Chapter 137: Fish and Bait
After explaining everything in the cave to Kakashi, Tsunade and Shizune set out on a journey northeast.
On this trip, Tsunade brought all three brains in the tank, as well as the three devices that were used with the metal cylinder.
In addition to this, Tsunade also obtained a large amount of green juice from Mi Go's body, which could be used by the three brains in the tank for two months.
That said, this time the most conservative will take two months to return.
And on the way, Tsunade also tells Shizune where they are going this time.
It was an isolated island that was not marked on any map, and judging by the sea, it should be near the Land of Thunder.
And that isolated island is a real place outside the law, a paradise for the rich.
The most famous place is the Ninja Arena, where the rich of each country let their ninjas fight, and the winner gets the ninja of the loser.
In that place, even the Blood Inheritance Limit Ninja that the major ninja villages were so eager for were nothing more than commodity-like existences.
In addition, there are a variety of extremely luxurious Fengyue venues, as well as black market markets and auction houses where illegal underground auctions are conducted.
In short, it is a huge gold cave, where the supremacy of money and the ugliness of human nature are on full display.
Shizune listened to Tsunade's introduction and felt a little unbelievable, so he asked, "If it's so evil there, why isn't there a country to ban it?" ”
Listening to Mute's words, Tsunade smiled slightly and explained, "You are still too young, and it is too easy to think about the problem. ”
"The people there are either rich or noble, and they have a lot of wealth and ninja resources in their hands."
"If a certain country wants to sanction there, those rich people will definitely flee to other countries with money and ninjas, which is definitely a huge loss for the country that sanctions there."
"So as long as the antagonism of the five great powers does not change, that place will always exist."
After listening to Tsunade's explanation, Mute understood a little.
The relationship between the five great powers is like the two ends of the scale, and these rich people are like weights that move between the scales.
No country would want to let these weights run to the other end of the spectrum, so it will turn a blind eye to this kind of behavior.
"But what does that have to do with the people we're looking for?" Mute asked again.
"Because that person is a regular there, if there is the right bait, maybe the fish will bite the hook."
"I've already dropped the bait, I just want him to show up."
Tsunade said lightly.
...
In the cool cavern laboratory, an emaciated figure in a red cloud robe is experimenting.
He first placed a small piece of pink meat in the vessel, then used a dropper to drip a few drops of green viscous liquid into the vessel, and then used a microscope to observe the reaction taking place inside.
The few drops of green slime immediately attached to the pink pieces of meat, and gradually began to turn into the same pink color as the pieces of meat.
The newly formed pink slowly devours away the pink color of the original piece of meat, eventually replacing it, and then returning to its original green color all together.
"Sbarassi!"
Seeing this scene, the emaciated figure looked up to the sky and roared.
That's right, this person is Orochimaru, and the two subjects in his experiment are human skin tissue and Shogers cells.
Under the observation of the microscope just now, Shogers cells can easily engulf human flesh, and Shogers cells will actively mimic human cells.
If microscopically, Shogers can mimic human cells, then macroscopically, Shogers can also generate various human organs.
If we take it a step further, is it entirely possible to make a deformable human body out of Shoghal cells?
Unfortunately, this is only an idea that cannot be realized for the time being, because Shogers cells are difficult to control.
Although illusions can affect Shogoth, it is easy for Shogoths to fall into a state of frenzied devouring organic matter after the illusion ends.
Ever since obtaining the Ancients' biological samples from Payne, as well as the Shogoth samples, Orochimaru has conducted quite a few experiments.
After careful research, Orochimaru discovered that he was much more interested in Shogues than the ancients.
As a creature of the ancients, Shogues's biological evolution has surpassed that of his own creator.
No wonder the Ancients were betrayed by their own creation, Shogues, after all, no species would be willing to submit to a being weaker than themselves.
It's just that the number of Shogues that Payne handed over to Orochimaru is very small, and it is not enough for Orochimaru to conduct too many experiments.
But fortunately, Shogues is a life form that is extremely adaptable, and it is itself made of protoplasm.
Protoplasm is a general term for the living matter in a cell, which has the ability to differentiate into a complete cell.
It is precisely because of this that Shogues has the ability to adapt to the environment, and as long as it has enough energy, it can continue to differentiate into different cells.
Therefore, Orochimaru took advantage of this characteristic of Shogers and spent a lot of time cultivating quite a lot of Shogers cells.
Now in front of Orochimaru's eyes, almost all of the three liquid culture tanks are Shogoth cells.
That is, Shogues.
These nightmarish black and shiny forms are constantly making all sorts of unbelievable shapes in the jar, and each transformation is a great miracle for other lifeforms.
But for Shogues, these transformations are as simple as eating and drinking.
Of course, although the presence of Shogoth is more attractive, the presence of the ancient one Orochimaru is also of interest.
If this strange body structure can be applied to ninjas, it will definitely greatly increase the combat ability of ninjas.
It is not a problem to cultivate an amphibious ninja who belongs only to himself.
It's just that these experiments can't be carried out yet, because Orochimaru is still in the Xiao organization, and he can't show his ambitions in this regard.
Although the Xiao organization gave Orochimaru great patience in terms of experiments, they even deliberately reduced the number of missions for the combination of Orochimaru and Red Sand Scorpion.
But in the final analysis, it is only for the sake of capturing the pure-blooded deep diver in the future, so that Orochimaru can transform the white absolute for the Xiao organization.
It's a deal, and it's an investment.
But if before that, the Xiao organization found out that Orochimaru had different intentions, then it would definitely not hesitate to wipe out Orochimaru.
So Orochimaru doesn't dare to do anything too out of the ordinary now.
But some small actions that are not particularly violated, Orochimaru still dares to do it.
In the cave, a reticulated python made a "hissing" sound and crawled towards Orochimaru.
Orochimaru reached out and took the python to his arm, then took out a small web from the open snake's mouth.
Unfolding the paper, Orochimaru read it with interest.
After a while, Orochimaru smiled playfully.
"Talking brains... Is it? ”
