After eating the Wheel-Wheel Fruit, Judge's body can transform into a mechanical form.
This fruit belongs to the Paramecia type, specifically the Paramecia type. Its characteristic is the ability to transform the body into vehicles such as cars, trams, trains, motorcycles, armored vehicles, and the Chariot, and it can also partially transform.
Their combat capabilities are still quite good.
As for Judge's biological research technology, Noah thought it was only half-baked, far inferior to Vegapunk, but slightly better than Queen and Caesar.
However, Judge's research direction in bio-engineered human technology is completely backwards.
Erasing the emotions of the modified person means that it is impossible to stimulate and enhance Haki, especially Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki, which represent willpower and spirit, and basically lose the possibility of Awakening.
Moreover, cultivating advanced cyborgs is too troublesome and requires a lot of time.
While ordinary clones can be created quickly, their strength is mediocre, and they can only be used as cannon fodder and expendable resources.
This makes Germa 66's overall strength seem neither strong nor weak. They can crush many forces in the four seas, but they become very powerless when facing forces at the level of the Shichibukai or the Four Emperors.
If cyborgs of the same caliber as his children could be mass-produced, then Germa 66 could potentially rival the Donquixote Family, Moonlight Pirates, Baroque Works, Sun Pirates, and Kuja Pirates among the Shichibukai.
Unfortunately, Judge's abilities are limited, and advanced cyborgs are too expensive and take a very long time to develop, making them quite impractical for the Liberator Organization at this stage.
In that case, Noah made Judge abandon the technological path of purely cyborgs.
The new technology route he chose for Judge was to combine cloning technology and cyborg technology with an exoskeleton.
First, only the head is cloned, and then the cloned head is transformed into a biological intelligent brain, avoiding the rigidity, large size, and high energy consumption of pure electronic computers.
Then, using the graphene battery developed by Jay as the power source for the mecha, and combining it with the bio-memory alloy developed by Ladget using the Munch-Munch Fruit, they created an exoskeleton mecha that is compatible with living organisms.
Combined with various weapons developed by Judge, Caesar, Queen, Ladget, Doria, and others.
The armored troops developed using this technological approach are roughly comparable in combat capability to Pacifista Pacifista currently being developed by the World Government, but are much easier and cheaper to produce, and are also more intelligent.
Noah transferred Jay, Ladget, and Queen to Germa 66 66 strengthen their overall strength.
Although Queen is a member of the Beasts Pirates, he was captured in the secluded underwater world of Wano Country, so the outside world is not very certain about his specific situation and that of King and others.
The Sky Empire has not announced their deaths, and the Pteranodon Fruit, Mammoth Fruit, and Brachiosaurus Fruit have not reappeared on the sea.
Therefore, the Navy did not withdraw the arrest warrant for Queen and others; they were simply marked as missing.
It's entirely possible to leverage the relationship between Queen and Judge to legitimately bring Queen into Germa 66.
After dealing with matters in the Germa Kingdom, Noah sent Niji, Ichiji, Yonji, Reiju back.
The reason they weren't killed was because it wasn't necessary. After all, the three brothers were emotionless cyborgs. Reiju did have feelings, but she too couldn't disobey Judge's orders.
In this situation, since the three Ichiji brothers are acting as henchmen, Reiju can stay with Judge as his secretary.
As for whether Reiju would secretly inform on him, Noah didn't care too much. On one hand, she didn't have much affection for her father Judge; on the other hand, Noah had secretly prepared a backup plan.
As long as Noah controls Judge, the Germa Kingdom will not escape his grasp. With Jay, Queen, and Ladget also present, everything is guaranteed to be safe.
On the surface, Germa Kingdom still Judge supreme in the Germa Kingdom, but in reality, it is Jay who is in charge, with Judge, Queen, and Ladget as the core cadres.
After secretly overthrowing the Germa Kingdom.
Noah and his group secretly stayed here.
Originally, Judge planned to go to the East Blue to avoid trouble, but now he no longer needs to do so, and can even take the opportunity to control a part of the region.
The Sky Empire's influence currently extends primarily to the southern seas.
The Germa Kingdom was currently located in the northeastern part of the North Blue, which was closer to the Red Line along the Reverse Mountain Canal but farther from the Red Line along the Mary Geoise.
This location is actually very advantageous for the Germa Kingdom to establish its own independent territory.
Of course, in the initial stages, it's definitely not advisable to attack Affiliated Nation of the World Government.
However, the northeastern waters of the North Blue are not only inhabited by Affiliated Nation of the World Government, but also by eight non- Affiliated Nation.
Considering that the personnel being transferred are mostly research-oriented, Noah, after careful consideration, decided to also transfer Jin, Jack, Yamato.
These people could form a remnant of the Beasts Pirates and join forces with the Germa Kingdom.
At the same time, it can also distance itself from the Sky Empire.
After all, it's common knowledge that Kaido died at Shiki's hands. Although the outside world may not know much about Yamato as Kaido's daughter, the World Government certainly has ways of knowing this.
During his time in the Paradise Governorate and the West Blue Governorate, Yamato did not actually take any action, so his identity was not leaked.
In this way, the remnants of the Beasts Pirates will definitely be irreconcilable enemies with the Sky Empire.
While the World Government dislikes the Beasts Pirates, it dislikes the Sky Empire even more. It will most likely tolerate the Germa Kingdom's occupation of non- Affiliated Nation and then instigate a war between the Germa Kingdom and the Sky Empire to contain the Sky Empire.
Noah intended to exploit this, disguising himself as the Germa Kingdom, to achieve a backdoor listing.
As long as the Sky Empire controls the southern part of the North Blue, the World Government will have no choice but to tacitly allow the Germa Kingdom to control the northeastern part of the North Blue.
After devising this plan, Noah and his group also began secretly helping the Germa Kingdom modify those snail ships.
Meanwhile, Judge, Queen, and others focused their efforts on developing armored units.
A month and a half passed quickly and quietly.
With a research and development strategy in place, and given that the technologies themselves are relatively mature, the current focus is simply on technology integration, which is why the development speed of armored vehicles is very fast.
In just one month, Judge and his team produced more than a dozen first-generation models.
After another two weeks of testing and adjustments, three models were selected:
Sea Wolf Model Combat Armored Soldier.
Falcon Model Combat Armored Soldier.
Fierce Tiger Model Combat Armored Soldier.
The names themselves reveal the purpose of these three models: they were specifically designed for naval warfare, air warfare, and land warfare, respectively.
Based on the test results, the combat armored troops equipped with laser cannons, Railgun, machine guns, bio-memory alloys, and Seastone weapons have an overall strength roughly equivalent to that of Marine Headquarters Rear Admiral.
Aside from the inability to use Haki, the armored soldiers, thanks to their abundant combat equipment, can overwhelm enemies below the Marine Headquarters Rear Admiral.
Although there was still potential for further improvement and enhancement, Noah believed that the first-generation model was sufficient, so he had Jay organize manpower to begin mass production.
In addition, some of the snail ships were converted into high-tech warships, equipped with large laser cannons and Railgun for air defense and to strike large-scale approaching surface fleets.
