[Hokage] Secrets of the Fathers [Fourth Generation Center]

Humans are indeed untrustworthy because humans are always lying.

In the middle of November of Konoha 62, half a month after Namikaze Minato returned to Konoha, Yakushi Kabuto also wrote a fifteen-day report, a one-a-day report, about Orochimaru.

When he first heard that Orochimaru was still alive, Kabuto was not as excited as everyone else, it was Orochimaru.He also had the idea of ​​​​deffecting and leaving Konoha to seek refuge. Ninjas who only know how to kill and plot will never understand how talented Orochimaru really is.Even if Golden Flash lives another 100 years and really rules the world, the world will not fundamentally change because of him.But Orochimaru is different.It's a pity that that person is too obsessed with life and has little interest in changing the world.

But in the end, Kabuto still couldn't spare Konoha's large amount of research funds, and if he just said what he wanted, ninjas would give him the convenience he could find all over the world.As well as Uchiha Obito and Uzumaki Karin.Kabuto detected Senju Hashirama cells from Obito's body that can coexist peacefully with ordinary people.Subtle similarities between the skin tissue and the primary cells of Aroma were also discovered.

Humans are essentially the same as humans, and even have only one cell wall less than plants.However, the first-generation cells have different division methods. They can divide quickly when refining chakra and do not decay and die after reaching a certain number of times like ordinary cells. However, the powerful Hashirama cells usually kill people while bringing power.Koro's skin cells are ordinary at first glance. Once they are stimulated by the outside world, such as being bitten, they will continue to divide and proliferate like Hashirama's cells, quickly producing a large amount of chakra and directly replenishing it to the body of the person who bit him through the oral mucosa. inside.Of course, the disadvantage is that it is not strong enough. If you are seriously injured, you have to put the fragrant phosphorus into the pot and skin it.

In short, Senju and Uzumaki are distant relatives, and it is not impossible that the cells of Senju Hashirama and Uzumaki Kousa can be combined.Kabuto vaguely felt that as long as he could combine the advantages of the two, he might be able to find a way to mass-produce Yamato.That's something Orochimaru didn't even do.

Kabuto also has the conditions to continue his research.As the head of Konoha's medical system and research institute, it is not difficult to apply to the Hokage for some of the living remains of the first generation.Phosphorus skin is better to get.But no matter how he tried, the first-generation cells still couldn't coexist peacefully with the Uchiha cells like they did in Obito's body.Although the cells of aromatic phosphorus will not die due to implantation of primary cells, they will be eaten and assimilated.

This made Kabuto anxious.The experimental funds spent did not matter, Konoha never asked him when he must succeed.But the precious living specimen Uchiha Obito has a lifespan.

Of course, the half of the body repaired by the first-generation cells will not be easily affected.But Obito himself has a problem with Uchiha.No matter how successful the repair is, it is still a repair. Uchiha Obito cannot become Senju Hashirama no matter how much he repairs.Even the real Senju Hashirama would have died of illness if he should have.

Chakra cannot cure diseases, but can cause them. The more powerful the blood is, the harder it is to escape.

Naturally, scientific research involves facing failure again and again.Even though Kabuto was helpless, he never lost his confidence to surpass Orochimaru.When Konoha suddenly announced that the rebellious ninja Orochimaru was one of his own, Kabuto just thought of giving it another try until he was sure that Orochimaru's return to Konoha was not a trap by Konoha for the rebellious ninja.

However, on November 62, Konoha 11, after the dust had settled, Orochimaru's elbow was healed and it was in pain. The Hokage gave him a copy of the experimental record and Yakushi Kabuto was finally convinced again.Because in that experiment record, Orochimaru easily solved the problem that Kabuto couldn't solve.Yes, Orochimaru has thoroughly studied the cells of the first generation, and the phosphorus originally came from Orochimaru.

