However, the Marine's current strength is weak, and their forces are far from sufficient to suppress the Sea, so Kong can only ask for the World Government's help.
"Kong, the World Government is also short on money right now and cannot provide you with support."
"However, the celestial tribute is about to start. Once the celestial tribute arrives, we will allocate a batch of military funds to you to help restore the Marine's combat strength."
However, when Kong pleaded with the Gorosei for support, he only received this sentence.
The meaning was clear: Kong was to wait, and when the celestial tribute arrived, the Marine's military funds would naturally follow.
"Damn it, they're even delaying the military funds!"
Kong, who had just become the Fleet Admiral, finally understood why Brac was so frustrated and angry before.
It was all because the World Government controlled the Marine's lifeline. No matter what the Marine wanted to do, they had to act according to the Gorosei's wishes.
"Captain, in this war, our team suffered heavy losses, with only six hundred people surviving!"
After Nox returned to the ship, Marley and Kano came to report the battle situation to him.
"We're short on manpower. Recruit when we get back to Beehive Island. Anyway, we still have treasure."
Nox said indifferently. Anyway, these were just cannon fodder, and many of them were people who bore him ill will. He didn't care how many died.
In the New World, the one thing that is never in short supply is cannon fodder Pirates.
"Yes, Captain!"
Hearing Nox's words, Marley said excitedly.
"Don't neglect your own strength because of this. Go train more often when you have nothing to do, and strive to make yourself stronger. Without solid strength, everything is just empty talk!"
Nox looked at Marley and Kano and said.
These two were his confidants, and he didn't want them to be killed one day.
"Don't worry, Senior Brother, I won't forget. I've already developed the Chop-Chop Fruit quite well now, and I even killed a Marine Commodore in this major battle."
Kano said proudly.
"I will also work hard!"
Hearing Kano say that, Marley felt uncomfortable.
His strength was stronger than Kano's before, but now, Kano was stronger than him.
As for the Feather-Feather Fruit he ate, he had only developed a pair of feather wings that allowed him to fly. He hadn't developed anything else.
"Hmm, as long as you have your own plans."
Nox nodded.
Cultivating like this is a luxury for Pirates. After all, since they are Pirates, they are more likely to enjoy themselves rather than Training like an ascetic monk.
Nox was just reminding them. Whether they were willing to Training themselves was their own business.
After returning to Beehive Island, Nox left Beehive Island and began cultivating using Eva's gravity on a nearby island.
He cultivated for two months until Rocks sent someone to notify him to attend a meeting.
On the way, Nox met Whitebeard, and the two went to Beehive Island together.
"Whitebeard, this is?"
Nox looked at the little pineapple-headed kid following behind Whitebeard and couldn't help but ask.
"gura rara rara, this is the family I found, my son, Marco!"
"Marco, this is Limitless Great Swordsman Nox. Come, say hello."
Seeing Nox ask this, Whitebeard said very proudly.
Family has always been his dream. Now, he has finally found his family, which is to recognize sons. Sons are his family. In the future, he will recognize more sons!
"Hello, Limitless Great Swordsman, I am Marco!"
Marco hid behind Whitebeard's big leg, revealing a pineapple head and saying softly.
"Hmm? Son?"
"Whitebeard, he shouldn't be your biological son, right? He doesn't look like you at all?"
Nox asked knowingly.
"gura rara rara, although Marco is not my biological son, he is still my son, my family!"
Whitebeard smiled.
"I say, Newgate, since you like family so much, why don't you have a bunch of your own? Is it because you're not capable in that regard?"
Golden Lion, this guy, somehow also came aboard Nox's ship and teased Whitebeard.
"Shiki, you bastard, are you itching for a beating again!!!"
Hearing Shiki's words, any man would be provoked!
"Hahahaha, Whitebeard, I'll also have a few sons in the future. When your son gets beaten up and cries by my son, don't blame me!"
Nox also burst into laughter at this moment, after all, his two sons, Gaenie and Drake, were born.
In the future, he will personally teach his sons, and they will definitely not be worse than Marco.
"gura rara rara, Nox, maybe your son will be beaten by my son then."
Hearing Nox say this, Whitebeard also laughed. How could his son be worse than someone else's son!
"You two guys, are you finished or not? What's so good about sons? It's better to conquer the world with me, that's a man's romance!"
Golden Lion, hearing Nox and Whitebeard's words, said angrily, disappointed in them.
Have sons? Men should conquer the world!!
"I say, Golden Lion, you're not young anymore. Why don't you have a few sons?"
"You know, when you conquer the world in the future, you'll need at least a few trustworthy helpers, right? Who is more trustworthy than your own son?"
