Chapter – 432 A Failure?

Shisui doesn't seem to be able to suppress the Phagocytosis caused by Hashirama Cells in his body, as a result, unconquerable trees that are a product of Hashirama Cells consuming Shisui's vitality are continuously rushing out of Shisui's body.

But this thing changed when Kuroto started transferring his Chakra to Shisui.

Hashirama Cells are still as uncontrollable as before, but now they are consuming Kuroto's Chakra for their growth, of course, Shisui has not yet regained control over himself, and it doesn't seem likely that he will be able to, but Kuroto did not give up.

The only reason is that the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan in Shisui's eye sockets is still active and spinning, which means Shisui is still insisting, he is fighting and trying to regain control over himself, and if Shisui has not given up, then how can Kuroto give up?

So obviously, Kuroto calmed himself, and while continuing to transfer his Chakra to Shisui, he thought of countermeasures, countermeasures that would help Shisui.

The Hashirama Cells are acting like gluttony, as they are devouring all the given Chakra at an extremely fast speed, even the neutral Chakra of Ryuumyaku is being consumed at an extraordinary speed.

This is still under the condition that Ryuumyaku Chakra is extremely pure and dense, as well as has a satiating effect on the hunger of unstable Hashirama Cells. If it was something other than a Bijuu type Chakra, I am afraid it would have been completely swallowed along with Shisui's body.

'What is the cause of all this? What's preventing Shisui from being able to take control of Hashirama Cells?' Kuroto thought as he observed the spinning Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan in Shisui's eye sockets.

'Are these eyes responsible?' was a momentary thought, but then Kuroto shook his head because he could perceive the Yin Chakra in the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan is trying to counter the Yang Chakra in Hashirama Cells.

'No, wait! The eyes are countering Yang Chakra in Hashirama Cells, countering will consume both spiritual energy, and physical energy in Shisui, and in the end, Shisui will perish… so instead of countering; Shisui will have to prompt the eyes to actively merge with the Yang Chakra!'

After all, the Yang Chakra may have been provided by Hashirama Cells, but Hashirama Cells are ultimately using Shisui's vitality to grow, and with constant fighting of Yin and Yang Chakra both physical energy and spiritual energy in Shisui is being consumed, as a result, it is natural that he will perish.

Realizing the main problem that is hindering Shisui, Kuroto telepathically spoke to Shisui, "Shisui, your Yin Chakra is conflicting with Yang Chakra in Hashirama Cells, instead of conflicting proceed for active fusion. Consumption will be high and both will get damaged but this is the only way."

There was no response from Shisui whose consciousness already seemed to have blurred.

Kuroto is also not sure whether Shisui had heard his words, but Kuroto can only choose to trust Shisui, after all, Shisui is not known as the most genius shinobi of the Uchiha Clan for nothing.

Boom Boom Boom

There was still no decline in the growing speed of trees, if not for the fact that it was Kuroto's Chakra being consumed as the fuel for the trees instead of Shisui's, Shisui might have already perished by now.

The growing trees have already messed up the entire operating room, it is only because the Truth-Seeking Orbs are constantly shedding and destroying the trees that the trees have stopped breaking out to the surface else they might have caused a commotion in the Forest of Death.

The same thing continued and soon 5 minutes passed.

And in these past 5 minutes, Kuroto continued to supply Yin and Neutral Chakra to Shisui and also maintained the Truth-Seeking Orbs.

'I don't think that I can keep this up for too long.' Thought Kuroto, as he has already noticed that the Hashirama Cells inside Shisui's body is trying to devour Kuroto's hand too.

If his own Chakra Overdraft is too severe, he may not be able to get rid of the erosion of Hashirama Cells and will fall into the same passive situation as Shisui's.

'Five more minutes… if Shisui is unable to take control of Hashirama Cells within these 5 minutes, then he will die.' This was Kuroto's conclusion.

Time passed second by second, and minute by minute, these 5 minutes may as well have been the longest 5 minutes of his life, but there was still no change in Shisui. By the time 5 minutes were completely over, Kuroto had a disappointed expression and a tinge of sadness.

By now Shisui's entire body had turned white like that of a White Zetsu clone, and his breathing had also stopped, looking at this state, Kuroto can't help but think, 'Failed huh?'

But just as Kuroto was about to give up after determining that the operation was a failure and stop the supply of Chakra, the scene started to reverse, it was as if a reversal in time, the whites that had taken over Shisui's entire body started to reverse in the same way that they spread and soon completely disappeared, at the same time the trees that were wildly growing out of Shisui's body also withered away and turned into ashes.