Different from Kabuto's idea, Orochimaru did not choose to fuse the two types of cells and then implant them into the human body. Instead, he chose an ordinary human cell as the basis, and injected the genetic particles into the first-generation cells and the phosphorus cells at the same time. They were not chromosomes. Chromosomes determine Kabuto understood that it was the genetic particles in the chromosomes. Regardless of why Orochimaru called that particle DNA, and how he confirmed that the particle that grew like this was the genetic key he needed, Orochimaru succeeded. This allows ordinary cells to possess the genetic characteristics of both Aroma and Senju Hashirama cells, powerful and controllable cell division and calculable chakra production, and then add glucose water and shake it, and it becomes a cell that can be directly used by the human body. The absorbed chakra is a potion that can be taken orally and can replenish both red and blue colors.

Orochimaru-sama, do you play too many video games?

"In short, in the fourth generation, Orochimaru's research direction has gone a long way." Kabuto regretted choosing the latter between Orochimaru and Namikaze Minato, but this did not prevent him from understanding how great Orochimaru was. "He created a machine that can generate The perfect cells of chakra, he holds the key to unlock the mysterious treasure house of blood inheritance boundary, but he uses such great technology to create potions."

Fire Country Konoha, Hatake Old House

One afternoon, there were fallen leaves outside the window

"Yondaime-sama, did you listen to me?"

"Listen." Minato Namikaze was drowsy after not being able to wake up naturally from his nap. "Orochimaru said that the potion is definitely not as effective as a bite of real phosphorus. It can replenish chakra and physical energy without stimulating the division of one's own cells. And it accelerates wound healing, which is already more advanced than all medical scrolls and medical ninjutsu. So, can it be mass-produced?"

"Energy production, of course, you don't need to understand the principles of energy production. Just follow the example of a cat or a tiger and use a special test tube to inject ab into point c under a super high-power microscope. Any medical ninja apprentice can produce a bunch of them after a few days of training, and then put them in a petri dish for a set time. Just wait until it splits by itself. Canning will be simpler after that. You only need to add an additional feed port to the glucose solution production line, but "

"It's good to be able to produce energy. It's rare that Orochimaru didn't lie to me."

"But cells can be made according to human intentions, why should we make potions?"

"What are you doing?"

"Kakashi's optic nerve is damaged beyond repair. But now we can help him make a new one. Take one of Kakashi's cells, transform Kakashi's cells into a controlled division mode like making potion cells, and then Cultivate this cell into a complete optic nerve or even an eyeball, and this optic nerve and eyeball will be Kakashi's own new eye without rejection."

""Indeed, theoretically it is possible to make eyes and nerves.But Minato's knowledge told him that it was tens of millions of times more complicated than making a cell.Otherwise, Orochimaru wouldn't have the idea of ​​Rinnegan and White Zetsu.

"And your heart, you don't need to replace it now, maybe later. Compared with the optic nerve, the heart is just muscles and blood vessels." Dou pushed up his small glasses, "The same goes for your stomach, there is no need to cut it. Your stomach pain is because the gastric mucosa is damaged. It’s almost impossible to repair. Now we just need to make a new batch of gastric mucosal cells.”

Minato still wanted to see the potion first.

"Even" Kabuto suddenly raised his voice, "human beings are nothing more than the combination of a sperm and an egg. If we can make cells, we can make sperm and eggs. For four generations, we can even copy many Yamatos."

Yamato was shocked.

Minato let out a soft oh.

"Why didn't you react at all? You're so stupid." Kabuto predicted from the beginning that Namikaze Minato would suffer from Alzheimer's disease sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.

"I am suffering from the sequelae of the brain being deprived of oxygen for 5 minutes last time." Minato could only comfort himself. At least he was not sitting at the entrance of the village drooling, unable to recognize his son and unable to find his home. "Besides, we are discussing the mass production of potions."

"Konoha has mastered the technology to create humans"

"So" Minato admitted that he was worthy of being Orochimaru, but what Orochimaru and Kinai need is not a child who can be raised with all their heart and grow up little by little and become an independent individual, but a body that can be used to place their souls immediately, " Actually, Kabuto, since you are so interested in cell technology, you should continue to study it carefully. Orochimaru's project in the rain ninja is not wholly owned by Konoha, I also personally contributed some, so as not to delay the budget of the institute."

