I heard the sound of someone moving.

Hinata Shingo woke up from a drowsy and wanted to open his eyes, but found that he had lost sensation in his limbs at the moment, and the only thing that could function in his entire body was probably his brain.

I don't even have the strength to open my eyes.

He could hear someone walking around him, but he didn't know who it was or what it was.

I could only feel that the place where I was lying now was very cold, and there was a smell similar to disinfectant water in my nostrils, as if I was in a hospital.

An icy and serious atmosphere enveloped him.

As if sensing the slight movement of Hinata's body on the operating table, the young man in a white hooded coat standing next to a table looked towards the position of the operating table, and continued to lower his head to prepare the medicine.

This teenager is none other than Shiraishi.

Because the next thing to do is to crack the experiment of caged birds, many conditions need to be prepared in advance.

First of all, there must be the living body of the Hyuga family ninja, after all, he can't directly use Ayane's body to do this dangerous experiment that is completely unsafe.

Although he had previously experimented with humans, the human body could replace life energy with natural energy in the event of losing chakra.

But those are just ordinary human bodies, what they want is only a general conclusion, and in terms of details, they still need to continue to penetrate.

Not only does he have to save Ayane's life, but he also has incomparably precious white eyes, which he can't give up easily.

Therefore, he let the five insect men hunt the ninjas of Hinata's family, the ninjas of this clan all have white eyes, and ordinary people and ninjas have no possibility of hiding in the eyes of white eyes.

In terms of insight, even the writing wheel eye is far inferior.

However, the five worm men did not only rely on Chakra to fight, abandoning Chakra, for them, it only limited their secret arts, but their physical skills were also good.

And the natural energy is not afraid of the points.

The point of the Hyuga clan can only cut off the flow of chakra, and the five worm men have a natural advantage in the face of Hyuga Shingo.

Using natural energy to perform physical skills is equivalent to making Hinata's Shingo, the soft fist of the famous Shinobi, useless.

In that case, Hinata's physical power is greatly reduced, and it is only a matter of time before he is hunted.

It was Ayane who provided the list, but it was the clay doll named 'Shogun Earth' by Shiraishi who was in charge of monitoring.

In terms of latent ability, Shiraishi believes that the ability of the 'Earth General' is not weaker than that of the white creature that fuses the elements of Mu Dun and Tailed Beast.

As long as the whereabouts of the Hinata ninja can be determined, the rest is very simple.

After the hunt was successful, General Tu quietly transported it back to Konoha and sent it to the laboratory, where it was handed over to Shiraishi for disposal.

After Shiraishi mixed the medicine, he put it in the medicine tray that was already filled with the utensils, walked to the operating table with the medicine tray, and after putting the tray away, he began to carefully observe Hinata Shingo's body.

It was an hour before Hinata Shingo was sent here, and according to the time when Hinata's team returned to the village, it should normally be tomorrow night, or the morning after tomorrow, to return to Konoha on time and report to the Hokage Building.

If Konoha finds out that Hinata Shingo is missing, he will definitely go and tell the Hyuga clan about it, and as for what will happen after that, Shiraishi can't guarantee it 100%.

To be on the safe side, the time left for Shiraishi is not very sufficient.

It can be seen that Hinata Sago, who is lying on the operating table, is very nervous, because as a shinobi, he has already noticed that someone is staring at him.

His forehead guard had been removed, revealing a green crossed spell mark on his forehead, and two reverse green hooks beside it.

This is the caged bird curse mark engraved on the ninja of the Hyuga family.

It is also a problem that Shiraishi urgently needs to solve.

The chakra in Hinata's body was in a state of being blocked, and he couldn't activate his white eyes, and because he couldn't open his eyes, he couldn't see who was standing next to him and what kind of place this was.

Shiraishi picked up a clear glass bottle from the medicine plate, which was made of materials that were easy to absorb chakra, and attached an engraving spell to the glass bottle, placing the mouth of the glass bottle towards Hinata's chest.

The chakra flowed through the palm of his hand, triggering the spell on the bottle, and immediately produced a powerful absorption effect, and at a speed visible to the naked eye, the chakra in Hinata's body converged towards the glass bottle at a uniform speed.

