One Piece: Reborn and Skypiean

Chapter 128
Title: Savior...
....
"Ancient Zoan— Ryu Ryu no Mi, Model: Nergigante." Amon sounded light. "You may not know this Dragon species, but it's powerful, in my opinion."
Reo, the person who was the recipient of his words, seemed very excited. "Dragon Zone?"
The dragon was the strongest among the strongest.
Eating this meant that he would be stronger, many times stronger than now. That way, he would be able to protect his people, sacrificing himself for them more efficiently. It's a big power boost.
But what confused him was his other sentence.
"But what do you mean by joining the Beasts Pirates...?" Amon nodded at his question. "You want me to infiltrate the Pirate Beasts from the inside?"
"It should be so."
"But..." Reo looked hesitant. "What about All-Star King? She looks like... how should I say it, 'Evil Skypiean'?"
"4 years ago, it was you who said to be careful with the All-Star King."
This question made Amon laugh. "Meh, don't think about it too much, I was just paranoid. All-Star King is not some kind of spiritual enemy of ours or anything."
After visiting the moon, Amon learns some secrets. The secret about the King race, it was not something special or supernatural. "I'll tell you about it later in the day, now eat the fruit and go fight Jack, help the Spade Pirates."
"Ah.. okay."
continued Amon. "Even if you don't win, Jack will ask you to join him, accept on condition that he let the Spade Pirates live."
Amon needs Ace to survive, he will then take him to Wano and steal Oden's diary from Yamato, eventually putting all the blame on Ace's shoulders.
'What will cause this...? Kaido's participation in the war is best.' Amon made a sadistic smile on his mind. This time, he would not let Shanks stop Kaido from going there.
"OK. but," Reo had one more question. "What would I answer if someone asked me why I did this?"
"In Jack's case, just tell him you want a good fight. In the case of the Spade Pirates, tell them, 'friends from the underworld' Deuce asks you to help them. Add a few more lines of your choice, don't mess up"
A brief silence ensued while Amon continued to grin.
Reo understood everything and nodded.
"There's another question?"
He shook his head. "No," he then saw the fruit in his hand. "Then I'll eat this..."
«...★...»
Masked Deuce is an orphan. He lived a life full of tragedy. Not expecting his turn for good, he tried to commit criminal acts many times, even though he was arrested and beaten by people many times, he did not give up.
He did not even think of changing his lifestyle, but he was satisfied with the results. He has some rules and follows them, so for many children and parents he is a hero.
Doing this criminal act, one day he broke into the underworld. During his time there, one day he met a kind man, the age of the man was unknown to him as he always wore a mask and wore black clothes.
This kind man helped her, gave her a new job, taught her about the world. So for him, a man is a figure he never had, a father figure.
4 years ago, his 'father' disappeared without telling him. He thought he must be busy, so he waited.
While she almost believes that the man left her for good, she is back. He explained he was in a critical situation and he would also be busy like this later.
Deuce is quite happy that she didn't leave him, so she apologizes to him for doubting him.
The man said, "Because I'm going to be busy from now on, you should try to enjoy your life. Be a free bird, be a pirate."
That line triggered it. That was how his journey began, after hearing this from the man, he met Ace and started traveling with him.
That man is Amon.
«...★...»
Ace's body trembled with Deuce's body on his arm, he had already stopped breathing.
"WHY DO YOU HATE!"
Ace shouted as his Conqueror Haki leaked out, making many people faint on the battlefield.
"Kehk." Jack is shocked to see him using the Conqueror Haki, in the end, he decides he is too dangerous to be left alive because he saw the death of his friend.
Jack, the Mammoth, rushes towards Ace with his feet pointed towards his small head.
Ace didn't even flinch at this, he didn't know why, but he felt he could beat him.
Ace swung his fist towards Jack, making him surprised to see black thunder swirling around him.
'That ...' Ace's punch left a trail of purple-black lightning. 'Just like Kaido-sama.he coated his attacks with the Conqueror Haki.'
This was the talent, the talent of the Pirate King's son. He was someone who studied the Haki Armament layer a week ago, yet he was able to accomplish something like this, even though he did it unconsciously.
Jack was suddenly startled, this attack would even injure Kaido, so he would not be fine after receiving it.
In this timeline, Blackbeard may need more effort to catch Ace.

–Reo Pov–
The fruit feels disgusting, but I can swallow it.
I could feel a new power within me, as if another being had entered my body. I was able to exchange bodies with the creature, thus giving me unimaginable power.
