The sword he was holding trembled for a moment, but he still went chasing after the Straw Hat crew.
But with this pursuit, it reverted to its previous state.
"Robin, you're attacking too, why aren't you fighting?"
Usopp continually shot stinking gas, explosive fog, and vines, doing his best to impede Weevil's movements. After barely catching his breath, he glanced over and saw Robin standing motionless.
"No, I can't intervene in this operation right now, and..."
Robin pondered for a moment and said puzzledly, "It's strange, why isn't he attacking this way? Logically, we should be the easiest to deal with. Especially you, Usopp, that big guy should really find you annoying."
"Hey! Why aren't you fighting Usopp and the others?"
With a soft voice, Robin raised her doubts directly to Luffy.
Even if he's a fool, he sensed something amiss.
"Black long straight hair, doesn't wear glasses, the boss lady said... can't attack."
Weevil's goofy voice echoed from within the smoke, "I can't see, so I'm afraid of hitting the wrong target."
Upon hearing that, Usopp and the others were all taken aback.
"Usopp!" Nami reacted quickly.
Usopp was faster in response, as the tool master, he immediately took out a wig of black long straight hair for himself and distributed them to everyone.
Aside from Franky who was somewhat reluctant, even Brook, with hair roots embedded within his skull, donned the wig, mixing the afro and long straight hair into a mismatched ensemble.
As for Tashigi, Usopp quickly removed her glasses and untied her hairband.
Why not use the convenience at hand!
"Hey, we're all long straight haired now, so don't attack us!" Usopp shouted towards Weevil.
"Nice!"
Nami gave a thumbs up to Usopp, "Now we're safe!"
Then, the attack continued.
No longer worried about safety, Usopp and the others coordinated with Luffy and continually assisted in the attack.
When Zoro attacked, Nami would first lower the sea clouds, and then Brook would stir up the cold air, allowing Zoro to create ice-like blades that coated Weevil with frost.
Sanji's attack would be assisted by Usopp and Franky, using gas and flames, and borrowing Smoker's smoke to continuously burn and roast him within.
As for Luffy's attacks, everyone was creating opportunities for him, even if Weevil almost got a hit, he would be replaced by Law in time.
After several rounds, Weevil's movements became increasingly slow, seemingly due to his inability to breathe, causing his strength and actions to become sluggish.
Until...
"Three-Sword Style Secret Technique: One Thousand Great Thousand Three Thousand Worlds!!"
Zoro sprinted forward, his two swords spinning, locking onto the target, leaving no room for escape, in a flash the three swords transformed into one, slashing through rapidly.
The diamond surface of Weevil showed a crack under that slash!
The Twinkle-Twinkle Fruit protects against physical attacks but cannot defend against elements!
Continuous elemental attacks, the icy and fiery realm, finally showed the diamond in a weakened state!
"Now's the moment!" Nami shouted: "Weather Egg: Thunder Child Weather!"
Nami swung her Weather Staff, causing the thundercloud amassed overhead for a long time to descend wildly, striking Weevil and paralyzing his movements instantly.
Just before Zoro, Luffy had punched out, and upon rebounding, jumped upwards suddenly. His fist quickly expanded, covered with Haki, and penetrated the thundercloud.
Boom!
"Rubber Rubber..."
The electricity covered the Haki-fueled giant fist, pulled back swiftly, and shot towards Weevil.
"It's a bit painful..."
Weevil, hit by the thunderbolt, bellowed dully, lifting his head enveloped in smoke and fire. Despite not seeing, he sensed the danger.
Sizzle!
A massive amount of Haki enveloped the blade of the naginata. He poised Murakumogiri horizontally, intending to attack the dangerous presence.
But because of this, vulnerable with only a Diamond Body and no Haki Defense, Weevil revealed a weakness!
"Yes, now!"
Law, responsible for transfer and command, finally seized the opportunity, aiming Kikoku at the crack on Weevil and stabbed forward fiercely.
"Injection Shot!"
The Op-Op Fruit created a bullseye, aimed at the crack, thrusting forward abruptly.
Though not yet at the level of ignoring defenses, the powerful penetrative force still pierced through the diamond body via the crack, causing Weevil's entire body to tremble.
From the head shrouded in smoke, a few drops of fresh blood dripped.
"That hurts!"
Weevil involuntarily shouted, his movements momentarily pausing.
"Thunder God Elephant Gun!!"
A colossal fist, emboldened with thunder, pressed towards Weevil.
Feeling it, the now fragile Weevil, concentrated his Haki on the blade—if it struck...
Law watched the gigantic fist closing in on Weevil, a smile playing at the corner of his mouth, "We're winning..."
"Power Shock!!"
A mechanically extended hammerhead, accompanied by a bright shout emanated from afar, its speed like a blur, reaching the side of Luffy inconspicuously. A strange impact force reverberating from the hammer's face sent Luffy toppling, crashing near Law, shattering a swirling mass of ice crystals.
"What's wrong with you? Fool!"
A vigorous yet slightly annoyed voice resonated from the entrance of the research lab.
Renedia, grasping the Mechanical Hammer with both hands, swung it down naturally after sending Luffy flying, the strange impact force dispersing the fire smoke encircling him entirely.
