Uchiha Genmei took out the scroll and released its seal.
With a bang—
Amid billowing smoke, a blue potion appeared.
The potion, lifted by Genmei's chakra, gleamed with a brilliant blue light.
"My lord... what is this?" Uchiha Yuta pushed up his glasses—yes, glasses...
As an Uchiha without a Mangekyō Sharingan, he'd unfortunately become nearsighted.
"This is the product Orochimaru developed." Uchiha Genmei picked up one of the vials and continued in a grave voice, "The finished version."
At that, Uchiha Chiri pressed a hand to her forehead.
She sighed.
"They actually succeeded?"
Heaven knew how unbelievable she'd found the project when she first heard about it.
The idea that these clans had all descended from the same ancestor was downright insane.
They'd been fighting the Senju for over a thousand years!
If they really were relatives, what could have driven them to fight each other so fiercely?
And besides...
Chiri didn't know much about research.
She just thought trying to gain the power of their ancestors this way was...
far too fanciful!
"Heave-ho—" Uchiha Hikari had no such reservations.
Holding the vial, she took the syringe attached to it and stuck it straight into her arm.
Though she was small, she was a weapon of decisive battle; she didn't think this was a big deal.
After all, back in the day, her crazed clansmen had been able to strip the Mangekyō Sharingan techniques from other people's eyes and implant them in hers.
Compared to that, she thought getting a shot was nothing.
As the potion was slowly injected...
"What's this?" Uchiha Hikari lifted her hands in surprise. "So strong! It's really strong!"
Blue chakra flames surged around her, while her vigorous life force spread outward in rippling waves.
Slowly...
A moment later.
