A Certain Scientific Electromagnetic Cannon

Late at night, the medical tent was filled with the scent of herbs and blood.

Hinata Tianyi woke amid burning pain throughout his body.

He simply lay still, listening to the sounds inside the tent and the intermittent groans of wounded soldiers in the distance.

The steady breathing of the ninja keeping watch as he leaned against the wall.

And the pounding of his own heartbeat against his eardrums.

He was safe!

Only then did he slowly let out a breath and sink his consciousness into his mind.

Just as expected!!!

Saving Nawaki had been judged a special event.

With his eyes still closed, he began to think. External help could only be relied upon for so long. Only by becoming strong himself could he survive in this world.

Looking at the extra attribute point, he did not hesitate to add it to "Nin."

Nin: 5↑ (Chakra control, jutsu comprehension, and casting speed)

He left the remaining point untouched. It was a spark for saving his life and had to be kept in reserve.

After this battle, he needed to sort out his combat system.

Tianyi then took out paper and pen. By the dim oil lamp, he began calmly analyzing himself:

My strengths are obvious—the insight granted by the Byakugan.

Even with the Caged Bird restriction, its basic x-ray vision and long-range vision were still sufficient.

As for taijutsu, the Hyuga Gentle Fist was a reliable close-combat method.

It could effectively damage an enemy's chakra system.

Coupled with the natural resistance to genjutsu provided by his transmigrator's soul and the Byakugan itself, mental defense was not one of his weaknesses.

But his weaknesses were just as obvious: the assessment of "half a card" of chakra.

It severely limited every possibility. He lacked ninjutsu and had almost nothing beyond the Three-Body Technique and Gentle Fist.

His methods were pitifully limited, which made his tactics rigid and easy for others to figure out.

Most importantly, he lacked effective long-range attacks and the ability to conceal himself.

The Gentle Fist's Empty Palm had a short range and made too much noise.

Once an enemy opened the distance or he needed to infiltrate or escape, he would immediately fall into a passive position.

At that thought, the battle from earlier that day surfaced in his mind again.

Relying on perception and close-quarters combat was too passive. There was far too little room for error.

"Something has to change." Tianyi drew a heavy stroke across the paper.

At this stage, the direction for strengthening himself was clear: concealment and long-range attacks.

His gaze fell on his own attributes: Lightning, Earth, Water.

For concealment, he could start with Water and Earth.

Water Release: Hidden Mist Technique could create large-scale visual cover and disrupt enemy perception.

It could create an environment completely favorable to him.

As for Earth Release, Earth Release: Earth Dragon Hide Technique would allow him to burrow underground.

It would enable silent movement, infiltration, ambushes, or retreat.

Combined, the two would be enough to make up for his greatest current weakness in survival.

As for offense, he needed a more efficient and deadlier long-range method.

The first thing that came to mind was Water Release: Water Severing Wave. Its high-pressure water blade possessed powerful cutting force.

It had a long range and was relatively inconspicuous to activate. Combined with the Byakugan's precise targeting—

It could become a solid option for mid- to long-range sniping.

Its only drawback was that jutsu of that level would not be easy for him to learn at present.

But as he considered that, Tianyi's thoughts involuntarily drifted further.

His finger unconsciously tapped the Lightning attribute.

Lightning Release... electromagnetic force...

A bolder and more promising idea suddenly crashed into his mind.

To his soul from the information age, the Naruto World's use of Lightning Release—

Was crude and wasteful. What was the essence of lightning? The movement of electric charges, the change of electromagnetic fields.

What if he could combine modern electromagnetic theory with his Lightning-nature chakra...

"Railgun... Super Electromagnetic Cannon..." he murmured, a sharp glint flashing through his eyes.

That was not merely about power. It meant a complete qualitative leap in range, speed, accuracy, and even tactical flexibility.

If he succeeded, he would possess a trump card capable of changing a local battlefield and even influencing struggles at a higher level.

However, this concept was far too vast, beyond the limits of what one person could accomplish.

