The bat monster shrieks and charges Bleu with feral rage. It raises its massive fist in order to utterly destroy her body until nothing but a smear remains. Clown knows that she has no hope of stopping it but with a bit of luck she can make use of it. Taking a deep breath she jumps in the air and goes limber. Her body slides out of the way like a swaying leaf in the wind. The beasts fist hits the blast door behind her and goes through like a finger through wet paper. But it being a dumb animal it does not realize that it needs to unclench its fist to pull it free. So rather it pulls with all its might and tears the blast door out the wall whole. That door was meant to contain any explosion that may go off in this ammo depot turned arena so even though it does it with relative ease the monster still needs a few moments to tear it to shreds, giving Clown the perfect opportunity to slip out.
"SORU!"
Hearing its prey escape the beast looks in Pepes direction and gives chase.
There was a contingent of Marines stationed on the other side of the door. Their job was to finish off Cavalier should the CP-0 agents fail. As soon as they saw the monster appearing they opened fire without hesitation. Horns blared and series of small explosives went off which were meant to distract and confuse Silver. The beast did not care. The hall filled with gas which forced out oxygen and would choke out not just his flames but the pirate himself. They didn't account for the hole the monster tore in the fort. They fired volley after volley of specialized ammunition meant to slow down or cause as much pain to the target as possible. But the hide of the bat was covered upon layers and layers of hair like spring steel. Together they formed weaves of steel that alone would've been sufficient at absorbing all the energy of the bullets. But the ammunition never even touched it. For its outlines were blurry and ephemeral. Those with observation haki could see their bullets crumbling to dust just a moment before impact. Every hair on the beast was vibrating and they ground the projectiles up into a metallic mist. They stood no chance. They couldn't even slow it down.
"Shit! Shit! Shit!"
Clown ran as fast as she could. The awakened devil inside Silver and its abhorrence for life terrified her beyond explanation. She needed to find something, ANYTHING to halt it even for a second.
"YES!"
And she found it.
"ROB LUCCI!"
