One Piece: Reborn as a Skypiean

Chapter 3 - Death Again?



[Vyper and Wyper are different] Chapter 3

….

(Time Skip, 1 month)

1 Month.

It's been 1 month since I've been here. 

Currently, I'm laying on a baby crib. For the last month, this is what I've been doing. Only because everything was dizzy around me and I couldn't even focus on thinking straight, as memories of my previous life were coming and going. Also, my memories were hazy and I wasn't even able to recall all the things clearly. I felt like I was high on drugs...

However, after I woke up today I'm feeling better than before… Maybe my memories were getting merged with my new brain… Actually, how do I have these memories if I don't already have them in my brain? Does this follow the concept of souls? Well, reincarnation has made me more open-minded than ever before. Something like soul existing would only make things more natural… Ugh, I'm thinking useless things again.

Anyway, whatever was happening within my brain has been over now. At least my mind has stabilized. And I also seem to have gained more control over my body...

Luckily nothing troublesome has occurred in my new life until now. But I feel something might happen soon… Sigh, maybe my death has made me too skeptical. Let's not think too much.  

Now, let's keep my brain updated on everything that happened until today.

First thing is, my biological 'mother' died.

The small commotion at my birth was caused by her death…. Well, that's a clichè scenario. To be honest, I don't really feel anything even after knowing this. Not that I had any attachment to her.

But honestly, it's actually good that she passed away. Because I know how Mothers feel about their children... How they want to be always loved by their children… I also know that if she lived, I would have NEVER been able to see as my Mother, let alone loving her as one... Or maybe I would have loved her unconditionally? Nonetheless, I'm a little grateful to her for giving birth to me...

…...

So looking back, I have been living a monotonous life this past month. But my memories going through the migration, my sense of time was messed up. So I didn't really feel much boredom.

I still haven't come out of my little dilemma and cry whenever I want… and honestly, I feel like letting it all out instead of growing with a heavy heart. I don't plan to grow up into an Emo Sasuke, after all… Since I've been given a second chance, I won't let it go to waste. Now with nothing to lose, in this world which possibly has magical beings based on these wings on my back, maybe I can gain the absolute power I have always been seeking for… Maybe I can even return someday...Sigh, I'm getting distracted again.

Anyway, I sleep most of the time in my crib. But, even when I wake up I don't do much. I just stare at the ceiling, thinking about my family... if I feel sad I just start crying. Since nobody would suspect a baby doing his only job, I can let out my feelings without worry… Sigh… I'll probably have to wear my "Mask" again in the future… I at least want to be myself when I'm a baby.

Oh, and sometimes this one woman who is supposed to be my 'mother's' close friend comes to me and helps me calm down. She is also the one who feeds me most of the time. Her name is Isa I recall. She also has a bit of medical knowledge.

Then there is my 'father' of this world. I haven't met him yet. He is most likely dead too… Well, I haven't even seen him, so again I don't feel anything.

The only ones I can recall clearly are the wrinkled hag from before, who comes to check on me every 7 days. It seems she is one of the few doctors around here, or at least something close to being a doctor.

I don't know the hag's name though. The only person I know the name of is Isa. She breastfeeds me while talking non-stop. As annoying as it might be, she's still a good source of information. As it was her annoying talks that let me know that she's my mother's friend.

From her, I also learned I'm born in a tribe. Also that I have a 'cousin' who was born just after a week after my birth. I recall, his name is-

"...!"

I pulled myself out of my thoughts as I heard the door open, making a *Kreak* sound. I threw my hands in the air as if trying to reach the ceiling while making weird "Waa" "Hawah" sounds.

…..

–General Pov–

While baby Amon was acting like a curious baby, the door opened and an old man, along with a bulky man walked across it.

Amon was lying down on his crib, so he couldn't see who entered the room. He perked up his ears, trying to know how many people were there. 'Hmm, although it's soon time for my breastfeeding period, I don't think it's Isa who came. Rather, I think it's two people. It's a strange feeling, but I might be wrong.'

Soon after, the view of two people entered the corner of Amon's eyes, confirming his gut feeling. 'So my guess was right... Is this a perk of being a part of this winged-race?' Amon thought.

But, even though he was thinking these things inside, on the outside, he just kept up his acting, as if he didn't even see anyone.

The two men came to a stop after reaching Amon's crib as the complete view of the men entered Amon's view. 

One is a tanned man with a muscular body with his black hair reaching his back. The right side of his body contained many different types of tribal tattoos and even the right side of his face was covered with tattoos. He was wearing a grass skirt, with a rope belt decorated by three small ornaments that look like fangs or claws around his waist.

