"You're too slow. The sun is setting. What were you doing?"
Upon Shiraishi's return, Ruri furrowed her brow and asked.
"I apologize. The dicinal ingredients I needed were quite rare. It took a while to find a place that sells them. Here, this is the natto you wanted."
Shiraishi apologized and tossed the bag of natto snacks to Ruri.
Ruri took the bag and her expression softened slightly.
"By the way, if I don't have anything else to do, I'll go back to the lab. There's still a lot of work to be done there."
Seeing Ruri still sitting there motionless, Shiraishi lifted his foot and left the room.
Having obtained Ayane's fresh body data, the remaining work can only be done by himself.
The next mission would be coming soon, and they would leave the village again within two weeks at the latest.
Konoha still had a fierce battle to fight. As one of Konoha's top elite Jonin and their Team 5 leader, Hatake Sakumo couldn't stay in the village for too long.
As for the specifics of the upcoming mission, Shiraishi couldn't deduce any useful information from the available intelligence. However, he was certain that the mission's difficulty would be at least A-level.
Upon returning to the laboratory, he opened one of the secret doors, revealing a 30-square-ter room with an ergency toilet and shower. This was where the five individuals used for human experints usually resided.
The lights inside were always on, so when Shiraishi opened the door, he could clearly see their appearances, causing their bodies to shake unnaturally.
One person then walked out consciously in order. Although their spirits had recovered to so extent after a long rest, terrifying mories flooded their minds, and they likely knew what Shiraishi had planned for them next, causing their faces to turn pale.
Shiraishi nodded with so satisfaction. That's right.
If they cooperated willingly and didn't resist, they would receive rich and nutritious als as a matter of course, making their lives much better than those of the wandering bloodthirsty criminals outside.
After the man walked out, Shiraishi looked at the remaining four individuals, took out two moderately thick books from his ninja bag, and tossed them in front of them.
"Read these books when you have nothing to do. Books are a valuable tool for human progress."
The four prisoners exchanged puzzled glances, wondering what Shiraishi was up to.
Shiraishi didn't explain further. The main reason was that these individuals often appeared bored, so he found two books for them to read. It would help them pass the ti and greatly contribute to their ntal recovery.
Shiraishi closed the secret door. When he turned around, he noticed that the man who had co out earlier was already lying on the operating table, staring at the ceiling lights with wide-open eyes.
If they couldn't resist, they might as well try to enjoy it.
After all, they didn't need to worry about food and clothing. Their situation was indeed much better than the chaotic existence outside.
"Shiraishi-sama, could you give
more anesthesia?"
The man turned his head and asked Shiraishi in a low voice.
"...,"
Shiraishi didn't know how to respond to the request.
However, it didn't align with the experint's objectives.
Excessive use of anesthesia could lead to circulatory failure and cardiac arrest in the human body. Caution was required in both dosage and usage.
"Don't worry. Based on humanistic principles in conducting experints, I am responsible for your health and safety. Compared to last ti, my experint has made significant progress, and it shouldn't be as painful."
Shiraishi explained patiently.
Konoha didn't establish guidelines for human experints, but Shiraishi always adhered to the ethical principles from his previous life.
In conducting human experints, which were inherently unethical, they couldn't be used haphazardly.
To protect the physical well-being of the subjects, advance dical developnt, and adhere to the principles of science, Shiraishi followed these guidelines.
When a subject showed signs of ntal breakdown, the experint was promptly halted, and another subject would be substituted.
Furthermore, successful implentation of magic could contribute to dical advancents.
The experint itself aligned with scientific principles. With a complete theoretical foundation and accumulated animal cases, the risks were relatively low.
Starting with human subjects from the beginning wasn't because progress was slow; it was a violation of the first principle of inford consent from the parties involved. However, in these war-torn years, Shiraishi felt he could take liberties and didn't need to differentiate so ticulously.
Shiraishi picked up a syringe filled with liquid natural energy and began injecting it into the subject.
To avoid complications, he adjusted the injection of natural energy based on the subject's physical qualities, including their maximum chakra capacity, to ensure a neutralizing reaction and the creation of complete fairy chakra within the subject's body.
After achieving the senjutsu Chakra, it was necessary to carefully observe the experint subject's reaction to the Chakra, the duration of the reaction, and whether it caused damage to various organs in the human body.
He already knew that practicing sage mode was fraught with unknown dangers when he perford combination of chakra and senjutsu chakra on animals. It was precisely because of these unknowns that he needed to proceed with caution and not take overly ambitious steps.
In the experint, the entire body of the subject was connected to delicate wires, with the wire terminals linked to a large computer that could promptly record and accurately store various physical data of the subject in its database.
Thus, the experintal subject was placed on the operating table, and the computer continuously recorded the data.
Shiraishi initiated another experint—the breaking of the caged bird curse.
The question of whether chakra would perish after being depleted had been weighing on Shiraishi's mind. However, such an experint couldn't be conducted directly on a human body, so he started with animals.
Similar to humans, animals in nature also possessed chakra within their bodies.
To this end, Shiraishi prepared fifty guinea pigs for the "chakra depletion" experint.
If this experint succeeded, it would greatly aid in deciphering the caged bird curse.
Even if a perfect solution couldn't be found, it would at least provide a reasonable approach.
An hour later, the experint involving the neutralization of natural energy and ordinary chakra had concluded for the subject.
The results of the experint showed so improvent compared to the previous attempt. At this rate, there was a high probability that Shiraishi would discover a system of immortality suitable for human cultivation before leaving Konoha.
He disconnected the wires from the subject and allowed them to return to the room behind the secret door.
Before leaving, the subject took two books from the shelf beside them and glanced at Shiraishi, curious about his reaction.
Shiraishi simply turned a blind eye and remained silent.
The shelves contained various books, including history, geography, chemistry, and biology, but no important research materials were among them.
Learning was a vital process for enlightening human beings. With their enthusiasm for learning, Shiraishi was naturally willing to support them.
However, when the ti ca to be a test subject, it was important to fulfill that role.
Shiraishi looked at the guinea pig on the testing bench that had perished due to chakra depletion and shook his head.
The experint had failed.
Although he had tried to save the lives of these mice, the results were still unsatisfactory.
Seeing that it was nearly ti, Shiraishi was about to leave the laboratory when a sudden chill gripped his throat, causing his entire body to tense.
A sharp kunai was positioned just in front of Shiraishi's throat, poised to end his life with a single stroke.
