Six Tails Muzan

"Orochimaru transplanted something into me, causing my powers to spiral out of control…"

Under the control of the Sharingan, the captive Jugo was spilling everything that had happened to him like beans from a bamboo tube.

No matter how unskilled Sasuke was at Genjutsu, after awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan, ordinary people simply couldn't resist. Jugo, who had been weakened by the Mystical Palm Technique, was even more helpless.

Lin Ke was familiar with the first part of the story: Jugo was taken away by Orochimaru, who developed the Cursed Seal, and he met Kimimaro. But then the story took a sudden turn.

Orochimaru transplanted cells from an unknown creature into Jugo's body. The power of the original Cursed Seal went out of control, and his special abilities, Re-Cell Absorption and Re-Cell Expulsion, were greatly enhanced. His body broke through its size limitations, and he could squander endless Natural Energy at will.

The price was the constant annihilation of cells inside his body. The more Natural Energy he used, the faster the cells were annihilated. His regeneration couldn't keep up with the annihilation, and his bloodthirsty alter ego took control. To ensure his survival, he constantly used Re-Cell Absorption to absorb cells from other living beings to sustain himself. Finally, Orochimaru sealed him in an underground cell in the Base with a special Barrier.

As for the other monsters, they were all like him: after the transplantation surgery, their Cursed Seals went out of control. Because their lives were threatened, they mastered incomplete versions of Re-Cell Absorption through his body fluids within the Cursed Seal.

The stronger their adaptation to the Cursed Seal, the more complete their grasp of Re-Cell Absorption.

Those whose mastery of the technique was severely flawed would die and rot quickly. Those whose mastery was more complete could live longer, but they still needed a supply of active cells.

In layman's terms, they had to eat living things raw. The quality of animal cells was far inferior to that of ninja beasts, and the quality of ninja beast cells was generally inferior to that of humans. Among humans, the cells of ninjas and Samurai were of higher quality.

Of course, cells from their own kind were the strongest.

Under normal circumstances, eating animals was enough to survive, but the test subjects who had been affected by the Cursed Seal didn't mind eating people at all, and they felt nothing about hunting their own kind.

Orochimaru left after that riot, and the guards he left behind were quickly devoured by the increasingly powerful test subjects. For the sake of survival, the test subjects killed each other and then fled, hunting everywhere to survive.

Two test subjects stayed behind, spreading news of Orochimaru's Base to attract ninjas.

Until a little over a month ago, a group of Rain Hidden Village ninjas came and, in a battle with the two test subjects, accidentally released Jugo, who was in the form of a child, from the bottom Seal.

His bloodthirsty personality immediately ate the two of his own kind to replenish his size. The Rain Hidden Village ninjas released a strange toxin that put him into a brief coma. The ninjas cut away a lot of his flesh and, in his half-asleep, half-awake state, left with a large amount of experimental equipment and data.

After that, the two personalities alternated, and he lingered in the Base, unwilling to leave, until Lin Ke and his group came to his door.

I see.

Lin Ke roughly understood why those monsters ate people. The monsters on the island of the Southern Base probably weren't proper Cursed Seal test subjects and hadn't mastered Re-Cell Absorption well enough. They couldn't withstand the collapse of their bodies after the experiment and self-destructed early on.

The monsters in the Northern Base were more talented. After a round of elimination, most of them could barely survive through Re-Cell Absorption.

It made sense logically, but what exactly were those cell tissues?

The Original Body?

It feels a bit strong. It can use endless Natural Energy, but it seems to only be able to release it crudely, and the flaw of needing to eat living things to sustain life is too obvious.

Even Jugo, who had mastered the original Cursed Seal and complete Re-Cell Absorption, could only barely balance his regeneration and self-destruction. Once he fought, his body shrank significantly.

Although the ninja world engaged in human experimentation and many disgusting things, eating people was still a bit of a breach of the bottom line.

Uchiha Sasuke and Utakata both showed clear expressions of disgust.

After finishing his story, Jugo, who had been released from the Genjutsu, sat cross-legged and said calmly, "Are you going to kill me?"

Lin Ke hadn't figured out what to do with this guy. Without his Mystical Palm Technique, Jugo, who couldn't control his alter ego, was a bomb.

Perhaps I should take him back to Tsunade to see? Why does it feel like I'm a Traveling Frog, bringing something back every time I leave the village?

But what exactly did Tsunade go to do? Her inexplicable disappearance… At this rate, when will the new medicine be developed? And Orochimaru's experiment—

Wait, could it be that she had some breakthrough in Orochimaru's experimental data?

Lin Ke stood up calmly and said, "Maybe you're still useful."

"Pack up, we're going back to the Base. We have other things to do next."

...

A few days later, on a small island near the Land of Waves.

"Damn Uchiha!"

"Damn brat!"

"You—"

Saiken's huge body tried to struggle, and the Mangekyō Sharingan in its eyes trembled constantly, but it could only stand obediently in place and be cut open piece by piece by the Chakra Scalpel.

A voice full of anger echoed around through the Chakra.

Tailed Beasts don't have pain receptors, right?

