"Look at me — how could a handsome young lad like me possibly be a transformed turtle?" Aoi muttered to himself, curling his lip.
Deidara, looking rather interested, walked over as well. "Brat, that jutsu you were using just now... it looked quite intriguing!"
He noticed it?
Aoi narrowed his eyes. This is troublesome. If he could help it, he really didn't want to fight members of the Akatsuki.
With their level of power, he couldn't end the fight quickly. But if it dragged on, Kakashi, Naruto, and the Three-Tails would all get involved — there were just too many variables...
Besides, neither Deidara nor Tobi — who was actually Obito in disguise — were weaklings. If it came down to an all-out brawl, it was far from certain who would win.
Seeing that Aoi remained silent, Deidara didn't press the matter further. He scoffed dismissively.
"I just saw a hint of artistic potential in your technique, that's all. If you don't want to talk about it, fine by me!"
For Deidara, nothing mattered but art. As for the Akatsuki? Until the day he died, he honestly believed it was just a gathering place for young artists...
Aoi believed about three-tenths of what Deidara said, but he still wanted nothing to do with the organization.
This short span of the storyline wasn't long enough for him to gain any real benefit from them...
If I stayed here for eight or ten years before going back to the main world... Tsunade would have grown from a child into a young woman by then.
Would I end up raising her, or would she end up raising me?
Just the thought made Aoi shake his head repeatedly...
Seeing this, Deidara shook his head in disdain and turned to leave. But Tobi leaned right in front of Aoi, staring intently at his face for a long time.
After a while...
"Okay! I guess you really aren't the Three-Tails in disguise, huh?" Tobi nodded solemnly, then scrambled after Deidara, yelling loudly all the way.
Aoi ground his teeth in frustration. I know Obito has to play the fool, but this level of stupidity is simply beyond human limits...
"Oh right! And one more thing..."
Tobi suddenly turned back around.
"I don't know why you're trying to shape lightning into a ring. But... why don't you just use a metal ring to hold the lightning in place?"
"A metal ring?!
It was like a bolt of lightning struck right through Aoi's mind. In that instant, everything clicked into place. The moment he understood, he almost slapped himself in the face...
"I am such an idiot!"
He had been in this world for too long; he had completely forgotten basic knowledge from Earth, and had to be reminded by that fool Obito of all people!
Aoi pulled out several gold ingots, squeezed and molded them into closed rings, and gripped them all tightly in his palm...
Crackle! Zap!
The lightning was instantly trapped and constrained within the metal rings, forming perfect, closed loops. Powerful electromagnetic force began to build up and swirl inside.
Holding this crude but incredibly expensive induction coil, Aoi quickly took out a coin and placed it inside the ring.
The coil was ready. The lightning was ready. The coin was ready...
"The lightning dancing at your fingertips is the eternal faith of my life!" Aoi roared as he flicked the coin out of the coil.
"Railgun — The Super Electromagnetic Cannon!"
BOOM!
A terrifying beam of electricity shot forth like the spear of the Thunder God. Every blade of grass, every clod of dirt in its path was instantly reduced to ash.
Even the air itself was ionized, turning a blazing orange.
Stretching nearly a hundred meters long, it destroyed everything in its path...
> Super Electromagnetic Cannon (Imitation): Rank A+ Ninjutsu. Possesses terrifying power exceeding the speed of sound. Wherever it passes, all things bow before the lightning!
