Chapter 89
Title: Battle of the Elements and Animals!
….
As far as the eye could see, there was sand, this place was many kilometers away from the residential area.
Sir Crocodile looked in front of him, The Liger has finally arrived. He reconsidered whether he should make a quicksand hole underneath. But he felt it was too easy that he refrained from finishing him too early.
Although he was a little more cautious than his anime counterpart due to Amon's influence, his bad habit of playing with his enemies still prevailed.
"Oh, you useless Vice Admiral. You fell into my trap, you entered my territory!" Crocodile crackling. "Kuhahaha!"
“Kekek...” Unexpectedly for Crocodile, Liger also laughed. He knew what Crocodile was pointing at, but there was no way he would lose. "Crocodile, do you know what my devil fruit is?"
Slowly, the Liger's body changed. Strange tiger-like marks formed on his body while blond fur covered his entire body. "Wheel! This is Zoan, the ancient Zoan to be more specific."
He grinned as Crocodile frowned. "Thousands of years ago, there used to be certain animals. It was a mutant race, a mixture of Lion and Tiger. With his incredible strength, he got his name... Liger! Ironically, my dead parents chose a certain name for me. , and I also got this particular fruit." His smile widened as he spread his hands in the air. "Ancient Zoan; Cat Fruit Cat, Model: Liger!"
From the sky, Amon chuckles at hearing it. Throw's right. Even though the word from the name of his actual demon fruit never came out, he knew for sure that it should be like this. After all, he had seen it directly before. 'But ancient Zoan? Talk about a pleasant surprise.'
The body of the Liger grows in size and is completely covered in golden fur with signs similar to those of a tiger all over its body. He also had a head like a lion. In this form, he looked dangerous and terrifying. He clearly had the power to support that look as well.
His pupils were now red, glaring at Crocodile. Crocodile didn't think much, the man was dangerous. He raised his right hand into the air and...
Swing your arms down aggressively. "[Winter of the Desert]!"
The crocodile forms his right hand into a fast-moving piece of loose sand and then sticks it to the ground, poking it to the ground like a torpedo, splitting whatever it goes through, including the ground itself. But the Liger has disappeared from its place.
He suddenly appeared from behind Crocodile with his hands forming a punch. "Grandfather! You're not half-and-half, yeah!"
Before Crocodile could turn around completely, Liger's punch hit his face!
Bam!
Crocodile tried to turn into sand, but the punch hit him too hard. He flew a few meters away from the place, but he did not touch the ground. He turned into sand in the air and became one with the desert itself.
Liger stood there in silence, looking around him. The desert wind caressed her fur while the heat made her sweat a little. This was a bad atmosphere for an animal that had never touched the desert, resulting in a huge loss with the fur covering its body.
"...Did that coward escape after one blow–!!!"
His question was answered in the next second when a hand made of sand came out of the ground and grabbed his foot. He grinned and stepped on it with his other leg, but more hands came out of the ground and conquered it.
Within a few seconds, those hands wrapped all over his body and pulled him underground. The liger couldn't move at all. "Bahaha! Show yourself, coward!"
He was quite fascinated by how Crocodile did things. The crocodile took a big lesson from the time he was threatened by Amon with a fucking water bottle. He would not allow himself to be humiliated like that, anymore.
Soon after, in front of the Liger's eyes, a statue of human sand came out from the ground and immediately took the form of a Crocodile that had a cigar in its mouth.
"Look at your worthless face, do you think defeating me in the desert is possible?" Crocodile looked at him who was looking back with a smile.
"Oh, you think some hands made of sand can... KEEP ME DOWN?!"
Suddenly, his 9-foot body began to grow large and immediately turned into a 25-foot-tall giant humanoid Liger. "Have you ever seen the awakened devil fruit? You're not right? So here, you can be proud to see it now."
He was a monologue while freeing himself from the hand of sand. The crocodile growled at this, it seemed like he had to be serious as well.
With his hands preparing to grab the neck of the giant Liger, Crocodile leapt forward. But it was the wrong move.

Amon continued to watch the match while floating on his stomach, about 3000 meters in the air. He can still see everything clearly. Amon made some preparations and took some pictures of the match. This could be enough to prove that they died while fighting each other.
At first, he wanted to do something slowly and finish off Crocodile in a way that would not make the Marines know about it. Although doing such terrible things did not appeal to Amon, he had to be careful as he would be absent from the earth for a while.
First, he wanted to use the Liger to expose everything about Crocodile. Then when he's on the run, Amon will claim his head. However, this is not too bad either. This is through and through golden opportunities.
Eating the ice cream he had brought from the Sky a minute ago, Amon continued to gaze at the sight. Suddenly, Amon's sword gasped lightly as he patted it lightly. "Don't act like you have a life, I'll be paranoid."
While chuckling to himself, Amon looked back at the first moon himself with a sword. In the beginning, the sword was a disobedient dirt. It took 375 hours of Conqueror Haki's injection into that shit to tame it. Even now, it was an aggressive and stubborn sword like the other two family members.
"Oh, oh that's getting interesting."
Amon was more concerned about the fight there.

A few hours later, Amon walked through the desert with a pack of fries in his hand. After walking like that for a few minutes, Amon finally reached the sandy hill he was climbing on top of it.
He looked down, down at the two people who barely maintained their fight. Crocodile barely forms his sand attack while the Liger nearly falls to his knees, his body becoming extremely thin and dry, suggesting he falls victim to Crocodile's moisture-draining abilities. The fight was interesting because, somehow, Crocodile learned how to use weaponry as well.
Crocodile had not been weak at all all this time, and since he was less arrogant than before, he had at least reached this point. In fact, if he was not arrogant at all, he would probably win against that monster. Amon sipped the spilled juice as the heat ruined its taste.
Crocodile and Liger were still standing, Amon grinning. It's time to hunt. “Hei boys!”
Both Crocodile and Liger looked back.
….
“Hei boys!”
'What?! Korek?!'
Both of them had the same reaction of seeing the black-haired red-eyed demon staring at them with a grin while its hair fluttered in the air. "It's been a while, you two."
Although their initial reaction was indeed startled, they were currently plotting in their heads. 'Good, I'm his partner, he'll take my side.' 'Great, from what I know they are enemies, he will side with me.'
Unfortunately for both of them, they will get one big surprise.
Amon grinned and pulled out his sword. He would never think of carrying a sword all the time like this before. Everything changed after he got this piece of art. This is one of Tenguyama Hitetsu's creations.

Meanwhile, Robin in her room sat in her chair, staring at the ceiling with hollow eyes. “I failed again.. I'm really a Devil. Just for a drink, I hurt him.”
Her tears spilled despite crying for hours. A thought came to my mind, “...Should I kill myself.?” He immediately shook his head. He glanced at the whiskey bottles hidden around the room. "No, I'll never drink again in my entire life!"
She fell on the bed with her face first and cried while hugging her pillow. 'I won't rebel anymore. p-please come back.'
