Chapter 272

Fujitora made a decision.

He then activated the power of the Gravity Fruit.

Centered on him, double gravity was applied within a hundred-meter radius.

In this Gravity Environment, any ordinary person stepping in would move as if trapped in a swamp, their actions becoming extremely sluggish.

Those with weaker constitutions would even be pinned to the ground, unable to crawl up.

Fujitora was confident that

even Zoan-type users would feel uncomfortable in the Gravity Environment he created.

However,

a scene that shocked and terrified him occurred.

Not a single soldier of the Gifters Corps was affected.

Their speeds had not slowed down at all.

Some even mocked:

"Yo, is this gravity? Heh heh! It's way too light; it's more like scratching an itch for me!"

Fujitora was utterly bewildered.

This... how is this possible!

How could his gravity have absolutely no effect on this group?

This simply defies all logic!

232. Fujitora's Shock: Such a Heaven-Defying Thing as a Gravity Training Room Actually Exists in This World!

Fujitora was truly confused.

He had never encountered this situation before...

No, he actually had encountered it once.

That was a few days ago, during his battle with Vergo.

The opponent was unaffected by his Horizontal Gravity, his speed remaining extremely fast.

Fujitora, caught off guard, was scratched by Vergo.

But Vergo possessed Admiral-level strength, and the Vampire Fruit he ate was a powerful Mythical Zoan type.

His ability to withstand gravity was therefore not something incredible.

But what about these soldiers of the Gifters Corps right before his eyes?

Their strength was vastly inferior to Vergo's.

Even if they were all Zoan-type users, they were merely artificial Devil Fruits,

and in effect, they were actually inferior to naturally born Devil Fruits, let alone Mythical Zoans.

The difference between the two was ten thousand li.

In short,

Fujitora could not understand.

Why were these people unafraid of his gravity?

"Could it be that the gravity I added was too low?"

Fujitora thought silently to himself.

He had currently added double gravity, which for ordinary people was heavy enough to be like a mountain.

"Then let's try Triple Gravity!"

Fujitora became ruthless.

The momentum around him suddenly doubled.

The Gravity Environment within the hundred-meter radius also suddenly increased drastically.

Crack~~

Even the ground could not withstand it, being pressed down and indented slightly.

A hint of satisfaction appeared on Fujitora's face.

Triple Gravity; this could already be called terrifying.

Even a top-tier expert would be in a sorry state if suddenly hit by such a thing.

He did not believe

that these beasts, whose strength fell far short of Reaching the Top Layer, could remain unaffected.

But.

Fujitora's heart was shaken violently once again.

What he sensed was

not the Beasts Pirates members pinned to the ground and unable to move, but beasts whose momentum remained ferocious and speed remained fast, as if largely unaffected!

This is impossible!

How could this be?!

Fujitora's face was filled with disbelief.

Meanwhile, the raucous laughter of the Gifter members reached his ears:

"Hey, blind old man, do you have no strength left? Is this the limit of how much gravity you can add?"

"Hahaha, it's simply too easy!"

Fujitora, a monster acknowledged by both Sengoku and Akainu, was actually being mocked by a bunch of small fry.

Fujitora felt somewhat angry.

But more than anything, there was incomprehension and confusion.

Just why,

were these fellows from the Hundred Beasts Crew unaffected by his gravity?

Fujitora could no longer hold back and asked the question aloud:

"Why are you all unaffected by my old self's gravity?"

What answered him was even louder laughter.

An Awakener mocked loudly:

"Old man, find it strange? What a lack of worldliness!"

"Because, we've all trained inside the gravity training room that the Young Lord invented!"

Fujitora's whole body shook violently.

A gravity training room?

A device invented by the Fifth Emperor Luo Xing?

What was that? How had he never heard of it?

That Awakener continued to mock:

"Looks like you don't even know what a gravity training room is. Fine, consider it my pity for you—let me tell you!"

"A gravity training room is a room equipped with multiple times the gravity!"

"The gravity within is permanent, and the most basic gravity room has the same intensity as what you're pressing on us right now—three times!"

"Above three times, there are even higher-grade gravity rooms at five times and ten times!"

"Understand now, old man!!"

Fujitora listened, dumbstruck.

It was like hearing the words of a heavenly scripture.

A training room with permanent gravity, capable of reaching up to ten times the gravity!

Fifth Emperor Luo Xing could actually invent a heaven-defying device of this caliber!!

As a user of the Gravity-Gravity Fruit, Fujitora knew all too well what ten times gravity meant.

Let alone ordinary people—even top-tier powerhouses would struggle to take a single step under ten times gravity.

And though Fujitora's Devil Fruit Already awakened, he too could imbue objects with gravity.

But if it were permanent, and at the intensity of ten times gravity, Fujitora would find it extremely taxing, and the stamina consumed would be on an ocean-like scale.

Yet Fifth Emperor Luo Xing could easily manufacture a permanent ten-times gravity room,

and it even seemed he could produce them in large quantities.

How could Fujitora not feel utterly shocked?
