Chapter 172 - Chapter 173: Preparing to Set Sail

"Hmm!"

Red Count nodded without saying much; he wasn't a talkative person by nature.

"Let's go back! To celebrate Red Count coming to spar with me, let's have a feast!"

Nox said.

Originally, Red Count didn't want to stay here. After all, he had lost, and staying would be a bit awkward.

But he couldn't resist Nox's insistence, so he followed Nox to his territory and held a grand feast there to celebrate.

Redfield himself didn't like crowded, lively, and noisy environments.

But feasts were an exception. After all, in such an environment, many people were excited, which made Redfield, who possessed Mind Reading and was sensitive to others' emotions, feel joyful as well.

"Captain, this match..."

Taking advantage of the drinking, Bullet and the others wanted to inquire about the outcome of the battle.

Although they had been watching the whole time, Nox and Red Count both stopped at the end, and neither of them fell.

Even though Red Count was at a disadvantage in the end, they were not qualified to judge the victory or defeat between such powerhouses.

"Red Count and I were just sparring this time, no winner or loser!"

Nox didn't mention winning or losing. It was just a spar, and he didn't lack the fame of defeating Red Count.

"Red Count, why did you come here alone? Come on, let's have a drink!!!"

"We competed in swordsmanship before, now let's compete in drinking!"

Nox said loudly, walking over to Redfield with two jars of wine.

"Come on, drink!!"

Red Count didn't say anything unnecessary, he opened the wine jar and started drinking.

"Alright, let's see who has better alcohol tolerance!!"

Nox also picked up a jar and started gulping it down.

The two of them sat there and kept drinking, one jar after another, with subordinates constantly bringing more wine jars.

It was already late at night, the entire feast had stopped, everyone was completely drunk, lying on the ground snoring freely.

Only the servants remained, quietly cleaning up the feast area.

Throughout the entire feast, only Nox and Red Count were still standing.

"Red Count, are you still alright? If not, just say so!"

Nox had no idea how many jars he had drunk, and his head felt dizzy.

"Who, who said I'm not alright? It's you, it's, it's you who can't handle it. Don't force yourself if you can't!"

Although Red Count was also very dizzy at this time, the alcohol was kicking in, and the wine jars in front of him seemed to be multiplying. But he couldn't say he couldn't handle it; no man could say he couldn't.

"You're the one who can't handle it! I'm the World's Greatest Swordsman, how could I not handle it? Come on!"

Nox swayed as he picked up a jar of wine and started drinking again.

"Come on, bring it on!"

Seeing this, Red Count also picked up a wine jar and started drinking, not wanting to be outdone.

"Ugh!!!"

"Crack!!!"

However, just as the two of them had drunk halfway, the wine jars in their hands fell down, and both of them vomited at the same time.

Perhaps they felt much better after vomiting, one of them leaned back and lay on the ground, falling asleep immediately.

The next morning, the morning sun was not hot or dazzling enough, just shining on Nox's face.

He only frowned, then raised his arm to block the sunlight and continued to sleep.

It wasn't until noon, under the scorching sun, that he felt a bit hot and thirsty from being exposed to the sun, and only then did he wake up from his deep sleep.

"Hahaha, Red Count, you were the one who fell down first yesterday!"

Sitting up and opening his sleepy eyes, he saw Red Count lying in front of him also awake. Suddenly, Nox burst into laughter.

"How is that possible? I clearly remember that you were the one who couldn't hold the wine jar steady and dropped it yesterday, and then you fell down after you vomited. I hadn't fallen down yet at that time!"

Red Count was naturally unconvinced by Nox's words.

"You must have been drunk and remembered it wrong. You were the one who couldn't help but vomit first, and then you lay back and fell asleep."

"Don't talk nonsense, you were clearly the one who fell down first."

"You were clearly the one who fell asleep first."

"You were clearly..."

Nox and Red Count, these two guys, had just woken up and were arguing about who fell down first last night.

"Forget it, I won't argue with you anymore. Anyway, I wasn't the one who fell down first."

"I'm leaving, I'll come back to spar with you later!"

Red Count felt that he couldn't win the argument with this scoundrel, so he simply got up, picked up his umbrella sword, and left.

He preferred to be alone and didn't stay in the same place for long.

"Hahaha, Red Count, you must remember what you said. I'm also looking forward to sparring with you again next time."

Nox laughed. Red Count's strength was formidable, and he still had great potential. He also wanted to spar with a stronger Red Count.

As his strength grew, fewer and fewer people could spar with him. That feeling of having nowhere to exert his strength, after a long time, felt stifling.

Marine Headquarters Marineford:

Today, many high-ranking Marine officers returned to Marineford, not because of a major enemy attack.

