"Mmm..."
Returning from his training mission, Aoi rubbed his palm with a strange expression on his face. The power of the Railgun had far exceeded his expectations.
Although it was only ranked as an A‑Class technique, it had unleashed destructive force on the level of a forbidden S‑Class jutsu...
But when he thought about it carefully, it actually made sense.
In the world of Naruto, even though the power system was often completely unscientific, there were still aspects that followed the laws of nature and physics.
Take the Raikage's Hell Stab: Four‑Finger Pierce, for example!
The fewer fingers used, the smaller the contact area, and the greater the penetrating power.
Following the same principle, the Railgun not only had an incredibly small point of impact, but it also used a coin — which has far better conductivity than the human body — as the projectile...
Add to that the terrifying propulsive force of electromagnetism!
It was no exaggeration that it displayed destructive power far beyond a standard A‑Class jutsu.
However, what was troubling Aoi wasn't the overwhelming power. It was the golden coil itself...
"Where the hell is my gold?!"
His palms were empty. The five‑pound golden coil had vanished into thin air...
Actually, this wasn't the first time the coil had disappeared. The very first time he used the Railgun, the gold had gone missing just as mysteriously.
Back then, Aoi had simply assumed he had lost it in the heat of the moment. He had also been in a hurry to leave the scene, so he hadn't stuck around to investigate.
But looking at it now, things were probably not that simple...
"System, be honest with me — did you swallow my gold?!"
The System was his number one suspect. It was greedy, unfathomable, and never left his side.
By every measure, the System had both the means and the motive to commit the crime...
Ding. Host, please do not suspect this System. The reply came with absolute seriousness. Every point consumed by this System has been approved by the Host.
"Then where did my gold go?!"
Ding. The electromagnetic force generated by the Super Electromagnetic Cannon is simply too powerful. The gold was vaporized by the lightning‑nature chakra!
The explanation was logical and well‑reasoned, leaving Aoi speechless.
Turns out, the Naruto world does follow the laws of science!
"So you mean..." Aoi flicked his fingers in a daze, "...every time I flick my finger like that, five pounds of gold just disappear?"
"Correct."
Aoi fell silent. If you converted five pounds of gold into Chinese currency, that was roughly one million. And on top of that, gold resources were extremely scarce in the Naruto world...
In the blink of an eye, tens of millions of taels gone up in smoke!
Whether or not the enemy died from the blast, Aoi didn't know. But his wallet was definitely dead...
He had finally created a powerful original jutsu: short cooldown time, fire as long as you have a coin; immense attack power, at least comparable to the Third Raikage's Three‑Finger Pierce; low chakra consumption — using it five times cost the same as one use of his Serpent Lightning Cutter...
By every standard, the Super Electromagnetic Cannon was practically a perfect technique. But there was one single flaw that drove Aoi to despair...
It was just too damn expensive!
"Is there really nothing that can replace gold?"
Aoi decided to channel the spirit of Edison inventing the lightbulb — he would test it a thousand and one times if he had to.
But as he experimented, Aoi realized...
Aside from gold, every other material he tried either had such poor conductivity that he couldn't even form a closed electric ring, or was simply too soft and fell apart before it could even be fired...
It was too hard!
Worse yet, Aoi went through the entire System Shop, searching every category, but couldn't find a single suitable item...
"System, you are absolutely useless."
Ding. This System has cataloged every element, item, and mission from every anime ever created.
The System's voice remained perfectly flat and emotionless. The problem is that your weapon design is too bizarre. You could search through every fictional world ever created...
"...And you won't find anyone else who uses an electromagnetic induction coil as a weapon!"
