While Perona was trying to 'DDoS' the main fighters, Nami, Robin, and Usopp found themselves in a different district of the mansion—the 'Data-Storage Facility'. The air here was colder, smelling of chemical-preservatives and 'Legacy-Hardware'. This was where the 'Identity-Files' (Stolen Shadows) were processed.

[Detection: Unregistered Active-Process.]
Amine's HUD gave a specific, pulsating warning on Nami's screen. [Alert: You have been 'Tagged' as a 'Targeted Asset' for a 'Sexual-Harassment Script' (Class: Absalom_Error).]
"What... what is this?" Nami stared at her screen, a cold dread rising in her chest. "Absalom_Error? Targeted Asset?"
A low, panting sound echoed from the darkness of the hall. "Kishishishi... my darling... your 'Model' is exquisite. You will be my queen."
Out of the mist, a massive figure with the face of a lion, stitched-together human-body parts, and the transparent shimmer of an active 'Invisibility-Codec' appeared. Absalom. But to Amine, looking through Nami's HUD, Absalom didn't look like a man; he looked like a 'Rape-Macro' (An Automated Script for Assault).
[Entity Identified: Absalom – The Invisible Beast.]
[Class: Malware-Macro (Invisible-Type).]
[Ability: Suke Suke no Mi – The 'Transparency-Codec' Fruit.]
Absalom's invisibility wasn't magic; it was a 'Perception-Filter' that 'Overwrote' Nami's vision-buffer, preventing her from 'Rendering' his presence. It was the ultimate 'Stalker's Tool'.
"He's not invisible, Nami!" Amine's voice came through the 'Communication-Channel', echoing with a desperate urgency. "He's 'Falsifying' your 'Perception-Data'! Don't trust your eyes! Your HUD can 'See' his 'Active-Process' even if your eyes can't. Look at the 'Collision-Map' I just sent you!"
Absalom lunged forward, his movement silent due to the 'Perception-Filter'. But Nami, using the HUD's 'Collision-Logic', saw a blue 'Hit-Box' approaching. She raised her Clima-Tact, but before she could act, Absalom activated his specific 'Rape-Macro'.
He tried to 'Inject' a 'Paralysis-File' into Nami's aura. [Status: Targeted Asset 'Nami' – Paralysis Attempt – [DENIED by Scholar_Firewall_v2.1].]
"No..." Absalom roared, his transparent form flickering with a corrupted blue light. "He... he protected you! The Prophet... he 'Hacked' myMacro!"
"He did more than that, Absalom!" Sanji's voice was a primal growl as he kicked through the roof, his legs already steamng with a fiery, digital violet 'System-Diable' from the Enies Lobby patch. "Amine didn't just 'Patch' the firewall... he gave me 'User-Admin Rights' to your face!"
Sanji lunged forward, his feet a blur of violet flame and 'Frame-Rate Battle' speed. He didn't just kick Absalom; he began a 'System-Format' of the Malicious Macro. Every strike caused a massive 'Pixel-Burst' of Absalom's transparent form, forcing him to 'Render' in excruciating pain.
Amine, watching from his location, opened his system screen one last time. He wasn't looking at Absalom or Perona. He was looking at the 'Global-Map' of Thriller Bark. The 'Admin Moria' was just a few hundred feet away, sitting in his 'Recycle Bin' on a throne of stolen dreams.
The battle for the 'Mainframe' was finally here.
