Isn't Having Legs Enough?
"Hehehehe."
A burst of cheerful laughter echoed in the study, which was over 300 square meters in size.
Imu was using the 'Star Fate's' monitoring function over the Sea Star to watch over Garp, Shiki, Kaido, and the other sixteen Admiral and colonels.
All of them, their muscular chests drenched in sweat, were running laps around the stadium with difficulty in the dim purple light.
Borsalino's eyes were starting to glaze over.
His body became unsteady, and his movements were less like running and more like shuffling forward.
Fortunately, he was also a powerful cultivator who had developed an aura of Haki, and his willpower was quite strong.
Obviously.
Under the condition that any extraordinary abilities, including Haki, are prohibited.
Ten times the gravity is a very heavy and extreme environment for these 'top combatants' as well.
You need to know.
When a Saiyan first found himself on a planet with ten times the gravity, he couldn't even walk normally.
They couldn't even catch a single ordinary Monkey, and soon they collapsed from exhaustion on the ground.
Gravity training and weight training may seem similar, but they are not the same thing.
The former exerts a comprehensive influence on the body's internal and external systems, including the brain, internal organs, blood, bones, heart, and even the surrounding air, through the gravitational field.
The latter, at most, involves weightlifting or wearing some heavy equipment.
In terms of training efficiency, the two are simply incomparable.
As for whether gravity training is scientific or reasonable, it is scientific and reasonable in this world, and it has also been recognized by Vegapunk.
However, the person who came up with the idea of using Issho's Press-Press Fruit to create a 'gravity field device'.
Of course, it's the 'well-informed' Imu.
When Yixiao volunteered to challenge the 'Paramount War', he had already considered the value of the opponent's abilities in Physical Arts training.
His idea at the time was to have Yixiao find a place near the Three Armies Headquarters to conduct an Awakening, so that the officers and soldiers of the Three Armies could go there at any time to enjoy gravity training.
However, Vegapunk found the plan he sent to him to be too crude.
First.
The Press-Press Fruit is Paramecia, not Logia.
It does not possess the ability to have a permanent and lasting effect like the latter's Awakening.
It still depends on the individual's own conscious awareness (excluding normal sleep).
What if something unexpected happens to Yixiao in the future?
That will be before a new user of the Gravity Devil Fruit Awakening.
Wouldn't that mean we'd no longer be able to have the 'Gravity Training Field'?
Secondly.
Regardless of whether it can exist permanently, it presents a very serious problem.
The inability to manually control its opening and closing, or adjust the gravity at any time, makes it extremely dangerous if someone inside becomes exhausted.
This is extremely detrimental to the widespread adoption of combat power across all levels, and over time it will inevitably become the exclusive domain of mid- to high-level combat power.
And these problems.
Vegapunk could easily improve the 'gravity field' using technology, making it a useful and relatively safe training facility.
This refers to the 'Adjustable Gravity Training Field Generator System' currently installed inside the venue.
A gravity field is created by four searchlights that project gravity rays, and the range, multiplier, and on/off state of the gravity field can be adjusted using a special remote control.
In this way...
Even lower-ranking soldiers will be able to use it in the future.
It's likely that before long, training routines like doing 2000 push-ups, running 200 laps, and climbing ropes 100 times will completely disappear.
This then turned into physical training or sparring in various 'gravity chambers'.
Besides.
It can not only be mass-produced, but also used in any place at any time, such as inside a warship or in other worlds.
This level of convenience completely surpasses the method of allowing Yixiao to Awakening in a fixed area.
In response to this...
Imu wasn't particularly annoyed.
After all, he's not a professional researcher, so it's definitely a good thing that Vegapunk can refine his ideas.
Moreover, this allowed him to experience the feeling of 'gravity training' on the Ark.
This is a training method highly favored by 'two Saiyan ', Imu has long wanted to try it out.
It is said that in a super-gravity environment, the human body's potential can be squeezed out to the maximum extent.
On the other side.
An assessment area specifically prepared for officers below the rank of general.
By this time, the area was already filled with men and women dressed in tricolored Coat of Justice, varying greatly in size and race, but all exuding a powerful aura.
And in the center of the venue.
The fifty different models of black treadmills that Borsalino and the others had seen earlier were now running.
Each one has a soldier with the lowest rank of Major running at full speed. In addition to humans, you can also see Fish-Man Race, Mink Tribe, Longleg Tribe, and Snake-Neck Tribe.
According to the assessment requirements.
For Commodore below the rank of brigadier general, they must run 100 kilometers in one hour to pass, while for Commodore and above, they must run 300 kilometers in one hour to pass.
If you want to continue running after that, you will be given another hour.
How many kilometers they can run in this extra hour will directly affect their final results.
This tests their speed and stamina.
After the run, they can rest for a maximum of ten minutes before they have to undergo a practical assessment.
First, Teuchi of the same rank. If you win, you pass; if you lose, you can fight another match. If you lose again, you fail and may face demotion.
The winner will be given a day to rest, and then can choose whether to challenge someone of a higher rank. If they win, their rank will be upgraded, and they can continue to challenge their way up to the rank of general.
Generally speaking, if there is no war.
Therefore, this "military combat capability assessment" held every three years is the main channel for most people to be promoted in military rank.
Certainly.
Even in the event of war, it is still a precious opportunity, as this kind of assessment is much safer than killing enemies and making merits on the battlefield.
What many people didn't expect was...
I thought this would be the easiest assessment item to complete.
Surprisingly, a large number of people failed to run 100 kilometers in an hour.
What's going on?
Such a simple thing, isn't it something that can be done with legs?
This caused the instructors from the Military Affairs Department, who were responsible for proctoring and scoring, to shout out the words "fail" with surprise every time.
Among them are Chinjao, Zeff, Jinbe, and Gyomei Himejima.
"It seems that the decades of comfort have led to a group of unambitious individuals in the military. This major assessment has effectively weeded them out."
Chinjao coldly watched the officers and soldiers from the Three Armies, panting heavily Earth Flow the treadmills. "What kind of soldiers can't even guarantee basic physical fitness?"
"Really."
Zeff, Jinbe nodded in agreement, but Gyomei Himejima and the others had rather complicated expressions in their eyes.
Although his current physical condition has been enhanced by the 'Cell Enhancement Serum'.
It can also easily complete a 100-kilometer run in an hour.
However, they were still mentally shocked by the Sea Star Person's terrifying physique.
Even those officers who failed...
Even in the Demon Slayer World, they would be considered Superman.
Give them a Nichirin Blade and they can roam the mountains and fields killing demons.
"Look!"
"That person is clearly only a colonel, yet he met the requirements for a general-level assessment, and he's still running!"
"The speed is so fast! It seems like it only took 30 minutes to run 100 kilometers, and in 50 minutes it had already run more than 300 kilometers."
Chinjao, Jinbe, and the others followed the sound of the discussion.
They discovered it was a young man with large white wings on his back and a white headscarf on his head.
"He seems to be from Skypieans."
'Red Leg' Zeff flipped through a few pages of the list in his hand.
"He's Enel from the Air Force Headquarters, hmm. And he's a Logia Rumble-Rumble Devil Fruit User?"
