Chapter 115

Title: Plans for the Son of King

....

In Dressrosa, Donquixote Doflamingo was in a room with a few people in front of him.

"Alright then, I will go-inn!"

Machvise, a member of the Donquixote Pirates, the one with Ton-Ton fruit said to Doflamingo in front of him.

"Yes, be sure to avoid the 'golden dust', at all costs," Duffy said. "This time we won't fight, we would rather offer an alliance. The occurrence of another Emperor will change many things, so I need to act more cautiously."

"I understand-inn! Nihihihihi!" Machvise laughed reassuringly.

Doffy grinned. He knew Machvise wasn't strong enough to beat Tesoro, but this was sufficient. He would only be used as the medium to offer an alliance. Doffy believed Tesoro would accept it since he is going as far as sending one of his executives rather than just calling him through a snail.

'But if he doesn't, I will just keep hunting him down. Kukuku...'

Doflamingo chuckled while planning for the future. He felt that something big would happen, and that big thing would be surrounding him.

«...★...»

A few days later,

In a certain place of the New World, under the sea, a submarine could be spotted.

It was golden in color and had an 'S' written on its wall.

It was a submarine made of gold, Raki was riding it with two Automata accompanying her.

This was a submarine made of gold and sea prism stone, it was only partially made of sea prism stone, as Amon didn't have an unlimited supply of it. Still, Sea Kings stayed away from it because they confused the ship's presence with the sea itself because of the sea-stone.

This is the tactic Marines are yet to find, but Amon did knew it because of his canon knowledge.

This was one of the 5 Submarines Amon had of the 'S' model, and more are being made in real-time.

Suddenly-

Bereboop!

....

Inside the ship, Raki was looking outside the window of the submarine.

"...This beauty is on par with outer space."

Indeed, the space was beautiful. But it didn't have creatures swimming on it like the sea. To Raki, who has fought many battles in space, this was even more beautiful.

Humans don't even know the secrets of the sea, but they want to discover the secrets of Space? Ridiculous. But this is just proof of human greed.

"*ROOAAR*!"

Suddenly, hearing a roar and seeing a sea-king approach the ship, Raki gripped her sword tight.

"...Fuuh." But sensing something, she stopped midway.

The next second, many guns came out of the ship and shot towards the Sea King.

PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW!

"*Roa...r...*"

Bereboop~

In seconds, the sea king was killed, the blue sea turned red. It was a strong sea king to have even found the location of this ship, but it couldn't survive 2 seconds in front of these weapons. It just sank deeper in the sea.

"Ma'am! You can rest, I, Shortmotor shall take care of the thing."

The reliable Shortmotor had used the ship to kill the sea king.

Beside him, an automata with a similar appearance replied: "Indeed."

This was Ghost Motor, another body of Shortmotor.

Shortmotor seemed to become infuriated hearing this. He looked back with angry eyes.

"Hey, you idiot, why are you replying to me?!"

"Huh? It's my mouth, I say anything I want!"

The two robots started to fight among themselves, or it should be said one robot started to fight himself. It was as if a guy was using an alt account to fight himself. Truly lonely.

Raki endured it for 3 seconds before she looked at the two after her veins popped up.

"SHUT UP!"

Raki's scream almost shattered the glass of the submarine, this hurt the Automata's sound receptor mechanism too.

"A-Ah...!" The two robots took steps back in unison.

"You want me to tear you apart?" Raki glared at the two. They sure were brave to fight when she was enjoying the scene outside. "If you really want to, fight on your heads, aren't you two connected anyways?"

"A-Ah... that's right!"

Sighing, Raki went back to the sightseeing while the robots did as asked of them.

....

Amon asked Raki to visit Gran Tesoro and wreak havoc. She wasn't given any restriction on what she can do, so she was happy today.

She also wanted a bounty. Soon after Amon's bounty was revealed, Wyper got a bounty of 500 million bellies. Yet, she didn't have any since people didn't see her heroic battle, they were already knocked out by Amon's Haki.

So she was excited about this raid, she was feeling like a pirate today so she even wore an eyepatch.

'Hehe, I heard the owner of the Tesoro is a strong guy, and he even has strong subordinates.' Raki had a few sheets of paper in her hand. 'If I take down the richest man in the world, then I will surely get a good bounty.'

Raki giggled while reading the sheets.

They contained the detailed power of the people she will have to face. Though Amon deliberately hid the weakness that he knew by watching the Movie, One Piece: Film Gold. He wanted Raki to face a little disadvantage, she had it too easy these days.

Raki was someone who relied on her power most, but she wasn't dumb in any sense. She was confident but wasn't overconfident. When she learned that she can check her enemies' powers written on these sheets of paper, she didn't think it would hurt her pride by doing so.

"Gran Tesoro, a massive ship that is also the biggest entertainment city. It's a floating city that roams around the New World. It is a famous place for rich people, World Nobles, and figures from the underground world to spend their time on."

Raki read out loud.

Eternal Log pose pointing to the island is buyable from the underworld, and that's where Amon got one for Raki. The Automata were using it to navigate.

The ruler of the Tesoro is a smart and strong man, as it took Luffy's gear 4th to beat him. His Gold-Gold fruit was acquired from Doflamingo, he stole it. So Doffy is always after his head, though he was unable to touch him to date. For that reason, he was trying to ally with him, he felt going after his head won't be a good idea anymore. This alliance was supposed to form 3 years later if this was the original timeline, but Amon's presence changed things, though it doesn't matter much.

