After all, Nox was an Executive Officer of the Rocks Pirates. Once others knew he had child, it would become his weakness.
This trip out to sea was also to take them away to avoid trouble, and incidentally, to give birth to the child and then hide them.
"Okay, I'll go with you."
Shakky nodded. Although she was an intelligence Executive Officer for the Rocks Pirates, she wasn't the only one.
There were many. Rocks wouldn't concentrate all the information on one person.
Coupled with Nox's relationship, Rocks didn't restrict Shakky much.
"Captain, I need to go out for a while recently. It might take half a year, maybe even more than half a year."
After deciding to go to Sea, Nox came to find Rocks the next day and explained his intention to go to Sea.
"Oh? What makes you want to go to Sea?"
Rocks asked curiously. You know, according to his understanding, Nox was a Training fanatic.
In the more than half a year since joining the Rocks Pirates, he spent most of his time cultivating. This was simply an anomaly for someone who was a Pirate.
Having become a Pirate, who would still Training so hard, making themselves look like an ascetic monk.
"I'm going out to seek an opportunity to break through to Grand Swordmaster."
Nox said. He wouldn't reveal his true purpose, but he wasn't lying either. The Seven Star Sword might really be his opportunity to break through to Grand Swordmaster.
"In that case, go ahead, but don't die on the Sea."
Rocks said, narrowing his eyes. This was a reminder, a reminder to Nox.
The Marine and World Government who wanted to deal with the Rocks Pirates right now, if they knew Nox had gone to Sea alone, Nox would be met with encirclement by the Admiral.
"Don't worry, I won't die so easily."
Nox said confidently.
At night, Nox, along with Kano and other Senior apprentice brothers, Shakky, and Lesley, departed from Beehive Island. Apart from Rocks, no one knew that Nox, as an Executive Officer, had left Beehive Island.
Even spies from other forces would only discover it after dawn. By then, Nox would have long disappeared into the vast Sea.
"Nox, how do we get to Asuka Island?"
Lesley asked doubtfully. Asuka Island wasn't in the New World, but in the Four Seas. To get from the New World to the Four Seas, one had to go through Fish-Man Island back to Sabaody Archipelago.
However, Sabaody Archipelago is near Marineford, which is the territory of the Marine and World Government. Once they appeared there, they would definitely be met with an Admiral's encirclement.
"That depends on Shakky."
Nox looked at Shakky and smiled.
"I knew you'd make me do it."
Shakky rolled her eyes at Nox, then slowly took out a den den mushi with snake hair and dialed a number.
"Shakky, you're finally willing to contact me."
On the other side of the den den mushi, a female voice came.
"I need a partner who can take us through the Calm Belt."
Shakky said.
"No problem, I'll put it in the usual place."
"Are you really not coming back?"
The woman on the other side of the den den mushi said.
"Yes, I won't be going back."
After Shakky finished speaking, she hung up the den den mushi.
"Alright, when the time comes, there will naturally be a partner to take us through the Calm Belt into the Four Seas. However, at that time, you'll need to intimidate the Sea Kings to avoid being attacked by them."
Shakky looked at Nox and said.
Before she joined the Rocks Pirates, she was the Vice Captain of the Kuja Pirates.
Shakky had also told Nox about this point, which was why Nox thought of having Shakky use her previous identity.
Have Amazon Lily provide a large python to drag their ship through the Calm Belt, directly to the Four Seas area.
The Calm Belt is a natural barrier separating the New World and the Four Seas. Without the effect of wind, the sails have no power, and thus cannot sail.
Therefore, most people believe that the Calm Belt is impassable, and it has become a natural barrier between the Four Seas and the New World.
"No problem. Mere Sea Kings have to bow down before me."
Nox said confidently.
Many Sea Kings inhabit the Calm Belt, but these Sea Kings are no issue for Nox. With one Haoshoku, basically no Sea Kings would dare to provoke him.
"However, since it's on the way, let's go to the 'War Without End Country' first. I need to find someone there."
When Nox saw the sea chart, he suddenly remembered someone.
"Who?"
Lesley asked curiously. Nox was almost inseparable from her. She was very curious about who was worth Nox slowing down his search for the Seven Star Sword and specifically going to find.
"A crew member, a crew member with great potential."
Nox's lips curved slightly.
He would need powerful subordinates when he formed his Pirate Crew in the future. Famous great Pirates couldn't possibly submit to him, and he couldn't trust those powerful Pirates either.
So, if he wanted help, he could only Training them himself. The first mates and subordinates of the Four Emperors in the original work were almost all cultivated by themselves.
As for his future crew members, the only two worth cultivating right now were Kano and Karoo, but their talent and potential were limited, so their future achievements wouldn't be too great, nor too bad.
To describe it in one sentence: not enough compared to the top, but more than enough compared to the bottom.
Douglas Bullet was his target this time. Without a doubt, Bullet possessed extremely powerful talent worth cultivating.
After departing from Beehive Island and sailing for several days, Nox finally arrived at the "War Without End Country".
In this country, wars occurred year-round, almost without stopping, to the extent that the country's original name was forgotten, and people only remembered it as the "War Without End Country".
After Nox's pirate ship appeared at the War Without End Country, the kingdom's troops stationed along the coast discovered Nox's ship immediately.
They also saw the flag of the Rocks Pirates flying on Nox's ship.
"R-Rocks Pirates Executive Officer, Headhunting Swordsman Nox!!!"
"Quick, quickly go inform Captain Douglas, and have the Captain inform the General!!!"
After seeing Nox standing at the very front of the ship through his binoculars, the soldier broke out in a cold sweat from shock, then stammered to his comrade next to him.
"What? Headhunting Swordsman Nox? How could such a big figure come here? Is he here to plunder our kingdom?"
Douglas, who was a Captain, also turned pale with fright upon hearing that Nox had arrived, and then hurried to find his superior.
Soon, within just a few minutes, General Abu Clayton of the War Without End Country mobilized a large number of troops to the port, nervously staring at the pirate ship that was sailing towards them.
