seabed.
Nami swam in the water like a mermaid, and the water seemed to be alive. It supported her body as she continued to dive, gradually sinking deeper and deeper until she came to a stop at the slightly dark seabed.
In Nami's spiritual world.
A group of souls exuding warm white light resides in the core, and the outer layer of this group of souls is wrapped in the center by a larger light exuding a little golden light.
The soul exuding a little golden light seemed a little sluggish, with little spiritual power left, but even so, it was still larger than the white soul.
No words or dialogue are needed.
The pale golden soul is undoubtedly Ron's, while the pale white soul is Nami's.
The mark of the Marked Fruit is locked to the body and cannot be eliminated unless the body is destroyed. Ron was very decisive and immediately gave up his body, assuming a posture of perishing together, while the soul shuttled away at that moment and went straight to Punk Hassard.
For ordinary people, it is very difficult for Ron to attach his soul to the other person. Either he has to completely defeat the other person's spirit, or he has to find ways to achieve a resonance.
But Nami is different.
As his magic user, relying on the connection between the magic marks, the soul level itself resonates all the time, so there is almost no mutual rejection.
When Nami was about to be knocked down by the flying squirrel, it was Ron's soul that arrived, instantly entered Nami's body, took control of Nami's body, and used the last remaining strength to knock the flying squirrel and others away, and then controlled Nami. The beautiful body jumped into the sea.
Nami may not be able to stay underwater for a long time, but for a magician of Ron's level, she can resonate with the elements, can 'talk' to the water flow, and can survive and breathe even under water.
"How is this going?"
Nami's soul, which had been exhausted, was gradually recovering over time. Her consciousness seemed a little confused. She could feel the power wrapped outside her soul that did not belong to her, but she had no idea about this power. There is no sense of rejection.
And she also judged that this power should come from Ron. She would not misidentify Ron's soul power, because there had been countless spiritual exchanges in the past.
"It's just what you know it is."
Ron's soul slowly let go of Nami's soul and no longer controlled Nami's body. His spirit communicated with her: "Locked by the ability of the Marked Fruit, I cannot escape Dressrosa. I can only pretend to die together." Only then can we escape.”
Nami was still in a dazed state and said: "That means your body has been destroyed... So what are you going to do now?"
"That's all we can do for now."
Ron said helplessly: "I suspect that the top leaders of the world government have special abilities that can lock my existence, just like the life card locks me, so I even split up one-tenth of the original one that was intended to be used as a spare. The body was also destroyed in that battle."
The Marked Fruit should only be marked on his own body, but Ron suspected that the World Government had something like a life card that was locked, so to be on the safe side, the split 'Little Ron' was not preserved and was included in the battle. Destroyed.
The world government wants to kill him at all costs, and the source must be the existence above the Five Old Stars, the Im who sits on the throne.
Ron didn't know the opponent's abilities or what other cards the opponent had. For him, the safest way was to cause real death.
He is actually dead.
For ordinary people, physical destruction means death.
But Ron is different. His powerful soul allows him to stay in this world with his soul even if his body is destroyed.
Of course, even if his mental power reaches more than 300 points, he still cannot exist independently with his soul permanently. His mental power will continue to be lost, and he will either be attached to the magic tower, rely on the magic tower to survive, or be attached to other lives. on the body.
Of course Ron didn't want to get into the magic tower.
Just be Voldemort for the time being and rely on Nami to survive for a while.
When his spiritual attributes exceed 500 points, he should be able to absorb various elements and vitality from the outside world and reshape his own body.
If the World Government could even lock onto his soul and continue to pursue him, then he would have to rely on his own abilities to continue entangled with the other party, but Ron felt that it was unlikely.
Moreover, his soul is now completely hidden in Nami's spiritual world. As long as the perception and communication with the outside world are cut off, even if Robin and others communicate with Nami on a spiritual level, they will only touch Nami and will not be aware of it. His presence.
"It's good to be safe..."
Nami breathed a sigh of relief.
Although losing the body is also very troublesome, for magicians, there can always be a solution.
Nami asked: "Then how can you recover?"
"Um… "
Ron pondered for a moment and said: "To fully recover, it should require flesh and blood magic or high-level life magic, or if the mental power breaks through to more than 500 points, it may be possible to recover."
Nami frowned slightly and said, "Manxili? She shouldn't be able to do it..."
After Manxili received the magic mark and became a magician, the ability of the healing fruit did become better, but even a broken arm could not be regenerated, let alone a complete body, which was almost equivalent to resurrecting a dead person.
"It's actually not that difficult to survive."
Ron said: "With the help of undead magic, you can make me appear in the form of an undead, or create a magic puppet with an energy source, or simply attach it to a magic tower, but in these ways my soul will be exposed. I'm worried that the government still has the ability and method to lock souls, so to be on the safe side, I'll stay with you first."
"???"
Nami was stunned for a moment and said, "Live at my place?"
"Well... it just happens to be able to protect your safety. I can take action when I'm in danger. I can still use magic with your body..."
"no!!"
Nami decisively refused.
What the hell is living in her body? ! Absolutely not!
Ron sighed and said: "Other ways of survival are very dangerous... Let me think about it, let's go to Wano Country. Robin is over there, I will discuss it with her... "
Looking for Robin
Nami fell silent.
"... Let me think about it, um... it's not completely impossible... But when I ask you to stay, you stay in the mental space and are not allowed to come out!"
