Chapter 134

Title: Jack the Drought (1)

….

Onigashima. It is the HQ of Beasts Pirates. Most of the members of the crew stay here, so even other Emperors would think twice before attacking this place. However, Ace was different. He had one goal, to kill Jack and he would take any risk to accomplish that.

As a pirate, he has done many bad deeds, but he never killed a person before. However, losing a companion changed him.

Still, he only wanted to kill Jack, not pick a fight with all of Beasts Pirates. For that reason, currently, he and the crew were under disguise.

Hence, Amon and Ace's crew were now heading toward Onigashima in a small boat!

Meanwhile, according to what Amon knew, Jack was still in Onigashima, and Reo was sent to Udon's prisoner mine. Certainly, for a person like Reo who couldn't stand seeing the weak suffer, it angered him to the loftiest extent. However, he wasn't brave enough to do something against Amon's plan.

Amon didn't care and rather put more attention on the raid tonight.

«...★...»

Zha!

The sea waves were rough, leaping high in the sky, colliding with each other. Giant fish and sea kings were jumping out of the water with their mouths wide open, they were fighting among themselves, biting one another.

It was a tumultuous scene, however, surprisingly, among this rough climate a small boat was moving through the sea.

In the boat, a person who was wearing a black jacket, as if magic, controlled water and slashed a blade made of it towards the sea kings.

"<Fishman Karate: Water Slash>!"

Pssst!

The water blade cut the head of the fishes in a matter of seconds, splashing a large chunk of water on the small boat.

"Ah!" The boat shook from the impact of the water, the riders screamed but ultimately managed to hold off.

They took a while to regain their composure as they looked at the water bender.

"Woohoo! That was awesome, just like Jimbei!" The people riding the boat cheered towards the person who controlled water, Amon.

All of them were wearing a black jacket and black pants, while a pair of red horns were on their head. People would assume they were members of the Beasts Pirates, but in truth, they were the Spade Pirates!

According to Amon's plans, along with Amon himself, the crew disguised themselves and were heading towards Onigashima.

"Man, you are good." Ace said while standing up from his lying position. He fell when the water hit the boat. "Just how many abilities do you have?" he asked while patting his wet chest.

Amon laughed in response. "Many."

They didn't question much and just chatted while killing some sea kings and holding off the boat.

They left a while ago from Kuri, Amon promised O-Tama to return and pick her up later on.

Soon after, they reached the outskirts of Onigashima.

…

"So, where do we go now…?"

Ace asked while crouching behind a box. The crew was crouching just like him, hiding behind boxes and pillars of the cargo ships docked in the shipyard.

In Onigashima, Kaido receives 'Smiles' from Doffy by these ships. Amon and the crew were hiding inside one of them.

Onigashima, although not as big as Wano, was still pretty big. That was the reason why Ace, in the canon, was able to destroy things yet nobody of the 'Flying six' attacked him, nor did the others, only because he was away from the big shots. He was just happily chatting with Yamato and eating food with her.

Currently, they were on the part of the island where Jack was on the watch, away from the 'Flying Three'. As Amon had planned, there were no other big faces to stop them other than Jack now.

Amon's plan goes like this— 1. Make Ace fight Jack. Certainly, he will lose.

2. Then intervene and kill Jack. But making sure the news gets out that 'Ace killed Jack'.

3. Watch out for variables, such as Yamato who will most likely intervene. And that's when Amon will move and steal the diary – giving Ace all the credit.

It was a well-thought-out plan, and no problem shall occur as long as Amon, an Emperor, helps.

Amon was absorbed in looking for Jack with his Observation and didn't hear Ace's question.

So, Ace asked again: "Um… where do we go now?"

"Oh…!" Amon, who was surprised, blinked. "Give me a minute, I am looking for him."

As he said this, Ace nodded and Amon closed his eyes. Even with a range of 300 km, it was hard to look for a specific person in the middle of thousands.

After a few minutes, Amon opened his eyes again and looked at the faces of the crew. "Guys, I found him. He is alone and drinking wine."

Ace grinned shortly after. "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!"

«...★...»

Above the roof of Jack's personal mansion, he was sitting in a chair with a barrel filled with wine in his hand.

He was depressed since his inferior complex hit him hard, and was spending time drinking.

It was then – Bam! – Jack heard a loud sound coming from not so far.

He instantly got up from the chair and widened his Observation Haki…!!