"That's not what I meant." Kabuto wanted to say. He still didn't understand many things. He wanted to study and do research with Orochimaru, not become the director of a beverage factory.But then the words turned around and suddenly the small lens flashed with golden light, "Sir Orochimaru, the project in the rain ninja is not about this cell technology."

"You do your own thing." Minato didn't want to make Bai Zetsu and the Rinnegan known to everyone, "First try to help me study the gastric mucosa. I really want to eat grilled chicken wings with chili sauce and a can of ice. beer."

"Okay." Kabuto responded, his mind spinning.Orochimaru gave up the promising cell technology to study other things. It must be the matter of the rain ninja that is more valuable. "I still have some things that I don't understand about mass-produced potions. I want to ask Orochimaru-sama for advice."

"Then you go."

"Please sign the exit slip."

"Ask Kakashi to sign it for you."

"Kakashi won't sign it."

"Then there's nothing I can do." Minato spread his hands. Before he went to the capital, he wanted to help Kakashi solve the matter of the Land of Rain and the Land of Yun, but Kakashi was not happy.Looking at Orochimaru's attitude of agreeing to whatever Konoha said after he was cured by Kakashi, Minato understood that he was no longer the golden-haired old fox who was cursed to die early. "On January [-]st next year, I will represent the Fire The treaties signed by the country and other countries have officially come into effect, Kakashi is the real fifth generation Hokage, and I am no longer the Hokage."

Kabuto Yakushi lowered his head silently.

"I won't report anything when I go out in the future. If someone really accuses me of being a traitor, I won't have to explain."

Kabuto Yakushi left silently, but did not go to the Hokage Tower to find Kakashi again.He stayed in Konoha back then because of his respect and fear for the Hokage, who specifically refers to the golden flash.

Minato watched Kabuto Yakushi leave and only felt melancholy, "Yamato, let Kakashi look at Kabuto, this kid is not an honest guy."

"Okay." Yamato wrote it down in a small notebook, "But Kakashi is really a little overwhelmed."

"It's enough to have a fighting force and only Kakashi obey him." Minato also thought, the future is theirs after all, whether it is good or bad depends on the children themselves.As for him, it's not important, "Hey, Yamato, where is your sister Kinai?"

"" Yamato looked around carefully, "I'm sorry, sir, I can't see ghosts."

Minato sighed, when he first fell ill, when he woke up, Kinai would definitely be by his side, and Naruto wouldn't be far away.But his physical condition is stable now. As long as he doesn't seek death, the most he will feel is stomach discomfort after eating.So when my son grew up, he still became a jounin. The jinchuriki couldn't leave the village and had some tasks, so he couldn't hang around his father all day long.The same goes for his wife. Kinai and Jiraiya-sensei hate each other, but his wife and teacher are actually the type who love freedom and can’t rest at all.

At first, he just asked Kinai to spy on Mikoto. Although Minato hadn't thought anything was wrong yet, there must be something wrong with Mikoto. There was no one better suited than a ghost to catch troublemakers.But after following her for a few days, Kinai said that Mikoto didn't see any problems except that she easily lost control of her emotions when she thought of Fugaku.The people under ANBU surveillance also said the same thing. Kakashi even used the example of Kinai's state when he died, and there was a limit to scolding him for being neurotic.That's right, you, Namikaze Minato, are allowed to be heartbroken, but Uchiha Mikoto is not allowed to have a nervous breakdown after losing her beloved.

So it was natural for Kinai to spy on her son while watching Mikoto while he was on guard duty.Minato admitted that running around Konoha with his son was indeed more fun than taking a nap with his aging body.Ghosts don't need to sleep.

"Naruto, I'm dad, no, no, no, I'm fine, I just want to ask if your mother is okay with you." Minato searched around and picked up the Flying Thunder God communicator.Hokage's emergency communication number has been changed to Kakashi's, which is almost civilian. "Well, I know you can't see it, but if she is near you, you will know that I am looking for her. Well, Dad is fine, I’m playing chess with Yamato and he’s about to lose. Okay, see you tonight.”

