I don't care what they are, it was better when they were extinct! These things are disgusting, skittering bugs! They're scary in the bad way, and they've injured my adorable pokemon, too. They should have stayed dead or became ghosts! Cute ghosts, so I could catch another to join the one I'll have when my egg hatches!

[Ah, that's...really tempting, but also a bit troubling, too. Perona does want protection, but she also want her pokemon to grow stronger, too. If she had her devil fruit abilities, then it'd be a whole other story! She could train her pokemon and back them up when they needed it. Her Negative Hollows would take care of these things. Besides, she never needed help before her powers were taken away! It's a slap in the face to seem so weak now.]

...No. I appreciate the offer, but I can take care of myself and my cuties. If I don't, then they won't be able to grow later, and that'll just cause more trouble for me. And I don't think Mihawk would enjoy being overlooked by a stronger pokemon, either. He's so much like that old man...
