Moreover, Nue's body was surrounded by black and white curse power.
Without a word, as soon as Rhea transformed into the Nue form, he immediately put Sea Stone handcuffs on her, making her the third child lying on the ground.
"Rhea, the curse power is very strong and dangerous. You are not allowed to take off the Sea Stone until you can control that power."
Nox said seriously. The curse power was too dangerous; it was a power very close to rule-based abilities.
"Father, I understand!"
Rhea said weakly.
"Father, I want to choose the Logia Thunder Fruit."
Valent, seeing that his older brother Drake hadn't spoken, immediately stated his choice.
"Valent, are you sure?"
Nox asked earnestly.
"Father, I'm sure. I'll choose the Logia Thunder Fruit. This is the strongest Logia Thunder Fruit! How can I not choose it?"
Valent said seriously.
"Alright, I'll give you this Devil Fruit."
Nox handed the Thunder Fruit to Valent.
"Ugh!!!"
Valent had just taken a bite, and his stomach immediately churned, almost spitting out stomach acid.
"Valent, you have to finish the Devil Fruit, otherwise it will affect the future development of the fruit!" × 3
The three lying on the ground, Esdeath, looked at Valent's ugly expression and said in unison with great understanding.
"I'll eat!"
Valent glared fiercely at the three guys lying on the ground like salted fish, then opened his mouth wide and ate it.
"Crackling!!"
After eating, Valent's lower body suddenly turned into lightning, and his whole body floated in the air.
"Bang!!!"
However, before Valent could even feel the power of the Thunder Fruit, all his strength was suddenly drained as if he had been hollowed out, and he then fell to the ground to keep Rhea and the others company.
"Drake, don't you want to eat a Devil Fruit?"
Looking at the last child who had not made a choice for a long time, Nox asked curiously.
On this list, besides the four Devil Fruits that Rhea and the others had already chosen,
there were also the Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Great Monk form, Paramecia Door-Door Fruit, and Paramecia Comet Fruit, three Devil Fruits that he considered very powerful.
"Father, I feel that these Devil Fruits are not suitable for me. I'll wait for now and eat one when I encounter a suitable Devil Fruit in the future."
Drake said seriously.
As Father said, Devil Fruits are abilities that accompany one's entire life, so you can't choose casually. You must choose a fruit ability that is suitable for you.
"Okay, since you don't think it's suitable, then don't eat it for now. When Father finds other powerful Devil Fruits in the future, I'll show them to you to see if they are suitable."
Nox nodded. Since Drake didn't like the existing Devil Fruits, he didn't force him. Anyway, eating a Devil Fruit a few years later wouldn't be a problem.
"Esdeath, you little ones, since you have eaten Devil Fruits, you must start developing and cultivating well from now on."
"I will specifically set training tasks for you, and you must complete them every day, understand?"
Nox looked at his child seriously and said.
They were eight years old, not young anymore, and could start basic training.
As his child, they were destined to be extraordinary. Nox would teach them well and make them strong.
Otherwise, in this man-eating world, without powerful strength, there is no human rights at all!
"Father, we understand!" × 5
Esdeath and the others also understood that their happy childhood had ended, and what followed was a complex learning and training plan.
Next, Nox would arrange for his child to undergo physical and Devil Fruit training, followed by learning some basic etiquette, war knowledge, and various concepts.
His child could not become people who only had strong combat power but were lacking in other areas.
He wanted to train his child to be all-rounders, and even if they couldn't become all-rounders in the end, at least they wouldn't be single-celled organisms.
If he had to find a template for his child, that template should be Sengoku, who was both wise and brave!
Nox nodded and left with Shakky and the other two.
"Nox, Valent and the others are still too young."
After leaving the house, Athena felt a little heartache when she thought of the training plan that Nox had already partially customized.
After all, they were their child, and they were only seven or eight years old.
child from other families were enjoying their beautiful childhood and the love of their parents at this age.
Their child, however, had begun such heavy training and learning, which was a bit too cruel for them.
"Athena, they are our child, destined to be extraordinary from birth, and destined not to be the same as child from ordinary families."
"Our Limitless Pirates will be handed over to them in the future. If they are too weak, they will not be able to bear the heavy burden of the Limitless Pirates."
Nox patted Athena's shoulder and said. As a father, how could he not want his child to have a better life?
But this world did not belong to him, and he could only adapt to this world.
"Sister, don't worry, Rhea and the others are naturally stronger than others and will grow up quickly."
