Inside the Laboratory, everyone tensely watched the solution in the equipment, time passing by second by second.
A full 10 minutes passed, but the liquid surface in the petri dish remained as still as an ancient well, the solution a translucent crimson gold, without any ripples.
"Suc... Success!"
Orochimaru and Hiruko simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief, a deep sense of excitement showing in their eyes as they looked at each other!
Ten minutes had exceeded the possible range of error, indicating that the reaction was stable and the Gene Liquid had fused perfectly!
After six years of research, constantly changing experimental data, and countless failures, they had stumbled and struggled all the way, finally achieving success!
"Congratulations, Light."
Shin'yu sincerely felt happy that the experiment was successful. He had been planning for ten years, openly and secretly gathering talent, spending a lot of manpower and resources, and now he finally saw results.
Light narrowed her bright, beautiful eyes, her hands involuntarily covering her lips, her delicate face unable to hide her joy.
She was happy, not because she was about to obtain the power of Hashirama cells, but because of the smile on Shin'yu's lips.
Over the years, she had watched Shin'yu lay the groundwork, step by step, until today, and now that he had finally achieved his wish, she shared in the glory.
She calmed her emotions and stepped forward to Orochimaru and Hiruko.
Six years had passed, and these two had long grown from the green and ignorant teenagers they once were into young men of seventeen or eighteen years old. The original condescending view had gradually turned into an equal one, and now, Light even had to look up slightly to meet their eyes.
Not to mention that they had done their best in the experiment for her, she had watched these two grow up with her own eyes. Although they didn't spend every day together, when it came to care and concern, it was not inferior to Uchiha Nen at the Kannabi Bridge Base.
Therefore, in terms of both emotion and reason, she should solemnly say thank you.
But Shin'yu lightly followed her forward, his right hand around her waist, gently pulling on her shoulder strap.
She raised her eyes, a little puzzled, and met Shin'yu's meaningful gaze.
The two had been together for many years, whether as partners working together or as lovers relying on each other, they were a very reliable relationship, and their tacit understanding was self-evident. Therefore, she instantly understood Shin'yu's eyes.
You can thank me, no need to bow to subordinates, they should be thanking us.
Sure enough, as Shin'yu expected, Light only paused for a moment before Orochimaru and Hiruko walked over with sincere faces and bowed deeply to the two of them.
"Master, thank you for your guidance!"
This scene directly stunned Light.
Shin'yu calmly stepped forward, bent down slightly, and raised his hands to gently lift the two up.
"No need to say more, this is all your own strength."
His gaze was gentle, and his clear voice was like a spring breeze blowing through, making the two feel much more comfortable inside.
Unlike Uchiha Hikari's confusion, at this moment, the gratitude of the two towards Shin'yu was completely from the bottom of their hearts!
Although the ratio of this Kimaera solution was only fully applicable to Uchiha Hikari alone, this data still had milestone significance, and the two who participated in the research received different degrees of gains.
Orochimaru, who majored in genes and Chakra, became more proficient in biological science and technology and had a new understanding of life. Perhaps one day in the future, the technology of "cloning" would no longer be a vague guess and theory.
And Hiruko, who was devoted to the research of the Kimaera Plant, had a deeper understanding. He was already trying to transform his body through the Kimaera solution. The specific plan was: to use Chakra as a medium to directly fuse flesh and blood with the Kimaera solution, so as to achieve a special physique like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea!
This project will also be their next research goal.
"Do you remember what I said when I first met you?"
You all have some potential, and in my eyes, you are all good prospects...
Shin'yu smiled and slowly spread his palms, "This is your potential!"
The two were shocked and cast grateful glances at Shin'yu, with an excited expression of "I am willing to die for you, Master."
If this Master hadn't had the discerning eye to recognize their talent, provided them with time and space, and given them sufficient financial and material support, their talents would likely have been buried, and they would have been frustrated in their careers.
They would remember the kindness they received forever.
"According to the Second Hokage's experimental data, the successful fusion of the Gene Liquid should only be the first step, right?" Shin'yu said lightly.
"That's right," Orochimaru nodded in agreement. "Next is fusion with blood samples. Only after fully ensuring there are no abnormalities can the final injection be completed."
Hiruko's eyes lit up. "However, referring to past experimental records, as long as the first step is successful, there shouldn't be any problems afterward. Master, don't worry, we will put in twelve times the effort and will never fail!"
"You brat, don't speak too soon." Shin'yu shook his head in annoyance.
Three weeks later.
Uchiha Hikari gently sat up from the IV stand, looked at the empty vial hanging above her head, and decisively pulled out the needle from the back of her hand.
She had just finished the intravenous injection of the Kimaera solution.
Shin'yu held a tray in both hands and solemnly placed it in front of Light. A syringe was placed upright on the tray, crystal clear under the light, refracting a faint golden light.
Light took a deep breath, weakly raised her palm, and picked up the syringe.
After completing the injection of the Kimaera reagent, she now felt light all over, as if a gust of wind could blow her away. A soft and gentle aura flowed throughout her body, but there was no pain at all. Her Chakra was almost stagnant, indescribable.
She looked at the sharp and slender needle and couldn't help swallowing.
"Don't worry, I'm here." Shin'yu gave her a reassuring look. In his deep pupils, the beautiful Mangekyo patterns were reflected.
Behind him, Orochimaru and Hiruko both shrank their necks and looked nervously at her. Hiruko was also holding another transparent syringe in his hand.
She knew that this was a buffer prepared in advance to prevent the experiment from failing, which could fully eliminate the effects of the Kimaera reagent in her body.
She seemed to have made up her mind, closed her eyes, and with a slight movement of her slender hand, the needle accurately pierced into the artery at her neck and pushed in!
"Ugh."
She frowned slightly, letting the syringe fall to the ground and shatter, her body softly falling backward, falling into a warm embrace.
Shin'yu held his breath and concentrated, his hands holding the beauty motionless, his scarlet pupils flowing with a faint light, ready to use his Eye Technique at any time.
The surrounding air fell into a dead silence, and everyone stared at her.
Unlike the tranquility outside, earth-shattering changes were taking place in her body at this moment.
Her heart pumped powerfully, allowing the golden Gene Liquid to be transported throughout her body with the blood, penetrating into every cell. Genes were reorganized again and again, activating mysterious unknown sequences. Countless DNA molecules were linked and disconnected, and then connected to each other, revealing a strong aura of life...
At a certain moment, her eyes opened automatically, and red light burst out. Three black tomoe swirled and merged, like three swallows circling freely in the Evening Glow.
This was a transformation, but also a new life!
Soon, under the astonished gazes of the three, substantial white steam discharged from every pore of her body, her furrowed brows slowly relaxed, and an aura completely different from before spread throughout the Laboratory like a tide.
She slightly opened her eyes, looked at Shin'yu's worried gaze, and the corners of her mouth turned up, unconsciously smiling sweetly.
"Did it succeed?"
"It succeeded, you idiot."
Outside the observation room, Orochimaru and Hiruko were almost overjoyed; the two grown men were actually hugging each other at this moment.
"Fortunately, I didn't fail!"
"Fortunately, we didn't fail!"
