059 Jounin Exam, Can Your Magnet Surpass Light?

"It's so scary, I was almost cut in half."

Simu looked at the huge shuriken that was as tall as a person in front of him, and said with lingering fear.

"Sure enough, all of you Kekkei Genkai ninjas are as strong as monsters." 

Hearing this, the surrounding Kekkei Genkai ninjas—Troy, Uchiha Fugaku, Mikoto, and Uchiha Takaki —fell silent.

Is this guy for real? they thought.

Monsters? Coming from someone who just caught deadly shurikens with his fingers like they were paper?

Mikoto, standing next to Simu, suddenly found him irritating again.

Minato gave a small, wry smile—not because Simu had stolen the spotlight, but because this guy had a talent for making enemies with his words.

Analyzing the situation, he sees Troy's ability to manipulate steel. If that's his strength, then destroying his weapons should weaken him.

With that thought, Simu calmly tightened his grip, his palm now cloaked in Armament Haki.

A sharp crack echoed in the air as the shurikens, gripped between Simu's fingers, began to fracture. 

Thin, jagged slits appeared along their edges, shocking everyone present.

Cracks spread across the shuriken like a spiderweb, quickly covering its entire surface.

Click.

The special weapon Troy was known for shattered into countless pieces under the effortless grip of Simu's fingers.

"Is that what you call scary?" 

Mikoto glanced at the debris and couldn't help but mutter

Troy's expression darkened, his frustration boiling over. "Are you mocking me?" he growled, forming hand seals with lightning speed.

Suddenly, Simu's confident demeanor shifted, and his face grew serious.

Hastily picked up Mikoto and got out of the way.

All the debris on the snow flew up in an instant, heading straight for Simu.

Simu, who was holding Mikoto, frowned.

"Can you catch the light?"

The golden flash shuttled across the battlefield, and quickly pulled out a long distance.

Seeing that the shuriken fragments did not continue to chase, Simu roughly estimated the distance.

"Five hundred meters?" Simu muttered, confirming the distance. 

This seemed to be the range of the Magnet Jutsu's effect. 

He glanced to the side and spotted a snow bear charging toward the battlefield, Kushina riding on its back. 

Without hesitation, Simu gently set Mikoto down. 

"This is a safe spot. Stay here—I'll head back." 

"Ah... okay," Mikoto replied, nodding in confusion. 

In an instant, Simu was back on the battlefield. 

The entire exchange lasted only a few seconds. 

Before the fragments Troy had sent after him could return, Simu appeared right in front of Troy again. 

Troy threw another batch of regular shurikens. 

These shurikens, magnetized by him, could relentlessly track their target—pursuing until the enemy died! 

Once more, Simu found himself surrounded. 

Behind him, countless fragments from the two shattered giant shurikens closed in. 

Ahead, dozens of magnetized shurikens tracking him down. 

The two waves of attacks were like swarms of sardines in the Atlantic Ocean—dense and unpredictable.

For most, escaping this would be nearly impossible.

But not for Simu.

His Observation Haki allowed him to track every shard and shuriken.

As if he was drunk, his body swayed slightly.

With Observation Haki at the level of a Marine Admiral, and the top six styles of [Paper Arts] at his command, 

Simu easily avoided every attack—not even a hair was touched. 

Hundreds of strikes flew past him, narrowly missing. 

The snow beneath him exploded with each hit, sending large flakes flying. 

To maintain the pressure, Troy relentlessly directed the fragments at Simu. 

The smoke screen grew thicker, creating a massive snow pit. 

Everyone in the Cloud Shinobi camp watched, fixed by the snowstorm. 

As for Minato...

He chuckled. If only Simu could be hurt by such an attack.

He knew the word "Simu" upside down!

Having been teammates with Simu for over a year, Minato knew his style too well.

Sure enough, as the white smoke cleared, Simu stood calmly with his hands still in his pockets, as if he hadn't moved at all.

His justice coat fluttered slowly in the wind.

"What a terrible offensive."

With that, he landed and jumped out of the snow pit.

"Is your attack over?" 

Seeing Simu's dismissive attitude, Troy finally snapped. 

"Of course not, you bastard! How long are you going to look down on us?" 

He raised his hands, and every weapon nearby was aimed at Simu. 

Even Minato's custom-made kunai seemed ready to strike. 

Thankfully, Minato held it back. 

"Die!" Troy roared, unleashing all his Chakra into the attack. 

Thousands of weapons, drawn in by the magnetism around Simu, flew toward him. 

Simu tilted his head slightly, unfazed. 

"Can you move faster than light?" 

Simu's body was enveloped in a brilliant golden light. 

The moment the large-scale attack hit, Simu vanished without a trace. 

Before they could even react, Simu was standing in front of Troy, his foot raised. 

"Have you ever been kicked by the speed of light?" 

Troy's eyes widened in panic, his pupils dilated and glowing with the same golden light.
