Limitless Pirates:
"Why did you bring Issho back? Did you interfere with Ares's mission?"
Nox asked curiously, watching Gaenie bring back the unconscious Issho.
"Father, I didn't interfere with Ares's mission. Ares spent a day and a night to defeat Issho. I just helped him bring him back to Father."
Hearing Nox ask this, Gaenie didn't dare to lie and directly told the truth.
"In other words, that kid Ares is afraid that I will go back on my word, so he doesn't dare to come back and see me, right?"
How could Nox not know what was on his son's mind?
"Husband, why did you capture Issho?"
Athena walked over and asked curiously. She was also speaking for her son. Who told Ares to be so cowardly this time that he didn't even go home?
"Issho himself is a powerful top-tier combatant. He might join the Marine in the future and become our enemy."
"Since he is unwilling to join us, we can't keep him either, right?"
"There is also something I want to experiment with. If it is successful, it will greatly increase the strength of our Limitless Pirates."
Nox smiled.
"Cough, cough, Father, this is the video record of Ares and Issho's battle. If there's nothing else, I'll go see Mama first."
Seeing this, Gaenie directly handed the recorder to Nox and quickly made an excuse to leave.
"Go, Lesley is in the laboratory now."
Nox waved his hand and said.
"Husband, what experiment are you talking about?"
Hearing Nox say this, Athena was very curious. Now, besides Ancient Weapon, she had never seen anything else that could significantly increase the Limitless Pirates' strength.
"Wife, let me ask you first, the ability you used to exchange the minds of Vegapunk and Soros before should be stronger now, right?"
Nox asked.
"Husband, aren't you asking the obvious? Now that I have developed the Wisdom Fruit ability, it is naturally much stronger than before. I practiced with Marcus and those Executive Officers before, and I could control them just by relying on the Fruit ability!"
Hearing Nox ask this, Athena immediately showed off like a proud little peacock.
"Then tell me, what will happen if we exchange the mind of Issho with a member we have trained who is loyal to us?"
Nox looked at Issho lying on the ground with interest and said.
"Husband, are you saying that you want to use this method to directly Training a top-tier expert loyal to us?"
Hearing Nox say this, Athena couldn't help but be surprised. This method seemed really feasible!
After all, after she helped Soros and Vegapunk exchange their minds, Soros's mind is still able to perfectly use Vegapunk's body and the Brain-Brain Fruit that Vegapunk originally ate.
In other words, her mind exchange ability has no side effects and can perfectly inherit the other party's Devil Fruit ability.
If the mind of a member loyal to Nox is placed in Issho's body, then that person can inherit everything of Issho's body as a top-tier expert.
Although he does not have the combat awareness and various skills of a top-tier expert, he already has the body instincts and Devil Fruit ability of a top-tier expert.
Then, to unleash the power of Issho's body at its peak state, it would at most take a year and a half of training.
Cultivating a top-tier combatant in a year and a half is a very crazy thing!
"That's right, we'll use this method. Let's try it now!"
Nox smiled.
Immediately, Nox selected a man named Bill Brooks from the many loyal members they had trained.
"Captain, Captain's Wife!!"
Bill Brooks was called to Athena's office and was very excited to see Nox.
His whole family was once enslaved by slave traders. It was Nox who saved them and provided them with food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, allowing their family to live peacefully in the Limitless Sea for more than ten years.
Bill had great respect for Nox since childhood, so he joined the Limitless Sword School and later became a Vice Captain of the Limitless Pirates. However, due to limited talent, his strength could not continue to improve after reaching the position of Vice Captain.
"Bill, I am currently conducting an experiment that requires your cooperation. If this experiment is successful, you will be able to possess strength comparable to that of a core Executive Officer, but the cost is that you have to give up your current body. Are you willing?"
Nox asked seriously.
"Captain, I am willing, I am willing!!"
Hearing Nox say this, Bill agreed without hesitation. This was the strength of a core Executive Officer. Before, he could only dream of having the strength of a regular Executive Officer. He had never even dreamed of the level of a core Executive Officer.
Now that he heard Nox say that he could have the strength of a core Executive Officer, how could he refuse? It was just a body, which was insignificant compared to the strength of a core Executive Officer!
The pursuit of power, without fear of body deformation, is a unique spirit of the Pirate World.
"Very good, you come with us!"