It required a solid theoretical foundation, complex mathematical modeling, and repeated experimental verification.

It might also require the support of special materials. This was absolutely not something he could achieve by burying his head in training alone.

But he was not alone.

"I have a country." That thought steadied his heart and even gave rise to an indescribable confidence.

Behind him stood an entire modern civilization with a top-tier scientific research system.

And powerful industrial capabilities.

Science was precisely the strongest "ninjutsu" in that world.

Once he successfully forged this path of "Scientific Ninjutsu: Electromagnetic Force."

Its significance would far surpass his own personal strength.

It would mean that a form of supernatural power from another world—

Had been successfully analyzed, quantified, and given a reproducible, optimizable scientific methodology.

By then, what he represented would be an entirely new possibility.

Ideas surged like a tide before gradually settling into clarity.

He decided that tonight, he would send this plan, containing his self-analysis—

His short-term tactical reinforcement plans and long-term vision for scientific collaboration—

To the think tank of his motherland.

The morning light had only just driven away the chill in the camp.

When Nawaki's distinctive, energetic voice came from outside the tent:

"Tianyi! Tianyi! Are you feeling better?"

Tianyi jolted awake from his light sleep and answered.

The curtain was lifted, and Nawaki slipped inside with a brilliant smile on his face.

He held two scrolls in his hands.

"You're finally awake! My sister lectured me for ages last night. She only let me out after dawn."

Nawaki scratched his head, then solemnly handed one of the scrolls to him.

"This was given to me by Teacher Orochimaru for you. He said you deserved it."

Tianyi's heart skipped a beat as he accepted the scroll.

He untied the cord and slowly unrolled it.

The name of the technique at the beginning made his breathing hitch slightly.

Cell Activation Technique.

As he continued reading, the contents stirred his heart even more.

This was not a ninjutsu that directly increased chakra, but a secret technique that improved cellular metabolic efficiency.

With long-term practice, it could steadily increase chakra while also strengthening the body's recovery ability and physical strength.

It perfectly addressed the weakness in his current physical foundation.

Tianyi was deeply shaken. As expected of Orochimaru—he had seen through exactly what Tianyi currently lacked at a glance.

And provided a solution.

This reward was a hundred times more valuable than simply giving him an elemental ninjutsu.

"Teacher also said that this technique carries a certain degree of risk. It's best to try it for the first time under the observation of an experienced medical ninja."

Nawaki added. It seemed Orochimaru really had considered everything thoroughly.

"I understand. Please thank Lord Orochimaru for me." Tianyi solemnly rolled up the scroll and carefully put it away.

This solved the foundational issue for his long-term development.

Nawaki grinned and pulled out the second scroll. "And this one—my sister insisted I give it to you. She said you could use it too."

A gift from Tsunade? Tianyi accepted it again and unrolled it.

Inside was not any particular ninjutsu.

Rather, it systematically explained how to divide chakra more finely.

How to deeply control shape transformation and nature transformation.

It contained a great number of training methods and annotated insights.

It even covered how to maintain a jutsu's effect while—

Reducing unnecessary chakra waste.

This was exactly what he needed!

He had just raised his Nin attribute and was in need of more advanced control theory to practice.

This scroll would make his already improved control even more formidable.

Using his limited chakra more efficiently would be invaluable, whether for learning new jutsu or optimizing his existing methods.

"The Legendary Three..." Tianyi closed the scroll and let out a long breath.

This gift of thanks was practical, generous, and extremely targeted.

It coincided perfectly with the areas he had urgently planned to strengthen.

"Nawaki, please thank Lady Tsunade for me as well." Tianyi paused and looked at the sincerely smiling boy before him.

"These are very important to me."

"Don't mention it! You saved me. It's only right."

Nawaki waved his hand, then lowered his voice.

"Oh, right. My sister also said they won't be assigning us any missions for the time being.

Hidden Rain Village's scouting has become more frequent. There should be a decisive battle soon.

We should use these brief days to train our fundamentals properly!

Come with me later. I have a secret training ground."

Tianyi nodded in response.