Lin Ke was sealing the Tailed Beast Chakra chunk while thinking that, judging from its behavior just now, the Six Tails seemed particularly angry, its hatred overflowing.

It seemed unlikely that he could reach a reconciliation with Utakata like in the Fourth Shinobi World War.

But it didn't matter. A perfect Jinchuriki required talent. If one couldn't genuinely accept and treat the Tailed Beast as an equal, they couldn't become a perfect Jinchuriki. Chakra connected hearts, and one couldn't lie; they couldn't deceive themselves.

"No, the Six Tails is about to die."

Utakata stopped Uchiha Sasuke from continuing to use his Sharingan to extract the Six Tails.

Lin Ke touched the five large scrolls and shook his head regretfully.

It had only been cut a dozen times and it couldn't take it anymore. The Six Tails was too useless. Look at the Nine Tails, it didn't feel anything after giving away half of its Chakra at once, and it was fine even after Kinkaku and Ginkaku ate so much of its flesh. Why was the Six Tails so delicate?

Utakata explained, "The power of a Tailed Beast consists of two parts: the Tailed Beast's Chakra and the Tailed Beast's will. The reason why a Jinchuriki is affected and eroded when forcibly using the Tailed Beast's power is because of the Tailed Beast's will."

"Your ninja tool, for a Tailed Beast without a physical body, doesn't simply cut off Chakra, but also cuts off the Tailed Beast's will. For the Six Tails, it's like a part of its body is being cut off."

"Even the Tailed Beast's regenerative ability can't withstand endless cutting."

"The Six Tails' power is now extremely weakened. It will take at least a few years for it to recover next time."

He paused, a little surprised, and said, "I can still use the Six Tails' Chakra because it has almost fallen into a deep sleep. I should be able to share the Chakra with others."

A power bank? Lin Ke was about to try when Sasuke reached out.

Utakata was silent for a moment, then reached out and pressed his hand on Sasuke's arm, transferring the Six Tails' Chakra.

"It can be used," Sasuke nodded aloofly, and said, "There are currently no side effects. It's very suitable for Lin Ke to use."

Utakata wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he held back.

While transferring Chakra to Lin Ke, he said, "Without the cooperation of the Tailed Beast, you must be close to transfer Chakra."

"And the Six Tails is too weak, the Chakra that can be extracted is limited, there isn't that much."

This "not that much" referred to the standard of a Tailed Beast. The actual amount that could be extracted was still astronomical for humans.

"I don't seem to be able to transform into a Tailed Beast anymore," he said suddenly, adapting to the feeling of controlling the Tailed Beast Chakra alone.

Utakata released his hand, releasing a large amount of Tailed Beast Chakra, his body lit up with a blue-white light, but no Tailed Beast cloak appeared.

"It's not a lack of Chakra, it's the absence of the Tailed Beast's will, I understand..." he pondered.

[So much Chakra]

Lin Ke was trying to use the Tailed Beast Chakra in his body, feeling quite wonderful. It was clearly foreign, but it didn't feel much different from using his own. He formed a hand seal and released, Clone Jutsu—

"Huh?" The Chakra didn't disappear out of thin air, but continued to operate under his control.

"Bang!"

He looked in astonishment at the gray-white clone that had been created next to him, lying on the ground.

[Wait!]

Thoughts raced through his mind. He released Ninjutsu again, and the Clone Jutsu returned to normal, with the body separating.

After Lin Ke canceled the Ninjutsu, he tried releasing it by mixing his own Chakra into the Tailed Beast Chakra, and it was still a mutated Ninjutsu.

He repeatedly tested it many times. No matter how much of his own Chakra he mixed in, as long as there was some, the Ninjutsu would mutate. Once he used all Tailed Beast Chakra, it would become the original Ninjutsu.

[There's something wrong with my Chakra]

As everyone knew, Chakra was composed of spiritual energy and physical energy. Was there something wrong with his body, or his spirit? The answer seemed self-evident.

Lin Ke recalled his idealistic Ninjutsu learning process, thought a lot, and finally calmed down. Speculation was useless, he really had to practice.

[Being able to use the original Ninjutsu is a big boost for me. At least if I can use techniques like Shadow Clone Technique normally, my training will be faster]

[Experience will be gained, and the training of various Release Techniques and Forbidden Technique can be picked up again. I need to re-adapt to the original Ninjutsu that I've already learned, and...]

He was thinking of temporarily giving up chasing Orochimaru and going back to level up properly.

With so much Tailed Beast Chakra in hand, he could also use the Shadow Clone experience cheat. The original Ninjutsu and mutated Ninjutsu might have all sorts of wonderful interactions. There was too much room for development.

[No, I can't delay. With a pair of Mangekyō Sharingan, as long as Obito and Pain don't come to make trouble, I can solve Orochimaru cleanly. I can't give him a chance to continue developing. Jugo alone is difficult to deal with, and it will be even more troublesome if it spreads. I have to get that strange 'Original Body' in hand]

Lin Ke suppressed the restlessness in his heart. After making a decision, he said, "Utakata, lend me some more Chakra."

He wanted to use it to draw Hermit Purple and see everyone's location, and then solve Orochimaru in one fell swoop.
