Chapter 112 Heian Corporation's New Equipment
Chapter 112 Heian Corporation's New Equipment
A training ground of the Konoha Police Department.
This place was originally used to test the strength of Earth Release defenses, and the walls and ground have undergone special reinforcement. But today, the atmosphere here is exceptionally solemn, even carrying a sense of reverence.
A dozen or so elite Uchiha warriors in dark blue uniforms formed a semicircle, their eyes fixed intently on the ten black boxes in the center of the arena.
"Glug."
Someone swallowed, the sound unusually loud in the quiet basement.
"Cough cough."
Fugaku Uchiha stood at the very front, his hands behind his back, trying to maintain the dignity of a captain, but his eyes, which kept glancing at the box, betrayed the restlessness in his heart.
"Che, can we begin?" Fugaku asked. "Everyone is waiting to see this revolutionary equipment."
"Of course, senior."
Nishikawa Tetsu held the instruction manual in his hand, looking helplessly at the group of Uchiha uncles who seemed like children waiting for candy.
"However, before opening the box, I must emphasize three safety rules."
"First, pointing your gun at your teammates is strictly prohibited, even as a joke, unless you want to change teammates."
"Second, it is strictly forbidden to pull the trigger before the battery is fully charged. Doing so will only make you look like an idiot holding a fire poker."
"Third, and most importantly..."
Nishikawa Tetsu pointed to a pile of heavy-looking shields and goggles behind him.
"You must wear full protective gear during the test. I know it's not cool, it even makes you look a bit like a turtle, but it's necessary for your safety."
"cut……"
A few disdainful snorts came from the crowd. Wearing those bulky goggles, don't they have any dignity?
"Anyone have a problem with this?" Fugaku coldly surveyed the crowd.
Everyone stand at attention: "No!"
"Great, let's unbox it!"
At Fugaku's command, all ten boxes were opened simultaneously.
The streamlined, silver-gray gun body gleamed under the lights, and at that moment, a collective gasp filled the training ground.
"Wow! Is this the legendary electromagnetic railgun?"
"So cool! This design! This quality!"
"There really are no chakra threads? How do you use this thing?"
As the head of the criminal investigation department, Uchiha Hachimoku naturally took the first shot.
He put on white gloves and stroked the gun like a lover, his eyes glazed over.
"This heavy weight...that's the feeling of power."
"Um... Senior Yashiro," Minato reminded him from the side, "you're holding it upside down. That's the stock, this is the muzzle."
"..."
Yashiro calmly turned the gun around, thinking, "As long as I'm not embarrassed, it's others who will be." He continued, "Of course I know, I'm just checking the safety of the stock."
"Alright, stop posing." Nishikawa Tetsu pointed to the target in the distance. "Who wants to fire the first shot?"
"I'll do it!" Yashiro said without hesitation.
Following the instructions, he inserted the battery into the slot and then struck what he thought was a very cool pose.
"etc!"
Nishikawa Tetsu suddenly shouted to stop, then rushed over and forcibly put a pair of pink noise-canceling earmuffs on Yashiro's head—he had just grabbed them without paying attention to the color.
Yashiro froze completely.
Wearing a dark blue police uniform, with a cold expression, holding a futuristic electromagnetic cannon in his hand, but with pink earmuffs on his head.
"Pfft..." Someone in the crowd couldn't help but chuckle.
Fugaku suddenly turned around, and the man immediately looked up at the ceiling to count the light bulbs.
"Test begins! Target: Thickened earthflow wall 50 meters ahead!"
Yashiro took a deep breath. Although the pink earmuffs on his head made him want to die, the weapon in his hand restored his confidence.
"Charge!"
"Buzz—"
The gun glowed blue.
The Eighth Generation's eyes narrowed, his three-tomoe Sharingan activated, and he locked onto a fly on the earthen wall.
"Feel the rage of the Uchiha! Lightning Release: Railgun!"
He even childishly shouted out the name that Nishikawa Tetsu had given to the prototype.
"boom!!!"
A loud bang.
The thick earthwork wall, which was said to be able to defend against B-rank ninjutsu, was instantly turned into a cloud of flying yellow dust.
Not only that, the light's momentum hadn't diminished, and it slammed into the reinforced wall behind it, blasting a crater, sending debris flying, and causing the entire basement to shake.
"Cough cough cough!"
Amidst the smoke and dust, everyone coughed, their faces covered in soot.
"This...this power..."
Yashiro took off his pink earmuffs, stared blankly at the large crater, and then looked at the gun in his hand.
"I only tapped it lightly, and I only used the standard setting..."
