Chapter 144

【Jiraiya: So, Second Hokage-dono, Orochimaru… you two both think highly of her, and believe what she said wasn't just wild boasting?】

【Tobirama Senju: I don't think there's a problem with my eye for people. I'm very familiar with that kind of look in her eyes. I believe she must have truly done some very special research, which is why she dared to speak to Big Brother like that.】

【Hashirama Senju: …If it were me, I definitely wouldn't agree to this young miss's research — mixing all sorts of Kekkei Genkai together and experimenting on people — it sounds far too evil. But the other me, I really can't say…】

【Shikamaru Nara: Nara Natsuki… why have I never heard this person's name in the clan's history? If she really had this kind of ability, it's impossible I wouldn't have heard of her.】

【Nara Shikaku: Speaking of which, I do seem to have some impression — it seems there really was such a person… but the ending wasn't very pleasant. Without good experimental material, she finally used the experiments on herself, developed all sorts of strange illnesses, and passed away very early…】

【Ino Yamanaka: Are all these people who like doing weird experiments this twisted? Unable to find suitable experimental material, they actually applied their research to themselves…】

……

the Akatsuki,

Nagato looked at Nara Natsuki in the black screen, and a trace of regret appeared in his eyes.

It's a pity they weren't in the same era.

If Nara Natsuki were in the same era as himself,

no matter what, he would have snatched her over.

Thinking of the Akatsuki's current situation,

Nagato felt a headache coming on.

These defecting ninja who joined were all problem children with very big problems,

basically no normal people.

Originally, Orochimaru had fit the requirements in his heart quite well,

he thought that although Orochimaru's strength wasn't much,

serving as a researcher behind the scenes,

helping him complete some research would be quite good.

But ever since Orochimaru lost to Itachi Uchiha,

Tenten has been staring at Itachi Uchiha's Sharingan,

with no other mind to research anything else,

which made Nagato feel extremely helpless!!!

He did have countless White Zetsu soldiers in his hands,

but these White Zetsu soldiers weren't strong overall,

they just had strong vitality and were suitable for experiments.

But what he lacked most was precisely the talent to complete research,

such talent wasn't plentiful in the entire shinobi world.

Even if he used force to suppress all opposing voices in the shinobi world and established a peaceful realm,

the post-war world would still need many talented people to help him rule this world.

He couldn't possibly do everything personally,

and such talent,

naturally was best cultivated by his own hands!!

……

"I can agree to give you my blood."

"And I can cooperate with you to complete your research."

"But you need to agree to one condition of mine."

"I want to personally go and see the research you've done — I wonder if you're willing?"

Hashirama Senju also put forward his own request.

Nara Natsuki didn't even think, nodding and agreeing to him right away.

"No problem!! As long as you're willing to lend me your blood for research."

"As for my research results, as long as you want them, you can take them anytime — it doesn't matter!!"

An excited expression appeared on her face.

For her,

nothing was more important than Hashirama Senju's blood cells.

All the research results in her laboratory combined couldn't compare to the importance of Hashirama Senju right before her eyes!!!

Watching his daughter and Hashirama Senju disappear before his eyes,

Nara Soki winced and covered his own forehead with a headache,

and sighed.

Although the result was the same —

his daughter Nara Natsuki had gotten together with Hashirama Senju —

why did this feel so strange?

But from the looks of it, the two seemed to have some common topics,

then this would be easy to handle!!

Even if she couldn't become Hashirama Senju's wife,

if his daughter became good friends with Hashirama Senju,

Nara Soki could accept that too.

After all, he wasn't like Hyuga Tensou,

he only had this one daughter, Nara Natsuki,

Moreover,

he also did not want his own daughter to become a sacrifice of political deals,

If Nara Natsuki could develop feelings with Hashirama Senju, that would naturally be excellent.

If she could not develop the love between a man and a woman,

for Nara Saki,

he could also accept this point.

……

After arriving at Nara Natsuki's laboratory,

Hashirama Senju saw the scene before him,

and could not help but twitch at the corner of his eye.

Although he had long made some estimates about the girl's madness,

when he truly saw these experimental results before him,

he still felt his scalp tingle.

Pigs with human faces, birds with eighteen legs, bizarre chimeras pieced together from tiger heads and chicken bodies……

Even a puppy with a Sharingan……

Nara Natsuki was even more insanely deranged than he had imagined.

An ordinary person would probably take one look at her these research results,

and immediately faint!!!

Especially upon seeing this dog transplanted with a Sharingan, he fell silent.

He did not know what Uchiha Madara would feel if he saw this dog?

But he knew this absolutely could not be allowed to be seen by Uchiha Madara,

otherwise the entire Uchiha clan would probably have to fight Nara Natsuki to the death.

"Where did you get this Sharingan of yours?"

Hashirama Senju asked curiously.

The Uchiha clan valued their honor as supremely important,

and it was basically impossible for them to let their clan's Sharingan fall into outside hands.

And when Nara Natsuki saw this,

she suddenly realized with a start.

The Senju clan and the Uchiha clan were now already allies,
