If that black Nen hit her, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Even as Law's attack was about to touch her, the silver-haired woman still had the presence of mind to assess the threat of that black Nen.
Ultimately, the presence of that black Nen was simply too strong, so strong that it even robbed her of the chance and the very thought to counterattack.
Originally, with her abilities, she loved close-quarters combat. She just needed an opportunity to touch the enemy, and she could basically achieve checkmate.
But the black Nen's deterrent power was so immense that it killed any thought of a counterattack.
Touching the opponent might cause petrification, but the opponent touching her would also be a one-step plunge into the abyss.
Coupled with the Mender's outcome and the surrounding environment that was unfavorable to her, her edge was now gone.
The silver-haired woman dangerously dodged Law's attack, retreating to a spot not far from Chucu and the Mender's corpse.
Law just wanted to end the fight quickly, so he pressed his attack relentlessly.
Facing Law's fierce, opportunistic assault, the silver-haired woman, having lost her will to fight, could only be dominated, with no strength to fight back.
Watching the one-sided battle, Chucu thought about seizing the chance to slip away.
However, whether intentional on the silver-haired woman's part or not, amidst constantly being pushed back, she didn't pull the battle away but instead circled around the area.
This made it impossible for Chucu to move.
If she were willing to take a risk, she could certainly flee the scene directly, but Chucu was unwilling to take that risk. She worried that making a big move would cause her to draw the firepower meant for the silver-haired woman.
Watching the silver-haired woman barely holding on, Chucu showed a gloomy expression. Her weak sense of crisis had finally kicked in.
Outside the battle zone, Ging watched the battlefield.
His Nen was nearly depleted now, unable to assist Law, so he could only be a passive observer.
Further away, Coo and Kuro finally noticed the fight between Law and the silver-haired woman.
The Mender was dead, their goal achieved.
Essentially, the cooperation between Coo and Law ended at this moment.
So, from Coo's standpoint, she certainly wouldn't proactively help... she would just stand by and watch.
But in reality, Coo did have the inclination to help Law, but she just couldn't muster the energy right now.
Because, although her child had returned to her body in the form of an Aura Mass, it had become a stillbirth.
Unlike other beings sealed into the Mender's pages, the underdeveloped fetus was simply too fragile.
It was already a difficult feat for it to autonomously return to the mother's womb. Becoming a stillbirth was only natural.
This was why Coo was feeling down.
Losing a child is something every mother finds hard to accept.
Kuro glanced at the dejected Coo, hesitated for a moment, then decided to stay with her instead of helping Law.
He even found a reason to convince himself, 'Law was so strong, why would he need anyone's help? Definitely not. Absolutely not.'
Inside the battle zone, Law perfectly suppressed the silver-haired woman.
Compared to the previous battle, this one was relatively easy.
With the Mender already dealt with, Law no longer needed to be frugal with his black Nen. He used it as he pleased, forcing the silver-haired woman into a desperate situation.
'No, at this rate, I'll...'
The silver-haired woman began to panic.
She wanted to move the battle to an area with thorny trees and light fragments, but Law understood her abilities. Even if it meant sacrificing attack opportunities, he kept her suppressed on the flat ground.
After several rounds, she fell into a situation of slow death.
A turning point soon arrived.
Law found an opening and tore off the silver-haired woman's arm.
If not for losing Shin, he wouldn't have had to tangle with the silver-haired woman for so long due to the reduced attack range.
After tearing off her arm, the situation became completely one-sided.
For the silver-haired woman, the possibility of disengaging from the battle had clearly hit rock bottom.
Yet, even in her desperate state, her strength was still evident as she made various effective, desperate struggles.
From an enemy's standpoint, Ging rather admired the silver-haired woman. Anyone else in this situation would have collapsed entirely. Yet the silver-haired woman still faintly held the possibility of turning the whole situation around.
That tenacity was truly remarkable.
But no matter how strong the silver-haired woman's tenacity was, in front of Law, once she lost an arm, the fight was essentially over.
Without any major waves or unexpected developments, and without giving the silver-haired woman any chances, Law struck several heavy blows, severely injuring her.
When she took the final blow, the silver-haired woman didn't die on the spot but collapsed to the ground, barely alive.
Her consciousness was already blurred. She couldn't even move a finger, completely in a state of waiting for death.
Not far away, Chucu watched the fallen silver-haired woman with a grave expression. She shifted her gaze to Law's expressionless face.
'This human was simply... a grim reaper.'
Chucu hadn't seen how Law had killed the Mender, but she had witnessed Law defeat the silver-haired woman, giving her a deeper understanding of Law's terror.
Her earlier weak sense of crisis now erupted like a volcano, frantically warning her to flee the scene.
But Chucu dared not act rashly.
Because she felt that some of Law's Aura was already locked onto her.
Law stood before the barely conscious silver-haired woman, his right hand radiating the glow of Nen.
A final blow would end this fight.
Law slightly spread his five fingers, curling them into a claw shape, ready to deliver the final strike.
Around them, Ging, Chucu, and even Coo and Kuro were watching Law.
Just then, an unexpected guest intruded upon the scene.
Law only moved his arm slightly before stopping, his attention involuntarily drawn to this unexpected guest.
Ging and the others also noticed the newcomer.
It was a foot bone, hopping across the flat ground. Its path was wobbly, but it was heading in their direction.
"What's that?"
Kuro was puzzled.
He saw the faint red light on the foot bone.
Not only Kuro, but Law and Ging also saw it.
'Could it be... the Skeleton?'
They had guessed correctly.
The Skeleton hopped with difficulty. His low-to-the-horizon vision made it hard to see clearly ahead, so he didn't notice Law and the others.
As he hopped, the Skeleton suddenly sensed something. The red light on his toe bone began to shun.
"I smell... the scent of calcium!"
Truly, god never seals off all exits. Excitedly, the Skeleton hastened towards the source of the smell.
That source was the silver-haired woman's severed arm.
The Skeleton, completely oblivious to the surrounding gazes, hopped over to the severed arm. Driven by overwhelming need, he immediately used his ability and began absorbing the calcium from the arm.
'This much calcium should be enough to restore me up to my thigh.'
The Skeleton thought excitedly. As he absorbed more calcium, the red light grew stronger. Moreover, as the bone hyperplated up to his shin, it also pushed the red light higher, simultaneously raising his field of vision.
Then, he naturally saw Law.
The regenerating leg bone cracked with terror, developing fractures.
The red light at the top, acting like the Skeleton's eyes, instantly contracted to the size of a pinprick.
'What the hell?'
