Magneto?

"Electromagnetic Force???"

Hyuga Satoru stood stunned for a long time before finally coming back to his senses.

I awakened Electromagnetic Force?

The Electromagnetic Force, one of the four fundamental forces?

At the same time, Hyuga Satoru sensed certain changes in his body. An indescribable sense of comfort surged from every cell, leaving him utterly refreshed.

He suddenly recalled that the human body's oxidation-reduction processes constantly produced weak bioelectric currents. Every cell was like a tiny biological battery.

Simply put, everyone had their own unique magnetic field—a Biological Magnetic Field.

Could this feeling of being so invigorated be because awakening Electromagnetic Force had greatly amplified his Biological Magnetic Field, which then fed back into his physical body?

Hyuga Satoru remembered how many unscrupulous merchants in his previous life claimed that their insoles and underwear contained Tianshan Magnets, which could enhance the human Biological Magnetic Field and miraculously prolong life or cure cancer.

That was obviously an IQ tax, but his current situation really did seem like his Biological Magnetic Field had been amplified.

Could he really manipulate Electromagnetic Force?

Hyuga Satoru swallowed and cautiously reached his hand toward the kitchen. The kitchen knife stuck diagonally into the cutting board trembled a few times, then wobbled its way through the air toward him.

Its flight path looked like it had been driving drunk, but Hyuga Satoru was overcome with ecstasy.

Electromagnetic Force!

It really was Electromagnetic Force!

He had been a science student in his previous life. There was no way he could be unfamiliar with Electromagnetic Force!

Magneto was so badass, yet he had only developed Electromagnetic Force to a rudimentary level. At most, he ought to be called the Master of Iron.

As one of the four fundamental forces, Electromagnetic Force was utterly beyond comparison with ninjutsu!

You knew Misaka Mikoto, right? That ruthless girl who could punch a hole through a cruiser with a single coin.

Using the Ampère Force generated by an electromagnetic field to accelerate metal and give it tremendous kinetic energy—that was an Electromagnetic Cannon!

Using Electromagnetic Force to bombard heavy atomic nuclei, splitting them into two or more nuclei, releasing neutrons that struck other nuclei and triggered a chain fission reaction!

In layman's terms, making a Nuclear Bomb with your bare hands.

Light possessed wave-particle duality. By using Electromagnetic Force to distort photons and create enormous Holographic Projections, genjutsu was weak as hell by comparison.

Electromagnetic Force could interfere with the brain's electrical signals and directly manipulate another person's sight, hearing, and touch. That was true puppet technique!

Celestial bodies all had magnetic fields!

If the Electromagnetic Force one controlled was powerful enough, one could even drag planets with bare hands. Mars crashing into Earth? Catastrophic Planetary Devastation was weak as hell by comparison. Madara would call that professional work.

Take that imagination a little further—were you really you?

You were merely an aggregate of tiny atoms. Everything you did was simply the result of those atoms constantly moving. Your past, your present, and your future were all the same.

Use Electromagnetic Force to manipulate the movement of atoms, and every change would be under your control. Look across the universe: omniscient and omnipotent. You were a god, and god was you.

Simply put, as long as his mastery of Electromagnetic Force was strong enough, there was almost nothing he could not do!

Hyuga Satoru took a deep breath and suppressed the shock and delight in his heart.

Fortunately, he had been a science student before transmigrating. Otherwise, he would be sitting atop a treasure mountain without knowing how to use it.

Life really was unpredictable—one moment sausages, the next moment intestines.

That morning, he had still been worried about surviving until the end of the story. Now, he had obtained a terrifying ability that could only be described as a bug.

After calming down, Hyuga Satoru began testing his control over Electromagnetic Force.

There were plenty of metal objects in the kitchen, giving Hyuga Satoru more than enough material for his experiments.

After a round of tests, he roughly understood the extent of his ability. At LV1, his control over Electromagnetic Force was limited to manipulating metals that were easily magnetized. He could initially make use of magnetic fields, including but not limited to magnetization and electrical discharge.

In addition, continually using or developing Electromagnetic Force would increase his experience points. His experiments just now had gained him 2 experience points, and he was still quite far from the 2,000 points needed to advance to LV2.

Hyuga Satoru smacked his lips, but he was not disappointed. Most ninja equipment was made of metals that could be easily magnetized. With his current abilities, he might be able to catch a Genin off guard and take their life.

Could you believe it?

You could be eating hot pot and singing songs, then suddenly, your head was gone?

After finishing his experiments, Hyuga Satoru felt drained. The faint Chakra within his body had dried up considerably.

The Hyuga Clan was, after all, a prominent Konoha family. The Chakra Refinement Technique was widely passed down, and his father had also left behind notes related to Chakra refinement. Thus, Hyuga Satoru had practiced Chakra refinement before enrolling in the academy and possessed a small amount of Chakra.

The consumption from using Electromagnetic Force was mainly mental energy and physical stamina. More intuitively, it was reflected in Chakra, since Chakra was the union of spiritual energy and physical energy.

"Eh?"

Hyuga Satoru gave a soft cry of surprise. The Chakra he had just expended was rapidly recovering, with even greater momentum than before.

He quickly realized that his Biological Magnetic Field had become much more vigorous under the amplification of Electromagnetic Force. The spiritual energy and physical energy required to refine Chakra were both related to the Biological Magnetic Field, so with that amplification, his Chakra reserves would naturally rise along with it.

Next, Hyuga Satoru began considering how to develop his ability to the fullest. He still needed a great deal of experience before reaching LV2 Electromagnetic Force, so leveling up was not something he could hope for in the short term. Combining his existing advantages to maximize the power of Electromagnetic Force—that was his goal at this stage.

Could the Byakugan, the Hyuga Clan's Kekkei Genkai, be paired with Electromagnetic Force?

With high-level Electromagnetic Force, the Byakugan would naturally be far too useless. But at his current level of Electromagnetic Force, the Byakugan seemed to have many wonderful applications.

His x-ray vision had a range of roughly one kilometer, and it would continue increasing with training. That also meant that within a one-kilometer radius, no enemy could escape his Electromagnetic Cannon strikes. A proper map-wide attack!

Furthermore, the Gentle Fist seemed capable of pairing with Electromagnetic Force as well. A conventional Gentle Fist strike targeted the chakra pathways, sealing the opponent's Chakra flow. But with the acceleration and power storage of Electromagnetic Force, one palm strike might just erase the person entirely.

And then there was the Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm. Other people fired air cannons; he fired Electromagnetic Cannons.

Hmm... this had potential.

Hyuga Satoru stroked his chin, the smile in his eyes growing deeper and deeper.

Grrr...

Just then, his stomach growled uncooperatively. Hyuga Satoru looked out the window and only then realized that the sky outside had already gone completely dark.

Between awakening Electromagnetic Force and conducting his experiments, who knew how much time had passed? His stomach had completely gone on strike.

"Perfect. I'll treat cooking this meal as part of my training!"

Hyuga Satoru smiled, rolled up his sleeves, and turned on the faucet to wash vegetables. The kitchen knife on the cutting board trembled a few times, then rose shakily into the air and automatically chopped the vegetables he had washed.

The night outside had grown very late. Amid the stillness, the kitchen window reflected his small figure and the kitchen knife dancing through the air.
