I'll leave that one to those who think that "lo no natfe" is sound.

The Book says "ze'epu", but I think either works.

"no da no de zo'u ..." = "ro da naku naku su'o de zo'u ..." = "ro da
su'o de zo'u", so your double "no" could be rephrased as:

sedu'o ro natfe puze'e su'oroi nalselganse srera

Unless of course "no natfe" is supposed to be embedded in a
subordinate clause, something like "fau lo nu djuno no natfe", in
which case the quantifier cannot jump out to the main clause's prenex.
