The laboratory.
The incandescent lamp on the ceiling emitted a pale white light.
In the middle of the room, a medical bed was placed, and Satoru Hyūga was lying quietly on it, with an ugly X-shaped Cursed Seal on his forehead.
Different from a regular medical bed, the bed board was covered with thin metal sheets that were perfectly assembled, looking like a large iron plate.
Metal could amplify the magnetic field he controlled, increasing the probability of success for this surgery.
Even though the increase was quite limited, Satoru Hyūga didn't want to give up any chance. If he failed, he would most likely be killed by the caged bird Cursed Seal.
The original owner of this laboratory was Tsunade. Therefore, besides the experimental equipment, there were also many medical instruments, which provided a lot of help for his surgery.
In this scenario,
Satoru Hyūga suddenly remembered a science - fiction movie he watched in his past life. In *Prometheus*, the heroine, in struggle and despair, removed the alien fetus from her abdomen alone in the medical pod.
Compared with his current situation, there were quite a few resemblances.
Taking a deep breath, Satoru Hyūga cleared his mind of distractions.
The surgery he was about to perform was extremely important, and there couldn't be any errors.
Silver Magnetic fluid flowed out from his collar, ran down his neck as he lay flat, and reached around the X - shaped Cursed Seal on his forehead.
That Magnetic fluid rose up like a silver snake, and its tip split into three thin needles.
The needles slowly approached his forehead, found three spots, and pierced in beside the X - shaped Cursed Seal, gradually disappearing into the skin.
Satoru Hyūga silently gritted his teeth, not allowing himself to make any strange sounds to prevent any deviation during the surgery.
The thin needles pierced through the skin and gradually penetrated the skull. The silver Magnetic fluid flowed into Satoru Hyūga's skull along the needles like an injected liquid.
As soon as these Magnetic fluid particles entered Satoru Hyūga's body, they seemed to come alive and immediately moved towards several parts with a clear division of tasks.
The diameter of the Magnetic fluid particles ranged from 1 nanometer to 10 nanometers. The diameter of regular cells was mostly in the micrometer range, far larger than 1 nanometer.
So the Magnetic fluid flowed smoothly, like tiny nanobots swimming in Satoru Hyūga's blood.
Satoru Hyūga concentrated all his mind and energy to control it.
This kind of precise Electromagnetic Force operation was the first time he had attempted since he awakened his ability.
Fortunately, the operating range was very small, only focused on the forehead area, so it didn't exhaust him too much.
The first step was completed, and then came the second step.
Satoru Hyūga took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes.
These eyes were no longer useful. The battlefield was inside his body.
The Electromagnetic Force interfered with the electrical signals in the skull, obstructing the signal transmission of the optic nerve.
His eyes seemed to vanish from his body, and he could no longer sense them.
The world completely turned into darkness, and not a single ray of light could penetrate.
Satoru Hyūga's face remained calm as he steadily controlled the operation.
Neural electrical signals are electrical impulses generated by the flow of ions. Since electricity and magnetism are closely related, Satoru Hyūga's Electromagnetic Force can also affect neural electrical signals.
Although his current level does not allow for overly complex operations, he can still block the conduction of the optic nerve and temporarily isolate the eyes from the body's nervous system.
As he expected.
The moment the neural transmission of the Byakugan was blocked, the Cursed Seal on his forehead began to burn hot.
A violent chakra escaped from the location of the Cursed Seal and rushed towards the Byakugan.
The caged bird was activated.
There are two ways to trigger the caged bird. One is for the main family to actively trigger it, choosing to punish or directly destroy the Byakugan.
The second is passive activation. When it detects that the Byakugan has been removed from the body, the caged bird will be triggered, destroying the Byakugan and the brain of the branch family.
Satoru Hyūga's goal was to make the caged bird Cursed Seal misjudge that the Byakugan had been removed by blocking the conduction of the optic nerve signals, thus passively activating the caged bird.
Step two was completed.
Next was step three, which was also the most important one.
Satoru Hyūga was extremely cautious. There could be no mistakes in this step.
Most of the 32% death probability he calculated occurred in this step.
The violent chakra of the caged bird raged under his forehead, like a prehistoric beast that had just awakened, trying to destroy everything around it.
Satoru Hyūga was well-prepared.
The nano - robots he injected earlier transformed into loyal protectors and split into ryo groups. One part covered the optic nerve and the eyeball of the Byakugan, while the other part flowed towards the cerebral cortex.
Like silver armor, it merged with Satoru Hyūga's internal chakra and blocked the violent invasion of the caged bird.
"So close," Satoru Hyūga thought to himself, secretly relieved when he found that the caged bird had not broken through the Magnetic fluid protective layer.
Blocking the caged bird in this way was the best method he came up with after multiple experimental calculations. However, after all, it was just a concept. He wasn't entirely sure if it would work.
The diameter of the human optic nerve is about 100 nanometers, and brain cells are even larger. So the nano-level Magnetic fluid protection didn't make Satoru Hyūga feel too uncomfortable.
The caged bird had been activated, but it couldn't attack the eyeball and the brain, thus transforming into a strange state.
Like a beast that found its prey disappeared into thin air, it could only vent its anger helplessly and waste its physical strength in vain.
This was the aim of step three.
By exploiting the operating mechanism of the caged bird, a glitch was created, causing it to enter a special downtime state.
In this state, the caged bird, which couldn't find its target but was still in an activated state, could only continuously consume chakra.
The reason Satoru Hyūga was able to formulate such a strategy was that he had figured out the underlying logic of the caged bird through continuous experiments, and then made a slight change to it, causing a glitch.
As long as there was a glitch, no matter how indestructible the Cursed Seal was, there was a chance of destroying it!
Step four.
It's also the last step, which is quite simple.
Wait till the caged bird's chakra is almost used up, and then start the stripping operation.
Maybe the Hyūga clan's ancestors never thought, when they developed the caged bird Cursed Seal, that someone would use a glitch to keep the Cursed Seal in a continuously activated state with a lost target.
So there isn't much chakra in the Cursed Seal.
Before long, the raging chakra lost its punch.
The fierce prehistoric beast then turned into a listless kitten.
Satoru Hyūga was overjoyed and knew that the opportunity had come.
The Magnetic fluid particles remaining in the blood transformed into loyal nano - robots again, taking on the important task of stripping the Cursed Seal attached to the optic nerve and the brain.
At this moment, the caged bird was at the end of its tether and had lost the ability to resist.
It could only be at Satoru Hyūga's mercy.
Soon.
The three syringes that had pierced his forehead began to be pulled out, and the visible black fluid flowed out along the needle holes.
I don't know how much time had passed.
Satoru Hyūga opened his eyes.
His pair of Byakugan was pure white and Mugino, shining with a surprised light.
"Success! I've successfully stripped the caged bird Cursed Seal from my body!"
