"Hahahahaha, Big Brother, watch us! We will definitely take down those territories and become one of the great Pirate Crew in the New World!"
When Queen's obese body laughed, his fat rippled, making one's scalp tingle.
After escaping from the MADS laboratory, he naturally met Kaido. After Kaido beat him up, Queen immediately acknowledged Kaido as his Big Brother.
"Queen, with that fat body of yours, don't get beaten into a sieve!"
King said mockingly.
When World previously bombed Holy Land Mary Geoise, King narrowly escaped and fled from Holy Land Mary Geoise along with a large number of slaves.
He happened to meet Kaido after he failed his challenge against Silver Axe. Kaido helped King fend off the World Government personnel who were chasing him, so King joined the Beasts Pirates.
"Bastard, I'm handsome, not fat!"
Being called fat, Queen was furious.
"Hahahahahaha, Father, are you going to fight? I want to go too!"
Just then, a cute little girl with two horns on her head and holding a spiked club taller than herself ran over. This was Kaido's daughter, Yamato.
After Kaido didn't occupy Wano Country, didn't exile his daughter to Oni Island, and was free from Kozuki Oden's influence, the relationship between Yamato and Kaido improved significantly.
"You're too young, let's talk about it when you grow up."
"Queen, King, organize the men and come with me immediately to seize World's territory!"
Kaido ignored Yamato's antics and walked out of the conference room with his subordinates.
"Argh argh argh argh argh, you hateful old man! I'll definitely flatten you in the future!"
Seeing that Kaido ignored her, Yamato was so angry that she smashed the conference table with her spiked club!
Kaido wasn't the only ambitious Pirate in the World; the great Pirate Crew in the New World also wanted to occupy World's territory.
After all, the largest and most prosperous territories in the New World were occupied by the Flying Pirates and the Limitless Pirates, so they also desired World's territory.
There were also those ambitious rookie Pirates who wanted to take this opportunity to secure a place in the New World.
Thus, the long-lost peace in the New World was broken. Rookie Pirates and established great Pirate Crew clashed over the territories left behind by World.
Limitless Sea:
After Nox returned to the Limitless Sea, he immediately did as he had told Golden Lion before, moving many important factories and laboratories from Wano Country to the Calm Belt.
Even Nox and his women's residences and office areas were all moved, leaving behind only a facade, making the World Government still believe that this was the core of the Limitless Pirates.
There was nothing he could do. After witnessing the power of uranus, Nox truly didn't dare to put his base in a place the World Government could find.
Even for the base in the Calm Belt, Nox planned to change it every five years and absolutely not let the World Government find it.
Nox valued and prioritized his and his family's life safety very highly.
Who knew if, after Nox caused huge losses to the World Government, or angered Imu, or if Imu had a sudden whim, they might try firing a uranus cannon at Nox's base in Wano Country.
"Husband, while the World Government is in chaos and its control over the World is weakened, Law Net plans to establish an overt organization called the Quicksand Guild."
"The guild's system will be customized according to the system we discussed before. I believe that once our Quicksand Guild is established, it will expand rapidly."
After Nox returned, Shakky excitedly ran over.
The Hunter Guild that appeared in the original work, Nox hasn't seen it yet and doesn't know who established it.
The Hunters of the Hunter Guild specialize in hunting Pirates. If done well, not only can they collect bounties from the Hunter Guild, but they can also get another reward from the Marine.
Therefore, the Hunter Guild is very popular among some powerful solo practitioners.
As for the Quicksand Guild mentioned by Shakky, its business includes not only issuing tasks to hunt Pirates but also issuing other bounty tasks.
For example, some people post tasks at the Hunter Guild, the Hunter Guild advertises the tasks for the people in the Hunter Guild to see, and then the Hunters accept the tasks.
After the Hunter completes the task, the Hunter Guild will issue the reward to the Hunter, thus ending the task.
The tasks issued can be anything like transportation, protection, treasure hunting, assassination, etc. As long as the price is right, the Hunter Guild will issue the task, and the Hunters will execute it.
The key is assassination tasks. Just like the bounties issued by the World Government, the bounties issued by the Hunter Guild are not limited to Pirates; they can also be Marines, nobles, World Government officials, or even the Gorosei.
"The Quicksand Guild can be established. Let's do this: first establish it in the Four Seas. After a few years of stable development, it will extend to the first half of the Grand Line. As for whether to enter the New World, we'll discuss that later."
Nox mused.
Now that the World Government is in chaos, it is indeed the best time to develop the guild.
"I've already completed the preliminary preparations for the guild. That child Drake doesn't want to rely on your reputation to venture out into the Sea, so I thought of letting him become a Hunter for the Quicksand Guild."
Shakky said happily.
Gaenie, like Hawkeye, likes to travel alone and challenge various Great Swordsmen everywhere.
