[A/N: I fell asleep so couldn't post it on schedule. Anyway, here's the chapter]

[6 months later]

–Pov General–

A medium-sized pirate ship was just about to enter the Gates of Heaven. It had about 20 people on its deck. Fly a jolly roger with long black hair under a pirate hat, along with lipstick on the lips of his skull. It was named the Karakiri Pirates, they came here after passing through the "High Peak of the West".

….

"Huhahh... Well, we're lucky." A woman with long black hair said with a long sigh. Some time ago, it was quite dangerous for them to come through the "Summit of the High West", although it was said to be a convenient way to reach the sky. 

They were lucky that they had 2 demon fruit users in their crew, or some of them might have lost their lives.

{A/N: There is no information on what the "Summit of the High West" is, although it is confirmed that it is something similar to the convenient, yet dangerous route to Skypiea… I have to go with the general theory in that, according to him, it is a 10 thousand meter high mountain similar to an inverted mountain, and connected to Sky's Milky Road.}.

"Oh, Rai." A 30-year-old man said as he hugged the woman from behind. "With the power of your devil fruit and me, it's clear that we'll get out alive from that place." He said while kissing her hair. "But forget it, for now, we have finally reached the legendary sky island, Skypiea!" He said pointing in front of them.

As she said this, the black-haired woman Raia looked forward. As the giant construction with the name "Gate of Heaven" carved on it entered his view.

She smiled seeing this, however, a red hue also appeared on Raia's face, as she placed her hands on her hands hugging her stomach. "Hey..." He held it in a barely audible voice. "Crew friends are around ... Don't do this here, Rhanes ..." He said as he slowly started to release his hand, however, he only held it tighter.

"Tenang~'s... They're okay with this." The man named Rhanes said as he looked around. The crew just giggled from the sidelines.

Rai just sighed.

He came from a small island from the paradise side of the Grandline, but a few months ago, his adventurer side took over, and he decided to sail the sea. After that, on his journey, he met many people and now, he even had his own crew…

Looking towards the man behind her, Rhanes, a sweet smile splashed across her face. He was his first crew. They had gone through many life-threatening situations together. About a month ago they decided to come to the sky island. But before they began their journey, Rhanes had proposed to him.

His smile became clearer as he looked at the gate in front of them. She had accepted his proposal, however, she would only marry him when they settled down after visiting Skypiea.

So he is a little father, yet very excited to finish this journey and return to his home, marry the man he loves, have children and live a happy life. Just a few more days….

 «…*…»

The chief of the Shandian tribe was sitting at the checkpoint inside the Gates of Heaven. But he was not alone, as Gan Fall was also there while wearing his knight armor. 

Right now, they are playing chess. 

"Gan Fall, you come here often enough?" The Chief asked as he moved using his Queen.

After Amon took over, the first thing he did was to replace the gatekeeper of Heaven's Gate, a mentally ill old woman named Amazon. Since the chieftain had no duties of any kind lately, also because of Ammon's special decree, he was the one who mostly stayed here.

"Hmmm..." Also moving, Gan Fall chuckled. "Haha. You're bad at this, Chief." She said. 

On the other hand, Gan Fall, after he had lost to Amon, went and went to the remote part of Skypiea, where a small piece of vearth was laid. Now, he lives there while spending most of his time watering his lab garden and doing his job as a Sky Knight, a mercenary who protects travelers from outside dangers.

He chose this job thinking that Shandian would continue their attacks on random blue sea visitors, however, in the past year he has not found a single case of Shandian attacking outsiders. He was very relieved to see this, although he was also a little sad because he could not get much Extol (the Skypiea currency) because of this.

Now, looking for people to protect like knights in armor, Gan Fall flew with his Pegasus. But since he could not find anyone asking for help, he sometimes stopped here and played chess with the chieftain.

Although he was a bit wary if he had to actually talk to his former enemy who might still hold a grudge against him, or not. As time went on and he kept seeing her spend her time alone every day, Gan Fall one day decided to talk to her. Thus, the romance of two old men begins ...

In fact, unbeknownst to the two of them, the reason Amon specifically made the head a gatekeeper was because he had predicted this kind of development.

