Compared to the rugged, devil-muscle-man-like build from a few years ago, he looked more like a normal person—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you ignored that terrifying height of 3.7 meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He flicked his finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That thumb-sized spotted mosquito hadn't even had time to flap its wings before it turned into countless powder and drifted down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the part of the ceiling hit by his fingernail remained unscathed; not even the dust around it was shaken off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the embodiment of controlling every muscle and even the cells in the finest details to the peak of perfection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this state, his terrifying strength could be exerted without reservation, and his defense and physical toughness could also be maximized; it had its own advantages and disadvantages compared to the Paper Art Martial Body form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Nuo glanced at the mosquito that had turned into powder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He nodded in satisfaction, then shrank back to his daily build with a swish, and continued humming a little tune while washing dishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire transformation process didn't even take half a second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re going to scare someone to death!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zoro’s startled voice came from the living room behind the door. \"Suddenly becoming that big, I thought some enemy had attacked, but it was just to swat a mosquito!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zoro.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Koushiro’s deep voice followed. \"Mind your manners. You are a guest; how can you be so rude when visiting someone else’s house?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These words sound so familiar. When I was the host entertaining guests at the Isshin Dojo, you said the same thing, right? So when can I ever be rude... hiss, so painful!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Zeff, when did you get back?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to Zoro’s screams, Xia Nuo couldn't help but smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s interesting to say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Except for the family members who lived together day and night, almost everyone else who knew him took his \"Paper Art Martial Body\" as his original appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the original true form was instead considered some kind of mode that was difficult to maintain for a long time after transformation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That brat Sanji had secretly asked him back then if he had eaten the Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Muscle Freak form, and then successfully received a sound beating, running away crying loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone back?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the dishes were finished, Xia Nuo turned off the faucet and wiped his hands with his apron as he walked into the living room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Except for Gin, everyone is back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zeff pulled his fist out of the green-algae head with a \"pop\" and bared his teeth. \"The things that should be said at parting were mostly said at the dinner table just now. We should also set off, Captain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kuina and Koushiro looked at each other, suddenly turned their heads, and stretched as if nothing had happened. \"Time to go, Captain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re not calling him Brother at this time.\" Nojiko muttered behind them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't be so stingy.\" Xia Nuo rubbed his sister’s head. \"You’ve decided too? Really want to go along?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nojiko nodded vigorously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As expected, you had already made up your mind long ago. Actually, from the very beginning, even before you mentioned wanting to practice to me on the Orange-Orange, you had already wanted to go to sea with me, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As expected of Brother, I was completely seen through.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nojiko was a bit embarrassed, but noticing Kuina’s gaze sweeping over, she immediately stood with her hands on her hips and huffed. \"But I was really too weak back then! I didn't have any confidence and didn't want to be a useless burden, so I specifically said I wanted to stay in my hometown. But now...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She clenched her fists tightly. \"I’m very strong now! Not only do I have the power to protect myself, but I can also help you, Brother!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I believe that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Nuo chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps this was the tacit understanding between siblings. Like him, Nojiko knew nothing about swordsmanship, but she showed amazing talent for fist fighting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She first laid the foundation with \"Breathing Fist Technique,\" and then under Xia Nuo’s guidance, she practiced the Six Powers, mastering all three: Shave, Moon Walk, and Finger Pistol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over the past few years, every time Xia Nuo rolled a fist technique secret manual, regardless of whether it was useful to him or not, he basically bought it and handed it to Nojiko.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through hard practice to this day, Nojiko’s strength had advanced by leaps and bounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although there was still a significant gap between her and Kuina, who had already become a Master Swordsman, she was indeed fully qualified to go to the Grand Line to venture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And me, I want to go too!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wooden stairs suddenly vibrated, and an orange-haired girl ran down, her slender and exquisite body as light as a little bird. She simply slid down the railing for the last few steps, raising her hand joyfully at the same time. \"Did you forget about this beautiful girl? Hmph, hmph, don't forget, I am the only navigator; you can't leave me behind!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't mess around.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Nuo flicked her forehead in annoyance. \"You’re not even an adult; what are you joining in the fun for as a child.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Men become adults at eighteen, women at sixteen. Nojiko and Kuina are the same age, and this year they just stepped into the threshold of adulthood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Nami is only fourteen; she can only sit at the children’s table with Zoro and Sanji when eating, still a long way off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Child? Who are you calling a child!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nami puffed up her chest, wanting to prove it, but shrank back after being glared at by Xia Nuo with a dark face. Her eyes rolled, and she turned to say \"ouch,\" clutching her stomach and falling onto the sofa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Nami!\" Sanji slid on his knees into the living room, squatting nervously in front of Nami. \"What’s wrong? Is something uncomfortable?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When did you become like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zoro looked at him with disdain. \"Your brain is still that idiot from before. It’s that, that thing that girls get when they reach a certain age! Back then, Kuina was defeated by me for the first time because she suddenly got that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shut up, you idiot!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kuina’s face flushed red, and she was so angry that she wanted to reach out and scratch Zoro.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone is here, mind the occasion when you speak, hey! Besides, wasn't it just that one time? Don't forget you were defeated by me a full three thousand times later!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1338,"2026-06-17T09:04:16.852Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","90013fd18adbbc4f050a0a32c76c713acd48da8bbc0edec85a1ebd34a6598009","one-piece-starting-by-finding-red-haired-s-sever-chapter-46","one-piece-starting-by-finding-red-haired-s-sever-chapter-44",139,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fone-piece-starting-with-shanks-severed-arm-cover.jpg"]
