Naruto: The Uchiha's Scientific Madman

Chapter 11 Root Attack

The rising sun was slightly dazzling.

Hongdou subconsciously closed her eyes for a moment before recovering.

They gradually adapted to the external environment.

I spent nearly half a month in the underground research institute.

When I came out again, it was as if I had entered a completely different world.

She tidied her hair and tied it back.

A pair of dark eyes swept around, and many previously unnoticed anomalies became clearly visible.

Part of it was an assignment left by the teacher, who placed several small snakes near the base to keep an eye on the surroundings.

The ninjas hiding in the shadows clearly had ill intentions.

She glanced at them discreetly and roughly assessed their strength—a combination of one Jonin and three Chunin. If she made a move now, there would likely be some who escaped.

After learning that the teacher had made some preparations.

To avoid alerting the enemy, she pretended to know nothing and left.

The Root ninjas hidden in the shadows did not suspect anything. They did not expect that Anko's strength could change so drastically in such a short time, and that she would discover them all.

After Hongdou left, the group quietly appeared, exchanged glances, and stealthily entered the laboratory.

"Mori Gen, go and deal with that Uchiha clansman."

"The rest of you, come with me to find 'A'!"

The leader of the Root Jonin gave the order.

Their mission was to seize the Wood Release experimental subjects and related data from Orochimaru.

While we're at it, we'll also take care of a problem with the Uchiha clan.

Lord Danzo did not want to see the Uchiha clan and Orochimaru become too closely connected.

To avoid unnecessary trouble when dealing with the Uchiha clan in the future.

The lowest level of the laboratory.

Inside a lounge.

Qing was holding an injection, examining it repeatedly.

Inside is the serum of the First Hokage.

Orochimaru must have noticed his underhanded tactics when he intercepted a sample during the early stages of the first cell transplantation experiment, but he did not intervene.

The tremendous stimulus caused by the qualitative change in Hongdou's strength had a great impact on him.

I couldn't resist bringing forward my plans.

"We must put improving our strength on the agenda as soon as possible."

"Shortly after the Nine-Tails incident, Orochimaru defected shortly after the Third Hokage took office."

"Given my current value, Orochimaru will definitely take me along..."

"But there's no guarantee we'll survive the pursuit from Konoha. We can't put all our hopes on Orochimaru."

Many thoughts flashed through Qing's mind.

Originally, the plan was to develop a forbidden technique to improve physical talent based on the perfect curse seal after the curse seal was researched, so that the current body would have the talent to absorb natural energy.

But there's not enough time now.

Orochimaru hasn't returned for a long time; he's most likely tied up with things outside.

This is his best opportunity to conduct independent research.

But—it could also be a trap set by Orochimaru, causing him to reveal his trump card.

The first-generation serum removes most of the cells that are harmful to the body, leaving only a portion of blood components that specifically enhance and stimulate the body's immune function. This allows it to maximize the integration of the power of the first-generation cells and minimize side effects on the body.

After a brief preparation, Qing barricaded the door shut and then injected the serum directly into her arm, allowing it to flow into her body through the syringe.

A burning sensation came from within my body.

The expected side effects did not occur.

Instead, a burning sensation surged through my body, constantly scorching me as if I were being roasted by fire.

Soon after, the chakra in his dantian began to surge violently, triggering a series of chain reactions.

The cells in the body involuntarily began to refine chakra.

One drop, two drops...

The liquid formed from chakra condenses in the dantian area and gradually increases in volume.

At the same time, a cool sensation came from my eyes.

His temples bulged slightly, and as chakra surged down, it was as if something was about to burst forth from the ground.

"call……"

"Not bad. The first-generation cells are still too outstanding. Just a little bit of serum can produce such a big effect. If it is fully transplanted... I don't know if the body can withstand it."

"His chakra has doubled, but there are no visible changes in his physical condition yet... This is probably because the First Hokage's cells have stimulated the cells in his body, producing a great boost."

"Changes in cells can indeed promote a qualitative change in chakra."

A smile appeared on Qing's lips.

In just one month, he had transformed from a genin whose chakra level barely met the requirements into an elite genin.

It's almost close to the amount of chakra that Red Bean had before the experiment.

Taking drugs is indeed a shortcut.

Unfortunately, it's a one-time treatment and can't be injected repeatedly.

Qing put down the injection.

The ears twitched slightly.

They heard a noise coming from outside the door.

He was the only one left in the lab who could move freely; the rest were either materials imprisoned in the lab's dungeon or deformed and crippled individuals resulting from failed experiments...

It's impossible for such normal footsteps to be heard.

Who?

Ao instantly stood up, took out a silver metal scalpel from his ninja tool bag with his right hand, held it in his palm, and quietly moved to the wall behind the door.

I pressed my ear against the wall, held my breath, and watched the movements outside the door.

creak.

The door moved slightly.

Someone tried to push the door, but was stopped by the bolt.

The noise is very subtle, and it's hard to notice if you're not paying attention.

Qing's expression was solemn, his calm gaze fixed on the movement of the door bolt.

A small knife slipped in from outside the door.

The bolt was gently pried open.

thump...

The bolt fell to the ground.

The door opened.

A foot wrapped in white bandages reached in.

In that instant.

Qing moved.

The silver scalpel in his hand flew out instantly, heading straight for the foot that had been inserted.

Clang!

A metallic clanging sound rang out.

The speeding scalpel was blocked by a jet-black kunai and knocked to the ground.

Then a face covered with a rabbit mask appeared at the edge of the door.

"Oh... you're quite alert. A mere genin managed to catch my movements..."

The other party let out a contemptuous sneer.

He leaned in and closed the door behind him.

The kunai spun incessantly on his fingertips, and the eyes beneath the mask were filled with mockery, like a cat playing with a mouse.

In his eyes.

Uchiha Ao is already dead.

"The roots?"

Qing uttered two words, staring intently at the other person's movements, his hands, hidden behind his back, quietly forming several hand seals.

"You still know us? You brat, you know quite a bit... No wonder you've gained Orochimaru's favor."

"Unfortunately, you offended someone you shouldn't have."

"I can't believe it," a Chunin from Root said in surprise.

"Give up struggling, and I can give you a quick death."

He noticed the other person's subtle movements and gave them no chance to retaliate.

Suddenly, Qing stepped forward and instinctively reached out his hand, a pale blue chakra blade gathering in his hand, but the opponent easily dodged it.

The gap in strength.

It's despair-inducing.

He was just a genin, with a lot of experimental experience from his past life in his mind, but virtually no experience in combat.

No matter how much knowledge you have in your mind, or how careful you are.

There was nothing they could do against this experienced ANBU chūnin.

The newly increased strength was not immediately converted into power.

puff!

The kunai pierced his body.

At the last moment, Qing used all her strength to turn her body to the side, avoiding a fatal blow to the heart.

The kunai got stuck in his arm.

He endured the excruciating pain, suddenly reached out his hands, and hugged the other person tightly.

He was immediately jolted awake!
