Experiment

"Honest, your house is pretty big."

After looking around the room where Ruri was, Baishi sat down without any restriction.

"Big, but every day it gets a little deserted."

"That's true. By the way, aren't your parents home? Shouldn't I say hello?"

Ruri shook his head and said, "No. The two of them don't stay in the village all year. As they don't have the talent to be ninja, they can only run a small business and send a little money back every month."

Shiraishi's eyelids twitched.

Small business?

He wanted to ask if Ruri had any business misunderstandings.

"By the way, what are you doing coming to me? Even though I have a private boot camp at home, it's very. Ostentatious and doesn't fit your mysticism."

Yesterday, Baishi told her that there are important things to deal with and that I need to go to her.

"I want to experiment with you. Are there any empty houses hidden and strong?"

Experiment? Ruri frowned, not quite understanding Baishi's intention.

The research funds and living expenses she normally gave him simply increased. Upon hearing what he said, she wanted Baishi to reciprocate.

"Because I think the move will be a little big and dangerous, my lab is too small."

Hearing Baishi's explanation, Ruri didn't insist until the end and led Baishi down a hallway to an empty house.

Then a wooden plank of the house was opened and there was a secret passage that led to the basement.

Both sides are energized along the way and lights are on.

At the bottom of the passage, there is an underground space of about fifty square meters and the ground is protected by hard slates, which can block the impact of ninjutsu.

"Can it work here? If that's not enough, there's a bigger one next door that's twice the size of this one."

"Enough, better than I thought."

Baishi is very pleased with the enclosed space here, even exceeding his expectations.

"I'll go upstairs first, so call me if you have anything to do."

Ruri went up alone.

Shiraishi took the scroll from the seal, spread it out on the ground sealed.

Along with the production of white smoke, some research equipment appeared.

However, these survey instruments are relatively small in size and can, mounted on coils.

Speaking of which, Ruri taught him this type of ninjutsu, which uses scrolls to seal things so they can be. Carried easily.

Arrange all kinds of research equipment in an organized way here, and Shiraishi started this experiment.

And this experiment is also different from ordinary, with great danger.

If the experiment is successful, the rewards will be enormous.

Around night, when the sun went down, Shiraishi never left the cellar again.

The colored enamel in my room finished the chakra refinement in the afternoon and. I asked the maid to prepare dinner. Seeing that Shiraishi was not gone, she ate alone.

After eating, Shiraishi still hasn't left the basement.

Ruri still ignored him.

Until midnight, when Ruri was a good dream, the earth suddenly shuddered.

Ruri's body also shuddered slightly. She suddenly got up off the ground and surveyed her surroundings.

earthquake?

Wrong. Ruri instantly denied it.

The source of the earthquake is very close to me, and the way the vibration is generated must be related to the explosion of some equipment.

Although it's not obvious, I feel it.

Thinking of something, Ruri didn't have time to put on her coat, opened the wooden door, and walked quickly towards the bedroom across the hall.

Her destination is the basement of this room.

When Ruri came down, what she saw was a mess in the basement, with a hole in the middle.

Even the hard ground that she could protect against the impact of ninjutsu was ripped away, and Ruri's eyes took on a strange color.

Then I saw Shiraishi, who had a gray face on his side, and looked scared by the explosion in front of him.

In the explosion pit, there was a very strong chakra... it seemed to be a little different. In short, a strong aura remained there, giving Ruri a feeling of pressure,

Furthermore, there were only a few research instruments that were not destroyed.

"How did you come?"

Shiraishi woke up and asked a silly question.

Ruri didn't mind the question and wasn't mad at Shiraishi for blowing up her basement.

What she worries about is the experiment Shiraishi is doing to blast the ground that can resist ninjutsu.

"What experience are you having?"

"Pull the natural energy..."

Shiraishi answered honestly, not hiding.

"Natural energy?"

Liuli looked at Baishi in surprise.

"Well, this is the hypothesis and procedure of the experiment, but now I can also write the conclusion."

Shiraishi took his notebook out of his ninja bag.

Ruri took it and opened it.

Though he could recognize every word, there were many technical terms she couldn't understand.

"The experiment failed?"

Seeing an explosion here, Ruri thought that Shiraishi's experiment had failed.

Well, you can say you failed or you can say you succeeded. I have successfully channeled the natural energy and merged it with the common chakra, but I don't know what proportion of pairing between them and other things is needed to promote the fusion. that caused this accident, was after the natural energy merged with the chakra, it got out of control. It was even more violent than I expected... "

Shiraishi picked up the tip of a damaged research instrument and thought of something.

Ruri nodded.

Ordinary chakras don't have this level of destructive power.

"What do you need next?"

For the first time, Ruri, who was not very interested in Shiraishi's research, had the idea to support him.

"Money, a lot of money! And a space for more solidity!"

Shiraishi was not polite.

For him, Ruri gives away the resources and the location is responsible for the research and the final result of the research is shared by both.

"Live here?"

Baishi was a little surprised by Ruri's sudden proposal.

"Yes, running is very complicated. You can only come here on Sunday. If you spend too little time studying natural energy, the results will be slow."

"Isn't that suspicious?"

Shiraishi is concerned about this.

"Not everyone in my house is Uchiha. I just need to hire him to work at my house with a formal contract. Also, who would focus on a student at a ninja school? Do you want to deal with this trivial matter? necessary to investigate, it is the job of our Uchiha Security Force. "

Shiraishi looked reasonable.

After all, experiments with natural energy really cannot be studied in your home.

Your previous experiments were very dangerous.

Everything involved in this is top secret and must be kept secret.

If Ruri uses a work contract to allow me to work from his house, it's a good way to cover people's eyes.

The Anbu of the Hokage will have no leisure time to observe a student at the ninja school, and Shiraishi has shown no hostility towards the village.

He is the authentic successor to Fire Will.

Even if something goes wrong, it's the job of the security team, and Ruri is a genius of the Uchiha clan and has a track record.

The most important thing is that I'm poor.

According to Konoha, there is no child protection law. When Shiraishi was six years old, he was expelled from the orphanage to live alone. Younger children earn money for life and work... It's reasonable!

Ruri hires himself with a work contract, which also helps between friends.

After all, he and Ruri are almost indistinguishable from each other. In many people's eyes, he and Ruri are good friends.

It's normal for friends to help each other.

That way he has enough time to conduct natural energy experiments and enough secrecy.

"Speaking of which, how did you extract natural energy?"

Liuli asked the question that interested him most.

The natural energy information she gave Shiraishi earlier was just elemental natural energy information.

Ruri is very curious to know how Shiraishi extracts natural energy.

"Haven't you read the previous notes? It's very simple to say. I don't know how the first Hokage guided the natural energy. I guided the natural energy from the root of the chakra, using the root of the chakra as bait to capture the natural energy. "

"..."

"Speaking of the specific source of the chakras, it is related to our normal state of diet. Physical strength is inseparable from the intake of food, carbohydrates, proteins, fats, and glycidic acid. Mental energy is not only related to the soul. It is also related to the soul. It can also influence a person's mental state, ie the state. The physical and mental powers derive from them and produce similar chemical reactions with the human body. Complicated things. In the self-processing system of the human body, there are differences in physical fitness between different people, which leads to, uh, do you understand?"

"..."
