Uchiha Itachi Also Wanted to Become Stellar

Zenith Civilization had proven through more than one experimental method that the arrangement of gluons inside Chakra Particles determined how quarks became Chakra.

That was the scientific method. Only something that could be designed to be falsified and then produce experimental results could be considered a scientific achievement.

By that standard, even the theory of evolution described in Origin of Species did not qualify, because there was no way to falsify it. The shortest span of human and human civilization history was still far too short compared with the timescale of species evolution.

Yet among rapidly reproducing bacteria, evolution had faced its most severe challenge.

E. coli could adjust itself to adapt to its environment, proving evolution's survival-of-the-fittest view. Yet after struggling for an entire year in extreme conditions, E. coli had not evolved into a second type of bacterium.

Using twenty years as a human generation, an E. coli generation took only twenty minutes. One year for them was several hundred times longer than the history of humanity branching off from monkeys.

This seemed to negate the core premise of evolution—the Origin of Species view.

Of course, the experiment itself was not rigorous. Biological evolution could not be comparatively verified in that manner, so Origin of Species could only be called a hypothesis because it could not be falsified.

And among hypotheses explaining species variation, it was the most complete one.

But the structure of Chakra Particles was different. Once Aburame Tetsumaru proposed the corresponding model, it endured verification through several falsification experiments.

It could now be fully confirmed that the Aburame Tetsumaru structure was, at present—emphasis on at present—the correct answer.

Thus, the question of Chakra became concentrated on the gluons within the particles.

How had they been stuffed into quarks?

How could highly free gluons exist stably
