Konoha: This Uchiha is extremely sneaky

Chapter 288 Experiment

Time passed slowly, and several more months went by.

Fugaku's second child has been born.

Unsurprisingly, he was named Uchiha Sasuke.

Toshiro would never believe that Fugaku named his child without trying to curry favor with the Third Hokage.

However, things often don't go as planned.

Inside a relatively secluded room in Konoha Prison.

"what!"

"Mashi! Mashi! Don't leave me, I will live with you forever!"

After a loud shout, there was a muttering to himself.

On a small bed, just big enough for one adult to lie down, lay a middle-aged man with his upper body naked.

At this moment, his hands and feet were tightly bound by straps on the hospital bed, and his entire body, especially his head, was connected with wires of various sizes.

These new lines are then connected to another monitor.

This is not finished.

Toshiro's figure was standing on his head, his hands on the other's head, carefully sensing something. The other's head was not directly exposed to the air, but was covered by a white cloth covered with twisted and incomprehensible black runes.

"The drug used in this trial wasn't very effective!"

"Also, while using chakra to stimulate the brain to control the amplitude of emotional fluctuations is effective, the side effects are quite significant!"

The main brain regions responsible for controlling emotions include the cerebral cortex, amygdala, hippocampus, and hypothalamus.

The cerebral cortex, especially the prefrontal and temporal lobes, is responsible for processing emotional information. The prefrontal cortex can also regulate emotional responses and perform self-regulation of emotions.

There's also the amygdala, located deep in the brain, which is the center of our emotional responses, especially fear and anger. It's an ancient brain structure that plays a crucial role in our emotional responses.

Then there's the hippocampus, an important part of the brain primarily responsible for memory storage. Together with the amygdala, it connects emotions and memories.

Then comes the hypothalamus, which controls the body's autonomic nervous system. It can adjust the body's physiological responses to adapt to changes in emotions, such as increased heart rate and sweating.

All of the above components work together in the process of emotion generation and regulation. Emotion regulation is a complex process involving the interaction of multiple parts of the brain and neural pathways.

Meanwhile, Toshiro has been transforming into a neuroscience expert, attempting to amplify the emotional fluctuations of his test subjects through chakra, drugs, illusions, and other means.

He pays particular attention to certain special substances secreted by the brain when a person is sad.

As for the subjects of the experiment, they were naturally the prisoners in Konoha Prison, especially the death row inmates, who were Toshiro's main targets.

The experimental method is also very simple.

First, use the Sharingan to interrogate the other person to find out when they were happiest and most painful. Then, use a sealing technique to seal the other person's memories.

They manipulate the other person using illusions, making them repeatedly experience things that make them happy or sad, while also using drugs and chakra to stimulate their brains.

The observation method is also very simple: on the one hand, observe the other person's brain waves, and on the other hand, count the amount of various secretions secreted by the other person's brain.

This is used to determine the effects of chakra stimulation or medication.

Of course, that's not enough. It's best to observe whether the other person's mental state changes in any particular way after experiencing these things.

These are all things that Toshiro started trying after he took office as the warden of Konoha Prison, but the results are not very ideal.

Either the stimulation from drugs or chakra was ineffective, with no noticeable effect, or the stimulation was excessive, causing irreversible side effects for the test subjects.

For example, they might suffer from mental illness and become completely insane. Or their emotions might fluctuate wildly, causing them to burst into tears or laugh uncontrollably over trivial matters.

Then there's endocrine imbalance and such.

This gave Toshiro a huge headache.

"call……"

With a great sigh of relief, Toshiro stepped out of his laboratory and said to Uchiha Chie, who was guarding the gate, "Chie, this man is in your hands. Before he is executed, make sure he spends his last few days in peace."

"yes!"

Looking at the situation inside the laboratory, Uchiha Chie was already used to it and calmly sent Toshiro's experimental materials to the corresponding cell.

At first, she was a little surprised and even went to report to Fugaku Uchiha about it.

However, after talking with Toshiro in detail, the other party saw that he had not caused any deaths, so they did not interfere further.

After all, they were just death row inmates, and Toshiro's pretext was to research illusion magic.

"Warden, this is the prisoner transfer information sent by the secret service. It needs your signature."

After sending the unfortunate prisoner to his cell, Uchiha Chie then found Toshiro, who was resting with his eyes closed in his office.

He handed him a document.

"Oh! A retrial of the prisoner?"

After casually flipping through the document, Toshiro didn't sign it immediately. Instead, he looked at the person standing in front of the office.

"Chie, how many times this month has the Anbu taken prisoners from our custody for retrial?"

"The sixth time!"

"Is this the sixth time?"

Touching his chin, Toshiro already knew pretty much what would happen to these prisoners, but to confirm his guess, he still asked:

"What crimes did these prisoners, who were interrogated by the secret service, commit? And did they eventually return to our prison?"

When faced with Toshiro's question, Chie Uchiha did not hesitate at all, fully demonstrating her understanding of prisons and prisoners.

"Most of them were prisoners with heavy sentences, usually for serious crimes such as murder and robbery. After being interrogated by the secret police, none of them went back to prison."

"Some of the prisoners we interrogated were spies held in jail. Because of their sensitive identities, we didn't ask them many questions."

"How many people did they interrogate in total, in six separate instances?"

Given this, Toshiro was almost certain that these people had been used as experimental subjects by Orochimaru and were thus consumed.

"There are 80 people in total! And all of them are prisoners with chakra."

Seemingly sensing something amiss, Uchiha Chie added a sentence after reporting the data.

Then just wait quietly for what follows.