As the chakra in the glass bottle becomes darker and darker, it proves that more and more chakra are converging inside.

Shiraishi ignored these and turned on his perception to the fullest, staring at Hinata's every move.

He had to feel for himself how the caged bird's curse mark appeared.

According to Ayane, there are two forms of triggering for the Caged Bird Spell Mark, one of which is activated by the ninja of the clan.

You can choose to make the Hyuga Split Ninja miserable, and you can choose to destroy the eyeballs and cranial nerves of the Hyuga Split Ninja.

This is the active triggering of the caged bird's curse mark.

Another way to trigger it is that when the ninja of the Hyuga family dies, or when the eyes are removed, the caged bird curse mark will directly destroy the eyeballs and cranial nerves of the ninja who is divided.

This is the exact opposite of the active form of passive triggering.

It's a very terrible spell.

"Ahh

Suddenly, when the chakra content was already low enough to be life-threatening, Hinata's body broke through the limit of the control of the special anesthetic, and he let out a miserable scream in horror.

At a speed visible to the naked eye, the spell on his head glowed green, producing a form of chakra that Shiraishi had never seen before.

After this chakra was generated, in Shiraishi's perception, it began to flow directly into Hinata's brain, and it was very destructive.

It is completely different from the chakra flow produced by the glass opening the writing wheel.

Shiraishi interrupted the absorption of the chakra in Hinata's body, and the chakra in the glass bottle began to flow back, and the caged bird curse mark on Hinata's forehead returned to calm, and the chakra also retracted towards the curse mark.

Shiraishi picked up the glass bottle that had absorbed the chakra, and there was a clearly visible crack on it, which shattered in Shiraishi's hand, and the remnants of the glass fell to the ground one by one.

"That's the case."

Seeing Hinata Shingo pass out in extreme pain, Shiraishi exhaled softly.

The preview didn't turn out more than he expected.

The so-called 'technique', no matter what kind of evolution it undergoes, is actually an application of chakra.

Take the illusion of the Sharingan as an example, to achieve the condition of 'eye to see', use your own chakra to invade the target's cranial nerves, and manipulate the chakra flow in the specified target's cranial nerves.

If there is no chakra in the target's body, only natural energy, then the illusion of the writing wheel will be useless.

This is due to the loss of the preconditions for manipulating the target.

It's not just about writing chakras, it's also about other illusions.

The premise is that the other party must have the energy of chakra in their body, and although the natural energy and chakra are similar, but the two have not fused into immortal chakra, then the 'systems' of both sides cannot interfere with each other.

If it's an illusion that is performed with immortal magic, then it's a different story.

A fairy system that combines natural energy and chakra, it is natural to perform illusion manipulation on targets that only have natural energy.

No matter what kind of illusion it is, it is time-sensitive.

The chakra sent out is not infinite, and no matter how hard you try to maintain it, the consumption of chakra is a problem.

This means that as long as the time continues to be extended, the ninja who casts the illusion will be cracked due to the lack of chakra.

Chakra was unable to sustain the concept of illusion.

Ninjutsu and Spell Seal are also such templates.

Timeliness.

The flame released by the fire has a short period of existence, unless there is something combustible that can keep the flame burning for a long time.

Because these flames are not real flames, they are essentially chakras, and they just form the concept of 'magic'.

The maintenance of the spell is not continuous, and there must be a mechanism of 'timeliness'.

But how to make the Caged Bird Spell Seal achieve the condition of being timely, after the observation just now, that is the moment when the Caged Bird Spell Seal is activated.

Shiraishi used the perception generated by the Spiritualization Technique to discover that the special chakra generated when the caged bird curse mark was triggered just now was staying inside Hinata's cranial nerves.

But this didn't last long, and this special chakra disappeared in the other party's cranial nerves.

A slight smile appeared on Shiraishi's face.

The experiment was a little more dangerous, and the results didn't seem to be so bad.

At the moment when the spell spell is activated, the system formed by the spell spell will produce a materialized chakra.

