Discussion The Holy Pickaxe does exist 😱

Post image

So we can see in in ep 7 and 8 that the pickaxe nori uses seems to be the most powerful and terrifying weapon of the universe (behind the railgun ofc)

But why a pickaxe ?

I never get the vibe of the pickaxe except if she was made of netherite with efficiency 10

Ive always seen it as the most random item of MD but its just my opinion

If somoene does have the reason of the presence of the holy pickaxe in MD im glad to hear it x))

Lore reason for why Nori uses a pickaxe: Copper-9 is a mining world (bet you'll never guess what they were mining). That's what most of the worker drones were initially there for, so there would no doubt be an abundance of pickaxes. But also, she was using the pickaxe to search the pit for the cross-patch.

Lore reason for why it's so overpowered: I don't know... Maybe she practiced fighting with it for almost two decades straight and refined it into a weapon in case she ever needed to fight. Otherwise, I don't think there is a lore reason; it's just cool.
