Time flowed like water, and in a blink of an eye, ten years had passed, bringing the timeline to the Sea Calendar year 1517!
Over these ten years, many world-shaking events occurred on the Sea.
For example, the Revolutionary Army was completely suppressed by the World Government and the Marine, unable to raise their heads, and could only huddle in the darkness, plotting one King revolution movement after another.
For example, Tesoro became the official diplomatic representative of the Limitless Pirates, responsible for trading with countries all over the World, and even the World Government, and earned the title of King of Gold. It is said that he possessed twenty percent of the World's wealth.
Another example is the rise of a new great Pirate. After the rise of the Red Hair Pirates, they charged into the New World and survived tenaciously under the suppression of many veteran Pirate Crew. However, the Red Hair Pirates did not compete for territory, but instead wandered the Sea like the Roger Pirates, or rather, adventured.
For Nox, his only personal action in the past decade was intercepting the Gum-Gum Fruit, known as the "Sun God", before the Red Hair Pirates.
At that time, Nox used the power of the Law Net to control all intelligence in the entire East Blue, tracked the World Government's ships, and successfully seized the Gum-Gum Fruit.
"Husband, the ten-year period is up!"
Shakky came into Nox's office and sat on his lap. Her soft voice reminded him that ten years had passed!
Since returning from the moon landing mission, Soros had given a clear answer: in ten years, he would definitely be able to research an energy source suitable for use with Ancient Weapon.
So, from that moment on, Nox and Shakky and the others formulated a ten-year plan. After ten years, when the energy source was developed, it would be time for the final decisive battle with the World Government!
"I didn't expect ten years to pass so quickly. It's time to see how Soros's energy research is progressing."
Nox patted Shakky's perky bottom and said.
Immediately, Shakky's face turned red. With a wave of her hand, a mirror appeared in front of them. Nox and Shakky naturally walked into the mirror and arrived at Soros's current laboratory.
It's not so much a laboratory as a massive satellite.
This satellite floats above the World's surface and is always facing the sun, with the sun's rays constantly shining directly on it.
"Soros, how is it? Have you researched the energy source?"
After arriving here, Nox asked directly.
"Captain, I didn't expect you to arrive so promptly. I have already researched the latest energy source and conducted experiments. The mother flame energy can be perfectly injected into Ancient Weapon to revive them, and this energy source is sustainably regenerative."
"As long as a single tinder exists, it can continuously grow stronger. After it grows stronger, a large portion of the energy can be separated, leaving behind a seed to continue its growth. In this cycle, its energy can be said to be inexhaustible and inexhaustible!"
Soros led Nox to the outermost part of the satellite, where there was a large mass of fiercely burning flames, isolated by various instruments.
But even so, Nox could feel the immense energy. This energy made him feel very familiar, it was very similar to the energy from the uranus bombardment back then, but there were significant differences.
"Soros, is the mother flame related to the sun?"
Nox guessed.
"That's right. If there is any energy in this World that is inexhaustible, it is undoubtedly the sun. I used the power of technology to collect the energy radiated by the sun and combined it with certain substances existing in the universe to research the mother flame."
"It can be said that as long as the sun doesn't die and the satellite isn't shot down, we can continuously extract energy from the sun and the universe through the satellite to nurture more mother flame."
"Captain, you don't know, the mother flame is simply a crushing existence compared to other energy sources. Almost all energy can be replaced by the mother flame, and because of the power of the mother flame, it can unleash power that surpasses ordinary energy."
"For example, our Limitless Pirates' steel battleship's main cannon, if the original electrical energy is replaced with the mother flame energy, the power can be doubled or even tripled, and the same goes for other energy sources!"
Soros said excitedly. He knew that the appearance of the mother flame would change this World!!!
And he, as the inventor of the mother flame, his name would be passed down forever as the World changes!
"Soros, based on the current progress, how long will it take for the mother flame to accumulate enough energy to fully charge Pluto?"
Nox asked curiously.
Although he wasn't clear about what the mother flame researched by Vegapunk in the original work was like or what abilities it possessed.
But Nox was now very clear that the mother flame researched by Soros was definitely much stronger than the one researched by Vegapunk.
From its ability to absorb solar and cosmic energy and regenerate continuously, it surpassed the power of the mother flame in the original work.
This energy source can not only be used on Ancient Weapon, but also on spaceships during future space exploration, and as long as it is within the solar system, there is no need to worry about energy depletion, allowing spaceships to operate continuously!
"One month, it will only take one month for the mother flame to fully charge Pluto's energy."
Soros replied.
"Alright, from now on, concentrate all efforts on accumulating the energy of the mother flame to fill up Pluto, then fill up the Star King that we created, and then the steel battleships, and so on."
Nox's mood also became excited at this moment.
The appearance of the mother flame represented a qualitative leap in the Limitless Pirates' technological strength. The World Government's uranus would no longer pose any threat to them.
And the Star King was a pseudo-uranus created by Nox based on the characteristics of the uranus. It was a weapon that combined a satellite with the Pluto weapon, capable of directly bombarding enemies from the air like the uranus. This could be considered another type of uranus.
"Husband, should our plan be fully launched now?"
After leaving Soros's laboratory, Shakky asked curiously.
"Fully launch the ten-year plan. It's time for me to sit on the throne of the World King!"
Nox looked in the direction of the World Government and revealed a smile.
Ten years ago, he began to make arrangements for this impending war. Now, with the appearance of the mother flame, the last gap between the Limitless Pirates and the World Government has been filled, so the plan can naturally begin.
As the order was issued from Nox's mouth, the entire World began to stir with undercurrents.
The Limitless Pirates were undoubtedly one of the two most powerful forces in this World. It was like a massive machine, and as it operated intensely, all the precise gears that made up this massive machine began to move.
However, this undercurrent was almost undetectable by any force because it was carried out completely in secret, and it was also protected by the Law Net covering the entire World, making it impossible for even the World Government to detect.
