Chapter 122
Title: Donquixote Doflamingo…!
….
"
One day, the ship of the Spade Pirates was severely damaged, and the only member of the crew back then, Portgas. D. Ace and Masked Deuce were stranded on an island in the East Blue, Sixis Island.
It was a dangerous island where they barely found any food. On their sixth day starving, Ace came across a treasure chest where a strange fruit was kept.
Ace took the first bite, Masked Deuce took the second. Naturally, Portgas D. Ace became the person to possess the fruit Amon left there, Steam-Steam fruit!
"Ehh... my attack was blocked?"
In front of him Ace, the Knight of the Sea, Jimbei stood.
…..
Just like that, two more weeks passed by. Ace was captured by Fishman guards, Amon learned about this but didn't take any actions.
Finally, Ace was able to escape!
Barely, Ace and his crew came out of the Fishman island safely.
He was quite injured, but he made a new friend, Jimbei. After Jimbei tried to stop him, but ultimately got defeated as Ace unlocked Haki mid-battle, he let Ace go because of his respect for Ace.
Now, the Spade Pirates were left to choose one of the three islands that their Log Pose was pointing at.
"Hmm, Raijin island? I heard lightning rains in that place…. That's dangerous."
Ace was happy after unlocking this new power named Haki, so he didn't mind going to Raijin island. The problem was his crew members, they were too weak.
Masked Deuce, Ace's first crewmate, made a suggestion. "Ace, why not choose Risky Red Island? I heard it's a volcanic place, and it's old like 'Little Garden'. Not only that, there is a rumour that there is a devil fruit that many factions are after."
Ace grinned. "Really? That's interesting, then let's go there!!"
Everyone in the crew agreed.
Risky Red Island…
An Island with rumors swirling around it. They said in the past, a black dragon used to live there. After his death, the grave became a volcano! It erupts every now and then, without any sign. Still, unlike Raijin island, people choose this island since the volcano is only in the middle of it and the other dangers are bearable.
"Everyone, let's go!!!"
The ship started to move towards the island, but how would things move after this? How would Ace react after meeting up with Kaido's and the 5th Emperor's subordinates on that island?
«...‡...»
Same time, Amon was in a room with a tall blonde man in front of him. The man had a grin plastered on his face.
"Keke, so Sky Emperor, why is it that you are here?"
"Why? Can't I come to this beautiful place as a tourist? I heard a lot about Dressrosa, so I thought why not see it for myself?" The Sky Emperor, Amon said after a laugh.
Amon tilted his head with a dangerous gleam. "Perhaps, are you against it, Doflamingo?"
"Keke, not at all. I was simply curious."
Indeed, it was Donquixote Doflamingo!

Amon came to Dressrosa by himself. He didn't let Doffy know of this before and just enjoyed the scene of the One Piece world's Spain.
He enjoyed some food, observed some toys, flirted with girls, and watched the dance of Viola, all under a disguise. Viola kissed in the air towards him, meaning Doffy already found out about his arrival.
As expected, Doflamingo had truly learned of his arrival and sent people to respectfully take him to the Royal Palace.
So here he was now, sitting in front of Doflamingo, legs crossed.
….
'Ah… is this fear I am feeling? The people who can make me feel this can be counted in one hand...'
Doffy was scared.
Even though he knew Kaido was backing him, this was the guy who humiliated World Nobles, he knew there were some screws loose in his head to do that.
But there was another reason. It was the 'aura' around Amon's body.
This was the result of killing millions of lives in space. Amon had a passive presence of a 'slaughterer' that strong people could easily see unless he decided to hide it himself, which he didn't do right now.
Sensing the danger, even Doffy, who always uses Kaido's backing to scare people, was scared that Amon might snap and kill him.
But he absolutely couldn't show his fear on the outside! Or it would weaken his image.
He knew he can't beat Amon, and from what he heard about his powers, Amon can destroy this place using that explosion attack, so Doffy was more careful. He can't beat him, he can't even touch him. In that case, playing passive and hoping he's not here to destroy things would be the smartest choice.
He decided to talk about things first. But Amon opened his mouth first.
"Hmm, Doflamingo? Are you not happy with me here? Do you have any problem with my presence?"
Amon played with Doffy's mind while Doffy controlled his veins from popping up.
"Keke, obviously not. But I assumed an Emperor would be busier than this." He had his iconic grin plastered on his face. "I was just being considerate."
Amon laughed. "I understand. It's good that you are such a considerate man, unlike how rumours suggest."
Amon wasn't beating around the bush, he was not hiding under a mask either. This was the treatment Doffy deserved, he was just another pawn to Amon.
Amon's smiling face took a serious turn. He was still smiling, but that smile was easily deemed dangerous.
"Doflamingo," Amon attracted his attention. "Let me cut to the chase, I want you to hand over Caesar Clown to me along with Punk Hazard. You get it?"
"...What?" Doffy's face froze.
"S.A.D."
"I want S.A.D. and Caesar Clown." Amon's face was grim. "I'm not requesting it, I am demanding it. Hand it over."
Duffy failed to control his veins as they popped up. "I can't do that. I work directly under Kaido, he wants the S.A.D, if you want it then get it from Kaido."
"Oh my, Doffy." Amon grinned. "Are you that eager to die?"
Under Amon's gaze, Doflamingo felt chills down his spine.
