[A month later]
–General Pov–
"Yawn…" In God's Shrine, Amon woke up from his sleep with a yawn.
Looking across the glass window, as the morning sun was shining in the blue sky, Amon got up with a smile.
He then went to the bathroom to brush his teeth, as he heard someone ring the bell of the shrine.
*Ding~*
Amon went to the door, and opened it, finding Isa with a 1.5 years old Aisa in her embrace.
"Kami-sam-"
"Gimme my sis!" Amon cut her in a grumpy voice and snatched Aisa from her embrace. Then turning around, he again opened his mouth. "Have you come here to cook food? Remember, I won't eat if you keep calling me 'kAmI-sAmA'." Amon said as he went to his room, and sat on the bed with Aisa, while he turned on the [Tv Dial].
Isa just giggled from the sidelines.
At first, it was convenient at how all the modern-day machinery had a dial version in the sky...
Currently, Amon lives in the God's shrine alone while the other shandians live on the '2nd floor' of the cloud-plate stuck on Giant Jack, Isa also lives there.
The ruins on the '2nd floor' weren't as much destroyed as how he remembered from the anime, indicating that Enel was the one to destroy it mostly. So the Shandians now occupy that place after a little reconstruction, until the Main Ruin gets fixed!
"Yayaya… Bwother, play some cartoons." Aisa's childish voice rang in Amon's ears, as he changed the channels. Amon did as she wished, as both of them started to watch cartoons while Isa cooked.
Amon at first, was surprised by these modern technologies… but after what he found underground, the secret place even below the main ruins, Amon doesn't get surprised because of these things anymore.
The place where the Shandians currently live, the Giant Jack's 'second-floor', it's a golden version of ancient Mayan Architecture, from his previous world. While most Shandians live there, the 'God's personal guard', the top 5 strongest Shandians lives in the same branch of Giant Jack as God's Shrine, though the buildings are different. Because as personal guards, they have to be prepared to run to God's aid at any moment.
The God's Shrine, the room Amon is currently in, is better than even the best 5-star hotels from his previous life that he saw online. A place he never saw in real life… but now he lives at a place better than that… Amon just shook his head.
«…*...»
[A few hours later]
*Bam!*
*Bam!*
In the upper ruins of the upper-yard where Shandians were currently removing the clouds from above, a few hundred meters away from there, a giant snake was seen fighting against a child.
However, the child was proving wrong the fact that size is everything, as he was easily standing on his own ground.
The child, Amon, was currently standing still on his spot, as his legs were shackled to stop himself from instinctively dodging any attacks. Amon was trying to get his hands on [Armament Haki] by taking hits head-on, while also replying with his own punch.
"Sssssss~" The snake, Nola raised her head and looked at Amon while making snake sounds. The next moment, she shoved her head towards Amon, trying to completely crush him!
Seeing her head coming towards him at that speed, Amon flowed strength in his fist as much as he could, as he punched towards her.
*BAM!*
A medium-sized crater was formed on the ground as his fist and her head clashed.
…..
A few minutes had passed, and Nola was sitting on the ground, rounding herself up. While Amon was sitting against her body, taking a rest while drinking a glass of natural mango juice.
"*Sssp* Ahhh…" Amon released a satisfied sigh. "Living in a forest where I can eat anything I want, that is life," Amon said as he started to drink the juice from the glass using a straw again.
Previously, Amon just trained with Nola by dodging her attack and performing his own on her. However, after last month's incident, he changed his ways. He realized he depends too much on his speed that he ignored that he might get caught off guard, or meet someone faster than himself. Realizing that, he now shackles his legs to not dodge the attacks, and instead clashes with his own attack head-on. From that, he also believes that his Armament might awaken soon.
Finishing his juice, Amon then patted the giant snake's body. "Well done Nola, take a rest." He said as Nola made snake sounds. As Amon again patted her feeling her emotions. "Nah, don't worry, I'm fine. Actually, I'm also stronger than ever too." He said, talking with the snake. "Now take some rest, if you don't, your health will go down, and you will soon become so weak that you won't even keep up with me, let alone be able to help me train any longer." Amon smiled, as Nola danced her head.
Soon after a few minutes, Nola's body limped as she fell asleep in that place.
It was then, when Amon also noticed someone coming towards him from a few hundred meters away. "!!" Confirming the identity of the person, Amon also rested his body as he sloped his back on the grassy ground.
"Sigh…" Amon sighed as he remembered what happened last month. Soon he shook his head, removing these useless thoughts. Ignoring those thinkings, Amon then reckoned what happened after he got out of the altar.
After finishing the pirate duo, Amon went out in the forest, as he sensed the Shandians searching for him all around. After encountering them, and learning about the situation on Angel Island, Amon had rushed there.
Then while ordering the Shandians to not hurt anyone, many Skypieans recognized him as the doctor of Shandia who saved Koin's life a year ago. Learning he was the God, they were surprised, as even Conis and her family were surprised, though he was too occupied to care about that fact at that time.
