Because the main purpose of this trip was to hunt Neptunes, Ron did not bring Nami and Perona, or rather, neither of them wanted to come.
[Fishing? Nami]
[fishing? Are there any schools of fish around here?]
[Hmm... Go to the windless zone to catch big fish]
[That must be the lair of the Neptune type! ! !]
[Yeah, let’s go fishing for bigger fish like sea kings]
[…]
The conversation with Perona was roughly the same. When she heard about fishing for sea kings or something, Perona's horrified expression still lingered in Ron's mind.
Of course, the most important thing is that there is no danger in hunting Neptunes, but some people may do something secretly, which may cause some danger. Vergo and Doflamingo may take action.
Ron himself was not afraid, but if he took Nami and Perona with him and encountered them at sea, it would obviously be more troublesome to take them to escape than to go alone.
When Moria was defeated last time, Ron planned to kill him together with Vergo, but he pretended to be seriously injured, and Vergo still held back and did not take action.
certainly.
The main reason is that after the battle between Ron and Moriah, although he killed Moriah by virtue of the geographical location, he released high-level magic many times. Even with the core of the magic tower providing energy, his spirit was already a little tired, and Will Ge is also good at domination and defense. If he fights again, he has no absolute certainty or chance of winning.
So Vergo didn't take action, so he didn't take action either.
For such a small role, it wasn't worth taking any risks. He didn't regard Vergo as an enemy that needed special attention at all. He was just dust, and he could just sweep it away when there was a suitable opportunity in the future.
"Neptune type..."
Ron temporarily put the matter of Nami and Perona behind and entered a spiritual perspective, looking through the sea to the world below the sea.
Today, Ron's mental perspective can cover a much larger area than before, reaching several hundred meters in radius. The closer he is to his body, the stronger his insight will be.
certainly.
A coverage area of several hundred meters is still too small compared to the vastness of the sea. Even if it is just the windless zone, it is still nothing.
However, the Neptune species are also very large and have a coverage area of hundreds of meters, so it is not difficult to search in the windless zone.
soon.
The first Neptune appeared in Ron's field of vision.
From a mental perspective of hundreds of meters, when I came into contact with this Neptune, I could only glimpse a section of its tail. The size of this Neptune was obviously over a thousand meters!
Large Neptune type!
Those whose bodies reach over one thousand meters are all large-scale Neptunes, those whose bodies exceed three thousand meters are giant Neptunes, and then there are super-giant Neptunes whose bodies exceed five thousand meters, and those which are comparable to the main body of the New World Elephant Island-level existence!
With Ron's current strength, if a large sea king with a length of 1,000 meters were to fight him to the death on the sea, he would be able to grind the opponent to death. However, sea kings of this size are also very intelligent and would not Let him attack you like a wild beast, and you will most likely dive to the bottom of the sea after receiving one of his spells.
It's impossible to chase him to the bottom of the sea. Although he can enter the sea, the magic he can release in the sea will be greatly limited, so once he escapes, there is no way to chase him.
"You can give it a try. If you can hit its vital point with one blow..."
Ron controlled the boat and followed the large sea king creature under the sea from a distance.
Among the achievements of hunting the Neptune, small, medium, large and giant are all different achievements, which are upgraded in order.
When Ron came to the Windless Belt this time, he could basically hunt down the small and medium-sized Neptunes steadily and kill them with one blow as long as he encountered them. However, it was not so easy for the large Neptunes, so his bottom line was to achieve For the first two achievements, try your best to achieve the third one.
Ron controlled the boat and chased the large sea king, but the large sea king never noticed the boat above.
"You haven't discovered me yet. It seems to be the reason for Hailoushi..."
Ron glanced at the bottom of the sail of the boat. There was a huge sea stone placed there, which was the core of the magic tower he made.
Because after killing Moria this time, Ron used the terrifying three-masted sailing ship as a captured material and exchanged three huge rough seastones with his headquarters. Including the previous ones, there were five pieces in total, so he brought them with him on this trip. If you get one piece out, it doesn't matter if you lose it.
Unexpectedly, placing the Sea Tower Stone on the boat still had the effect of confusing the Neptunes, making it impossible for the Neptunes to detect the boats on the sea.
“…”
Ron squinted his eyes, and the insight from his mental perspective was concentrated around the core of the magic tower. His mental power surged out, wrapping the core of the magic tower and isolating it from the outside world.
Almost at the moment when Ron cut off the sea floor stone, in the sea about two hundred meters deep below, the large sea king with a body size of nearly a kilometer stopped moving, and its huge eyeballs moved upward, looking above the head and 'appearing out of thin air' boat.
Crash!
This large sea king species paused for a moment and immediately rushed out of the sea. Its huge head pushed Ron's boat on its nose and stared at the boat for a while.
Without saying a word, Ron's figure flickered and flew in front of the nose of the large sea king. With a wave of the dragon-core wand in his hand, a torrent of blazing flames surged out.
"... Purgatory Roar!"
Ordinary magic is obviously meaningless for such a large Neptune. Ron did not use the third-level ice magic, but used the third-level fire purgatory roar to attack the weak points in the nostrils. The purgatory roar is slow compared to the activation. The ice dragon whirling dance is undoubtedly more suitable.
The crimson fire flow was like lava, pouring in from the nostrils of the large sea king. In an instant, its nose was roasted, and the aroma of barbecue appeared, spreading on the sea.
"hiss!!"
This large sea king creature let out a roar that shook the sea surface, and spurted out two jets of water from its nostrils. At the same time, it drilled its head down, and with a pop, it got into the sea.
"Is this all right?"
Ron looked at this scene and couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. It seemed that it was more appropriate to use the third-level magic of the wind system just now. Unfortunately, he does not have the third-level single-target burst magic of the wind system, whirlpool storm and ice dragon whirling dance. There is a burst delay.
Both of these abilities have a certain degree of control. The whirlpool storm is attractive, and the ice dragon dance can freeze the earth. However, in front of large sea kings with a body size of more than a thousand meters, such control is obviously not enough. May restrict the other party.
The six-staff light prison is also difficult to restrain such a huge Neptune type.
Looking at the churning sea, Ron shook his head, and his mental power surged out, pushing the overturned boat back upright, salvaging the core of the magic tower, and throwing it back onto the boat.
At this moment, Ron suddenly thought.
What would happen if he got into a Neptune-like body and released magic? !
It seems feasible!
He can release the Elf Ball instantly, which means that after a third-level magic, he can release the Elf Ball immediately without having to escape from the attack range.
Ron remembered that when the headquarters' Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel attacked the Sea Kings, he also attacked from within the body, and easily killed a medium-sized Sea King.
Thinking of this, Ron couldn't help but his eyes lit up. He felt that not only large-scale Neptunes could be killed, but even giant Neptunes, it seemed that he could give it a try!
