"So that's why they're called Snow Demons. From what we've seen so far, no physical attack can do anything to these things," Belaque said to Uchiha Madara.
"Not necessarily. I want to run an experiment." As Uchiha Madara spoke, a piece of wood grew from each of his hands.
Uchiha Madara watched the little creature circling around his chest, then slapped it.
The insect's body was extremely fragile. With that slap from Uchiha Madara, it was flattened into a lump of flesh.
But the other insect was still hovering around Uchiha Madara and Belaque.
"I hate bugs the most." Belaque reached out and slapped the Snow Demon away.
"Look," Uchiha Madara said to Belaque. "The tissues and organs of this little bug I flattened are healing rapidly. Now this is interesting. This insect actually has such unusual physical traits."
"What's so unusual about that? It's just rapid healing. I've seen people with abilities like that, let alone insects," Belaque said.
"But think about it. When I flattened it, I definitely flattened its head too. So what exactly is controlling this insect's regeneration?" Uchiha Madara thought for a moment. "It clearly doesn't have a brain anymore."
Seeing how serious Uchiha Madara was, Belaque said speechlessly, "Why are you worrying about something like this now? Have you forgotten your mission? We need to hurry onward."
"Give me a small bottle," Uchiha Madara said to Belaque.
"What do you want it for?" Belaque asked, puzzled.
"This little thing is very interesting. I want to take one with me so I can study it after we return to our world. If it can work on the human body, that would be wonderful," Uchiha Madara said.
"It can regenerate even without a brain. Its regenerative ability is far stronger than Hashirama's regenerative cells," Uchiha Madara
