"Alright!"
At this moment, Aizen clapped his hands and said, "Let's get back to the main topic! We're going to start analyzing Sage Chakra now! Later, I'll also leave a message for those who haven't arrived yet. Let's aim to finish this within a month!"
"Agreed!"
"No objections!"
"Looking forward to it!!"
Everyone voiced their agreement.
After some more discussion, they all exited the consciousness space.

Five days later, in the Naruto world...
"As expected, maintaining Sage Chakra for a long time and using it to temper and nurture the body does gradually push the body towards the Sage body!"
After five days of analyzing Sage Chakra and constantly maintaining Sage Mode, even though it was overloading his body, his monstrous recovery ability allowed him to endure it.
Then, Uchiha Renzo noticed new changes in his body.
"But this process is way too slow! Master, I've done the calculations. Completing this transformation will take at least several years, if not close to a decade! I doubt you'd want to wait that long!"
Red Queen analyzed Renzo's physical changes over the past few days and reported her findings.
"You're right."
Uchiha Renzo nodded. Stepping out of the testing chamber, he dressed and asked Red Queen, "How's the final test on the Uzumaki Sage body serum going?"
As he spoke, he walked to the adjacent lab, entered a small compartment, and picked up an Eevee inside.
That's right! An Eevee!
This was an Eevee that Renzo had created using his abilities during recent experiments. Rather than wasting the results of the Uzumaki Sage body tests, he decided to use it for experimentation.
Now, this was an Eevee with the Uzumaki Clan's bloodline— Uzumaki Eevee.
"Master," Red Queen promptly responded, "all tests have been completed, and Uzumaki Eevee is in excellent condition! Do you want to proceed with the final trial?"
"No need! This is fine!"
Using his ocular abilities, Renzo performed a thorough analysis of Eevee and compared it to its pre-experiment state. The results confirmed that the serum was safe for human use.
After all, in some ways, he wasn't so different from an Eevee himself.
He understood the biological gap between Eevee and humans better than anyone.
"Red Queen! Administer the Uzumaki Sage body serum to me!"
"As you command!"
That very day, Uchiha Renzo completed the injection of the Uzumaki Sage body serum.
"As expected! Sage Chakra and the Sage body are the perfect combination! Not only has my body's burden been minimized, but the evolution process has significantly accelerated! My theory was correct!"
Over the next three days, after completing his transformation, Renzo continued analyzing Sage Chakra while monitoring his body's changes.
He quickly identified the benefits.
"Congratulations, Master! The experiment was a success!"
Red Queen congratulated him.
"Heh! You played a crucial role too, Red Queen! Now, let's move on to the Senju Sage body and Wood Release bloodline experiments! Hopefully, we'll succeed soon and acquire an even stronger Wood Release bloodline serum!"
Renzo spoke with anticipation.
At the moment, although he had already analyzed and learned Wood Release, even with Sage Chakra's assistance, his level was only comparable to Senju Hashirama's base setup.
His mastery of Yang Release wasn't thorough enough.
"Master, as you know, this requires Hashirama's original cells, which we currently don't have!"
Red Queen reminded him.
"Hashirama's original cells, huh? Looks like I'll have to borrow some from Danzo!"
Uchiha Renzo rubbed his chin, pondering.
With that thought in mind, he immediately left his laboratory base, returned home for a moment, and left a shadow clone stationed there.
His real body then transformed and teleported to an abandoned street in the eastern part of Konoha.
Using his sensory abilities, he tried to locate the underground Root base several hundred meters away, but he encountered resistance.
"As expected, it won't work. Konoha's barrier and sealing techniques are still quite impressive!"
Danzo was a cunning old fox. He had set up a powerful and hidden sealing barrier around his Root headquarters, showing just how cautious he was.
"Looks like I'll have to go in using my Shinigami state. It's not time to confront Danzo yet."
With that in mind, Renzo chose to separate his soul from his body, transforming into his Shinigami form. With a wave of his hand, he stored his physical body inside his Dōjutsu dimension, Takamagahara, and then casually walked toward the entrance of the Root base.
"As expected, they can't see me."
Renzo suppressed his spiritual pressure as much as possible, making himself appear like a normal wandering soul. As a result, he easily bypassed the Root guards at the entrance.
Once he was a hundred meters inside the base, standing in a large hall, his spiritual perception fully synchronized with the underground facility, allowing him to sense everything within it.
However, when trying to extend his senses outside the base, he still encountered interference.
But this was enough!
Sweeping the area with his spiritual perception, Renzo quickly located several areas filled with strong life energy.
One was a laboratory dedicated to Wood Release research.
Another, which he avoided scanning too closely to prevent detection, was where Danzo was located.
That old schemer had already replaced his right arm with one embedded with Hashirama's cells and multiple Sharingan.
"Found it! This should be the place!"
The next moment, Renzo locked onto the area with the densest life energy and instantly teleported there.
A Shinigami might not have teleportation abilities, but Renzo, even in his soul state, still possessed his psychic powers!
Effortlessly, he teleported into a treasury.
Inside, a vast collection of unique items was stored.
Powerful and mysterious ninja tools, rare ninjutsu scrolls, special minerals, and even samples of rare bloodlines…
And, of course, in a massive container made of metal and glass, a large mass of Hashirama's cells!
A huge lump of living flesh.
The size of the sample was as big as a bowl, proving just how much Danzo had taken from the First Hokage's body back in the day.
No, Renzo even suspected this wasn't all of it.
Danzo was known for his paranoia and caution. He wouldn't put all his precious assets in one place.
"There are even Sharingan here? And judging from their appearance, these aren't from long ago but recently acquired!"
His gaze shifted to a nearby shelf filled with test tubes, each containing pairs of Sharingan.
Some were three-tomoe, others two-tomoe, and even a few single-tomoe ones.
With a single glance, Renzo could tell that these had been collected over the past few weeks, or even the past few days.
It seemed that the Uchiha Clan's situation on the Kirigakure battlefield was indeed grim.
However, he wasn't too concerned. As long as Fugaku and a few others were safe, that was enough.
As for the rest?
Most of them belonged to the hardliner faction led by the clan's elders, who were stubborn traditionalists.
They had always looked down on him, treating him with disdain even though he was a prodigy of their own clan.
Their deaths? Not his problem.
It was no secret that Renzo was on good terms with the Third Hokage and Asuma, which made those elders suspect him of betraying the Uchiha Clan.
Such suspicions were understandable among the hardliners.
Fortunately, the moderate and neutral factions, along with those close to Renzo, didn't share the same hostility.
And that was all that mattered to him.
Those were the only Uchiha he cared to protect.
As for the hardliners who despised him?
Let them die.
The fewer of them, the better. Less trouble for him.
"I'll take everything!"
"No way am I leaving anything for Danzo! Heh!"
With a wave of his hand, Renzo stored all the test tubes containing Sharingan into his Takamagahara dimension.
Next, the giant jar of Hashirama's cells?
Taken!
Rare minerals?
Could be useful for enhancing his chakra-based Gundams.
Taken!
Samples of various Kekkei Genkai?
He planned to study bloodline limits in the future.
Taken!
Secret Root documents and classified mission reports?
Blackmail material!
Taken!
In less than a minute, Renzo had completely cleaned out the entire Root treasury.
Satisfied, he teleported back to the entrance, concealed his spiritual presence, and casually walked out of Danzo's hidden Root base…
