Chapter 220 - 220 (1/2)

In the following two weeks, over 60 children over the age of 10 were sent by Danzo to Orochimaru's lab.

Ryo examined the memories of each of the boys, and on the last wave of children, he finally found Yamato!

Ryo used Genjutsu on him, making him fall asleep. Then, he took him to Orochimaru.

”Orochi san, I've found the one! The experiment will succeed if conducted on this child!” Ryo spoke confidently. After all, he was relying on his knowledge of the Manga, and Orochimaru had a lot more knowledge of what should be done by working with him.

”Will succeed?” Orochimaru was shocked! He was very familiar with Ryo's character. With his saying this, any failure should only be due to his own mistakes conducting the operation.

He took Yamato from Ryo's arms, l_i_c_k_i_n_g his lips in excitement.

”Orochi san, what are we going to do with those children outside?” Ryo asked.

”Leave one for further experimentation, and send the others to orphanage!”

Ryo frowned and said: ”Why? Why do we need another one?”

”Well, that's part of the experiment! You know that for it be complete, we should experiment with another child that does not have such strong vitality, and see how they react to the experiment!”

From an experimental point of view, Orochimaru's words were very reasonable. While it wasn't appropriate ethically, Ryo did agree to help him with the experiment. Therefore, he could only agree.

Ryo was very worried. By what had happened in the Manga, he knew this should probably mean that a child would die.

After hesitating for a moment, Ryo sighed and decided to choose the one with most vitality among the children, and wish for the best. After all, such a child would theoretically be the most fitting for the experiment.

Ryo began inspecting the children one by one. Ten minutes later, he discovered something that he hadn't expected.

A girl that looked around 5 to 6 years old caught his attention. She had slightly dark skin, and her face looked very thin.

But what was special about her was that she had great Spiritual Power. She was very gifted in that regard, unlike the other children.

Spiritual Power is a Manifestation of Yin Chakra. Since Hashirama's cell would give her an overwhelming Yang Chakra, Ryo thought that she had a great chance of balancing that out with her Spiritual Power, achieving a good Yin Yang balance, and surviving the operation.

However, the girl was in a very bad physical state. If they were to perform the operation now, she would inevitably die.

Ryo concluded that she was a great candidate, and then continued scanning the children.

In the end, the girl was the only one out of the 60 that had a chance of surviving. On top of that, she fulfilled Orochimaru's condition of not having great vitality.

Ryo sighed and called Anko, asking her to send the other children to the orphanage, and then help Nono in dealing with them.

Anko nodded and went to perform the task.

After Ryo made the little girl fall asleep, he took her to Orochimaru: ”Orochi San, I found the second child!”

”So fast?” Orochimaru stopped what he was doing, and looked at the little girl in Ryo's arms.

”Orochi san, don't experiment with the little girl for a while. She's in a very bad physical state, and that would interfere with the experiment's result.”
