Genbu

While there might be risks involved, this is generally how it works.

However, Yayoi's plan has a large margin for error.

The enhancement of bloodlines doesn't instantly crush other bloodlines.

This is the result of Yayoi's research on his own blood, and a profound memory from his first night in Konohagakure.

This timeframe is enough for Yayoi to fuse the bloodlines.

However, extracting the gene sequence doesn't seem to be simple.

Yayoi can't perfectly extract the gene sequence; a difficulty is holding him back.

This makes Yayoi a bit anxious.

Yayoi does have other methods if he can't perfectly extract the gene sequence.

For example, extracting the entire Uchiha Clan's gene sequence.

He could even directly transplant flesh and blood to obtain the Uchiha bloodline.

But with this imperfect transplant, Yayoi is very worried it might be destroyed by the Dragon Blood, which senses threats.

The two consciousnesses possess instincts; even when suppressed, they will react instinctively when sensing a strong threat.

This is precisely why Yayoi pursues the most perfect Gene Fluid.

Because an imperfect transplant requires time, a very long time, and it cannot fuse instantly even under the pressure of the Dragon Blood.

During this fusion period, it's even possible for the Dragon Blood to take the opportunity to cause conflict, suppress, or even destroy the Divine Tree Bloodline and the Ten-Tails' consciousness.

But now, he is troubled by one difficulty.

This feeling is truly indescribable; Yayoi feels like ants are crawling on him.

A violent, unprovoked rage rises from the depths of his heart, as if wanting to tear something apart.

"Hoo."

Seemingly noticing his emotional fluctuation, Yayoi adjusted his emotions and patted his slightly stiff face.

He packed up all the experimental equipment and put the important data and materials into scrolls to take with him.

After setting up the traps, Yayoi left the place directly.

It's not that he's being overly cautious; it's just that he feels like he's being watched lately.

Judging by how covert they are, they should be from the ANBU, but the ANBU aren't this idle; they must be Danzo's men.

Yayoi has been living like this for the past few days; he dares not let his guard down.

Fortunately, this is within the Uchiha Clan's territory. If it were his original home...

Yayoi's laboratory would probably have been turned upside down by now.

"Damn Danzo, just wait for your death."

He cursed the "King of Pots" fiercely and then went to Yan's house.

Have you ever seen Konohagakure at dawn?

If Yayoi were to answer, it would definitely be yes.

He has seen Konohagakure at all times of the day, including now.

The sun has just risen, and the crescent moon hasn't even faded yet.

Not wanting to stay up all night, Yayoi ended up pulling an all-nighter.

Then, when the time felt right, he directly performed this action, the first in ten years.

"Yan, wake up."

"Mmm..."

After a short wait, the sound of the door being pushed open was heard. Yan's drowsy eyes were still a bit unfocused, as if a transparent mist covered them. Her long eyelashes fluttered, clearly indicating she was still sleepy.

"Why are you up so early today?"

Yan squeezed Yayoi's hand, dispelling the blurry, dream-like feeling.

"I couldn't sleep. I saw the sky light up, so I came to find you."

The two walked towards the streets of Konoha. Their daily portion of dango had almost become a habit for them.

Ninja have special physiques and don't need to worry about sweets. Major clans and powerful families are even less concerned.

He casually packed two portions of dango, and they ate as they walked.

"How's the research on the Uchiha cells going?"

Walking in the back mountains behind the school, Yan casually asked.

Yan knew about the experiments involving the Uchiha and Senju.

Yayoi hadn't hidden it from her from the start, and besides, some experiments required Yan's cooperation.

Yan had definitely noticed Yayoi's abnormality over the past month.

"There's been a major breakthrough. I've discovered a special sequence within the Uchiha Gene.

It exists between chakra and information, an invisible, dormant gene."

Yayoi briefly explained his findings to Yan.

He also elaborated on the differences between Yan and other Uchiha members.

"I never thought it would be like this. Did you find a way to obtain this Uchiha gene?"

Yan looked at Yayoi curiously.

If Mr. Yayoi is going to inject the Uchiha gene, he should inject mine.

After all, Mr. Yayoi just said my gene was superior.

Doesn't that mean Mr. Yayoi will have my blood? Will he become my younger brother or older brother, or something even stranger?

Will there be any bad side effects later?

As she thought about it, Yan's face gradually flushed red.

"I found it, but not entirely."

Yayoi looked strangely at Yan, who had suddenly blushed.

This is a very serious matter, why are you blushing?

"I can fuse the entire Uchiha gene sequence and then have my own bloodline merge with it, discarding the useless genes.

However, this will take time, and my physical condition is a bit special. I can't, or rather, I can't have prolonged bloodline fusion time."

"Then keep working hard, Mr. Yayoi. I believe you'll definitely succeed."

Yan raised her small fists to her chest and cheered him on.

"Of course, I've received Yan's encouragement."

Yayoi smiled.

Although progress had stalled, there had been a breakthrough. Step by step, he would eventually succeed.

"Ring ring ring"

The school bell rang, a reminder.

The Ninja School bell rang twice. The first was a reminder for students to enter the classroom quickly, and the second signaled the start of class.

"Let's go."

"Oh, Mr. Yayoi, are you going to class today?"

Yan covered her mouth, looking surprised.

"Stop teasing me."

Yayoi's face darkened. He could tell Yan was deliberately trying to provoke him.

"Yayoi is here."

Sakurai Utsugi seemed surprised to see Yan pulling Yayoi's hand.

It wasn't about holding hands, but about Yayoi actually coming.

After all, his student had become successful and was now affiliated with a hospital.

"Ahem, I won the battle today, so no one's at the hospital."

Yayoi argued weakly.

"Alright, come in."

Teacher Utsugi shook his head and chuckled.

Yayoi didn't stand on ceremony and immediately sat back down.

A long-lost seat, and the familiar feeling of having a deskmate.

He looked at Rin on his left and Yan on his right.

Yayoi felt that his life in Konoha was truly comfortable.

Of course, this was under the condition that the troublesome Root members didn't interfere.

If it weren't for his presence in the Uchiha Clan Territory, his experiments would likely have been exposed and presented to Danzo long ago.

"You're all grown up now. Today, we'll be having a practical combat class with another class.

Discovering your shortcomings during training will be better than correcting them on the battlefield after graduation."

Teacher Sakurai Utsugi explained today's learning objective from the front.

It was a practical combat class.
