Chapter 113: Perfect Body

After seeing off Kakashi,

Dan immediately entered the meditation room to meditate and adjust his body and mind to the best state, preparing for tomorrow's transplant surgery.

The next day,

The surgery was held as scheduled.

With the experience from the previous operation, the process of this surgery was greatly optimized and reduced to just a few hours.

Tsunade looked at Dan, who was lying on the operating table with his eyes closed, a flash of sharpness disappearing from the depths of her eyes.

She had just learned that Orochimaru had tried to cause trouble in Konoha, only to be taken down by Dan and Shisui. This made her feel quite sentimental.

The era of the Three Sannin had passed.

She also hadn't forgotten the first time she encountered Dan on Short Scroll Street, how this man had choked her unconscious with a naked chokehold, and then stole her necklace.

Perhaps now was a chance for revenge.

However, as soon as this thought crossed Tsunade's mind, she dismissed it.

Because,

At Dan's request, Fugaku and Shisui had also entered the operating room. They were standing by, wearing masks and green gowns, watching her.

If she dared to make any small moves, it would be hard for her to leave this operating room alive today.

Uchiha Dan was really cautious and didn't trust anyone.

Thinking of this,

Tsunade sighed in her heart, slowly raised a hand, and a light blue misty chakra immediately enveloped her palm.

Chakra scalpel.

Dan's body was as tough as iron.

His skin was ten times tougher than cowhide, and under his armor-like muscles, there was a thick layer of fascia, forming a three-layer defense inside and out.

A regular metal scalpel, no matter how hard you tried, could only leave a shallow mark on Dan's body.

Even with Tsunade's chakra scalpel, it took a lot of effort to barely make a cut on Dan's chest, which was as full as a hill.

Shizune quickly helped Tsunade wipe the sweat from her forehead.

Then,

Tsunade took the Hashirama cell plant from a nearby vessel and carefully transplanted it into Dan.

Just after the transplantation,

Dan on the operating table slowly opened his eyes.

Although he had been injected with anesthetic in advance, it didn't have much effect on him, so he had just been meditating with his eyes closed.

For this moment.

Soon,

Dan felt as if his chest was crawling with ants, biting at his flesh there, making him feel both pain and itchiness.

The power of Hashirama's cells was extremely domineering, rampaging in his body and spreading quickly.

Dan frowned.

The next second,

The crimson three-tomoe Sharingan appeared in his eyes.

Following the experience taught by Fugaku,

Dan used his Yin chakra to contend with the Yang chakra of Hashirama's cells. The two clashed fiercely within his body, devouring and merging with each other.

However,

Dan's eyes were not Mangekyou after all. Under the relentless pressure of Hashirama's cells, he inevitably fell into a disadvantage, and the situation gradually became unfavorable.

Reflected on his body, a sapling grew out of his chest, just like what had happened to Fugaku before.

Seeing this,

"Fugaku, quickly activate the Mangekyou!"

Fugaku immediately reminded him, his face full of concern for his brother-in-law.

If anything happened to Dan, not only would Mikoto

definitely not let Fugaku off the hook, but it would also be a bolt from the blue for the entire Uchiha clan.

Shisui also looked anxious, not understanding why Dan didn't use the power of the Mangekyou.

Dan gave the answer.

"Don't panic."

He calmly reassured Fugaku and Shisui, as if the person in danger was them, not him.

Besides the Sharingan, Dan had another more reliable reliance.

That was his body.

In addition to the Uchiha genes, Dan's body also carried the blood of the Joestar family.

Just like the Sharingan, the purple star-shaped birthmark on his left shoulder was proof of this lineage.

Not to mention, Dan had been training his body for twenty years, completing the "body modification", and thus possessed the strongest body in the history of the Joestar family.

During this process,

His cells were constantly dividing and growing, also filled with Yang chakra, which was not necessarily inferior to Hashirama's cells.

In the end,

Both Dan and Hashirama Senju were monsters that had transcended humans.

So,

Under the blessing of both Uchiha and Joestar bloodlines, the assimilation of Hashirama's cells into Dan's body inevitably failed.

As time passed,

The Hashirama cell plant completely integrated into Dan's body, and as the wound on his right chest healed, a palm-sized face of Hashirama formed there.

But it wasn't over yet.

Under the surprised gaze of everyone in the operating room,

The face of Hashirama on Dan's chest quickly became blurred, like a washed-off tattoo, and eventually disappeared completely.

This indicated,

His body had perfectly assimilated the power of Hashirama Senju.

Facing Fugaku and Shisui, who were surprised,

Dan got off the operating table and explained to them:

"I deliberately used only the power of the three-tomoe Sharingan, because I wanted to test whether my body could resist the erosion of Hashirama's cells."

It seems that the result is not bad.

Upon hearing this, the two of them understood.

Tsunade also nodded in agreement, coming to a conclusion: "The stronger the physique, the higher the success rate of Hashirama cell transplantation.

