The Devil of Konoha: Starting as a Medical Ninja

After the Hashirama cells were injected, the Yang attribute energy was fused with the existing Yang attribute energy, increasing physical attributes and chakra.

The Yang attribute that should have been absorbed by the body was absorbed by those Byakugan, while the Wood Release attribute that should have been absorbed along with the Yang attribute was directly expelled from the body.

The end result was that his Byakugan, physical abilities, and chakra were all enhanced, but he couldn't see any Wood Release at all.

If Hongzhi were to use a secret technique, he might be able to have both Wood Release and Byakugan coexist. However, in a natural competition, how could something external and containing only a trace amount of Yang attribute and Wood Release possibly compete with the Byakugan, which has been deeply ingrained since childhood?

"That's interesting."

After arriving at the answer, Hiroji looked at the other blood samples. With the Hyuga clan's guess, the observation became much simpler.

Choji Akimichi's original secret technique was related to the Yang attribute, so the Yang attribute energy would be directly absorbed, but his physical attributes and chakra would be improved as a result.

As for Nara Shikamaru and Yamanaka Ino's secret techniques, they are of the Yin attribute. Although their physical attributes and chakra will be improved to a certain extent, the Yin and Yang attributes are inherently incompatible.

Even now, Hongzhi has not been able to integrate the two, so directly obtaining Wood Release is simply a pipe dream.

After resolving the issues of these four individuals, Hongzhi looked at the situation behind him. The Aburame clan was a special case, as they used their bodies to feed insects, and most of the energy they injected was absorbed by the insects, so naturally they would not obtain a bloodline limit.

As for the remaining people, their situations are similar. They either have Yin or Yang special abilities. Yin attributes are mutually exclusive, while Yang attributes can be directly fused. Both will affect the results of the second experiment, which means they will affect the acquisition of Wood Release.

After completing his research, Hongzhi prepared to go find Tsunade. There were quite a few clans in Konoha, although most of them were ones that Hongzhi had never even heard of.

Although the theory has been established, some things still need to be confirmed. First, it is necessary to determine whether the original abilities and techniques of those members with Yang attribute secret techniques and bloodline limits have been enhanced. If so, then the inference is correct.

If not, then it's an analysis error.

However, Hongzhi believed that the latter possibility was very small. After all, he had studied a lot of bloodlines and still had that ability.

In the Hokage's office, Tsunade was pondering the problem when she suddenly heard footsteps outside the door. She subconsciously looked up and saw Hiroji pushing open the office door.

"What's the situation?!"

Tsunade was overjoyed to see Hongzhi appear, after all, the clans of Konoha had been looking forward to this for a long time, but this was the result in the end.

It can be said that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment!

"Ninjas who possess Yin-Yang attribute bloodline limits or whose secret techniques involve Yin-Yang attribute transformations cannot acquire Wood Release through experiments, but their physical attributes and chakra should be improved, and even their Yang attribute secret techniques or bloodline limits will be enhanced to some extent!"

Without wasting any words, Hongzhi directly told Tsunade the final conclusion. As for verification, Tsunade would need to personally go to those Yang attribute families to verify it.

"Really???"

Tsunade was clearly horrified. It wasn't that she didn't trust Hiroji, but the matter was simply too terrifying. Although they couldn't obtain Wood Release, they could affect the power of Yang Release secret techniques.

If this is true, wouldn't it mean that the strength of some families will be enhanced in an unimaginable way? Moreover, compared to acquiring Wood Release, which they are not familiar with, such an enhancement would be a huge surprise for them.

"This requires the Hokage to verify it personally."

Hongzhi's lips twitched, but he still spoke calmly. Tsunade nodded upon hearing this, preparing to find an excuse to visit the ninjas who had just returned home not long ago.

While the two were talking, in the Hyuga clan's training room, Hyuga Hiashi's face had turned completely bewildered.

He wasn't particularly disappointed to learn that Hanabi hadn't obtained Wood Release, since the Hyuga clan already possessed their own bloodline limit, which would significantly enhance their physical abilities and chakra.

That was originally what Hiashi Hyuga thought, until he began to train Hanabi Hyuga specifically to help her master her surging power.

Then Hiashi Hyuga sensed that something was wrong. Hanabi's progress was too obvious. In addition to the improvement in her physical abilities, her Byakugan seemed to have become stronger as well!

The original maximum observation distance has increased, and the ability to penetrate and discern has also been improved...

