Naruto: The village was on the verge of bankruptcy, and I struck oil.

His eyes were already bloodshot.

Extremely frightening.

The assistant brain's voice sounded in the cockpit.

"The driver's brainwaves and hormone levels have deviated from normal by 180%, indicating an extremely dangerous state."

"According to the human-machine agreement, we are now forcibly taking over control of the machine to save the pilot."

As the sound rang out, several tubes with needles extended from the wall and were inserted into Juechen's body.

"Inject a powerful sedative."

Blue*** sedative was injected into the body.

In his excitement, Juechen's eyelids drooped and he fell into a deep sleep.

"To receive medical treatment."

Nutrient solution is sprayed out from holes throughout the cockpit, and once the cockpit is filled with nutrient solution, it becomes a treatment chamber.

Juechen was completely immersed in the green nutrient solution.

The tubes inserted into the body deliver various medications.

Everything is getting better.

The pieces of Otsutsuki Urashiki's body were falling down.

His head and eyes were wide open.

His eyes were filled with disbelief.

"How is that possible?!"

"How could I be defeated by a bunch of cavemen?"

"How could I be defeated by food?!"

"No, I absolutely cannot die."

"My Otsutsuki clan will live forever."

Wedge activated!

The Karma is a unique ability originating from the Otsutsuki clan. Members of the Otsutsuki clan can replicate themselves, digitize their own data, and then implant it into another person's body. The recipient is called a "vessel," and a black diamond-shaped mark appears on the palm of the vessel as its initial symbol—this mark is the Karma. Specifically, the Karma is a compressed "backup file of the Otsutsuki." This compressed file gradually "thaws" over time, and this thawing can be accelerated through battle. When all the data is thawed, the vessel's body is "replaced" by the Otsutsuki's own data, and the vessel's existence completely disappears, thus reviving the Otsutsuki. As long as the Karma remains, the Otsutsuki will be resurrected; they are beings beyond death.

A black wedge mark rapidly began to form inside Urashiki Otsutsuki's brain.

Where can we find the instrument?

The selection of the "vessel" (or "wedge") is subject to extremely strict requirements! If the vessel's body is flawed, it cannot withstand the Ōtsutsuki's chakra during reincarnation, preventing the Ōtsutsuki from fully reviving and causing him to die within a few days. The Ōtsutsuki can delay the reincarnation process, but once he dies, the thawed "vessel" will automatically enter the reincarnation state. Even the Ōtsutsuki cannot control this process; the wedge has strict rules. Furthermore, even if the "vessel" is burned to a crisp, the Ōtsutsuki can revive as long as the Ōtsutsuki's body bearing the wedge remains, allowing it to function as a reincarnation vessel. When reincarnation is completed using one of the "vessels," the wedge mark on the same "vessel" disappears simultaneously, regardless of how many identical "vessels" are used.

But right now we're high in the air, and there are only two people around us.

An empty self, a person inside a giant machine monster.

Then it can only be him.

Urashiki Otsutsuki can only take a gamble.

His eyes were fixed on the Gundam, which was suspended in mid-air.

"emission."

The black wedge shot towards the Gundam.

The black wedge is a biological data entity, posing no obvious danger and not triggering the Gundam's automatic defense measures.

However, its process of entering the Gundam's body to search for the pilot attracted the attention of the auxiliary brain.

"Intrusion of foreign data detected."

"Suspected virus."

"Unable to verify, inconsistent with existing virus data."

"Then we will perform backup storage and proceed with the next step of the research."

"Data intrusion cannot be stopped."

"Unstoppable."

"Data intrusion into the cockpit."

"Initiate ejection now, cockpit and fuselage detach."

"Unidentified data information stream backup data sent back to headquarters."

"All recorded information is sent back to headquarters."

"The machine self-destructs."

Whoosh.

The cockpit popped out from the Gundam's chest.

But ultimately, the speed is still the slow wedge-like forward speed.

The black wedge was driven into Juechen's forehead and invaded his body, leaving a black rhombus mark on his palm.

The cockpit ejected towards the air fortress.

Gundam's actions have left Sky Fortress and Sky Squadron quite puzzled.

The enemy has been defeated, so why is the ejection activated?

Immediately afterwards, the Gundam exploded.

