Chapter Summaries

Dimon used his Animation ability to bring a church statue to life and uncover the Mythical Zoan Vampire Fruit hidden in the basement. After escaping with the fruit, he animated it by the shore, where it began transforming into a person and called him master.

• Dimon confronted the priest in Sleepy Town and animated the church statue when the priest denied the Vampire Fruit existed.
• The animated statue revealed that the fruit was hidden in the church basement and led Dimon to it.
• The priest tried to threaten Dimon with a pistol, but he backed down after Dimon stood his ground.
• After midnight, Dimon used Animation on the Vampire Fruit, which grew into a humanlike figure.
• The transformed fruit called Dimon master, leaving him to wonder whether it was a Devil Fruit or a human.

Dimon named the awakened Vampire Fruit Mammon and ordered him to gather blood so he could grant Dimon a longer life. Mammon attacked the Warrior Pirates near Sleepy Town and began carrying their crew back to Dimon two at a time.

• Mammon explained his abilities, including flight, darkness, blood-draining, and granting others longer lifespans, and said he had complete control over them.
• Dimon learned Mammon could be destroyed in his human form and was vulnerable to seawater and Seastone, then named him Mammon and ordered him to make Dimon immortal.
• Mammon said he needed human blood to extend Dimon's lifespan, so Dimon told him to find pirates at sea.
• Near Sleepy Town, Mammon spotted the Warrior Pirates' ship and covered it with his Darkness Realm.
• Mammon seized two pirates and flew off with them, leaving the rest of the crew trapped in darkness as he planned to transport them in batches.
• About half an hour later, Dimon sat by a campfire on the shore outside Sleepy Town, eating grilled fish.

Dimon used Mammon to kill the Warrior Pirates and turn their blood into Longevity Wine, which restored his vitality and greatly strengthened his body. He animated the pirate ship as Ship Zuizui to navigate for him, and as the ship neared another island, he drank more Longevity Wine and looked ahead to growing stronger.

• Mammon drained two captured pirates to create Longevity Wine, and Dimon drank some, gaining vitality and strength.

• After two days, Dimon finished absorbing the wine's effects, tested his greatly increased physical strength, and drank another cup of Longevity Wine.

Dimon rented a house in Farn Town and hired Cedric, a former Cipher Pol trainee, to teach him the Six Powers. After a month of training, Dimon had mastered three techniques and learned that Cedric used the money to support orphans.

Dimon bought a Devil Fruit from Colonel Ed and rejected a partnership to hunt the Isaac Pirates, choosing instead to seek stronger targets. He continued toward the East Blue, where he hoped to obtain the Flame-Flame Fruit.

• Colonel Ed offered to team up against Isaac the 'Undying,' but Dimon declined and said he wanted to hunt a Supernova instead.

Dimon discovered that the sentient Den Den Mushi Fruit could inhabit a breeze, granting it telepathy and image transmission, and named the fusion Ain. Realizing Ain could propel a ship with wind, Dimon planned to cross the Calm Belt and ordered Mammon to protect the ship from Sea Kings.

• Dimon used Animation on the Den Den Mushi Fruit, then tested whether it could be eaten by A Wisp of Breeze; the fruit’s consciousness moved into the breeze.
• Dimon named the fusion Ain and learned it could send him sounds and images, but could not communicate telepathically with Mammon unless the target was a Den Den Mushi.
• Dimon found that the fruit’s original body had become an ordinary orange and learned Ain could return to it, while entering a human host carried risks because of the human’s strong sense of self.
• Dimon realized Ain could create enough wind to propel the ship and decided to take the Wave-Breaking Warrior through the Calm Belt.
• Dimon told Mammon to deal with the Sea Kings and keep the ship safe.
