In the Dressrosa Arc, we see Machvise fight. His fighting style is focused
around his Devil Fruit, the Ton-Ton Fruit, which allows him to change his own
weight (up to a weight of 10000 tons!) with him jumping up in the air and then
falling down on top of people.

What I truly cannot understand is how he is even able to hit anyone! One Piece
is a universe where people are fast enough to smack cannon-balls out of the
air and dodge bullets, how are they unable to just get out of the damn way
when they see him jump up!?!?

Even falling from a mere 20 meters will take about 2 seconds, long enough for
a real-life person to see where he will fall and get out of the way. And
Machvise tends to jump a lot higher than that, sometimes what seems like 100
meters up, which would take 4.5 seconds to fall down from!!

Honestly, I feel that his Fruit is far more suited for a fighting style that
focuses on wrestling (and he even has the big, burly body structure that would
work well in wrestling). Just run in, and as soon as he gets a good grip he
makes sure to "fall over" on top of the person (or at least on top of whatever
part he managed to grab) while adjusting his weight to a couple hundred tons.
If he does that when holding an arm, he would tear it clean off the body! Way
more effective than "jump and hope to hit"

question
one-piece
How does Machvise even hit anyone?


Changing his weight at will implies being able to lower it to close to nothing
too. That is probably the technique he uses to reach dozens of meters in a
single jump before increasing it greatly again to fall back with mighty power.

While falling, he could also lower his weight again to the weight of a feather
and use the large surface of his body to glide sideways to reach any fleeing
enemy. This is what a falcon in free fall does, precisely reaching his moving
target with the fine tuning of his wings.

Using this, he can reach great velocities he would otherwise never reach with
his legs only, running after his opponent in a more "traditional" wrestling
style.