Chapter 335 What a terrifying talent!

Although the abilities she demonstrated could be achieved with special training, that's where the problem lies.

The level of skill that requires years of training to achieve was reached in just a few days—it's simply impossible.

Then what he could think of was the experiment that Hyuga Hanabi had participated in before. Of course, Hyuga Hiashi did not directly prove this, after all, this matter was still very important, and it was not a coincidence that made him laugh heartily here.

If it weren't for the fact that strenuous exercise wasn't currently possible, Hiashi Hyuga would definitely have gone to find the Hokage to see if he could have the Hyuga clan ninjas conduct more experiments to compare whether the results were truly due to the experiments.

As for why it didn't work today, it's naturally because when helping Hanabi with her training, her growth was overlooked, and she was directly attacked with acupressure.

It's still quite embarrassing to admit. Although it all came down to Hanabi's power suddenly increasing, being defeated by his own daughter still made Hiashi Hyuga feel somewhat ashamed.

Especially in front of his two daughters, although Hinata lost the right to lead the Hyuga clan due to the rules, from a father's perspective, he would not show favoritism.

However, today, this serious father was actually hit by his daughter's acupressure technique. When this happened, the entire training ground was silent for a while, which was extremely awkward.

"Father, the Hokage has arrived."

While Hiashi Hyuga was still feeling down, Hinata Hyuga, dressed in casual clothes, walked in. She had already finished her training for the day and changed her clothes because she had made an appointment with those people, but she ran into Lady Tsunade as soon as she went out, so she had to come back first.

"Go to the reception room."

Hiashi Hyuga snapped out of his thoughts and spoke directly: "The Hokage has come here, surely for the sake of Hanabi."

He knew the general situation; he must have seen the experiment fail and wanted to check on things.

In the past, Hiashi Hyuga wouldn't have been so excited, but after this incident, he couldn't help but be excited. What if this experiment, besides enhancing the Hyuga clan's physique and chakra, could also play a role in the development of the Byakugan?

The rise of the Hyuga clan is about to begin. Currently, the Hyuga clan members generally develop their Byakugan to its limit around the age of twenty. If this is brought forward, it means that the younger generation of the Hyuga clan will have a significantly higher chance of surviving missions.

Inside the Hyuga clan's reception room, Tsunade looked at Hyuga Hiashi, who was being helped in by Hyuga Hinata, with astonishment in her eyes. The Hyuga clan is currently the largest clan in Konoha and also the clan with the most bloodline limits.

There shouldn't be anyone who could injure the clan leader, Hiashi Hyuga, here!

What's going on here?

Tsunade asked calmly. Her seniority and status were higher than Hiashi Hyuga's, so asking directly would naturally not cause any problems.

Even the most disciplined Hyuga clan couldn't find anything wrong with it.

"It's shameful to talk about this..."

Hiashi Hyuga could only awkwardly explain that although the Hyuga clan could keep this a secret and make money in secret, it would definitely cause misunderstandings when it was exposed in the end, so it was better to just say it directly.

At worst, the Hyuga clan will have to pay more for the experiments in the future. This experiment is extremely important to the Hyuga clan. After making a guess, the elders began to think about how to recruit Hiroji to the Hyuga clan.

Tsunade, who was only halfway through hearing the answer, was already overwhelmed with emotion. She had come to verify something, but she hadn't expected to get the answer before she even opened her mouth.

Although there were errors in the process, the final result was good, at least it was definitely effective for the Hyuga clan.

In that case, even if other families withdraw from the experiment, the Hyuga clan will definitely be staunch supporters of the experiment, and anyone who suggests stopping the experiment is digging up the Hyuga clan's ancestral graves.

"I never expected it to actually be like this!"

After Hiashi Hyuga finished speaking, before he could even catch his breath, he heard Tsunade muttering to herself, which made him realize that something was wrong.

Shouldn't there be some surprise and doubt? What's going on here?

"I came here to verify Hongzhi's guess, but after hearing what you just said, there is no need to verify it anymore."

Tsunade smiled and spoke, while Hiashi Hyuga silently swallowed. Things that the Hyuga clan needed to practice with to deduce, that guy could tell just by observing Hanabi's blood.

Furthermore, they even invited the Hokage to verify it. If he were to investigate further, wouldn't the Hyuga clan's very secrets be exposed?

"As expected of a genius medical ninja."

