Konoha.
Hokage's Office.
Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned tightly as he listened to the latest intelligence sent back from the battlefield.
"Male-type Magnet Release (a special type of Magnet Release distinguished as'male-type' in the story)???"
"Is there really such a Magnet Release?"
He stared at the Anbu ninja in front of him in shock.
The Anbu ninja looked rather embarrassed and stammered.
"The intelligence indeed says so. Satoru Hyūga used Male-type Magnet Release to defeat the Female-type Magnet Release of the Fourth Kazekage. This has been confirmed by Lord Orochimaru."
"I see."
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked a bit solemn.
Whether Magnet Release can be divided into male and female is another matter, but Satoru Hyūga's performance in this war is truly astonishing.
Originally, he thought that Satoru Hyūga would play a significant role when paired with Minato.
But unexpectedly, Minato has completely become a supporting role.
Advisor to the Kage Chiyo and the Fourth Kazekage Rasa have both been defeated by Satoru Hyūga one after another.
Such a battle record is truly terrifying.
Even if he took action himself, it would be difficult to do better.
A
Even Orochimaru at this age had only just defeated a Jonin.
This kind of growth rate...
The Anbu ninja hesitated for a moment and then continued, "According to the intelligence conveyed by Lord Orochimaru, he seems to have defeated Rasa by relying on the restraint of his ability. His actual strength isn't that intimidating."
Hiruzen Sarutobi let out a sigh.
"I understand."
Regardless of the reason, he has far underestimated Satoru Hyūga's talent.
Especially that terrifying Male-type Magnet Release.
It's unheard of.
Now it seems that it's not just about controlling metals like Shuriken and Kunai, but all metals can be controlled.
What does this mean?
Hiruzen Sarutobi's breathing became a bit heavier.
Once this Kekkei Genkai of Male-type Magnet Release is passed down.
It may become a Kekkei family that surpasses the Hyūga clan...
"Shouldn't there be a few suitable young girls in the Sarutobi clan..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly murmured.
Anbu: ???
"Oh! It's okay. You can go now."
"Yes, Lord Hokage."
With a swoosh, the Anbu ninja disappeared.
Not long after the Anbu ninja left, there was a loud bang as the door of the Hokage's Office was kicked open, and a figure rushed in impatiently.
"Hiizan, have you heard?"
"The Magnet Release he awakened surpasses that of the Fourth Kazekage!"
Tanzō pressed one hand on the table, his bandaged face full of excitement as spittle flew.
"Hand him over to me! I want him for my ROOT!"
"Chill out!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked up at him indifferently.
"At present, we still can't be sure what the so - called Male-type Magnet Release is. Is it a Kekkei Genkai mutation or some unknown Kekkei Tota (a more advanced form of Kekkei Genkai)?"
"Anyway, it's definitely stronger than ordinary Magnet Release. The Fourth Kazekage's Magnet Release is no match for his at all. Just think about it, Hiizan. If such Magnet Release can be artificially developed and mastered, what can stop Konoha's rise in the ninja village?"
"Hand him over to me! I want him for my ROOT!"
"」
Tanzō repeated excitedly.
"Don't you forget he's from the branch family?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi said calmly.
The excitement on Tanzō's face faded instantly, as if he had been splashed with a basin of cold water.
The branch family...
It means being completely controlled by the main family.
Even if he left, there was no way to remove the [caged bird]. With just one word from the main family, they'd have to send him back meekly.
"Then at least we should leave behind his bloodline,"
Tanzō said stubbornly with an ugly look on his face.
"He's the first blood - inheritor. His blood - inheritance ability should be hereditary. There are several eligible female ninjas in my ROOT..."
"Enough!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi interrupted him impatiently.
"None of the female ninjas in your ROOT are under 30. You call that eligible?"
"As long as they can give birth,"
Tanzō retorted stubbornly.
The temptation of Satoru Hyūga's Magnet Release was too great.
Not to mention the current female ninjas in ROOT, he could even recruit a few younger ones without any problem.
"We don't know the main family's attitude yet..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned tightly.
Tanzō couldn't help but fall silent.
After all, Satoru Hyūga was from the Hyūga branch family. Even if they had planned here for a long time, one word from the main family could veto it.
He had never hated the [caged bird] so much before.
It was like suddenly finding a gold mine and wanting to mine it, only to find a talisman of the [caged bird] pasted on the mountain.
Claiming that they opened this mountain and held the 'copyright' for 500 years.
You'd be scratching your head in frustration, but there was absolutely nothing you could do.
Because they have a built - in [Self - Destruction] system. If pushed too hard, they'd blow up the whole gold mountain.
