• Allen used the Slow-Slow Fruit to stop time, tested the blood net with Corrupted Ashbringer, and then released the time stop to see what the assassins would do.
• The female assassin ordered the weapon fired, but Sentomaru objected because it could devastate Water 7; the male assassin knocked him down and fired a Seastone sphere at Allen.
• The female assassin fled as the sphere erupted into a blinding blast whose heat burned away her clothes and skin, exposing the bones of her spine.