Minato, who had been sitting on the sofa in a daze, looked at Yamato, who was actually coming over with a chessboard, waved his hand, and continued to press the numbers. As a former Hokage, he could indeed memorize ninja numbers from the first generation to the newly graduated genin, "Hey, Orochimaru , Is my wife with you? She's not here."

Minato listened to Orochimaru's beep and turned off the communicator, and suddenly felt aggrieved. If it were Kakashi, Orochimaru wouldn't be so straightforward. "Kina must have gone to Orochimaru's place to supervise the work again. She said She needs to check it out often."

"Hmm." Yamato put down the chessboard and asked, "Would you like another massage?"

"I just pressed it before going to bed."

Yamato was not prepared to listen to the Hokage's opinion.

Minato lay on the sofa and looked at the clock on the wall. The Rain Ninja Base was under construction, and the Flying Thunder God team came and went frequently. If he took a nap until he woke up naturally, Kinai could actually come back before he woke up.

Uzumaki Kina was not in the rain ninja village that Minato thought, but had just come out of the Uchiha mansion.She lied to Minato, her son did peek, but the Rain ninja supervisor never did, she just made an excuse for herself to continue to spy on Uchiha Mikoto.

Uchiha Mikoto was not without her problems.There was a dark shadow in her shadow.Once Mikoto looked at Fugaku's

When she was scolding her dead husband in the photo, the dark figure spoke in Mikoto's own tone and voice, saying words that could arouse dissatisfaction, resentment, and resentment in her heart.Just like Mikoto said, she seemed to split into two.

At first, Kinai thought it was Mikoto's split soul. The Uchiha were an ancient and magical family, and it was normal for them to have some secret skills unknown to outsiders.

But later, Kinai followed Mikoto to the legendary Uchiha clan master's secret room. The black shadow stood up and changed his voice. Without Mikoto noticing, he called the black shadow ancestor.Kinai was not surprised at this time. Uchiha was an ancient and magical family, and it was normal for an evil ghost to confuse people's hearts.

But when Kinai went to greet the black shadow, she found that the black shadow could not see her, but she saw that the black shadow could pick up the Uchiha scroll and write on it with a pen, and even use ninjutsu and possess chakra. Not a soul at all

So, who is this guy who has been trying to stir up Mikoto's hatred for Konoha.

Kinai was in a dilemma. The ghost should report to her superiors at this time, but who should she report to? Although Kakashi could accept that she was a ghost, he could not communicate directly after all.Of course, if you tell Minato, even if Kakashi doesn't believe it, you have to take it seriously.But the black shadow instigated Mikoto in order to make Uchiha and Konoha fall into disgrace again. Now that Mikoto can obviously resist this temptation, Uchiha has no other thoughts.But telling Konoha what happened, whether it was tightening surveillance or arresting people, would actually make Sombra happy.

The most important thing is that Kinai really doesn't want to see Minato running for Konoha anymore.Although Minato never complained about feeling uncomfortable, Kinai knew that he still felt uncomfortable, and the chakra withdrawal reaction was correct, withdrawal.Even if she was born with chakra and was sealed, the power was still hidden in every cell and every piece of flesh.And when Minato stops refining chakra, the chakra in his body will gradually fade after a period of time, just like a drug addict who has been taking drugs for half his life and suddenly stops taking it.

"Why is there chakra?" Kinai floated back to Minato on time.

"How is Orochimaru's progress?"

"Anyway, he is working." Qinai quickly interrupted, "Humans have hands, feet, and brains. They can also make tools for things they cannot do. When they are sick, they collect herbs and have chakra, but they don't live a peaceful life for a day."

As expected, Minato no longer paid attention to Orochimaru, "It's probably the Six Paths' fault. I heard the elders scolding and letting slip when I was practicing at Mt. Myouki."

"Oh oh oh"

"The scolding was very unpleasant."

"Don't bite you half-heartedly."

"It's really unpleasant. I can't curse it."

"Then just say it quietly."

Minato gently wrote a line on Kinai's hand, "That stupid old bastard from Six Paths."

When animals and humans mix, they become animals

Konoha's 62nd year, it's almost December again
