Trial Begins

Witnessing Gento raise his bat high above his head, I notice a significant shift in his Ki. It's overflowing with lethal intent. It's at this very moment that the realization dawns upon me; Gento is toying with Monk.

BOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!!!!!!

The deafening roar echoes throughout the arena as Gento swings his bat, striking the ground without budging from his spot. A massive shockwave engulfs the area, raising a storm of dust and debris. The stadium's foundation quivers and vibrates, as if on the brink of collapse, yet miraculously, it holds.

"Wow, master.... I wish I could create such an attack..." Stella whispers in awe, her eyes fixed on the spectacle below.

"You'll be capable of creating even mightier attacks," I reassure Stella, earning a quizzical look from her.

"But Gento can unleash stronger attacks than that!" Commander Lolan interjects, seemingly skeptical of my words.
