• Noah arranged for Galdino to stay aboard and taught him that developing the Wax-Wax Fruit meant understanding and transforming different kinds of wax, fats, and oils.
• Noah showed Galdino how a wax coating could protect him from seawater and instructed him to make artificial gills, while warning that the coating could break and that Galdino still needed to breathe.
• Noah made Galdino practice underwater each day with wax gills and a coating, while Kuro trained his body with Armament Haki and helped him work on Observation Haki.
• After a month, the Wangcai arrived at Yuzu Island in the White Mountain Kingdom, where Noah and Galdino disguised themselves and gathered news from people at a port bar.

Noah and his companions discovered an underground auction on a deserted island and decided to destroy it after finding slaves, a Devil Fruit, and Heaven Mushroom there. They attacked as the auction began, trapped the guests, and began killing and tormenting those inside.

Marine Headquarters assessed Noah’s six-person group after their clash in the South Blue and decided to brand them a terrorist organization. Tsuru then used the wanted notices and a sensationalized account to draw the New World’s pirates toward them and learn more about their strength.

• Tsuru presented reports identifying six members of Noah’s group, including Noah, Lilian, Galdino, Joshua, Kuro, and Ray, and described their abilities.
• Tsuru argued that the group was a secret organization developed on the Grand Line and posed a greater threat than ordinary pirates; the Marines dismissed the possibility that they were the Revolutionary Army.

Noah and his companions crossed the dangerous Lost Sea and explored an ancient city on their destination island. Following a treasure-map riddle, they found a submerged ancient well that led to a cavern resembling a hidden harbor.

• Noah and Lilith guided the Nautilus through the Lost Sea's storms, hail, and waterspouts, reaching the island after four days of difficult sailing.
• Noah's companions explored the island's overgrown ruins and discovered murals showing that its temple had been a place of worship for Nika.
• Noah interpreted the treasure-map riddle and concluded that the ancient well lay in the island's northeast, but the group found no well on land.
• Noah realized rising sea levels might have submerged the well and located it on the seabed two kilometers offshore.
• Noah parted the water, and the group descended through the submerged well to a tunnel and a natural cavern with signs of human alterations and a destroyed passage, apparently a hidden harbor.

Noah's group explored the abandoned submarine harbor on Crab Island, uncovering Atlan Kingdom records, a Poneglyph, and valuable deep-sea technologies. Noah turned the Lost Sea's islands into a new settlement, establishing the Storm Archipelago Governorate and bringing workers from Sikasis Island to build it.

• Kuro searched a cave and recovered more than two hundred books made from sea-beast hide, along with ancient nautical charts.
• Lilith found a carved account of the Atlan Kingdom's destruction and its survivor's return to Crab Island, and Noah had the Poneglyph copied by rubbing.

• Noah decided the Lost Sea could serve as a Noah Family secret base and moved 13 islands into its calm central waters, reinforcing their foundations with rock and sediment.
• Noah established the Storm Archipelago Governorate, and Ray brought able-bodied young adults from Sikasis Island to begin construction.

Noah completed the Storm Archipelago’s initial development as an industrial center, reorganized the Kingdom of Dawn into three governorates, and prepared to set sail after the new year. He left Gairam behind to oversee industry and Cube-Cube Fruit research, while keeping Shiki and Kuma close for protection against the World Government’s hidden threats.

• Noah and Shiki used Gairam’s Cube-Cube Fruit and the Float-Float Fruit to build Storm City’s housing, defenses, warehouses, and other infrastructure, bringing its population to 32,000.
• Noah planned the Storm Archipelago as an industrial zone, assigned its islands to industry, livestock, farming, and mining, and transferred Jay there to direct industrial construction.
• Noah appointed Joshua governor of the Storm Archipelago, abolished the Sikasis Island Governorate, and organized the Kingdom of Dawn into the Storm Archipelago, Sky Paradise, and East Blue governorates.
• After more than two months of development, Noah had four mineral-rich islands added to the archipelago, moved factories to Storm Island, and established an ark shipyard and research into ancient technology.
• Noah left Gairam in charge of the Storm Archipelago’s industrial zone and Cube-Cube Fruit research, while keeping Shiki and Kuma with him because of possible attacks by the World Government.

Noah and Kuro traveled to the West Blue to capture Daz Bones, while Shanks sought Cipher Pol intelligence in the Sabaody Archipelago. After Kuro defeated Daz, Noah decided to give the sixteen-year-old bounty hunter a chance to change before considering turning him into a Card Apostle.

• Noah arrived in the West Blue aboard the Prosperity and learned from Kuro that Daz Bones and Capone Bege had been located, while Nico Robin remained difficult to find.

• Ray and Noah seized control of the Gambino Family by turning Off into an Apostle and using the Bully Dog Fruit.
• Mary led the Department of Supervision in screening the Capone Family as Bege and Off ordered searches for Nico Robin.

Noah and Bege tested whether the Castle Fruit’s alternate space could force a Devil Fruit to reincarnate inside it, and the experiment succeeded. Noah reclaimed five more fruits and summoned six detachment captains to begin distributing the family’s reserves.

• Bege swallowed a Carp Fruit user into his castle space, where the man was killed among matching fruits.
• The Carp Fruit’s information body could not escape the castle space and reincarnated in an apple, confirming Noah’s spatial-lock theory.
• Noah explained why alternate spaces could trap reincarnating Devil Fruits and why the Dark-Dark Fruit was most likely to have revealed the method.
• Noah reclaimed the fruits of Guro, Dick, Austin, Catarina Devon, and Diamante, adding five Devil Fruits to the Noah Family’s reserves.
• Noah ordered Ray to bring the Distillery’s six detachment captains so he could distribute Devil Fruits to the newly promoted officers.

Noah rewarded the six Distillery branch heads with Devil Fruits and taught them how to develop their abilities. After a month of training, they returned to their posts, while news from the Gambino Family prompted Noah to set sail again.

• Noah welcomed Sherry, Tequila, Juniper, Rum, Vodka, and Champagne and offered them fourteen unassigned Devil Fruits.

• After a month of training on York Island, the Distillery officers returned to their posts, and Noah set sail after receiving news from the Gambino Family.

Kuro captured Nico Robin after killing the pirates who had planned to trade her for weapons, then brought her to Noah. Noah told Robin he wanted to keep her from becoming a pawn in his plans and showed her a book containing seven Poneglyph rubbings, revealing that he already knew what they said.

• Durk and One-Eye planned to trade Nico Robin to the Camorra Family, but Kuro and five subordinates boarded their ship and killed the pirates.
• Kuro took Robin aboard the Prosperity and destroyed the pirate ship before bringing her to Noah.
• Noah told Robin he would not hand her over to the Navy and explained that he would not let her become a pawn for his enemies.
