After learning about his body's current condition, Nishiki Nishio was thrilled.
"Um... can I have children with a human, then?"
That was what Nishiki Nishio cared about most right now.
Orochimaru considered it briefly. "You can, but your partner can't be too physically frail."
"Not too frail? How frail is too frail?" Nishiki Nishio asked nervously.
"At the very least... she must be free of congenital illnesses and exercise regularly!"

Itachi spoke calmly.

With the experiment complete, Itachi left the underground laboratory with Nishiki Nishio and Hyuga Shoyo.
After leaving the underground laboratory, Nishiki Nishio went straight to find his girlfriend, Nishino Kimi.
Itachi, meanwhile, took Hyuga Shoyo back to CCG Headquarters.

After returning to the CCG, Itachi resumed his studies, spending practically every day in the library.
Hyuga Shoyo, meanwhile, began getting acquainted