That part of the chakra can't be recovered by the caged bird curse mark, which is equivalent to being consumed.

As long as this is repeated back and forth, sooner or later, the caged bird spell will lose the chakra that maintains the concept of 'magic', and will decompose from the inside.

"The Caged Bird Curse Mark has not been fully triggered, and it seems that the death method of disappearing Chakra can be regarded as one of the triggering forms of the Caged Bird Curse Mark."

When you think about it this way, it's a lot easier.

Both the conditions and the assumptions are true.

He also has a complete way to replace Chakra's life energy, which can ensure the survival of the human body unharmed after abandoning Chakra.

Shiraishi placed his palm on Hinata's forehead and sensed his cranial nerves in detail.

Only this situation is a bit bad, and it is also the most important part of the experimental process.

The chakra extraction was interrupted in time before, and the caged bird curse mark did not completely explode, but the special chakra went straight to Hinata's cranial nerves and destroyed it.

The trouble is here.

If you can repeat the experiment back and forth, it is not difficult to decompose the caged bird curse mark by constantly flowing chakra, but now we need to consider how to ensure the safety of the brain nerves of the experimental subject when the caged bird curse mark is triggered.

Shiraishi pondered, then crouched on the ground and picked up the shards of glass on the ground.

The prop used to absorb the chakra shattered, and on the glass shards, in addition to the chakra breath of Hinata Shingo himself, there was another residual chakra breath.

It was two different chakras that collided with each other, causing the glass bottle to shatter.

"I was attracted to it a little bit, but it didn't seem to be strong enough...... It seems that it is better to choose a prop with a stronger attachment power. ”

Shiraishi walked to the nearby shelf, picked up two chakra bottles, then grabbed a syringe from the medicine tray, and began to inject the potion into the body of Hinata Shingo.

This is a medicine used to maintain the body's activity.

Because the next experiment is even more dangerous than just now, it is necessary to improve Hinata's ability to recover himself.

Otherwise, the subject will die in the experiment before the experiment is over.

With Shingo Hinata unconscious, Shiraishi begins a second experiment.

This time, Shiraishi was going to use two chakra bottles, one chakra bottle with regular adsorption, which was placed on Hinata's chest according to the rhythm just now, and the other chakra bottle with stronger adsorption power was placed on his forehead.

As long as the Caged Bird Curse Seal is triggered again and a special chakra is generated, absorb the special chakra to see if it works.

As a result, Hinata's painful screams always sounded from time to time on the operating table, and they were heard endlessly.

“……”

It was about two hours later, looking at the dying Hinata, that Shiraishi stopped the experiment.

If it continues, it feels like Hinata Shingo will die of pain.

Shiraishi couldn't help frowning in thought.

In the experiments he had been conducting just now, he discovered that the special chakra produced when the caged bird spell mark was triggered had a very strong attachment to Hinata's body.

Even if you keep switching to a chakra bottle with a stronger absorption power, the effect is minimal.

If this continues, even if you use better adsorption props, it will not be of any use.

And Hinata Shingo will be able to hold on to a few tests in the future, and Shiraishi does not dare to have any guarantees.

The moment the caged bird curse mark is triggered, the pain and lethality to the human body are far beyond Baishi's imagination.

"A spell spell developed specifically for the white eye?"

If this is the case, it is not difficult to imagine the close connection between the caged bird's curse mark and the white eyes.

Through the experiment just now, Shiraishi has a certain degree of confidence in the way the caged bird curse mark destroys the ninja of the Hyuga family, as well as how to regulate the risk.

"It's too much time to delay like this......"

Shiraishi didn't dare to try to make Hinata Shingo die directly, so as to make a more thorough observation.

This means that Shiraishi has to keep capturing the ninjas of the Hyuga family, and once or twice he can fool the past, and more than three times, no matter how stupid the people of the Hyuga clan are, they should know that someone is acting against them.

At that time, it is likely that the Hyuga Split Ninja will not go out of the village to carry out missions again.

At that point, it was very difficult to obtain test subjects.