"Are you an idiot?" Amon chuckled. "Kaido? Do you think I care about him at all? I, Amon, can kill him in a second."
After a short silence filled with shock, Doffy laughed hearing him. "Don't get over your head, you aren't that strong, Little Emperor."
He took out a newspaper.
″″Admiral Kizaru is alive! Sky Emperor's mischief? Or plotting by the Government?` This was the headline!″″
Yes, 2 weeks ago, after Kizaru's arrival in the Mariejois, his status was changed again. People now knew Amon didn't kill him. For that, some even assumed Amon 'couldn't' kill him, Doffy was one of them.
Before, he assumed Amon was above Admiral and below Fleet Admiral, but after this, he assumed Amon was just around Admiral.
Although Doffy was confident enough to beat an Admiral, he wasn't dumb enough to believe that he could beat Amon as well.
However, "I am confident Kaido can whip your ass, Luci-"
Zzzz…
"!!??"
Before Doffy could react, he was pinned against the wall.
He blinked. Amon had his hand on his neck, his eyes looking deep within Doffy.
""Maybe Kaido really can, but can... you? I can kill you here and Kaido won't know shit.""
Amon's voice was vibrating, his skin was blue.
""Donqixoute Doflamingo, don't underestimate God."'
This was not arrogance, this was confidence.
Amon was confident to run from Kaido, and that was enough for his morale to get a boost.
Doffy started to sweat. 'I didn't even see him move… Ku ku, monster!'
Zzzzt~
Doffy felt his body give up. Physical strength can't stop the nerve from being controlled.
….
In the end, Doffy agreed to let Amon use Caesar Clown, but he won't hand him over fully.
Amon accepted it, this was enough. He also knew Doffy won't reveal that Caesar is working for Amon too, since then Kaido will be enraged.
Finally, Amon calmed down.
"Doflamingo, it was a good sight here in Dressrosa. But since I'm done with my work here, I should now leave."
Doffy chuckled. "Ku ku. Now, now, why don't you stay for a while more? I can be your guide here."
Amon looked at him with a radiant smile. 'What are you up to, you slimy bastard.'
While Amon started to look into the future, Doffy continued. "You haven't seen a lot of things, so why not?"
Doflamingo had a spare plan for Amon. 'From my underworld network, I heard he's a playboy… sad. I will use it against him.'
He used that girl, Viola, against Sanji in canon, it would only make sense that he would use her against this playboy Emperor as well. Rather, this time, he will use her entirely.
"Doflamingo-"
Kreak!
Before Amon could finish his question, the door was pushed open and a person entered the room.
Tak Tak Tak Tak
Her slow steps made both of them look.
"Sorry for the insertion, I have brought tea."
It was a sweetly smiling woman, Viola.
She made a surprised face as her eyes fell on Amon. "Oh my, aren't you the handsome man who was watching my show?"
Amon nodded lightly with a smile.
Doffy grinned internally, he asked for Viola to come here before. They made an act to attract Amon as well.
Thinking such, Doffy made an angered face. "Viola, didn't I tell you not to come in when I am having an important meeting?"
He continued. "He is an important man, why are you acting like this in front of him?"
Amon laughed internally seeing Doflamingo's act. He has seen into the future and the development was fascinating.
He played along. 'Does he want to seduce me with her? Fine, I also need a spy in Dressrosa.'
If he was offering his girl, Amon wouldn't reject.
He widened his lips.
"Doflamingo, calm down. You should treat women more respectfully." Amon said as Doffy's frown disappeared.
"Kk, if you say so." He then glanced at Viola. "I don't really see her as a woman, she is trash-"
"Doflamingo, that's not how you should treat them." Amon made a grim face.
Doffy's internal grin widened. "I… understand."
As a short silence enveloped the place, Doffy looked at Viola. "Viola, get out for a second."
She nodded with a nonchalant face and walked out after bowing in courtesy.
As she went out, Doffy looked at Amon. "Sky Emperor… What do you think about spending a night with her? I can see that you quite like her."
Amon's eyes grew up in 'shock'.
Doffy grinned. 'Surprisingly, Viola has pretty high stamina. When the gigolo falls asleep, I will make her look into his memories. It will certainly help Kaido. Ke ke ke…'
Amon's grim face loosened up as he smiled. 'What an idiot cuck.'

That night,
Viola begged Amon to defeat Doffy since she saw how he pinned him against the wall.
She bowed to the ground and cried. She told Amon about what happened in Dressrosa 6 years ago.
But unfortunately, Amon simply didn't care. Doffy had quite the uses for him now, he wasn't beta enough to listen to a woman he met for a one-night stand.
"Miss Viola, let me be clear, I don't care at all. So, I would like to proceed with the main part of tonight, alright?"
Viola's tears started to fall down her naked body. "Please… I beg you."
Amon just crackled up. The answer was clear as Viola bit her lips.
….
After she was rejected, Amon did as he pleased with her... The details would be omitted.
Ultimately, Amon took her to Tesoro at night at a high speed and returned after making her into another brainwashed puppet with Baccarat's help.
'1 spy on Dressrosa: Completed.'
Just like that, Amon completed his journey in Dressrosa. However, things will get very busy for him and his people. Because, even though Doffy won't reveal anything about him to Kaido, something big will happen in Risky Red Island and… attract The Strongest Creature's wrath!!
