For example, if I had wishes from a genie and none of them could defy the laws of nature, what material would I use to protect myself? A carbon nanotube sphere or something?

    carbon nano tube is the material. however in the field of state-of-the-art military tech, ceramic plates offer the best protection today from projectile weapons.
    in the field of space, aerogel offer the best thermal protection, if someone came after you with a flame thrower
    in the field of electronics, a plasma shield or some kind of electromagnetic field can protect your from being seen by electronics, harmed by radiation, and will stop bullets, fire, and other physical harm soon.

    so the best shield there is isn’t actually a material, but energy.

    as for materials, ceramic plates and aerogel will be sufficient to protect you from most hazards.
