Reverse Kill!

"Hahahaha... It seems it's over! I wonder if you, in your current state, would be willing to sing for your great master again? Tell us the story of when you ran away from home?" Repikak said with a maniacal laugh.

Sig could sense the chilling killing intent emanating from him; clearly, he shared the same thought as Zig—to kill "him" here!

Repikak is just feeling confident of victory, so he's only making a couple of sarcastic remarks about Sig...

Although he only had one leg and one arm left, Sig stood firmly, though his face was somewhat ashen.

"So... you deliberately let me see through you?" Sig asked angrily.

"Otherwise, do you think you can see through the Illusion Devil Fruit's abilities?" Repikak said disdainfully, while looking at the "Short Blade" in his right hand with satisfaction.

The special effects drawn on the blade had worn down considerably, so Repikak repainted them.

Without the painted-on special effects, it wouldn't have been so easy for Repikak to tear through Sig's scales. He would have had to be slower, allowing Sig to dodge before the bones were damaged, instead of leaving his arm and leg intact...

However, this sharp special effect is obviously easy to erase. In the event of a clash of weapons, the effect would not be very noticeable. Repikak had been hiding this technique all along.

They even concealed the Illusion Devil Fruit's ability to inflict negative effects on their opponents...

Until Sig takes the bait!

At least it looks like... they've taken the bait.

Sig genuinely didn't know about the Illusion Devil Fruit's abilities before, and only now did he learn its name, but...

Sig had already figured out what Repikak was plotting!

Repikak slowly took two steps toward Sig, while Sig, as if fighting a cornered beast, stood on one leg and slightly bent over, as if ready to pounce at any moment.

However, the loss of a leg and an arm, and the Sig of that strange weapon, clearly made Repikak careless. His face was filled with murderous intent, and at the same time, artillery fire rang out outside...

Thanks to the Triangle Current, it only takes half an hour for the Buster Call flagship to Marineford, the Marine Headquarters, to Enies Lobby. Although the Buster Call has not yet been activated, Enies Lobby is almost razed to the ground, so the Marine Headquarters has naturally sent reinforcements.

"The disobedient dog is here, I'll give you this stray dog first..." Repikak suddenly realized something was wrong.

Even now, Siegfried still shows no intention of pulling the giants outside to protect him?

Whether it's useful or not is another matter, but surely he must have had this intention?

Repikak realized something was wrong, but it was too late!

He took two steps forward, and although his shadow hadn't yet reached the location of Sig's severed arm and leg, it had already reached the spot where the blood was flowing from them!

If you look closely, you'll see that it's not the shadow covering the blood, but rather, defying the principles of optics, the blood is covering the shadow.

Suddenly, an even stronger will of depravity surged from the shadow toward Repikak's physical form. At the same time, with a grotesque push and kick, it moved on its own to the corresponding position on Repikak's shadow!

At the same time, their flesh began to proliferate erratically, emanating a sense of depravity. Following the connection between the shadow and the original body, it infected Repikak's flesh and flesh, impacting his will, causing abnormal lumps to grow and swell on the flesh of his right hand and left leg, with granulation tissue beginning to sprout on the surface...

"Ah!"

The double blow to his body and will caused Repikak to let out a scream, and at the same time he unleashed his Conqueror's Haki with all his might!

Under the overwhelming power of Conqueror's Haki, the disturbance to his will was temporarily suppressed, but his arm and leg were gradually becoming less human-like...

Repikak barely managed to control his body, trying to sketch a self-portrait to stabilize his form—although Repikak didn't understand the principle behind this, he quickly came up with a way to break it.

However, it was too late. As Sig launched his surprise attack, he had already leaped into the air in his Elementalization. With only one arm and one leg remaining, he spun rapidly around his waist and abdomen, using his remaining arm and leg as double blades, like a lightning boomerang...

After accelerating in its Elementalization state, the re-materialized form charged towards Repikak.

Thunder, God, Slash!

Repikak's face showed fear—frightened because Sig's aura had fully recovered, unaffected by his missing limbs or the suppression from his illusion, and fearful because... this move might kill him!

Faced with Sig's attack, Repikak managed to block it with his still-functioning left hand, using a series of "Pen Pen Pen" strokes, but... it only prevented him from being completely cleaved in two!

After darting past like a boomerang, Sig landed behind Repikak, maintaining a steady half-squat even with only one leg.

And Repikak...

The "Pen Pen Pen" was shattered, and at the same time, most of his waist was torn apart, with flesh and blood flying everywhere—not that it was cut off, but that it was violently torn apart. A section of his waist was obviously missing, and most of the "special effects" drawn on his body had been washed away.

Repikak still didn't want to give up, forcing himself to try and "draw" his shattered body. As long as he was alive, there was a chance to heal, but...

"Drawing here is invalid," Sig said calmly.

Repikak pretended to be on the second floor, letting Sig, who thought he was on the third floor, see through him, while he was actually on the fourth floor. But... Sig was on the fifth floor!

If Sig had used all his tricks from the start, because he didn't understand Repikak's abilities, even if he had proven that "drawing" was invalid, he still wouldn't have been able to completely seal the abilities of the two pens. Even if he could have won, he wouldn't have been able to kill his opponent.

Moreover, it's hard to say who is stronger between the two. Repikak, who indirectly uses the Devil Fruit ability, is also the type who has "many fancy tricks." Sig might not even be able to "win."

But like Repikak, Sig was determined to kill him from the very beginning, even at the risk of getting injured, he kept his trump card hidden until he was confident he could take him down!

At this point, granulation tissue had already grown on the upper arm and thigh—genuinely regenerating granulation tissue.

With the ability of the Rose Path, it's just an arm and a leg; they can regenerate in no time. Moreover, his aura won't be weakened by this hundred-odd pounds of flesh and blood. The initial weakness was just Sig's disguise.

As for the effects of the Illusion Devil Fruit...

Yes, it did exist originally. However, when Sig was on the Numancia Flamingo, he analyzed Jora's "Art Devil Fruit." Although he only grasped a little bit of it and it wasn't very effective against enemies, Sig used it to "artisticize" the colors on his body, rendering it ineffective—which was perfect for breaking the "color" effect.

At this point, having the "painting" declared invalid became the final straw for the peacock, causing him to hesitate for a moment before finally succumbing to his grief...

The scent of the Peacock Devil Fruit has vanished; the scent of the Brush-Brush Fruit has vanished...

Obviously, when attached to an object, damage to the object will cause the fruit to die and be reborn.

Sig didn't forget to pick up his last remaining loot— the Illusion Pen —before transforming into lightning and disappearing...
