[ but if he does, then he doesn't have to think about how powerless he is, in the face of whatever the hell in this place is causing it all — why would patho-gen imbue some of the augmented with a soul that will, inevitably, pull them towards death?
(because they don't care. because they don't care about them, not as people, individuals, not as anything except a resource that is easily replaceable, and it makes his blood boil —) ]
I believe so. When I examined him, his Soul... reacted.
[ he sighs. there is some real regret in it. ]
Revolutionary-ya. He's going to die. The best you can do is to try and be there for him. I can't imagine it's a pleasant thing to go through twice.
stalking down an alley, flames breaking out like a rash, his voice becoming more erratic: )
What the hell do you mean, it "reacted"?
Can't you — I don't know. Take it out of him? His Soul. You're a surgeon, aren't you?
( maybe law already tried. sabo thinks he should try again. and again. and again. until it works. what's the use of law's devil fruit if he can't even do the most important thing and save ace's life? )
His demeanour changed, [ comes the response, and then, almost without pause, ] Don't be rash about this.
[ he can hear it in sabo's voice, a kind of desperation, the kind that turns into rage and violence all too quickly. ]
Do you really think I wouldn't have done that already, if I could? The augmenter repels my powers. And trying to remove it otherwise... I believe it would only kill him faster.
But there are others who seem to share his soul type, who have died and then woken up again. If he dies, there is a high chance his soul will reawaken him. Clinically dead, functionally alive.
