At that time, he had already sworn that he would wholeheartedly dedicate himself to the Limitless Pirates, pledge loyalty to Nox, and never betray him until death!
"Hmm, keep up the good work. I look forward to the day you can enhance my Seven Star Sword."
Nox patted Yumaz and said.
After speaking, Nox left.
"So Captain wants me to enhance the Seven Star Sword. If the Seven Star Sword becomes stronger, then Captain's strength will also greatly increase. I must work hard!"
After hearing Nox's words, Yumaz became excited.
Everything he had now was given by Nox. If he could help Nox, he would never refuse anything.
Hearing that Nox was going to give him his Seven Star Sword for fusion and enhancement, Yumaz felt a sense of inexplicable pressure and trust.
"Let me see the gains this time!"
After visiting the newly established laboratory, Nox came to his private treasury with some anticipation.
He had occupied the World Government member state Kingdom of Baikal this time, and he had gained a large amount of treasure.
The value of the ordinary treasures combined was about one hundred billion Berries. It has to be said that it is indeed a World Government member state, a country that has existed since the Rocks era. Its foundation is indeed solid.
Among these treasures, there were more than twenty billion Berries alone, and the rest were other valuable treasures.
Nox, as before, took out all the Berries to develop the Pirate Crew or Shakky's intelligence network.
Those treasures with collection value were put into the treasury for storage, because in the future, Berries will depreciate, while other gold and silver jewelry, gold and silver, famous swords, precious ores, Devil Fruit, and the like will continue to appreciate.
So it's better to spend those Berries and keep the previous ones for now.
Nox didn't care about the other treasures; what he cared about were famous swords and Devil Fruit.
There were no famous swords or precious ores in the Kingdom of Baikal, but there were Devil Fruit.
"Paramecia Type: Strawberry-Strawberry Fruit!"
"Paramecia Type: Cloth-Cloth Fruit!"
"Paramecia Type: Glass-Glass Fruit!"
"Regular Zoan Type: Chicken-Chicken Fruit, Iron Rooster Form!"
"Regular Zoan Type: Mouse-Mouse Fruit, Vole Form!"
"Regular Zoan Type: Bug-Bug Fruit, Ladybug Form!"
"Zoan Type: Bat-Bat Fruit, Ancient Zoan, Night Bat Form!"
"Only the Ancient Zoan Night Bat Fruit is useful; the others are trash fruits!"
Looking at the seven Devil Fruit he had identified, Nox was speechless for a moment, then surprised and said.
An Ancient Zoan Devil Fruit, if given to someone with good potential, is enough to create a person of ordinary Executive Officer level in the Limitless Pirates.
Just like Karoo, Karoo's talent is not strong, but with his Ancient Zoan Sword-Wing Tiger, as long as he is not slack, he will eventually reach the strength of the current Ashura Doji.
"Currently, there are too few people with potential in the Limitless Pirates. Many of the Devil Fruit in my hands are not suitable for anyone."
Nox sighed helplessly and said.
He had many top-grade Devil Fruit in his hand, but he couldn't find anyone with the corresponding talent to eat them.
There was a saying that even a good-for-nothing could soar if they ate a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit.
But if Nox were to give a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit to a good-for-nothing with no talent, he wouldn't be so generous.
He would only let people with strong talent eat Devil Fruit with potential. For those who have no talent and no value, Nox would rather keep the Devil Fruit than give it to them.
"Nox, I have found the Sleepy Ancient Town that you asked me to investigate a long time ago. It's on a remote small island in the New World, and very few people know about it."
After Nox came out of the treasury, Shakky walked over and told Nox this good news.
"Sleepy Ancient Town, finally found it!"
Hearing Shakky's words, Nox couldn't help but be happy. The Sleepy Ancient Town hides the Devil Fruit that can grant eternal life!
This is the Devil Fruit he prepared for his future. He will only consider eating a Devil Fruit when his strength reaches its peak and he can no longer advance.
And his first choice for eating a Devil Fruit is naturally this one that is very compatible with him and comes with the effect of eternal life.
"Shakky, it's been a long time since our family went on a trip, hasn't it? In a while, we'll take Rhea and those little guys on a trip and have a good time."
Nox looked at Shakky, who was wearing black stockings and a black tight-fitting suit, and said.
"We haven't been out for a long time, but is now not the right time?"
Shakky felt Nox's burning gaze and couldn't help but blush and said.
Although they had been an old couple for so many years, Shakky was still relatively easy to blush, especially when facing Nox's naked gaze, which made her feel hot all over.
At the same time, she didn't know why Nox chose to go out and play at this time.
