"The Violence Pirates and Silver Axe Pirates have jointly attacked the Limitless Pirates' territory, and the two Pirate Crew are currently engaged in battle!"
"The Limitless Pirates split into two groups, sending three Executive Officers to intercept Brandon, while Captain Nox personally went to deal with Silver Axe!"
"The Flying Pirates, like the Limitless Pirates, split into two groups, with three Executive Officers dealing with John, and Golden Lion personally confronting World."
"The Whitebeard Pirates clashed with the Wang Zhi Pirates. The pirates under the Whitebeard Pirates were clearly weaker than those of the Wang Zhi Pirates, but Wang Zhi was no match for Whitebeard and didn't dare to confront him directly, instead using the advantage of his Speed-Speed Fruit to maneuver."
"The Big Mom Pirates stayed holed up in their territory, and even their expansion was only directed at some surrounding islands, without engaging with other large Pirate Crew."
"."
Although the Marine does not participate in the wars between Pirates in the New World, they have always had intelligence departments collecting information, which is then analyzed by the staff departments.
Fleet Admiral Kong, Sengoku, and others in the Marine have also been keeping a close eye on this intelligence.
"Latest news: The Limitless Pirates have defeated the Silver Axe Pirates. Silver Axe was defeated by Nox and fled. The Limitless Pirates are pursuing the victory and occupying the Silver Axe Pirates' territory!"
"Furthermore, the Violence Pirates are currently being held back by three Executive Officers of the Limitless Pirates, preventing them from further encroaching on the Limitless Pirates' territory."
Soon, the Marine sent over the latest intelligence.
"How is that possible? Three Executive Officers of the Limitless Pirates were able to stop Brandon!"
Kong said, somewhat shocked, upon hearing this news.
Back then, to apprehend Brandon, they dispatched three Admiral-level powerhouses, yet they couldn't take down Brandon in a short time.
Now Brandon has actually been stopped by three Executive Officers of the Limitless Pirates, and Nox only took two days to defeat Silver Axe. This Limitless Pirates is too strong, almost catching up to the Roger Pirates.
"Fleet Admiral, the information on the three Executive Officers who stopped Brandon has been collected."
"Bullet, Animal-type Mythical Zoan, Titan Kong ability user, skilled in body art. Specific age unknown, appears to be around fifteen."
"Ashura Doji, Animal-type Ancient Zoan, Emperor Crocodile Fruit ability user, Sword Master. Specific age unknown, appears to be in his twenties."
"Howard, Paramecia-type Impact Fruit ability user, former Great General of the Hasmu Kingdom. Later joined the Limitless Pirates after the Hasmu Kingdom was destroyed, 39 years old."
Vice Admiral Tsuru submitted the information on Bullet and the other two to Kong.
"How is it that these monstrous geniuses all appear among Pirates? Why doesn't our Marine have any!"
Seeing the information on Bullet and the other two, Kong sighed helplessly.
Although the Marine currently has three top-tier powerhouses in Garp, Sengoku, and Zephyr, there are no outstanding geniuses among the new generation of the Marine. The Marine is facing a talent gap.
"Looking at this situation, the Limitless Pirates are very likely to be one of the victors in this New World war."
Vice Admiral Tsuru said solemnly. Her other meaning was whether the Marine should intervene.
What the Marine and the World Government want to see is mutual conflict, mutual slaughter, and mutual internal consumption among the major Pirate Crew.
Rather than a king emerging through war, like the Rocks Pirates back then, a powerful pirate group capable of occupying the entire New World.
"Let's observe for now. It's not appropriate for us to act."
Kong waved his hand.
The great war in the New World continued. After defeating Silver Axe, Nox led his pirate group in continuous expansion.
As for Silver Axe, after losing to Nox the first time, he recovered from his injuries and blocked Nox's path once again.
However, no matter how unwilling he was, he still lost to Nox again.
He was very smart this time; he didn't fight until the last moment but saved enough stamina to escape.
Nox knew his goal was to try and slow down Nox's progress.
In response, Nox said nothing and continued to occupy the Silver Axe Pirates' territory.
Two months later, more than half of the Silver Axe Pirates' territory had been occupied by Nox, and Nox had occupied more than half of the territory in the central area of the New World.
This time, Nox and Silver Axe fought again for a day. At this moment, Silver Axe was covered in deep sword marks, looking bloody and even pathetic.
"Hahahaha, Nox, you won again this time!!"
Although Silver Axe was in a miserable state, he still laughed out loud. After speaking, he prepared to escape just like before.
"Hmph, Silver Axe, the reason I let you run before was to keep you as my whetstone."
"But now, you can no longer serve as a whetstone."
"Life Return: Extreme Limb Enhancement!"
Nox snorted coldly. The next moment, the muscles in his limbs surged again, veins bulged, and blood seeped from his pores.
"Bang!!!"
A crater dozens of meters wide and five meters deep instantly appeared on the ground beneath his feet, and Nox's figure disappeared from the spot in an instant.
"Three Elements Combined Mystery · Overlord Wrapped · Slaying God!"