Zha Zha
My mind was cut off by the sound of the ocean waves.
We are now close to the beach. I can say with my observation Haki that Mammoths have been watching us.
Time transformed.

"YAHOO!!"
Hearing Ace's spiteful cry, Jack frowned.
He had gone too far to retreat now, Jack raised his front leg and decided to block the attack with his front leg. His bones should be strong enough to block this novice attack.
Jack's front legs and Ace's fiery red fist collide with each other!
BAM!
The explosion!
Jack did not have the Conqueror Haki, but his weaponry was strong. He used it to fight Ace's punch. The steam has warmed up to form a flame again.
The crack!
Jack's elephant front legs cracked like glass, blood dripped down, his face distorted but he didn't fall back.
"YAHOO!"
Ace also used his other fists and punched forward, Jack stopping him with his other front foot.
BAM!
Another impact, the island shook, Ace overstepped his limits, however, Jack noticed something important.
'He is unconscious?!'
Yes, Ace was unconscious, but he was still struggling.
His crewmates and some awakened Beast pirates were shocked to their core.
But Jack saw this as an opportunity, he swung his trunk!
Bam!
Ace was hit from his left side and flown several meters in a matter of seconds. He concentrated all his strength in front, so his side was weak. Jack took this opportunity.
Ace fell a few meters from the spot and lay unconscious, his fists shining back to normal.
"Huff... What is his identity?" ask Jack to himself. This is no ordinary pirate.
"It's better to kill him here and now." Jack decides.
He's a threat, he's left his front leg permanently injured.
In anger, he walked towards Ace who was unknowingly lying on the ground.
Looking down, he lifted his leg to smash Ace's small skull under his feet.
He put his foot down, but.
It was stopped by the black arm of a savage beast.
"It's enough."
Hearing a deep voice, he looked at the culprit as his eyes grew. That look reminded him of the dragon he had just killed.
Then who is this...?
"I've come to stop this fight."
It was also a Nergigante, but he had some changes in his body, he had four black wings instead of two ...
"On behalf of my lord."
It was Reo.
«...★...»
Amon was surprised that the Dragon Reo form gave him 4 wings, after all, the All-Star King still maintained only a pair of wings on his transformation.
'Being half human wings and half of that race, wouldn't King also have to defend 4 wings if Reo did?'
It was something to think about, but without any path, Amon stopped thinking.
'Perhaps because he is not pure blood...?'
'Or did he not use 4 wings because his Zoan body was small?'
Amon ignores thoughts about King and Reo and focuses on Ace.
Amon was sitting on the border of the volcano while eating a snack. He looks very unhappy.
'Ace. The gene is too good.'
Over the years, Amon has tried to coat the Conqueror Haki on his body as if Armament as Kaido and Luffy did in the chapter 1010 manga, but he was unsuccessful.
"Once again, why."
Always facing the border, Amon was a little angry. Even if it doesn't matter. 'I can do better than that, I can coat the Armament with my lightning. It can be used as an alternative to this.'
First of all, the effect of the Conqueror Haki layer made a trail of black light. Amon could have made his lightning turn black using Armament.. The effect should be the same, or at least similar, right...?
'These strings ...' Amon threw his snacks at the volcano behind.
Kaido said, 'Even among the High Kings, only a select few can do it.'
So does that mean Amon wasn't elected?
Frankly, he doesn't care.
'I need to train more Conqueror Haki. Maybe I don't have talent like Luffy and Ace, but I'll learn it.'
People say the Conqueror Haki existed from birth, one cannot obtain it any other way. Amon doesn't believe that's the case...
Amon knew Haki's best teacher, Rayleigh, who never said the Conqueror's Haki could not be learned in later life. This means there is a high chance that Kiado's statement is also false.
Maybe 10 more years? Or 100 years? Or 1000 years?
Amon did not plan to live a short life like a human, his obsession with absolutes would not allow him. This meant that he still had a chance to learn this.
'Nothing is impossible.' This was a saying in the previous world, but that statement was truer in this world.
'I need to get Raki to train her... Maybe she can open it too?'
Shaking his head while laughing jokingly, Amon then focused on the fight, not before bringing some snacks from the nearby island of course.

Bam! Bam! Bam!
A fight ensues between Jack and Reo who have turned into dragons!
His four wings attacked Jack without giving him time to dodge, and since all his wings were pointed, it was enough to cripple his defense.
"Aragh!" Jack was slammed with the tail of a dragon and thrown several meters away.
He slammed into the ground but managed to get up not long after.
