Naruto: I'm really not an evil scientist!

"Perhaps you will need to wait ten, twenty, or even thirty years before you have the strength to compete with him."

"Think it over carefully. With my influence, I can put in a good word for you with Yagura and improve your status."

After saying this, Hiruko gave the order to leave, telling Terumi Mei to go.

Just as Mei Terumi lowered her head in deep thought, Hiruko quietly used the Mirror Flower Water Moon Technique.

He extracted some flesh and blood samples from Mei Terumi, and then used his own medicine to quickly restore her body to its original state without leaving any trace.

Having the opportunity to harvest flesh and blood is better than skimming off the scraps.

All of this happened without anyone noticing, and Mei Terumi was completely unaware of anything unusual.

The next second, Hiruko dispelled the Mirror Flower Water Moon Technique.

Mei Terumi was slightly taken aback, feeling as if something was missing from her body, but upon closer inspection, she found that nothing was missing.

She shook her head, not thinking much about it, and instead tried even harder to think about what Hiruko had said.

Unlike Kakashi, Rin Nohara, and others who had no background and were like blank sheets of paper, she was different.

Mei Terumi began studying the position of Mizukage at a very young age, demonstrating such lofty ambitions; she is indeed a rare talent.

Hiruko thought to herself that if she were to become the next Mizukage, then the entire Hidden Mist Village might fall under her control.

Of course, what he wanted was not to completely control Kirigakure, but rather to have an ally that was relatively easy to control in the future, when everything had settled down.

If Mei Terumi could become the Mizukage, it would undoubtedly be much easier for her compared to others.

After all, in the original work, Obito was able to control Yagura, and Hiruko was confident that he could also manipulate Mei Terumi.

Moreover, Mei Terumi will probably never get married in her lifetime, since not everyone can withstand the corrosive effects of her strong acid.

Furthermore, the invasion of the Otsutsuki clan, an alien race, in the future is already a foregone conclusion.

Hiruko's current task is to plan ahead and bring the entire ninja world under her control.

The meeting in Kirigakure was held in a tight and efficient manner. Night fell quietly, and even the moon was hidden behind the clouds. The entire village could only rely on lamps for lighting.

Hearing faint, hurried footsteps outside the courtyard, Hiruko knew that Terumi Mei had come to bring him "snacks".

With a creak, the door was pushed open, and Terumi Mei, carrying a tray, saw Hiruko sitting cross-legged in the middle of the room.

Most of the houses in Kirigakure are built of stone, which is quite different from the architectural style of Konoha.

Since most of the ninjas in Kirigakure are proficient in water-style ninjutsu, the impact resistance of their houses must be taken into consideration.

Moreover, such an environment is very suitable for using ninjutsu such as Boil Release and Lava Release—in the Five Kage Summit in the original work, Mei Terumi released these two bloodline limits in the building to deal with Sasuke.

"My lady, your midnight snack has arrived," Mei Terumi gently reminded him.

Hiruko then slowly got up, took the plate from her hand, sat on the stool, and by the candlelight, slowly and deliberately put the food into his mouth.

Mei Terumi carefully observed Hiruko's every move, not missing a single detail.

Hiruko naturally knew that she was already prepared.

After all, in the dog-eat-dog world of Kirigakure, strength is the only thing that matters.

Although the current Kirigakure is not as cruel as the Blood Mist, the ancient systems of Kirigakure cannot be completely eradicated in just one or two years.

In the original work, even decades later, Ao is still scolding Chojuro and mentioning various things from their era.

Therefore, the best way to deal with these Hidden Mist ninjas is to crush them with absolute strength—I am stronger than you, so you have to listen to me.

After finishing the last bite of his meal, Hiruko slowly drank some water, then smiled and said, "Let's get started!"

To make empty promises to others, one must at least demonstrate one's own capabilities, and Hiruko certainly had that confidence.

As soon as she finished speaking, Mei Terumi immediately took a stance, forming hand seals and releasing a simple Water Release: Water Chaos Wave as her starting move.

This move has almost zero attack power, but its impact should not be underestimated.

However, Hiruko simply raised her hand and used Wood Release technique.

In an instant, a tree that wasn't too big grew in front of him, and the water was quickly sucked into the branches the moment it touched the tree.

Immediately afterwards, the vines multiplied wildly and spread towards Mei Terumi.

Mei Terumi was stunned when she saw this—it was Wood Release!

Different places produce ninjas with different attributes, but Konoha only has one Wood Release ninja, and that is the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju.

Wood Release ninjas are extremely rare; aside from the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, almost no one has been able to master it.

Previously, the Wood Release techniques used on the battlefield were considered by others to be disposable scientific research products.

The next second, Hiruko manipulated the vines of the trees and shot towards Mei Terumi, like a miniature version of the True Thousand Hands, constantly attacking her.

