Chapter 1427 Concealment

Chapter 1427 Concealment
It is precisely because of the large number of bounty-paying ninjas serving the research institute that the bandits and robbers that had been entrenched in various parts of the ninja world and could not be completely eliminated were wiped out repeatedly in just over half a year, causing the entire criminal world to panic!

It is now very difficult to find bounty missions in the black market.

In a way that had never been imagined, the research institute has brought the ninja world into an unprecedented period of peace.

It can be said that this year, the public security in the ninja world was the best in the past thousands of years.

While the institute was actively preparing for the sixth ceremony, Orochimaru also began to privately prepare for his second ceremony.

"Ahhh"

"Just kill me!"

"I won't let you go!"

In the laboratory, the test subjects confined on the operating table were either wailing in pain or cursing loudly, making the laboratory, which should have been quiet, as noisy as a market.

Pharmacist Kabuto strolled among them, his face full of joy of harvest.

With the continuous iteration of cell transplantation technology, the success rate of both the first-generation cell transplantation surgery and Otsutsuki Shibai's cell transplantation surgery has been greatly improved.

Originally, it would take dozens or even hundreds of experimental subjects to produce a qualified sacrifice by chance. But now, as long as the luck is not too bad and it does not cost too much, it is possible to cultivate enough sacrifices for the ceremony.

At this time, Orochimaru walked into the laboratory.

Yakushi Kabuto came forward and said, "Lord Orochimaru!"

Orochimaru looked at the test subjects on the operating tables and asked, "How is the situation?"

Pharmacist Dou smiled and replied, "Very good, the latest cell transplantation technology has increased the success rate by another three percentage points!"

"That's good!"

Orochimaru nodded.

As the research institute's control over the ninja world grew day by day, it became difficult even for a strong man like Orochimaru to replenish experimental subjects.

Because once a missing person case is discovered in the area under their jurisdiction, the daimyo will directly notify the institute and ask it to send someone to investigate. And as long as the institute issues relevant tasks, bounty ninjas and even ninjas from various ninja villages will flock to compete for the institute's funding.

Thinking of this, Orochimaru asked again, "Have you dealt with all the mess of this group of people?"

Yakushi Kabuto suppressed the smile on his face and said, "It has been dealt with, but it seems to have attracted the attention of some bounty ninjas."

Orochimaru said, "Let's go somewhere else next time!"

"understand!"

Pharmacist Dou nodded slightly. He knew very well what the consequences would be if this matter was discovered by the research institute.

Arriving in the study, Orochimaru looked through the experimental records and said, "We need to start the second ceremony as soon as possible!"

Seeing that Orochimaru seemed a little worried, Yakushi Kabuto asked, "Lord Orochimaru, has something happened?"

Orochimaru said, "I suspect Yamada Shigeichi is hiding the fact that he has awakened his divine arts!"

Yakushi Kabuto was surprised: "What!?"

Orochimaru frowned and said, "He might be worried that he would end up like Owl, so he chose to conceal it for the sake of being smart."

Kabuto Yakushi asked, "Then what should we do?" Orochimaru shook his head.

If Yamada Shigeichi really chose to hide the awakening magic from the research institute, it would not be good news for him. Because the research institute is not so easy to fool, and after a long time, Yamada Shigeichi will definitely reveal his true colors.

Once the research institute confirms that Shigekazu Yamada concealed the matter, it is likely to arouse the institute's suspicion of him.

After all, among the three experimental subjects who successfully survived the ritual, including him, two awakened their divine powers, but he was the only one who didn't. Anyone would have doubts.

Seeing that Orochimaru was silent, Kabuto Yakushi asked, "Can you confirm that Yamada Shigeichi has awakened the divine art?"

Orochimaru shook his head again: "It's just a hunch!"

"Intuition?"

Pharmacist Kabuto showed a helpless expression.

Orochimaru changed the subject at this time: "Arrange the second ceremony as soon as possible. We don't have much time. We must improve our strength as soon as possible while Uchiha Shinji is stuck with other things!"

Yakushi Kabuto assured, "I understand. I will definitely not let you down!"

After leaving his secret laboratory, Orochimaru rushed towards the research institute.

He actually didn't tell the truth to Kabuto Yakushi just now. Regarding Yamada Shigeichi's awakening of the divine power, it was not entirely intuition, but also a faint sense of "absorption".

During a test, he was discussing with Yamada Shigeichi and found that his divine art 'Absorption' had a reaction to Yamada Shigeichi. Although the reaction was very weak, it was an undoubted signal for him.

Therefore, he was certain that Yamada Shigeichi had awakened the divine art, but the state might be not right. Either Yamada Shigeichi had not yet fully mastered the divine art that he had just awakened, or the divine art that Yamada Shigeichi awakened this time was somewhat special.

"The research institute has begun to become suspicious. Yamada Shigeichi is no match for Amado. I must take action in advance!"

On the way, Orochimaru secretly made up his mind.

He originally didn't want to take action so early, but Yamada Shigeichi foolishly chose to conceal it, which might very well arouse the suspicion of the research institute, and this suspicion would eventually spread to him who was also a subject of the ritual experiment.

Therefore, if one wants to dispel the suspicion of the research institute, the best way is to absorb Yamada Shigeichi's magic and prove that Yamada Shigeichi is unable to awaken the magic.

In this way, the possibility of Xiao awakening his magic becomes a low-probability event, and the suspicion that he may conceal his magic no longer exists.

After returning to the research institute, Orochimaru went straight to the testing site.

Sure enough, he saw Shigeichi Yamada in the testing field.

During this period, Shigeichi Yamada almost stayed at the testing ground, continuously participating in various tests arranged by the research institute, and he seemed to enjoy it very much and had no complaints at all.

Walking to the observation area at the side, Orochimaru casually pulled up the test record and asked the researcher while flipping through it, "How many tests are there today?"

Knowing that Orochimaru is not only the team leader but also one of the top fighters in the institute, the researcher quickly stood up and replied respectfully: "There will be a physical combat test next."

"A physical skill confrontation test?" After a pause, Orochimaru asked, "Who is in charge of the test?"

The researcher replied: "Dimon!"

Orochimaru's heart sank, and he thought: "It seems that Amado is really suspicious and actually sent Dimon to test Yamada Shigeichi."

Feeling that if he didn't take action, Yamada Shigeichi would most likely be discovered by Amado, Orochimaru smiled and said, "My hands are itching. Go inform Amado, and I'll be in charge of the next physical confrontation test!"
