Changes and Training

Although the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare had not been destroyed, what happened today still caused a massive uproar.

For the entire island nation, its impact and shock were no less than a major earthquake!

It even spread across the world at remarkable speed, with media outlets everywhere reporting on the incident.

Before entering seclusion, Bai Xing instructed Iketani to continue keeping a close eye on Sato and the Ajin Research Management Association.

He was to record every development in detail and present it to him later.

Then Bai Xing returned to the shooting range and continued developing his techniques.

With the nutrients extracted from the planters, once he grew and consumed more Electromagnetic Fruit, Bai Xing could continuously grow stronger.

Then he could use the fruit cores to find new targets for planting.

Like a snowball rolling downhill, he could increase his strength every day just by lying around.

But doing that would only turn him into useless trash with high strength but low combat ability.

So while absorbing the nutrients provided by Sato and Nagai, Bai Xing had not given up on training himself.

Half a month later.

Inside a sealed silver-white room.

Bai Xing sat bare-chested on a metal chair, his sharply defined muscles as solid as granite exposed.

Several wires were connected to his body.

This was the Electric Chair Device used to assist with training.

It could freely adjust the voltage and current.

As electricity spread through his body, Bai Xing felt as if countless tiny ants were crawling over him.

But that was not enough!

He increased the current and voltage further. A tearing sensation emerged, as every inch of his muscles was relentlessly pulled apart.

His cells continuously grew stronger and rubbed against one another through the cycle of death and division, generating even more bioelectric current.

After a long while.

Bai Xing ended today's training, exhaled, and switched off the electric chair.

After standing up, he planned to stretch his limbs.

Whoosh!

In an almost imperceptible instant, he threw a punch!

The air, which had seemed utterly insubstantial, began to form wind-pressure resistance beneath the compression of his fist, then turned viscous.

When his fist broke through that barrier, rings of grayish-white airflow spread outward from his arm.

Then came a terrifying explosion!

Boom!!

Rapid Bullet Fist!

"Haha! With my World-Shaking Wisdom, I can easily turn my ideas into reality!"

Based on the Twelve-Form Fist, Bai Xing had continuously modified and innovated it with his "World-Shaking Wisdom," abandoning the outdated concept of imitating animals.

Instead, he had set his sights on more powerful modern weapons and created a terrifyingly destructive technique.

It had truly been born into this world!

Yet for Bai Xing, this was far from the end.

Grenades, cannons, missiles... and even Nuclear Bombs came to mind, each more powerful than the last!

"If I could imitate a nuclear explosion and create a Nuclear Explosion Fist, just how terrifying would its power be?"

But another problem arose.

To imitate a nuclear explosion, he would at least need to witness one firsthand.

"Hmm." Bai Xing rubbed his chin. Since this was this land, it probably would not be a problem to wreak havoc a little, right?

But that was still a distant consideration. What Bai Xing needed most right now was to perfect his newly created Rapid Bullet Fist.

Within the spacious silver-white room, Bai Xing freely unleashed his power.

Strangely, the violent currents he released did not damage the surroundings when they came into contact with them. Instead, they were absorbed.

That was right.

Like the Electric Chair Device, this room had also been created by Yajima Masao.

He had personally overseen the construction of this Training Room for Bai Xing!

With such an outstanding world-class scientist and his team assisting him, Bai Xing's demands naturally went far beyond simply making an Electric Chair Device.

He had also asked him to build this Training Room, one that could withstand at least 200,000 Volts of continuous bombardment for more than three hours.

The reason Yajima Masao had been able to meet Bai Xing's demands and build such a Training Room in so short a time—

Was because Bai Xing had bestowed upon him the core of the third Electromagnetic Fruit.

The unit used to measure the strength of the Current Drive realm was volts!

Bai Xing had consumed three Electromagnetic Fruits in total and, during this period, had continuously received nutrients from Sato and Nagai.

He could now wield at least 100,000 volts of power.

Although the unit for this realm was volts, because bioelectric currents were generated within every cell, the improvement process enhanced far more than just voltage.

It also improved his overall physical constitution!

His body had become so powerful that it rivaled the indestructible physique of a low-martial-arts world.

Even without using any special abilities, he could withstand gunfire with nothing but his muscles and skin.

His raw physical strength had reached at least thirty tons.

Broadly speaking, he was above wall-busting level but below building-busting level.

Based on the strength of normal C30 concrete walls—

The contact area between a fist and a wall was roughly forty square centimeters.

Calculations showed that shattering a wall required 120 kN of force.

In other words, only twelve tons of force were needed to reach wall-busting level.

And when Bai Xing used Rapid Bullet Fist, the force he could unleash in an instant was greatly amplified beyond his base strength.

Combined with the continuous explosions of electrical current at a voltage of at least 100,000 volts—

It was enough to push his strength close to building-busting level.

Yet it still could not damage this Training Room.

After stopping his training, Bai Xing looked around with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

His seclusion had come to an end.

First, under Takahashi Hitomi's service, Bai Xing enjoyed a refreshing cold shower.

Then he entered the lounge, where Iketani was already waiting.

"Has there been any progress regarding the matters I told you to watch?"

Iketani hurriedly said, "Boss, twelve days ago, Sato issued an assassination list containing several important figures from the business and political worlds. It caused enormous shock across the country and pushed the 'Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare Airliner Attack Incident' to a new peak.

"The public's sympathy, which had initially arisen after Tanaka Kouji revealed the inhuman experiments performed on Ajin, gradually turned into extreme hatred.

"It even drove many citizens to search for Ajin on their own. During this time, quite a few innocent people were killed after being mistaken for Ajin, causing a certain degree of social unrest.

"Ten days ago, a massive explosion occurred at the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare Building, with casualties reaching four figures. It has been confirmed as Sato's doing. However, it is worth noting that the minister who was Sato's true target escaped disaster once again, as he was not inside the building when the bombing occurred.

"Nine days ago, unusual activity occurred at the Ajin Research Management Association. Nagai Kei seemingly escaped the research institute again, and his whereabouts are unknown.

"Eight days ago, Sato began assassinating the remaining people on the list. There were several casualties during this period, and nearly everyone on the list failed to escape death.

"As the social unrest caused by the Ajin group centered around Sato grows increasingly severe, the voices opposing Ajin are also becoming louder.

"The entire society is racing toward the abyss of chaos. If this continues..."

Iketani did not finish his sentence, but the meaning was already obvious.

Bai Xing waved a hand. "You do not need to concern yourself with that. Just do what I instructed you to do."

"Yes!" Iketani straightened up and gave a slight bow.
