Analyzing the Ninja World Starting from Konoha

Chapter 336 White Zetsu Vaccine?!

"Lord Kazekage, you wanted to see me?"

Yashamaru pushed open the door and knelt on one knee.

Rasa looked at Yashamaru for a moment before saying, "Yashamaru, I need you to conduct a test on Gaara."

"test?"

Yashamaru suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with shock.

He certainly knew what the so-called "test" meant.

That wasn't a regular ninjutsu test at all; it was an assassination attempt!

The most extreme life-or-death crises are used to stimulate the emotions of the Jinchūriki, in order to test their control and stability over the tailed beasts within them.

Before Gaara, the One-Tailed Beast was sealed into two children.

However, both children were unable to withstand such extreme stimulation, causing the tail inside their bodies to go berserk, ultimately resulting in their tragic deaths on the spot.

"Kage-sama! Gaara is still too young!"

Yashamaru pleaded, "Please, wait a few more years, until he's a little older and more mature—"

"It's too late."

Luo Sha interrupted him, his voice cold.

"Yakura is back. The situation in the village is worse than you think. The current Sunagakure is in decline, its military is insufficient, and the daimyo is constantly cutting our funding."

"We don't have time to slowly cultivate a hothouse flower anymore!"

"What Sunagakure needs now is an ultimate weapon capable of intimidating other nations! Not a monster that can't even control its own emotions!"

"This test is to assess his control and stability as a Jinchūriki. If he can control Shukaku, it will prove that he has the value to become a weapon."

"What if we fail?"

Yashamaru asked in a trembling voice.

Luo Sha's eyes remained completely unmoved.

"If he loses control, it proves he's just a defective product. To protect the interests of Sunagakure, we will replace him with a different Jinchuriki!"

Yashamaru's face turned pale instantly.

That's your child!

"Yashamaru, you are Karura's younger brother and Gaara's most trusted person. It will be most effective for you to conduct this test."

"Go and prepare! Remember—"

"All of this is for the village!"

Yashamaru closed his eyes in pain.

"Yes—Lord Kazekage."

Meanwhile, high above Sunagakure.

Toneri floated silently in the sky, looking down at Sunagakure.

"So this is Sunagakure, the village of the Land of Wind. I never expected there to be a village in a place like this."

A blue vein appeared in his right eye as he activated his white eye.

The entire village of Sunagakure can be seen in its entirety.

With the Byakugan's penetrating vision, the flow of chakra among all the ninjas in Sunagakure was clearly visible in his field of vision.

In the Byakugan's field of vision, a typical ninja's chakra appears like a faint flame.

But one clump of chakra stood out like a torch in the night.

It was a vast and violent chakra, yet it was sealed within an extremely small container.

That was exactly what he was looking for.

"Found it, the One-Tailed Chakra."

The servant's gaze locked onto that direction.

Then he saw that the Tailed Beast was actually sealed inside a child?

A flicker of struggle flashed in Sheren's eyes.

The scene before him overlapped with a scene from Sheren's memory.

That version of myself on the moon was equally lonely, equally forgotten by everyone.

Lonely?

No, Elder—

Who is the Grand Elder?

But in the very next second—

The Rinnegan in his left eye glowed slightly, and a cold will surged into his mind like a tide.

Those illusory memories once again took over.

The servant's expression returned to its indifferent state.

Konoha, inside the hospital laboratory.

Yamashiro Aoba stood in front of a sophisticated instrument, carefully observing the data displayed on it.

At the same time, a faint blue light emanated from its eyes as the chip rapidly analyzed the data before it.

On the lab table, there were more than a dozen test tubes containing blood.

The blood in the test tubes all showed different colors.

Some were still a normal bright red, while others began to darken, and in a few of them, the blood inside had turned completely milky white.

It is no different from the fluid inside White Zetsu's body.

At the same time, the current experimental data is projected onto the retina.

[Sample A: Hyuga Munenori (Elder), blood leukemia level 78%, abnormally high cell activity, showing a trend of transformation into an unknown life form —]

[Sample B: Hyuga XX (Second Elder), blood leukopenia level 99%, completely transformed into white Zetsu cells, original DNA information chain collapsed, irreversible ————]

[Sample C: Hyuga XX (Fourth Elder), same as above ————]

Although Elder Hyuga took the full force of Shisui's Susanoo's Eight-Span Magatama, he did not die on the spot and was even miraculously saved by the medical team.

