The Forest.
Golden chains tightly wrapped around Mirai, binding his arms and legs ultimately!
His entire body looked like it was wrapped like a dumpling!
Impenetrable!
“Stop resisting, this is a special sealing technique designed just for you!”
“A combination of sealing jutsu and barrier jutsu.”
“Right now, you can’t move your chakra at all, not even a finger!”
The voice of the Root leader was filled with confidence.
Mirai was not an ordinary enemy, not one that could be defeated with numbers alone.
The countless battles of the Third Ninja War had proven this.
No one knew his limits; he was a genuinely terrifying enemy.
So, they chose a cunning approach.
Using a specialized sealing technique to cut off his abilities directly.
This way, no matter his methods, he would no longer be able to use them!
Even though Mirai was already sealed, reduced to a lamb waiting for slaughter.
The surrounding Root members still looked at him with a lingering dread.
A perfect battle plan, thoroughly researched intel on him, countless rehearsals in secret.
They even took advantage of Mirai’s arrogance and set up a sealing barrier in advance in this forest.
But even so.
When the battle started, it was a crushing defeat, with two Jonin-level Root members brutally killed, their bodies obliterated!
What a terrifying enemy, every move filled with suffocating pressure.
Fortunately, Lord Danzo was wise!
The tactic was successful.
It was all over.
“Hmph!”
A contemptuous laugh suddenly sounded, small but piercing to the surrounding Root members’ ears.
“Why are you laughing?”
They couldn’t understand why he was laughing at such a critical moment.
Mirai still had the mood to laugh?
Was he out of his mind?
“I’m just enjoying your performance.”
His calm expression showed no tension or worry, and the slightly upturned corners of his mouth made him appear somewhat pleased.
“Using sealing jutsu to block my abilities, not a bad idea. As a reward…”
“I’ll get a bit serious too!”
When his voice fell, the four Root members maintaining the sealing jutsu suddenly changed their expressions.
“The seal, the sealing jutsu is being corroded!? Impossible! He shouldn’t be able to move his chakra!”
“Look! What is that!?”
From the gaps in the golden chains binding Mirai’s body, a viscous, tentacle-like silver fluid seeped out, eroding and devouring the surrounding chains bizarrely.
“Damn it! What is this stuff!!!”
In no time, the seeping fluid, like silver snakes, spread along the chains, already close at hand!
The four Root members maintaining the sealing jutsu felt a strong sense of threat, a surge of deadly crisis, and they retreated in panic.
But it was too late!
The silver fluid transformed into silver bullets, instantly bursting like a terrifying metallic storm engulfing the forest.
Massive trees were instantly pierced through.
The bodies of those Root members were as fragile as paper.
“Ahhhh!!!”
The sound of flesh and wood being pierced, the sound of the metallic storm, the horrific screams of the Root members…
It was like an elegant symphony, activated amidst blood and slaughter.
The more distant Root members dodged in horror, with some using Earth Release walls to defend, but the metallic storm instantly pierced them.
Finally.
When everything settled down.
The scene was tragic! Utterly tragic!
The four Root members were wiped out, unable even to escape, their bodies obliterated!
The mixture of flesh and wood chips was all that remained as evidence of their existence.
The surviving Root members, their pale throats convulsing despite their harsh training and emotional numbness.
Watching this bloody scene, they couldn’t help but feel a surge of nausea, their stomachs churning with acid.
How did this guy do it?!
He was supposed to be immobilized by the sealing jutsu!
Mirai looked at them calmly, a hint of a smile in his eyes as if he hadn’t killed in a long time.
In the rustling sound, silver bullets in the forest transformed into silver droplets, shedding blood and converging around him.
The silver fluid, like tentacles, coiled around his body, grotesque, writhing, twisting…
Venom?
No!
It was Magnetofluid!
Magnetic solid particles of nanometer size are mixed with a base liquid to form a stable colloidal fluid.
Possessing both the fluidity of a liquid and the magnetism of magnetic materials.
Under the influence of Mirai’s electromagnetic force, this characteristic was maximized!
Usually, these magnetofluids were hidden under his clothes, forming a high-strength armor under electromagnetic force.
Even with sensory ninjutsu, detecting this purely metallic armor was impossible.
During battle, these magnetofluids would transform into any weapon he desired under electromagnetic force.
This layer of magnetofluid also contributed to Mirai’s extremely high efficiency in applying electromagnetic propulsion to himself.
At short and medium distances, he could even rival space-time ninjutsu.
Frightened enemies called him…
The Blue Flash!
Surrounded by magnetofluid tentacles, a trace of melancholy suddenly appeared in Mirai’s blue eyes.
Memories long buried surged forth like a tide.
Three years ago, he couldn’t control nanometer-sized magnetofluid well.
Micrometer-sized magnetic particles were his limit.
Until that day…
“Minato, I need to go out for about three months. If all goes well, my abilities will improve significantly.”
“Is that so? Kushina’s due date is also in three months, so you’ll be just in time for Naruto’s birth. If you’re late, Naruto won’t recognize you as his uncle!”
“Hahaha, I can’t wait to see Naruto. I haven’t held him yet as his uncle!”
…
The Land of Wind.
The Dragon Vein.
Looking at that purple ocean, Mirai’s blue eyes were filled with joy.
“Is this the source of that enormous energy? If I can absorb it, the Electromagnetic Tree might level up to LV4.”
“Three months’ time is enough.”
…
Mirai closed his eyes, and a trace of wetness appeared at the corners.
He misjudged.
The Dragon Vein contained time-disrupting abilities.
He fell into a time distortion, and it was already three years later when he returned.
When he reopened his eyes, the coldness in them was palpable.
The temperature in the forest suddenly dropped.
The remaining Root members, feeling his gaze, shivered, a chill running down their spines.
“You’re unfortunate, reminding me of unpleasant memories.”