Moreover, at this point of analysis, there is no need to study the body of the Hinata family ninja.

The connection between the caged bird's curse mark and the mutilated white eye, including how it is generated and how to deal with it, has been learned by Shiraishi.

Now only one finished sample is left for observation.

- Hunting Hyuga ninja.

Understand the difference between the white eyes of the two, and even use the magic of spiritualization to possess its spiritual world, find the secret information of the caged bird, and reverse the deduction of the caged bird technique.

In this way, the experiment of cracking the curse mark of the caged bird can be truly foolproof.

This matter cannot be troubled by Ayane, and it must be planned by herself.

Compared with the ninjas of the Hyuga clan, the ninjas of the Hyuga clan rarely go out to perform tasks, and even if they go out to perform tasks, they are likely to be protected by strong guards of the Dividing Family in secret.

"The five of them can't deal with so many powerful ninjas alone, and it's likely that the target will escape, so it seems that I have to find a chance to leave the village once."

Shiraishi ended his experiment with Hinata's Shingo and thought about how to hunt the ninjas of the Hyuga clan next.

◎

Three days passed, in the afternoon.

Konoha Kamishinobi Hinata Shingo disappeared, and when the three generations of Hokage apes saw the information presented by the shadows, they couldn't help frowning.

Because according to the mission he assigned to Hinata's Scaru team, he should have returned to Konoha yesterday morning and reported the mission process to the Hokage Building.

However, more than a day has passed since yesterday morning.

According to the shadows operating in the Land of Fire, no trace of Hinata's Steam was found.

At present, there are four dark ninjas who are rushing to the country of waves to investigate the disappearance of Shingo Hinata.

The disappearance of a shinobi for no reason is not a trivial matter for Konoha.

It just so happens that in recent years, the environment at home and abroad has been relatively peaceful, and the workload of the dark department has been greatly reduced, and there is no need to stare at the territory of the Fire Country all day to eliminate dangers.

However, it is estimated that it will take four or five days for the dark troops to go to the country of waves to investigate the situation before they can come back and report the situation.

Thinking of this, Naruto slashed the table, and a shadow ninja jumped out of the shadows, waiting for orders.

"Give this to the Hyuga clan patriarch."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

The Shadow Ninja took the scroll from Hisachi's hand and disappeared from his office.

After the shadow ninja disappeared, Hizaki took a breath of relief.

Although it's not a major matter related to the village, Kaminobi lost contact for no reason, and he is still a ninja of the Hyuga clan, so it is reasonable to communicate with the Hyuga clan in a timely manner.

After all, the ninjas of this clan are a bit special.

The ninjas who are restricted by the curse mark of the caged bird in the clan of the sect, let them judge for themselves if there is anything in it.

As the Hokage, it's really hard for him to handle these more sensitive household matters.

In this way, time passed bit by bit, and the sun saw that the sky outside had been completely darkened unconsciously, so he packed up the materials on the desktop, walked outside, and went home to rest.

No more than half an hour after Hizai left, the office was dim, supported only by a little moonlight.

Without the slightest sound, a bulge bulged up on the floor of the office, and pale golden eyes roamed the office.

The body slowly detached from the floor, turning into a soft, sticky, twisted humanoid, and began to quietly search for the mission information recently released by Konoha on the desk.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly a black shadow approached quickly, and with a snort, the silver shinobi blade slashed through the air.

Mercilessly, the distorted humanoid was cut in two.

The upper half of his body flew out and clattered against the wall.

With a pair of pale golden eyes full of inorganic substance, he stared directly at the dark part of Konoha that suddenly appeared.

There was no fear in its eyes, just a purr of words that it didn't understand.

Then, under the surprised gaze of the Konoha dark part, the lower body that stayed next to the desk, turned the floor into a swamp, and disappeared into it.

Seeing this, the Konoha Shadow immediately swung his blade and slashed at the upper body of the humanoid that was stuck to the wall again.

The upper body was the same as the lower body just now, using the wall as a swamp, and the body was completely immersed in it, and it began to retreat.

The blade sliced through the air, only to stab the hard wall, cutting a crack.