"Besides, with your Golden Lion's genetic talent, the sons you have, plus your guidance, in thirty years, they might even become Admiral-level powerhouses. Why not?"
Nox couldn't help but retort to Golden Lion's words.
"gura rara rara, Shiki, Nox is right. Why don't you have a few? Is it because you Golden Lion are not capable in that regard and can't have sons?"
Seeing Nox's words, Whitebeard also used Golden Lion's words from just now to tease Golden Lion.
"Bastard Newgate, just because you can't, don't say I'm the same as you!"
Golden Lion felt great when he said Whitebeard couldn't, but when it was Whitebeard's turn to use that "incapable" tone with him, he instantly bristled.
However, Golden Lion is also thinking now, what Nox said seems to make a lot of sense.
In the future, he wants to dominate the world, and he will definitely need helpers.
If he has a few sons of his own, the sons born with his genetic talent will definitely not be bad. It is not impossible to Training them into powerhouses. It is a good way to increase helpers and combat power.
No wonder that woman Charlotte Linlin is so enthusiastic about having child. So that was her intention.
Should he also try to have a few sons?
"Mama Mama, having child? Who wants to have child? I'll help you have them!!!"
At this moment, Charlotte Linlin passed by and just happened to hear Nox and the others' conversation.
Hearing the three of them say they wanted to have child, Charlotte Linlin became excited and immediately rushed over.
She had been longing for the sperm of these three for a long time!
Now that she heard these three say they wanted to have child, she was very excited!
She wanted to have all of these three's child!!!
"Mama Mama, Shiki, are you the one who wants to have child? The child we have together will definitely have the best genes!!"
"Shiki, don't worry, we'll have more child, and then we'll share them equally. I definitely won't let you lose out. Even if you want more child then, it's no problem."
Charlotte Linlin looked at Golden Lion with fiery eyes and said.
"Get lost, who wants to have child with you!"
When Golden Lion saw Charlotte Linlin, the thought of having child was instantly interrupted. He, Golden Lion, is a man and does not want to have any involvement with Charlotte Linlin.
He is very clear about what kind of woman Charlotte Linlin is. This kind of woman, any proud man would not provoke, let alone want to have any physical relationship with her, that would be like becoming the King of Cuckolds!!
"Mama Mama, Nox, what about you? Do you want to have a child with me? Maybe our child will also have extraordinary sword road talent like you in the future."
Charlotte Linlin didn't mind Golden Lion's rejection at all and quickly shifted her target to Nox.
"We've arrived at Beehive Island. Let's hurry to the meeting. It's not good to keep Rocks waiting for too long."
Nox's face darkened, and he didn't talk to Charlotte Linlin. He leaped off the ship and walked towards the meeting room.
"gura rara rara, Nox, wait for me!"
Whitebeard saw Charlotte Linlin's gaze turn to him, so he picked up Marco and chased after Nox.
Golden Lion also didn't want to bother with Charlotte Linlin and just flew away.
"Mama Mama, really, such good sperm can't be used, it's such a pity!"
Charlotte Linlin looked at the departure of Nox and the other two and couldn't help but regret it.
If she could get the sperm of these three, then the child born would definitely become her most capable helpers in the future!
When Nox and the others arrived at the meeting room, they found that John, Wang Zhi, Silver Axe, World, Brandon, and Lionardo had all arrived.
However, John, Wang Zhi, and Silver Axe were sitting closer together.
World, Lionardo, and Brandon were sitting closer together.
They were vaguely divided into two factions.
Although Lionardo and Brandon were previously friendly with John and the others, as the current situation changed, they invited World to join.
World was not a fool, so he readily agreed, and the three formed a small team.
Adding Nox, Golden Lion, Charlotte Linlin, and Whitebeard, the Executive Officers of the entire Rocks Pirates were divided into three small groups.
This was also something Rocks was happy to see.
"Yohohoho, Captain, is there another major activity this time?"
After Rocks arrived, John asked excitedly.
During this time, he had a long-lost feeling of rapid progress in strength, so he really wanted to find something to do, especially looking for treasure!
"Wahahahaha, that's right, there's a big good thing that needs you to do!"
"These are the transportation routes for the celestial tribute of almost all World Government member states in the New World. What you need to do is to take all of these celestial tributes back for me!"
"Of course, some of the celestial tribute transportation routes are wrong. How you handle it is up to you."
Rocks took out ten sea charts and distributed them to the Executive Officers present. Each sea chart indicated their target for this time.
Everyone had two celestial tribute transportation routes in their hands.
In other words, there are now twenty-five World Government member states in the New World, and the celestial tribute of twenty of them is in their hands!
As for the remaining five, Rocks must have also obtained them, but he just didn't take them out.
