"Don't pretend, Miyano-san. I've seen it a long time ago. You, like me, and Mr. Fukuhara, are people who are eager for change. When you came into contact with gene editing technology, I felt a kind of desire in your eyes. That kind of desire is too familiar to me. You and I both desire a strong bloodline."
"Since we all have the same ambition, why don't you join us in the research, Miyano-san? Just imagine, if gene editing technology can be popularized, there will no longer be a bloodline monopoly in this world. By then, whether it's the Uchiha clan's Sharingan or the Senju clan's Wood Release, anyone who wants it can have it!"
Chapter 21 Your former student, Orochimaru
As one of the best spies in the ninja world, Kabuto Yakushi is very good at deceiving people. If it were an ordinary person, he might have fooled them. But Uchiha Izumi, as a time traveler who knows the original plot, knows Kabuto Yakushi inside and out, so he will not be fooled easily. Even though Kabuto Yakushi said a lot of nonsense, Uchiha Izumi's eyes remained calm. After Kabuto Yakushi finished talking on the phone, Uchiha Izumi said softly:
"I'm sorry, Kabuto-san. Although what you said makes sense, I still want to focus on my studies. If you really need it, go find other seniors. I think some of them will agree with you and the teacher's ideas."
Uchiha Izumi was about to leave when she said that, but was grabbed by Yakushi Kabuto. When Uchiha Izumi turned around, she saw a sharp kunai already placed on her neck.
"Miyano-san, have you forgotten that I'm a ninja? As a ninja, I can do whatever it takes to achieve my goal!"
Uchiha Izumi's strength is above that of Kabuto Yakushi, so naturally, she couldn't hide Kabuto Yakushi's moves. But Uchiha Izumi also knew that if he agreed to Kabuto Yakushi's request too easily, it would make Kabuto Yakushi suspicious. After all, his current personality is a timid and good student, and it is impossible for him to rashly participate in too dangerous research. So Uchiha Izumi used a trick of playing hard to get, retreating to advance, in order to let Kabuto Yakushi force him with the power of a ninja, so that his subsequent joining would become more logical.
So looking at the kunai on his neck, Uchiha Izumi immediately used the acting skills he had honed over the past two years. His pupils shrank, his body trembled, and he looked like a frightened quail, and he said tremblingly:
"Kabuto-san, what are you going to do?"
"It's simple, just agree to cooperate with me." Pharmacist Kabuto said coldly.
"Why, why me? No, it's not because of those brothers..."
"Humph, you mean those rubbish! Miyano-san, are you kidding me?" Yakushi Kabuto sneered:
"Although we are all Fukuhara-sensei's disciples, it took those so-called seniors at least four years just to master the basic gene editing technology. In comparison, you and I only took more than half a year to do it. How can we do research well with a bunch of insects like this?"
"And Miyano-san, to tell you the truth, I noticed you from the first day. When we first entered school, I used my perception ability as a medical ninja to find out that you lied about your age! We all entered school at the age of 15 or , but you passed the entrance exam when you were less than ."
"Your talent in scientific research is definitely not inferior to mine, and may even be stronger than mine. Only by cooperating with a genius like you can Mr. Fukuhara and I make a breakthrough in our research on gene editing. This is why I came to you alone, Miyano-san. You are the only genius I recognize in this school!"
As he spoke, Yakushi Kabuto's kunai got closer and closer to Uchiha Izumi's neck. Just as it was about to touch his skin, Uchiha Izumi hurriedly said:
"You, you put this down first, I, I agree!"
Hearing the answer that satisfied him, Kabuto Yakushi put down his kunai. Looking at Uchiha Izumi, whose eyes were already filled with tears, Kabuto Yakushi shook his head, then stroked Uchiha Izumi's hair and said:
"Okay, Miyano-san, you don't have to be afraid. As long as you cooperate with me wholeheartedly, I won't hurt you. After all, geniuses like you are the most precious treasure in this world. I look forward to new breakthroughs in gene editing technology under our cooperation, breaking the world's corrupt bloodline monopoly."
