Chapter 123
Title: What the fuck…?
….
"What?!"
Doflamingo shouted at Viola who was looking down.
She bit her lips and began to scratch her left arm with her right. "Really. I… couldn't read his memories since I fell asleep. It was a really wild night… so I was tired."
"Kek…" Doffy's veins popped up as he grabbed her by the neck. "Are you deliberately trying to anger me, Viola?!"
He wanted to cut her into pieces with his strings, but he was barely able to control himself. Her power is too useful to him.
In the end… he let her go.
Bam!
He punched the wall, creating a crater, and walked away.
"Stay away out of my sight for a few days, I don't want to see your dirty face." He didn't forget to add.
He was acting all grumpy. Even though, to begin with, it was him who laid Amon and herself.
Amon, who was flying in the sky 70 km far from Dressrosa laughed hearing this.
'I didn't think Mr. Doffy was a cuck when I first watched the anime… now, let's not get too caught up in the fun.'
Amon held himself back. He started to pay attention to a new piece of information.
He recently got a report. Doflamingo should have also gotten it, as he was also a part of the underworld.
″The rumour of a Dragon-Dragon fruit on Risky Red Island…″
This is a rumour that started a few days ago. However, Amon didn't care about it.
To begin with, just like this, there were previous scamming situations. 3 years ago, there was a rumour regarding OP-OP no Mi, Amon came from the moon for that at once. But in the end, it was all a scam. Amon killed all the scammers for interrupting his busy life.
This wasn't the only case. There were around 28 cases like this that Amon could recall that are worth remembering.
There was even one outrageous claim like ″Buy Pirate King's devil fruit with 5 billion belly!″
This is when Amon learned to not trust everything there is in the underworld. So he wasn't taking this one seriously as well, more so when he doesn't remember a situation like this from the show.
Still, he needs to be careful. Although there was no dragon fruit's appearance like this shown in the anime, anything can happen so he needs to try getting it.
Amon passed by some birds flying in the sky.
'However, since Doffy learned about this too, Kaido's troops might come. He is the only Emperor with whom I don't want to pick a fight. After all, he can come to my place flying and destroy everything.'
To beat Big Mom, Amon just needs to take out her three main homies. But to beat Kaido, who knows something terrible like 'Conqueror's Haki coating', Amon needs powers that he might or might not have at this point.
It was something to be cautious of. But since this time the rumour is coming from a reliable source, Amon needs to test it by going there himself, or better, send someone who doesn't have any affiliation with the 5th Emperor, at least to the general mass.
'Finally, it's time to meet him after 4 years.'
By him, Amon meant that man who he asked to set sail in the blue sea 4 years ago before leaving for the moon.
He was Gan Fall's son, Reo. Who wasn't seen participating in the 'War of Liberated Tribe'. The reason was simple, he wasn't there in the Skypiea back then, he didn't go to the 400th anniversary since to the outside world, he is someone who fled from Skypiea.
Along with Amon, only a few more people knew the truth.
'But before that, I need to finish some small jobs. Portgas D. Ace should be heading to Risky Red Island too… I should check the Thriller Bark once before moving on with more important things.'
Thriller Bark was changing.
Zzz…
«...★...»
Not far from Skypiea, there was an island floating in the white-white sea.
This island looked creepy from the outside, and it was creepier from the inside.
Yes, this was the Thriller Bark. The ship of Gecko Moria.
After taking over this land, Amon brought it into the sky.
The outside world didn't know that Gecko Moria was now dead. It was because people didn't know the location of the Thriller Bark and couldn't confirm his death. Even if they could, they wouldn't know who killed him.
So, just like Crocodile, Moria also died silently, unknowingly to the world. In the process, Amon's fame was interrupted.
'I will make a report myself…'
This would guarantee an increase in his bounty, Amon was all in for that. He was almost like an addict, wanting to see the numbers rise.
Lost in thought, Amon slowly went towards the artificial ship-island.
«...★...»
"Put that shit there, dammit! Are you fucking idiots?!"
Raki was having a hard time. Her brother asked her to rebuild this new island he brought to the sky.
It was quite strange how he was out there, bringing islands here, but she didn't question anything. It was not unnatural for her after she saw him taking over actual moons. Taking over islands only proved Amon was still left with human desires, and also the fact he was growing stronger.
'Stronger, huh…'
Raki laughed lightly. She knew better than anyone, there wasn't anyone who could beat her brother. So what was left to get stronger…?
Raki realized the answer to the questions without anyone telling her. 'Just because individually none can beat him, doesn't mean he is strong enough to individually beat everyone either…' She was aware of this, so she would help him by becoming his sword.
Raki was lost for a second as she gripped her sword…
Only to get back to reality after seeing some people messing up their works.
"Ahh, hey put those bricks in area-3! Not here!!" Raki screamed towards the Birkans moving bricks.
Amon decided to reconstruct this place, Thriller Bark, into a beautiful city. However, not a normal one, rather, a dead city. From the outside, it will look new, but only Zombies would live here.
Normal Skypieans are forbidden from entering here. Only Birkans and Shandians can since they are too loyal to get any smart ideas.
'The previous creepy state is good to scare weak people, but it won't work on strong individuals. However, after reconstruction, the seemingly new city would scare a few people after observing the dead state.'
That's what Amon had in his mind when he decided to change this place. A newly built park with no living beings on it is more terrifying than a horror-themed one.