"What's your identity..." Jack was curious while asking Reo.
"I just want to fight you, I don't have a grudge against you" Reo replied with what Amon had taught him. "Also, I'm pretty angry you killed one of my dragon fruit users."
"Huh...? You mean that other dragon guy?" Jack asked while standing straight. His eyes suddenly turned cold. "So you want revenge?"
Reo noticed it and laughed. "Not really, nothing serious. I'm just mad you killed another dragon skin like me. If he lives, we can practice together." Reo used some of his artificial lines. "Now, you must satisfy my fighting lust."
After a moment of silence, Jack also laughed. He doesn't hate this guy anymore.
He decided. "Alright, I'll give you a fight, but you have to promise if you lose you have to join the Pirate Beasts, how does it sound?"
Reo, the dragon, grinned. "It seems fair enough."
Saying this, he rushes towards Jack, this time Jack re-utilizes his experience and familiarity with his Zoan form. Although Reo is a good fighter, which gives him the strength to last a long time against Jack, now things have turned around.
....
Amon smiled faintly. "He's kind. He changed the atmosphere around Jack with just a few words."
It's very interesting. "Let's wait until he's defeated.he may already have a plan."
....
! _
This time, Jack was more aggressive. He is very strong and easily clamps Reo to the losing side.
Up until now, he might have had the upper hand because his Zoan as a whole was stronger than Jack's, but now, everything depended on experience.
After all, Reo in his human form was somewhat weaker than Sarong Oden, and Jack could defeat the two of them without much difficulty. Although Reo was many times stronger now, he did not have enough experience to control that power.
! _
"OK..."
Leaving another punch at Reo, the breathless Jack opened his mouth.
"Since you're about to join, why not stop here? I am the clear winner."
Reo nodded, though hardly. He breathes heavier than Jack. "I understand."
Saying this, Reo began to change back. His small stature of 7"7 feet made Jack amused as he also changed back.
"But I have a request, take this as a gift for a beginner."
Reo demanded, Jack nodded after a moment of silence in surprise.
"Let the Spade Pirates be ..."
"..." - ".A wrinkle appeared on Jack's big face. "No way, their captain is too dangerous."
A short silence later, Reo chuckled. "Why? I think you are so strong, why are you afraid of them?"
Jack was angry. "Look at what you said, I might change my mind."
Understanding provoking him won't work, Reo makes a change of plan.
"OK okay I'm sorry. But this is a request... I have pride, as a fellow dragon fruit user," continued Reo. "As you already feel, my fighting style is quite lacking, meaning I'm still a beginner with fruit."
Jack sat on the ground, he was tired. "Yes, it should be. Or I should use my full strength."
"Yes, that's what I said," Reo said. "From where I come from, we see things like this as a spiritual connection."
"I believe me and that guy, eating fruit at the same time there must be a reason, so I want his friend to leave. It's like seeing your little brother's friend. I just don't want them to die, it's a selfish request. ."
Evidently... Jack is still against it.
"You have a strange view of things, people with strange wings even though the wings are white in addition to the black I know," Jack commented.
He glanced at Ace. He hardly breathes, his friends are the same. 'They might disband the crew .. that's okay I guess.'
Jack is stupid. He wasn't very good at making decisions, so obviously he would listen to this promising beginner. He might be one of that group with six promising talents.
"This wish, I will grant it."
Moreover, for a person with a severe inferior complex like him, granting such a request made him feel at ease with himself.
Reo smiled. "Thank you, I will be loyal to the Beasts Pirates and Kaido, to you as well." Smile widens. "Jack-sama."
Jack notices how he doesn't call Kaido 'Kaido-sama', but calls it that way. He feels proud.
«...★...»
Jack is gone, Ace is still unconscious. Reo manages to deliver a small piece of paper with a few words on it, which Birkan sends from his crew.
After reading the newspaper, the Spade Pirates quietly lay down or sat on the ground, before the footsteps of unknown people made them raise their heads.
He wore a face mask and a shiny black jacket reached his knees, he stuffed his hands into his jacket pocket. Just like Deuce, she had blue shoulder-length hair.
The Spade Pirates recognized him. Even without the small message left by Reo, they had already heard enough about him from Deuce to know who this was.
"Hello," The man's voice was hoarse and cold, almost like an old man, but his partially visible skin made the thought disappear.
"You probably already know. I'm stupid, Mr. Fool."
It was an alias, aka Amon.
'I hate hiding like a mouse, but Kaido is my biggest problem to date.'
