The way to remove the Cursed Seal! The mysterious Yukimaru
After Shinki finished asking his questions, the Prison, which had just quieted down, erupted into a commotion again.
When did Orochimaru become so kind?
"If you ask me, he's not Orochimaru's people at all!"
"Orochimaru is definitely going to do some evil experiments on us again!"
"I've overcome so many difficulties to gain this strength! How could I possibly give up so easily!"
Hearing the noisy discussion among the group, Shinki laid it all out. "My name is Shinki, and I am Orochimaru's enemy. I'm asking you today because I want to use your bodies to test methods for removing the Cursed Seal."
"Those who are willing can step forward voluntarily."
"I don't want to... Hmph..."
The people in the Prison remained silent.
(ー_ー)!!
This boy looked to be only a teenager, but his aura far surpassed that of an ordinary Ninja!
His "humph" clearly conveyed a very obvious meaning.
If they don't want to, just beat them until they do!! (||๐_๐)
Suddenly, a scream erupted from the second-floor cell, and a middle-aged man spoke excitedly.
"I'm willing to participate in the experiment!"
"I've heard of him! Shinki! He's that Wood Release Ninja from Konoha!"
The other test subjects asked, "Why do you know this, but we don't?"
"You're probably not this kid's spy planted inside the fortress, are you?"
The middle-aged man sneered, "How many years have you all been locked up in this godforsaken place? I'm a newcomer who arrived two years ago, so I've heard of the Shinki Konoha prodigy, Shinki! ╭( ̄▽ ̄)╮"
"Anyway, I believe him! I've had enough of being here!"
Once it happens, it will happen again.
After the middle-aged man stepped forward, another twenty or so people followed suit, offering to let Shinki use their bodies for research.
Faced with their trust, Shinki solemnly assured them, "No matter the final outcome, I will guarantee your safety!"
The remaining test subjects on higher floors lay hidden behind the steel fence, watching with expressions of amusement.
They also wanted to know what abilities this young man possessed that allowed him to remove what Lord Orochimaru was researching.
The experiment begins.
Shinki used Wood Release to build a simple experimental platform, and then took out a scalpel, shadowless lamp, suture needles and thread, microscope and other random things from the summoning battle.
Naruto next to him: (¬‸¬)?
"Did you empty out Konoha Hospital?"
Shinki: "It's normal for a doctor like me to carry a lot of props, right? ┐(´-`)┌"
After that, Shinki had Naruto put on a lab coat and act as his assistant, and the two began working around the operating table...
A few minutes later, the first experiment failed.
The test subject's body was stimulated by the Cursed Seal Chakra, leaving him on the verge of death...
This scene delighted the other spectators on the platform.
"I told you this kid wasn't cut out for it!"
"Exactly, to actually think of removing the Cursed Seal placed by Lord Orochimaru is utterly delusional, a pipe dream, a futile attempt to teach a fish to swim, like Great Sword one's skills in front of an expert... վ'ᴗ' ի"
"The person upstairs has probably used up all their knowledge in their entire life..."
"I don't know what they were thinking, actually believing in this child. Now look what's happened, the experiment failed, and he's even lost his life!"
"Wait! Look! What's that kid doing?! (≖╻≖;)"
One of the test subjects looked flustered and pointed to the operating table.
Beside the operating table, Shinki was seen gathering Medical Chakra in his hands, his scalpel flashing as he moved...
Before long, the experimental subject, who was on the verge of death, miraculously opened his eyes!
Shinki smiled confidently, "I'm medical-nin. My Chakra Scalpel is for saving lives, how could I accidentally kill someone? ( ˝ᗢ̈˝ )"
The other experimental subjects nearby were shocked.
This child's Medical Ninjutsu are remarkable; he brought a person back from the brink of death in just a few minutes!
The experiment then continued.
The research on the Cursed Seal was more difficult than Shinki had imagined.
What he thought would be resolved in half an hour took him more than an hour to find a solution!
Having mastered the technique, he formed hand seals. "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!"
"Whoosh--"
Hundreds of Shadow Clones appeared in succession, helping all those willing to break free from the Cursed Seal's control to return to normal!
As for the rest of you, you can stay in this jail for the rest of your lives!
After resolving the issues at the fortress, Shinki and Naruto continued their journey.
A few minutes later, the two passed through a forest shrouded in thick fog.
Naruto rubbed his eyes first, then pointed forward and asked the Shinki beside him, "Did you see that?"
Shinki nodded and drew the Kusanagi Sword from his waistband. "I see it!"
From the thick fog ahead of them, the figure of a child appeared like a ghost!
"Who are you?" Naruto asked.
Through the mist, a boy's childish voice rang out. "Do you like camellias? Do you prefer the white ones or the red ones?"
Shinki and Naruto exchanged a glance.
What exactly is this child?
To suddenly appear in the fog is one thing, but what kind of question is that?
"I don't like that. I prefer the kind that generates coins automatically every few minutes. (๑╹ヮ╹๑)"
Shinki gave a vague and incomplete answer.
Naruto:(‧_‧?)
What the Shinki is "divine tree"? How can anyone even respond to such a thing?
And what's with the flower that automatically generates gold coins?!
∑(✘Д✘๑)
The boy was stunned when he heard Shinki's answer.
The other person seemed to be on a different wavelength, yet they did indeed answer my question.
The boy spoke again, his voice filled with confusion and doubt. "Tell me, where does a person's final destination lie?"
After a moment's thought, Shinki replied, "Death. No matter how glorious or impoverished a person is, they will eventually die."
"This is the law of nature, the law of all things."
The boy fell silent, seemingly agreeing with Shinki's assessment.
His heart felt empty after his mother died.
Although Mr. Kabuto treated him well, he knew that this was not where he belonged.
Perhaps the red-haired boy was right; he should die, so that he might be able to meet his mother in another world...
The boy's figure disappeared into the misty forest.
Shinki frowned slightly, seemingly lost in thought.
It was dozens of kilometers away from Naruto and the Shinki.
Dou and Guren walked ahead, while a child with green hair followed hesitantly behind.
Kabuto, sensing something was wrong, turned around and asked, "What's Yukimaru?"
The child lowered his head. "Mr. Dou, where is my final destination?"
Dou smiled gently, not taking the child's question to heart, because the child had asked this question many times before.
He said, "Where those who care about you are, that is your home, Yukimaru."
"You care about me..."
The child lowered his head and remained silent.
He hadn't experienced genuine care in a long time since his mother's death.
Yukimaru's previously bewildered gaze hardened, and he suddenly raised his foot, accelerating towards the large tree beside him...
Death is the only destination!
