Even now, I confess I'm still pretty confused as to how it works. I mean, Pernida shoots its nerves into the target and then... what? 1- It controls their muscles and, since tost characters have superhuman strength, forces them to contract so much they shatter bones and everything 2- It pumps Reishi into their body, and that is what causes them to twist and break (this seems the most probable theory) 3- The ability does not necessarily need its nerves to activate, but this seems pretty unlikely.

On a separate note, why did Pernida's nerves suddenly become visible? Because Mayuri sprayed that liquid on them? But Pernida regenerated many times after that, and even its clones had visible nerves...
