Yamanaka Fū nodded. "Kawaki, you're coming with me to investigate the experimental records. The others will eliminate the guards and laboratory personnel. Be careful—do not damage the equipment. We need the complete experimental data."
The team split into two groups. Yamanaka Fū and Kawaki headed deeper into the base toward the experimental archives, while the other members charged toward the guards and laboratory personnel.
Before long, fierce fighting and screams rang out throughout the base.
Kawaki and Yamanaka Fū carefully avoided the combat zones as they made their way toward the experimental archives.
The archives' door was tightly shut, covered in complex seals.
Yamanaka Fū was about to break them by force when Kawaki stopped him. "Wait. There's something wrong with this seal. If we force it open, it'll trigger an alarm—and it might destroy the experimental records inside."
"Then what do you suggest?"
Yamanaka Fū asked coldly.
Kawaki carefully studied the seal. "Orochimaru designed this seal himself. It requires a specific Chakra frequency to unlock.
Let me try."
Kawaki extended a finger and fed a thread of Chakra into the seal, carefully adjusting its frequency.
About ten minutes later, the seal finally let out a faint click and slowly opened.
"It's done. Let's go in."
Kawaki said.
Yamanaka Fū nodded, pushed open the door, and entered the experimental archives.
The room was packed with computers and filing cabinets. The computer screens displayed all sorts of complex experimental data, while the cabinets contained experiment reports.
"Quick, gather the data."
Yamanaka Fū said as he began working on the computers.
The sand ninja's body jolted at Aoba's words. His grip on the kunai loosened unconsciously, and sweat rolled down his cheeks, falling onto the scorching sand and evaporating in an instant, leaving only tiny dark marks behind.
He stared at Aoba.