The mass-produced model is divided into two modes, standard and overload, to take into account the usage scenarios. The standard mode has only 75% power but can be used eight times, while the overload mode has 100% power but can only be used five times.
Fugaku walked to the wall, looked at the hole through which even the underground water pipes were exposed, and sighed.
"Che..."
Fugaku turned his head; the power was still quite great.
"If we were catching a criminal in the village, I mean if... Yashiro fired a shot at a house..."
Nishikawa Tetsu walked over with a calculator, glanced at the large crater, and added insult to injury with a blank expression:
"So the result is that the criminal dies, the house collapses, and even the neighbor who is eating next door will be taken away along with him."
"This kind of penetrating power cannot be used as a weapon for maintaining order."
Nishikawa Tetsu sighed:
"Simply put, this thing is overkill. If we use it in a village, we'll pay far more in damages than we catch the criminals."
"..."
The entire room fell silent.
The Uchiha elites looked at the electromagnetic cannon in their hands and suddenly felt it was getting too hot.
This isn't police equipment; it looks like it's for demolition work!
"What should we do then?"
Yashiro touched the gun with some reluctance: "Is it just going to sit here collecting dust? This is a good piece of equipment!"
"Of course we can't let it sit idle; the police department has invested a lot of money in this."
Fugaku had an idea from the very beginning when he watched Nishikawa Tetsu's demonstration.
Since we can't use it in the village, let's use it in places where we don't need to worry about causing damage!
"This entire batch of weapons will be allocated to Heian Corporation!"
With a wave of his hand, Fugaku made a decision.
"That is, our field security department!"
"Huh?" Yashiro was taken aback.
Fugaku's eyes sharpened.
"There aren't that many bottles and jars outside the village. When you encounter bandits, rogue ninjas, or ninjas from enemy countries, you don't need to talk about civilized law enforcement."
"Anyone who dares to rob our clients, we'll take them out from a distance!"
Upon hearing this, Nishikawa Tetsu smiled.
"Your senior is wise."
"In the village, we use batons to maintain order, and we believe in winning people over with virtue."
"Once we leave the village, we'll defend our reputation with electromagnetic cannons, and the key is—physical salvation."
"and……"
Nishikawa Tetsu pointed to the ten guns.
"If clients see our security personnel carrying these expensive-looking weapons, they'll feel that the high escort fee is well worth it."
"That's the magic of marketing."
"That makes sense!"
Yashiro's eyes lit up, and his previous disappointment vanished.
"Shouldn't we give this weapon a catchy name?"
"Let's call it Super Lightning Release: Blue Power Enhanced Beam," Minato suggested with a smile. Nobody knows how to name things better than me.
Uchiha Yatsuhoku's vision went black, and he hurriedly said, "The Railgun is fine as it is. I think we shouldn't change it!"
Everyone was speechless. Minato, Minato, your talent for naming things is truly unmatched.
Fugaku nodded.
"However, the appearance still needs to be changed."
He pointed at the silver-gray gun barrel, still not satisfied.
"Since it's for Heian Corporation, and it's our brand, it has to reflect the style of the police department."
"Painted red! Add black flame patterns, and the police department's logo!"
Nishikawa Tetsu rubbed his temples, looking at the Uchiha group whose aesthetic sense was gradually going astray.
"The paint job is fine, just pay more."
……
That afternoon, in front of the police department building.
Ten burly elite soldiers from Heian Corporation, dressed in specially made black tactical vests and carrying newly painted red and black electromagnetic cannons on their backs, stood in neat formation.
That was the first guard unit of "Heian Corporation" equipped with electromagnetic cannons.
Although they hadn't gone on a mission yet, the sheer cold aura emanating from their equipment was enough to make the passing merchants' eyes light up.
"Hey, look at that thing! I heard it's new equipment for the police department!"
"That pipe is so thick, it must be very powerful!"
"Next time I hire a client, I definitely want to choose this team. They're so cool and look incredibly strong!"
Standing at the second-floor window, Fugaku looked down at the pairs of eyes filled with greed for money and finally smiled with satisfaction.
Fugaku stroked his chin.
"It's a bit of a shame we can't use it in the village, but it would be nice if we could use it outside the village..."
"That's a great deal!"
……
root base.
"What? You mean Fugaku Uchiha gave all of the first batch of electromagnetic cannons to his Heian Corporation?" Danzo asked with a dark expression.
The Root ninja who delivered the message nodded: "Yes, Lord Danzo, many people saw it today; they were holding electromagnetic cannons."
"What a waste! What a waste! Go and find a way to get the blueprints for the electromagnetic railgun back to me."
Danzo never expected that such a powerful weapon would not be kept as a secret weapon for his family, but instead would be widely publicized to the Heian Corporation.