"Intruders…"

Jack looked far and jumped from the roof, leaping far in the air.

No, he can't use Geppo, he was just that confident in his defense.

Thud!

Jack fell in between some soldiers, making a crater in the ground.

"J-Jack-sama! There are intruders!"

Jack walked in heavy steps. "I know."

"Prepare for battle."

He walked as he slowly started to transform. He was in a bad mood, so he would use his Hybrid form, which although weakens his defense, is fast and strong enough.

Slowly, Jack's body changed as he transformed into a furry Half-elephant, Half-human!

The crew wanted to hideously reach Jack, but from a mistake made by one of the crew members, they attracted the attention of the other small fries after entering Jack's residence's quarters.

The crew easily took them out, but one of the enemies used a bomb to create a small explosion, thus alerting Jack.

While the crew finally finished the small batch of enemies inside Jack's mansion's borders. they discovered the man with an elephant-like trunk, horns and fur walking towards them.

Behind him, other mobs were following, but strangely, they slowly fell on their face without any sound. It was almost as if someone moved very fast and knocked them out. Jack didn't notice this action at all, he just looked angry.

He opened his jaws. "Oh, it'd you guys. So you followed me all the way here?"

The crew noticed him, Ace's furrows knitted.

Meanwhile, Jack's aura seemed to ease up a little seeing these weak bastards. Initially, he assumed, to dare infiltrate Beasts Pirates' HQ, the other party must be strong, but to think it was these weaklings!

However, soon after, his veins popped up, he was already angry from before, but now this angered him more. "Hehe… you fools."

Jack didn't care anymore, he didn't kill them last time because of Reo, but he has snapped now. He will only rest after killing Ace!!

Fwooh!

Jack kicked the ground and dashed forward at an astonishing speed. This hybrid form allowed him to act swiftly while still bringing about great strength.

However, Ace didn't plan to fall back now. He couldn't remember what he did last time, that special technique he used… yet, he didn't fall back. His anger didn't let him.

Ace started to heat the steam around his fist, soon after, it started to glow brightly.

"Fire…" Ace punched at Jack who was only 10 meters away from him. "Fist!"

He has perfected this technique on his way here, now he can produce heat equivalent to an actual flame!

Zha – Boom!

Ace's fist glowed blue and gushed towards Jack 10 meters away, immediately, it caught on his fur as he got lit up in a fire!

"W-Wow, he is burning!"

"Ace won!"

The crew cheered but it didn't even last 2 seconds as they realized Jack didn't stop on his track and was about to hit Ace in the face with his trunk.

For a moment, they got Deuce's flashback. They recalled how he was killed.

"No, Ace!" Perry's voice rang the loudest among the crew members shouting.

Jack obviously didn't care and swung his trunk. Ace clenched his teeth to receive the blow while someone moved.

Bam!

Jack hit Ace, but the hit didn't touch him. Because a man has walked between them.

"Well, isn't this interesting? You are burning, but you are fine?" It was the soothing voice of the man in the mask. "Hah, the defense of Ancient Zoans is terrifying …"

Jack didn't answer, he was just a little shocked at where and how this man suddenly came here. He didn't even see him move. Still, Jack just took a step back and breathed a large chunk of air with his trunk.

Fwooh!

Then with a single gust of wind on his body, he turned off the fire. It was interesting how he was able to do so since normally, his fur would burn hotter because of the oxygen.

As if guessing the question, Jack answered. "Logic doesn't work when you surpass a certain threshold of power."

He was right. Logic didn't work for some people, however, Jack wasn't the only one. Amon was also one of them.

Amon laughed suddenly, "Haha, ain't that true? Buuut, you are weak. Jack the Drought, let me show you, the limit of logic-less power."

While Jack was shocked and angry, Amon raised his hand towards Jack's head. "This is true power, it defies logic."

His hand suddenly glowed: "<Plasma – El Thor>!"

A yellow-reddish beam of compressed lighting came out of Amon's palm and went towards Jack, who had wide eyes. It was plasma, the pure heat extracted from lightning!

Jack had wide eyes in the slowed-down world. As he observed the beam come to him slowly, he got lost in thought.

'This is like Kaido-sama's heat breath!' Jack thought.

He couldn't think anymore as he was hit by the beam in his face, soon getting completely engulfed in the beam as it increased in size.

Zhhhh~

The air was soon filled up with the smell of crispy Mammoth meat.
