"We understand that the Psionic Battle Group is Lord Roya's favored child—but you can't just drain us dry like this! We're all brother battle groups under Lord Roya. At least leave us so way to survive, right?"
At last, the senior leaders of the veteran battle groups—even the two great pirates, Whitebeard and Kaido—gathered together in Imu's quarters.
After a few minutes of discussion, a resolution acceptable to all was reached.
The veteran battle groups would alter their combat doctrine, developing a new system centered around psionic warriors, with ordinary warriors as support.
On this basis, warriors with exceptionally high potential for psionic awakening would first be approached within their own battle groups. The groups would explain the new doctrine and organizational frawork.
If such a warrior chose to remain, then Nuwa would have no authority to transfer them into the Psionic Battle Group.
This outco won unanimous agreent.
After all, the warriors had fought shoulder to shoulder since the days of the Pirate Star. Their bonds ran deep, and there were always those unwilling to abandon their brothers.
In practice, this ant each battle group would retain its most promising warriors, allowing only the rest—those unsuited to being the core of a psionic formation—to be considered by the Psionic Battle Group.
Nuwa herself did not mind. The Psionic Battle Group's combat style was wholly different from the others. A slight difference in innate talent made little impact.
If they chose not to join, that was simply their own loss.
Everyone felt they had not been slighted. All were satisfied.
And after this storm passed, the Psionic Battle Group swiftly integrated into the larger legion structure.
The group's personnel selection was complete, and the veteran battle groups had finalized their new doctrinal evolution as well.
Then, good news ca from the laboratories.
Using the energy circulation system of the original Warp-powered cha as a blueprint, and referencing the circuitry of the Ancient God Colossi, the researchers finally overca the material-substitution barrier for the Warp energy cycle system!
Once this hurdle was cleared, miniaturizing the cha beca a natural progression.
Soon after, a prototype rolled off the production line: a single-soldier combat cha, three ters tall, sized to fit a human pilot of roughly two ters in height.
Its fra and armor plating were forged from the highest-grade biotal, as resilient as the alloys of a warship's hull. Its toughness passed all tests.
The internal Warp energy system was built from biotal conduits and a specially engineered drive core.
As the ace Colossus pilot, Nuwa personally tested this prototype, destined to beco the Psionic Battle Group's mainline equipnt.
She was thoroughly satisfied with the design: the aesthetics, cockpit comfort, air circulation, and auxiliary systems were all excellent.
The only question was whether it could be successfully activated, and whether it could stably extract, convert, and circulate Warp energy.
Nuwa poured her psionic power into the drive core. It was sowhat strenuous, but the core gradually began to hum, then shift into a state of shimring transparency, half-real, half-unreal.
A surge of Warp energy gushed forth, coursing through the conduits and flooding into every part of the cha, clinging directly to its fra—like blood nourishing a living body.
The activation was successful.
Amid the cheers of the researchers, Nuwa piloted the prototype in a specially constructed test field, subjecting it to a series of brutal trials.
Within re seconds, the entire field was left in ruins, as though a herd of beasts had stampeded through.
From this, Nuwa gathered firsthand data and experience:
Neural conductivity: excellent!
The psionic signals transmitted to the cha's joints were as responsive as her own limbs. Operating it felt nearly indistinguishable from moving her own body.
Endurance: excellent!
Although startup required a high threshold of psionic power, once activated, the drive core sustained itself through the Warp energy cycle. The core no longer drained the pilot's reserves directly. Psionic consumption was reduced to neural signal transmission alone.
This granted it endurance far superior to the Ancient God Colossi.
Combat capability: terrifying!
With armor as resilient as warship hull alloys, no known weapon short of a dominator-class psionic blast could breach its defenses in an instant.
The cha had no structural weak points. There was no need for a vulnerable transparent cockpit viewport—the pilot's psionics provided full awareness of their surroundings without relying on sight.
The conduits and drive core, strengthened by Warp energy, were even tougher than the external armor, ensuring they would not fail prematurely in battle.
Such overwhelming defense was matched by equally devastating offense.
Basic strikes—punches and kicks—required no comnt. Thanks to the cha's flawless neural response, every blow landed with visceral force. The tactile feedback of striking a target was as vivid and precise as the sensation of flesh on flesh.
This performance promised endless possibilities for custom weapons tailored to each psionic warrior's style and combat needs.
As for energy weaponry, the prototype bore six emitters: in the palms, shoulders, and soles.
The palm and sole emitters could serve as weapons, but also as thrusters, modulating power output to enable sub-light flight in space and rapid deploynt across planetary surfaces.
The shoulder emitters could fire independently, or link along preset channels into a single massive cannon.
When combined, this shoulder cannon could unleash the drive core's maximum Warp energy extraction and conversion in a single blast—its destructive power equivalent to the compressed fission of a small planetary core.
Although such a shot would overload the system, forcing the core offline for fifteen minutes before psionics could reignite it, the sheer firepower was beyond question.
For how many targets in existence could possibly withstand such an attack?
Even the Seventh Overlord, in his pri, had unleashed only the power of a standard planetary core fission strike at full strength.
This prototype's combined shoulder cannon had already reached dominator-class firepower.
