Uchiha Tonan was very lovingly comforting his human experiment subject when the alarm of his machine went off. But then a loud bang was heard and the blaring sound disappeared. “Sure enough, simply hitting it fixes the issue. I’ll play some music to soothe your mood. You don’t need to be so anxious.”
The gramophone beside the bed played a piece of music by a certain Land of Snow musician. No one knew where Tonan got his hands on this but it sounded very soothing. The fear the female ninja was feeling gradually disappeared. In any case, she had no way to resist. She could only let Tonan do whatever he pleased.
“Alright,” Tonan’s serene voice appeased her as he continued, “You have feelings above your neck. There might be a slight error. But I want to see your reaction, so… I’m very sorry.”
The female ninja felt an unprecedented excitement and asked, “What have you done to me?” Later, she found herself turned over and lying on the bed sideways. Then, the blindfold was removed.
She saw Tonan in a white robe looking at her delicate face with a smile. He gently said, “I’ve done something meaningful. It’s extremely crazy.”
“This guy is much more twisted than I thought. But… it seems to be normal compared to what I read in the books.” The female ninja thought of this and pursed her lips. She asked, “So, what will you do with me later?”
Tonan brought his head close and pressed his forehead against hers. He also caressed her face and said, “Looking at your performance, I’ll not beat around the bush. You probably won’t be able to return to the Land of Wind. Was there anything you wanted to tell your family? Let me help you write a letter to them and send it back.”
The woman felt a hot, fiery male breath coming towards her face and her mentality changed. Her eyes became blurred and she replied, “Do you want to take me back to Konoha?”
Tonan didn’t reply. He slowly got up and picked up the pen and paper from the table. He went back to the sofa and sat down, signaling with his eyes for her to talk. The female ninja looked at him with a complicated expression and sighed in resignation. “I don’t have parents.”
Tonan raised his eyebrows and nodded, “That’s alright.”
The female ninja thought about it for a while and then with a look of reminiscence, she said, “I can write a letter to the patriarch, just say…”
As the female ninja narrated her words, Tonan quickly wrote them down on the paper. After a long time, he looked up at the clock on the wall and put down the pen in his hand. He lightly said, “You had so much to say.”
The female ninja who was speaking thought that Tonan was tired of writing, so she stopped speaking. She then quietly looked at Tonan. “Is this the man I’ll rely on hereafter…”
“Hey, why aren’t you talking?” Tonan stared at the clock and put his index finger in front of his mouth. “Shh… only ten seconds left.”
The female ninja frowned and asked suspiciously, “What do you mean?”
Immediately after, her pupils suddenly shrank and she felt a buzzing in her head. She began making chaotic sounds. Seeing her face was distorting gradually, Tonan’s gentle expression was replaced with an indifferent one and he folded his arms in front of his chest.
He said, “Thank you for your contribution to the progress of the Ninja World. What I gave you to drink at the beginning can rapidly consume your physical energy. It makes your body dormant and no longer reciprocates any feedback to the brain. As a result, your brain and your body lose their connection. Later, I gave you another shot to solidify the gap in this link.”
“Life is truly amazing. Especially in this world, there are things like yin and yang. But it’s a pity, the yin and yang of the human body interact with each other all the time. It’s too troublesome to study and record them. So, I thought of separating them temporarily to record data.”
“The data recording process was not bad. It’ll help my research for sure. The injection just now was a pharmaceutical drug I learned about that turns people insane. I’ve seen lunatics before but I’m very curious about what a crazy person’s world is like. And adhering to the spirit of exploration, I want to experience it myself. At the same time, I want to record the medical process.”
“You were the calmest one among all the prisoners. And the stable emotions allowed me to better observe the data and reduce errors. That’s why I kept comforting you.”
After explaining all this to the woman who had already lost her mind and her senses, Tonan looked at the instrument screen on the side. “So that’s how it is! The frequency of your brain waves has become irregular. The amplitude of wave crest and wave trough is also asymmetrical.”
Right at this moment, the instrument screen’s display swayed and a warning alarm sounded. “This is so annoying. At a critical time, this kind of nonsense has happened.” Tonan frowned and got up. He walked over to the instrument and hit it a few times with his palm.
Bang, bang, bang… The screen on the instrument went black and black smoke came out of it… Tonan exhaled heavily and said with an ugly expression. “It seems that it can’t be used. I don’t understand this kind of high technology.”
Ah! At this time, a high-pitched scream sounded. The female ninja bounced off the bed and extended her claws, trying to grab Tonan with a hideous smile on her face. However, in the next moment, as if she was hit by Body Fixed Technique, she was fixed on the spot.
On the ground, Tonan’s shadow had stretched all the way to the female ninja. He rubbed his hand and muttered while thinking, “Has it already reached the limit? She was able to break through the drug’s restriction. It’s unreasonable. Let me take a look at the sensory world of a lunatic.”
After that, Tonan stretched out his right hand and placed it on top of the female ninja’s head. Mind Reading Technique. In the confined space, half was a warm pink room and the other was a laboratory under the blazing white lighting.
The gramophone was playing weird music… Time passed by slowly…
After a long time, Tonan withdrew his palm and excitedly said, “So that’s what it is like. No wonder people are most prone to madness when they are frightened or in great grief. Because such stimulation will make the soul have the instinct to escape.”
“The source of constant consumption of the spirit, and wanting to break free from the shackles of the body, caused the spiritual energy to skyrocket and attack the mind. No wonder ninjas who are good at using yin-style ninjutsu are mostly calm. That’s because they are good at controlling spiritual energy.”
Tonan frowned again as he analyzed what he understood and inwardly thought. “I haven’t found a way to combine yin and yang. Is it necessary to rely on the power of the Six Paths to do this? What about logic? There must be logic for everything. The only instrument I had was also destroyed. How can I continue to research now?”
After thinking about it, Tonan glanced at the immobilized female ninja. This experimental material was already useless now. With another thought, the shadow spread to the female ninja’s neck and turned into a pair of black hands, twisting it lightly.
With the sound of something falling to the ground, Tonan walked over to the destroyed instrument and glanced at the label behind the instrument. He read the printed label: Made in the Land of Wind.
Tonan touched his chin and muttered, “Yes, these puppet-playing fellows should know how to fix this thing. It seems I’ve to go out and move my muscles and bones.”
In the past half month, the ninjas of three great villages had continuously entered the Land of Rain and assassinated each other. Tonan had also obtained the abilities of the Ino-Shika-Cho, Kurama, and Aburame clans.
Especially the Nara clan’s Shadow Imitation Technique. It was a pure yin-style ninjutsu. Now, he was able to control the power of yin-style and yang-style as he pleased. But he hadn’t been able to integrate the two styles to create the yinyang-style.