After a long silence, Hiashi Hyuga finally uttered these words. The impact of this event was far more terrifying than Hanabi Hyuga's growth.

After all, it was all created by that guy, a medical ninja who could see these changes simply by looking at blood...

"Alright, now that you've verified it here, I need to go to other places to verify it as well. After all, the Hyuga clan isn't the only one with Yang attribute as its core."

Having confirmed the information, Tsunade prepared to leave. The Akimichi clan's secret technique was based on the Yang attribute, and she definitely needed to verify this.

As for the others, most of them are of the Yin attribute.

"Have a good day, Hokage."

Hiashi Hyuga glanced at Hinata Hyuga, who had overheard the entire conversation, and then left with Tsunade.

"What a terrifying talent!"

Looking at the now empty reception room, Hiashi Hyuga couldn't help but mutter to himself, "When that guy used Wood Release, it was an earthquake for Konoha, and now it's another earthquake."

Putting aside everything else, the Hyuga clan is definitely the beneficiary of this experiment, and as for whether other clans will benefit in the future, no one can say for sure.

The good news is that he doesn't have any deep ties with any family; the bad news is that he doesn't have any ties with the Hyuga family either.

However, the elders of the Hyuga clan seemed to have some special ideas, but no one knew what they were planning. Hyuga Hiashi could only be sure that they wouldn't do something as stupid as kidnapping, but he wasn't particularly clear on how they wanted to win them over.

As dusk fell, Tsunade emerged from the Akimichi family with an unusually happy expression. Akimichi Choji's secret technique had also been enhanced, which was enough to prove that Hiroji was right.

This matter could not be kept secret any longer; he had already imagined the frustration of those families whose core element was not Yang.

But there's nothing that can be done, since the most primitive cells are yang in nature, and no one can change that. It's just unknown whether those families will allow Hongzhi to conduct other experiments.

These are all families that have survived since the Warring States period; which one doesn't have some savings?

Chapter 336 Tai Chi Energy Core

After things settled down in Konoha, Hiroji returned directly to Ryuchi Cave.

After several days of recovery, the natural energy of Ryūji Cave has been fully restored. Although it may not be able to withstand the condensation of the energy core, it can still maintain a steady flow of energy.

Hongzhi sat quietly in the wooden house, adjusting his breathing. Only after confirming that his physical condition had reached its peak did he begin to act.

The transfer of the Yang-attribute energy core in the middle dantian was initially without any problems, and it entered the upper dantian almost without any obstruction.

Then Hongzhi felt a sense of unease. The Yin-attribute energy core in his upper dantian began to slowly erode the Yang-attribute energy core that suddenly wanted to seize his territory.

Because the two rotate in different directions, the clash will not immediately determine the winner. The rotation speed of both is gradually decreasing. However, the energy core of the Yang attribute is stained with a trace of black because it is not fighting in the local area.

Overall, it's still within acceptable limits. This was something Hongzhi had anticipated. The first step of the plan has only just begun. Next, Hongzhi will directly transfer the attribute-less energy core from the lower dantian to the middle dantian.

This process took half an hour. At this moment, the Yang attribute energy core in the upper dantian was covered with black threads, clearly indicating that it had gradually lost the battle.

However, as the energy core in the middle dantian, which was originally without any attribute, transforms into a yang attribute energy core, a continuous stream of yang attribute energy also flows directly into the upper dantian.

What followed was a tug-of-war, with the natural energy of Longdi Cave continuously flowing into the body, and then being transformed into yang attribute energy by the yang attribute energy core of the middle dantian and transmitted to the upper dantian.

The Yin-attribute energy core in the upper dantian can only be used by the natural energy that flows naturally in the meridians.

As time goes by, the gap between the two becomes more and more obvious. Although the upper dantian is the source of yin energy, with the invasion of yang energy, it has changed to a state of being half black and half white.

If this continues, the upper dantian will also become the core of the yang attribute, and even the inscribed techniques will be transformed as a result, which is not what Hongzhi wants to see.

When the two energy cores reached equilibrium, Hongzhi directly cut off all natural energy supply to the upper dantian, leaving the two natural energy cores completely without any further energy support.

Only in this way can balance be maintained. By manipulating the two energy cores to slowly approach each other, Hongzhi felt an unimaginable resistance, but having already come this far, he certainly wouldn't give up.

Hongzhi continued to push the two closer together, and both their rotation speed and color were gradually fading, which was not good news.
