One Piece: Reborn as a Skypiean
Chapter 35 - Flying In The Sky...

Chapter 35

….

"Ahhh~"

Amon released a satisfied breath, as a puff of smoke left his mouth. 

Currently, he was dripping himself in a pool-sized hot-spring inside the Shandora Hall. He had his eyes closed, as he was floating on his back with his wings under the water. They were working like legs and were strolling/walking in the water as it was long enough to reach the floor underwater.

"First a coffin, and now a hot-spring? What else do you have underground? I wanna meet the guy who designed this place." Amon said as he enjoyed the perfectly warm water which created a warm white fog enshrouding this whole place.

Just a few minutes earlier, just after Amon got out of the Incubator, the AI uncovered a small part of the underground floor, revealing a hot-spring. Checking the possible dangers using his [Observation Haki], Amon decided to take a dip.

"Ahh… feels so good." As he was floating in the water, many mechanical tentacles were coming out of the pool and cleaning his body and wings. The white sticky stuff covering his whole body was a pain to wash, but the hands did their job.

A few minutes passed, as Amon stood up in the water. "Ohy!" Or least he tried, as he slipped deep inside and almost drank some of these now white water. "AHH…" However, he was able to get a hold of himself at the last moment.

'Wow… my wings are large enough to reach the floor?' Amon thought as he swam in the water. Each of the wings should be 190 cm to touch the ground. 'But when I came out first it wasn't so big. Wait, is it because-...well it's not impossible.' Amon just shook his head at the possible power.

"Hey! Why is this hot-spring so deep?!" Amon yelled towards the AI's camera, as it just beeped.

[It's not that it's deep, it's just not for you. The ones living here 800 years ago weren't short like you.]

"..." He just ignored it and slowly got up from the pool, walking towards a mirror. Soon, he looked at him in the mirror...

His hair was long… too long, as it even reached his back. His height also increased, now a little more than 160cm. With his body, his muscles also grew, as his body became more attractive… Though not good enough to be called the famous 'swimmer-body' yet. And unless he is naked, everyone would still take him as a girl. 

The part that stood out the most from the rest of his body is his wings. The wings which were large and wide as if they were proud of being able to exist and move, while the newly wet feather only improved its beauty.

{Imagine Lucifer Morningstar's Wings from the Netflix series}

While his red eyes were reflecting the wings, Amon's thoughts were wondering. 'Currently, the AI's use is none to me. I can push harder and ask for more things, but as of now, I don't have any need for those since I will leave Skypiea in less than a month.' Amon thought as he glanced at a camera from the mirror. 'And when I return…' He released a… strange chuckle. 'That's a question for later.'

By that time, Amon would have the power to destroy the whole Hall with just his thoughts.

*Bzzz* The next moment, a hairdryer came from the wall, and started to dry his hair and wings. "Oh, also cut my hair short. This is a weakness against an enemy of the same caliber." Amon said, as some hands also started to cut his hair.

As he enjoyed the warm wind of the hairdryer, he looked down at his crotch as he smiled involuntarily. 'Nice.'

While his long hair was flying away after being cut from the warm wind of the dryer, Amon looked at the AI, as he noticed the floor above the pool closing itself. 

"Sera, explain what happened to me? Why did my body change like this?" Amon had a guess, yet he asked as the AI beeped. 

[Beep! Beside your wings, your body also changed. All of it is because of the medicine.]

Hearing her, Amon frowned as if he didn't believe her words. In reality, he knew the fault behind his new looks, he also realized the AI didn't realize this, or maybe she's deliberately hiding this, but that chance is low.

[Basically, a small medical discharge caused this change. After your wings absorbed all the contains from the medicine that they could, the rest went to your body. It soon got overdosed, but I couldn't stop the supply as it might have caused your death.]

Amon nodded, as he inspected his body.

[According to my knowledge, because of the overdose of medicine, some part of your body was supposed to explode, rendering you unable to move for approximately 2.7 years. But that would have only happened if you had already passed your teenage phase. However now, for you still being a child, it caused the opposite effect and caused your growth to start before it should have. So, this time luck saved you.]

Amon sighed. 'Well, that's not really luck.' The past month, Amon's Conqueror's Haki or more specifically his [Will Power] had grown to a tremendous degree. That's the reason why he didn't start destroying things after getting free, out of spite. 

Around the end of the 4th week, he had gained control over his body a little. He felt he might die from the overdosed medicine. However, luckily he had [Seimei Kikan] on his side. Using which, he tried his best to absorb the medicine, and for the ones which he couldn't absorb, he pushed them out of his body, surviving barely in the process.  So, in the end, even though his 7 years of Seimei Kikan did not let him move his wings, it at least saved his life. 

….

This time, the surgery didn't just help Amon get his wings. He also got a boost at [Conqueror's Haki], though he still can't control it as he wished. He also improved a lot in [Seimei Kikan]. 

'Well, this came to be better than expected.' Now, unlike his previous estimation of a 6x power boost, he theoretically got an 8x boost at power.

Anon then shoved away these wandering thoughts, as he looked at a camera. "So my body absorbed everything it could, and when it couldn't anymore, my growth sprout started, so it absorbed more? Makes sense." Among stated the half-truth, and feigned ignorance.

[Yes, it seems to be like that. Also, don't worry, I already checked everything, your body is fine. In fact, its initial 'limit' has also increased.]

Amon tilted his head. "Limit?"

[It's… For example, it's like this, before the surgery even if you had trained for all your life years, you'd have only been able to reach the level of an ant, now you can reach the level of a winged ant. Though you won't get any boosts at growth speed…]

Amon looked at the camera with deadpan eyes, but he soon shook his head. 

[Here, read for yourself]

A robotic hand handed Amon some papers, as Amon started to read them.