Although some particular places will indeed be the same, like the massive mansion and the graveyard.
It's just that new houses will be built around it, kept out of the outside visitor's eyes. The reason is that the hostages are kept inside, the people who were hiding on the island before, one of Big Mom's daughters as well.
Unfortunately, Big Mom doesn't care about her, or Amon would have used her to threaten her.
Also, there is Oars Jr…. Amon is currently working on his DNA, but he was getting nowhere. He needs the research files of Vinsmoke Judge.

"Uh… so annoying."
Raki rubbed her temple while looking around. Yona was busy learning her new powers, so she wasn't able to get close to her. She cursed in her mind and started to pay attention to her surroundings.
Zzzz...
The sound of passing electricity entered Raki's ears.
Amon teleported directly beside Raki, his elbow resting on her shoulders, his body leaning on her.
"Raki, what's up."
"Oh, shut up. I'm busy. Why do I have to do your job, fuck?"
Amin laughed seeing her nonchalant reply. She wasn't even surprised seeing his sudden arrival.
"Endure it, endure it. Everything will be easy after we take over the world."
"Hm…?"
This picked Raki's interest as she giggled. "Fufu, yes yes. That's why I am enduring it. Bro, I want beautiful girls to bathe me after we take over the world. You won't stop me then, okay?"
Amon stared at her for a second before sighing. "Whatever~ you have your own dreams, I have mine..."
A short silence fell upon the duo. Raki bit her lips and smiled. 'I am doing everything for you idiot…'
"Anyway, where is Yona? I gave her a task. She should have completed it." Amon ignored her thought and asked.
Raki pointed at the main mansion. "Inside."
She then ran to a spot where people were lazing around. Amon walked towards the mansion while people bowed in his presence.

Shadows are supposed to follow their master forever. For that reason, when the master, meaning the body moves, the shadow also moves, and vice-versa.
If the shadow is forcefully moved, the main body will move too. This way, by cracking the neck of a shadow, Yona, who can touch shadows, can kill the actual person.
Amon asked Yona to learn this technique 2 weeks ago, as it came with the passive ability of the fruit.
Currently, Amon was standing in front of Yona, ordering her.
"Alright. Yona, make me punch myself.
Basically, Amon wanted another 'controller' other than him.
Yona nodded. She won't reject her Kami's will even if it was to harm himself.
She raised her hand in the air as Amon's shadow moved like a ripple in water.
"[Shadow Possession!]"
Yona then controlled Amon's hand to punch his face. Amon tried to resist the effect, but as expected, he was unable to.
Fwoosh!
Amon's hand twisted and his fist went towards his face.
Bam!
How, before it could hit his face, his other hand stopped it.
"Not enough speed. While controlling me, try to force me to use my fruit."
This was the main part. Controlling people Shadows to punch wasn't hard, but Amon wanted Yona to be able to control his devil fruit. To force him to use his fruit without him willing it.
Yona nodded… "Um, I will try. But it's hard…"
She tried it. Once.
Bam!
But the desired effect did not occur and Amon stopped the attack.
Twice!
Bam!
Thrice!
Bam!
Fourth!
….
Just like that, Yona tried 68 times.
She was tired.
"My lord… I need rest."
Seeing her sweating buckets and gasping for breath, Amon nodded. "It's fine, take a rest. You did a good job."
Yona fell on her butt as Amon walked towards her and sat beside her.
Yona had her head down, her face darkened and her eyes narrowed.
She couldn't do it.
If only she was a bit more talent-
"Don't push yourself."
Amon's hand on her shoulder stopped her haywire thoughts.
"...yes."
Although, she did say that, her mood didn't improve that much. To begin with, she didn't even improve that much over the last two weeks. This wasn't what she was good at….
Amon patted her head, reading her mind. "Calm down. You did well."
Truth be told, Amon was disappointed. But he didn't show it, that wasn't how one should treat his subordinates.
Ignoring his disappointment, Amon had a theory regarding this case. Maybe it wasn't about talent, but rather about intelligence.
"Red Dragon,"
Amon decided to explain his theory.
"You now ate a devil fruit, it's a new power that is different from your physical power, right?"
Confused, Yona looked at his face. But in the end answered: "Yes… it's like an outer force."
Amon stroked her hair. "Try looking at it this way, when you try to control the other person's devil fruit, your goal is to control their body, their movements. Then try controlling that 'outer force' rather than the body alone. Got that?"
Yona didn't answer. She was surprised. It was a new view on things, she praised her Kami's wisdom in her mind before standing up.
"My Kami…. Can I try once more?"
Amon smiled. "Yes."
…..
Amon stood a few meters far from Yona while she raised her hand in the air, the shadow of Amon moved according to her hand signals.
"<Shadow Possession>!"
Amon's hand moved, surprisingly, lightning was dancing around it.
!!V...vroom!!
It moved so fast that it broke the sound barrier and went towards Amon's face.
For a second, he couldn't follow its movement, meaning it was moving outside his speed and Observation Haki's limit! Something that should be impossible.
Bam!
Amon's fist landed on his face, breaking his nose.
He was thrown meters away, breaking the wall and landing on the graveyard outside, surprising many Birkans and Raki.
She quickly ran to him and looked at her brother's bloody broken nose and hand.
"Bro… what he fuck happened to you and your arm? It broke?!"
Amon smiled bitterly, which looked disgusting, and laid down.
He wondered, what the fuck just happened?
