryuma. Amon got it from Ryuma's zombie from Thriller Bark.
Currently, he is searching for a suitable shadow for Ryuma and also a way to heal his dead body back to normal.
'With him, I will have my own Oden.'
Ignoring the thoughts, Amon raised his hands while people finally noticed him and backed away. "I am sorry, I was just thinking that I might as well cook some food since you all are eating them raw, it's kind of disgusting, to be honest."

A/N: Compared to any other Emperor, Amon's army is very weak. However, with the help of Shadow-Shadow fruit, things will drastically change.
P.S: 1500 Powerstones for an instant bonus chapter! (The starting will be with 1500 from now on because life got too busy, but I have to add this since I promised to return 2 weeks ago)