The New World is not peaceful now. Various Pirate Crew are fighting for territory, and conflicts can happen at any time. The Marine may also come to trouble them at any time because of the Allied Nations Kingdom of Baikal.
"There's nothing wrong with it. With your Mirror-Mirror Fruit, we can come back anytime. There's absolutely no need to be afraid of this."
After speaking, Nox had already reached out and wrapped his arm around Shakky's slender waist.
"Okay, since that's the case, let's go play."
Shakky said with a red face.
After speaking, Nox chuckled and began...
A night of spring breeze and several joys.
After more than an hour of shamelessness, Nox began to select a group of loyal people to go out to sea with him.
A significantly modified large ship was used as Nox's travel vessel. This ship was originally a Vice Admiral-level ship sent by Sea Transport King Umit.
After Nox had it modified, its sailing speed was no less than that of an Admiral-configured warship.
Besides the people going out, only Nox, Ashura Doji, Karoo, and a few other confidants knew that Nox had left his base camp.
Anyway, Nox didn't need to intervene in the affairs of the Limitless Pirates; the general direction was controlled by Nox.
But the specific operations were managed by the management personnel trained by Lesley, and Lesley often managed remotely with Athena.
Now Lesley has gradually delegated some of these management tasks to Athena, while she focuses more on medical research and fruit development.
"Wow, is this the Sea? It's too big!"
After going out to sea, Esdeath excitedly rushed to the side of the deck and said happily as she looked at the endless blue Sea ahead.
"It's too big, too big, Sister! This is really the Sea!"
Drake and the others also excitedly ran over.
This was their first time seeing the Sea. After all, whether they lived on Amazon Lily or in Wano Country before, they had never seen the Sea.
Naturally, they were very excited to see the Sea for the first time.
However, after they stayed on the Sea for a few days, they would probably not be so excited.
Nox lay under the sun umbrella on the deck, wearing swimming trunks, and ate the banana that Lesley had cut for him with a look of enjoyment.
"Nox, help me apply some sunblock!"
Athena, wearing a bikini swimsuit, lay on a lounge chair next to him and said shyly.
"No problem, coming right up!"
Hearing this, Nox looked over and saw the fair and tender skin. He unhesitatingly picked up the transparent sunblock next to him and began to apply it on Athena's smooth back.
"Nox, I want some too!" × 2
Subsequently, Shakky and Lesley also imitated Athena and asked Nox to help them.
"Lie down, I'm coming!"
Nox rubbed his hands, evenly applied the sunblock in his hands, and then began to perform another unique skill for the two women. Combined with massage techniques, it allowed them to relax their bodies and minds like never before.
Just like that, Nox took his family on a joyful journey towards the direction of Sleepy Ancient Town on the Sea.
Whenever they encountered an island, they would stop to replenish supplies, then have a good time for a day, and place a few mirrors there by the way.
Fortunately, Nox and the others had specially put on makeup and disguised themselves, and they didn't have any special markings on them, so no one discovered their identities along the way.
After traveling for more than half a month, they finally arrived at Sleepy Ancient Town, a small town on the edge of the New World.
Sleepy Ancient Town has a long history.
The way this small town survives is through breeding. A normal small island breeds crops and meat animals, while this island is relatively dark and humid due to its special environment, making it a natural bat breeding ground.
Bats have medicinal value, and even their feces are a medicinal material.
The residents of Sleepy Ancient Town survive by raising bats, collecting bat feces, and trading unqualified bats to merchants.
Every month, a merchant ship comes over, carrying a large amount of grain, daily necessities, and some small items to sell to the residents of Sleepy Ancient Town. When the merchant ship leaves, it takes away the medicinal materials purchased from here.
Because their expenses and income are roughly proportional, this makes it difficult for the strong men on this island to accumulate enough savings.
This has led to a large number of men going out to work, leaving mostly some elderly people and women on this island.
This is also the reason why Shakky was able to find out the location of Sleepy Ancient Town, because those men who went out provided the location of Sleepy Ancient Town.
Today, a huge ship arrived at Sleepy Ancient Town, this remote small town, and more than five hundred fierce-looking people holding swords and knives disembarked from the ship, looking very difficult to mess with.
If it weren't for the fact that the large ship didn't have a pirate flag, the people in the town would have thought that pirates had come to plunder their small town.
Even so, many residents in the town quickly ran away and hid in their homes.
Arik Tapa, the town mayor, rushed over immediately after hearing about this.
"Respected sir, I am the mayor of this small town. Is there anything I can help you with?"
Arik Tapa saw Nox, who was leading the group, and immediately rushed over and said.
