Chapter 37

.....

In the blue sea, on the island of Jaya, Mont Blanc Cricket was sitting under a tree alone, looking up at the sky.

Every month, around this time, the bells that ring reach the blue sea and Cricket waits for that sound every day. 

2 years ago, the pirate ship Cricket coincidentally arrived in Jaya, the island where Noland supposedly discovered the City of Gold and the island that many members of the Cricket family failed to find. 

Standing on the promontory where the Golden City was supposed to be, Cricket decides to accept his fate and find out for good if the legendary city that Noland discovered exists. However, his crew disagreed with his decision and left him alone on the island. Left alone, Cricket decides to stay in a house near the headland and begins diving alone into the waters around Jaya, swimming back and forth in his quest for the golden city.

Maybe it was a boon or maybe he was just hallucinating, but during the 3 months of continuous diving, Cricket heard the sound of a bell ringing from the sky. 

At that time, Cricket was convinced that Sky Island existed, and he was also convinced that one of the streams sent the Golden City into the sky as well, which basically made itself a sky island as well.

 Now, without doing anything, he was just enjoying his life here while diving deep in the sea. This is her new romance.

*DIE!*

"Oh, it happened!" Cricket raised his ears, with a smile on his face. 'Ahh, how I like this voice.'

*DIE!*

*DIE!*

«…*…»

Before he left the sky, Amon visited Nola, the serpent, and went to the Golden Belfry and rang it as he did every month. After his departure, Wyper will be the one to ring for the next 2 years.

Then without wasting any more time, Amon finally decided to leave with a big bag on his back. Although this did not affect his wings, as the bag was placed on his back perfectly. The bag was full of buttons, and he decided to eat all the mangoes to keep the bag from gaining weight...

*blu!*

Amon flapped his wings and flew. He's heading upstairs right now. As he ascended, he glanced at the barely visible moon, as his mind wandered. 'I always wondered if the moon also had oxygen since my ancestors lived there.' Amon thought as he rode at a speed of 350 km/h. 'I don't think I'm going to learn it anytime soon ...' Amon then began to slow down his speed.

….

After a few minutes, Amon stopped and looked down. 'Will I become fried chicken if I dive from here?' Amon thought while shrugging his shoulders. "Guess the time to find out."

*DOLL! AHH! AHH! AHH!*

Filling his wings, Amon lunged!

*fwoosh!*

"AAAAH! YEAH!"

120 km/h.

"Faster!"

230 km/h. Ammon passed through the white sea.

"Yeah!"

370 km/h.

"Fuck up! It's out of control!"

Amon then slipped his hand in his pocket and pulled out a few buttons. He used the first one, like a seatbelt, and Amon wrapped a rope around his chest and clicked the button. [Special Jet Player]

*vhoooo*

Like Ironman's 'Repulsor beam', compressed gas exits the dial and its speed begins to decrease. He would've been pretty bad if he didn't have the wings to support his flight.

"Faulia... Nice." Amon's speed was still increasing, however, which was now within his control.

400 km/h. Amon passed through the white sea, while the wind changed his face strangely...

"!!!"

500 km/h.

"Fuck up! Fuck those! Fuck those! It's hot!"

610 km/h. Amon could now see the blue sea, for the first time after a while, his eyes widened with excitement and nostalgia. 'It's been a lifetime ...' 

For the first time in his life, Amon felt a familiarity, ironically, from something he had never seen with his own eyes in the world before.

Amon then clicks another button, as a hanging glider like Aang from the Avatar is formed from it. [Special Call: Hang Glider]. Between them gripped the glider skillfully and moved his hand towards the button on the glider.

After clicking the button on the glider, a small wing came out of it.

*DOLL!* *FA!*

As the parachute opened itself, Amon also spread his wings, and along with the glider, he skillfully changed the direction of his flight, jumping up rather than down in the process. 

*Fwoooh*

Soon, the speed was stable. It was still fast for a normal person, but for someone who had fallen at a speed of 600 km/h until now, it was not that fast.

"Maybe I should do this often.it's a great exercise for my skin and endurance." Amon said as he decided to descend slowly, at a speed of 100 km/h.

….

A few minutes later, Amon could see a black dot in the clear blue sea below. He could guess what it was, as Skypiea usually flew around Jaya. 'So it must be Jaya…'

Without wasting any time, Amon tried to see things down there, probably more than 6000 meters below. He used, [Haki's Observation], but it didn't work, because he could only zoom in a little.

However, he had a more flexible form of observation for situations like this.

[Haki Observation: Eagle Sight]

Amon's sight was suddenly magnified, as his eyes could see a clear map of Jaya from about 6000 meters above the Sky. "..." - ".Although the next moment, his vision returned to normal by itself. 

"Well, I just need to practice a little more. But I think it worked." He said while confirming that the island below is really Jaya.

He decides to meet Cricket, a descendant of Noland. It was just a thing that would be done by anyone in his position. 

….

|–Cricket's Pov–|

It has been several hours since the last bell rang, I am now stretching my body to prepare for the next dive. Unlike me who used to dive all day for the first three months, today I do it just for fun, so I also take care of my health. After all, I have nothing to prove myself as I already know about the Golden City that is in the sky … 

Maybe I should find a new adventure soon. Should I visit the sky once? Hmm, that's the thing to think about - huh?! WHAT'STHAT?!

Is that a bird in the sky?!

