Mine looked at Sheele reproachfully. "Wasn't it written in the records? A biological Imperial Arm won't die unless its core is destroyed. These things are the most troublesome to deal with. Without a heart, even Akame's [Murasame] one-hit kill is useless against it."

"Roar!" The biological Imperial Arm let out a roar and charged at Mine at incredible speed. Its fists rained down like a storm, intent on pulverizing her. Mine had nowhere to dodge. As someone unsuited for close combat and wielding a shooting-type Imperial Arm, she was at a tremendous disadvantage.