«...★...»

Same time,

"Whoaaaaa!"

"Master Tesoro!"

"Kya!"

In the grand blue sea, a massive golden ship was floating. This was the biggest entertainment city in the world, Gran Tesoro!

"Yoho! I'm here for everybody! 🎶"

Gild Tesoro, the owner of this ship, and the holder of 20% of the world's economy, was singing on a platform with liquid gold under it.

He was using his fruit powers to make a show around his foothold.

"Whoaaaa!"

People were cheering for him. To most of the people living here, he was a hero. But there were a few who knew the dark secret, they were forced to stay silent. Or they would have been sent to the prison under the ship.

Tesoro used 'golden dust' spray on the entrance of the ship. Someone who was showered by the dust would be under Tesoro's mercy because of his powers to control gold. Even a Revolutionary Army member lost to him, though this was confidential knowledge.

It was then—

"Muahahaha!"

A pirate ship came from the entrance. It was a random pirate crew, trying their luck at this luxurious ship.

A short and fat man was standing on the deck of the ship. He had his sword pointed towards Tesoro who was singing.

"Tesoro! I have come here to claim this ship! Hand it over! MUHA!"

Seeing Tesorom ignoring him and singing, he ordered his subordinates to shoot cannonballs, they did as he asked.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

One after another, the cannonballs started to go towards the audience at a terrible speed.

"KYAAA!"

The audience started to scream and some even began to hug themselves.

"OH, GOD!"

A mother hugged her children, scared that their life would end here and now

Pcchht-!

However, the cannonballs weren't able to hit the audience, because the liquid gold on the ship was floating and had formed solid shields that were used to block the canons.

"Huh?!"

The Captain of the pirates was shocked. He knew Gild Tesoro had the power to manipulate Gold, but he didn't think it was this strong.

"Kekh! Everyone, keep attacking! Don't stop firing the cannons!"

But he didn't give up, he has already come this far after all. He assumed Tesoro would surely run out of stamina trying to block all the balls, then they would attack.

However, his tries were useless.

Tesoro didn't seem worried or tired at all. He just formed barriers for the hundreds of cannonballs fired, and blocked them all. He wasn't an awakened fruit user for nothing.

"Everyone~ Prepare for the show! 🎶"

Tesoro grinned while the audience cheered his name. They were excited that their hero saved them, and the 'show' he was about to put on.

Tesoro raised his hands and jabbed it down in the air. "!"

Sha! Sha!

The liquid gold started to dance and made a huge wave comparable to the aggressive sea.

Thrash!

In a second, it crashed into the ship taking it down in seconds. The pirates riding the ship cried for help, but Tesoro pulled them under the gold-water ruthlessly.

"Yaaaah!"

Tesoro yelled to the mic as everyone did the same. The audience seemed ecstatic .

It was then that, a submarine slowly rose from the entrance of the Gran Tesoro, coming to the golden sea from the blue sea.

Bereboop!

Is Raki, who's been training for the past 4 years, strong enough to take down an awakened Gold-Gold fruit user by herself? Even more so, along with his strong and tricky subordinates?

Yes, she was more than capable.

'I am the strongest.'

«...★...»

Meanwhile, Amon was very busy.

He wore his diving suit and a futuristic invisibility cloak.

After taking all these precautions, he started to teleport towards a single direction, the direction of Big Mom's Kingdom... the Totto Land!

He was gathering the known Red Poneglyphs. It's easy to do with his speed and presence hiding abilities.

'Roger was able to steal the Poneglyph's contents from there, why can't I?'

In this world, there are 30 Ponegyplhs. Amon had 12 of them on him, or at least their contents. 11 of them were normal ones, containing useless history and 1 was a red Ponegyplh that he copied from the Zou.

'I also made Robin read the Alabasta Poneglyph... I have to say, it was a surprising discovery, the Pluton. Just... who would have thought something like that is possible.' Amon flew past a few birds. 'But it's not that surprising after seeing Shandora Hall.'

'Speaking of which, I should also visit the AI after I go to wano.' Amon contemplated how to travel to Wano and return safely. 'Or I can enter her circuits and try to hack her this time, it should be possible if I can brainwash human beings... hmm.'

'That's for later, first the Wano trip .' He can go there and return safely, but the problem is the proof the bitch asked for. 'I know something... Oden's diary.'

But if he steals it, Yamato will tell Kaido. And Kaido will be after him, and if news gets out about the diary which contains the journey of Oden who reached THE One Piece, other Emperors, Pirates, and the Government will be more interested in him. That will be too much attention for a single man like Amon who isn't strong enough to take 2 Emperors head-on.

For that, it's better to use a scapegoat. Someone who will bear his name of 'diary thief'. Surprisingly, it isn't a hard-to-achieve feat, a name came to his mind.

'Portgas. D Ace.'

Ace went to Wano in canon, but what about this timeline? He wasn't Fire Fist here. Amon hasn't been here for 4 years, so he didn't know much about the current world. But Robin should have collected everything about Ace since he asked her to before leaving.

'Ace is destined to die, even if he isn't Fire Fist anymore. The best scapegoat, the Pirate King's Son.'

Pirate King's Son being interested in the journey of Oden who traveled with his father would be a believable excuse to the old Emperors. They would go after him rather than Amon then.

'Hahh... so easy.'

Amon grinned while checking if he was going in the right direction using an Eternal Log pose. This proves everything can be found in the underworld, even the log pose of an Emperor's base.

Zzz...