Suddenly, I saw something like a humanoid figure flying close to this place? A frown appeared on my face, as I prepared my mind for a possible battle. Although by grandline standards, I am not that strong, but I still have a 25 million Stomach reward in my head. Also, as a man who values self-esteem, I don't really back down from fighting.

I could see the creature coming towards me, as I saw it was actually not much different from a normal human. Teenager-sized, jet black hair, red eyes, huh?

The next moment, with astonishing speed, enemy(?) it arrived several hundred meters in front of me, as its figure entered my eyes. It was difficult to determine his face, because the sun was right behind his head ...

"Hello,"

My previous mindset was completely shattered and shattered into pieces as strength left my hand? 

"Hello, blue sea citizen, nice to meet you."

Unexpectedly and surprisingly, the short-haired lady who looked like an angel in front of me bowed slightly towards me.

….

|–General Pov–|

"Haha! So you really are a man!" Cricket laughed out loud, as he hugged the angel, Amon's shoulder while he held a glass of sake wood in his hand. "First you said you lived in the sky, and now you say someone with your physique is a man? Hahaha, the world is a strange place."

It has been a few minutes since Amon introduced himself to Cricket because he was quite friendly with him. 

"By the way, if you're really from Sky Island, do you know anything about a city made of gold?" Cricket asked as he took a sip of sake. "Well! Don't worry, I'm not testing you or anything, I'm really asking! Ahaha!"

Amon also placed his hand on his shoulder, and the two of them started chatting as if they had been friends for decades. "Yes, that's actually where I live! Hahaha, I'm a Shandian you know, a proud direct descendant of Kalgara!"

Cricket's face froze as he nearly dropped his glass.. "You're serious?"

"Hm? Yeah, do you happen to know about something?" Amon looked at him curiously.

"Er..." Cricket took his hand off his shoulder. "Do you know anything about Noland? I heard he was friends with your ancestor Kalgara..." 

Amon blinked and smiled. "Obviously, Mont Noland is like a legend to us, Shandians!… We respect him just as much as Kalgara." Amon said as he took a sip of sake, as he almost vomited. "Bff!"

"W-really?" Cricket asked in disbelief, his eyes widened and slightly wet.

"Yes, why should I lie? Mont Noland was an honored guest of Shandian, his descendants were the same."

While Cricket wiped away his tears, Amon looked at him with false confusion. 

As tears mixed with grunts fell from his cheeks, he looked up at the sky, as he imagined the face of Noland in the clouds. "Ohhh... Noland you're an asshole, in the end you're not lying." Cricket smiled brightly as his snort and tears fell to the ground. "Those bastards kill you, those stupid bastards call you a liar! Ahaha!" He cried and laughed at the same time, as Amon smiled from the sidelines.

Afterwards, Cricket explains many things to him, explaining how he is a distant descendant of Noland, and how Noland is now known as a liar who was beheaded for his lies.

Some teardrops also formed around Amon's eyes when he heard all this. He rubbed his eyes with his fingers. "I don't believe the great Noland met a tragic end.in a sense, we are the reason for his death" Amon said as Cricked patted his back.

“Do not worry, young man. I'm sure he's happy to see our reunion from heaven.” Cricket said as he rubbed his eyes. 

She was really happy for what happened today. He wanted to shout, yelling at the people who called him and his ancestors liars, "Look! Lookie! Noland didn't lie! Look at this winged teenager, he's from Golden City!" He wanted to shout it out loud and tell the whole world that Noland was not a liar, and he was not a liar either!

….

Afterwards, the Crickets treated Amon better than before, while they both hunted animals to eat. While eating, Cricket finally asked him something that provoked his curiosity. 

"So, Amon, why did you come to the blue sea? I've never seen Skypieans here before you ..." Cricket asked as he poured his mouth over the beef, while Amon also did the same. 

"Well,*tuk*. The priority is to find Mont Noland's descendants, and then learn about the world in the blue ocean!" Amon said as he filled his mouth. "I think the first one's done, so now I'm going on an adventure."

Amon loved his food, as it was free, so he ate everything he could. 

"Hmm, so. So what do you want to do now?" As he asked, Amon looked at him confusedly. "Well, you see here, it's not suitable for you to be a merchant or an adventurer. You have to choose between being a pirate, a marine, or a bounty hunter."

"Oh, you might not know much about them, let me explain-"

"No problem." Amon. "I've decided before, I'll be a bounty hunter. I plan to visit, "Whiskey Peak", the paradise of bounty hunters.

….

'Vaporizing, this is getting boring.' thought Amon. 'I hope he has the pose of the immortal Whiskey Peak, or at least the way to get it. Otherwise, this visit will be useless.'

Author's Note: 

Many of you do not realize why Amon did not take Goro Goro before coming. 

Simply put, Amon was not confident enough to fight against 3000 Soldiers. Where 2500 people are proficient in Observation. Yeah, he's strong, but he won't take any chances. He almost died last time from overconfidence, and he would make another mistake like that? No. gabe. Never does. 

According to the canon, Enel would have gotten his fruit when Amon was 16. He is only 12 years old now (yes). It's 4 years away. Yes, the butterfly effect may have changed things, but Amon knew EVERYTHING about Birka until now. Obviously, even when he trained last year, he did order his people to do something for him, and with the fact of the reincarnation of the Devil fruit, his worries were lessened.
