Chapter 74

Title: Things...

….

"L-LUCIFER!"

Amon raised an eyebrow hearing Cobra's excited voice. "What? Your face looks strange."

The next second, from the middle of the two people beside Him, Cobra jumped forward at Amon and grabbed his hands. "I've been trying to reach your Dial! I need your help!"

He didn't use the word 'Kingdom' this time.

While Amon tried to move his face backward from Cobra's face, he kept his nervous smile. He didn't reveal the abduction of the princess to the citizens since they would worry for no reason. He was preparing his heart to do so soon enough since they might help in the searching.

But now that one of the Warlords of the sea was here, things aren't looking so bad. After all, Amon to upper-level people is known to have keen Observation Haki, while people like Cobra knew it as a type of sixth sense.

He couldn't reach Sir Crocodile's Den Den Mushi, but after trying hard he was able to reach one of Crocodile's subordinates. Her voice sounded young, and she said Crocodile was too busy to help. Normally, Cobra would have begged Crocodile to help, however, he didn't do so since there was a better candidate for this job than him.

For a day now, he's trying to reach Amon, but his dial only rang and rang, he never picked up the call.

Now seeing him in front, he felt angry at why he didn't pick the call, but he was too caught up in the situation and worried for his daughter to blame Amon right now. Deciding to beg him if needed, Cobra opened his mouth.

"Please save my daughter!"

«...★...»

In the basement of the branch building of Wingless Valkyries, a certain blonde girl was shackled with sea stones. She was biting her lips while looking down.

Bam! Bam!

Knocking hard on the metallic door, the person guarding the door, a member of the organization slid a plate of food towards her from under the door.

"Eat it! Don't expect more than a piece of bread, unlucky bitch!"

The guard said and left.

"Oh, for fucks sake…" The prisoner, Miss Valentine cursed under her breath. "I'm locked, how the hell am I supposed to eat then?!"

Struggling to free herself for the umpteenth time, she gave up with a sigh. "Fuck. Fuck that woman. Fuck that guy too."

She recalled the arrival of Amon 2 days ago. He shocked her and threatened her to say some specific words and recorded them in a strange sea-shell. She didn't know what he would use the recording to do, but she didn't care. She only wanted to free herself from here. 

She was the daughter of a small noble in a small kingdom that failed to pay the 'Heavenly Tribute' and was destroyed thus. Her family was able to escape and she was doing bounty hunting to keep her family safe and alive. Not so long ago, Crocodile offered her a good position in the Baroque works which she accepted unhesitantly. Yet, now she is almost dying for that… 

"Mommy I miss you… sniff." 

The 15 years old sniffed while suppressing her tears. She decided she will survive at all costs. Even if it was to betray Crocodile. 'Life comes first, fuck Crocodile. I've been working under him for less than a month anyway.' She thought, looking down at the piece of bread in front of her. 'Besides, by now he probably thinks I'm dead or betrayed him since there was no contact from my side for 3 days. Fuck.'

Gritting her teeth, she stopped crying and looked towards the bread. "Fuck you, Lucifer."

She aggressively bent forward and took a bite from the bread.

«...★...»

Meanwhile, in the  Palace of Alabasta, Amon was done listening and was standing, doing some stretching. "Okay, man. Calm down, it's not that strange that they didn't call for cash even though 2 nights have passed. I mean, they must be busy hiding or something." Amon said and smiled at Cobra.

"Uh, t-then? What do we do? Wait for them to call?"

Amon just waved his hands at his words. "Nah, that's just a waste of time." He said. "If you still need to sit down and wait even after reaching ME, then it's my failure, my responsibility. Don't worry, your daughter, you'll see her in 59 minutes."

Enlarging his wings, Amon walked towards the window. "Be at ease, I'm good at finding things."

"You can rest assured, or I will compensate you." Not looking back, Amon jumped from the window and vanished with a bolt of lighting.

"..."

Both the Skypieans and the Alabastians were speechless. Skypieans were shocked since they weren't sure why the king suddenly changed after recognizing Amon. They weren't sure, but they decided to pay more attention to not saying his name out loud like he ordered than not to.

While the Alabastians were surprised for another reason. 

"...Are wings supposed to make lightning bolts when flying?" The guard, the Falcon-Zoan user said from the side, envious.

He has tried to look for Vivi from the sky already. For that reason, wasn't sure of his 59 minutes guarantee. 

….

Zzz…

Amon went to the Sky and took a bath in his Shrine, evading everyone's senses. He then went around the forest to eat some mango and spent some time with the snake Nola.

After around half an hour had passed, Amon went back to Alabasta, going to the place where Vivi was. He was the one to suggest the bandits to hide here so it was clear that he knew everything.

The bandits didn't know their job provider's identity, so they were surprised when the Warlord arrived. It took a few minutes to take them down since Amon wanted the tied Vivi to see his heroic figure beating them all. The injured Vivi had tears falling down her cheeks as she started to cry loudly.

She saw Amon once before, though it was just a glance when he came to meet Cobra one time. She wouldn't have remembered him unless he had those wings she was always interested in touching, and also since he left a gift for her. A dial with a smartphone's screen. It had one application on it, a game named 'Talking Tom'. 

She enjoyed it, unbeknownst of Amon's real purpose behind it. At this rate, he might become Big News, Morgan 2.0.

…..

"Waaaaa!"

Vivi cried while hugging Amon as he stroked her hair. He has called Cobra and the Royal Guards on their way. Cobra requested Amon to bring back Vivi right now, he didn't need to wait for the guards. 

