Chapter 5 - Enticing Offer

And, he planned to do it and test how good it would be. After all, different materials should create a different kind of energy, right?

He thought to himself as he swept his hand.

All of those bullets hovering in the mid-air suddenly flew back at an extraordinary speed.

Splash! Splash! Splash! Splash!

Some of them had their heads pierced, while others had their bodies pierced.

He wasn't aiming accurately, but at least half of them were dead.

At this moment, he realized a problem.

These souls wouldn't simply enter his dimension. He needed to pull these souls into his dimension.

He couldn't go around everywhere, pulling the souls into his dimensions. It would be too much trouble.

'Hmm! I need to do something about that. For now, let's just deal with them.'

He turned his purple energy into a ball and threw it towards those remaining soldiers and doctors.

Boom!

The ball of energy exploded, leading to a huge explosion that shook the very base.

'Fortunately, I controlled that energy. Otherwise, this whole base would've been gone.'

He thought to himself and started pulling those dead souls into his hands.

Without much thought, he opened the portal to his dimension and threw them.

Then, he checked every single open in this base and opened their doors. Many of them were either unconscious or in a certain pain.

Most importantly, their bodies were modified to an inhuman state.

"This is horrible, isn't it?"

He muttered as he released his purple energy at a very high level. In an instant, the entire base was covered with his purple energy.

He destroyed those cuffs and the X-gene suppressor before pulling them out.

He collected them in one place and used his telekinesis to lift them before walking off the base.

He looked around but didn't see any reinforcement. It proved that this place was quite far away from normal settlements.

He walked away holding those people before turning around.

He raised his palm, and the purple energy started gathering at his palm.

'Can I do this? I mean, Kurama has already tried it. So, I should be able to do it, right?'

He thought to himself before gathering the purple energy in a spinning motion. The strands of purple energy started spinning in multiple directions.

The faster it spun, the greater the pressure it released.

When it reached a certain point, even Adam started feeling the tension in his hand.

He was worried this ball of energy would explode in his palm.

So, he coated himself with purple energy, flew those mutants away, and continued condensing a spinning ball of Chakra.

Surprisingly, it didn't explode in his palm.

'So, my control over Chakra is quite good?'

He thought to himself before condensing a spiraling ring around the dark purple ball of Chakra.

He was surprised to find that the ring wasn't purple but white.

'So, this is the influence of my thoughts. Energy Manipulation allows me to control energy to such an extent, without any restrictions.'

Thinking about it, he threw the ball of purple Chakra and a white ring towards the base.

[Spiralling Ring]

Boom!

The moment the Spiraling Ring collided with the building, it led to one of the biggest explosions he had ever seen.

It wasn't comparable to a nuclear bomb, but it was still astonishing power.

Even the shockwaves kept rushing towards him at an extreme pace. The high temperature, debris, and even the wave of energy.

They all rushed towards him at an extreme speed.

Adam had to rely on his telekinesis to block the upcoming wave. But it was quite heavy.

To the point where he started sweating from his forehead.

If he hadn't improved his strength previously, he wouldn't have been able to support this much pressure.

"Wow! That was quite a power."

Ding! Ding! Dang! Dong!

That debris, especially metals, kept falling in front of him. As the shockwave slowly died down, he turned around.

He was surprised to find two people staring at him with wide eyes. Unlike others, they were awake and saw what Adam did.

Still, they didn't look scared.

"Hello!"

Adam waved his hand and greeted them with a smile. He slowly put them down using his Telekinesis.

"Ahh, hello! Thank you for saving us."

One of them reacted quickly. He was a tall male with rock skin.

"Don't mind it! So, what's your plan? I have destroyed the base, but they should be sending more of their people."

Adam spoke.

Hearing that, the other one shivered in fear. This one was a young girl with blond hair, but both of her legs had been changed into a bird's legs.

And, she also had wings behind her back, though her wings seemed permanent.

She didn't cry, but her expression was filled with disappointment as she spoke.

"With my appearance, there is nowhere I can go."

Adam wasn't idiot enough to tell her to ignore others and live a normal life. That was impossible.

But taking her away was also impossible.

"By the way, I haven't asked your name. My name is Adam."

"I go by Boris." The man replied.

"My name is Illena." The girl introduced herself.

"You are quite a powerful mutant. How can you be caught up by them?" The man asked.

"An interesting story that I don't like to share. But I can tell you something that will help you." Adam replied.

"Oh!"

Both of them got curious, but before he answered them, he asked them about their life.

And so, their conversation began as they walked away from the destroyed base.

From their conversation, Adam understood more about them.

Boris was a restaurant worker who had kept his mutant ability secret for a long time.

But one day, he found himself facing five thugs. Normally, he would've been beaten, but as someone with powers, he couldn't control himself.

In the process, he ended up killing two of them while severely injuring the other two.

The last one managed to run away as fast as he could, calling the cops.

Not only did he surrender, but he also forced Boris to surrender until his innocence was proven.

But the police took him in a van and somehow brought him to this base six months ago.

From then on, they kept experimenting on his powers, trying to mutate them further.

Originally, he could only shape the ground into something, but because of those experiments, his body literally turned into rock.

Due to his power, he managed to shape himself into a proper humanoid rocky figure.

But it didn't change the fact that he was experimented on until he turned into a piece of rock.

On the other hand, Illena's situation was quite different. She was caught just two months ago.

Unlike Boris, her ability gave her wings. She became curious and tried to fly with her wings.

But after flying high, she almost ran into planes and lost control of her ability.

She crashed so hard that her legs broke. She was taken to the hospital, where it was found that she could no longer walk.

Some people came and gave her a promise of walking again and took her to this place.

And, this was where they attached the bird's legs to her feet. This wasn't a normal bird. It was also an experimental mutant's leg that had died.

Listening to their sad stories, Adam didn't know how to comfort them. So, he directly revealed his purpose.

"My name is Adam Grant. My powers make me stronger and faster than normal humans."

He said and punched the nearby tree, breaking it in half.

Crack!

As the tree fell, Illena and Boris felt amazed. This was a sheer strength displayed by Adam.

He wasn't even using the purple energy they saw before, nor was he using telekinesis.

"But what about your other powers? Are they?"

Boris asked.

He wanted to say experiments, but he believed Adam would understand.

And, Adam certainly did understand. He shook his head and replied.

"This is my secret, but I can tell you. In fact, I can help you recover as well."

Before they could get the same experimental vibes, Adam summoned two scrolls made by Kurama and said.

"I am connected to a Great Being who rules over the Naruto Universe. His name is Kurama."

"During the experiments, I was praying to all kinds of gods, and my prayer was heard by the Great Lord Kurama."

"Of course, it is also due to my affinity towards his powers that he bestowed the ability to control this energy alongside other multitude of other abilities."

"In return, I have become his spokesperson. If you sign this contract, your soul will belong to him."

"In return, he will not only help you recover to normal. But you will also gain a small boost to your current abilities."

"And, if you decided to become his spokesperson, you can slowly gain abilities like mine."

"So, what do you think?"