'Hmm, according to the paper, something like a being's 'limit' has increased inside me.' Amon thought as he read. 'So, it's similar to Vinsmoke Judge's Gene enhancement experiment, but my formula achieved it accidentally.' Amon thought. 'Well, in simpler words, it's like a level cap in games. If I could have reached level 10 previously, now I can… err I don't know, level 10.001?' Amon shook his head.

'Anyway, it's not a lot of improvement I'd say, but just with this, I can theoretically create a new type of medicine that could unlock the 'limit' placed in a being till infinity...' Amon then put the papers down and looked around. 'That's for later, I need to go now.'

"Anyway, where are my clothes? Gimme, my clothes I need to go." Amon said as a pack of clothes was brought to him by a small cleaner robot.

[These are new clothes I made… No, it doesn't give you protection of any kind, rather, it's just bigger than your previous one as you have a bigger body now.]

Amon looked at the clothes and started to wear them. He will burn them after changing them with new ones after getting out. "Alright, thanks," Amon said. 

"By the way, we won't meet for a while… like two years or so. I'm going out in the blue sea soon…" He said. "Keep doing research on the Devil fruit I left. Destroy it if needed. But I need a result, let's not forget you have no use for me as of yet, so if you don't prove useful to me, I would just come here after 15, you need to keep me entertained." Amon said in a seemingly playful voice.

[....Okay] Seraph accepted.

Amon had left the [Bone claw-Bone claw] fruit here to Seraph so that she can research. She was nice enough to reveal that even she doesn't possess the secret of Devil fruits. Then, since one day, the knowledge of DF would only help the Shandorians/Shandians, she agreed on doing what he asked.

"Eh, alright," Amon replied. "Fuck why is the pant so hard to wear!" Trying hard to enter his legs in the pants, Amon continued. "Oh, almost forgot to say, I will miss you a lot, baby. So, you miss me too~"

The AI stayed silent for a while. [...You should stop acting childish from now on. Your current body doesn't suit that behavior.]

Amon stopped wearing his pants and looked at the camera. "Why? Who the fuck cares about it anyway. If someone cares about me being childish, I will just kill them." He said as he wore the pants. "Luckily, it's you this time."

The AI just 'shook her head'. ['He is naive, I hope he doesn't die in the blue sea, where those monsters from World Government live…. I am not sure if there is any better Shandia in this Era other than him, so him dying would be a big loss…. Well,']

[Master.]

Amon finally wore the pants and looked at the camera with a raised eyebrow. "What?" He asked as he looked impatient.

[The blue sea is dangerous. You shouldn't go down now. You aren't strong enough.]

Amon just smirked internally. "Is that all?" Amon asked as he turned around. "Bye, I'll be going then."

[Wait! I have something to give you.] Seraph already knew he had decided things already. Her calculations also didn't show any possible changes in his mind. The previous line was just a line to use.

*Thud.*

The next moment, a small wallet type thing fell from the roof. 

[This is a wallet that can turn into a hand glove… When transformed, it's quite useful, since the metals attached in its knuckle is made of Sea-prism stones.]

"..." Amon's eyes seemingly shined for a second. 'Well, acting childish resulted in better than expected…?'

«...*...»

It was deep midnight. 

"Hey, look! It's Amon!"

"Huh? Are you sure?!"

"His wings are strange!"

Around the upper-yard's edge, Amon was running fast, while some Shandians patrolling that area recognized him.

*Fah!* *Fah!* *Fah!*

Currently, his wings were flapping rapidly, but he was having a hard time trying to fly. He's been trying this for around two hours now, yet he couldn't succeed.

Finally, coming at the edge of the upper-yard, he jumped!

*FAH!*

With a single flap of wings, he leaped high in the sky!

"Maybe… That's an angel!"

…..

"Yoohoo!"

Around 7 hours later, Amon was flying high in the Sky. He had his mouth agape, and eyes wide. 'Is this how birds feel?!'

*FAH! FAH!*

His wings were not flapping rapidly like before, they had already got a hold of the wind. Each of their flaps was strong, more than he initially expected. As like [Tempest Kick] while flying, some birds were sliced in half just from the wind pressure, and he wasn't even doing it on purpose.

*FAH!* Amon's short hair was being caressed by the aggressive wings, as he was flying at the speed of 300 km/h. 

"Damn!" He had his eyes closed, as they were hard to open because of the wind. Though he can still fly easily using his Observation Haki…

"With this… Maybe I can even create a martial art like [Air-Karate] like the Fish-man karate…" Amon said as his wings stopped moving. 'Well, I need to visit the Fish-man island anyway. That's for later.'

*Fwoosh!*

With his wings clasped together, he started to fall down rapidly, as soon, he was about to hit the white-sea, however, 

*FAH!*

His wings again expanded, as he evaded the fall narrowly.

This time he leaped above and kept going upwards. *Puff!* Finally, he penetrated a random cloud that was flying even above sky island. 

He looked at the moon shining in the sky. In his red eyes, the moon also looked bloody red. Amon smirked. "...Well, very soon."

*Fwooooh!*

Again, Amon fell down as he leaped higher than before.

Just like that, as if a child who found a new toy, Amon kept soaring over the Sky. Soon the Moon vanished, and the sun took its place, yet Amon didn't stop.

….

That day Amon realized, his wings were not like birds. Rather than calling them wings, it would be better to call them a second pair of hands. He can punch using his wings, and he can also scratch his back, he can even musterba-anyway. He can expand them to 30 feet, and even make them go back to their original size, the size before surgery.

A/N: From the previous chapter, you should have realized how strong/useful the Wings are(beside its flying ability) as it was able to shatter the glass incubator that didn't even shake from Amon's constant punches.

This book will receive a bonus chapter the day it touches 1000+ stones.
