[The movements of his feet allow the lad to move deftly out of the way of the numerous attacks. However, none of his dodging comes without a price. Nicks and cuts adorn his body further, his speed still unable to move past the ungodly speed of the monster he faces. Blood ascends around them, the steam from his body turning a deep shade of crimson as it mixes with the plasma he spends.
Sandals hit the dirt with each movement, biding his time for the chance to put in another attack. Unfortunately for Luffy, he hadn't accounted for the amount of time and energy he'd spent in the first flurry of attacks. While Sephiroth spends the time trying to cut him into a permanent carving, Luffy's body is enveloped by a large burst of smoke. His body seemingly explodes like a bomb, perhaps due to the strain he was putting on his heart and vessels?
When the smoke clears, Luffy is no where to be seen. Not a bit of him remains where he had once stood, save for the blood seeping into the ground.
Yet, out of the corner of Sephiroth's eye, something stirs. Running towards the ritual is the figure of a small child, a mere one-third of Luffy's size, barring a resemblance to the strong-willed pirate. He runs at a heated pace, huffing while trying to part the distance between himself and further harm.]
