Konoha, Forest of Death.
The Forest of Death had now become a massive crater.
"Time to train!!"
Ato stretched his body. After resting for so long, it was time to continue training.
The reason Ato had not trained before was because his physical strength could no longer improve.
No matter how he trained, his battle power would not continue increasing.
But things were different now. After obtaining the Chakra Extraction Technique, Ato possessed life energy known as chakra within his body.
While training, the life energy would subtly nourish his cells, gradually making them stronger.
This would allow his body to break past its limits through training and enter an entirely new realm.
Although training did not increase battle power as much as combat did,
its advantage lay in perseverance.
As long as he kept at it, Ato's battle power would steadily rise.
As long as he could break through his body's limits, continued training would send his battle power into a period of rapid growth.
Therefore, he absolutely could not stop training.
Ato slowly descended into the crater, then took a Sealing Scroll from his battle suit.
Kushina had given him this Sealing Scroll while teaching him the Chakra Extraction Technique.
Sealed inside the scroll was Ato's spaceship.
Ato unrolled the Sealing Scroll, looked at the word "spaceship" in its center, then slapped a hand directly onto it.
This most basic Object Sealing Scroll did not require hand seals. One only needed to inject chakra to retrieve the item within.
"Sealing Release."
Poof.
A cloud of white smoke rose, and the Small Spaceship appeared before Ato.
Looking at the spaceship crackling with electricity and billowing black smoke, Ato curled his lip and walked straight inside.
He casually tapped the Spaceship Console a few times.
A holographic projection immediately appeared before him.
"Lord Ato, I am Kuros, your spaceship repairman. Please give your orders."
Kuros, with his toad-like head, appeared before Ato and spoke respectfully.
"Kuros, repair my spaceship," Ato casually ordered.
"As you command, Lord Ato!"
Yet that casual command made Kuros react as though he had been injected with stimulants, answering excitedly.
Ato ignored Kuros and casually shut off the holographic projection.
The next second, Ato's spaceship began emitting a green glow.
The heavily damaged spaceship seemed to come alive as it began repairing itself.
Ato was not surprised by this.
This was the unique talent of the Carlians.
Every Carlian Mechanical Repairman possessed the ability to heal machinery.
By releasing their own energy, they could repair one or several mechanical creations.
Moreover, this repair was not limited by distance.
As long as their unique energy was entered into a machine's programming, they could repair that machine regardless of distance.
It was an incredibly wondrous talent.
This talent had made the Carlians master mechanical repairmen on countless planets.
But this talent also had an absolute flaw.
They could only repair machinery.
It was ineffective on life itself.
Moreover, the Carlians had extremely low battle power.
Thus, despite possessing such an amazing talent, the Carlians were still a Lower Cosmic Race.
Ignoring the green light constantly spilling from the spaceship, Ato picked up some Disassembly Tools inside and began dismantling his spaceship.
During his four years on Planet Vegeta, Ato had mastered most Tuffle Technology.
Dismantling a spaceship was effortless for him.
In just half an hour, Ato had removed the Life Cell Fusion Device he had previously installed.
He had only temporarily installed it on the spaceship before takeoff.
Now that he had decided to collect valuable Kekkei Genkai from the Ninja World, Ato simply removed it from the spaceship.
Looking at the Life Cell Fusion Device, which stood as tall as a person, Ato casually opened a Sealing Scroll.
"Seal!"
Ato pressed one hand against the Life Cell Fusion Device and the other against the Sealing Scroll.
The Life Cell Fusion Device instantly turned into a cloud of white smoke and was sealed inside the Sealing Scroll.
After finishing all this, Ato took two exquisite Bracelets from the spaceship.
After putting the Bracelets on both hands, Ato lightly tapped them.
Beep, beep.
The two Bracelets immediately lit up with a faint red glow.
Gravity Rings activated. Please set the gravity multiplier.
Android 18's voice rang beside Ato's ear.
At the same time, the Scouter displayed prompts for gravity settings from 1 to 50 times.
The Gravity Bracelets were also Tuffle Technology.
These two Gravity Bracelets could generate up to fifty times gravity.
Ato had made them while building the 100x Gravity Chamber.
Originally, they were meant to help Ato continue his daily gravity training after leaving the Gravity Chamber.
But now, these two Gravity Bracelets would replace Planet Vegeta's 100x Gravity Chamber and become Ato's primary training aid in the Ninja World.
"Twenty times gravity."
Ato casually selected twenty times gravity.
A red light flashed from the Gravity Bracelets, and a twentyfold gravity field swiftly enveloped Ato.
Boom!
The ground beneath Ato's feet rapidly collapsed and shattered.
His body also felt that long-forgotten heaviness.
However, he had already adapted to twenty times gravity back on Planet Vegeta.
Therefore, he felt no discomfort.
Ato moved his body, then quickly performed several basic exercises: one-finger push-ups, handstands, sit-ups, and more.
Under twenty times gravity, Ato felt no pressure at all.
Every movement was extremely easy.
"Ha!"
Ato fired a white Energy Blast with one hand. His body then instantly vanished from where he stood and appeared ahead of the white Energy Blast, while his right hand swung out another Energy Wave.
Boom.
The two Energy Blasts rapidly collided, then turned into a flash of white light and vanished.
"Keep going."
Ato immediately used Prince's Technique.
His body then moved at incredible speed, constantly appearing before one Energy Blast after another and canceling them out with Energy Blasts of equal power.
As explosions rang out one after another, shallow craters appeared all around Ato.
"Whew, no pressure at all!" Ato wiped away sweat that did not exist on his face, then directly raised the gravity to thirty times.
Boom.
A terrifying force of gravity instantly crushed Ato flat against the ground.
The earth collapsed into a human-shaped crater.
The immense gravity sent signals of unbearable strain through every cell in Ato's body.
Under thirty times gravity, Ato could not even breathe, let alone train.
His bones also gave off brittle cracking sounds beneath gravity's crushing force.
"Android 18." Ato spoke with difficulty. Just those two words left him drenched in sweat.
At Ato's reminder, Android 18 quickly adjusted the gravity to twenty-five times.
The Gravity Bracelets emitted a red flash. The gravity on Ato was still heavy, but he could finally move with difficulty.
"Even with a battle power of 1,000, I still can't withstand thirty times gravity?" Ato wiped the sweat from his forehead, clenched his fists, and gritted his teeth as he stood up.
After moving around for a short while, Ato barely adapted to twenty-five times gravity.
"So how did Son Goku survive under one hundred times gravity?" Ato struggled through his training while silently mocking the future Son Goku.
Son Goku had adapted to one hundred times gravity in an extremely short time. That could no longer be described as mere talent.
That was outright cheating!
When it came to cheating, even Ato, a transmigrator, had no choice but to concede defeat.
Thinking about the future Dragon Ball storyline, Ato began basic physical training under twenty-five times gravity.
He started with simple walking.
Then he gradually increased the difficulty.
Two-handed push-ups, sit-ups, frog jumps.
Ato once again began his day-after-day regimen of frenzied training.