The vines brushed against the ground, creating gusts of wind, as if the slightest deviation would hit Mei Terumi.

Hiruko would often teach some children ninjutsu, and among these children, Mei Terumi was probably the strongest.

However, she is now 18 years old and can be considered an adult.

In the original work, she was a ninja who could go toe-to-toe with Madara Uchiha, and her talent was so great that she was the best among the younger generation.

Facing Hiruko's attack, Mei Terumi did not hesitate at all and immediately unleashed her strongest killing move.

However, she felt quite helpless in the face of Wood Release's ability to absorb chakra.

Although the defense constructed by Wood Release is not as effective as the Animal Path in the Rinnegan, which can form a 360-degree barrier without any blind spots.

However, it would not be easy for Terumi to easily attack Hiruko, who was protected by the power of Wood Release.

The next moment, white mist, like a gushing heat wave from a kettle, instantly filled the entire room.

Most people, upon first seeing this scene, might mistake it for an ordinary mist concealment technique, but once they are immersed in it, they will be surprised to find that it is by no means an ordinary mist concealment technique.

This ninjutsu, with its bizarre and powerful nature, can be considered an absolute bug.

If you don't know their background, you will suffer greatly when you first see them.

In an instant, the fog enveloped the area, completely obscuring Hiruko's figure.

However, this is nothing more than an illusion, a mirage.

In the next instant, Hiruko had already left the area covered by the thick fog.

Although Mei Terumi's ninjutsu was powerful, it was not enough to pose a real threat to Hiruko.

She had come here to test and learn about Hiruko's background, but unexpectedly, she was met with astonishment from Terumi Mei.

Hiruko broke free of the fog and appeared in front of her instantly. One of his hands gripped her throat like an iron clamp and lifted her up.

"Forehead!"

"do not want!"

In an instant, Mei Terumi's forehead was covered in beads of sweat.

"Let me go!"

"what!"

Chapter 118 Eating Mei Terumi

The ninjas of Kirigakure are generally extremely resilient to blows. Although this attack was fierce, it only caused Mei Terumi's body to tremble slightly.

What truly shocked her was that Hiruko could so easily ignore her bloodstained ninjutsu attacks.

As the white mist in the room gradually dissipated, the concentration of chakra also decreased.

Hiruko opened his eyes, calmly looking at the girl whose throat he was gripping, a playful smile playing on his lips: "Any other tricks up your sleeve?"

Mei Terumi, despite having her neck choked, refused to back down and immediately formed hand seals, suddenly spitting out a viscous chakra substance resembling butter.

Hiruko merely glanced at it indifferently, not bothering to avoid it at all.

The next second, this chakra substance directly pierced through Hiruko's figure.

"It's not good for a girl to spit things out; it doesn't look very clean," Hiruko said softly, her tone slightly teasing.

Terumi Mei looked at Hiruko in horror.

Because she clearly sensed a force pressing down on her, choking her, but the figure in front of her was clearly an illusion.

This is precisely the power of Hirukona derived from the bloodline limit of the Kurama clan, similar to the illusion technique of Susanoo.

Illusions that transform illusion into reality and distort reality.

The illusions he creates are exactly the same as his real body, but they possess the power of a physical entity, enough to completely suppress his opponents, yet they can also instantly transform into illusions.

"I lost..." Mei Terumi finally faced reality and lowered her head helplessly.

With a thought, Hiruko quickly and tightly closed the door to the room.

Upon hearing the sound, Terumi Mei immediately understood Hiruko's intention, but a sly glint flashed in her eyes.

She still has one last trump card – her special physical condition.

It was the highly corrosive acid inside her body.

However, Hiruko's technological capabilities should not be underestimated.

Early in the afternoon, he had already obtained a blood sample from Terumi Mei and quickly developed a drug that could temporarily prevent the corrosive effects of strong acid.

Soon, Hiruko injected the medicine into his body.

The next second, Hiruko's actions had already begun.

With a tearing sound, Mei Terumi's hidden "weapon" sprang out and was exposed to Hiruko's eyes.

A flicker of fear crossed Mei Terumi's eyes, but she quickly smiled brightly, trying to hide her inner turmoil.

Hiruko stared intently into her eyes, which, besides their composure, concealed a deep-seated fear.

After all, she was still an 18-year-old girl. Despite her extraordinary courage and special physique, she was bound to feel scared in the face of such a situation.

It should be noted that her constitution is extremely special; even an ordinary person would likely die instantly if they came into contact with just a little bit of her acid.

Therefore, for most people, Mei Terumi is undoubtedly a walking poison flower.

Of course, she skillfully concealed her sharpness, and her gentle demeanor gave people a sense of distance, making her seem unapproachable.

But this was a last resort, because no matter how carefully she controlled her abilities, she couldn't avoid harming those around her 24 hours a day.