At the end, Kabuto Yakushi told Uchiha Izumi that he was going to go to Fukuhara Hiroyo's house tonight to confront him. Seeing Kabuto Yakushi's confident look, Uchiha Izumi felt puzzled. This guy and Fukuhara Hiroyo's relationship was not close, so where did he get the confidence to convince Fukuhara Hiroyo.
But no matter what, what Kabuto Yakushi did was in the interests of Uchiha Izumi. So after hesitating for a moment, Uchiha Izumi reluctantly agreed to act with Kabuto Yakushi at night.
At night, after leaving the laboratory, Uchiha Izumi found Fukuhara Hiroyo's residence under the guidance of Kabuto Yakushi. As a professor at Hokyo University, Fukuhara Hiroyo should not be short of money. But the place where Fukuhara Hiroyo lived was very shabby, just an old one-family house. And judging from the marks on the walls around the house, this one-family house should not have been maintained for a long time.
The two rang the doorbell, and soon Fukuhara Hiroyo came out of his house. Looking at the two talented students in the laboratory in front of him, Fukuhara Hiroyo asked in confusion:
"Kabuto Yakushi, and Miyano Shiho? What do you want from me?"
Hearing Fukuhara Hiroyo's question, Uchiha Izumi shrank his neck as per his character setting, and looked at Kabuto Yakushi with fear. However, Kabuto Yakushi smiled and said:
"Mr. Fukuhara, we came to you because we want to participate in the experiment you are leading. It is the human gene editing experiment that you are secretly conducting in the basement of your home!"
Hearing the answer from Kabuto Yakushi, Fukuhara Hiroyo was obviously surprised. He didn't expect that the secret he had hidden could be discovered so easily. But after being surprised, Fukuhara Hiroyo quickly regained his composure.
Fukuhara Hiroyo knew that if Kabuto Yakushi wanted to cause trouble for him, as a Konoha ninja, he only needed to report his situation to Konoha, and Konoha would surely send ninjas to arrest him. But Kabuto Yakushi discovered his secret, but only brought a classmate to find him. This shows that Kabuto Yakushi is not a pure Konoha ninja, and this guy also has his own ambitions.
Fukuhara Hiroyo looked at Uchiha Izumi again, and noticed the evasive expression on Uchiha Izumi's face. He realized that Uchiha Izumi must have been coerced by Yakushi Kabuto to act with him. Uchiha Izumi's performance further strengthened Fukuhara Hiroyo's idea. Yakushi Kabuto had his own selfish motives, so he would look for a genius like Uchiha Izumi to cooperate in order to master more advanced gene editing technology.
Looking at the ambitious Yakushi Kabuto, Fukuhara Hiroyo couldn't help but sigh:
"What an amazing young man! Kabuto Yakushi, you remind me of another student I once taught. He was also a Konoha ninja like you, and he also had the same burning desire in his eyes."
Hearing Fukuhara Hiroyo's sigh, Yakushi Kabuto held up his glasses and smiled:
"I know who that person is. In fact, the reason why I enrolled in Hokkei University and spent two years as your student was because of his guidance. He told me that if a ninja without bloodline wants to succeed, he can only rely on the knowledge taught by higher education. He also told me that Mr. Fukuhara is the person he admires most in his life. Because it was you who made him understand the power of science, and it was you who helped him open the door to scientific research."
Having said this, Yakushi Kabuto bowed respectfully to Fukuhara Hiroyo and said:
"Mr. Fukuhara, your former student, Lord Orochimaru, asked me to send his regards to you!"
Chapter 22: End of Bloodline Limit
Uchiha Izumi knew that Kabuto Yakushi was Orochimaru's man, but she didn't expect that Hiroyo Fukuhara was actually Orochimaru's teacher. However, this can also explain why Kabuto Yakushi took the initiative to become Hiroyo Fukuhara's student. This is not only because of gene editing technology, but also because of the relationship between Hiroyo Fukuhara and Orochimaru.
"Since you are Orochimaru's subordinate, please come in."
Upon hearing that Kabuto Yakushi was Orochimaru's man, Hiroyo Fukuhara's tone became noticeably more relaxed.
Hearing this, Kabuto Yakushi walked into Fukuhara Hiroyo's house. Seeing this, Uchiha Izumi hesitated for a moment and followed him in. Fukuhara Hiroyo looked at the timid Uchiha Izumi and didn't say much, but just asked the two to follow him into the room.
