One Piece: Reborn as a Skypiean
Chapter 31 - Why Did 20 Kingdoms Attack Shandora?...

Chapter 31

[The Author Note at the end of the chapter is VERY important for the story's development, so I'd hope you'd read it.]

….

"So, what do you want to talk about, Amon?" Gan Fall asked as he was sitting at a table, with Amon sitting opposite to him. Both had a glass of juice in front of them...

"Hey, that's Kami-sama for you!" Raki yelled from beside. 

Amon picked up his glass. "*Sssp* Mm, shut up, Raki," Amon said gently, as she flinched. "Anyway, Gandalf I have a favor to ask you."

Gan Fall also ignored Raki as his eyebrows rose. "Oh? That's quite a surprise. And here I was preparing for a battle! Hahahaha!" Gan Fall said as he laughed. He wasn't sure why he was called, he knew that his relationship with Shandians had also improved, so harming him now would be unexpected.

"What? I already let you live, why would I hurt you now?" Amon asked, but didn't wait for his answer. "Anyway, as God, I could have just ordered you rather than asking a favor, but this is pretty important for me, so I hope you will help me."

This picked Gan Fall's interest. "Oh? Do tell how I may help. May I hear about it?" 

"Hmm, You see this girl?" Amon pointed at Raki. "She has bad manners, she curses at this age, she talks bad to elders, and she hides her face, she is also a pervert… Overall, she is a bitch."

"Eep!" 

Raki jumped in fright and confusion. "W-what are you saying, big brother…" Under the mask, her eyes became teary.

"Oh, yes. I can see that." Gan Fall nodded as he remembered their previous encounters. "So do you want me to teach her manners? Well, I'm quite good at it, since before I became a God I had to complete many kinds of courses." 

"Pretty much," Amon replied instantly while sipping his juice. "But this is a sub-job. Mainly, I want you to teach her swordsmanship." 

Gan Fall showed confusion. "...Well, you do know I use a lance right?" Gan Fall asked, as this time he also sipped his pumpkin juice. "Oh, pumpkin juice! Thanks."

Amon laughed a little seeing this. "Anyway, as you said, you did all kinds of courses, didn't you? Amon asked. "So you should know about swords too, even if it's a tiny fraction. Besides, the lance is not that different from swords, and you are the only one I know of who has knowledge in this category." Amon said. "It's a request though, you can refuse if you want."

"Well-"

"Hey, what about my consent?! I won't learn under a fallen God!" Raki cut just as Gan Fall had opened his mouth.

"Consent? Is that something we eat?" Amon said as he laughed out loud.

Soon after a few minutes of Raki's meaningless struggles, she finally agreed, only at the requirement that Amon would have to train with her too. Amon agreed too since he didn't mind learning a bit of sword art.

"Alright, but not this month. I have VERY important work to do." Amon said. 

"But-"

"No buts," Amon placed his hands over her mask, where the lips are supposed to be. "I'm doing this because I can't contain myself not seeing your face," Amon said. "If you want to hurt my soul more than it already is, then you can reject," Amon said as she just stayed silent, while Gan Fall just looked at them with strange emotions in his eyes. 

'Oh, Kobra, look at your son. He has not only grown strong but also treats his sister so nicely.' Gan Fall thought with a grandpa-like smile.

Soon after, Gan Fall took Raki away, as she struggled, but after Amon's glare, she did what Gan Fall asked her to.

Seeing them go away, Amon released a long breath.

Besides Raki learning how to properly use a sword, Amon did this for only one reason, and that's to know about 'Society'. Although the society in Amon's previous world and One Piece world is completely different, at root, the fundamentals are the same. Humans are monsters and hypocrites.

If he had to be more specific, the one and only reason he did this is Raki's acceptance. The current Raki accepts him with what he is, mostly because the people around her, the Shandians, view these 'evil' and 'horrible' things that Amon does as not-so-bad things, so Raki sees them the same.

Even then, there are things even Shandians will deem as 'bad', however, that doesn't affect Raki's mind at all, just as long as it's her brother who's doing this. However, Raki doesn't know what 'bad, 'good', 'horrible', 'society' and 'manners' REALLY are, that's the reason why she accepts him blindly like this. But in the long run, when her blindfold gets off, when she one day learns about them for real, then what? What will she do?

Will she act the same when she learns about these so-called morals and this society of hypocrites? Or will she rebel? Only time will tell...

«…*...»

Night time, a few days later, while Amon was sneakily walking around the main ruins of Shandora. People might look at this strangely, as to why God is sneaking around, but Amon had a genuine reason.