Shakky also came over to comfort Athena.
As Nox's child, Rhea and the others, whose bodies had been transformed by the Sword God Body Tempering Art, coupled with the bloodline of vampires,
allowed his child to possess very strong talent, even stronger than Nox's talent before he went to sea.
With talent as the foundation, plus the Devil Fruits given by Nox, as long as they were not lazy or courting death, becoming strong was a certainty.
"By the way, Nox, I have already spread the Limitless Sword Style and the detailed explanation of the Rokushiki that you asked me to spread throughout the New World."
Shakky continued.
"Then, the next step is to spread it to the first half of the Grand Line and the Four Seas."
Nox nodded and said.
"Nox, the Rokushiki is fine, but why spread our Limitless Sword School's Limitless Sword Style?"
Lesley asked curiously.
It should be known that although the Limitless Sword Style that was spread out was only a simplified version of the Limitless Sword School's sword style, only below Sword Master,
this sword style was personally revised by Nox back then, and even after being simplified, it was definitely not weaker than any sword style in the world.
She couldn't understand why such a valuable thing was being spread out for free. Shouldn't good things be kept for oneself?
"Husband, are you trying to improve the strength of the entire world, create more strong people in the entire world, and cause turmoil in the entire world because of these newly appeared strong people?"
Athena thought for a while and guessed.
With the Wisdom Fruit, she seemed to quickly figure out the key issue.
"Hahahaha, that's right, it's exactly as Athena thought."
"There is too much darkness and oppression in this world. The weak can only be bullied and are powerless to resist."
"But one day, when they suddenly gain powerful strength, that power will drive them to resist, and even rely on their strength to kill those who once oppressed them."
"And most of these people are commoners, slaves, and those without power or influence. Once they do such things, they will inevitably be wanted by the Marine and the World Government."
"At that time, they can only go out to sea as Pirates. The number of Pirates will increase as a result, indirectly increasing the overall strength of the Pirate groups and weakening the power of the Marine and the World Government."
Nox laughed.
Limitless Sword Style, even commoners can practice it. As long as they persevere for a few years, they can have a certain level of strength.
Rokushiki is a body art that surpasses ordinary people. Only those with strong physiques can Training it, which also provides an opportunity for those with excellent talent but no body art techniques to grow further.
These two Training methods, perhaps only one person in ten thousand can learn them, but one in ten thousand is still a considerable probability compared to billions of people.
Perhaps, in another seven or eight years, the overall combat power of the world will become higher because of the two Training methods spread by Nox.
As long as they possess powerful strength, many people will not be content with mediocrity or being oppressed. They will resist.
When they face forces they cannot resist, they also have the confidence to go to sea.
Nox never concealed his ambitions from his women, and they all clearly knew how great their Husband's ambitions were.
So they all silently supported Nox behind the scenes.
"Nox, don't worry, I will soon spread the Limitless Sword Style and the Rokushiki throughout the world."
Shakky said.
Holy Land Mary Geoise:
"The Donquixote Family has removed the Celestial Dragons' exclusive chips and completely severed ties with us!"
Saint Warcury said solemnly.
Hearing this, the other Gorosei all had gloomy faces. This was simply a humiliation and foolishness for them as Celestial Dragons!
Even those fools who were fostered in their homes were not that stupid, willing to give up their Celestial Dragon status and willingly become lowly commoners!
"Since they have given up, then let them give up!"
"However, this matter must not be spread. When they die, we will destroy all the islands where they are located!"
Finance War God Nasujuro Saint said.
Even if the Donquixote Family was no longer Celestial Dragons, they were once Celestial Dragons, so they would not do it themselves.
Instead, they would wait for those lowlifes to kill them, and then they would kill those lowlifes, completely erasing this history that made them feel ashamed.
"Seconded!"
"Seconded!"
"Seconded!"
"."
"Captain, Captain, I succeeded!"
Scientist Yumazu came to Nox excitedly with a knife.
"Which of your experiments succeeded?"
Nox asked somewhat confused.
"Captain, I successfully merged the Great Grade Sword Ama no Habakiri!"
Yumaz excitedly handed the successfully merged Ama no Habakiri to Nox.
"Clang!!!"
Nox took Ama no Habakiri and carefully felt the newborn Ama no Habakiri.
Yumaz used the power of the Merge-Merge Fruit to re-merge a piece of ore capable of forging a Great Grade Sword into Ama no Habakiri.
