Leaf would easily be able to realize Pluto Gas' effects and just use an afterimage to distract Abliter, use Leaf Shoot to cover him and get in close for a Soul Slash to heal any damage he might have taken, and go for a dura neg combo to finish.
Abliter has dealt with afterimages before, this is not so simply done, especially since Abliter is going to spend the entire time focused on just running away while blasting bombs/lasers to buy time for the sleep effect. Plus every moment passing, Pluto gas gets closer to its full effect so Leaf Man would be getting very tired very quickly, slowing him down
He could easily dodge with repeated explosive hops, and his passive speed increase would negate that. What's stopping him from dodging and getting up close for a combo attack?
Do you know how large the explosions are? They take up both massive distance and height, being able to part the skies too. Again, it isn’t so simple. Speed amps might negate slowness but being tired will remain all the same
