"The function of this thing is simple, a one-time repulsive force.

But I'll be repelled too, after all, it's just an incomplete item."

After deciphering the Dragon Script, Yayoi understood its use.

It simply released repulsive force, not very powerful, and useless to Yayoi.

However, if there was a sudden explosion, it might save a life.

"It's truly tasteless, yet a pity to discard."

Yayoi casually tossed the item onto the workbench.

This thing was useless and ugly. He'd give it to Shengshu later.

In the original story, Shengshu died. Yayoi couldn't recall which war it was, but his death seemed ignoble.

Next time they met, he'd give this ugly thing to him.

Perhaps it could save his life, making their friendship worthwhile.

"Nothing to do today, I'll continue my research."

Yayoi shook his head, feeling like he'd wasted two days.

"I'll wait until noon, maybe I can get Yan to help me research. Never mind."

Yayoi was now almost a nominal member of the school, rarely seen there.

Because Yayoi contributed to the hospital, he was essentially employed there.

Normally, Yayoi would send a Shadow Clone to clock in.

At the school, he had already made arrangements with Teacher Utsugi.

Each semester, he would go to Teacher Utsugi to verify his coursework for that term.

As for how he got Teacher Utsugi to agree, it was naturally due to Yayoi's undeniable, burning Will of Fire.

"Next, which direction should I research?"

Yayoi idly fiddled with a Test Tube.

"I'll ask Grandpa Enichi to send over some Chakra-conducting metal another day. He probably won't be stingy about making weapons for his granddaughter."

"As for Rin, perhaps learning more sword techniques would benefit her, but I don't have the time.

Why not just have Yan teach her? Yan would probably agree."

Time always passes like a white colt galloping by, leaving one with endless regret.

Konoha 34

The war continued, escalating with each passing day.

Even other countries began to join in, and Konoha's pressure grew immense.

They had even resorted to "cheating" methods to recruit sixth-year students. Fortunately, Enichi was only in his fifth year.

However, even if they recruited him, he wouldn't have to worry, as he was merely a nominal physician.

As for Yan, Elder Yuan Yi would naturally worry about her. As for Rin, if she hadn't had the Caged Bird seal etched at her age, Enichi wouldn't believe for a second that she had no background.

They would officially become Genin after graduating in their sixth year and would only complete their normal six years of schooling.

Enichi continued his experiments leisurely every day.

However, with Yan's cooperation and the progress of his research, the study concerning the Uchiha Gene was finally beginning to show results.

The Uchiha Gene contained a special gene sequence, which held special information.

The reason it was called special was because it was extremely lazy.

It was invisible, or rather, it only appeared in the genes of Uchiha who had awakened their Sharingan.

It wasn't incomplete, but whole, existing in everyone from birth.

This special gene sequence was very hidden. If Enichi hadn't researched the Uchiha Gene so deeply, he probably wouldn't have discovered it no matter what.

Through his research, Enichi found that in Yan's genes, this part of the information was significantly more active.

For other Uchiha who had awakened their Sharingan, the special gene sequence in their blood was comparatively lazy.

Enichi made a bold guess.

This might be the key to awakening the Sharingan.

The awakening of the Sharingan was caused by the intense emotional fluctuations of the Uchiha, which generated a special Chakra in their brains.

This Chakra acted upon the eyes, manifesting externally as a pair of blood-red pupils.

The special Chakra used for awakening the Sharingan might be determined by this special gene sequence.

Continuing his research along this line, Enichi even neglected his daily Dragon Script deciphering.

He poured all his energy into studying this special gene sequence.

He took out all the Uchiha cell samples and, after a month of research, finally unlocked the secret of the Uchiha.

As per his previous guess, Yayoi verified his conjecture.

The Uchiha clan members contained a special gene sequence within their bodies, but they were very lazy, requiring intense emotional fluctuations and mental stimulation to activate it.

This was the Uchiha's power, the cornerstone of their strength.

The so-called geniuses, or rather, geniuses like Yan who could awaken the Sharingan with the slightest emotional fluctuation.

Perhaps it was the naturally active gene sequence that caused even a slight emotional fluctuation to stimulate this special gene sequence.

In the outside world, this manifested as awakening the Sharingan!

Blood-red eyes, a special gene sequence – this was the key.

The complete key.

Understood, Yayoi understood.

The secret of the Uchiha's Sharingan lay in this special gene sequence.

As long as he could completely fuse this gene sequence, Yayoi would obtain the Uchiha bloodline.

Furthermore, given Yayoi's Senju Gene and the Uchiha's compatibility, this fusion was not unimaginable; it could even be said to be exceptionally easy.

If the Dragon Clan bloodline were to erupt at that time, under the bloodline suppression, Yayoi's Uchiha bloodline could even achieve perfect fusion in a short period.

He wouldn't even need to go through an adaptation period.

Never underestimate the power of genes; to survive, they could abandon everything.

With this understanding, Yayoi poured all his energy into researching and extracting the Uchiha's special gene sequence.

This was not a particularly simple process; it required a certain amount of time.

Yayoi needed to extract the complete gene sequence.

During this process, he still had breakfast with Yan every day and discussed sword dance ideas with Rin.

And each time he returned to the laboratory, Yayoi would completely shed all his other concerns and focus on the gene sequence research, maintaining only a sliver of vigilance against being followed.

The discovery of the Uchiha gene sequence gave him hope for rapid advancement.

Yayoi's plan was simple.

First, he had to awaken Blood Rage, the complete Blood Rage.

Although his bloodline had been diluted, returning to the source was simpler than taking it step by step.

As long as he maintained the balance between the two.

After activating the complete Fourth Bloody Surge, Yayoi's dragon blood would be strengthened like never before.

At that time, the dragon blood would boil, the bloodline would purify, and the dragon bloodline within his body would suppress the Divine Tree Bloodline for a short period.

As long as he injected the Uchiha Gene sequence at this time, the Uchiha gene would be forced to integrate with the Senju under the pressure of the dragon blood.

Once the Divine Tree Bloodline was completed, it would receive a significant strengthening.

Given the growth-dependent nature of the Divine Tree Bloodline, the dragon blood would even maintain suppression over him, but it would ultimately maintain a temporary balance.

During this time, Yayoi, with his supplemented bloodline and the means of stimulating bloodlines like Bloody Surge, would be able to activate this gene sequence with ease.

Once the so-called Sharingan was activated, his Divine Tree Bloodline would once again pull the balance back in an instant.