"I originally planned to pay a certain price to get the main family to agree to let Satoru Hyūga's bloodline spread outside the family, but now it seems it'll be very troublesome..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi's face looked a bit ugly.
The value of Satoru Hyūga had risen sharply.
It's probably unrealistic to use the previous conditions to persuade the main family and break the clan rules that had been passed down for thousands of years regarding Satoru Hyūga.
Those old fogeys, who knows what they're planning.
After all, even as the Hokage, he couldn't directly interfere with the clan rules of the Hyūga clan.
Tanzō's eyes were gloomy.
No one knew what he was plotting.
In the Hyūga clan's territory.
Compared to the noise and chaos outside.
It seemed rather quiet here.
Mizuki Hyūga stood with his hands behind his back, his back to Hiashi Hyūga, gazing intently out of the door.
A deep voice sounded.
"Hizashi, after this war is over, you'll succeed me as the clan leader!"
Hiashi Hyūga felt a pang in his heart. He knew that the clan leader was passing on the leadership.
He immediately bowed and replied.
"Yes."
Mizuki Hyūga let out a soft sigh, frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice.
"What's your take on that branch - family member?"
Hiashi Hyūga of course knew who the clan leader was referring to. He opened his mouth to say something but then fell silent.
Mizuki Hyūga shook his head and sighed.
"What a pity he's not from the main family!"
"
Behind him, Hiashi Hyūga couldn't help but feel sorry.
If Satoru Hyūga were from the main family, things wouldn't be so troublesome.
But he was from the branch family.
The main family would never allow a branch - family member who could shake their rule to emerge in the family.
Especially an outlier like Satoru Hyūga.
"If you had agreed to be my disciple back then, maybe..."
Hiashi Hyūga couldn't help but sigh slightly.
Now, the situation was no longer under his control.
In the Konoha tent, Satoru Hyūga stared intently at the metallic life - form in front of him.
Its silver - metallic body showed a Reflection of shiny sheen, with well - defined muscular textures. It seemed that with just one punch, it could move mountains and fill seas.
This nano - robots metallic life - form had five "cores".
The cores were intertwined and connected, and as a result, they formed a complex life system similar to that of a human body.
Its energy mainly came from the electrical energy generated by the friction between the nano - robots particles inside its body. Through the cores, this energy could be converted into chakra and vice versa.
Nano - robots had many remarkable characteristics.
Their ability to gain or lose electrons was far stronger than that of ordinary materials.
Satoru Hyūga remembered that in his past life, for a period of time, triboelectric nanogenerators were very popular. They used the friction of nano - coatings between shoes while people were walking to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy.
Each nano - robots particle in this nano - life form was a small generator.
Of course, its energy structure was not that simple.
Due to the plasticity of the Magnetic fluid, it had almost no fixed form or properties.
Solar energy, wind energy, etc., could all be used as its energy sources.
In the future, Satoru Hyūga considered adding nuclear fission to it.
The reason he attached so much importance to the energy of the clones was that the energy of the clones could be linked to the main body.
When the bird - man was engaged in the cultivation of Senji, he used shadow clone to gain an advantage.
The main body was flirting with Hinata and beating up Pain simultaneously, while the shadow clone worked 24/7 to accumulate natural power.
Even capitalists would shed tears at this sight.
If such perfect workers like clones weren't used, capitalists would come after him with knives!
Regardless of how far apart they were, this special clone would convert its energy into chakra and continuously transmit it to Satoru Hyūga.
As for the principle, whether it was quantum entanglement or just a simple chakra link.
Anyway, this was a very practical ability for Satoru Hyūga.
In the future, he won't have to worry about running out of chakra when using powerful ninjutsu.
Activate the hidden energy at the back!
There was no need to worry about the Mondai of betrayal either. The clone's consciousness came from a soul fragment separated from the main body.
Satoru Hyūga could easily perceive the clone's consciousness and even directly take over its body.
Perfect worker!
He took a deep breath.
He began to awaken it.
The scales on the surface of the silver - shiny body flipped upwards, very much like the scene of Iron Man's nano - suit merging.
The metallic life - form slowly opened its eyes.
What came into view were a pair of pure - white eyes full of expectation.
"Who am I..."
Like a newborn baby, it looked at Satoru Hyūga in confusion.
"Zero, your name is Zero."
Satoru Hyūga showed a faint smile.
Or rather... a serial number (used as a name).
It means starting from zero, which is his name.
Zero...
He seemed to be savoring this name.
A flood of memories rushed in, causing him to subconsciously frown deeply.
"Go! Bring me their eyes to test your capabilities," a cold voice rang in Zero's ears.
Meanwhile, three figures appeared in his mind.
Those three pairs of eyes were the same as those of the Creator in front of him.
Completely pure - white and flawless.
