Experiment Begins (Fourth Update)
Upon arriving at the Dragon Vein, the researchers began their tireless work.
Collect data, input it into the device, and fine-tune existing instruments.
Similarly, there was a group led by Orochimaru researching the possibility that breaking the seal would cause those present to travel through time.
Three days later, everything was ready.
The Hidden Sand Village wasn't idle either; they recorded everything and sent it back to the village for research.
Although Hidden Sand Village knew all the data, they still couldn't guess what Konoha wanted to do or what their purpose was.
The Sunagakure, which had never conducted research on the nature of Chakra, found the information and data obtained from Konoha like reading a book written in a foreign language.
It's like giving a research team that has never seen an airplane before, even if that team is already capable of creating artificial intelligence at a very high level.
However, even when given blueprints and data for a fifth-generation fighter jet, the team remained completely baffled and couldn't understand them.
To understand their data, we need to provide them with all the data from fourth-generation, third-generation, and even the earliest manually manufactured aircraft so that they can comprehend the meaning of fifth-generation fighter jets.
There is no such thing as instant success in the research field.
Once everything was ready, Kabuto brought Ren to the seal.
Although Kabuto could easily break the seal, and Ren gave Kabuto all the money he had taken from Minato Namikaze, this was a symbolic act.
How could Dou, who is always so sensible, overstep his bounds and do things his own way?
A scroll detailing the steps to unlock the seal was handed to Ren.
After quickly scanning and understanding it, Ren arrived in front of the seal left by the Fourth Hokage.
With a serious expression, he stretched out his hands, black lines spreading out, and then pressed them onto the seal.
[Untie!]
As the seal on the Dragon Vein was broken, an invisible force spread out, making the area around the Dragon Vein and the You Shu (Ren) appear somewhat illusory.
Without panicking, Ren calmly observed the scene, because everything was within Orochimaru's expectations, and Ren already knew it as well.
The four devices resembling cannon emplacements deployed around the Dragon Vein activated, spewing out ink-black curtains that covered the edges of the Dragon Vein.
The invisible force that made everything appear illusory and transparent was absorbed by the four gun-like devices.
After a few breaths, the four cannons became illusory, neither real nor unreal, and flickered continuously.
The Dragon Vein's unique ability to traverse time and space has been proven to be caused by the Flying Thunder God technique.
Orochimaru has a long way to go if he wants to replicate it. He may need to fully understand everything about the Dragon Vein, but he can only stop it from affecting spacetime.
After reading the complete Flying Thunder God lineage, it's not a difficult thing.
At this moment, the Dragon Vein completely lost all suppression and spewed out a deep purple power that was visible to the naked eye.
The feeling associated with Chakra is ambiguous and full of eeriness.
However, the Dragon Vein's arrogance didn't last more than five seconds before its immense power was channeled away.
In contrast, rows of equipment resembling incubation chambers had indicator lights illuminating one after another on their sides.
Soon, all the prepared cabins were lit up, emitting a pale purple light different from that of the Dragon Vein.
Four rows and 25 columns, exactly 100 cabins.
After 100 cabins were lit up, and after a series of operations by Dou and his team, the Dragon Vein seemed to wither away, no longer spewing outwards, and became unusually quiet.
"Ren, this suppression can only last for half an hour. We need to begin human trials now."
After Kabuto finished his work, he said to Ren.
Ren smiled and looked at the several Hidden Sand Village beside him, who immediately turned their heads away in fear.
Meanwhile, the researchers from Konoha raised their hands, their eyes filled with anticipation.
No matter how perfect the theory is, it's still the first time.
As expected, there aren't many cowards among those who do cutting-edge research.
Amidst the numerous "Pick me!" "Pick me!" glances from Konoha, Ren ultimately chose three of the most fervent individuals.
Animals were not used for initial testing because the entire system was designed for humans, and animals were not considered suitable for comparison.
Konoha didn't bring any death row inmates; it was just a group of researchers who confidently assured them there would be absolutely no problem.
Even if it fails, there will be no danger to their lives; they can simply go up themselves and act as test subjects.
Orochimaru did not approve of this, but Kabuto and Ren didn't care.
Ultimately, the three selected researchers became the test subjects, much to the envy of the other researchers.
He opened the hatch with great skill and then lay down inside.
As the hatch closed, after another series of maneuvers, the Dragon Vein began to erupt once more, and the indicator lights on the three-person-entered cabin emitted a blinding light.
The experiment has begun.