*Sweal!* 

Suddenly, seeing the turbulence of the ocean currents, Chief and Gan Fall realize the arrival of the pirate ship, causing Gan Fall to clutch his spear for a possible fight.

«…*…»

"Wow... Look at the two old men with wings on their backs." said Rhanes from the front of the ship, as he drove at a very slow speed.

Shortly thereafter the ship stopped in the middle of the gate as the water currents were barely here. 

Seeing the two old men at a place like a checkpoint, Raia went to the front of the ship. And shouted loudly, "Hey! Is this Skypiea's sky island?!" 

"What if we don't pay?" rhanes asked while crossing her arms. After all, they were pirates, what kind of pirates would follow the rules?

"Of course, you can't pay either, and we'll still help you get into Angel Island." This time, Gan Fall replied as Rhean's eyes sparkled. "But" said the Chairman. "You will be labeled as criminals and White-Err Berets, some people who look like marines will be all of you." This time, replied the chairman.

"Well?!" Ranes exclaimed in shock.

However, Raia stopped him. "How much should we pay?" He calmly asked the old men.

"Oh, good decision." The chairman answered immediately. "You have to pay 10 Billion Extols per person ..." said the Chief as Gan Fall frowned. 

Although Shandian had stopped attacking pirate ships randomly, they had increased the entry price of 1 Billion to 10 Billion…. "Sigh..." However, he just sighed. He is not God anymore, he should not interfere in this political affair anymore.

"T-Ten Billion Belli?!" raanes was very surprised. Even though they had demon fruit users, they were just a small pirate crew that had never even seen 500 million stomachs, let alone 10 Billion!

"Uhhhh! It's not the stomach." Chairman corrected. “This Extols. If you want to pay using Belly, just pay 1 million per crew.

Although Rhanes was still shocked because they had a crew of 20, meaning it still needed 20 million stomachs for them to enter, Raia began to think about her words carefully. 

His eyes twitched as a plan hit his head. "Ma..." Holding his hands back, he looked forward. "Is there a discount?" He asked the old men, as he took a seductive pose.

However, they simply ignored him, as the chief said, "Yes, you can get a 25% discount for the entire crew if there is one person who has the devil fruit. If there are two, then there will be a 50% discount%." She said. Then he took out a paper, or rather, a form.

"If you have the devil's fruit, then you should fill this form with the name of your devil fruit and the name of the eater..." Said. "You know, we Skypieans have a lot of respect for devil fruit users." Gan Fall looked at him suspiciously. "Err, or at least God did."

Although they did not understand what he meant by "God", they instantly became happy. Although 10 million was still a lot of money, they felt this was not much to spend on their last island.

Rhanes, seeing this immediately stated, "Yes, yes, we have 2 demon fruit users, give us two forms!" Raia frowned seeing this, is it safe to bring out the news that they are devils fruit users so easily?... 

'Huh... Maybe I just think too much.'

Soon, they took out 2 forms and filled them with the name of their Pirate crew, the name holder of the devil fruit, and the name of the devil fruit of the person in question. The woman named Raia has "Sharp-Hair-Sharp-Hair Fruit". Rhanes has "bone-Claw-Bone-Claw fruit".

After filling out the form, the chief kept a copy of the two papers and gave one to them. When they paid 10 Million Belli.

Soon enough, a Speedy-Shrimp arrives and pulls their ship towards the angel island.

….

"Well, it's rare for visitors who bring mystical devil fruit to come here. Even I think it's the first one after Amon took over." Gan Fall said, as the chairman, go to his desk and insert two papers into the [Fax Call].

The fax was then sent to Amon.

…..

*zzzt*

Hearing the voice coming from the [Fax Dial] by his side, Amon, who was wearing glasses, stopped reading the book with the inscription "Advanced Biology" on the cover. Immediately, two papers came out of the [Fax Dial], they contained information that had just been provided by the two pirates. 

Taking the paper from his desk, and seeing the devil fruit and its username, Amon grinned.

"Although the fruit is lame, I am not looking for the devil fruit for now, but rather, I am looking for a 'user', yet I have just found a 'user'." He said as he got up from his seat.

Time for some experiments.