Amon looked down at Vivi and crouched down with a smile. Placing his hands on her shoulder Amon looked at her wet eyes. She calmed down a little after seeing Amon smile reassuringly. 

"Is it okay to call you Vivi-chan?"

Vivi nodded lightly. "Um,"

"Great. Do you know who I am?" Anon said with a bright smile.

"No… not much. But I know father is acquainted with you." Vivi replied while wiping her tears.

"That's enough. Then we will leave. I heard you like to fly?" 

Amon said as Vivi:s eyes grew. She asked Pell to take her in the sky on his back many times. He didn't listen, saying it was dangerous and whatever more. She only saw the kingdom from the sky one time before.

"Un… I love to fly… But father said it's dangerous."

Amon laughed lightly and stroked her head. "Don't worry, I'm a professional."

Amon didn't wait for her to reply and picked her up, his wings fused with his body and he placed her on his shoulders.

"E-Ehh, Mister your wings vanished."

Amon grinned looking upwards. "Go–I don't need wings to fly."

Zzzzt!

At a speed less than sound, Amon started to fly with Vivi on his shoulder while she had stars in her eyes. 

Though soon after, she started to scream loudly in fright. Not that Amon stopped.

….

–Amon Pov–

I soon returned to the palace with Vivi on my shoulder. She was scared and was shaking the whole flight of 3 minutes, but I could sense she was very exhilarated.

It took 53 minutes for me to do all these things and return to the palace finally. 

"Oh, my baby! Were you scared?"

"No… I was fine."

Cobra reacted as expected. He cares for his daughter too much, that's good. For me obviously.

Anyway, since I moved things smoothly it won't be a problem for me to get some time from the king. Well, it's easy to do that anyway just by having the title of Warlord.

I can feel Robin's gaze and frown towards me. Damn, she's smart. She figured it out, huh. Or maybe it's just her hunch–eh?

...Nevermind. She's just jealous. 

Or maybe both, who knows...

It's strange how emotions change people. Anyway, I should quicken things up. Saving Vivi and doing all the heroic acts wasn't really just for the king's gratefulness towards me, there is a better reason behind it. A bigger reason.

While I decided to go out with Isa and Aisa and taste some desert food, Cobra and Vivi finally calmed down slowly. 

The food was good. Isa liked it, she took some recipes as well. Nice, good for me. Oh, also she might become pregnant soon since fucking Bob was too horny these days. Fuck sometimes it's a curse to have the Goro Goro no Mi's sensing powers, I can't turn it off like Observation Haki either. 

Fuck you, Bob.

…..

–General Pov–

While things escalated fast, Amon, Isa and Aisa returned to the palace with a Guard accompanying them.

Amon asked a guard to let Cobra know of this, though it seems Cobra was busy first-aiding Vivi. 

Amon smirked internally. This was where he would promote his product. 

Deciding such, he walked through the palace freely while leaving Isa and Aisa with the Skypieans in a different room.

While some guards tried to stop him, Amon just teleported, making them confused and wary. 

Ignoring them while also memorizing the structure of the palace, Amon went to the medic room, where Cobra and Vivi were.

…..

"Yo!"

Amon didn't knock on the door and entered while munching on some fries. 

In the room, Vivi was in a bed with Cobra sitting on a stool on the side, while 4 doctors were applying medicine on her wounds. Vivi on the other hand was releasing pained moans. 

Cobra frowned when he saw someone entering, but when he realized it was Lucifer himself, he sighed. He just saved his daughter, so he couldn't really ask him out. It just felt strange to him…

"Lucifer, is there anything? Don't worry, I will shortly meet your people anyway." Cobra said and got up from his seat, Amon just waved his hands.

"Nah, don't worry too much. I'm here to promote my products…" Amon said and walked over to Vivi, ignoring everyone. 

"H-Hey, boy, the princess is injured. Stay away!"

One of the doctors yelled, though Amon just showed him the middle finger. "Shut the hell up, look what face she is making. Your medicine is shit, she looks like hot boiling water is being poured onto her wounds."

While the doctors flinched, Amon sat down on the bed as Vivi looked at him with one of her eyes closed. She was gritting her teeth to prevent herself from crying. It was true what he said, but not like there was anything else she could do anyway. It was her fault to have been kidnapped by someone in the first place, she can't cry like a little girl for that. She stopped crying for quite a while already.

Looking at her Amon licked his lips. "Now, Vivi-chan it won't hurt at all. So close your eyes."

While Vivi flinched seeing his face, Amon slipped his hands in his pocket, taking out a spray dial.

"E-Eh, what's that–"

"This video is sponsored by… Shandorian Spray!"

Fsssss!

While everyone looked at the scene dumbfounded, Amon pressed the dial as pink spray came out. When it hit her wounds, they were covered in white foam instantly.

"UH! WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY VIVI?!"

Cobra screamed with his hands pulling his hair. Amon ignored him and sprayed the dial all around her body. Her bloody body was soon covered in thick, white, sticky foam.

While Cobra jumped forward while screaming Vivi's name, she slowly opened her eyes. A sign of confusion present in her eyes. "It doesn't hurt…? It feels nice on my wounds."

Amon just laughed and took a tissue from the table. He soon wiped the thick shite stuff from her body as Cobra's eyes were rendered wide.

"Let me present you, Shandia Medicine, Special Spray Dial, Miracle Healing Foam."

Cobra had an agape expression while the doctors started to inspect the tissues.