Then the bulge in Shisui's veins and arteries also subsided as a result the state of his body soon returned to normal.

"Huh?" Kuroto was obviously taken aback, these changes illustrate that Shisui succeeded and conquered the Hashirama Cells.

Suppressing the surprise in his heart, Kuroto hurriedly observed the reading on various monitors.

"Blood Pressure is returning to normal range;

Heartbeat is also returning to normal;

Body Temperature has also started to return to normal;

Cell activity is also decreasing, but I suspect that there will be an overall increase in Shisui's Cell Activity due to the fusion of Hashirama Cells.

Water Levels need to be replenished as the consumption of water was too much during the operation, only about 20% of water is present in his body…it needs to be replenished…"

The readings displayed in all the monitors prove that Shisui has finally succeeded, but Kuroto still did not stop the infusion of Chakra, after all, Shisui's current Chakra Levels are too low, so low that Shisui doesn't even have the energy to be able to murmur anything, and even the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan was deactivated on their own.

Anyway, the Truth-Seeking Orbs were deactivated and vanished and Kuroto started to observe the changes in Shisui's body all while keeping a steady supply of Chakra.

A while later, when enough Chakra was replenished, Shisui finally regained consciousness and muttered weakly, "Kuroto-san, did I… did I… succ… eed?"

Kuroto smiled slightly, and nodded, "Yes, you did manage to make it through, and conquered Hashirama Cells."

Shisui was tired, but he had a relieved smile, "If it wasn't… for you… to give me Chakra, I wouldn't have been able to persist."

"No, it was my mistake." After shaking his head, Kuroto said, "I should have made the part about fusion clearer to you."

But Shisui shook his head, and denied, "That's not the case… the thing is, in the starting, I was going for active fusion too, but that wasn't working as my Yin Chakra and the Yang Chakra from the implanted cells were at constant war, trying to overpower and dominate each other but not willing to work together for active fusion, as a result, my own Chakra started to deplete but the Yang Chakra in Shodaime Sama's cells continued to extract vitality from me and did not give up, ultimately I was overwhelmed as my spiritual energy was unable to keep up because of the consumption, as well as bearing otherworldly pain.

During this process, I came to understand that only when my entire Chakra is depleted, and when the Shodaime sama's cells have also depleted their energy, which means when both of us are at our weakest point; only then will the fusion take place… that's why the consumption was necessary and I did not resist the consumption.

But my Chakra alone was not enough to completely consume the Yang Chakra, so it only became possible because you were giving me Chakra."

"Is that so?" Kuroto muttered in a surprised tone, 'Is the Yin-Yang fusion so difficult? Now that I think about it, this does make sense, after all, if Yin-Yang fusion was so easy, then Black Zetsu wouldn't have struggled for eons.'

Shisui nodded, and said, "Yes, in fact, there are certain changes in these eyes too…"

Shisui's words broke Kuroto out of his thoughts, and he asked eagerly, "What changes?"

Shisui said, "The pattern of the Eyes seems to have started to change a little and Visual Prowess is also increasing, so I am not exactly sure, perhaps you can judge the changes better than I can."

Kuroto nodded, "Alright, show me."

Shisui nodded, and using the Chakra given to him by Kuroto, he activated Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.

Kuroto focused on these eyes and noticed that although very subtle, there are indeed some changes in the pattern.

The original pattern has started to distort, although the distortions are not very obvious, Kuroto with the insight of his Tenseigan can see that there are indeed some distortions, at the same time, a ripple-like pattern has started to emerge.

As Kuroto continued to transfer his Chakra, the ripple-like pattern became more and more obvious, the distortions of the previous pattern increased nanometer by nanometer, and the visibility of the ripple pattern increased nanometer by nanometer, 'Are they … are they going to evolve into the Rinnegan?' was Kuroto's thought after observing these changes.

And with this thought, he increased the chakra transfer hoping for the Rinnegan to awaken.

Prompted by Kuroto's Chakra the ripple pattern and the previous pattern was almost indistinguishable by now but for some reason, the changes started to slow down, and a few seconds later they became extremely slow as if something is hindering them to be able to break through the threshold.

"A failure?" muttered Kuroto with a bit of disappointment, but he did not let this affect him much, after all, Kuroto can judge that these eyes have gotten a step closer to the Rinnegan.