Under Nox's Kenbunshoku Haki, he clearly knew what Bill was thinking. At least Bill's loyalty to Nox was completely unquestionable.
Nox brought the unconscious Issho to Lesley's laboratory.
"Lesley, where is that kid Gaenie? Didn't he say he was coming to see you before?"
After arriving here, Nox didn't see Gaenie here, so he immediately asked curiously.
"Oh, he came to see me, gave me something, and then ran away impatiently. He's not as clingy and cute as he was when he was a child!"
Lesley waved her hand and said.
"Forget it, the child have grown up, let them be."
"Lesley, next..."
Nox told Lesley the next plan, and soon Lesley brought two nutrient tanks.
"Bill, lie down. Relax. When you wake up, everything I said before will come true."
Nox looked at Bill and said, then threw the unconscious Issho in as well.
"Okay!"
Bill took a deep breath and then lay down in the nutrient tank.
When the nutrient tank closed, the mechanisms inside automatically activated. Numerous torture devices made of Sea Stone began to completely lock down Bill and Issho's bodies, followed by the injection of anesthetics, sedatives, and other drugs that would cause them to be unconscious and unable to wake up.
There were also nutrients in the nutrient tank that could ensure they could survive without eating or drinking.
"Sister Athena, you can start!"
Lesley said after adjusting the functions in the nutrient tank.
"Mind Exchange!"
Athena stepped forward, waved her hands in the air, and the minds in Bill and Issho's bodies were immediately repelled from their bodies by Athena and exchanged at an extremely fast speed.
"Okay!"
Athena said.
"Lesley, wake up Issho's body. I want to see if he is Issho or Bill!"
Nox said.
"No problem!"
Lesley stepped forward, adjusted the data of the nutrient tank, and soon Issho woke up.
"Captain, why do I feel like I have no strength in my whole body now?"
Bill, who had woken up, looked at Nox next to him and asked in confusion.
"You should be Bill, right?"
"Captain, I am Bill!"
"Then let me ask you a few questions, and you answer me. First, what are your parents' names, how many people are in your family, how old are you this year, when did you enter the Limitless Sword School..."
"Captain, my Mama's name is Celine O'Brien, my Father's name is Kra Brooks, and there are 5 people in my family including myself..."
Next, Nox asked about Bill's original basic information and confirmed that the mind that had entered Issho's body was Bill's mind.
"Bill, how do you feel now?"
After confirming it was Bill, Nox directly released him from the nutrient tank.
"Captain, I feel that I have very powerful strength now, a kind of power that I cannot describe!"
After coming out of the nutrient tank and being free from the restrictions of the Sea Stone, Bill felt that he was now hundreds of times stronger than before. This powerful strength was the strength he had always dreamed of!
"Bill, remember, you can't tell anyone about this experiment that made you stronger, understand?"
Nox said seriously.
"Captain, I understand. I will keep this matter a secret!"
Bill said seriously.
"Bill, from now on, your public title will be Fujitora. Don't mention the name Bill anymore. You will use the name Fujitora from now on."
"This is your weapon, Supreme Grade Swords·Black Road Fire Line. This is the battle video of your original body!"
"I will have other core Executive Officers fight against you to help you familiarize yourself with the strength of this body as soon as possible."
Nox said with satisfaction.
"Captain, no problem. From now on, I will be called Fujitora. This name sounds very domineering!"
"By the way, Captain, can you give me plastic surgery, plastic surgery into my original appearance? I look weird like this."
Fujitora looked at himself in the mirror next to him and felt very strange. He didn't even dare to go back and see his family like this.
"That's completely fine, come with me!"
Lesley said with a smile next to him.
The plastic surgery technology was developed by Lesley a few years ago. This plastic surgery technology combined with Law's Ope-Ope no Mi ability can perfectly change a person's appearance without any obvious side effects.
"Husband, it seems your plan was successful!"
"As long as we capture those top-tier combatants of the World Government alive, they will soon become our own top-tier combatants. This is killing two birds with one stone!"
Athena looked at the departing figure of Fujitora and couldn't help but feel happy for Nox.
"Yes, it was successful. Now it depends on when Fujitora can recover to his peak strength. Even if he can't recover to the peak, 90% is still good."
Nox was also very satisfied with this. At least this method can quickly make the overall strength of the Limitless Pirates soar!