It was because Vice Admiral Zephyr was getting married. Although the wedding was held very low-key, only inviting some relatives and friends.

But as an Admiral, how low-key could it be?

As long as they were high-ranking Marine officers and had no urgent matters, they all chose to return to attend Zephyr's wedding.

"Hahaha, Zephyr, congratulations! I hope you can have a good son soon, as excellent as my son Dragon!"

Garp walked over, laughing heartily, holding a big red envelope in his hand, the handwriting on it was crooked and twisted, obviously it was Garp's own handwriting.

"Zephyr, congratulations, congratulations! Wishing you a hundred years of marital bliss and early birth of a precious child!"

"Zephyr, happy wedding! I also wish you and your wife a happy and fulfilling life!"

Sengoku and Vice Admiral Tsuru also walked over.

"Hahaha, thank you all, please take your seats quickly."

Zephyr's face was beaming with a happy smile. He was also very happy to receive the blessings of many colleagues.

Not only many high-ranking Marine officers, but even Fleet Admiral Kong came to be Zephyr's witness.

A happy wedding was thus held in Marineford.

After sobering up, Nox returned to his room and looked at the latest intelligence reports.

The major Pirate Crew in the New World had no major movements, they were all recuperating and expanding the scale of their Pirate Crew.

"Oh? Admiral Zephyr is married!"

"What a pity, it's a tragedy!"

Seeing this piece of intelligence, Nox was a little surprised and also a little emotional.

"Since there's nothing going on in the New World, let's go to the Four Seas. It's a good time to collect those things."

Nox said, stroking his chin. There were many treasures in the Four Seas, he didn't have time to get them before, but now was a good time to go and explore.

As soon as he said it, Nox immediately had his subordinates prepare the ship and various things.

"Athena, stop being busy with these things. Come on, Husband will take you on a trip."

Nox came to the General's residence office, looked at Athena who was still busy, and gently said, holding her slender waist.

"Husband, where are we going to travel?"

Hearing Nox's words, Athena happily sat on Nox's thighs, blinking her eyes and looking at Nox with joy.

"We're going to the Four Seas area this time."

Nox held the back of Athena's head and gave her a passionate French kiss.

"Mmm!!"

Athena's face was flushed with emotion, her cheeks red and still passionate.

"Father, Mama, are you kissing? Valent wants one too!"

However, just as the two were passionately kissing, a childish voice with a milky tone sounded.

"Ah!!!"

Startled, Athena quickly got off Nox's thighs and shyly glared at Nox.

Athena had never kissed in front of her child before, and she didn't want to teach her child bad habits.

"Valent, do you want to go on a trip with Father and Mama?"

Compared to Athena's shyness, Nox remained calm and picked up Valent, who had run over, and stroked his little head, saying.

"Yes!!"

Valent said obediently.

"Alright, go and call your older brothers and sisters back, and tell them we're going on a trip."

Nox smiled.

"Okay, Father."

Hearing Nox's words, Valent happily ran out.

On the edge of the Limitless Pirates' territory, a modified ship the size of a Vice Admiral's configuration quietly sailed out of this sea area.

This ship had been modified by several shipwrights, inlaid with Sea Stone, and the power system had been specially modified.

Although it still couldn't sail in the Calm Belt by itself, it could be propelled by artificial power.

And it used a design where small gears drove large gears, so it didn't require too much strength to make the ship sail quickly.

Therefore, Nox had allocated five hundred laborers on this ship for unforeseen needs.

At the same time, Nox also specifically asked Bullet and Karoo to come out with him.

Nox was wearing beach shorts and lying on a sun lounger, comfortably enjoying the sun. Athena occasionally fed him a grape.

Esdeath and the other little ones were excitedly playing on the deck. This kind of family bliss was so enjoyable.

"Nox, the Law Net's intelligence network in the New World has almost reached a bottleneck. Taking this opportunity, I want to expand the Law Net's intelligence network to the Four Seas area."

Shakky also came over at this time, wearing a sexy purple bikini.

Her flawless skin and golden ratio figure were fully displayed under the scanty bikini.

Law Net was the name of the intelligence network organization managed by Shakky, meaning a net that covered the sky and earth, infiltrating everywhere.

"If you want to develop it, then develop it. Anyway, we will have to expand the intelligence network to the Four Seas sooner or later."

Nox said, looking at Shakky's perfect figure.

"If that's the case, it will require a huge amount of funds."

Shakky peeled a grape and put it into Nox's mouth, hesitatingly said.

She was aware of the Limitless Pirates' current funds. Although they had plundered two Allied Nations, occupied many islands, and collaborated with the Sea Transport King in business.

However, the territories they occupied were for a short time, and many places had not been developed.
