The Lost Fruits

---------------------

Jahilon - Capital City - Jamr

---------------------

In front of the gates of the royal palace, a very luxurious Carriage stopped, from inside, one man with a very long red and golden attire and a feathery fan in his hand. He then was followed by several men wearing the Chinese army's uniform.

"Finally, after months of traveling." The man said with a tired tone.

"Are you ambassador Yan Mau?" One of the soldiers protecting the gate spoke when the men got out.

"Yes, indeed." Yan Mau spoke with a very respectful and polite tone.

The soldier nodded "Please follow me, we have been expecting you once we have received your letter." The soldier led Yan Mau inside the palace "Currently, there is another important visitor in the pâlace, I am sorry to say, but the Queen will meet both of you at once as she has to deliver her speech at the center of the city."

"I see no problem in that, In fact, I am in a hurry so it wouldn't bother me to do so." Yan Mau smiled and nodded. It was true, he has already wasted a lot of time coming to this faraway land, the sooner he deals with this, the sooner he can return to his family, war is a terrifying and unpredictable thing.

Yan Mau followed the soldier until they reached the Great Guests Hall. The man who escorted him gestured for him to enter and let his men stay behind, Doing so, Yan Mau entered alone. Once he stepped inside, the giant doors were closed behind him.

In front of Yan Mau was a very luxurious hall, filled with all kinds of art and golden statues of the past rulers of Jahilon. And in one particular round table. Three people were sitting facing each other.

Yan Mau walked to them and bowed "Greeting from the emperor of China to your Majesty Jamila." He said with a smile.

Jamila, the woman Ace spared and gave her the rights to rule was smiling at her new guest "Greetings, ambassador." She said. "Please sit down."

Yan Mau chuckled and shook his head "I am not worthy to sit with such a great queen as you, your majesty. I will be content to stand here." He said, but his gaze shifted to the man with the girl who was sitting with the queen. He was a tall and very handsome man with blond hair and blue eyes, his attire was that of a royal military uniform, meaning this man is...A king.

Noticing his gaze, Queen Jamila had to speak and be the perfect host she needs to be "Ah! Ambassador of China, let me introduce you to King Agnarr, ruler of Arendelle together with his daughter, Princess Elsa."

Yan Mau's eyes widened 'Why is this man all the way here?' He thought, but he still smiled and bowed again "It is an honor to meet such a great king as you, King Agnarr."

Agnarr chuckled, being the kind man he was, he stood up and extended his hand to Yan Mau "Hello, Ambassador." He said. Yan Mau looked at his hand and then chuckled before shaking his hand.

Queen Jamila coughed to get the attention of the two men "Your Majesty, and Royal Ambassador...If you please, I have a very important speech to deliver." She said. It was an embarrassing thing to do, having two important guests that she couldn't keep the company at the moment. It was really embarrassing and may reflect a poor image for their kingdom to the two men.

"Yes. Of course." King Agnarr sat down and touched his daughter's hand who all this time was looking down without moving. "Let Ambassador speak first, he came all the way from China, I am sure he is tired." King Agnarr said.

Queen Jamila just looked at the ambassador and didn't try to refute Agnarr, the sooner this ends, the better. She may be all smiles on the outside, but in the inside, her nerves were in chaos.

"I thank both of your Majesties for this honor...Then, without any further ado, I am here to deliver a message on behalf of the Emperor of China himself..." Yan Mau lowered his head slightly "We have heard stories about your Magus Division, our kingdom is under the attack of a monstrous Fire Magus under the Han Army's flag...Please, Our country requests your aid, if you did us this favor, China will never forget such debt and our kingdoms shall be sisters for generations to come. " Yan Mau said with a gentle tone.

"..." Jamila looked at the ambassador and didn't know what to say to him.

"Oh! It looks like we have come for the same reason..." Agnarr smiled and chuckled at the Queen "...To be honest, I have heard that your kingdom has one of the most powerful Magus in this region. My daughter here is also a Magus, My advisors suggested that I should send my daughter to learn under someone who has vast knowledge in this field, and while I am at it, I could form a good relationship with your Kingdom..." Elsa stiffened when she heard her father speak. She started to tremble again, her hands went cold until her father held them together and made her relax.

Queen Jamila shifted her gaze at the two men and girl and with a nervous smile "It is most unfortunate..." She said making the two men snapped their heads at her. The Ambassador braced himself for rejection while Agnarr was confused. Queen Jamila sighed "...We no longer have a Magus Division...or an army at that."

Agnarr and Yan Mau were shocked, both of them couldn't believe it "What happened?" Agnarr asked what was on Yan Mau's mind.

"War..." Jamila said with a grim expression "...My husband, the late king picked a fight with someone he couldn't beat."

"You mean the Magus were killed in the war?" Yan Mau was thrilled "How? what weapon was used? which person has it?" he asked like a little boy while Agnarr clenched his fist, and here he was hoping to find someone who can teach his daughter Magic in this land.

"It was not a weapon, only one man." When Jamila remembered Ace's face that night, she started trembling, the aftereffect of his Haki bursting on her still gives her nightmare, no matter how kind he was, the facts are still he has her life.

"ONE MAN?!!!" Yan Mau raised his voice with a huge grin "Please, I am begging you!! who is this man? which Kingdom does he hail from?" he knelt on the ground, damn his honor if he will miss this chance, this is what he needs, this what he should do.

Agnarr just listed, he himself was marveled, maybe he should see who this man is?

"He is a newly appointed Prince of Agrabah...He is called Portgas D. Ace. A fire Magus, he single-handedly burned our army with one attack. If you seek help, I suggest you go to him, since our kingdoms have entered an alliance, I can recommend you to an audience in the palace to ease your troubles and compensating your wasted time here."

Yan Mau was on cloud nine 'A whole Army with one attack?!! He is the one! I must meet him.' Yan Mau bowed his head "Thank your grace for such action, We shall never forget this."

Agnarr smiled and looked at Jamila "Would you do me the honor too to meet this great man? Since both of your kingdoms are in an alliance, It should not be a problem." He said. If what she told them is true, then no better person is suited for the role of teaching his daughter.

Jamila smiled awkwardly, well...what can she say? she has no choice anyway, she herself is just a puppet for Agrabah, sending people like the Ambassador and the King from other lands is expected from her. "Of course, I will send the letter tonight, you can be on your way as the journey will take from here to Agrabah's capital city from one to two weeks." Jamila stood up and bowed slightly "If you excuse me now...I have a speech to deliver."

Agrabah - Shiekh Amjad's Territory

-------------------------

One of Agrabah's best Cropproducing lands is now experiencing a crisis, and Ace with his companions has come to invistigate.

Ace has come with his Fianceé; Jasmine who was speaking with him to the Lord Amajad as he was explaining the situation.

There was also Aladdin who was flying in the sky with the carpet. Genie was looking at the dead Crop and touched his chin in deep thoughts.

"Are you sure this never happened before?" Ace asked Lord Amjad who was sweating bullets of sweat.

"Y-yes, your highness, everything was normal a week ago, then all of a sudden the Crops started saying and turning black." He said.

In Jasmine's hands was such an example of what he was talking about, a pack of wheat, it was black and as soon as Jasmine put enough force on it, it crumbled like dust. "This not because of Drought or any other natural phenomenon..." she mumbled.

Genie came back with a frown on his face "What happened?" Ace asked.

"I think I know who is behind this..." He said. Everyone looked at him and he shook his head "I think there is something wrong with Te-Fiti."

Ace's tilted head "Te-fi what?"
