In my size

In my size humans see a test of themselves. They hear fighting words on the wind, when all I’m thinking is how the late-day sun reminds me of a ripe nectarine.
I’m mightier than any human, four hundred pounds of pure power. My body looks made for battle. My arms, outstretched, span taller than the tallest human.
The above is from the book The one and only Ivan the gorilla.
I read and know that the prepositions show relationship between the object of the preposition and some other word or parts in the sentence.
"In my size" is the prepositional phrase with "my size" as an object of the preposition "in".
What is that other part in the sentence that the preposition "in" relates to?
What is the grammatical function of the prepositional phrase "in my size"?
