There are two accepted versions of the calcs for Pica's feats of manipulating stone in chapter 749 and chapter 777.
The first versio calculated by CinCameron20 assumes 1.33 seconds and 2 seconds respectively for the feats.
The second versio calculated by myself assumes between 5 and 10 seconds for the two feats with either end being accepted for both feats.
After a conversation with DontTalkDT on his message wall, it looks like the current justifications for highballing the timeframe of the feats to be as low as 1.33 seconds is not based on solid evidence. It is the result of arbitrary expectations of dust clouds which could linger for several seconds especially at the large size implied by the size of Pica's statue.
The timeframes of the feats is necessarily brief due to context of the events, but there is no reason to assume it took anything less than 5 seconds for the large masses of stone to be completely moved.
Personally I support 5 seconds for the first feat and 10 seconds for the second feat as there is a larger volume of stone being moved in the second feat.
I would appreciate input from any calc group members to see what they think about the timeframes.
