“Okay, got it.” After replying, Norton looked at Marco: “Take me to catch a bug and come back so I can test it.”

“Alright, come with me.” Marco nodded, and with a wave of his arms, they transformed into wings and he took flight.

Behind Norton, amidst a flurry of paper scraps, a pair of white angel wings transformed, and he followed Marco up into the sky.

Those big guys all have their own territories, something Marco and his team figured out over the past year.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible to survive on this awful planet for over a year...

The two quickly flew to the front of a dense jungle. Marco looked down and shouted, "King Norton, this is it! They're easy to find!"

"

Splash... splash...

As soon as he finished speaking, Norton noticed that a group of trees to his right suddenly began to tremble violently.

“It’s right there! The bugs are quite large, and they always brush against some trees when they pass by.” Marco said, and was the first to fly over.

Norton followed behind, his Observation Haki flashing in his eyes. The next second, he pinpointed the location of the insects and asked, "Do they have any weaknesses?"

"Yes! The outer shell is incredibly hard, but the inside is extremely fragile. Ace often roasts them raw before cracking open the hard shell to eat the meat." Marco flew to the top of the big tree and looked down.

"That's easy, leave it to me!" Norton flew over, waved his right hand, and a large number of papers appeared out of thin air.

At the same time, a strange rune appeared on each of the slips of paper.

With a wave of Norton's hand, the slips of paper rained down from the sky.

What are these notes?

I'm sure you can guess what's going on without me having to explain further!

"Boom—"

Boom boom boom boom...

Yes, you guessed it right. What Norton detonated were the explosive tags that were all stuck to the giant beetle.

If it's covered in the entire body and then detonated, the power is definitely something these little insects can't withstand.

"Squeak-"

The insect let out a miserable cry and lay motionless on the ground.

Norton flew down, casually pointed, and a paper knife appeared. He flew down and cut off a piece of worm meat, which was then carried back by the paper knife.

"Let's go back." Having achieved his goal, Norton collected some more leaves and flowers, then turned and flew back to Whitebeard's side.

By this time, Ram had finished checking everyone.

When Norton returned and landed on the ground, Ram began to report: "Master, the toxins in their bodies have all been cleared, but due to Captain Whitebeard's age, the damage to his energy and life force caused by the virus is irreversible. He may die..."

You might die...

Upon hearing those words, Ace and Marco felt as if struck by lightning, leaving them physically and mentally devastated.

“Here,” Norton said, placing the insect flesh and leaves on the ground. “Test these things and see where the toxins are coming from.”

“Yes, Master.” Rem nodded, a glint in her eyes, and began scanning the plants.

A dozen seconds later, Rem turned her head and began scanning the insect flesh again.

After another ten seconds or so, the answer came out.

“Master, the insect meat does indeed contain several unknown psychoactive toxins.”

Ma Xiao frowned and continued to ask, "Is there any way to get rid of the toxins? If we can't eat this insect flesh to enhance the fruit's abilities, then coming here this time will be a huge loss."

“I have a way!” Rem’s words delighted Norton: “The food preparation machine and medical analyzer on the space station can do this.”

"Very good!" Norton smiled, got up again, flew to the location of the insect corpse, sent the insect back to the space station, and then used the food maker to remake it.

Chapter 320 Second Target Planet

When Norton returned, he brought back a lot of food made from insect meat.

"How are they?" Norton asked Ram when no one had woken up yet.

"Master, they will need about twenty more hours to wake up," the medical robot Ram gave an approximate time.

“Then let’s not wait here. Come on, let’s get on.” Norton made a large paper boat, had Nokigo remove the barrier, and put everyone on the boat.

When they returned to the Kingdom of Oycot, Norton arranged for them to stay at a hotel in a seaside entertainment complex.

Sleeping in a hotel near a seaside resort can speed up recovery.

Just as they were leaving the planet with their people, on another distant planet, inside the headquarters of the Wasteland Interstellar Pirates.

Several pirate leaders sat in their office, puffing on cigarettes as they watched the images on the big screen.

"I really don't know which planet those guys came from, that they dared to go there to die."

"If this planet could really be taken so easily, how could they possibly have a share?"

"These people are utterly ridiculous, but unfortunately they left too quickly! They couldn't even last a little over a year!"

"By the way, what about the abilities those people displayed? Was it magic?"

"It doesn't look like it, but with our current level of technology, we should be able to handle it."

