[Oh, John...you're really too cute sometimes, and you're almost making Perona feel a little sorry for keeping secrets from you. Almost. But secrecy is what's kept her alive - not revealing the full extent of her powers is the best tactic of any ability user. What kind of fighter would she be if people knew everything she could do? That ruins the mystery, and she'd have to think up better schemes and ideas!

But she should at least put his mind at ease somewhat. With a sigh, Perona leans her head into one hand.]

It's fine...don't feel bad. Not many ability users reveal their powers to others. It's a stupid move to make on the seas of the Grand Line - but really, there isn't much to think about. My hollows make people negative, and that's that.
