Physical Examination

"What a big guy."

"Can that even be considered human?"

"I can't imagine how big he must be…"

Jugo listened to the Konoha villagers' discussions on the street, watching their strange gazes sweep over parts of his body. He hunched his back a little awkwardly, trying to make himself less conspicuous.

"What an annoying bunch," Karin said, pushing up her glasses with a helpless expression.

Tezuru next to her sighed and said nothing. After all, they were living under someone else's roof, and it wasn't clear whether they were prisoners or something else. They were still hoping for help with their 'illness'.

Just let them stare a few times.

"Bubble~"

Utakata sat on the roof, blowing bubbles leisurely. He knew he would attract attention when he came in. As soon as Lin Ke left, he used the Body Flicker Technique to get to the roof to watch the show.

He had to say, the Konoha villagers were quite accepting. A considerable number of people weren't afraid of a freak as tall as a house.

Maybe it's also because Jugo's main personality is too harmless?

"Swish~" Hearing the sound of movement, he turned his head and saw a woman in a White Coat.

"I'm Shizune, a Jonin from the Medical Team." The woman nodded to him and said, "You must be Utakata."

"That's me," Utakata said, standing up. "Is something wrong with Lin Ke?"

"He went to pick up Sasuke and asked me to take Jugo, Karin, and Tezuru for a physical examination," Shizune said seriously.

"Whoosh~"

Utakata whistled. The three people in the open space below looked up. "Let's go."

The four followed Shizune to a spacious arena, the same place where Kimimaro almost exploded and was dealt with urgently. It was originally a Root experimental Base, but the facilities and extra decorations inside were almost completely dismantled after that accident, and several walls were torn down.

At the time, they weren't in a hurry to move Kimimaro, so they brought in a lot of medical equipment and conducted many experiments. Later, after the experimental subjects were transferred, Root completely disappeared, and no one wanted the experimental Base. The Medical Team simply accepted it half-heartedly.

Because Root's location was too remote, medical ninjas only came here at the beginning to do experiments in the spacious environment. Later, Tsunade returned, and Lin Ke gradually brought back a lot of things that could be researched. The medical ninjas were almost all doing research around Tsunade and Shizune in the Medical Team building, so no one had been here for a long time.

The original two-story ceiling had been removed, and the height of the arena was nearly eight meters. Jugo, who had to bend over to enter the building, breathed a sigh of relief.

Inside, several medical ninjas and nurses who usually assisted Shizune were busy adjusting various equipment.

Karin looked around worriedly. It was indeed a bit remote here, and she was terrified by Orochimaru's experiments.

Utakata stood quietly beside her, his posture quite elegant. The loose Yukata revealed a bit of fair collarbone, and he gave her a comforting look with a calm expression.

After the Six Tails fell asleep, he had completely mastered the use of Tailed Beast Chakra. After creating a large amount of Tailed Beast Chakra, he added it all to his body. In addition to emitting a blue-white light for illumination, he didn't need to compete for Chakra with the Tailed Beast, nor did he have to worry about being eroded by the Tailed Beast Chakra. His strength could almost be said to have increased several times.

Except for Sasuke, who had activated the Mangekyō Sharingan, he didn't think he had too much to fear from anyone.

That eye is too OP.

"Let's start the physical examination with you first, big guy."

Shizune looked at Jugo, her calm face revealing a bit of interested expression. He was able to break through the growth limit of the human body and was also Orochimaru's experimental subject.

Maybe he can solve the problem with Kimimaro and help Lady Tsunade.

"Oh," Jugo replied dully and walked forward honestly.

First, there were tests of various physical qualities, the most direct strength and speed, and further tests of lung capacity, heartbeat, pulse, blood pressure, body structure, internal organ shape, Chakra extraction, release, and the use of basic Ninjutsu, etc.

Finally, it ended with DNA backup and blood sampling.

No harm was done throughout the process. Jugo, Karin, and Tezuru were all familiar with this process—

It was exactly the same as when they were being studied in Orochimaru's Base, even the physical examination process was the same.

Do the ninjas in Konoha like to do this kind of thing?

Karin had a strange thought in her head and very consciously went over to accept the full set of experiments. Tezuru followed behind, his body still trembling unconsciously even after escaping for so long.

After the blood draw, she sat in the corner with a candy in her mouth, waiting for the results. Suddenly, she stood up and looked at the door with a smile.

"Tap~"

"Sasuke, you're here." Karin pounced, grabbing Sasuke's arm, and said, "Do you want some candy?" She offered another piece like a treasure.

She regretted it as soon as she said it. Her Sasuke didn't like sweets, ahhhhh!

She was a little frantic inside, feeling bad about her wrong decision, when the candy she offered was taken.

"Then I won't be polite." Lin Ke unwrapped the candy and threw it into his mouth, glancing at her with a smile, and asked, "How were the physical exam results?"

Karin looked at him gratefully.

