"What?! You haven't seen him either?"
In the village of Shandia, Isa searches for Amon everywhere, but he seems to have disappeared without leaving a trace.
Jesus had been looking for Ammon all day, and yet, no one had seen him at all. Desperate, Isa fell down while wiping his sweaty forehead.
"This boy ran out of the village every chance since he got the call. I will wait until he returns, this time I need to be more resolute! But..." He remembers how Bob gave him a special call. Or where does a child get enough courage to go alone? "Bob, just wait," said Isa and lightly punched the ground.
«...*...»
On Amon's side, he's hunting giant lobsters. As it sounds surprising, even in this sea of white-white clouds, many types of sea creatures live without difficulty.
The Amon area is currently the territory of the Giant Lobster.
He was wearing a "Tribal Mask" that covered his entire face. Using the firing button, he slid on the surface of the sea. He is also armed with Burn Bazooka on his back while carrying many other types of dials in his trusty bag.
Usually, the robbers would only come to this area with their team. However, even they mostly avoid this area, because when they are dealing with one lobster here, it is likely that the group will also come out. Even if the robbers survived it, there would most likely be casualties.
So, the coming of Ammon here would be considered a foolish move by the other tribe members.
Obviously, Amon knew all this, yet he came here. Also unlike his relaxed personality most of the time, currently behind his mask, he put on a sharp serious look.
A few minutes passed as he continued skating, he had yet to find the lobster. Still, he wasn't worried about it, instead, he was playing with the button in his hand.
'Dial is more useful than I thought. Theoretically, if I have a strong shell and enough dial-making skills, then I can create a Reject Dial that is strong enough to make a hole in a monster like Kaido's chest.'
After that, Amon could not think of anything else. "...!!"
Suddenly, he felt something big right below him. Before he could ascertain what it was, right at that moment, giant lobster claws came out of the white water trying to catch him off guard.
Sensing danger, Amon suddenly stopped in his tracks, only dodging the attack.
*Sweal!*
His punch was so powerful that the sea seemed to be split in two.
The moment he saw that, he created a great distance between them. Sliding several hundred meters away, Amon sighed. "Flame.nearly."
Fortunately, Amon's [Haki Observation] was fast enough to sense the path of attack. Or, Ammon may have been shredded in two.
However, even though he had just dodged a seemingly fatal attack, he did not seem worried at all. Instead, he had a small smile on his face while looking at the giant claws in front of him. "... Looks like I'm having a big party tonight" Amon believes he can easily beat this lobster without any casualties.
And as his calmness illustrated, he moved without hesitation, rushing towards the lobster that was still trying to attack him from underwater.
Amon was moving very fast, but the lobster was still able to aim at him. As one of his claws charged towards him from the left, while the other came from the right.
Amon was almost caught, however, just then his speed got a huge boost!
*explosion! The explosion!*
Like a nitro, a powerful air pressure exploded from his shooter, as he dodged the attack without difficulty. This is Bob's special call that he negotiated last time.
Attacking his attack quickly, and this time, he decided to attack it himself! As he grabbed one of the lobster's claws, the whites thrashed. Then Amon would fail because of his strength, mostly because he did not have a strong ground-hold. However, before the lobster could do that, he pulled his claws very hard! So loud, that it makes a sound *Crack!* and was taken from his body. In the process, lobster fluid is applied to the rest of Amon's body, which Amon ignores.
The lobster struggled while making strange noises, but despite losing one of his arms, he did not seem to have given up.
Seeing this, Amon used the Milky dial to create a large boat made of clouds. Then he put a torn arm in it.
He's frugal. 'The claw is full of nutrients, so are the lobsters. I don't want to lose a single bite of my food ...' In between thoughts, while targeting the other claw.
Amon took off his Bazooka and placed it on a cloud boat while looking at the struggling lobster. Despite this, he still had his bag beside him. He could never overestimate himself.
Amon stared at the lobster underwater. He smiled cheerfully, as his eyes formed a crescent moon. "Then, master crab. Will you help me test my strength?" The lobster danced in pain, still, most of its body underwater. "Oh? Thank you so much~!"
As if triggered by his words, the lobster then jumped up, starting to float in the white water. Amon grinned and started to check on her. 'Hmm, the bug is bigger than I thought... It's as big as a small pirate ship. But, oh well, it's still a bug in the end...'
The lobster rushed towards him in full force, while Amon also prepared himself. It was used just to claw, to try again and again and grab it.
But with Amon's quick movements, he avoided everything. But those lobster claws are still painful for Amon.
"Your other claws are pretty annoying, but now that they're gone, this one seems happy to join..." Another attack was averted by him while saying this.
