Thump… Clack… Cl— Thump… Thump! The sound of bodies and rifles hitting the floor soon followed as half of the Marines collapsed, each with a wound akin to a bullet hole in their chests, but no bullets. The rest watched in shock, uncertainty about what they’d just witnessed clear on their faces. Scarlette merely flicked the remaining blood off her fingertips, observing the way she’d had her Tisserands weave her gauntlets. A precise, skin-tight matrix of adhesive substance that she could willingly harden just by infusing it with her Devil Fruit’s own essence, yet leaving the ends of her fingers exposed.“That’s…” Loomis retched:
“That’s really gross.”“Yep. Yep. Yep!”
“Mm…,” Myers nodded slowly. Lecter shook his head, almost disapprovingly, while Voorhees and Freddy looked to one another and shrugged. Sweeney simply gave Loomis a comforting pat on the shoulder, keeping her eyes away from the scene in its entirety.“Tch! Come on,” Scarlette said:
“I’ve done far worse than that.”“You’re not helping your case!”
“No…? Well—” Yawn! “—neither’s this guy,” she replied, now turning back to the LT. The man had recovered, sword in hand, and was clearly weighing up his options. Gritty determination on his face was a sure sign that he had no intention of surrendering. Was it duty? Or was it pride? One couldn’t tell. She could at least tell, staring lazily into his eyes, that he was seriously considering a direct charge. She’d seen that look before — that look of desperation. And, quite frankly, it bored her. “Are we really gonna do this? Because I don’t want to.”
“Yes,” he barked. She rolled her eyes. “Men! Pick up the wounded — return to base ASAP!”“B— But, Lieutenant—”“That’s an order, seaman,” the LT roared, drill sergeant style:
“I’m not going to let this one get away— Ack!”“À Bout Portant… Rose Ensanglantée.”
Splat! A wet sound, a spattering of crimson petals, and a falling body all rapidly succeeded one another as the overzealous officer found himself clutching a mortal wound in his gut and laying on the floor. At this point, Big Sis was pretty sure Loomis and a couple of others were now truly sickened by such a sight. Seeing it against a Sea King was one thing — the same technique versus a human was another.“Now,” she leaned over him:
“What have we learned…?”“You’re— Agh! —a b!tch!”
“Hm… Actually,” she huffed, standing straight and flicking some of her hair out of her one exposed eye. “I’m Grimm-Rosa Scarlette,” came the rather blasé announcement of her identity, “and — s’il vous plaît — could you point me in the direction of an actually competent fighter. Preferably that Rear Admirable.”“Um— Big Sis?!”“Sweeney,” Scarlette called:
“I know I said it wrong!”“Look out!”
