Sizzle—

As the Training Pod door opened, steam billowed out, and Pakura, soaking wet, climbed out of the Training Pod with a tired yet satisfied expression, his eyes shining brightly.

"Have some water! Looks like it worked!"

Vegapunk took a glass of water from the side and handed it to Pakura. Pakura drank it down without hesitation. There was no Nutrient Solution or anything like that in this Training Pod. The water on Pakura's clothes and the steam that had just risen from her body were all sweat from her experiments.

After drinking a glass of lightly salted water to replenish her energy and fluids, Pakura finally recovered. Her face flushed, and the tight-fitting lab coat she was wearing, already quite form-fitting, became even more revealing after being soaked with sweat, making her look even more alluring than if she were naked. This caused her to shrink back slightly.

However, Vegapunk had no time to appreciate this tempting scene. What he cared about most was whether Pakura's Kekkei Tōta was the same as what he had calculated.

"Alright, take a short rest. We'll go to the training room later to test your current Kekkei Tōta. I wonder if it matches my calculations?"

If it matches, it means that Vegapunk's understanding of Chakra attribute fusion is correct, and he can naturally continue to deduce.

If any problems arise, and the resulting Kekkei Tōta is different from Vegapunk's conception, then all the conjectures and calculation models so far will have to be scrapped and started over. This is something Vegapunk cannot afford to take lightly.

Even when serious, Vegapunk still had the decisive and efficient demeanor of a scientist. After resting for about ten minutes, changing her clothes, and recovering her strength, Pakura went with him to the training room specifically used for destructive Ninjutsu experiments.

The entire Laboratory is made entirely of metal, a metal alloy created by Vegapunk's Magnetic Field Ability and Lightning Metallurgy abilities. Its strength far exceeds that of ordinary steel, since Vegapunk's Magnetic Field Manipulation ability is sufficient to make the crystal structure of the smelted alloy perfect.

Many Sand Villagers even highly praised the various alloys created by Vegapunk, and some of the high-grade alloys that leaked out were priced at almost half the price of Chakra Iron.

Of course, this is also because Vegapunk spends most of his time doing experiments and has no interest in repetitive work like smelting alloys. He would not make them unless necessary, so what leaked out were alloys dismantled from various discarded experimental objects.

In this Laboratory, if some of the alloy targets are damaged by Pakura, Vegapunk will simply remove them. That's the source of those alloys. The quantity is definitely limited, hence the high price.

After arriving at the training room, Pakura took a deep breath and, after Vegapunk had adjusted the various filming and testing equipment, activated her Kekkei Tōta ability.

Pakura stretched out his hand slightly, and a dazzling beam of multicolored light instantly struck the human-shaped target. After a dozen seconds, the target gradually appeared, turned red, and dripped molten metal.

"Okay, stop!" Vegapunk waved his hand, and Pakura immediately stopped her attack, though she still looked somewhat dissatisfied.

This Kekkei Tōta technique doesn't seem very powerful; it looks no different from my own Scorch Release!

The only advantage is its extremely fast attack speed. Not only does it not require Hand Seals, but when it is unleashed, its speed exceeds that of all the Five Basic Nature Transformations. Even if this Chakra- simulated light does not reach the speed of real light, it can still be called the fastest escape technique in the Ninja World.

Although his own Scorch Release Ninjutsu also requires no Hand Seals and can be released instantly with a thought, and the speed of the two fireballs is quite agile, it is still impossible for him to compete with this kind of beam Ninjutsu in terms of speed.

Vegapunk clearly saw through Pakura's thoughts. After glancing at the test results on several instruments, he said to the unconvinced Pakura, "Remember the characteristics of this kind of escaping technique that I told you about at the beginning? It penetrates matter and kills living things! Physical Destruction is not the direction for the development of your kind of escaping technique. Being able to have power close to that of an ordinary Kekkei Genkai is already strong enough!"

Pakura frowned upon hearing this. "But my Ninjutsu didn't penetrate this target either!"

"That's only what it appears to be," Vegapunk shook his head. "Let's proceed with the second round of experiments! Soon you'll see the true terror of your Ninjutsu!"

He then activated his ability, manipulating the humanoid metal target to sink below, after which a metal wall rose from the ground.

Vegapunk then brought in some live animals, such as Desert lizards, from other Laboratory, tied them up, and placed them behind the metal wall. "Alright, you can try your Kekkei Tōta Ninjutsu again!"

Pakura nodded upon hearing this and fired another brilliant beam of colored light, but this time Vegapunk stopped him as soon as it hit the metal wall.

The metal wall was removed, revealing the Desert lizard behind it. Pakura was surprised to find that although her attack had not penetrated the metal wall, it seemed to have indeed caused a great deal of damage.

The Desert lizard was bleeding from all seven orifices, struggling and agitating wildly. After a while, even the scales on its skin began to fall off, and blood trickled from its entire body. After a few more miserable struggles, it died completely.

"Is this my Kekkei Tōta?" Pakura's face showed a hint of surprise. Vegapunk nodded. "That's right, this is the true power of your Kekkei Tōta. Next, we'll use other substances to block your beam of light, and next time we'll use an animal with Chakra to test its resistance."

After a night of experiments, Vegapunk finally came to a conclusion: Pakura Tota Ninjutsu was terrifyingly lethal to living organisms. Without any defense, animals, whether they had Chakra or not, would be instantly turned into a pool of thick blood by Kekkei Tōta seven-colored beam of light.

When it comes to defense, the performance will vary depending on the type of Ninjutsu used, or the material and thickness of the defense.

Among them, lead has the strongest defense against the Pakura's Kekkei Genkai, followed by metal, then various rocks and soil, and the remaining defensive abilities such as Water Release are only slightly better than nothing.

Then there's the issue of Chakra resistance to Pakura's Kekkei Tōta Ninjutsu. The stronger the Chakra, the higher the resistance to Pakura's Pakura Kekkei Tōta Ninjutsu. Of course, this refers to Ninjutsu that has penetrated the defense.

According to Vegapunk's estimation, Jonin- level Chakra, using Earth Release Ninjutsu, the best defensive technique among the Five Basic Nature Transformations, would need to be at least five meters thick to basically defend against the destructive power of Pakura's beam. Even then, it's possible to leave behind many minor, incurable aftereffects.
