Just as they had expected, the Aging Agent developed by Tsunade took effect. Its ability to stimulate accelerated cell division spread from the severed tail all the way to the demon's main body, causing its cells to begin dividing rapidly as well.
Whoosh.
The mechanism activated, instantly severing the artificial blood vessels connecting the tail to the main body.
Tsunade gave another order. "Report the data in real time!"
Yakumo hurriedly called out, "The test subject's cells are still dividing faster. The rate has exceeded 1,700%, and the Aging Agent is still taking effect."
On the other side, the Medical Ninja monitoring the demon's main body shouted, "After the connection was severed, the 'monster's' vital signs began to return to normal."
Not all demons' flesh could survive apart from their main bodies.
Like the demon in the laboratory before them, once a severed limb was detached from its body, it withered rapidly like a flower under the scorching sun. So after the artificial blood vessels were cut, the severed tail used as the test subject soon shriveled up, making further observation pointless.
After compiling the data from the experiment, the research team began its meeting.
Tsunade spoke first. "Based on the data from this experiment, our approach to developing the Aging Agent is undoubtedly correct!"
"Wonderful!"
The group erupted in cheers.
The pharmaceutical experts who had been specially allowed to join the research team were especially delighted.
Tsunade raised a hand to quiet everyone, then continued, "Although this experiment confirmed that the Aging Agent works, its effects are still less than ideal. It wouldn't be enough to deliver a decisive blow on the battlefield. We need to make it even more potent!"
Everyone nodded.
Based on this experiment, factoring in the Aging Agent's peak potency and the energy lost as
