I'm in HxH, Survive for Five Years!

Rumble...

The Trial Gate trembled under Alex's push, then steadily opened from the first to the sixth door under his immense strength.

Alex's physical growth far surpassed that of Shiba and Mia.

Back in Meteor Street, when he used the [Hundredfold Training Card], he trained under extreme gravity, pushing his physical strength to hundreds of tons. During his recent rest period, his rapidly surging potential energy further fueled his body's development.

Even so, his pure physical strength still hadn't surpassed 256 tons, the requirement to open the seventh and final gate.

"He opened the sixth gate—just as I thought."

"Even though he didn't make it to the seventh, Alex's physical progress is incredible," Shiba said with awe.

Mia nodded in agreement. They both knew firsthand how fast Alex was growing.

In just over six months, his strength had increased from barely five tons to well over 128 tons. That level of improvement bordered on monstrous.

A short distance away, Jim Bron, the gatekeeper, was just as stunned.

"He really opened the sixth gate..."

Even though Dilumon had already demonstrated similar strength, seeing Alex match it left Jim Bron in complete disbelief.

"Still not enough... That felt like I used about 90% of my power, which means I'm around 150 tons of force right now."

Alex slowly retracted his hands from the door and reflected on the sensation he felt when pushing.

The combination of energy feedback from his developed Nen and constant gravity-based training had done wonders for his physique.

Now, with almost 150 tons of strength, Alex's raw physical capabilities were among the best—even compared to Enhancer-type Nen users.

He didn't feel disappointed at all about not reaching the final gate.

After all, he'd already anticipated this, especially after watching Dilumon's performance. And considering how rapidly his body was evolving, there was no reason to dwell on any setbacks.

"The physical trial is done—time to complete the achievement."

As the massive doors slowly shut once more, Alex stepped forward again and pressed his palms to the stone gate.

"Eh? He's trying again?"

Jim Bron had just started walking toward the group when he paused in surprise, puzzled by Alex's action.

"Cheating may not be honorable, but if it earns me the reward, it's worth a shot."

Alex's eyes lit up as he activated his Thread Fruit ability.

Inside his body, countless threads silently expanded and wove through his muscles, supporting his entire frame.

This wasn't the advanced "Vein Thread" form—just a foundational extension of his power. But even that was enough. Like internal springs, the threads dramatically amplified his physical output.

"Hah!"

With a focused shout, Alex unleashed his full strength.

BOOM!

The Trial Gate shook violently as a massive crevice split up its center. One by one, all seven doors of the gate creaked and groaned—and then fully swung open.

"He did it... He opened the seventh gate."

"Did he hold back the first time?"

Shiba and Mia watched in stunned silence. Their astonishment only grew as the final door creaked open, revealing the full scope of Alex's power.

"All seven doors... completely opened..." Jim Bron clutched his chest as his heart pounded.

The sixth gate alone was a rare feat. The seventh? Nearly unheard of.

Within the Zoldyck family, only two members—Silva and Zeno—had ever achieved such a feat.

For an outsider like Alex to succeed... Jim Bron could scarcely believe his eyes.

Ding!

Achievement Completed: [Trial Gate]!

Reward: [Hundred-Step Divine Fist], [Blood Bodhi x5], [Gravity Ring]

As the gate stood open, the system notification echoed in Alex's mind.

"Looks like that worked."

Alex let out a quiet breath and stepped back, allowing the door to slowly close behind him.

He had taken a risk using the Thread Fruit to boost his body—it wasn't a Nen-based ability, and he hadn't been sure if the gate's Nen-nullifying property would suppress it.

But clearly, it had worked.

In that sense, calling it "cheating" was perhaps unfair. The system never required that he use raw strength alone—it simply said to "open the Trial Gate."

"Let's see what I got this time."

Alex was eager to check the rewards. Two of them—[Blood Bodhi] and [Gravity Ring]—were familiar.

He quickly skimmed over those and focused on the new one:

[Hundred-Step Divine Fist]:

A legendary martial art from another world. Allows the user to project perfect punching force at a distance of up to 100 steps (approx. 100 meters). Enhanced by the Emperor Engine system.

"A martial art technique?" Alex raised an eyebrow in surprise.

Then he noticed the note about it being a cross-world inheritance—just like the [Great Fire Annihilation] he'd received previously.
