Chapter 49: Natural Predators
The rest of the time was a bit dull, Sakura studied quietly, Mizuki entertained the patronizing guests from time to time, and tidied up the store's furnishings, although he was still not familiar with this, but he could barely make jokes. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Near noon, Tsubaki brought a few people's lunch boxes, and the three of them gathered around a small table and ate lunch casually.
"Mizuki-sensei and Tsubaki-senpai, how did they meet?" Sakura seemed to be interested in the relationship between the two.
"We've known each other since we were kids, and we grew up together. Tsubaki replied very cheerfully.
"Such a young girl has gossip attributes?" Mizuki couldn't help but complain to Sakura in his heart.
"Huh?" the simple answer obviously didn't satisfy Sakura, "It's so good, the relationship that has been cultivated since childhood, if only Sasuke and I could go well." ”
"Don't you know that childhood sweethearts are generally no match for the heavens?" Mizuki couldn't help but say, "You have to keep an eye on your Sasuke, maybe you will be snatched away by a strange girl who appeared out of nowhere." ”
"Is that so? What is the Heavenly Descending System?" Sakura didn't quite understand.
"Mizuki," Tsubaki reproached, "don't talk nonsense. ”
Then he comforted Sakura and said, "Don't listen to his nonsense, you work so hard, Sasuke will see it." ”
……
After a hurried lunch, Sakura continues her studies, but Tsubaki pulls Mizuki aside, as if she has something to say.
"What's wrong?" Mizuki said as he looked at Tsubaki.
"Something seems to be wrong with those experiments of yours?"
"What?" was really shocking news for Mizuki.
"It changed a little bit a few days ago, I thought it was normal, but today I realized something was wrong. ”
"Did you bring anything?"
"I picked a few samples and brought them back. ”
"That's right," Mizuki said to Sakura, turning to Sakura, "We're going to leave a little bit beforehand, so I'll trouble Sakura for you to take care of the store." ”
"Okay, Mizuki-sensei. Sakura agreed.
When he got home, Mizuki couldn't wait to take Tsubaki's sealing scroll and open it to take a look.
"It's really anomalous, it's very degenerate. 』
If this is the only thing, it will not surprise Mizuki, the atavistic phenomenon that only occurs by the stimulation of the potion, without the interference of external forces, as the development is complete, most of the variation should be degraded and disappeared, and it is only right that it is covered up by the characteristics that play a greater role. A mere empty shell of the flesh, without corresponding strength and internal support, the mutation brought about by the alienation of power should be the first to disappear.
However, it was clear that something was wrong with the subjects. It seems that most of these should be clones of Sasuke Uchiha, but the vertical crack in the third eye on the forehead has completely disappeared, and the two horns on the head are almost invisible. If these are still expected, then it is inconceivable that the overall appearance of abnormal aging and atrophy is incredible, with Sasuke's age and talent, the cell activity is far greater than that of Mizuki, but Mizuki's clone is still alive and well after a series of overdrafts, and Sasuke's clone can't support it first. Completely unconscionable.
"Could it be that the atavistic mutation that is too powerful has overdrawn too much vitality in disguise? Without a corresponding foundation, trying to master too high-end power is the end of this?"
After thinking about it, Mizuki took out a little of the chakra that he had collected when Sasuke's spell mark exploded, and divided it into a smaller, but extremely aging sample. In an instant, I saw that it quickly absorbed the nutrient solution, growing at an extremely terrifying speed, and the red and black runes covered the whole body in a blink of an eye, and an inexplicable fluctuation that could not even stop the obscuring enchantment of the room spread out.
At this moment, in the special care ward of Konoha Hospital, Sasuke, who had been sleeping smoothly with his injuries, suddenly broke out abnormally with the curse seal, and the curse mark stimulated by the fluctuations not far away slowly broke through the shackles of the evil seal. And the sharp pain suddenly made Sasuke scream in his sleep, and immediately alarmed the dark part on duty.
"What's going on?" "Faced with such a change, the dark part was helpless, completely unaware of what was going on, "Wasn't it okay just now? The injury worsened, and why did the curse suddenly erupt?"
Hearing the movement, Kakashi Hachiki, who was not far away, hurriedly came over, checked it and asked, "Did something happen just now?"
"Not at all, it happened all of a sudden. ”
"Well," Kakashi instructed after a moment's thought, "check the neighborhood carefully to see if someone or something has stimulated the spell sigil." ”
"Yes. The darkness dissipated in a blink of an eye.
In a private house not far from the hospital, Yakushidou, who was observing the situation from a distance and preparing to attack Uchiha Sasuke, saw that the hospital had suddenly strengthened its security, and the original plan had to be postponed for the time being.
Far away in the Ninja Village of Tanokuni, he was preparing for the assassination of the Wind Shadow Orochimaru, and he also felt movement in the direction of Konoha.
"What's the matter, the power of this curse seal? Could it be that someone has taken a fancy to my Sasuke? Is it Danzo? It's not like the three generations won't hand over the last Uchiha of the village to Danzo. Three generations of old men are so pedantic, they must not be able to use their hands and feet, so that means, has anyone taken a fancy to the power of the curse mark and is ready to crack it?" Orochimaru thought of the attackers of the Death Forest for a moment.
"I don't know if it's the same person, I didn't expect that I haven't been in Konoha for many years, and there is such an interesting guy as a lurker in it, so I must have a good look at it next time." 』
Inside the house, the two of them were watching this terrible change in horror.
"Mizuki, what the hell did you do?" Tsubaki couldn't figure out the situation at all.
"I don't know. Mizuki replied with a wry smile, who would have thought that Chakra, which contained a little bit of the power of the curse mark, would have such a terrifying change?
I saw that the clone on the opposite side grew rapidly, and soon broke through the shackles of the petri dish, and the coercion exuded from the body became stronger and stronger, and soon after, the body that had grown to the limit began to stabilize, but the evil consequences of rapid growth began to appear, and the ends of the limbs aged rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
As the body continues to overdraw, the aura of the superior emitted becomes more and more powerful, and the clones that have grown to the limit also start from the end of aging, and gradually turn into wisps of black ash and fall down. The whole body also trembled slightly, showing an eerie red color. The closed eyes trembled slightly, as if there were signs of opening, and a natural enemy aura that had been in the upper position for a long time and made people involuntarily lose the ability to resist was about to explode with the eyes.
"Not good. Mizuki endured the fear in his heart, took out the kunai, swung it hard, and the kunai shot out, directly blinding the other party's eyes.
But it's not over yet, the blind clone's mouth is wide open, as if with the unwillingness that he has not seen the true face of the world since he was born, his body has accelerated its volatilization, and its limbs have long since turned into powder, and the decay gradually extends beyond the torso.
The clone's body continued to disappear, but the hair grew abnormally fast, and then Mizuki saw an even more terrifying scene, the third eye position of the forehead that should have disappeared a long time ago, something bulged slightly, and the skin here was stretched out with a crack, and the tissue that should not have existed for a long time was about to appear in front of the person when all the life force of the whole body cells were supplied.
