Naruto: Long Live Hokage's

Chapter 78: The Human Experiment

A bottomless hole.

The two men Masahiko and Hashirama follow enter a suspicious cave.

The light inside the cave was dim, only a few candles were illuminating the path. Masahiko could not see through the cave, his vision isolated by the darkness.

Both Anbu have entered carrying the bag. Hashirama began to feel that something was wrong. He nodded at Masahiko, ready to enter and explore the place.

But Masahiko stopped Hashirama.

“It's very hidden. There may be an Anbu army down here or just a training ground, but who knows. We don't want to be rash.”

Hashirama said nothing and just nodded.

On the way back to the village, Masahiko secretly used the Shadow Clone and sent it carefully to investigate the situation inside the cave, while Hashirama paid no attention.

This caused the two to become an embarrassing sight; when Masahiko's clone was about to enter the cave, he met Hashirama's clone there.

The two looked at each other for a moment, then Masahiko sighed, “Let's go!” and thought in his heart, “May not be what I think.”.

The two stepped into the entrance, after a few steps, a layer of stairs appeared at their feet. As they descend, the candles on both sides become denser. A straight path descended a hundred meters, then they turned right to find a large gate in front of them.

“What this actually is..” murmured Masahiko; in his perception, the same material used to build this gate covered the entire place, which made him unable to feel anything in it.

The two of them looked at each other and nodded; when they were ready to open the gate, the door opened by itself.

They could see two people inside, which were the two previous forms of Anbu. The four looked at each other. And now the situation became even more awkward and tense.

“Tobu, Hane, why are you standing there?’ A familiar voice sounded from within.

The two Anbu did not say anything, and the man from inside slowly walked to the door. Upon reaching to see Masahiko and Hashirama, the man was stunned.

“…”

The atmosphere became strange, Masahiko took a while to finally wave her hand, “It happens, fancy.. look.... you are here.”.

This person was Tobirama's clone. If it wasn't for the wrong place, he would be very happy if the three clones they met.

“Second grandfather,” He stopped with a tense expression, “Kakak ..”

“This is a training ground for Anbu. Why are you here?” After saying this, Tobirama turned to the two Anbu and said, “You two, go back first.”

Hashirama waited for the two Anbu to leave, then sighed. “Tobirama, you are not good at lying, and Second Grandpa is a Perceptive Shinobi. You know, no secret will remain hidden when that gate opens. Grandpa, what's in it?”

Masahiko looked a little speechless, then he shook his head, “Go see for yourself ..”

Tobirama's face changed; no one could stop Hashirama, not even his brother. Hashirama rushed towards the door behind Tobirama.

Masahiko looked at Tobirama and sighed, “How will you explain this to your brother?”

Although Masahiko had not entered yet, but he already knew what kind of place this was. Just by guessing from the person brought inside, he knew what kind of dark experiment was going on here. He almost forgot that Tobirama was the greatest scientist who ever lived in the Naruto World before Orochimaru was born. However, he never expected that Tobirama was also involved in human experiments.

Tobirama's face was low, but he did not answer Masahiko's questions and chased after Hashirama.

Masahiko shook his head and walked in slowly.

What caught his attention was the bodies of various animals sealed in ice.

“Wait... are all these Called Beasts? Where did he find them? Did he just experiment on animals?” Masahiko muttered. Thinking of the living person that Anbu was carrying, Masahiko shook his head and moved forward.

Various organs and the human body are encased in crystals, such as laboratories. The object of this experiment is,

The humans.

However, after checking for a moment, Masahiko felt a little relieved. He did not find a familiar face there, it seemed like Tobirama did not use the villagers as an experimental object, unlike Orochimaru.

Walking deeper, Masahiko could hear the quarrel between Hashirama and Tobirama.

“Boy brother! I did this for our village! If I manage to develop this Ninjutsu, then we will not be harmed if war happens!”

“Tobirama! Stop this experiment at once!”

“Boy brother! The object of the experiment is a disabled ninja from another village, which is actually the best use of them!”

“Best use of them? This is a human!”

…….

Masahiko came in, and the two brothers looked at him simultaneously, which stunned him for a moment, they waited for him to say something, but Masahiko could only sigh, “You two keep arguing, you two keep arguing, I'll just listen.”

Hashirama would do it again, but Tobirama did not give up either, he would try everything to change his brother's opinion, so he quickly said, “Silver, Grandpa, Ninjutsu I have made some results, so he quickly said, I'll do it. show you!”

Tobirama then walked deeper into another room. After a while, Tobirama dragged someone out.

Hashirama stared coldly at Tobirama, refusing to give up, Tobirama began to show, “Kakak, this is a newly captured spy who spied on our village.”

Hashirama said nothing.

Tobirama then took out a scroll; after releasing it, a small seal of blood inscription appeared in front of them.

Tobirama then used some hand gestures, “Kuchiyose – Edo Tensei!” After the hand was clasped, a coffin rose from the ground and loaded the ninja, then opened again, and the strange face exposed made Hashirama slightly stunned.

“True, it's Edo Tensei... Is this a big change in the world of Naruto?”

The ninja inside the coffin slowly opened his eyes, then remained motionless.

Tobirama explained quickly, “The soul of the person summoned from the afterlife, using this technique only has half of its power before death. I am now trying to make them have ingenuity. If successful, even if we are besieged by the other four big villages, we will have a chance!”

“Calling? A soul? Netherworld?” These three questions were consecutively asked by Hashirama, who frowned at Tobirama.

After only a few seconds, Hashirama became angry.

“Tobirama! You are not only experimenting on the living but also playing with the souls of the dead! This experiment should be stopped immediately!”

Tobirama gets confused, “Kakak! This was for Konoha's sake.” Half-talk, she was stopped by one cold gaze from Hashirama.

“Mokuton – Appearance Deep Forest!” There were no more words, Hashirama decided to destroy the laboratory.

Masahiko's face turned pale, knowing that he would be buried alive.

Not only him, not even Tobirama and Hashirama could survive.

At the main gate of the village, Hashirama and Masahiko were about to enter the village, when the memories of their clones that suddenly flashed in their minds changed the expressions on their faces.

Masahiko frowned slightly, “Development of Edo Tensei has not been completed, and I did not get any witness points.”.

“However, I do not expect it to have a development like this, so it is better that I do not participate.”
