However, the [Sword God Body Tempering Art] was tailor-made for his specific conditions and was not suitable for others. Furthermore, tempering required going through various acupoints and the like.
In the World of Pirates, there was no concept of acupoints. He had also examined his own body and compared it to others, and the result was that he could clearly locate the acupoints in his own body.
But in other people's bodies, the corresponding acupoints could not be found, so others simply couldn't learn the [Sword God Body Tempering Art].
As a result, he later simplified the [Sword God Body Tempering Art], transforming it into a Haki body tempering technique that everyone in the World of Pirates could learn.
Although this Haki body tempering technique was far inferior to the [Sword God Body Tempering Art], in the World of Pirates, it was superior to even the most top-tier Haki body tempering techniques.
For this, he even specifically named the simplified version of the [Sword God Body Tempering Art], calling it [Overlord Body].
[Overlord Body] has five layers, corresponding to skin, flesh, meridians, bones, and internal organs respectively. Nox handed over the corresponding level techniques to his Executive Officers.
Not everyone was like Nox, able to temper all parts of their body with Haki at the same time, so they would only choose one or two parts of their body for Haki tempering.
Chinjao's Cone Head was clearly a combination of skin and flesh, without bone. Otherwise, when his Cone Head was flattened, Chinjao's skull would have shattered, and he would have died!
"Captain, thank you so much!"
"I've decided, except for some promising youngsters left in Flower Country, all of our Eight Treasure Marine will join the Limitless Pirates."
"And the treasure accumulated by our Eight Treasure Marine over the years, I will only keep some for my descendants, and the rest will be offered to you, Captain."
Hearing Nox's words, Chinjao hugged Nox's thigh again, weeping with joy. This Captain was simply too good to him.
This Haki body tempering technique was simply a divine technique to him. After this incident, what he feared most was his Cone Head being flattened.
After all, if he didn't have his Cone Head, his strength would be greatly diminished.
"Alright, you are an Executive Officer of my Limitless Pirates, and it is right for me to help you. As for the treasure of your Eight Treasure Marine, just give me half, and you can keep the rest."
Nox didn't have much thought about the treasure of the Eight Treasure Marine. After all, his own wealth was already sufficient, and it would only increase in the future, so he completely looked down on the small amount of treasure the Eight Treasure Marine had.
He took half just to put Chinjao at ease.
Most importantly, Chinjao was now an Executive Officer of the Limitless Pirates. He took good care of his own people. That was the wealth accumulated by the Eight Treasure Marine over generations, and he couldn't bear to take it all.
"Cough cough, Chinjao, this is Bullet. Like you, he is an Executive Officer of the Limitless Pirates. He is a body art expert. You should exchange ideas more often in the future."
Seeing that Chinjao still refused to let go of his thigh, Nox suppressed the urge to split the guy in half and introduced Bullet to Chinjao.
"Hello Chinjao, my name is Bullet. You are strong, let's have a fight!"
Bullet didn't waste any time and immediately challenged him.
"Hahaha, good, I also want to see how hard the fists of the Devil Titan are!"
Hearing Bullet's words, Chinjao immediately let go of Nox's thigh and looked at Bullet with burning eyes.
He had been scared by Nox twice, and now that he encountered the famous Devil Titan of the New World, he naturally wanted to regain the ground he had just lost on the other party.
In the previous great battle, Bullet had shown extremely terrifying strength and potential. Although he was not yet comparable to top-tier powerhouses.
But he was able to kill an Army General candidate and also hold back Vice Admiral Zephyr with Ashura Doji. This earned him a resounding nickname from the Marine: Devil Titan!
"Hahaha, come on, let me also see how strong your Cone Head is!"
Bullet excitedly found an empty space with Chinjao and prepared to have a great battle.
He didn't dare to underestimate Chinjao. Although he was knocked down by his Captain's punch, he estimated that he himself couldn't take that punch from the Captain.
Nox stayed in Flower Country for another five days. Like in the Heptarchy, after secretly setting up a branch of the Law Net there, he left with Chinjao and some of his Eight Treasure Marine.
After finishing the voyage, Nox immediately returned to the New World through the Calm Belt. The Marine and World Government had no idea that Nox had quietly come to their base of operations and left again.
"Chinjao, I have a Dragon-Dragon Fruit, Ancient Species, Unicorn form Devil Fruit here. It's very suitable for you."
"After eating it, the hardest horn on the head of the Unicorn can overlap with your Cone Head, making your Cone Head harder. It will also give you the various enhancements of an Ancient Species Animal-Type."
After returning to his territory, Nox took out the Devil Fruit that he thought was suitable for Chinjao and gave it to him.
Chinjao was a body art expert, and most of his strength was in his Cone Head. This Ancient Species Unicorn could be said to be tailor-made for him.
"Wooohooohooo, Captain, you are too good to me, I love this Devil Fruit so much!"
Hearing this, Chinjao immediately pounced over and hugged Nox's thigh, crying again.
He had never met such a good person in his life. Not only did he help him restore his Cone Head and teach him the method of Haki tempering.
