Inside the gravity chamber.
Both had bloodshot eyes and contorted faces, clearly under severe physical strain.
However, neither of them showed any sign of adjusting or stopping the gravity. They tacitly chose to endure, pushing their limits of endurance.
One minute, three minutes…
Half an hour!
"How can he still hold on!"
Peacock's breathing became more and more difficult. Sweat trickled down her cheeks, flowing along her neck and deep into her chest.
She couldn't breathe!
Breathless!
She could clearly hear the violent beating of her heart, accelerating blood circulation to prevent insufficient blood supply to her upper body under the influence of gravity.
Even so, her brain was still dizzy.
She was about to give up…
"Haha… ha… so easy!"
The man's hurried voice came from beside her.
Peacock struggled to turn her head and saw Black Hair grinned, though he was clearly in no better condition than she was, but he was still putting on a brave face.
Damn it, she couldn't lose to him!
Their faces became more and more ferocious. It was extremely difficult to even straighten their backs, let alone concentrate on training Life Return.
Outside the gravity chamber, Lu Yun's smile grew brighter, as if she had found a new toy and couldn't help but want to play with it wantonly.
"Not at their limit yet, let's add some more!"
"Click!"
Four times gravity!
The two who had been able to persevere were instantly pinned to the ground, sticking their butts up in the air, their upper bodies pressed tightly against the floor.
They couldn't get up!
"Eh!"
Roya's eyes were fixed on Peacock.
Although the posture was a bit awkward, because of the physiological differences between men and women, his burden was definitely much lighter than Peacock's.
Good job, Lu Yun!
"Hehehehe～～"
A smug smile bloomed uncontrollably.
"Damn it!"
Peacock sensed something was wrong. Lu Yun had complained about this kind of terrible situation before, but she never thought she would experience it herself one day.
Pain!
No, she really couldn't hold on this time.
"Click!"
The pressure on her body suddenly lightened!
She was saved!
Without a word, Peacock stormed out, face cold with embarrassment, glaring at Lu Yun standing at the door, annoyed. That brat was definitely making her look bad on purpose.
Too embarrassed to speak, Peacock left quickly.
Lu Yun approached Roya, her hands in her pockets.
"How are you feeling, Roya Senior?"
"Not bad!"
Roya felt very refreshed.
Although his body was quite tired, he felt very happy.
"That's good."
Lu Yun revealed her true intentions, smiling and asking, "Roya, can you do me a favor?"
"What is it?"
"I want to check your body!"
"…"
Isn't that supposed to be his line?
"Sure."
Roya nodded in agreement.
Regular body checkups are a good habit. He also wanted to know his physical condition, such as whether his liver function was normal, whether he was deficient in trace elements, and so on.
It was rare to have advanced testing equipment. There were no such good conditions in East Blue, and the people there didn't have this awareness.
He actually trusted science very much.
Drawing blood, plucking hair…
Soon, Roya regretted it.
The body checkup he imagined was just a health checkup with a blood draw, but who would have thought that Lu Yun would treat him like a test subject, leaving no part of him untouched from head to toe.
Watching Lu Yun put on a white coat, raise her hand with a latex glove with a serious face, and say something extremely terrifying, Roya's face turned quite green. "Senior, if you're shy, I can help you manually."
"Thank you, I'll do it myself!"
Roya subconsciously tightened his legs.
Researchers are so scary!
The entire three-hour-long checkup finally ended. It was more tiring than fighting a big battle.
"Hehe."
Roya collapsed on the sofa, his eyes lifeless.
The wind is so rowdy today～～
Soon, Lu Yun returned with a stack of documents. Her tightly furrowed brows made Roya's heart skip a beat.
Could there be something wrong!
As the saying goes, don't be afraid of a doctor's smiling face, but be afraid of a doctor's lowered eyebrows.
Although Lu Yun wasn't a doctor, she could assist Vegapunk. Her medical skills would only be higher than those of ordinary doctors, not lower.
Even Whitebeard and Zephyr had to endure the torment of illness. His small body couldn't withstand too much of a blow!
Roya sat up straight nervously, sweat gradually appearing on his forehead, and asked cautiously, "Lu Yun, am… am I okay?"
"Ah."
Lu Yun looked up and realized that she had already come in front of Roya. She couldn't help but stare at Roya for a long time, then sighed faintly.
Roya almost cried.
Big sister, let's talk nicely, please don't sigh, okay?
I'm really scared!
"Do I need to prepare for the funeral arrangements?"
"What funeral arrangements?"
Lu Yun was stunned for a moment, then quickly understood Roya's meaning and chuckled, "Don't worry, Roya, your body is very healthy. There's no problem living to be a hundred!"
"Ah, I'm okay!"
Roya blinked.
Damn it, if there's nothing wrong, why are you scaring me!
The thing I'm most afraid of is doctors, you know!
Lu Yun still frowned, seemingly dissatisfied with the test results, and said, "All indicators are within the normal range, super healthy, even healthy to an outrageous degree."
"Isn't that a good thing?"
Roya relaxed a lot.
Lu Yun sighed dejectedly, her face full of doubt and unwillingness. "For normal humans, it's indeed a good thing."
"…"
Am I not a normal human?
Roya looked exasperated.
You brat, be careful I sue you for defamation!
Lu Yun was still muttering to herself.
"It shouldn't be, how could Senior's body be that of a normal human? Can normal humans adapt to gravity so quickly? Is the recovery speed of normal humans that fast?"
"Could it be that the testing equipment is malfunctioning?"
"Or is it that Senior's body has special functions that the equipment can't understand, so it can't be detected?"
"But the genetic genes are no different from ordinary humans, could it be that there are some omissions that I forgot to test…"
"Senior's body is so interesting!"
As half a researcher, she firmly believed that her judgment was correct. As Vegapunk says, 'Suspicion is the ladder of scientific progress!'
After thinking for a while, Lu Yun stared at Roya with glowing eyes, as if looking at an unknown creature that had never appeared in the scientific community.
"Senior, let's check one more time, shall we?"
"Thank you, but I refuse!"
Roya refused decisively.
He didn't want to experience the nightmare of being stripped naked and wantonly played with on the operating table for a second time in his life.
The wind is picking up, time to flee!
"I'm going back first, goodbye!"
Roya turned around and ran.
Outside, the sun had already set.
The forest was silent, and the trainees had all returned to the base. Roya didn't stop and arrived at the dormitory as quickly as possible.
First, drink a cup of tea to calm my nerves.
"Eh, why are you all looking at me?"
Roya looked at his roommates, everyone was staring at him.
Isca explained uneasily, "Roya Senior, Peacock, who is ranked first on the Way of Power list, has declared war on you, saying that she will have a fair duel with you at noon tomorrow!"
"Oh!"
Roya drank tea calmly.
That little girl made a fool of herself in front of him, and she's very unconvinced, is she?
Seeing that everyone was still looking at him, Roya was a little puzzled. "Is there still a problem?"
"Of course there's a problem!"
Everyone complained in unison.
"Roya, that woman is ranked first on the Power list, the strongest genius in this year's training camp, aren't you worried?"
"What's there to worry about?"
Roya shook his head with a smile.
It's just a duel, can it be more terrifying than going to the operating table?
I'll smack her!
