Remaining in the stadium:
Roy, Bullet, Hawk Eyes, Tesoro, Crocodile, Kuma, Kaido, King, Queen, Yamato (barely holding on).
"50 times!" Roy's voice echoed in the Gravity Domain.
Boom--!!!
This time, even the alloy walls at the edge of the field groaned under the strain.
50 times the force of gravity!
Yamato a muffled groan, finally unable to hold on any longer, and knelt on one knee. Genzo inserted himself into the ground to support his body.
"I... can't go on..." she gasped for breath, her eyes filled with resentment.
" Yamato, step back," Roy commanded.
Yamato struggled to climb to the edge, where the gravity was adjusted to 40 times.
She immediately felt much more relaxed, but the pressure remained immense.
Nine people remain in the arena.
Tesoro's entire body crackled with golden arcs of electricity, stimulating every cell with lightning to forcefully maintain his movement.
Crocodile's body has begun to partially turn into sand in an attempt to reduce the burden of its weight.
The dark golden flames surrounding Jin fluctuated violently, seemingly resisting gravity.
Even Xiong, this special member of the Buccaneer Tribe, was sweating.
Queen's cyborg body emitted an overloaded hum.
Hawk Eyes stood as straight as a pine tree, holding Black Blade Yoru, but the ground beneath his feet had already caved in.
Bullet and Kaido were the most outrageous – not only were they standing ramrod straight, but they were even sparring with each other!
"Hehehe! 50 times gravity! That's more like it!" Kaido laughed wildly and punched Bullet.
Bullet neither dodged nor evaded, and met the punch head-on.
Bang!
The fists clashed, creating a surge of air, but the movements were noticeably slower than normal, yet the power transfer was more solid.
"Again!"
"You think I'm afraid of you?!"
The two battle maniacs engaged in a clumsy yet powerful hand-to-hand combat under 50 times gravity, each punch shaking the ground.
Roy watched this scene with a sense of satisfaction.
The fact that they could maintain this level of combat strength under 50 times gravity demonstrates that Bullet and Kaido's physical abilities have reached a terrifying level.
As for himself...
Roy was sensing his body's condition.
He remained completely at ease even under 50 times the force of gravity.
The enhancement brought about by optimizing his bloodline is comprehensive, and with the auxiliary regulation of the Telekinesis-Telekinesis Fruit, he feels that he can withstand even greater things.
"Then... 60 times!"
Buzz--!!!
Gravity spikes again!
This time, even Tesoro and Crocodile's expressions changed drastically.
The arcs of electricity around Tesoro began to flicker erratically, and his body trembled slightly.
The sandy parts of Crocodile began to collapse uncontrollably.
"60 times... that's my limit," Tesoro said through gritted teeth.
"Me too." Crocodile's face darkened, but he had to admit it.
"Me too!" Xiong chimed in.
"Step back." Roy nodded.
The three retreated to the edge, where the gravity was adjusted to 50 times. The pressure was still immense, but much better than 60 times.
Remaining characters on the field: Roy, Hawk Eyes, King, Queen, Bullet, Kaido.
Queen's mechanical body was emitting a piercing alarm, and sparks were beginning to fly from some of its joints.
"60 times... the mechanical structure is nearing its limit..." Queen's face was grim. "I'm retreating!"
The dark golden flames surrounding Jin had compressed to a thin layer on his body. He remained silent for a moment before speaking.
"60 times the strength, barely able to stand, but unable to train. I'm retiring."
The two men withdrew.
The remaining four on the field are: Roy, Hawk Eyes, Bullet, and Kaido.
Hawk Eyes held Black Blade Yoru, fine beads of sweat appearing on his forehead, but his eyes remained sharp.
"60 times the force of gravity allows you to swing a sword, but not at full power. Suitable for honing basic swordsmanship."
"I can train here."
Bullet and Kaido continued their exchange of blows, their movements becoming slower but each strike more concentrated and powerful.
"70 times!" Roy increased the number again, wanting to see the limits of these two.
boom!!!
The moment the force of 70 times gravity descended, Bullet and Kaido froze in their tracks!
Their fists were locked in mid-air, their muscles trembling violently, and their veins bulging like earthworms.
The ground beneath their feet suddenly exploded, and the two of them sank half a meter underground!
"Ugh... Gah..." Kaido gritted his teeth, trying to push his fist forward, but his arm trembled violently.
Bullet also had a ferocious expression, with all his muscles bulging to their limit.
Three seconds later--
Bang!
Both of them collapsed under the weight of gravity, kneeling on one knee and gasping for breath.
"70 times... that's the limit of the battle..." Bullet said, panting heavily.
"I can barely fight, but... it's too strenuous..." Kaido also panted.
"Alright, then your training gravity will be set at 60 times, with occasional attempts at 70 times to push the limits," Roy decided.
He looked at Hawk Eyes: " Mihawk, what about you?"
"60 times, suitable for honing basic swordsmanship. 70 times, only able to stand, unable to wield a sword," Hawk Eyes replied calmly.
"Then 60 times."
Finally, Roy also chose to start exercising under 60 times the normal gravity.
The enhancements from optimized bloodlines, combined with the subtle adjustments to gravity provided by the Telekinesis-Telekinesis Fruit, all contribute to this improvement.
This allows him to withstand pressure far exceeding that of ordinary people.
Buzz--
Gravity returned to normal, and everyone immediately felt a lightness in their bodies, as if they were about to float away.
"This is the limit of how well each person can adapt to gravity."
Roy concluded,
"For the next three months, we will undergo brutal training in this arena."
Each person trains under their own extreme gravity, unlocking their bloodline potential.
He looked at everyone, his gaze resolute.
"Three months from now, we'll take our strength to the next level!"
"Yes!" the crowd responded in unison, their eyes burning with fighting spirit.
Three months flew by in the midst of relentless, day-to-day training.
Inside the gravity test arena, every day is filled with sweat, panting, and the clanging of metal.
Under the immense pressure of gravity, the powerful Roy Pirates and the Beasts Pirates undergo grueling training.
Both Bullet and Kaido, these two battle maniacs, truly embody the idea that "fighting is the best training."
The two sparred for at least eight hours a day under 60 times the force of gravity, each punch landing hard and showing no mercy.
At first, they needed to control their strength to avoid serious injury.
However, as time went on, the two discovered that the restorative power gained from optimizing their bloodline was extremely astonishing.
Ordinary skin injuries can stop bleeding and scab over in a few minutes, but serious injuries like fractures...
With proper medical care, you can recover completely in one or two days.
As a result, the battle intensified.
"White Tiger - Overlord Fist!"
" Thunder Bagua!"
boom--!!!
The full-force collision under 60 times gravity caused shockwaves that even shook the alloy walls of the entire testing ground.
After three months, both Bullet and Kaido clearly felt that their control over their power had become more precise.
Their explosive power is greater, and their endurance has reached an unbelievable level.
Even after ten hours of continuous high-intensity combat, they can still maintain 80% of their combat effectiveness.
Hawk Eyes, on the other hand, honed his swordsmanship fundamentals under 60 times gravity.
Every strike strives for perfection: speed, angle, power, timing... Under the pressure of gravity, any slight flaw will be magnified.
Three months later, his sword became more concise, efficient, and deadly.
"How fast would a sword that can be perfectly swung under 60 times gravity be under normal gravity?"
Hawk Eyes occasionally ponders this question, but he's in no hurry to verify it—the stronger the foundation, the higher the potential for the future.