The white blood cells that were eroded in his body played a significant role in this.

But precisely because of this, his entire body was transforming into a White Zetsu, which Aoba named "White Zetsu Transformation".

Normal spores should absorb the host's chakra, then divide and multiply before finally bursting out of the body.

But now it's no longer simple parasitism, but assimilation, completely transforming the host into its own kind at the cellular level.

He picked up several other test tubes, which contained blood samples taken from other controlled Hyuga ninjas.

The blood of these individuals also showed varying degrees of leukopenia.

"Most people have a chance to be saved because the erosion period is short, but those like the Second Elder and the Third Elder, who have been completely eroded, are beyond saving."

However, what Aoba was interested in at the moment was not how to save them.

Rather, it's the process of "White Zetsu transformation"!

"The biggest risks of conventional interstitial cell transplantation or white blood cell transplantation are rejection and lignification."

"Once the immense life force cannot be suppressed, the transplant recipient will turn into a tree."

"But this kind of erosion initiated by White Zetsu carries absolutely no such risk!"

"It's like a virus, silently altering the host's genes."

"But what if this erosion process is controllable! Or even stops halfway through?"

So, can those who are corrupted possess some of the abilities of White Zetsu while maintaining their self-awareness?

For example, the Uchiha clan!

The Uchiha clan members who possess White Zetsu cells can not only awaken their Mangekyou Sharingan faster, but they also do not go blind after awakening it.

Obito was able to use the Mangekyou Sharingan without restriction because he had Hashirama's cells transplanted into him.

If we could extract the gene fragment responsible for "erosion" from the white spores, weaken and modify it, and create a special drug that could be injected into other people's bodies—

Huh? ? ?

Isn't this just a vaccine?!

Aoba clapped his hands, wondering why he hadn't thought of that.

If a vaccine is successfully developed, we can simply inject the Uchiha clan members directly.

Another question is whether this kind of erosion can also be applied to other people.

For example, is it feasible to replace leukocytes with bloodline boundaries?

A flash of inspiration struck Aoba, and he no longer hesitated.

Clap your hands together.

"Reverse Spirit Communication Technique!"

boom!

As the white smoke dissipated, Qingye's figure vanished completely.

The medical ninjas in the lab exchanged glances, then shook their heads and continued working.

This isn't the first time something like this has happened.

They were already used to Aoba's tendency to suddenly disappear whenever he thought of something.

After half an hour.

A masked ninja appeared at the laboratory entrance.

"Is Lord Aoba here? The Hokage has summoned you with important business."

The people in the lab shrugged helplessly.

"Lord Aoba has left again, and I don't know where he went."

"7

The ANBU ninja remained silent for a moment.

"————It's like this again."

Sunagakure Village.

-

Thanks to Aoba's intervention, Sunagakure's air defense system was greatly improved.

The towering building not only houses shuriken launching platforms, but also has dedicated sensory ninjas and patrol personnel with high-powered binoculars, who monitor the sky day and night.

Therefore, when Toneri appeared in the sky above Sunagakure, he was quickly spotted by the people of Sunagakure.

Wow!!!

The piercing whistle quickly spread throughout the entire village.

"Enemy invasion! Up there!"

Sheren frowned as he watched the commotion below.

Meanwhile, Sunagakure's air defense system was quickly activated, with several anti-air shuriken launchers starting simultaneously.

"Fire!"

With a command from the commander.

Whoosh whoosh!

A dense barrage of shuriken rushed towards the attendant.

However, Sheren's face remained completely expressionless in the face of such an attack.

"A boring toy."

He simply raised his hand slightly.

An invisible repulsive force erupted.

The shuriken aimed at her seemed to have hit an invisible wall, and then flew back at an even faster speed.

Bang bang bang!

The buildings below were riddled with holes by the rebounding shuriken, and screams filled the air.

Ignoring the commotion below, Toneri flew directly toward Gaara.

"Protect the Jinchūriki!"

The surrounding Sunagakure ANBU members appeared one after another, wielding kunai, shuriken, and explosive tags, and recklessly hurling them at Toneri.

Boom boom boom!

The flames of the explosion engulfed Sheren, but the next second, an even more terrifying repulsive force erupted.

Shinra Tensei!

, 7

The shockwave instantly cleared the area. The surrounding Sand Village ninjas didn't even have time to scream before they were all blown away and slammed heavily against the walls, their fates unknown.