Uchiha Izumi saw Fukuhara Hiroyo bringing two people to the storage room, and then opened the floor of the storage room, and saw a basement entrance appeared here. The three walked into the dark basement. Yakushi Kabuto might be worried that Uchiha Izumi was scared, so he held Uchiha Izumi's hand. Of course, he might also be worried that Uchiha Izumi would run away because of fear.
Not long after the three of them walked, the darkness gradually dissipated, and what appeared in front of Uchiha Izumi was an underground laboratory with a large number of advanced equipment. The price of these equipments is not cheap, and the electricity bill alone is a large sum of money. As a professor at Hokage University, Fukuhara Hiroyo should have thrown all his belongings into it, otherwise he would not have lived in such a shabby single-family house.
Standing under the light in the basement, the elderly Fukuhara Hiroyo finally showed the look of a scientist. He first glanced at Kabuto Yakushi, then said to Uchiha Izumi:
"Miyano, do you know what I am secretly researching?"
Uchiha Izumi nodded, and Kabuto Yakushi beside him said:
"You want to use gene editing technology to change human genetic information, so that the bloodline that originally belonged to only a small number of people can be popularized, breaking the monopoly of the big clans in the ninja world on bloodline limits!"
As he spoke, Yakushi Kabuto's eyes showed enthusiasm, and his tone became sonorous:
"Mr. Fukuhara, your research is destroying this corrupt ninja world and is enough to create a great era! Lord Orochimaru sent me to your side precisely because he realized your greatness. Let us work together to create a new era in the ninja world!"
Seeing the enthusiastic look of Kabuto Yakushi, Uchiha Izumi remained silent. But Fukuhara Hiroyo sighed:
"As expected of Orochimaru's subordinate, you look exactly like Orochimaru when he was young. It's a pity that I'm not as radical as you think, and I've never thought of popularizing bloodline limits."
After hearing Fukuhara Hiroyo's answer, the originally enthusiastic Yakushi Kabuto was stunned. Uchiha Izumi also looked at Fukuhara Hiroyo in surprise, not understanding what he was up to.
"Are you surprised? That's right. After all, you and Miyano are both young people. Young people are always very radical and always want to make big news. But I'm different. I'm old, so I look at things from a more conservative perspective than you."
As he spoke, Fukuhara Hiroyo walked up to Yakushi Kabuto and said:
"Kabuto-kun, let me ask you a question. You want to break the monopoly of bloodline limits and spread the power that originally belonged to a few people to everyone. But do you know what it will mean to the world if such a thing happens?"
"Everyone has the possibility to control their own destiny." Yakushi Kabuto said firmly.
"Wrong, this world will collapse because it cannot withstand overly powerful humans!" Fukuhara Hiroyo said:
"A jonin-level expert is enough to split mountains and rocks, and a kage-level expert can even destroy a mountain! There are no more than a hundred kage-level experts in the ninja world today, and the damage caused by these experts is enough to change the geographical environment of the ninja world. What do you think it would mean to the world if everyone in the ninja world had the power of a jonin-level? If a war breaks out in such a world, and thousands of kage-level experts fight each other, what do you think will happen to our world?"
Hearing this, Yakushi Kabuto was speechless for a moment. Fukuhara Hiroyo looked at Uchiha Izumi again, and Uchiha Izumi whispered:
"It's going to be the end of the world, right?"
Fukuhara Hiroyo nodded and said:
"That's right. Powerful forces must be restricted, and the more powerful the force, the more so. Once bloodline limits become popular, this power will inevitably get out of control. Therefore, breaking the bloodline monopoly and popularizing bloodline limits does not mean a better world. On the contrary, it will bring doomsday to this world!"
Hearing this, Kabuto Yakushi gradually regained his composure. Looking at Fukuhara Hiroyo, Kabuto Yakushi asked:
"So, Mr. Fukuhara, what are you secretly researching?"
"I am indeed researching human genetic modification, but the purpose of my genetic modification has never been to popularize bloodline limits, but to end bloodline limits!"
The end of the bloodline limit?