He also gave him such a precious and suitable Devil Fruit. It was a great fortune for him, Chinjao, to meet such a good person!
"Chinjao, if you want it, eat it quickly!"
Nox said with a dark face. He had never seen anyone who liked his thigh so much.
It would be fine if his child hugged his thigh, but the key was that this old guy Chinjao was already over forty years old, while he was only in his twenties. If someone saw this, it would be extremely embarrassing!
"Wooohooohooohooo, I'll eat it now!"
Then Chinjao picked up the Devil Fruit and ate it completely in a few bites, without even showing a hint of nausea. Nox now even doubted whether the Devil Fruit he gave him was fake, or if Chinjao had a problem with his taste buds?
"Roar!!!"
After eating the Devil Fruit, Chinjao immediately transformed into a ten-meter-tall Unicorn, but the next moment he immediately returned to his human form and lay on the ground.
"Chinjao, later you go and practice with Bullet and the others. Try to master the Human-Beast form as soon as possible. Only then can you add the horn of the Unicorn to your Cone Head."
"Oh, and this is Gravity Homies. You can ask Bullet how to use it when the time comes."
Nox said after taking the Sea Stone handcuffs off Chinjao.
"Thank you, Captain, I'll go now."
Chinjao picked up the Gravity Homies and excitedly ran off to find Bullet. He was already impatient to see if his Cone Head had become harder.
Nox came to the weapon factory in Wano Country to inspect it. When Neil saw Nox, he immediately ran over excitedly with a sword in his hand. Anyone who didn't know would have thought he was going to assassinate Nox.
"Captain, Captain, I succeeded! Look, this is the weapon I forged!"
Neil, in his minotaur appearance, was shouting while running. Nox couldn't help but notice him.
"Oh? You succeeded in forging a Great Grade Sword?"
Nox took the Great Grade Sword that Neil handed over. This was a double-edged sword, and its appearance was very similar to the Seven Star Sword. It could be said to be a replica of the Seven Star Sword.
However, this Great Grade Sword had no special abilities. It was only the same as a Great Grade Sword in terms of sharpness and toughness.
Just like the Great Grade Sword Wado Ichimonji that Zoro held in the original work, it was balanced and peaceful, and anyone could use it.
Unlike swords with strong wills like Enma and Nidai Kitetsu, which needed to be subdued before they could be used.
"That's right, Captain, this is the Great Grade Sword I forged!"
Neil said proudly.
Three years ago, he could forge Good Grade Swords. After three years, he could forge Great Grade Swords. This was rare in the history of Wano Country.
"Not bad, what's its name?"
Nox asked.
"Captain, I forged this by imitating your Seven Star Sword. How about calling it Second Generation Seven Star Sword?"
Neil said excitedly.
"It can't bear the name Second Generation Seven Star Sword yet. When you can forge Great Grade Swords with special abilities like Enma and Nidai Kitetsu in the future, then use this name."
"I see a streak of flowing light running through the entire blade. How about calling it Flowing Light?"
Nox said.
Even the Nidai Kitetsu had the power of Oni. If the Second Generation Seven Star Sword was worse than the Nidai Kitetsu, where would his Seven Star Sword's face be?
"Okay, the name Captain gives is always nice."
Neil said honestly.
"When did you learn to flatter, kid? The fact that you forged a Great Grade Sword this time shows that your craftsmanship has improved. So, your treatment will be doubled on top of the original. Work hard, and in the future, I hope you can forge a Supreme Grade Sword!"
Nox patted Neil's shoulder and said.
He increasingly felt that this kid Neil had the potential to become a divine craftsman. In just five years, he went from an ordinary blacksmith to being able to forge Great Grade Swords.
Although part of it was due to Nox's deliberate training, it could also be said that he was a forging genius, worth cultivating well.
"Thank you, Captain, I will work hard!"
Neil said excitedly after hearing Nox's words. His treatment was already higher than everyone else in the weapon factory, and now it was doubled again. To him, it was simply sky-high.
Seeing that this kid Neil was still so honest, Nox was much more relieved and walked out of the weapon factory with satisfaction, holding Flowing Light.
"Husband, the military factory and other factories need to be expanded recently. Will they still be built in the original location?"
After returning home, Athena specifically came back to rest with Nox.
"Don't build in the original location. There will definitely be more and more factories in the future, and continuing to build in the original location is not suitable."
"Go to a remote island in the Calm Belt closest to our territory and build them there. Don't put all your eggs in one basket."
"Also, in the future, some of the Sea Stone transportation should be sent to the Calm Belt first before being transported back, even if it adds some transportation work."
Nox thought for a moment and said.
If he put everything in Wano Country or the Limitless Sea, he was afraid that the World Government would find out and launch a strong attack on Wano Country.
Or rather, he wanted to create a false impression that some of the core of the Limitless Pirates was in the Calm Belt, not in the Limitless Sea.
That way, even if the World Government investigated, they would go to the Calm Belt to investigate, instead of putting all their focus on the Limitless Sea.
