Chapter 229 EVA's Muscles and Bones
"These chakra metals are the bones of Unit-01. As for Unit-01's flesh, I plan to use the First Hokage's cells for cultivation. However, we don't have any right now, so we can only use other flesh and blood as a substitute."
When talking about his plans, Oniichiro spoke eloquently.
"Experiments cannot be completed overnight, so the first Unit-01 was only to verify feasibility and its strength will not be very strong. But don't worry, as my research capabilities become stronger and my experimental materials become more abundant, I am confident that Unit-01 will eventually be as powerful as the Ten-Tails, or even surpass the Ten-Tails."
After listening for two minutes, seeing that Kiichiro was becoming more and more enthusiastic and showed no sign of stopping, as if he intended to talk all night long, Mi Shou immediately left the base.
"Hey, I haven't finished yet! Eat before you leave!"
Kiichiro was very reluctant to see Mimori leave. He had only just begun to express his thoughts, so how could he leave without an audience?
I can't possibly tell these things to Ghost Vine and the other guys!
Mimori didn't tolerate Kiichiro at all and quickly disappeared from the base, leaving only one sentence behind.
"Knowing that experiments can't be accomplished overnight, stop talking nonsense and get to the research!"
Kiichiro smacked his lips, still wanting more, and reluctantly returned to the laboratory. Suppressing his urge to confide, he put his large glasses back on.
"Other research will have to be put on hold for now. We need to focus on setting up the framework for Unit-01 during this time."
While studying the properties of chakra metal, Kiichiro also planned his strategy for the next period of time.
"To create Unit-01, we need a soul. Ideally, it should be a human soul that is very loyal to us. However, such people are rare and precious, and we cannot sacrifice them rashly. Let's use the soul of a summoning beast for now, and replace it with a human soul when the technology is mature."
"To ensure the loyalty of the summoned beast's soul, we also need to create a sealing technique to control it. We also need to select the bloodline limit, preferably one that is relatively stable at the genetic level to reduce the difficulty of the experiment. It can't be too strong either, otherwise if Unit-01 goes berserk, it will be a big problem."
Amidst the busyness, several days passed, and Kiichiro basically mastered the properties of chakra metal and wrote a thick experimental report.
On this day, Oniichiro sent out a shadow clone to handle business matters and instruct the four Oni-fun, while his main body continued its research.
On the test bench, there are several short, thin pieces of chakra metal.
On this day, Kiichiro began to study a new topic: the fusion of chakra metal and flesh.
In terms of physical body, there are three options: Kiichiro's own physical body, the physical bodies of the Uzumaki clan, and the physical bodies of the Kaguya clan.
The materials for the Uzumaki clan came from Masao Uzumaki and Nagato, and were sent by Nobuo Ooka.
The material for the Kaguya clan comes from Kaguya Teppei, who was captured by Mikami.
These materials have already been used to create many backups, allowing for multiple experiments to be conducted simultaneously, thus reducing the error rate.
The advantage of Oniichiro's physical tissue is its high compatibility with Oniichiro, making it easy to control.
Unfortunately, experiments showed that Kiichiro's flesh and blood tissue had a very low compatibility with chakra metal and was not strong enough to withstand the powerful chakra, so he was ruled out first.
The flesh and blood tissues of both the Uzumaki clan and the Kaguya clan are well-suited to chakra metal.
In particular, flesh and blood tissue cultured with Nagato cells has the highest efficiency in absorbing nutrients, the strongest chakra tolerance, and the strongest activity.
In the petri dish, under the stimulation of chakra, Nagato's flesh and blood tissue grew from the size of a grain of rice to the size of a finger in a short time, completely enveloping the chakra metal, far exceeding the other groups.
"Nagato is truly different. I wonder if he was always like this, or if he was influenced by the Rinnegan, or perhaps both."
Unsurprisingly, Kiichiro chose flesh and blood tissue cultured from Nagato cells.
More than ten days later, Kiichiro completed the entire experiment and recorded a large amount of experimental data, but he did not feel relaxed at all.
"Small pieces of chakra metal can fit together with flesh and blood, but scaling it up to the scale of EVA might not be successful."
Kiichiro shook his head, shaking off the troublesome problem, and walked out of the base, returning to his manor in the Land of Lightning.
"Itakura Ko, take off your shirt."
"Yes."
Inside the room, Itakura Ko stood shirtless in front of Kiichiro.
Kiichiro glanced at Itakura Ko's smooth skin and flowing muscle lines, then looked down at his own protruding belly and felt a pang of sympathy.
"Boys need to be a little darker-skinned and rougher to be manly. You still need to work on that."
Kiichiro spoke insincerely, while his left hand formed a hand seal and his right hand pressed against Itakura Ko's stomach.
On Itakura Ko's stomach, there was a sealing technique resembling the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams.
Kiichiro placed his right hand on the spell, and the spell emitted a bright light. The light then dissipated, but the spell became clearer than before.
"Alright, I've reinforced the seal."
Itakura Ko smiled and said, "Thank you, sir."
Kiichiro shook his head: "Once you grow up, you might be able to control the energy within your body, and then you won't have to go through all this trouble."
Itakura Kou's physique is somewhat special, allowing him to easily attract natural energy.
In the past, he couldn't control this ability, and the natural energy continued to accumulate in his body little by little. Over time, the natural energy became too much, and Itakura Ko's body couldn't handle it, which would cause him to experience symptoms such as coma and fever.
Fortunately, Itakura Ko's body is not a black hole, so it won't just take in and not give out.
When there is too much natural energy, exceeding the body's tolerance limit, Itakura Ko's body will stop absorbing it.
After a few days, the natural energy in Itakura Ko's body is gradually consumed, and Itakura Ko's body recovers. Then he absorbs it again, and so on. Therefore, Itakura Ko will fall into a coma periodically.
In some ways, Ko Itakura is somewhat similar to Jugo.
Unfortunately, Kiichiro doesn't have time to delve into the study of sage techniques right now. He simply placed a seal on Itakura Ko, isolating him from natural energy and freeing him from his periodic comas, but he won't develop Itakura Ko's abilities.
In the future, Orochimaru will have a deep understanding of Sage Mode. We should try to get information from him later, which will save a lot of time.
Ko Itakura was unaware of Ichiro's thoughts; he was simply overjoyed that he no longer had to fall into a coma periodically.
"Have you completed the task I gave you?"
After Itakura Ko got dressed, Kiichiro asked another question.
Itakura Ko nodded: "The first batch of goods will be delivered this afternoon."
After obtaining the chakra metal, Kiichiro had his shadow clones take a portion of it and deliver it to Itakura Ko, who then found a skilled craftsman to forge the chakra metal.
After all, the chakra metal that Mikami brought back was all in rectangular ingots, which could not be used directly and had to be processed.
As per Mikami's request, a portion of the chakra metal was to become bones, and a portion of the chakra was to become meridians.
Bones support the body, and veins supply chakra throughout the body.
Therefore, the items that Misato received consisted of two parts: huge metal pillars and joints, and thin, tough hollow metal wires.
Having obtained these supplies, Mi Shou went to the base near the manor, found the Ghost Vine who was conducting secondary research, took away a batch of experimental materials and supplies, and returned to the cliff base once again.
