Since that day, Pakura hadn't seen Vegapunk for three or four days. She occasionally asked the researchers here, and was told it was to study her enhancement and modification plan.
Regarding Vegapunk's so-called radical modification, Pakura had been feeling uneasy. Although she hadn't formed factions in the Hidden Sand, her own strength destined her for a high position of power. She had some understanding of the dark side of the Great Ninja Villages and those human body modifications.
Among the Five Great Ninja Villages, besides Konoha, the Hidden Sand might be the one with the most research on the human body. Otherwise, horrific works like Human Puppets wouldn't have appeared. Precisely because Pakura understood the horror of those human modifications, she had been restless during this time.
At first, she could rely on her original resolute will to suppress these stray thoughts and show no fear. But as time went on and she thought more, her anxiety became apparent.
So when she saw Vegapunk again, the expression on Pakura's face was very strange, like a patient going to the hospital for a check-up, looking at a doctor in a white coat holding a physical examination report and preparing to speak to her.
Before the doctor comes out, one can't wait to know the result immediately. When the doctor actually stands in front, one hopes the waiting time could be longer. It was probably this kind of contradictory feeling.
"Alright, now lie down on that bed!"
After giving Pakura an injection, Vegapunk spoke directly. As Pakura lay on the bed, she asked cautiously, "Was that anesthesia just now?"
"What are you thinking? That was your modification serum!"
Vegapunk looked at Pakura strangely, said a word, and then waved his hand impatiently: "Alright, don't worry about so much! I'm about to activate the serum's effect!"
Before Pakura could react, Vegapunk had adjusted the magnetic field on the experimental bed to a specific frequency. Then, Pakura felt her Chakra circulating rapidly, and a mysterious power permeated her entire Chakra, causing a strange change in its nature.
Various metal objects in the entire room instantly floated up. A flash of panic crossed Pakura's face, but she soon calmed down. As her mind moved, all the metal came to her side, circling and floating around her.
"This... what Bloodline Limit is this? Why does it look a bit like Magnet Release?" Pakura asked with her mouth open.
"This is Magnet Release! Compared to what your Hidden Sand Village developed, this is the true, complete Magnet Release!"
Vegapunk glanced at her, nodded with satisfaction, and explained to Pakura.
The so-called Magnet Release Ninjutsu developed in the Hidden Sand Village was more of a variation of Sand Control Techniques than Magnet Release. Even the mixed Chakra was Wind and Earth, without involving any Lightning-natured Chakra.
This so-called Magnet Release could only manipulate specific metals and didn't involve magnetic fields at all.
To put it bluntly, the difference was like that between Magneto and a 'King of Iron.' Because the Third Kazekage controlled iron sand, his outward performance was closer to the essence of magnetism, allowing him to control weapons like Kunai and shuriken.
As for the Fourth Kazekage Rasa, he could only control one metal—Gold Dust. It was so weak it could almost be seen as an enhanced Sand Control Technique, with no performance regarding the magnetic side at all.
Aside from mining, Rasa's Gold Dust was far inferior to his teacher's Iron Sand Technique in every aspect. After being resurrected by Edo Tensei later, he didn't even win against the Sand Control Technique used by his own son. Even with various reasons, the weakness of Gold Dust in combat was evident.
On the other hand, in Kumogakure, it was said they developed a Magnet Release based on the fusion of Lightning and Wind Release, but the results were also mediocre. It couldn't manipulate metal sand out of thin air like the Sand Ninja; instead, it required physical contact to manipulate.
Pakura felt the magnetic field she was manipulating and felt it was as she wished, as if it were an extension of her own limbs. Without any hand seals, she could connect with the metal within range. She could even vaguely feel that she could completely change the shape of these metals and forcibly extract impure metals from the earth.
"What a powerful Bloodline Limit!" Pakura couldn't help but exclaim. Thinking about the Bloodline Limit she had just received, it was only the result of a few days of research by Vegapunk, and there was no risk in using it.
Until now, Pakura truly felt the extent of Vegapunk's research talent, which had reached an unbelievable level. At the same time, she also became convinced of Vegapunk's previous data regarding the Sea Ninja.
If Vegapunk had this ability, making Suikazan Fuguki a puppet would definitely not be difficult. Even a village Kage's prestige was worthless compared to Vegapunk's ability to mass-produce Bloodline Limits.
After all, a village Kage could be replaced at any time. With this ability to mass-produce bloodlines, Vegapunk could find a few Elite Jonin, modify them, and almost give them the strength of a Kage-level Gatekeeper. If they were already talented and strong, the improvement might be even greater.
A genius like Vegapunk was probably the only one in the Ninja World for over a thousand years. Pakura wasn't sure if his talent would be surpassed, but it was certainly unprecedented, and definitely more important than several Kage-level Ninjas.
Thinking of this, Pakura's gaze toward Vegapunk became complicated, and some ill-intentioned thoughts even began to stir in her heart.
Then Vegapunk waved his hand, and Pakura felt that this Blond Youth suddenly erupted with a magnetic field as terrifying as a hurricane or tsunami, easily suppressing her magnetic field manipulation and returning all metal objects to their places.
Gasping, Pakura looked at Vegapunk with a face full of horror. Vegapunk frowned slightly:
"What are you looking at? Where do you think your magnetic field manipulation ability came from? You should know that the Nano-polymer Artificial Magnetic Field Instrument just injected into your body was made from my own biological materials!"
In fact, this was a small sub-category of a research project Vegapunk had before—extracting Devil Fruit ability genes from Devil Fruit Users and then implanting them into humans to effectively become multiple Devil Fruit Users.
However, even so, different Devil Fruits would cause rejection reactions. Vegapunk had never truly and completely solved this problem until he came to the Naruto World. With the power of Chakra, this research finally saw some light.