See, he ate her candy, and she still has to thank us.

Uchiha Sasuke wasn't wearing his Forehead Protector. He had left it at home when he left Konoha Village, planning never to return, but he didn't expect to be back so soon.

He didn't really care about girls having some physical contact or enthusiastic attitudes towards him. Ino and Sakura were usually pretty boundaryless.

Despite his cold exterior, he was actually very soft inside, and even more peaceful after resolving his hatred.

"Like Kimimaro, he can't extract Chakra normally..." Shizune had just started speaking when Jugo couldn't help but interrupt.

"Wait." He looked a little nervous. "Kimimaro, you mentioned that name, right?"

Lin Ke wasn't too surprised, he just said, "Yes, he's in the laboratory in the Medical Team building. I'll bring him to see you later."

He turned to explain to Shizune, "He and Kimimaro are friends."

Jugo looked delighted, stood up from the ground, and then sat back down. He had thought Kimimaro had died long ago, but he didn't expect such a pleasant surprise coming to Konoha.

Seeing that no one interrupted, Shizune explained the general physical condition of the three people.

In summary, Jugo was similar to Kimimaro, but his adaptation to Natural Energy was much higher, so he used Natural Energy to build a huge body that didn't conform to normal biological structures at all to cope with the erosion of Natural Energy.

The internal cells were constantly being killed and regenerated, and the cells constantly stimulated by Natural Energy had a stronger ability to attract Natural Energy, forming a vicious cycle. The cells died faster and faster, the power became stronger and stronger, and the regeneration speed would eventually not keep up. The body could only grow larger and larger to ensure that it would not die quickly.

After reaching a certain level, the fragile balance would be broken, and everything should be directly burned to ashes.

He might die earlier than Kimimaro in the future.

The stronger he was, the faster he died.

The bodies of the other two showed some traces of being eroded by Natural Energy.

The traces on Karin's body were very slight. Her huge Chakra was very effective in suppressing Natural Energy, and the part of her body that was rebuilt by Jugo was relatively small. Currently, her physical condition was very normal, and there were no problems with Chakra extraction.

Tezuru was more troublesome. He already had some of Kimimaro's symptoms. Chakra extraction was impaired, and Chakra was obviously dissipating abnormally when using Ninjutsu.

However, there were no Original Body cells in his body. He only showed some symptoms of the Cursed Seal indirectly through the body tissue provided by Jugo. The speed of absorbing Natural Energy was very slow. It was estimated that he would not be able to extract Chakra normally for at least a few years.

During this process, his physical fitness and regeneration ability would continue to improve. Over time, his body cells might become more and more compatible with Natural Energy, just like Jugo, and eventually die.

[This girl might be able to practice Sage Mode]

Shizune said, glancing at Karin, who was comforting Jugo and Tezuru. She possessed powerful Chakra, and her body could spontaneously attract a small amount of Natural Energy. She was simply a congenital Sage Mode holy body.

Jugo's body tissue was much milder than the Original Body cells. Not only was the speed of absorbing Natural Energy much slower, but the destructive power was not as strong. If Tsunade had obtained Jugo's cells instead of the Original Body cells, she should have successfully cultivated and returned by now.

"Currently, we can only rely on Sealing Jutsu or your techniques to prolong their lives." She gave the final summary.

[Perhaps we can just kill them and then reincarnate them]

A strange thought flashed through Lin Ke's mind, and then he quickly extinguished it. The way to treat pain is to directly kill the patient, right? Solve the problem from the root.

Too hellish.

It's better not to make it so strange. Even if it will be abused, we can't rely on killing living people to solve everything.

After helping Shizune settle the three patients, he took Sasuke and Utakata to find Senju Tobirama and leave the village together.

The physical examination of the reincarnated body had been quietly completed just now. Everything was normal with the reincarnated body. Even the Second Hokage's perception ability didn't detect any problems with the soul and body. Shizune's medical skills also didn't find any abnormalities in the body.

Then there was no need to hesitate.

Go to the Land of Waves Base to retest the output of the Underworld Swamp Black Mud, first reincarnate other people to test and observe to see if there are any other hidden dangers, and finally reincarnate Uchiha Fugaku and his wife.

It was not easy to do these things in Konoha. There were too many reconnaissance techniques. If a Hyuga passed by and took a look, it would be easy to expose.

After discussing it, they decided to conduct the experiment at the Base in the Land of Waves.

As for the Orochimaru Base, after communicating with the Third Hokage, they planned to wait for Jiraiya, one of the Three Ninja, to return in a few days, and send him with a team of elite Jonin to communicate with the Hidden Stone Village and strive to destroy the Orochimaru Base together, or catch Orochimaru.

As far as Lin Ke knew, the preliminary candidates were Kakashi and Might Guy, paired with Jiraiya, so no matter how Orochimaru changed, there shouldn't be any major problems.

Even if they couldn't win, running away would be a piece of cake.
