Naruto: From Capturing the Main Clan to Becoming the Mastermind

Chapter 73 Releasing the Caged Bird

"Are you sure you want to do it yourself?"

Inside the laboratory, Tsunade handed Hyuga Yu a scroll containing the Split Technique and a potion, reminding him, "There are still risks. With me by your side, I can save your life in the most dangerous situations."

"No need, Tsunade-senpai. You still have a lot of medicine to produce. It's just a little risky, so you don't need to worry about it."

"It's nothing, it's nothing. If anyone should be thanking you, it's yourselves. If you hadn't brought this creature back, I wouldn't know how to talk to the live slug."

Tsunade's gaze shifted to the White Zetsu corpse beside her, and she frowned.

Experiments have shown that this guy's cells can also be used as the main material for the division agent, and the risk of the agent produced is even lower than that of the agent made from live slug cells.

If this creature were to practice dividing itself, it would likely succeed in a short time, with a very low probability of encountering problems.

To actually create this monster using your grandfather's cells... Uchiha Madara, you just wait!

Hinata Yuya stared at the corpse, his eyes flickering.

After discussing it with Minato, he decided to tell Tsunade about the White Zetsu.

The others can be kept in the dark for now, but White Zetsu may be related to the First Hokage's cells, and Tsunade, the First Hokage's granddaughter, has the right to know.

"If you weren't currently the Hokage's assistant, and having the Caged Bird Seal on your head would be too much of a problem, I would actually prefer you to wait."

Suppressing her anger, Tsunade said to Hyuga Yu, "Although it's only in the experimental stage, the medicine made from this white creature is clearly milder. Are you sure you don't want to wait?"

She had only had the White Zetsu corpse for a few days and had made some progress, but it would still take some time before it was finished. The medicine she gave to Hinata Yu was made from live slug cells.

"If you consider the risks in everything, you won't take the first step. Having the medicine to help is already very good. I will use it cautiously."

Hinata Yu smiled, turned and walked towards the door. "By the way, please don't tell anyone about this yet."

"I see."

Watching Hyuga leave the laboratory, Tsunade put gloves on her hands and continued studying the White Zetsu corpse.

Although she felt it wasn't right to do this just because it was made from her grandfather's cells, the white Zetsu cells had so many uses.

It has abundant vitality, but its nature is very mild, which is completely different from the Wood Release experimental data obtained from the Root.

The grandfather's original cells must have been extremely aggressive. For some reason, the white blood cells did not have this characteristic. Perhaps their vitality had also decreased, but they had become more universal.

If the research is thorough, it may be possible to create human limbs using White Zetsu cells in the future, which would then be able to treat various disabilities and represent a major advancement in medical ninjutsu!

Furthermore, according to Hyuga Yu, Obito used his eye techniques many times without experiencing the same difficulty as Fugaku. Could this also be related to these cells?

After all, one difference between Obito and Fugaku is that Obito knows Wood Release, which clearly shows that he transplanted his grandfather's cells.

If that's the case, she might be able to get Fugaku to accept her favor and then completely hand over the consulting work to him in the future.

So, grandfather, please dedicate yourself to medicine.

Anyway, it's just an organism you cultured in your cells, so please don't take offense.

……

"Preparation is complete, so let's begin."

In his experimental base, Hyuga Yu looked at Nohara Rin, Ranmaru, and the ninja wearing the Sand Village headband in front of him, smiled slightly, injected himself with the medicine, and formed the hand seals for the Split Technique.

He had practiced this many times before and was very proficient in the splitting technique.

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, who are not here now, can guarantee that Hyuga Habu's mastery of the Split Technique is definitely among the top three in the ninja world.

After all, it was experience they gained from dying and recovering countless times... This demon!

Seeing Hyuga Yu gradually split in two, the body that possessed the Caged Bird Seal immediately fell silent. The Caged Bird Seal had been passively activated, damaging his brain nerves and eyes. Rin turned her gaze to Ranmaru and said softly:

Please.

"Um."

Ranmaru activated his red eyes, ready to help Rin restore her life force.

Following the instructions of the Seven-Tails, Rin placed her palm on Hyuga Yu, who had already opened his eyes, and the tailed beast chakra gradually began to transfer to him.

Silently, the enormous body of the Seven-Tails appeared in Hyuga Yu's mental space.

It sensed Hinata's weakened body and became somewhat restless.

This seems like an opportunity. Should I try to control this man directly? No, forget it. That female ninja from Sunagakure outside is difficult to deal with. She's immortal, and I haven't learned any sealing techniques, so I have no way to counter her.

If it doesn't fully transform into a tailed beast, it won't even be able to leave this place.

But with the tailed beast form in Konoha... how could it possibly escape?

Thinking it over, Nanami lay down completely, ready to spend her "life" here.

Fine, I'll live and die with Hinata Yu and spend this life with him, since it's only a short hundred years anyway.

Just as it was thinking this, another figure appeared in the sealed space. It was naturally Hyuga Yu. However, after the Seven-Tails sensed the power in the other's eyes, it was instantly shocked and exclaimed, "How come your eye power is not damaged at all?"

"I have my own way of preserving it." Hinata Yu looked at it with a half-smile. "Do you have some other idea? Why are you so agitated?"

The wings on the back of the Seven-Tailed Fox flapped violently, and it stammered, "I'm... I'm considering it..."

Suddenly, a brilliant idea struck it: "I'm considering telling you my name!"

"So what's your name?"

Seeing Hinata Yu's seemingly ordinary question, Nanao paused, her voice tinged with complexity, "Don't you think it's strange that I have a name?"

"A name is one of the symbols of intelligent life. You can talk to humans, you can think, and you are more intelligent than some named spirit beasts. How could you not have a name?"

Hinata Hagu asked in return.

"How could it not have a name... How could it not have a name..."

Nanami looked at Hyuga Yu, repeating the same words to herself several times, before suddenly saying with relief, "You're different from those ninjas. Remember, my name is Chongming. Call me when you need my help."

Hinata Yu also smiled and said, "Hinata Yu, you already know. Please take care of me from now on."

Chongming: "Please guide me!"

……

His attention returned to the outside world, and Hyuga Yu looked at Rin, who was lying in the arms of a Sand Ninja, and Ranmaru, who was channeling life force into Rin, and walked over.

"How much vitality has been lost?"

"She's still alive. It seems that the Seven-Tails left her a lot of chakra, so she doesn't need much life force. I'm fine."

After transferring his life force, Ranmaru gently shook his head. "This kind of consumption won't harm my vitality. I just need to rest for a while."

The female ninja holding Rin raised her head and gave Ranmaru a complicated look.

The ability to resurrect... How many people in the ninja world yearn to master it, yet have no clue how?

She encountered both today, which could be considered another form of luck...

Hearing Ranmaru's explanation, Hinata Yu nodded thoughtfully, then turned his gaze to the other body that had turned into a corpse, feeling somewhat emotional.

From then on, the caged bird had no further connection with him.