Even right now, while the Shandians were sleeping, the Karikiri slaves were still working hard, as they only get 3 hours of sleep, even that is too kind for them. 

Soon, he came to the biggest golden structure located in the middle of the city. This building's top is the start root of the Giant Jack. 

Amon then entered the structure. A few minutes later, after taking many turns, he went to the most underground part of the golden building using a hidden door.

There, around an hour later Amon reached a straight line of the hallway. There were doors on both sides, as each of the doors had 20 meters of space between them. After taking a few steps, Amon turned at the door with ["3"] written on its front.

This is his lab, the place where he does human research. Though currently, he has only one test subject, who's also dead… At first, this location is only accessible by the hidden door, even then this is a confidential location, as only a few people know about the hidden door, let alone this lab. So there isn't much security except some scan dials in front of the door and also an electro-formation of dials inside the room, which will shock people to unconsciousness, unless it's Amon. However… even that much security is nothing in the world of One Piece…

Though there is an actual reason for that lack of security, and that is… there is nothing important inside THIS lab. Not even the dead body. This was just a front with just a few medical accessories in it, that even the few who knew the location weren't aware of.

Ignoring the 3rd door, Amon walked through the very long hallway, as after a few minutes when coming at the 23rd door Amon stopped.

Without saying anything, he then went to the empty space between 23 and 24th door. The 20m gap between the two didn't look any different than the other ones, but as if knowing something, Amon sat down there, and after pushing his hands on the floor here and there blindly for a few minutes, Amon got up. As by then a small part of the floor was sunk in the floor like a human head-sized key-button.

Smiling, Amon then looked up at the roof. He then started to jump like a kangaroo while pressing in different spots on the roof.

Again after a few minutes of struggle, the same type of key-press effect was shown in the roof, though it's around 10 meters away from the previous one. This key-effect is a must for the next action, but the keys are random every time.

Soon after, Amon looked in front of him at the Golden wall, as a small human-head-sized area was opened, and as if from a sci-fi movie, a machine came out with a 'blood drop'?symbol on its futuristic screen.

Amon penetrated his finger's skin with a needle that he brought and dropped the blood on the small gap on the machine.

[Beep! Descendant of Shandorians Detected! Beep! Current Era's owner, Shandorian Amon detected! You May Enter!]

The emotionless robotic voice said, as Amon then waited, while something like a slide futuristic door, the golden wall between 23-24th door got separated.

There an elevator was waiting for Amon. Inside it, the walls were made of pure steel, or maybe even a better material, as it was shining from the light bulb on top. 

Amon slowly stepped in without any caution, as if he has done this previously before.

[Beep! Taking the Master of Shandora to the Hall room of Shandora City.] 

The robotic voice said as the golden door closed, and the elevator started to sink. As it went down, it didn't even make any sound but Amon could feel it going down and deep.

Soon after, the Elevator stopped as it slowly started to open.

[Beep! A white fog will be released that will make anyone who doesn't possess Shandorian blood unconscious!]

*Bphhhh!*

As the door of the elevator opened, a white fog entered it. Amon stood there calmly, as a few minutes passed, and the fog vanished, making Amon catch a glimpse of the scene behind.

"...Damn." Even though he has seen this already before, he was still impressed.

The walls were made of pure steel or maybe something better than that as it was shining under the limelight. There were many places where there were walls seemingly made of black gold. There were small spaceships, submarines, and futuristic weaponries laying around. There was also plenty of futuristic medical equipment a bit ahead.

Overall, this looked like a scene straight from the future.

Amon finally did something, though it was just his usual chuckle. "Who would have ever thought, that under Jaya island there was a fucking futuristic city?"

This is a legacy left by the inhabitants of Moon people, the kings of the City of Gold, the ones who created the perfect robotic AI, the Automata. 

The one kingdom which needed the efforts of the 20 kingdoms of the World Government to be destroyed, The Great Shandorians.

A/N: This got confusing, didn't it? Wait for the next chapter. I will try to make sense of things in the next chapter as it will also be a huge info dump!

[[[{Please read "Enel's space journey", the cover story, a CANON story. Many things might feel out of place as you would get SUPER confused too, so I'd suggest you read it as it's only 32 PAGE. You can replace the link by searching in Google or join discord.}]]]]

Also, you'll see the power of this sci-fi in the next chap. Though I'll already say, these aren't that advanced as the current OP world, as it's somewhere around Germa 66

P.S: These sci-fi things are only here, in Shandora city. The whole one piece world is still as it was in the cannon. Also, Amon won't reveal this information to anyone, as the world government, Germa 66, or Vegapunk might get greedy!