"If you're so sure, then send someone over to test the waters again!"

At this point, everyone fell silent.

Because at that moment, the previously clear image suddenly turned into a snowflake.

This means that their remote space surveillance system has been discovered and destroyed.

"Now it seems that their technological level is probably on par with ours! Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to easily discover our surveillance cameras and destroy them."

"This outcome also serves as a reminder that the other side is far more complex than it appears. They are very well-hidden..."

"The plan remains unchanged. This time, we'll send an elite team. Even if we can't eliminate these enemies, we must find out where their home base is!"

"That's right! Since they are so powerful, their home planet must also be a planet rich in resources!"

"Then it's decided..."

After discussing it for a while, the next action was unanimously approved.

"What is this thing?"

Inside the space station, Norton looked at the junk laid out before him and expressed his incomprehension.

"This is a small space surveillance device, a type of drone. Nolan just discovered its existence; it was filming its owner at the time, so it must belong to the interstellar pirate crew." Nolan pulled up a screen to show Norton.

In the scene, this pile of trash was originally a flying machine the size of a washbasin. It was later captured by Nolan, blasted into its current state by a laser beam, and then captured back by a flying machine sent out by Nolan.

Norton nodded and poked it with his finger: "What learning or practical value does this thing have for us?"

"No, Master, their technology is at least five hundred years behind our space station. Our small unmanned reconnaissance aircraft are far superior to theirs!" Nolan waved his hand, and the image switched to their own small unmanned reconnaissance aircraft.

Strictly speaking, it should be called a small unmanned reconnaissance aircraft.

This little guy is amazing!

Not only is it fast enough, but it also boasts advantages such as long-range information transmission, fast reaction speed, clear imaging, and built-in stealth capabilities.

“However…” Nolan waved his hand again, and the image changed to a green planet: “Based on the remaining information transmission function of this thing, Nolan tracked down the location of the target planet. Nolan suspects that this should be the headquarters of that interstellar pirate crew.”

"Well done!" Norton gave Nolan a thumbs up and said, "Record the planet's location. Our second... no! third target is there! But before we go, shouldn't we return the favor? Send a drone over, and bring along a cute little boy. If the target is confirmed, give them a little boy."

“Yes, Master!” Nolan nodded.

Suddenly I remembered the uninhabited planet occupation flag; I still have a few of them!

Having returned to the planet, Norton didn't care whether it was the planet where Whitebeard had suffered or not, and simply planted his flag there.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for successfully conquering the second planet and gaining new features. Please check your management ring.]

"A new feature?" Norton hurriedly opened the ring and found that there was another unnamed planet on the management interface.

Meanwhile, an "e" appeared in the management and construction options, indicating that the newly added function has been implemented in the construction options.

Upon opening the construction options, Norton's eyes widened in surprise.

"A teleportation array! Is it appropriate for this thing to appear in this world?" Norton was speechless after reading the teleportation array's description.

[Ding! Is it appropriate for you to appear in this world?]

"Makka Pakka..."

Norton dared not say another word...

What are you waiting for?

Norton boldly raised his hand and named the planet Purple Insect Star.

Then, a teleportation array was established in the Purple Insect Star, the Moon, the Space Station, the Kingdom of Oycot, and the Alliance Leader's Room of the Free Alliance.

In this way, if Erin is too busy to go anywhere Norton wants, he can simply go there himself.

After stepping into the teleportation array and selecting the teleportation space station, Norton returned to the space station after a dizzying spin and a flash of light.

Now it was Nolan's turn to be surprised: "Master, what principle did you use to return? Why couldn't Nolan crack it?"

Norton adopted a mysterious expression and said, "There are some things... even someone as intelligent as you can't understand, so don't overthink it!"

"Oh." Nolan nodded and said nothing more.

Nolan didn't say anything, but Nokiko and the others still didn't understand.

Eileen felt threatened: "Brother, tell me, how did you suddenly appear here without me!"

Full of gunpowder flavor.

“Aba… Aba… Aba…” Norton widened his eyes and pretended to be mute.

puff...

Bonnie couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing Noki rushing towards him with her claws outstretched, Norton took off running: "Nolan, the problem with Purple Insect Star is solved. Let's go to the second target planet, which is the first target planet you planned before."

“Yes, Master.” Nolan nodded, and the space station immediately changed direction and flew over.