"That's a given."

The group exited the operating room, sharing the good news with the Uchiha clan members waiting outside.

Upon hearing this, the clan members couldn't help but be overjoyed and extremely excited.

Although the day before, Fugaku had successfully transplanted Hashirama's cells using the power of the Mangekyou.

But the Mangekyou, for most Uchihas, was still too luxurious, something they could never touch in their lifetime.

And now,

Dan, using his own body for the experiment, had successfully completed the transplantation at the power level of the three-tomoe Sharingan, obtaining the power of the First Hokage.

For the Uchiha clan, this was undoubtedly a shot in the arm.

"Dan risked a great deal to show us the path to becoming stronger. We must not let him down."

"Let's go, to the gym!"

The clan members, as if injected with chicken blood, fervently bowed to Dan, then couldn't wait to rush to the body modification department.

On this matter,

Dan had lied to people, but not completely.

Compared to him, although the Uchihas don't have Joestar blood, strengthening their bodies through exercise is definitely useful for future transplantation of Hashirama's cells.

Next,

Like Fugaku, Dan also went to the training field to adapt to his newly acquired abilities.

In his body now, he had the bloodlines of the Joestar, Uchiha, and Senju clans. The most direct feeling was that this body was more vibrant.

Before, Dan had turned his body into a human weapon through exercise.

His physical body was strong, but it had a clear shortcoming, that was, it had poor self-healing ability. Once injured, it would be troublesome.

So Dan had always cherished his body, even going into hiding for over twenty years, not fighting with others.

In his own words—

Before completing the body modification, this body cannot be damaged in any way.

Now, this only shortcoming was also made up for with the successful transplantation of Hashirama's cells.

Dan finally had a perfect body.

Of course, there was also Wood Release.

With a clap of his hands,

Under the gaze of Tsunade, Fugaku, and Shisui, Dan went straight for the big one.

At this moment,

He turned his own chakra into the source of life, injecting it into the earth beneath his feet, awakening the plant seeds that were sleeping in the soil.

With a rumble,

Accompanied by the violent shaking of the ground, a large number of trees broke through the soil and grew at an astonishing speed.

In just a few seconds,

A lush forest was formed in the training field.

Tsunade and the others found themselves in the forest, and all the trees around them were dancing wildly. They were all controlled by Dan, launching the most violent attack on any enemy entering the forest.

This was the jutsu that made Hashirama Senju famous in the shinobi world—

Wood Release: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees.

Dan was originally a ninjutsu insulator.

After transplanting Hashirama's cells and inheriting Wood Release, he could finally use ninjutsu, and it was Wood Release, a ninjutsu that could carry out large-scale attacks.

This also made up for his long-standing weakness of relatively insufficient group attack ability.

And so far,

Among all those who transplanted Hashirama's cells, only Madara and Dan were able to successfully use such a jutsu as Advent of a World of Flowering Trees.

Because its requirement for

chakra quantity was simply too high.

However,

While the power of Wood Release was formidable,

Dan didn't plan to make Wood Release, especially high-level Wood Release techniques, his main method of combat in the future.

Apart from his own combat habits, it was actually still a matter of chakra quantity.

You see,

Both Madara and Hashirama were reincarnations of Indra and Asura respectively.

In terms of chakra quantity, among the tens of thousands of shinobi in the entire shinobi world, including the nine Tailed Beasts, probably only the Nine-Tails could be compared with the two of them.

Dan wasn't there yet.

His chakra quantity had indeed reached the level of a Tailed Beast, but there was a huge gap between Tailed Beasts.

But there was no need to be discouraged.

Dan had already found the path he would take next.

From now on, what he needed to do was to further stimulate the potential of his own body and develop the abilities of the three bloodlines in his body to their limits.

By then,

He might be able to transform into a true... God of Muscles.

To become an existence that surpasses Hashirama Senju and Uchiha Madara.

Collecting his thoughts,

Dan's gaze turned to Tsunade.

Her abilities and knowledge as a medical expert, although not a decisive factor in the transplantation process, played a significant role in ensuring its success.

As per the agreement, the Uchiha clan would pay Tsunade a reward of several million ryo. Dan generously footed the bill.

After all, he had just swindled a billion from the Third Hokage.

A few million was just a drop in the bucket.

"Besides that, is there anything else you want?"

Dan looked at Tsunade, asking.

He didn't really need Tsunade now, and whether she wanted to continue cooperating or not, he didn't really care if she stayed or left.

Shisui, standing by, hesitated for a moment, then suggested, "Isn't there still one Hashirama cell left? Why not give it to Lady Tsunade? I'm sure she can adapt to this power too."

Dan turned to look at Shisui.

This guy, when did he start considering the interests of the clan, even actively helping the Uchiha to win over Tsunade.

However,

Tsunade shook her head, refusing.

Thanks to Longbeiliu for the reward, thank you!
