One Piece: Reborn as a Skypiean

Chapter 209: Oops (2)

—

Things got a little messed up on her end, Raki realised after coming out of her daze.

"This is bad, right…?"

"It probably is. But, eh."

She stood over the body of Katakuri that had fallen on its back after being riddled by the countless weapons made of light. The weapons had vanished, dissipated in the atmosphere, so Katakuri's body was a mess of holes. 

"It's been around a month since brother went to Alabasta," Raki muttered. "Let's hope he doesn't come back before Big Mom comes for revenge, hehe."

Raki recalled Big Mom was called –  "The World's Strongest Hag", but in truth, she was basically the strongest among all the women too.. 

This meant something – an opportunity.

While Raki's primary ambition was to follow her brother, she also hoped to be renowned as the Strongest Swords(wo)man and Strongest Woman in general, too. Because only by being the strongest, Raki would be able to stand beside her brother – or so she believed. 

Unfortunately, 

"The swordsman thing can be done later, let's kill Big Mom for now, hehe."

Big Mom was the strongest for a reason. A reason that Raki wouldn't be able to overcome anytime soon.

"Less go!"

«—(★)—»

It took less than an hour for the news to reach Big Mom. Unsurprisingly, her rage was beyond the roof. 

While she didnt love most of her children, Katakuri wasn't among them. Other than that, he was also her 2nd in command. His death would deliver the Big Mom pirates a big hit.

"PEROSPERO!"

The Haki of a Supreme King had burst out of her, all the civilians and most of her own children had already lost their consciousness. 

"THE SNAKE DARED TO BITE BACK, TIME TO BEHEAD IT!"

Charlotte Linlin, aka the strongest woman alive right now, was enraged. For the first time in 2 decades, something other than sweets has enraged her this much.

She wore Prometheus on her head, Zeus was under her feet and Napoleon was on her hand. 

This wasn't the Big Mom who Luffy fought. She was still moderately sane, her mind was focused on one thing – killing the Snake.

Today, she was the envoy of death for anyone who would dare oppose her, not like there were many.

On a lifeless island of New World,

"Hey! Stop! I am here! Heyyyyy!"

At the shore of the island, a girl was screaming on top of her lungs while waving her hand towards a ship barely visible at the far sea. From the looks of it, the ship hasn't even noticed her.

She was wearing a sleeveless white garment with a diamond-shaped design on both sides and an indigo, wisp-patterned bottom half. 

If a professional tailor saw this, he would be able to recognise that garment was originally a sleeved kimono with long white sleeves but were later ripped off, leaving the garment sleeveless and making it more battle-fitting.

"Argh, why did he leave me on this island?"

The girl groaned and rubbed her temple.

This was Yamato, Kaido's daughter. The person, who, in this timeline, decided to be trained by Kaido after the changes made by Amon. 

"He even made me eat a devil fruit, now I can't just swim out of this island."

Unlike canon, Kaido gave her the Mythical Zoan devil fruit by himself. 

"How am I supposed to find Ace at this rate?"

She fell on her butt and moved her head up towards the sky.

There was a huge white cloud floating over her head. She imagined Oden's face on the cloud as her fist curled up.

She slammed the ground, forming a crater and gritted her teeth.

"No, I can't break down." She mumbled under her breath. "I need the dairy back, I need to give that to Momonosuke after he returns. I wouldn't be Oden if I can't get it back…!"

She clenched her jaws. "Let's try my Devil Fruit. There must be a reason why Kaido gave this to me."

With a grit of her teeth, she got up back on her foot. Her desperate eyes turned sharp.

"You shouldn't~" 

Raki pleaded while her hands were locked on Robin's neck. 

"I'm saying brother permitted me, he said I can fight Big Mom! You don't need to call him and let him know about this. Listen to me, Robinnnn!"

"Stop acting childish, will you?" Robin kept frowning at her. "Show me proof."

A smile came onto Raki's face. "Here~" 

She took out her SmartDial and fudged with some apps. Soon, Amon's voice came out of it.

["Pfft- sure. Just don't get yourself killed. If you do, don't expect me to revive you or something, I don't have actual Godly powers yet."]

She has used the useful record feature of the SmartDial. The reason being, she wanted to show Robin the recording – and she loved what Amon said.

Robin listened to the recording while blinking.

Raki grinned. "So?"

Robin stared at her face. After a short silence, she nodded. "Fine, do as you please. But like he said, don't get killed."

"Hehe," Raki leaned and kissed Robin on the cheeks. "Thanks, thanks!"

Robin sighed and shook her head as Raki cancelled the hug and jumped in the bed.

"Also, I am calling the others. You can't fight all of the Big Mom pirates at once." Robin added and took out her own Smart Dial.

"Eh, do it. I know my limits." Raki agreed too. "Just don't tell brother, I am worried that he will change his mind and ruin my opportunity." 

Seeing Robin nodding helplessly, Raki's lips curled up. 'Maybe I can become the Strongest Woman before he becomes the Strongest Man… good, good.'

She rolled on the bed, she was excited about the battle.

It would probably take another week for Big Mom to reach this island. So, she has time to prepare a little.

Unlike how people might think – unlike how people would believe – Raki wasn't being dumb.

She knows this would be hard. She knows her limit. She knows where she stands and she also knows Big Mom is an Emperor of the sea for a Reason.

Raki even knows she might die. But, 

Is a life without any risk, still considered living?
