Naruto: Can't learn ninjutsu? I'll just practice immortality!

"Teacher Orochimaru, thanks to you this time." Asakawa Naoki thanked sincerely.

The function of White Zetsu cells is similar to the embryonic stem cells of the Celestial Empire in the previous life. As long as the White Zetsu cells are degenerated, they can be cultured into various tissue cells by directional induction.

In this process, Orochimaru added a few monkey genes to directional induce the White Zetsu cells to differentiate into the monkey's body tissue.

After removing part of the monkey's body tissue, the body tissue cultivated with White Zetsu cells was connected to it, forming the experimental group of monkeys with white limbs.

If the monkeys were replaced with humans, then any organ that was damaged or diseased, from a finger or an ear to an arm or a thigh, or even the internal organs, could be solved by White Zetsu cells.

If cells similar to White Zetsu cells could be found in the previous life, it would definitely be one of the strongest discoveries in the history of biology, and the Nobel Prize in Biology could be won.

Because that means that most human diseases can be solved by replacing organs.

Liver cancer? Replace the liver!

Lung cancer? Replace the lungs!

In short, replace whatever is broken!

In the past, there were indeed organ transplants, but most of them had a certain degree of rejection, and the success rate was not high.

However, White Zetsu cells are naturally characterized by low rejection, and they are easy to degenerate and induce differentiation, making them perfect cells.

In the ninja world, the role of White Zetsu cells is even greater.

Because of the high attack and low defense characteristics of ninjas, fighting between ninjas can easily result in missing arms and legs.

Once the arms or legs are seriously injured and cannot be recovered, the ninjas who have no mobility or cannot make hand seals are basically useless.

After all, not everyone can be as powerful as Konoha's Genin - Hoshimaru Kosuke.

Therefore, once a war breaks out in the ninja world, the loss of ninjas is quite large.

Many ninjas may have died after going to the battlefield and participating in a war, or they may be forced to retire due to serious injuries.

If there are White Zetsu cells, the loss rate of ninjas can be greatly reduced.

Unless they die on the battlefield, as long as they can be rescued, they can continue to be ninjas.

"I just did what I should do." Orochimaru smiled and shook his head.

A person of Orochimaru's status is almost immune to flattery, but he still appreciates the praise of his disciple.

Moreover, it is indeed his credit that he was able to study the effects of White Zetsu cells in a short period of time.

Although White Zetsu cells are magical, if the guys in the Root were to study them, they would probably not be able to figure it out in a few years.

However, White Zetsu cells were studied, but Hashirama cells gave Orochimaru a headache.

"Teacher Orochimaru, do you have any other questions?" asked Naoki Asakawa.

"It's still the problem of Hashirama cells." Orochimaru sighed lightly and took Naoki Asakawa and Yakushi Nono to a deeper laboratory.

In this laboratory, there are many culture tanks filled with green nutrient solution, and there is a monkey in each tank.

At a glance, many monkeys in the nutrient solution have died, and their deaths are quite miserable. Many of them were pierced from the inside by branches, and some monkeys even turned into wooden monkeys, which are similar to wood carvings.

The remaining monkeys that had not died seemed to have no problems, and were still absorbing the nutrient solution rapidly, and their vitality was much stronger than that of ordinary monkeys.

However, under the observation of Naoki Asakawa's spiritual sense, most of these monkeys were also eroded by Hashirama cells. The strong vitality was not the vitality of the monkeys themselves, but the vitality of Hashirama cells!

Some monkeys near the edge of the laboratory were also in pain, but the Hashirama cells in their bodies seemed to be merging with the monkeys themselves.

"Teacher Orochimaru, what are these monkeys?" Naoki Asakawa asked, looking at the monkeys on the edge.

"I didn't expect Naoki to find it so quickly, he is really sharp." Orochimaru smiled with a little smugness in his eyes:

"These monkeys were fused with White Zetsu cells in advance, and then fused with the weakened Hashirama cells to barely fuse with Hashirama cells."

"Isn't this a good result? These monkeys are likely to survive." Naoki Asakawa said.

"They can survive," Orochimaru sighed:

"But the probability is too low."

"The dozens of monkeys you saw actually first fused with White Zetsu cells and then fused with Hashirama cells."

"But in the end, only these five can survive."

"..."

The probability is close to one in ten.

Asakawa Naoki couldn't help but think of the experience of Wood Release Yamato. In Naruto, Danzo and Orochimaru didn't know how many people they had captured to create a Wood Release ninja, and the survival rate was even lower than these monkeys.However, Orochimaru in Naruto can ignore casualties, and the one in ten probability may even exceed his expectations.

But Orochimaru at this moment can't do that.

His awe of life has not disappeared.

Without a 50% survival rate, Orochimaru can't conduct clinical trials.

"Teacher Orochimaru, I want to try to fuse Hashirama's cells." Asakawa Naoki suddenly said.

"What? Naoki you!"

Orochimaru looked at Asakawa Naoki in shock, his eyes full of confusion.

The expression of Yakushi Nono was similar.

She thought that Asakawa Naoki, who could secretly control the Hidden Rain Village, was not a very cunning person, but he was also concerned about the overall situation.

Unexpectedly, he, who had seen the miserable state of these monkeys, was still so reckless?

"You misunderstood." Asakawa Naoki smiled awkwardly:

"Actually, I mean, let my clone fuse Hashirama's cells."

For the ninjas in the ninja world, things like Hashirama's cells are basically a magical tool.

As long as the fusion of Hashirama's cells can be successful, not only will the amount of chakra increase greatly, but the recovery ability will also be significantly strengthened, and the side effects of pupil techniques similar to the Sharingan can be reduced, and even the legendary Wood Release can be obtained!

But for Asakawa Naoki, Hashirama's cells are actually nothing big.

He doesn't even look down on things of this level, let alone fuse them.

But the external incarnation is different. Although the external incarnation has good combat power, he basically regards it as a magic weapon, and letting it fuse Hashirama's cells is like adding some materials to strengthen the magic weapon.

Even if the strengthening fails, he can refine another external incarnation.

The most important thing about the external incarnation is actually to control a trace of its soul, not the body.

"As for that clone, you can try it." Orochimaru's eyes lit up.

If it were another ninja, even if it was Nawaki, the grandson of Hashirama Senju, Orochimaru would not recommend him to fuse Hashirama's cells.

But Asakawa Naoki's cells can defeat and devour Hashirama's cells without injury, and the fusion result is really uncertain.

Even if it fails, it's just the loss of a physical clone. At most, it can cost some money to create another one.