Violent and frenzied blood-red lightning erupted from the Seven Star Sword, shooting straight into the sky. The invincible Sword Intent locked onto Silver Axe in front.
That powerful aura, capable of even slaying true gods, caused Silver Axe to lose focus for a moment.
"Arrogant brat, I am Silver Axe!!"
Seeing the naked killing intent in Nox's eyes, Silver Axe's pride was severely provoked.
He was very familiar with this move of Nox's and knew he couldn't dodge it, so he decided to meet it head-on!
"Great Strength Giant Axe!"
Silver Axe's giant axe, imbued with Busoshoku and Busoshoku Haki, plus its earth-shattering strength, met the Seven Star Sword.
"How is that possible!!"
Silver Axe felt the power transmitted from the Seven Star Sword, which was far stronger than any previous time, and his face instantly turned pale.
Intense vibrating pain spread from his hands throughout his body. There was no imagined evenly matched struggle or slight disadvantage, only merciless defeat.
After the sword and axe clashed, in just the blink of an eye, the giant axe was utterly defeated.
As Silver Axe was forcefully defeated by Nox, blood spurted out, and who knows how many ribs in his chest were broken by the backward impact of the giant axe. His entire body flew straight backward.
"This is bad!"
Silver Axe wanted to use this force to escape, but his Kenbunshoku Haki had already detected that Nox was no longer in his original position but had shot into the sky and was rapidly descending like a meteor.
He wanted to dodge, but after stabilizing his body, it was already too late!
"Three-Element Fusion Secret Art - Domineering Enchantment - Heaven and Earth Destruction Slash!"
Nox himself was like a falling meteor. The brilliant yet eerie Sword Intent on the Seven Star Sword caused the entire sky to dim.
The world-destroying aura on the sword body, even just leaking out, made it seem as if the entire island would collapse under this single sword strike!
Even though the sword hadn't fallen yet, Silver Axe below felt an unprecedented fatal threat, as if he would die if he couldn't block this strike!
"I am the Great Pirate Silver Axe!!"
Silver Axe covered his entire body with Busoshoku Haki, raised his giant axe, infused all his strength into the giant axe, and brought it down with a crash.
In an instant, a roar exploded across the entire sky. The aftermath, like an atomic bomb explosion, spread from the center of the island outwards.
Massive waves of air surged in all directions, stirring up giant waves hundreds of meters high that surged back into the Sea.
The entire island cracked apart because of this, and a shocking massive pit appeared at the center of the island.
Inside the great pit was like an abyss filled with blood-red lightning, with endless blood-red lightning gushing out.
Silver Axe was holding the giant axe with both hands at this moment, but the giant axe was already pressed against his body. Nox, holding the Seven Star Sword, was crushing Silver Axe step by step.
"Cough cough!!"
Silver Axe gritted his teeth and held on, but as a mouthful of fresh blood spurted from his mouth, Silver Axe became like a deflated balloon.
He was completely smashed into the ground by Nox's sword strike, and his entire body was shattered because of this sword.
Nox leaped up again, raising the Seven Star Sword high above his head. Limitless aura condensed onto the sword body, and the surrounding air was forcefully sucked and compressed around the Seven Star Sword like a vortex.
"Three-Element Fusion Secret Art - Domineering Enchantment - Domineering Country!"
As Nox swung his sword, the surrounding air was instantly vacuumed out, creating an incredibly violent shockwave that struck towards the bottom of the island with terrifying penetrating power.
Silver Axe, who had been smashed into the deep pit on the island, watched helplessly as the shockwave from above descended. He could only grit his teeth, cover himself with Busoshoku Haki, and raise his giant axe to block in front of him.
"Rumble!!!!"
The violent shockwave forcefully shattered Silver Axe's full-body defense. At this moment, Silver Axe felt as if all the bones in his body were instantly pulverized. The intense pain and severe injuries caused him to lose consciousness in an instant.
The island, already fragmented, instantly disintegrated under this terrifying shockwave.
The entire island completely sank into the seabed, even forming a massive underwater abyss, with endless seawater pouring into it.
Silver Axe was also swept into the seabed because of this. As a Devil Fruit ability user, he would undoubtedly die if nothing unexpected happened!
"Captain!!"
The giant eagle that was originally flying in the distant sky saw this scene and was incredibly shocked. His admired Captain had actually been defeated just like that!
But he didn't dare to fly over, because without his Captain there, he would be instantly killed if he went!
"Life Return, Release!"
Nox released the extreme enhancement on his limbs, then dove into the Sea, found Silver Axe using Kenbunshoku Haki, and pulled him out.
When he was swept into the seabed, Silver Axe had already woken up from his coma, but he couldn't get out of the seabed.
He had thought he would die because of this, but he didn't expect this guy Nox would actually come to save him.
"Bang!!"
After leaving the Sea, Nox threw Silver Axe onto the deck of the pirate ship.
"Cough cough!!!"
After coughing up the seawater, Silver Axe looked at Nox with confusion.
He didn't understand why Nox would save him. If it was based on their former camaraderie, he didn't believe it at all.
They were all Pirates; they wished the other party would die and not compete with them for territory!