As he spoke, Fukuhara Hiroyo led the two to the computer screen and explained to them while flipping through the information:
"The purpose of our development of gene editing technology is to eradicate diseases caused by human gene defects. From a genetic point of view, bloodline limit is also a gene defect disease. As long as we can find the genetic code that causes this gene defect, we can eradicate this gene defect. Then..."
"At that time, bloodline limits will disappear from this world, and even the power of chakra will disappear." Kabuto Yakushi followed Fukuhara Hiroyo's words.
"With the disappearance of chakra, the profession of ninja will also disappear in history. This world will no longer be just the ninja world, and the fate of this world will return to the hands of ordinary people." Fukuhara Hiroyo said sadly:
"A world without chakra, a world where fate is no longer controlled by a small number of people, a world where ordinary people can also create miracles. In such a world, there will be no more bloody ninja wars, nor will there be a corrupt ninja village system. Peace will come, and most people will not be oppressed by ninjas. This ordinary and beautiful world is the new era I yearn for!"
As he spoke, Fukuhara Hiroyo's eyes seemed to be full of stars. When Kabuto Yakushi heard what Fukuhara Hiroyo said, he fell silent. It was obvious that Fukuhara Hiroyo's ideal was far from his own imagination, which gave Kabuto Yakushi a huge shock. Only Uchiha Izumi said in a cold tone after listening to Fukuhara Hiroyo's imagination:
"it's useless."
"Mr. Fukuhara, your fantasy will not come true."
Fukuhara Hiroyo was startled when he heard this, and Yakushi Kabuto looked at Uchiha Izumi in surprise, and then he heard Uchiha Izumi say in a cold tone:
"Human desires are like mountains, and the fate of the world is like a stone. We have only heard of stones sliding down the slope, but have we ever heard of stones climbing to the top of the mountain?"
"Now that we know the power of chakra and bloodline limits, how can we give up this power so easily given human desire and thirst? Even if your research succeeds, Mr. Fukuhara, and ends the bloodline limits in a short period of time, as long as the thirst for power still exists in people's hearts, the bloodline limits will inevitably return to the stage of history."
"So bloodline limits will definitely be popularized. Regardless of whether your research is successful or not, Mr. Fukuhara, you cannot defy this fate. This is the trend of historical development and the inevitable choice of the times!"
Chapter 23 Read more, read well, and read good books
Uchiha Izumi's tone was cold, like the judgment of the goddess of fate, which dealt a heavy blow to Fukuhara Hiroyo.
This old man in his sixties actually understood human nature better than Uchiha Izumi. It was just that he had been immersed in fantasy and ignored the human desire for power. Now, his fantasy was completely broken by Uchiha Izumi, so that he was completely stunned. It was as if his life had lost its goal and direction, and he just sat there stiffly.
Next to Uchiha Izumi, Kabuto Yakushi looked at her like a monster. He originally thought that this girl named Miyano Shiho was a talented scientist, but he didn't expect that this girl also had such knowledge in sociology. Especially the momentum she showed when she spoke just now, to Kabuto Yakushi, it felt like Orochimaru.
No, even stronger than Lord Orochimaru!
"Miyano, how did you know all this?" asked Hiroyo Fukuhara after he came to his senses.
At the same time, Yakushi Kabuto looked at Uchiha Izumi warily. At this moment, he had begun to doubt Uchiha Izumi's identity.
Facing the surprised looks of the two, Uchiha Izumi said as a matter of course:
"Is there anything surprising about this? After all, I am a college graduate, so it is normal for me to have a certain amount of knowledge in sociology! Don't tell me that you haven't read any relevant books before?"
Damn, what you said makes a lot of sense!
College students, intellectuals, who don’t like to rush to the tower?
Even Einstein wrote two books on sociology, let alone others?
Intellectuals in real life are like this, and intellectuals in the ninja world also have similar bad habits. Several professors from different disciplines like to sit together and talk about this and that, and basically talk about everything except academics. So it is not surprising that Uchiha Izumi, a graduate student, shows such insight, and it is strange that he does not have such insight.
Only ninjas from Konoha, such as Kabuto Yakushi and Hiroyo Fukuhara, would be surprised. If it were professors from other departments, they might have already started a debate with Uchiha Izumi about the nature of human nature.