As for what happened to the pirate duo , he revealed how they tried to steal holy treasures from the ruins, so he tried to stop them. People might not have believed that, if not for his bent hand and purple throat.
The Skypieans didn't mind some random blue sea pirate, who tried to harm their land dying at the hands of their God. Even though they had an indifferent relationship with the God in question, to rather take blue sea criminals, they still took their own species' side. After all, even though they haven't fully accepted him as God, he still used the money that he received from tourists to improve the whole Skypiea after all...
Then after ordering the Shandians to fall back, the rest of the Karikiri pirates, for being accomplices of the criminals and also for disrespecting God, were also punished. The punishment being, to work for the current God for 7 years. They accepted it without any choice, so currently, they were living and working like slaves for the Shandians who were reconstructing the main ruins of Shandora.
Currently, after a month later, Amon was laying on the grassy ground while watching the clouds pass by in the blue sky.
Soon, the person he sensed a while ago came to him, as he looked towards her.
"What's up, Raki?" He said. "Today is the day for Braham, Duy, and the others to return, right?" He asked towards Raki, who was wearing a tribal mask.
"Yes, just now, they have returned and also brought massive amounts of information from Sky island, Brika." Raki said as she slipped her hand inside her pocket, taking out a few sheets of paper.
"Hmm, alright," Amon ignored her mask and said as he accepted the papers. Soon he started to read them while laying on his back, as Raki just stood there.
Every God of the upper-yard rules 4 islands besides the 'vearth' land. So does Amon, the current God. All 4 sky-islands are surrounding the upper-yard from each of the 4 directions.
In North, the island which was shown in anime, officially named as Angel Island-1. This island has around 30 thousand inhabitants.
Then in the South, around 70 km away, the Angel island-2. This island has around 20 thousand inhabitants.
In the East, around 90 km away, the Angel island-3. This island has around 18 thousand inhabitants.
While in the West, around 130 km away, the last Island where the God's ruling reaches, the Angel island-4. This island has around 22 thousand inhabitants.
Overall, Amon rules over around 90 thousand Skypieans!
However, there were many other small islands around, which are considered part of these main 'Angel Islands', Amon also ruled over them.
But there are also the ones where Amon's ruling doesn't reach, like around a few thousand km away, the sky-island Weatheriea. The same place where Nami spent her days during the time skip.
Likewise, Birka is also a sky island which Amon doesn't rule, as it is around 700 km from here. This is the island where Enel and his priest came from, though after destroying it completely.
Even from the anime, and after asking Koin and her family, Amon only learned that Birka is a place where the warrior race, Birkans reside.
Obviously, Amon wanted more details… and that was easy, as infiltrating Birka wasn't hard, since they allow visitors from other sky islands.
Amon then smiled reading the information collected by Duy and others. A few months ago they were sent as a group of tourists from the other sky. The Birkans accepted them as honorable guests since they were the people directly under the God of another island.
Amon then started to read out loud. "Sky island Birka is a place where warriors live. But they aren't a tribe like us Shandia, as they are a true lineage of warriors. Currently, there are around 3000 Birkans on that island, and each one of them is a warrior. However, even though their number is short, they are strong enough to take over the other islands around them if they wanted to.
Yet they don't do so, as even though they are a race of warriors, they are also of religious and pacifistic ethnicity.
They also have a shrine, which is heavily guarded by the strongestBirkan, called the priest. However, if anyone tried to infiltrate the shrine, then all the 3000 won't think twice to kill them...
Because their God lives in that shrine, though the God isn't a person. Rather, their God… is a Blue Fruit with encrypts. They seemingly worship that fruit, and many of them gave away their life protecting that for many years...
They call it the Seed of the Thunder God's tree, and they believe one day the Son of the Thunder God will be born from there."
Amon chuckled as he read the last line out loud.
'Seed of the Thunder God's tree? Lame.' He thought mockingly. Yet his chuckle stopped abruptly. 'However, this is a problem too… if they really are as strong as Duy wrote, then just attacking them and taking Goro-Goro no mi won't work, as it would be very hard, and might even be nigh-impossible… for now.' Amon sighed.
'Not only that, if I really attack them, and even if I win, I would only have to be satisfied with being a Enel 2.0 and dominate the Skypieans. But that won't work, as if I really want to increase my power, I need loyal subjects rather than fearful subjects… Besides, that's also not how a 'benevolent' God such as I would do his work…' He thought as he shook his head.
'Anyway, since I'm in the losing end, where the chance of the Shandians winning is still low, I will train myself and Shandians for a few more years.' He thought. 'Even if the butterfly effect changes things and someone gets the fruit before I turn 16, it won't be a problem, since now I know about devil-fruit reincarnation.'
"Fuuuuh…" Amon released a long breath, as he rubbed his temple. 'I need to make changes in plans now…. For the 78th time.'
Then covering his face with the sheets of paper, Amon tried to erase these thoughts.
