Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
Explosions rang out incessantly across the testing grounds. Beneath their deafening roar, faint cries of alarm and screams could be heard, along with a burst of unrestrained laughter.
The researchers in the observation area at the edge of the grounds all frowned.
Owl stood in the middle of the testing grounds, laughing maniacally. The test participants were sprawled across the ground; those still able to cry out in pain and groan could count themselves lucky. Most had suffered serious injuries and passed out.
As for the Tenseigan puppets involved in the test, Owl had beaten them into scattered pieces. Not one of them could be put back together into a whole body.
There was no doubt about it.
A combat assessment of Owl had just taken place on the testing grounds.
Some injuries during combat assessments were inevitable. People had been hurt before, whether during tests of Zabuza or Orochimaru.
But this time, Owl had clearly been trying to make an example of them, or even vent his anger. Many of the injuries had been unnecessary, yet he had deliberately gone too far in front of the researchers.
The researchers at the edge of the grounds looked displeased as they watched Owl continue laughing.
Amado seemed unaffected. He paid no attention to Owl's triumphant laughter on the field and instead carefully examined the data collected during the test.
A moment later, he handed the data to his assistant. "Record and archive it!"
"Yes!"
The assistant hurriedly nodded.
Tsunade came over and asked, "How did the data look?"
Amado nodded. "Impeccable. We've created another nearly perfect experimental subject!"
By every measure, Owl's performance had met the Research Institute's expectations. In terms of basic attributes like speed, strength, and reflexes, he was in no way inferior to Orochimaru and