"The blade is half a foot longer, the width is one finger wider, the weight is five kilograms heavier, the sharpness is even greater, and it is more durable."
"Not bad, in terms of overall power, Ama no Habakiri is 50% stronger."
Nox looked at the Ama no Habakiri in his hand with satisfaction.
This sword, known for being able to cut through the sky, became even stronger after being enhanced!
"Yumaz, you did very well. From now on, any funding for experiments you apply for will be given to Athena. As long as it's not too demanding, she will agree!"
Nox looked at Yumaz with relief and said.
This guy's Devil Fruit development has finally made a breakthrough. Now that he can merge and enhance Great Grade Swords, it shouldn't take many years to achieve Supreme Grade Swords.
"Thank you, Captain!"
Yumaz's eyes lit up when he heard Nox's words.
He loved scientific research, and Nox's words made him admire him immensely!
"Don't be too happy yet. Next, you need to complete the merging and enhancement of Ashura Doji's di mie sword."
"After that, I have three more Great Grade Swords here: Enma, Nidai Kitetsu, and Black Blade Shusui, which also need you to complete their merging and enhancement."
Nox said.
Compared to forging new Great Grade Swords with ore, Nox preferred to merge and enhance existing Great Grade Swords to make them stronger.
In the world of Pirates, quality is always more important than quantity.
"Captain, I understand!"
Hearing that there were four more Supreme Grade Swords that needed to be merged and enhanced, Yumaz's face turned pale, but he still agreed.
God knows it took him a whole month to complete the merging and enhancement of this Ama no Habakiri.
The merging and enhancement was not completed in one go, but rather he would stop whenever he was exhausted from merging and enhancing, and then continue after his strength recovered.
It took him a full month to complete the enhancement of Ama no Habakiri.
This time, he made up his mind to first complete Ashura Doji's di mie sword, and then slowly enhance the remaining three. He absolutely would not exhaust himself too much, as the Captain didn't use these three swords anyway.
"By the way, Yumaz, have you tried fusing things other than ore?"
Nox asked curiously.
"Captain, I've tried, but many failed. For example, fusing watermelon and ore failed, but fusing different ores succeeded. However, fusing watermelon and apple succeeded."
"Also, I tried fusing animals like chickens, pigs, cows, and humans with inanimate objects like ore and fruits, and they all failed. However, I did have some successes when fusing biological things with each other, like chickens with pigs, and humans with cows, although some also failed."
"I tested the reason for the failures and found that it was because their soul consciousnesses conflicted during the fusion, causing the merged creatures to have confused minds and become idiots."
"So I came to a conclusion: fusing similar inanimate objects can succeed, fusing inanimate objects and living beings fails, and fusing living beings with living beings has a chance of succeeding."
Yumaz said.
"Yumaz, the reason for the failures may not just be the repulsion between living beings and inanimate objects, it might also be that your fruit development is not strong enough, which is why it failed."
"In the future, develop your ability well. The power of the Merge-Merge Fruit should be more than just this."
Nox patted Yumaz on the shoulder and said.
Paramecia Devil Fruits are very powerful fruits. Theoretically, they have infinite possibilities, but whether this theory can be realized depends on an individual's talent and ability.
Nox had previously told Yumaz the development direction and some theories of the Merge-Merge Fruit, but Yumaz just couldn't develop it. This is a reflection of individual talent and ability.
Not everyone can play with the String-String Fruit like Doflamingo, developing it to the point of Awakening.
The people who appeared in the original story who could develop their fruits to the Awakening level, like Law, Kid, Doflamingo, and Luffy, were all monsters, but Nox hasn't seen that monstrous aptitude in Yumaz yet.
Since the last phone call with John, the Limitless Pirates' Thomas Shipyard has received many orders.
And with a steady supply of resources, the shipwrights at Thomas Shipyard worked overtime every day, building thirty ships in just a few months.
Of course, they were all wooden ships, and half of them were modified old ships with new propulsion systems added.
These ships were all ordered by the great Pirates of the New World from Nox. After getting these ships, they couldn't wait to rush into the Calm Belt. It was proven that they could indeed sail in the Calm Belt!
This action instantly made Thomas Shipyard famous throughout the world, and many orders immediately flooded into Thomas Shipyard again, with even more orders coming from the Four Seas!
"The Calm Belt, this natural barrier, has actually been completely shattered by Thomas Shipyard!"
"Ships that can carry the New World were born from Thomas Shipyard!"
"The era of sailing the Calm Belt has finally arrived!"