And the other person was an elderly man with a gray beard and long hair of the same color. He was also wearing a tribe like attire covered by a long robe and carried a staff with a tribal mask on the top. On his head, the old man was wearing an animal's head as a helmet, which was decorated with feathers. 

Both of them had the same kind of small wings on their backs too.

'Like the people I met until now, these two also have some kind of tribal attire too. So Isa was telling the truth… I mean suspecting a woman telling lies to an infant was dumb… The old man is most probably a chief or at least someone high in the ranks.' Amon then looked at the muscular man. 'And this guy… is he a Warrior like that old hag mentioned? He gives a dangerous vibe.'

Surprisingly both of them looked very familiar to Amon. He couldn't point it out where he had seen them though.

"Chieftain, so this is my nephew?... My little brother sure left a cute baby… The muscular man then picked up Amon and held him at his eye-level. "However, We are the Warrior of Shandora,  the protectors of God… We do not need cute Men!"

Amon was caught off guard by the man's words. He wanted to struggle, but he knew it was pointless. 'He is my uncle? I get it, but is something wrong with him? He is glaring at me for no apparent reason too. I mean babies are cute… But most importantly, did he just say Shandora?'

Amon has already taken it for granted that his 'father' has also died. But seeing that even after one month, the one who came to meet him was his Uncle, he was sure that his guess was correct. 

The past month other than Isa and the old wrinkled lady, a lot of children also came to see him. But he never got to meet anyone who had blood-bond with him. From Isa's loose mouth, he was able to learn that he has an uncle and also a cousin of the same age. But this was his first time meeting his uncle.

The old man, who was just referred to as Chieftain, glanced at Amon for a moment before looking at the bulky man.

"You are right Viper. Just like you and your younger brother, this child is also the descendent of great ancestor Kalgara" The old man sighed and shook his head. "But… you know what your traitor brother has done, right? He actually tried to negotiate with that self-proclaimed 'God' to bring an end to this war!" He said in a calm voice. But, each of his words made Amon suspicious, he might know where he is now.

Hearing the chief, the bulky man named Viper nodded silently. 

The chief's calm demeanor then suddenly changed, and then he said with a shaking voice. "Y-you know Viper, he was a traitor. After pulling some strings, I was able to eliminate the traitor, in the name of death on the battlefield. But… the recent raids, they are all failing. This must be the wrath of Kalgara! W-we need to do something!..."

Visible panic can be spotted in the old man's eyes. Amon got very nervous hearing his words. He had a bad feeling about this.

The old man then looked at Viper with seriousness and gulped. "Viper, I have sent your brother to demise with a justified reason such as death on the battlefield. Only you and I are the ones who know this… However, even after eliminating the Traitor, and even with his wife's death while giving birth... We are still suffering. Y-you know what it means right?" Viper nodded at this question and replied. "That must mean we have been cursed by Kalgara's divine soul."

The chief let out a nervous smile hearing him."Yes, you are right. As expected from you… let's talk about that later, we need to do something about this." He then pointed towards Amon, who was in Viper's arms. "We… we need to sacrifice this child!"

'Fuck.' Amon cursed in his mind.

Then the chief's hand started to shake. "B-but… I'm scared, even though I INDIRECTLY killed his father, a descendant of Kalgara, all this is happening to the tribe… After that happened, I-I can't take the life of another Kalgara descendant with my own hands." 

The old man's staff fell on the floor from his shaking hand. He then held Viper by the shoulder and started to shake him violently.

"V-Viper. You are his uncle, his only blood relative left in this world. Furthermore, you are a Kalgara descendent yourself. S-so, you'll be probably fine after killin-sacrificing him! You have to do it now, for the sake of the tribe!" The chief had a horrified expression on his face, and when Amon entered the corner of his eyes, he made a face as if he was looking at a demon...

His gaze frightened Amon. Making him clench his teeth in anger and frustration. At first, he didn't care about dying for a second time, but now it's a different case. He has found out his current location, a world he knows very thoroughly. He can achieve great powers in his life in this world, but…  Is he going to die again?!

A/N: Mc hadn't realize he was in One Piece world since his mind was acting strange, and there wasn't any definitive evidence on his hand. But now just when he learned about his location, will he die again??

Anyway, as you've guessed I click baited you all. Mc isn't born as a Normal Skypiean, instead he was born in the cousin sub-race of it, the Shandians. Damn, what a scam ?.

Jokes aside, most people don't know what Shandians are. However, I didn't click bait anyone?. Since Shandians are also considered Skypieans, by the people of One Piece world.