This made everyone even more confused.

The captain of the Fifth Division in the fortress received a report from his team members.

"Captain, we have received data from the V Gundam."

"In addition to the data and video footage recorded during the battle, there was also a strange set of data."

While instructing his team to retrieve the cockpit, Ye checked the data.

After reading it, I was even more confused.

What exactly is this data?

Did they make Gundam choose to self-destruct after the intrusion?

This is strange.

"We should quickly leverage the village's resources to have the research institute conduct studies."

Urashiki Ōtsutsuki never expected that his data would be copied countless times.

It was also his bad luck that the Sand Village combined biological and mechanical technology, which was exactly what they were targeting the Otsutsuki clan.

Chapter 443 Mu Feng's Otsutsuki Research Log

What exactly is a wedge?

In fact, in terms of its function, it is very similar to Agent Smith, the villain in The Matrix.

Agent Smith is an ordinary antivirus program within the Matrix's programming world. His duty, like that of other agents, is to eliminate objects harmful to the Matrix.

Smith later developed self-awareness, and then he himself became a virus that kept multiplying.

He has no physical body within the Matrix, but can borrow the bodies of anyone connected to it. As an antivirus program, he was granted superhuman abilities by the Matrix, possessing the power to punch through a concrete wall. Within the Matrix, he has the ability to rewrite the programming of human characters, allowing him to continuously borrow other people's bodies.

In the first film's ending, Neo, resurrected as the savior, hacked into Smith's program and destroyed him. The reason Neo was ultimately able to destroy Smith was because his resurrection granted him the ability to recognize the Matrix code and the superhuman privilege to easily rewrite it, thus preventing the agents from using their superpowers to defeat him.

According to the rules of the matrix, if an antivirus program fails to remove harmful objects and is instead destroyed by them, the matrix will delete the antivirus program (because this means that the antivirus program is no longer effective).

Therefore, after Smith was destroyed by Neo, according to this rule, Smith should have been deleted by the Matrix and completely disappeared.

However, since Smith killed Neo before being eliminated by him, Smith did indeed complete his mission and should not be deleted.

But Neo later destroyed Smith, so Smith should have been removed from the game.

This is clearly a logical error that contradicts itself, and a matrix, which operates strictly according to the equation, cannot handle such a logical error.

Smith was killed by someone he had already killed, which is impossible according to the Matrix. As a result of this logical error in the program, Smith became a program that could not be judged by the system. As a result, Smith broke free from the control of the Matrix, not only refusing to be deleted by the system, but also transforming from an antivirus program into a virus.

He can continuously infect other programs, turning them into himself to repeatedly replicate himself and gain their privileges. Smith then continues to expand within the Matrix.

Infecting others and replicating them as oneself is exactly the same as Wedge.

The differences include the replication speed, the number of people who can be replicated, and the number of clones that can exist.

But most importantly, Smith is a program, a piece of code, and even a virus falls within the scope of machine civilization.

The Otsutsuki clan is different; they are not programs but living beings.

In biological terms, that is the genetic material, also known as the hereditary factor, which is a chemical substance that determines the hereditary characteristics of an organism.

Genes are the primary material basis for storing and transmitting genetic information and for cell replication. Genetic information is stored and transmitted from one generation of cells to the next and from one individual to its offspring.

Genes have two characteristics: first, they can faithfully replicate themselves to maintain the basic characteristics of an organism; second, genes can mutate.

The vast majority of mutations lead to disease, while a small percentage are non-pathogenic mutations. Non-pathogenic mutations provide the raw material for natural selection, allowing organisms to be selected for the most suitable individuals in the natural selection process.

The Ōtsutsuki clan's wedges do not possess the ability to mutate; they can only stably replicate themselves.

This stability is similar to a well-written, stable program.

In other words, the Otsutsuki clan possesses characteristics of both biological and machine civilizations.

There is reason to believe that the Ōtsutsuki clan may not have been a naturally occurring race.

Perhaps they are also some kind of race created through biological programming.

Of course, all of this still needs to be explored.

With the aerial fortress war over, Momoshiki Otsutsuki and Kinshiki Otsutsuki are also approaching the Allied Shinobi Forces' battlefield.

As the two were flying, they suddenly looked back in the direction they had come from.
