Commander Uchiha, we respect and love you!

Chapter 259 Another Universe

It's just very slow.

The next moment, the hamster leaped and disappeared into the portal.

Inside the laboratory, the portal in front of them suddenly rippled, and a thing covered in sores, resembling an undead or zombie, jumped out from it.

Upon returning to this universe, the squirrel's body began to heal rapidly, and it jumped back into Uchiha Kazuto's body, becoming his hand once again.

"really……"

Sensing the data transmitted back from his hand, Uchiha Kazuto immediately smiled. That's right, the world on the other side was not the ninja world, but a new and completely unfamiliar universe.

In the perception of that part of his body, the world opposite was clearly a planet inhabited by life. Unfortunately, the squirrel's visual cells were damaged after only collecting a few visual images due to particle mismatch.

His eyes turned into a mass of rotten flesh. The reason he was able to run back was not because he was driven by biological energy, but because his soul carried those substances back.

Ordinary people's souls naturally do not have this ability, but he is different. He had long since transformed his life form and materialized his soul, which is why that body was able to return after losing its life characteristics.

It's not easy either.

'It seems that my soul can indeed exist in different universes, but...'

Uchiha Kazuto continued reading and analyzing this data. He concluded that the materialization of the soul was the reason he believed he could explore the other world.

If he were still in his previous life form, with his body and soul clearly separated, and he were to travel to another world, his body would decay and collapse, leaving only a fragment of his soul, rendering him incapable of doing anything.

Unlike now, a broken soul can escape with its physical form.

Furthermore, given his current life form, his soul is regenerable, unlike in some worlds where damage to the soul would become real harm, which is irrelevant to him.

However, it's unclear whether it's because he's been in the Naruto universe for too long, or whether his soul simply cannot truly exist in any universe.

Through data analysis, he discovered that his soul was also constantly collapsing and disintegrating after entering that world, but at a very slow pace. In fact, it seemed that his soul was constantly adapting and changing its form, albeit at a very slow speed.

"Hmm, it seems that exploring other universes is indeed feasible!"

Uchiha Kazuto nodded, deep in thought. He was naturally not satisfied with just the Naruto world, even if it had a large number of parallel universes, the population resources were still too few.

The only thing that worried him was whether his eye technique would be useful in other worlds.
If it cannot be used, then the exploration of other universes will have to wait until its scale is truly increased before it can be considered.

He consistently believed that if a so-called characteristic couldn't be used in other universes, it wasn't due to a conflict of rules, but simply because its scale was insufficient.

Just like how a black pig can't play Black Lives Matter or other special rules when it comes to some powerful countries, it's not because it can't play, but because the other countries don't need to pay attention to their rules. Try it with some small countries.
It's like the rules of a weak universe failing when they come to a powerful universe, while the rules of a powerful universe can completely destroy the rules of a weak universe.

This isn't because the rules of a powerful universe are superior to those of a weaker universe; it's simply because the powerful universe is on a larger scale. If the scale of a weaker universe were increased, the balance of power would reverse, and the rules of the weaker universe would be able to completely overwhelm the previously powerful universe.

There is no such thing as status, no such thing as innate nobility, and no such thing as reason. There is only a matter of magnitude.

If the scale is large enough, even if you make the whole world eat shit and spread a bunch of nonsensical things, it will be regarded as some kind of wise saying.

It was precisely because of this understanding that Uchiha Kazuto had such thoughts.

'What a pity, if only I had an invincible system.'

Uchiha Kazuto thought regretfully that if he had a system, he wouldn't need anyone to research time travel technology; he could just hand it over to the system without any problems. He also wouldn't have to worry about universe compatibility issues, which the system could handle.

Unfortunately, he was just an ordinary person.

In addition, seemingly due to the characteristics of the soul, the squirrel that his hand turned into remained under his control after entering the other universe, although the data transmission was somewhat blurry because it was another universe.

However, it is generally perceptible and controllable.

Subsequently, Uchiha Kazuto had a stable interdimensional portal opened in a hidden location, intending to take action personally.

There's no way around it; he simply doesn't want to do things himself. If he has to do everything, what's the point of having subordinates?

But there's no way around it; no one in the entire empire can survive in another universe. Perhaps with technological advancements, one day they'll be able to let people from their universe travel freely to other universes.

However, this is clearly not feasible at the current stage. At most, we can only collect data from other universes and try to create special equipment to allow people from different universes to travel to different universes.

However, what Uchiha Kazuto was most concerned about was not these things, but whether his eye technique could be used in the other universe at the current stage.

So he tore off half of his body and entered this alien universe. Anyway, for a special life form like him, it didn't matter if his soul was annihilated, as he could regenerate at any time.

For most people, losing half their soul is practically a death sentence, but for Uchiha Kazuto, it's just losing a piece of flesh; it will grow back in time, and he won't die at all.

Unfortunately, this kind of knowledge, which involves connecting to other universes, is a complete blind spot in the Empire's technology tree. The current spacetime portal appeared entirely by accident.

For now, creating such a time portal is already the limit. Uchiha Kazuto's half of his body was cut into pieces and sent over piece by piece. If it were sent in all at once, it would probably cause the time portal to explode.

In another universe, the bodies of Uchiha and Toru, which had been reduced to meatball-like shapes, merged together to form a humanoid figure.

"Another universe..."
