Konoha: Archers of the Hyuga family

"Whoo~"

Hinata Kumokawa bent down and put his hands on his knees.

A course of treatment is now over, and the boy's physical condition is worse than when Hinata Kumikawa first saw him...

Although a complete chakra circuit was barely constructed, the "feedback" of chakra was only more obvious in the parts that had been eroded by Hashirama cells. The cells in other positions were still in a state of being exploited, and the chakra fed back could not be absorbed at all. Reversal of visceral failure.

Now he not only relies on nutrient solution, but also has someone to constantly use healing ninjutsu to nourish his internal organs...

Orochimaru came over and replaced the hanging bottle with new medicine.

Then he used medical ninjutsu on the experimental subject to help the student pull the experimental subject back a little from the closed door of the ghost gate.

"Yumokawa-kun, you take too much care of this experimental subject."

"But he's almost done, isn't he? Teacher, except for part of the internal organs, other parts have been completely integrated with the first-generation cells... Now all we need is that he can survive this final hurdle..."

Compared to the seven experimental subjects that were eliminated in the past two months, the boy in front of him was the closest to success.

Most of them were fine the day before, but when they saw it the next day, the experimental subject in the glass jar had grown into a small tree. The child's body and will were simply unable to suppress the self-activation of chakra in Hashirama's cells.

In comparison, the child in front of him is deteriorating very slowly. Although the assimilation speed is not fast, he has survived two waves of residents next door. In Hinata Kumikawa's view, he is the most promising experimental subject in this laboratory to survive. .

If you can barely save one, you will naturally want to save the one with the most hope.

During this period of time, Hinata Kumokawa also kept thinking about it.

Why is Obito able to adapt so well to the Wood Release Cell, and Danzo is not in danger because of his arm...

If Obito is said to be an Uchiha, and what makes up for his body is the Wooden Release White Zetsu, which is slightly different from the first generation.

Then Danzo...

Thinking back carefully, it seems that in addition to the bandage, his right hand is also bound by a metal ring. Combined with his profound knowledge of sealing techniques, he probably used sealing techniques to isolate his arm and body.

But naturally, the experimental subject cannot be like him, just a semi-finished product, isolating the parts eroded by Hashirama cells... That would defeat the original intention of the experiment.

Of course, even with Hinata Kumikawa's sealing skills, he couldn't do it.

However, it is also a solution...

"Teacher, I have an idea. If we use sealing techniques to temporarily isolate some of the organs in his body and combine them with Hashirama cells one by one, maybe... we can succeed."

"Well, it's not impossible."

Orochimaru thought about it and thought it was feasible.

Of course, not every experimental subject can reach this step. At least the body must have a certain ability to accept Hashirama cells and be able to inhibit the absorption and activation of natural chakra by the cells, otherwise this step will not be necessary at all.

Just do it.

Orochimaru put down what he was doing, gave another experimental subject an injection, put it back into the glass chamber, and then came over to prepare for the sealing technique... Because it inhibited the cells inside the human body, it was quite difficult.

Even Orochimaru was sweating profusely after performing the technique.

The cells will temporarily stop invading the sealed internal organs and will not extract energy from them.

This behavior does improve the survival rate of the experimental subject, but it will also greatly increase the duration of the experiment, and it will consume several times or even ten times the original time to promote the complete fusion of him and Hashirama cells...

……

squeak--

Just as Orochimaru was performing the sealing technique, the metal door of the laboratory opened.

Danzo walked in with one hand in his arms.

He would come every two days, and Hinata Kumikawa was used to it. He turned around and called "Danzo-sama" and continued to help Orochimaru and observe whether the sealing technique worked in the boy's body.

"How is the experiment going?"

Danzo walked to the two of them and looked at the boy on the operating table.

Orochimaru was busy and had no time to pay attention to him.

After a while, after confirming that the sealing technique was taking effect in the kidneys, he straightened up with a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeves.

"This experiment is not 100% successful, you understand."

At this time, Orochimaru used the honorific title for Danzo.

"Of course it's not hopeless. If everything goes well, this experimental subject may really succeed."

"Um...what were you doing just now?"

Danzo asked.

Orochimaru left the operating table and signaled Hinata Kumikawa to carry the experimental subject back to the glass chamber. He took two slow steps and sat down on the chair.

"Yumokawa suggested using sealing techniques to temporarily protect important organs and prevent cells from destroying important organs. I thought it could improve the survival rate of the experimental subjects, so I gave it a try. Maybe it will succeed."

"The sealing technique...is indeed possible, but it's too slow."

After Danzo thought for a moment, he understood Hinata Kumikawa's thoughts.

It is nothing more than assimilating one kidney first, so that even if there is a problem with the kidney during the period, there will still be one that works normally and can continue to maintain life.

But, like he said.

too slow……

From the beginning of the experiment to now, it has been carried out for three years, and countless experimental subjects have lost their lives.

From the initial research on cells, to the previous attempts at transplantation, to the current taboo experiment... His hand has been waiting for three years and three years, and the situation is getting worse day by day.

If he continues to wait, his right arm will become useless.

A ninja can lose a leg, but never a hand.

Except for some skilled and simple ninjutsu, it is impossible not to form seals. Losing one hand means forcing a person to form seals with one hand. The speed of releasing ninjutsu will be far inferior to both hands in all aspects.

If you are a ninja who specializes in physical skills, it may not have much impact.

But for a ninja who specializes in ninjutsu, it is polite to have his strength reduced by half. After all, not every ninja is a first-generation ninja. He can shout whatever he wants with his hands...

It is impossible for a one-armed Shimura clan member to take the position of Hokage.

He needs this right arm, especially one made of first-generation cells.

The experiments on the first-generation cells were not only for the purpose of making anti-tailed beast weapons, but also for his hope of recovering his arm.

Orochimaru knew what he was thinking.

"At least, this is a good start, isn't it, Danzo-senpai~"

"As soon as possible."

"Of course, maybe tomorrow."

……

Hinata Kumokawa connected the large and small jars to the pinholes on the boy's back, put down the glass cover, filled it with nutrient solution, and at the same time listened to Danzo's conversation.

To be honest, he didn't understand.

Both are Riddlers.

After Danzo left, Orochimaru had taken off his white coat and hung it on the back of the chair as usual.

"Yunchuan, thank you for your hard work during this time."

"Teacher is being polite, that's what students should do."

"I'll give you three days off. Go back and spend time with your parents. By the way, I'll say hello to senior Zaotianye for me."

"I will, teacher."

"That's it, see you the day after tomorrow."

"goodbye teacher……"

Hinata Kumokawa walked to the door, turned the wheel to open the iron door, and got into his lounge, preparing to take off his white coat and go home, and take a good sunbath.

Originally, the skin color of the Hyuga clan was fair enough, but after staying underground for two months, it felt like they were about to have the same skin color as vampires...

"By the way, Yunchuan, do you know why I chose you at that time?"

"Because...white eyes."

"No, because we are the same kind of people. We are only loyal to ourselves. For your own sake, you can hide everything here. You will not tell anyone, including my teacher~"

"..."

"Okay, let's go, I want to have a good sleep too."

Orochimaru stood at the door and smiled slightly, stretching lazily.
