"My original Wood Release is actually not much worse than yours."
Facing their gazes, Namikawa Yū shook his head. "The reason why he is stronger than you is not because of the difference in the Wood Release we devoured, but because of other things."
"Something else?"
Hiruko looked anxious. "What is that?"
"The flesh and blood of Nine-Tails."
Namikawa Yū spoke softly.
As the words fell, he stretched out his hand forward.
A ray of pale golden chakra gathered in his hand and condensed into a Rasengan.
In an instant, the chakra belonging to Nine-Tails appeared, which was extremely obvious at this moment.
"Is this the chakra of Nine-Tails?"
Feeling the power of Nine-Tails Chakra displayed by Namikawa Yū at this moment, both Orochimaru were a little shocked.
"Without the support of Master First Hokage's huge chakra, the pure Wood Release is actually just a slightly more powerful Kekkei Genkai. Although it is still powerful, it is not much different from Ice Release and other Kekkei Genkai."
Namikawa Yū spoke, "If you want to truly unleash the power of Wood Release, you must have strong enough chakra."
"Nine-Tails...
Hiruko's face became hot. "Can the flesh and blood of Nine-Tails be swallowed by Chimera Technique?"
"Teacher, I...
His eyes fell on Namikawa Yū. Although the words were not spoken, the meaning could not be clearer.
"You want to devour the flesh and blood of Nine-Tails like me?"
Without the other party saying anything, Namikawa Yū immediately understood what the other party was thinking.
In other words, given Hiruko's fanatical pursuit of power, it would be strange not to have this idea.
"This is a very dangerous idea."
Namikawa Yū said, "Swallowing Nine-Tails's flesh and blood is much more dangerous than devouring Master First Hokage's cells."
Senju Hashirama Cells No matter how powerful it is, it will never have its own consciousness.
As long as you can withstand the backlash of First Hokage's Cells, you can successfully devour it.
But the flesh and blood of Tailed Beast is different.
Tailed Beast This kind of existence is very special, and its flesh and blood cells are also filled with terrifying instinctive consciousness.
If you want to devour the flesh and blood of Tailed Beast, if you are not careful, you may be defeated by the remaining instincts in Tailed Beast Chakra and eventually go completely crazy.
"Based on your current situation, if you want to forcibly swallow the flesh and blood of Nine-Tails, you will probably go crazy."
He said so.
"Is there nothing we can do?"
Hiruko is not reconciled.
He has always been a paranoid person. Since he finally found a way to become stronger, he naturally cannot give up easily.
"Of course there are ways."
Namikawa Yū said, "Temper your will. As long as you temper your will to be extremely strong, to the point where you can easily suppress Tailed Beast's instinct, there will naturally be no danger.
"But right now, you're still far away."
In the laboratory, Namikawa Yū spent a lot of effort to persuade Hiruko to give up the idea temporarily.
After a while, Hiruko left with a worried look on his face.
"You should keep an eye on him during this period.
Standing there, looking at Hiruko's leaving figure, Namikawa Yū shook his head. "Although he promised me verbally that he wouldn't try it, I'm afraid he won't be willing to do it secretly."
"Yeah."
Orochimaru also showed approval on his face. "With his temperament, he is probably already thinking about how to try it secretly."
"I'll prepare things for him."
Namikawa Yū said calmly, "With his temperament, he will never be willing to fail unless he tries it himself."
"In that case, let's find a chance to let him try it."
"Won't something go wrong?"
Orochimaru looked surprised. "What if he fails..."
"I will leave him a safe sample, and the concentration will be adjusted to a very low level, just to let him feel the power."
Namikawa Yū said, "Even if it fails, nothing will happen."
No way.
Orochimaru and Hiruko are easy to use, but they also have many problems.
If you treat these two people as good babies, something will happen sooner or later.
Relatively speaking, Orochimaru is better than Hiruko.
Although he has his own ambitions, he also has his own emotions and reason.
With his personality, as long as you can meet his various needs and don't block his way forward, he will stay there and won't do anything extra.
Hiruko is a little more troublesome.
This guy's temper is too extreme, and it's hard to change what he believes.
Such a person's obsession will become stronger in his heart, which will often make things very troublesome in the end.
Fortunately, Namikawa Yū is here and the situation is generally under control.
Otherwise, if Hiruko is left alone, he will probably kill himself sooner or later.
"Go down and have a good rest."
He patted Orochimaru on the shoulder. "For this experiment, you haven't rested for a long time. It's time to stop."
"Go for a walk outside the laboratory, your friends are still waiting for you there."
He pointed outside the laboratory, where there was a faint burst of hearty laughter, which sounded like the voice of Jiraiya.
"Friends?"
Orochimaru looked at the outside world, thoughtfully at the moment.
He did not refuse Namikawa Yū's kindness, he just nodded and walked out.
Time passes slowly.
Late at night, the laboratory gradually became quiet.
The staff who were originally busy in the laboratory went home and entered a state of rest.
At this moment, a figure walked out of the corner and moved forward furtively.
This is Hiruko.
"It should be right here."
Entering this place from the outside world, he carefully climbed into the interior of the laboratory.
This is where Namikawa Yū places some valuable materials. Normally, except for Namikawa Yū, only a few people are qualified to enter this place.
Hiruko is one of them.
As Namikawa Yū's assistant, he often goes in and out of this place and is familiar with everything here, so he can find his way here without alerting the guards.
And his purpose is also very simple.
"With the teacher's character, since he has collected the flesh and blood of Nine-Tails, it is impossible not to leave a backup."
When he got here, various thoughts flashed through his mind. "It must be here..."
He groped around for a while, and soon focused on a corner.
There, a huge container stood quietly, with a bottle of crimson potion inside.
The bottle of potion may seem ordinary, but there is an inexplicable power flowing in it, giving people a strange feeling.
As Hiruko approached, a faint breath of Nine-Tails Chakra spread out from it.
"Found it!"
His mood suddenly became excited. "This is it!"
Without any hesitation, he took the things away and quickly left the place.
And after he left, just a moment later, the figure of Namikawa Yū appeared.