Gaara clutched the tattered doll tightly in his arms, staring in horror at the person before him.

He could feel the suffocating pressure emanating from the other person, which was even more terrifying than Shukaku inside him!

Whoosh!

Without Gaara's deliberate control, the sand automatically surged up and attacked Toneri.

The servant simply extended one hand.

As soon as the sand got close, the chakra attached to it was instantly absorbed by the Rinnegan.

The sand lost its power and turned into ordinary soil scattered all over the ground.

Just as Toneri was about to touch Gaara.

Whoosh!

Gold dust surged from the ground, instantly wrapping around Gaara's waist and pulling him violently backward.

"Um?"

'

The servant missed his chance, frowned slightly, and turned to look.

Luo Sha was seen flying in mid-air, stepping on a golden sand mat, arms crossed, looking down at She Ren.

When Rasa saw Toneri's ring-shaped purple Rinnegan, his pupils suddenly contracted.

"Rinnegan—you're from that rogue ninja organization?!"

The servant raised his head, a flash of anger in his eyes.

"Inferior creatures actually use such crude methods to fly."

He raised his right hand and aimed it at Luo Sha in mid-air.

"Universal Guidance!"

An irresistible and terrifying suction force erupted instantly, and Rasa was uncontrollably sent flying toward Toneri.

However, there was no sign of panic on Luo Sha's face.

He also received information about the Rinnegan.

Everyone should be prepared when they see the Rinnegan.

"Magnetic Release: Gold Sand Shuriken!"

Using the terrifying suction of the Universal Pull, the Golden Sand Shuriken shot toward Toneri at an astonishing speed!

"Useless cleverness."

Sheren snorted coldly, and the originally enormous suction force was reversed in an instant.

"Shinra Tensei!"

boom!

The terrifying repulsive force erupted once more, instantly shattering the golden sand shuriken and sending Rasa himself flying, crashing into a building.

Just as Toneri was preparing to continue capturing Gaara.

Whoosh whoosh!

Countless kunai covered with explosive tags suddenly flew in from all directions, almost blocking all of Toneri's escape routes.

Rumble!

A violent explosion rang out, instantly engulfing Sheren.

As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, a black sphere appeared before everyone.

A number of people appeared around.

Yoko, Chiyo, and — Sasori of the Red Sand!

Chiyo originally planned to wait for a suitable opportunity to let Sasori return to Sunagakure under a "rehabilitated" identity.

But now, with a powerful enemy invading and the tailed beast targeting the village, she couldn't care less about anything else and simply dragged her grandson out.

Sasori's appearance did indeed attract the attention of many Sand Village ninjas. The lower-ranking Sand Village ninjas were unaware, but the higher-ups were generally aware that the previous Kazekage had died at his hands.

However, with a formidable enemy at hand, no one has time to dwell on these matters.

"This guy's eyes—the Rinnegan!"

The black sphere began to deform, while the attendant remained completely unharmed, and the black sphere transformed into a scepter that appeared in the attendant's hand.

"That thing should be made of the same material as the black rod."

Ye Cang's expression was solemn.

She learned a lot of information from Aoba and instantly realized how dangerous the thing was, so she immediately took action to warn it.

"Be careful of that black stick, don't touch it."

Chiyo glanced at Yekura.

The roll was removed immediately.

"White Secret Technique: Chikamatsu Ten Guards!"

Swish swish swish!!!

Ten puppets flew out, and Scorpion also released his own puppet, but it was not the third-generation puppet, but another person's puppet.

The entire puppet is made of white bones and was given to Sasori by Kimimaro.

At this moment, Luo Sha also rushed out of the ruins, his face looking rather grim.

"Let's do it!"

Chiyo shouted and waved her hands.

"Scorching Release: Overheating and Killing!"

Yecang pushed with both hands, and several fireballs roared out.

The puppet mechanism, Magnet Release: Gold Sand, and the surrounding Sand Village ninjas combined their attacks, making them even more powerful than before.

The player could only defend with the black ball again.

However, this time, cracks appeared on the surface of the black ball.

Sheren frowned, not expecting that these people could actually break through his black sphere.

"Annoying bugs."

Sheren raised his hand, and several black chakra beads appeared out of thin air in his palm.

He raised his hand and turned it, and the prayer beads began to spin rapidly.

As it rotated, the Truth-Seeking Ball's surface was rapidly covered with a dazzling green chakra, eventually forming a brilliant silver halo.

"Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!"