"So, my path is wrong?"
Fukuhara Hiroyo said in distress:
"But if the power of bloodline limit is not restricted, if everyone in the future ninja world has the strength of Kage, then once a war breaks out in such a world, can our planet really withstand it?"
As Fukuhara Hiroyo spoke, he looked at Uchiha Izumi. The same thing happened to Kabuto Yakushi beside him. They both wanted to see if this taciturn girl would say anything surprising. So they heard Uchiha Izumi say:
"There is more than one habitable planet in this world. The world is big, and the universe is even bigger. Why do we humans have to squeeze into this planet? After the bloodline limit is popularized, we humans can use the power of various bloodline limits to transform other planets into habitable planets, and then carry out interstellar migration!"
"As long as we make good use of Wood Release and space-time ninjutsu, interstellar migration will not be a technical problem for the ninja world. By then, human footprints will be all over the universe, and even if a war destroys one or two planets, it won't be a big deal."
Hearing this, Kabuto Yakushi and Hiroyo Fukuhara were once again in shock. When most people in the ninja world were confined to their own planet, Uchiha Izumi had already set his sights on the universe and the starry sky. In contrast to this situation, Kabuto Yakushi and Hiroyo Fukuhara suddenly felt that the ideas they had once upheld were so narrow-minded and decadent.
"It turns out that it can be done this way, it can be done this way..." Hiroyo Fukuhara murmured to himself.
This old man, who was born in the Senju clan and had experienced many hardships, was opened up to a new world by Uchiha Izumi in his twilight years. At this moment, he felt fortunate because he had seen the future of mankind, a world that was far more vast and magnificent than the ninja world. But at the same time, he felt sad. Because he was already very old at this moment, he was destined not to see the moment when mankind crushed the stars.
"Miyano, it would be great if you were born fifty years earlier!"
Fukuhara Hiroyo sighed, and Yakushi Kabuto asked Uchiha Izumi curiously:
"Miyano-san, did you also read your opinion in a sociology book?"
This question was not a test, but a sincere question from Yaoshi Dou.
The pattern that Uchiha Izumi just showed has far exceeded what Kabuto Yakushi once knew. Even if Uchiha Izumi reveals his true identity now, Kabuto Yakushi will not react at all, because compared with the road to opening up the stars, it is not worth mentioning at all.
As a spy ninja from the bottom of society, Kabuto Yakushi had long been fed up with the filth of the ninja world. Now he was like a rat in the gutter, seeing the vast starry sky for the first time. In front of that vastness, the disputes in the ninja world were like the flies and dogs in the sewer, meaningless and worthless. Compared to these, he wanted to know the source of Uchiha Izumi's thoughts.
In response to Kabuto Yakushi's question, Uchiha Izumi's answer was also very frank:
"It's not a sociology book. I read it in a science fiction novel."
Science fiction?
After hearing Uchiha Izumi's answer, Kabuto Yakushi and Hiroyo Fukuhara, who were pure ninjas, looked at each other again. To be honest, the two people from Konoha had never seen such a thing. Seeing the two people's confused looks, Uchiha Izumi shook his head helplessly and said:
"One of you is a genius doctoral student, and the other is a professor at a famous university. It's okay that you haven't read sociology books, but how come you haven't even read science fiction? Even if you haven't read fantasy novels like "Night on the Galactic Railroad", you should have heard of it! Oh, I suddenly feel so pitiful for the two of you, especially in terms of spirituality, you are so lacking!"
As he spoke, Uchiha Izumi finally realized why Konoha's internal struggle was so abstract. It turned out that this group of ninjas not only knew nothing about sociology, but also had very poor spiritual fantasies and pursuits. They were essentially a group of uneducated country bumpkins. How could such people lead the world to healthy development? So in the end, Uchiha Izumi said to the two people in front of him earnestly:
"Don't indulge in ninjutsu and scientific research all day long. Read more books when you have time! Whether it's sociology books or fantasy literature, their existence is valuable. Read more, read well, and read good books. Only by reading more can your brain be flexible and your vision broaden. Otherwise, even if you have powerful power, without the corresponding pattern and vision, this power will only become a scourge to human civilization."
