The crew kept on fighting among each other in the environment created by the moons gravity.
Archie who had the most stable and heavy build which allowed for many types of combat with his lower half firmly on the ground to hold his balance and create more stability and power behind his attacks has a more difficult time adjusting to the different gravity.
He struggled to hold his ground when attacking or clashing against others within the lesser gravity so he lost his firm footing and was pushed back often.
All Alyssia had to do to defeat him was to overpower his attacks that have his quake bubbles with her own high mastery of the Eight Impact Fist and to hit him hard enough to loosen his stance a little so that he could not be firmly rooted to the ground.
Soon after he would be knocked back and be forced to stabilise himself before rejoining the battle but because he was less adept with moonwalk and other techniques and mostly focussed on Iron Body, he quickly found that he had a major flaw in how he had been focussing his priorities during his training of the Six Powers.
It wasn't that training Iron Body as a priority was wrong but that the Six Powers each had their own power and style of combat that provided more versatility to adapt to all kinds of environments and opponents.
Just like he was focussing on his defences and neglecting his training in the others, others may be doing the same and while he was focussing on defence and lacking in movement and a high enough mastery of how to use Tempest Kick, he was now able to make up for some of his weaknesses with his Devil Fruit abilities.
Clifford was the same as he focussed on his sword skills over others and had gained some mastery over the Shave technique while Nica was the same with her Shave and sniping, they both lacked in defensive training unlike Archie.
The three of them could be considered monsters already when electro was used and their new bloodline serum had been injected into their bodies along with their own combat styles but they were not without their flaws.
Carrot and Tristan were a lot more versatile as they had built themselves up in a balanced way, Carrot had both ranged and melee capabilities while using Finger Pistol and Tempest Kick in her claw attacks and kicks with A higher mastery over Paper Art than Iron Body while Tristan had worked more towards balancing her mastery over Iron Body and Paper Art while improving her Eight Impact Fist which had been further improved from several shockwave type of skills Alyssia had collected.
Due to Carrot and Tristans physiques being above the others as they trained with Alyssia from a very young age, they were able to adjust their bodies to the Six Powers and Eight Impact training quickly and gain a high level of mastery over each of them much faster than the other Minks while Alyssia had long surpassed them.
If Alyssia was now classified as being somewhere between a commander/general and Emperor level with her current physique and mastery over her Haki and other skills or abilities or perhaps even higher with a bounty between eight hundred million to one billion berries then Carrot and Tristan would be between four hundred million to eight hundred million berries.
Archie, Clifford and Nica would probably be between two hundred million to six hundred million berries while other crew members had gained enough strength in a short time to allow the strongest among them to compete against the Worst Generation while some may only be able to fight against others with a bounty lower than a hundred million or two hundred million berries if they are in possession of their equipment or use their Devil Fruit abilities.
However those were just rough estimates made from their current capabilities since they had yet to face a true challenge for themselves since provoking powerful people was not something that they had been doing over the past year or more since they joined the crew.
Once they each got to face someone at their own level or slightly above would they know their own level properly while Alyssia was perhaps already at the level of an Admiral/Emperor or would be very soon if she gained more mastery over her Haki and gained more fighting experience against stronger opponents.
Her stats and skills were not everything and even if she had surpassed the worlds limit for many of her stats, her experience and Haki was still lacking compared to others who had held their position for a very long time.
After some of the spare parts and equipment were moved to the Ark Maxim along with some minerals and other things from the Space Pirates or the Birka ruins, Alyssia had finished analysing the progress of the crew members that were with her and stepped on board the Ark Maxim. "For now we can go back to Rica Island but I have a task for some of you. Carrot, Medea and Ashwin!"
The three of them straightened their backs instinctively as they knew that Alyssia was about to give them an important task. "Yes! (Yes sis!) (hm?)"
Alyssia continued. "I wish for the three of you to form a sky exploration crew that is focussed on activities on excavating the ruins of the Sky Islands you may come across along with further exploring the moon and space. I would ask Aizah to join too but she has her own duties within the entertainment company."
Carrot asked carefully. "Why me?"
Medea then asked too. "And me?"
Ashwin just nodded quietly as he waited for her to explain.
Alyssia started explaining. "This crew may seem small but it really isn't because there will be others who will be a part of it like the Skypieans who chose to join us along with the many ancient Automata who have joined. Ashwin will be needed to help study new technology and handle the relations with the Automata and Skypieans. Medea will provide her excellent combat and detection abilities along with her ability to recharge the Automata while Carrot will be placed as the captain of this crew."
When the Automata are wounded or without power, Medea's electrical attacks can help them recover and charge up their power once again to allow them to fight once again so she was needed to keep the Automata army functioning and able to fight.
The Automata seem to possess the ability to self repair upon being charged up so long as their injuries are not too fatal so they could continue to fight again so long as they received a hit from Medea's abilities.
Medea also possessed a wide range of detection thanks to her Rumble Devil Fruit abilities so she would be able to better pick up on approaching people or space ships so she was more than qualified to take the role as the vice captain or first mate.
Carrot was the strongest among them so she was given the role as captain by default and Ashwin was given the role of the second mate or the crews scientist because of his many responsibilities.
Medea calmly spoke. "So I need to stick around and keep those things charged up but what about the ones down below?"
Alyssia answered. "The ones below have been built in a similar way to these Automata but they do not just work with your abilities. Having some Minks around should be more than enough."
Medea nodded. "Okay."
Ein smiled lazily as she said. "Indeed.. I did not get a chance to show off my babies here since the environment is not so suitable for them."
Carrot sighed. "I will take up this task you have given me but what else do you have hidden from us that you wish to have done?"
Carrot may not be a sly character but she knew how Alyssia was and that her goals would not be so simple.
Alyssia smiled as she looked towards her. "Just explore, discover new races, discover new civilisations, discover new technology, discover new materials and just discover other groups or at least learn about the culture or structure of the aliens."
Carrot grinned. "How exciting!"
Alyssia nodded. "By looking at the Space Pirates suits, the air further out must be even less and difficult for others to live within so they need a space suit. Do not venture out too early until you get one for yourselves and if you encounter a big problem, retreat and contact me."
The three of them nodded.
After the discussion, the crew returned on the Ark Maxim as they flew away from the moon and back to the earth below.
After they arrived back on Rica Island, Archie started kneeling down to the ground and kissed it to show how much he had missed the normal gravity that he was used to while everyone was adjusting to the change of gravity once again after leaving the moon.
Meanwhile on Rica Island, something was beginning to take place that Alyssia and others had been wary of for a long time a couple of days before they had started returning from the moon.