However, when Drake went out to train, he took some friends from the Limitless Sea whom he played with as a child to train with him. For example, that kid Enel always liked to follow Drake since he was a child.
"If Drake and Gaenie like to go out and play, let them. Just make sure they don't reveal their identities."
Nox said nonchalantly.
When educating his child, as long as it doesn't lead to stagnation in their strength due to other matters, Nox generally doesn't restrict his child. Instead, he lets his child do what they like.
Even though Nox very much hopes to strengthen the Limitless Pirates' power, he would not force his child to do things they dislike because of it.
After all, as a Father, who doesn't wish for their child to be happy?
As Nox's child, they are destined to be extraordinary in the future because of their identities. So, before their identities are exposed, let them do some things they like.
After Nox and Shakky discussed the Quicksand Guild for a while longer, Shakky couldn't wait to get started on it.
Meanwhile, Nox also came to Soros's laboratory.
"Soros, how is it? Have you finished digesting Vegapunk's previous experimental results?"
Nox asked when he saw Soros.
"Captain, Vegapunk is truly a genius! He actually achieved so many results."
"I have now read through all of Vegapunk's results. I have a good understanding of the technology involved, and I just need to actually redo these experiments."
Soros replied.
"That's good. Now I'll give you a task, which is to manufacture Devil Fruit."
"The origin of Devil Fruit is currently unknown, but I want you to create them artificially. First, produce Zoan-type Devil Fruit; I think this should be the simplest type of Devil Fruit."
Nox had originally wanted Caesar to do this experiment, as Caesar had manufactured many artificial Devil Fruit for Kaido in the original work.
But considering the side effects of the artificial Devil Fruit created by Caesar and the success rate after eating them, Nox didn't let that guy do it.
After all, in the original work, Vegapunk created a replica of the Fish-Fish Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Azure Dragon Form.
Therefore, entrusting this experiment to Soros, who inherited Vegapunk's Brain-Brain Fruit, would definitely yield better results than Caesar.
"Based on the results of the Life Design blueprint, Zoan-type Devil Fruit are actually very related to real animals. As long as the connection between Zoan-type Devil Fruit and animals is found, this experiment shouldn't be difficult."
"Furthermore, I speculate that to create powerful Zoan-type Devil Fruit, one needs to collect the genes of truly powerful Beast Island."
Soros said.
"Just focus on the experiments. Make a list of the things you need, and the Limitless Pirates will deliver everything to you."
"Also, don't just focus on experiments. You need to develop your Brain-Brain Fruit abilities more. Our Limitless Pirates have copied all the books from Ohara, plus the original collection of the Limitless Pirates. You should read through all of them and use your ability to remember everything."
"The more knowledge you store in your mind, the stronger your research ability will be. This is my true intention in letting you inherit Vegapunk's body."
Nox said.
"Captain, I understand. I will not let you down!"
Soros said seriously.
"Alright, I'll wait for your good news!"
After Nox finished speaking, he left. He didn't stay here any longer but went to find Koya.
"Koya, I have a task for you. Help me move a few islands back."
Nox said.
"Captain, which specific islands?"
Koya asked curiously.
"Some islands where many powerful Beast Island live. Go find Athena; she knows exactly where they are."
Nox looked at Koya as he spoke, then left.
"Really, the Captain asks me to work but doesn't explain clearly, and even makes me go find Sister Athena."
Looking at Nox's departing back, Koya muttered with a pout.
"Sister Athena, the Captain asked me to move some Beast Island back. He said you know where those islands are, so he told me to come and ask you."
Soon after, Koya quickly arrived at Athena's office.
"You, I've told you how many times? Knock before entering my office. How come you still don't remember even though you're this old?"
Looking at Koya who ran in, Athena rubbed Koya's head helplessly and said.
Although she had always raised Koya as her goddaughter, this goddaughter didn't want to be her daughter; she just wanted to be her younger sister and had called her "Sister" since childhood.
"Sister Athena, I've grown up. Don't rub my head anymore, or I won't grow tall."
Koya said, pushing away Athena's hand from her head in dissatisfaction.
"Alright, you've grown up, and you're still so jumpy!"
"Look, these are the locations of the Beast Island, and there are some other islands I've marked out that you need to move back for me. I've also marked where each island should be placed after it's moved."
Athena took out a World map and handed it to Koya, saying.
Besides the Beast Island, there were many special islands on this map.
For example, islands with large amounts of iron ore, coal, natural gas, timber, medicinal materials, and other special resources.
These islands were information that Nox had Law Net collect a long time ago, and the resources on these islands were all needed by the Limitless Pirates.
Now that Koya had the ability to move islands, Athena naturally wanted to move all these islands back.
This would increase many resources for the Limitless Pirates, save a lot on transportation costs, and also increase the number of islands in the Limitless Sea, achieving three goals at once.
