Chapter 231 Pure Land
It has never happened before that a person who has just died can meet his predecessor who has long died. No one has ever talked about it. After all, life is only once, and the soul of the dead is too rare on the sea. It is like some kind of enduring horror legend at sea used to deceive children who don't like to sleep.
"Mr. Corazon, where is this place? Is the world after death so quiet?" Trafalgar Law was kicked by the man in front of him and flew away for nearly a hundred meters, but his body did not feel any pain. He subconsciously took a look at his appearance.
At this moment, Law appeared in a translucent spirit state, wearing a uniform white robe. Unlike his previous style of clothing, he liked to expose his chest, revealing the tattoo mark of the Heart Pirate Group on his chest. Everyone who came in here wore the same clothes, and even the Celestial Dragons didn't want to get any special treatment.
Seeing that the other party was trying to change the subject, Corazon wiped the tears from his face and grabbed Trafalgar Law by the collar. At this moment, the adopted son of the Warring States period realized from the feel of his hand that the other party had grown so big and strong.
When he was a child, he could easily hold Law in his hands. When Corazon died, Law was still a kid. Looking at Trafalgar Law, who has become a young man now, he still feels a little emotional in his heart. It turns out that time can pass so quickly. In a blink of an eye, Law has grown so tall.
Corazon inherited the tall stature of Don Quixote's family, and his height is nearly three meters. Young Luo is only a head shorter than him. "You are such a worrying child, Luo, can't you live a few more years? I stayed here thinking that when I see you again, you might have become a little old man. Why don't you cherish your life?"
The benefactor's excited saliva sprayed all over Trafalgar Law's face, but the feeling of being cared for made the man's face overflow with a happy smile. He had never felt so relaxed before. Everything in the world had nothing to do with him anymore. "At the age of thirty, I have lived enough. The average number of pirates who adventure on the sea does not even live to my age."
Faced with this kid's unreasonable arguments and Trafalgar Law's relieved expression, the gentle Corazon was furious. She used her free hand to hit Law's face and said, "You have lived even less than I have. This is really annoying!"
Luo was slapped several times on the forehead by his benefactor, which made him feel a little pain in his spirit state. However, this feeling soon disappeared. After all, a spirit is not a human body. Spirits can come into contact with each other, and under normal circumstances, spirits will not dissipate in this space.
Law kept smiling after being beaten. Corazon sighed helplessly. It was useless to save the life of the person since he was already dead. The gentle brother of Tian Yasha could only accept the reality. It was useless to think too much. Law's body was dead in this world, and it would not be easy to resurrect.
Putting down Luo's collar, Corazon suppressed his anger and began to explain to him calmly: "Luo knows you are very curious about where this place is. You can think of it as one of the worlds after death. This white space is called the Pure Land. Some dead souls with unfulfilled wishes will stay here and wait."
Later, through Mr. Corazon's popular science explanation, he understood why his parents were not seen in the Pure Land of One Heart. The souls that could finally stay in this white space had very harsh conditions themselves, and Huangquan would not allow too many spirits to appear here.
If a large number of dead souls crowd into the Pure Land, it will affect the work of the six reincarnations deep in the underworld. The reason why Corazon was fortunate enough to get a pass to enter this place was because his own "resentment" after death was too heavy, and he had two unfulfilled wishes that troubled him and prevented him from reincarnation.
The fact that Trafalgar Law could appear in the Pure Land was actually thanks to Corazon's blessing, because the first wish of this benefactor was to see him again after his death. However, the benefactor did not expect that Law would come to the Pure Land so soon.
Thinking of this, Law felt a lump in his throat. Looking at the pure white and lonely space around him, he couldn't imagine how the other party had to live in a pure land in order to wait for him. The monotonous scenery would make people numb. Mr. Corazon had persisted for him for so many years, and Trafalgar Law was very moved.
In fact, the person Law wanted to see the most after his death was Corazon. The two of them were running towards each other. Although they had no blood relationship, they were already relatives and family. Doflamingo, the born bad guy, had to stand aside.
There is nothing in the Pure Land, which takes the concept of "nothingness" to the extreme. There are no entertainment facilities in the pure white space. Spirits here do not need to eat or drink and can only waste time here. Corazon couldn't even remember how long he had been here.
There is no sun rising and setting here, and there are no reference objects worthy of special attention. The pure land is not damaged by any external force. To be more clear, this place is an alien space under the Yellow Springs, and it is impossible for spirits to record the passage of time by making marks.
Now that Trafalgar Law had come here, he finally gave Corazon some time reference value. He didn't expect that he had been trapped in the Pure Land for nearly twenty years. For the spirit to wait for such a long time, Corazon actually had no sense of reality. After he became familiar with the environment of the Pure Land, he lay in a daze, silently waiting for the person he had been thinking about to appear again.
Corazon, who has been dead for so many years, is of course very curious about the present world. "It's been almost twenty years. Is the current Navy Admiral still Mr. Sengoku?"
Trafalgar Law didn't know how to answer this question. Five years ago, the navy was almost wiped out in the Battle of Marineford. In particular, Marshal Sengoku clearly stated in subsequent reports that he had died in the battle. The navy held a grand funeral for him and even erected memorial statues for future generations to admire. It would be a bit unreasonable if he were not dead.
Law had no intention of deceiving his benefactor. Following the principle that a spirit should not deceive another spirit, he told the truth: "The former Marshal Sengoku died in battle five years ago. After I joined the ranks of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, I entered the Naval Headquarters and saw the bronze statue of Marshal Sengoku inside. But you don't have to be too sad. I have avenged you before I died. That guy Doflamingo was killed by the devil fruit you fed me."
Speaking of which, this guy really doesn't know how to comfort people. Corazon couldn't help rolling his eyes after hearing what Law said. This guy's emotional intelligence is as low as when he was a child. However, he wanted to pour a basin of cold water on his younger brother, "I think it's a bit too early for you to be happy. Doflamingo and Mr. Sengoku should not be dead."
Trafalgar Law: "Ah..."?! The man looked incredulous. He didn't believe that Doflamingo was still alive in that situation.
