After waiting quietly outside the door for about half an hour, Sig and Dragon suddenly heard the cabin door open behind them.
Ivankov erged, his large face showing a trace of exhaustion.
"Sig-boy, it should be done. Take a look and see if the results are satisfactory…"
Ivankov let out a long sigh of relief.
The use of male and female hormones wouldn't cause any real harm to the human body, so there was no need to worry about damaging Stussy's health. Ivankov himself often switched back and forth between male and female forms, and his body remained unaffected. However, this was the first ti he had used his abilities so frequently in such a short span, leaving him a bit drained.
Sig nodded slightly and stepped into the room.
After so thought, he had devised the next step of his plan for dealing with Stussy.
Inside the room, Stussy was still seated in the chair, but her figure had clearly shrunk noticeably. Her arms and legs were even slightly thinner than they had been in her female form.
Her golden hair still gave off an illusion of shimring brilliance under the sunlight. Her face was pure and delicate, exuding an officer-like grace and beauty. She now resembled a ticulously crafted work of art.
At this mont, Stussy stared blankly at the full-length mirror in front of her, gazing at her reflection. Her light blue eyes, once radiant, were now devoid of any spark.
"This… isn't this pretty good too?"
"At least I don't have to be tornted any further."
Stussy's face flushed slightly as she tried to accept her new form.
As a mber of CP0, the world's top intelligence organization, she had undergone rigorous training, and her ntal fortitude was supposed to be unshakable.
But this bizarre series of actions from Ivankov and Sig had directly shattered her psychological defenses.
Still, it didn't matter… As long as she could embrace her current appearance, this kind of threat would no longer be effective.
Thoughts swirled in Stussy's mind.
For a top-tier intelligence agent like her, such thods were rely unconventional.
As long as she could accept her new self and maintain a calm mindset, Sig and the Revolutionary Army's thods would no longer hold any power over her.
Yes… As long as she embraced this setting, there was nothing to fear!
A person's mind is like a mirror; once shattered, it's almost impossible to piece it back together.
But as a mber of CP0, Stussy's psychological defenses were far more resilient than those of ordinary people.
Even after being broken, even after her state of mind had been utterly fragnted, she was now already working on a solution—trying to embrace her new self and rebuild her ntal defenses.
A mont later, the sound of the cabin door opening caught her attention.
Turning her head, Stussy saw Sig entering the room. A faint light flickered in her eyes again.
If she could gain Sig's approval, perhaps this unforgettable day in her life could truly co to an end.
Thinking this, Stussy forced a faint, ingratiating smile, suppressing her inner turmoil while attempting to showcase the beauty of her new form.
"Not bad."
Sig's indifferent remark caused a rare surge of joy within Stussy.
But shortly after, she heard Sig's next words.
"However, I suddenly feel that your female form suits my eyes better."
"Ivankov, sorry to trouble you again."
Sig spoke.
"What?!!"
Stussy's eyes widened in shock as she stared at Sig in disbelief.
Though Ivankov was also taken aback, he didn't hesitate. His nails once again pierced Stussy's body.
A few seconds later, the stunning blonde beauty returned.
Everything seed to have reverted to the way it was at the very beginning.
However, the golden-haired beauty's eyes now bore an inexplicable complexity.
She had just begun trying to accept her new body, but now… it was changed back?
In that instant, her heart was filled with a whirlwind of mixed emotions.
Stussy had painstakingly convinced herself to embrace her new form, only to have it reversed…
At this mont, even Stussy herself couldn't discern the precise nature of her emotions.
A. Overjoyed
B. Relieved
C. Secretly grateful
D. Indifferent
E. Deeply disappointed
Yes, this was a multiple-choice question.
Hearing Sig's words, Dragon, who had been silently observing from the side, couldn't help but ask:
"Mr. Sig, isn't this exactly the sa as it was at the beginning? Hasn't nothing changed?"
Dragon couldn't resist voicing his doubt.
"Nothing changed? You're mistaken."
Sig had already prepared his response to Dragon's skepticism.
"The outco isn't what matters—the process is."
At this mont, Sig seed to transform into a sage carrying a large pot of chicken soup for the soul, explaining:
"Miss Stussy has just experienced an unforgettable day in her life. This journey will beco an invaluable treasure for her, permanently healing her heart."
These words triggered mories in Stussy's mind, causing her to recall the events just monts ago. Her eyes gradually beca vacant, as if she were a salted fish that had lost its dreams.
Watching this scene, Sig fell into contemplation.
He had always been pondering how to deal with such a troubleso individual.
From the start, Sig had maintained a high level of vigilance toward soone like Stussy, a consummate actress.
At first, Stussy seed extrely cooperative, actively providing intelligence and information.
But Sig didn't have the luxury to discern whether her words were true or false.
If Stussy were truly that easy to deal with, the Revolutionary Army wouldn't have thought of gifting her as a present.
Having Stussy repeatedly undergo gender transformations wasn't due to so peculiar fetish of Sig's. Rather, it was his attempt to break down the psychological defenses of this captive.
A captive who had endured 10,000 points of ntal damage was vastly different from a spirited and cunning actress.
Only at this point could Sig begin implenting the next phase of his plan.
With a thought, a light screen appeared before him, and the possession cards he had acquired floated into view.
Possession Card: Wang Mouze
Ability: Iron-Bone Integrity
When the target individual makes a promise in a negative form (e.g., "I won't do this"), if the ability passes its validation check, the Iron-Bone Integrity effect is triggered. After so ti, the target will violate their promise on their own.
While Iron-Bone Integrity appears to be a strong ability, it cos with a significant limitation:
It requires passing the so-called validation check in order to take effect. This is not an infallible ability that guarantees success 100% of the ti.
If it worked unconditionally, the card wouldn't rely be classified as an A-rank card—it would instead rank as SSSSS-level.
For example, if such a scenario existed, Sig could gleefully march into the New World and say to Whitebeard, "Co and be my son!" From then on, Sig would ride the wave of ultimate success and transition into an invincible protagonist trope. But, of course, such absurd scenarios are impossible.
This card functions more like boiling a frog in warm water—gradually breaking down and reversing the target's resistance and ultimately making them genuinely proclaim "how wonderful!" from the bottom of their heart. It is not a card that can forcibly twist the target's will in one fell swoop.
Administering moderate psychological blows is simply a thod to increase the success rate of the validation check.
