Charlotte Oven's death enraged the entire Big Mom Pirates.
Soon, the Big Mom Pirates issued bounties in the tens of billions in New World and the Underworld.
Unfortunately, Noah was ruthless and efficient in his work. Even Morgans, the underground intelligence giant, couldn't find out who was behind it, let alone other underground giants.
The only person who might know the truth is Viola, the second princess of the Dressrosa Kingdom, whose Glint-Glint Fruit has a maximum coverage radius of 4,000 kilometers.
Raijin Island is only about 790 kilometers away from the Dressrosa Kingdom. If Viola had been observing this area that day, she would have been able to witness the battle between Noah and Oven.
Unfortunately, Noah had already been on guard against the other party.
On the day of the operation, Champagne arranged for his men to deliberately set fire to a small patch of forest near the coast of Dressrosa.
Therefore, Viola could only focus her attention on the Dressrosa Kingdom and guard against potential enemies.
The enraged Big Mom Pirates caused chaos in the New World, which ironically attracted the attention of the Marines and other powerful pirates.
After returning to the York Island base in the West Blue, Noah did not stay for long. He quickly jumped through a wormhole and arrived at Lion Island in the Paradise Sky Governorate.
"Lord Noah, it's been a long time!" Monet greeted him with a smile.
How's work going?
Monet nodded. "There are no major problems. The Sky Island's defense system is now largely complete..."
She explained the details of the Sky Island to Noah.
Currently, the Paradise Sky Governorate comprises 15 Sky Island, including 11 islands in the core area such as Lion Island, Winged People Island, Angel Island, Field Island, and Upper Jaya Island.
And four outpost Sky Island: Southern Birka Island, Eastern Gluttony Island, Western Dark Cloud Island, and Northern Heavenly Lake Island.
The total population is 53,000, with a regular army of 3,500.
It possesses four medium-sized flying arks and a 1,000-strong air cavalry unit. The commander of the Sky Legion is Wyper.
Although the regular army only has 3,500 people, the militia has about 8,300 people. These militia members are the reserves and will receive preliminary training in Haki and physical skills.
Meanwhile, the Sky Island region's specialty, Sky Island Clam farming, has also developed very rapidly. In particular, with the assistance of Andy, Law, and others, some endangered rare clam species have been restored to their original population size.
For example, the Impact Dial and the Laser Dial, two types of Sky Island shells, have recovered from being on the verge of extinction to having a population of more than two thousand individuals.
Noah visited the Mechanical Island, located northwest of Lion Island, a Sky Island specifically designed to modify the flying ark.
He saw Luo busy on a ship.
"Is this the Eden-class Ark?"
Upon seeing Noah arrive, Luo quickly stopped what he was doing and respectfully replied, "Yes, Noah's family, this is the Eden-class Ark you envisioned."
What sets this ark apart from ordinary medium-sized arks is that its surface is covered with a layer of dark green "scales," which are actually the leaves of a plant native to the Sky Island.
The defining characteristic of the Eden-class Ark is its life-like nature; this ship is essentially a tree that can store energy through photosynthesis.
Its power and weapons come from Law's use of the Op-Op Fruit ) to transplant some of the functional organs of the Sky Island Clam onto the Tree Ship.
For example, the jet propulsion system was created by transplanting giant Breath Wind Dial, cultivated using IQ agents, onto the ship.
For example, the laser cannon, as a weapon, also uses IQ serum to enhance the Laser Dial, and then transplants the Laser Dial onto the tree ship.
To enhance its energy storage capacity, the IQ agent was used to strengthen the Heat Dial's energy storage organs, with its maximum energy storage limit equivalent to the heat generated by the complete combustion of 5 tons of coal.
This Eden-class Ark is equipped with 100 Heat Dial energy storage batteries.
In order to increase the energy produced by photosynthesis, photosynthetic leaves that can extend freely were transplanted on both sides of the tree boat. After these leaves unfold, they can increase the area of photosynthetic leaves on the boat by 10 times.
The bottom of the ship is fitted with reinforced Cloud Dial that can spew fixed clouds, allowing the tree ship to float in the air without power, while also serving as camouflage and preventing infiltration by ability users.
These biological warships not only possess extremely high survivability, but they can also provide supplies to the personnel on board.
For example, there's the "Meat Rib Growth Chamber" and "Vitamin Fruit Growth Chamber" created using parts of the Stomach Baron's organs; the "Freshwater Generation Chamber" and "Shower Room" created using Water Dial; and the "Kitchen" created using Flame Dial and Heat Dial.
The ability of the Op-Op Fruit to transplant without regard to species differences or rejection allows for many unimaginable modifications and creations in the field of bioengineering.
With the transplantation and modification of various biological organs, Law's development of the Op-Op Fruit became more and more in-depth, and he increasingly understood Noah's saying, "Knowledge is power."
"It seems the research and development is progressing well, but that's not enough..."
Luo nodded. "It's indeed not perfect yet. Although the resin organs of the Yarukiman Mangrove can be transplanted, the bubbles produced by its resin are difficult to maintain stably for a long time outside the Sabaody Archipelago. I'm trying to find a way to improve it."
Noah waved his hand. "It's alright, take your time, we still have time."
"By the way, the Noah family, you previously instructed me to build a special type of ark, which is estimated to take about two more months."
"Two months? I understand. Don't worry, just make sure to take extra precautions."
I will strengthen arrangements in this area.
Noah looked around at the interior facilities of the Eden- class ship, and then inquired about Luo's ability development.
At this point, Luo can already use ultrasound, X-rays, and nuclear magnetic resonance, but he has not yet mastered gamma rays and heavy protons, and it is estimated that he will be able to do so Devil Fruit Awakening.
However, significant progress has been made in other areas of development.
For example, they could utilize the ferocious beasts left over from previous experiments with the Golden Lion to create a special Fierce Beast Corps.
Luo selected several dozen Masira and modified their bodies. These Masira were divided into several types: the Sea Gorilla Squad, the Fire Gorilla Squad, the Flying Gorilla Squad, and the Power Gorilla Squad.
Masira can live on the seabed and use toxins, ink, and electric shocks as means of propulsion.
The fire Masira has transplanted organs from the Breath Wind Dial and the Flame Dial, and also has wings, allowing it to breathe fire and fly.
The flying Masira has been transplanted with Laser Dial organs and wings, enabling it to emit lasers and fly.
The Masira has been fitted with an insect exoskeleton and hedgehog spines, giving it immense strength and the ability to launch giant spikes.
In addition, Luo also modified a set of bio-armor for himself, also using Masira as raw materials, which allowed him to integrate into it, avoiding the drawbacks of directly modifying his own body, and at the same time, he could use various biological organs.
The bio-armor, over six meters tall, possessed immense physical strength and various bizarre biological organs. Luo piloted it, conserving his energy.