The moment another new attack came towards him at full speed. "Since I feel good today, I will help you take that one off as well!!" Saying this he caught the incoming attack with both hands.
*bom!* It creates a sound similar to a rock hitting an iron.
Then just like before, he pulled his claws firmly. By voice *Crack!* again, the claw slipped from his body. The lobster without its claws could do nothing but let out strange, terrifying sounds.
The fight was almost over, but Amon was a little disappointed. He sighed and shook his head.
Even though he was getting enough food that could feed around 200 people for a few weeks, which meant the entire tribe, he did not feel any sensation from this fight.
He lightly shook his head in disappointment. 'I'm not a battle maniac. But there was nothing I could do but hope for a good fight. Since I don't have a teacher, the only way to unlock my Haki Armament is to practice constantly and fight strong opponents.'
Ignoring the strange behavior of lobsters, he prepared for the final step. Swinging one of his hands back, Amon prepared a punch.
"...!" Before he could attack the lobster, Amon again felt danger beneath him.
Without thinking of anything else, he quickly charged into his attack.
[Soru]
Holy hooch!
With the help of the shooter button on his feet, along with Soru, there were not many beings faster than him in this Sky!
But, as he ran backwards, the claw he had just torn fell into the deep water. "THAT'S MY FOOD!" shouted Amon.
Although he was agitated, he still first increased the distance between him and the clawless lobster by several hundred meters. 'The attack was definitely not from the one without the claws, there was another one under the water.'
*Sweal!*
As he thought, another giant lobster jumped on the water right next to the clawless lobster. It is even 3 times bigger than the previous one.
Seeing this, Amon's eyes curved upwards, smiling. 'Other Crab lord ... and this one is at least 3 times bigger than the others..... more food!'
Without letting him attack first, this time, using his [Soru] and custom shooter, Amon rushed towards them even faster than before. But he did not attack any of them, instead, he quickly returned after retrieving the previous giant lobster claws from the boat.
Now, 300 meters in front of him, on the right side there is a bigger lobster and the left side is taken by a small one.
Amon decided on his target on the right, running forward.
*explosion! Booms!* His shooting speed is increasing.
Using [Soru] along with his shooting button, he quickly reduced the distance between them. Although his speed was slower, as he carried heavy claws. But it's still faster than lobsters can respond to.
When he was only 100 meters away, using an imperfect version of [Geppo], he jumped a few steps in the air.
*engah!*
Although the Shooter button could do the same, using Geppo frequently would help him perfect the technique himself. After mastering Geppo, only 4 other techniques are left to perfection among the Six Powers.
As he floated, he firmly gripped the slender end of the Claw as his fingers pierced through the hard outer shell, got into it and locked it in the process. After which, he swung the claws behind his back to gain a better momentum.
Then, as he was only a few meters away from the target, he exerted all his strength into the claw, smashing it into the head of the No.2 lobster!
*SHAA*
The claw pierced through the wind, as the speed of the punch created a great wind pressure, adding to the force.
*DUM!*
Finally, the moment the claw hit the head of the large lobster, it created a huge shockwave!
"!!!"
That one punch broke his shell in two. But he didn't stop there, and*Bam! *bom!* he keeps hitting the lobster to kill. This lobster is the reason he lost another claw, his food!
Before dying, the lobster makes the same sound as the unclawed one. When Amon realizes, 'Oh, wait. The one without the claws is still alive…. Let's get this over with quickly. I'm hungry.' Amon looked for a lobster without claws and thought.
He grinned coldly sweeping out of his gaze, and when he was about to rush over there.
"...!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
But he again sensed danger, and yet, unlike last time, this one was bigger. Actually the biggest in his 8-year-old little life.
It was as if someone was hitting his head with a hammer endlessly. Her young body had not yet fully gotten used to this sudden headache. But he had no time to worry about it now, as some quite large bugs had appeared.
Reverse! Reverse! Reverse!
One by one, the lobsters started to come out of the water. That's when Amon understood something. '... So the weird noise that lobsters make before they die... They're asking for help, aren't they?'
….
“Ha..haha..” Amon laughed nervously at the sight of 10 giant lobsters before him.
"Yes ..." Amon slowly began to pull out a call from his bag. "Isn't this a gold mine?"
Taking 17 dials out of the bag, he skillfully threw them to sea level near the lobster spot, in a circular motion.
*Ca-crack*Next second, the sound of frozen water is heard.
Confused, the lobsters try to move, and attack Amon, however, half of their bodies are submerged in water, we freeze. Because the water is frozen.
Amon laughed a little. "My first custom-made dial, [Freezing Dial: Sea of Ice]"
In the absence of a way for the lobster to move, Amon did not need to feel nervous anymore.
"This is the reason I really like my bag stuffed so quickly."
