Chapter 273 The Failed Unit-01
"Yahiko, do you really trust them? I think they might betray us."
That night, Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan held a small meeting, during which Konan expressed her distrust and concern about Tetsuka and the others.
Yahiko shook his head: "Of course I don't trust them, I just value their power and want to use it to help us create a new world."
"Of course, I am genuinely cooperating with them, and I will do what I promised them."
Seeing Konan's puzzled look, Yahiko explained, "Shin said that in this world, only a very small number of people think about destroying the world or building a new world. Most people are just muddling along, busy and struggling for their own interests. If we only recruit people who share our aspirations and are trustworthy, we will never realize our ideals. We must unite more people and gather their strength to create a new world."
Nagato placed his hand on Yahiko's shoulder to express his support.
"Yahiko, do as you wish, we fully support you. Konan, don't worry, the longer I have, the deeper my understanding of the Rinnegan will become, and they will have no chance to betray me."
At the same time, Kyosuke and the others were also having a small meeting. Mikami explained the situation that day, while the others remained calm.
The plot has already been completely distorted, so it doesn't matter if it gets even more chaotic.
The key is to gain greater power; only with power can we control the future.
Sensuke asked Kyosuke, "Recently, the conflict between Pakura and Rasa has intensified. Rasa seems to have made contact with Konoha. Do you have any news about this? Also, when can you get the Edo Tensei and revive Ooka Shin as soon as possible? That way, we'll have another ally."
Kyosuke frowned and said, "Although I am now a Hokage disciple, my rank is not high, and I don't have good channels to obtain information. I can't be sure whether Rasa has cooperated with Konoha. As for the Impure World Reincarnation, I have recently shown interest in the Scroll of Sealing, but Minato Namikaze won't let me see it. I dare not show too much eagerness, and I estimate it will take some time."
Everyone's attention turned to Kiichiro. He had been researching for several years and had invested a lot of resources; he was bound to have some results.
Kiichiro chuckled: "After many failures, Unit-01 has been successfully developed and can proceed to the next stage of experimentation. While researching Unit-01, I created gene imprinting technology, which can create bloodline limits at the genetic level. However, I haven't tested it on living organisms yet, and this is my next focus of research."
Seeing the smug Kiichiro, Kyosuke was speechless and reminded him, "Hurry up, we've all reached a critical stage in the struggle. The enemy is very powerful, and we urgently need to strengthen our fighting force."
Upon hearing this, Oniichiro immediately lost his morale and quickly said, "No, no, no, you guys should work hard on your own. My experiment has just entered the deep end, and each step will be more difficult than the last. I was hoping that after you take over, you could use the research resources you have to help me."
The conversation ended with expectations placed on the other person.
The next day, Kiichiro walked into the huge EVA laboratory and looked at the flesh-and-blood giant on the wall.
After numerous screenings and experiments, Kiichiro finally managed to cultivate Unit-01's body using cells from the Kaguya clan.
The giant before them was thirty meters tall, its interior composed of chakra metal, its exterior revealing bright red muscles, devoid of skin tissue.
Its head was bald, just a round ball, without any facial features.
Inside Unit-01, various runes have already been inscribed for control and communication with spirits.
"Then, let's get started!"
Kiichiro formed hand seals, and a massive amount of chakra emanated from his body. Under his control, the chakra enveloped Unit-01 and was continuously absorbed into its body.
Thump thump.
Unit-01's chest rose and fell slightly, its heart began to beat, and chakra flowed through its bones and meridians, nourishing and activating every cell in its body.
Kiichiro established contact with Unit-01 and seemed to have acquired another body.
After finishing the hand seals and ceasing the supply of chakra, Kiichiro piloted Unit-01 forward.
Despite some physical incoordination, Unit-01 still took a steady step forward.
Kiichiro piloted Unit-01 to perform various actions. Most of the actions went smoothly, but some were quite unstable. However, these were minor issues that could be resolved by adjusting his muscles.
However, Kiichiro frowned.
He discovered some problems.
First, the chakra within Unit-01 is consumed excessively, or rather, a great deal of it is dissipated. Even when it remains motionless, the chakra is rapidly decreasing, making it inefficient to use.
Secondly, operating Unit-01 requires multitasking, which inevitably distracts the user and slows down their reaction speed during battle.
The test continued. Three days later, on an island overseas, a giant lizard the size of a small mountain was sleeping. Suddenly, it stuck out its tongue to probe the surrounding air and found an unfamiliar scent. It immediately opened its eyes, propped itself up, turned its head to look to its right, and spotted a small human figure.
Seeing the treat offered to him, the monitor lizard accepted it with a smile, extending its right paw and pressing it forward.
The surrounding light was blocked, and Kiichiro did not take the lead, but simply formed hand seals.
"Spirit Spell!"
Unit-01 appeared, grabbing the giant lizard's claws with both hands. Its arm muscles bulged, and its body suddenly spun around, lifting the giant lizard into the air in a semi-circular arc before flinging it away.
Peng!
The monitor lizard was thrown nearly a hundred meters, its back slamming into a wooded hill, breaking many large trees and causing the entire island to tremble.
"Awoo!"
The giant lizard immediately got up, growling angrily, and then, with its powerful limbs and a rumbling running sound, charged straight toward Unit-01.
boom!
Unit-01 crouched low, grabbed the giant lizard's head with both hands, turned its body to the right, and used the lizard's momentum to launch it forward.
This time the fall was quite hard. After crashing into the ground, the giant lizard felt dizzy. It shook its head to regain its ferocity and charged at Unit-01 again.
Kiichiro's goal was to test the various indicators of Unit-01 and find its flaws, so he wasn't in a hurry to kill the giant lizard and instead calmly began to fight it.
Whoosh whoosh.
Seven or eight minutes later, the monitor lizard was covered in wounds and exhausted. It was breathing heavily, and the fierce light in its eyes had disappeared. It turned around and swung its tail to escape.
"That's about enough, let's try the bloodline limit."
Under Kiichiro's control, Unit-01 crouched down and then suddenly jumped up, covering a distance of more than ten meters, landing on the giant lizard's tail.
He swung his right fist and struck the monitor lizard in the back, knocking it to the ground. The lizard's back caved in slightly, and at the same time, the bone on his fist suddenly grew more than ten meters long, piercing out of the monitor lizard's abdomen and embedding itself in the ground.
Sensing the threat of death, the giant lizard unleashed its ferocity, struggling fiercely. Ignoring its wounds, it suddenly turned around and bit Evangelion's arm.
The giant lizard's mouth was full of sharp teeth. After biting onto Unit-01's arm, it tore it to the left and right, then shook its head, tearing off a large piece of flesh. Blood gushed out, forming a shallow lake on the ground.
Kiichiro calmly watched the whole process, without manipulating Unit-01 to make any resistance, letting Unit-01 be bitten, and then observing Unit-01's wound, only to find that the wound showed no signs of healing.
Oni Ichiro said with some dissatisfaction, "It's really useless. All things considered, Unit-01 can only be used to bully weak opponents; it's completely ineffective against strong ones."
Unit-01 was designed to deal with powerful enemies; what good is it if it can only bully weaker opponents? Kiichiro has already determined that this is a failed product and that we must find a way to improve it.
