I don't think Mercury got his knee broken tbh. I never broke a bone, but I'm fairly certain if someone shotgun blasted your knee's side from point blank without 0 protection, causing them to break, you wouldn't be like "Ah! My leg!" You'd be like "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA YOU FUCK" ( assuming you didn't pass out )

Also I'm not sure if Mercury deliberately put her down to 16 aura, just a point above "death", since they know her semblance is basically an enrage effect (And Mercury had to lose for the plan to be successful), and the expression he has when yang "explodes" is kinda like "Ugh. Lets get this over with." ( and he didnt go over to yang to be sure he won. Even after that rain of death, if he REALLY wanted to win, he would've. )

P.S.: As much of a psycho Mercury seems to be, I felt so sad when he asked why she attacked him. That VA is really good.
