🕑 Added 2024-02-21 16:54:14 +0000 UTC#Makup Chapter(2/6)
Just as Charles opened his eyes, he saw Tsunade standing in front of him. He glanced down at his own state and found himself lying naked on the ground, with quite a few energy blocks placed around him.
Seeing this scene, Charles remained unfazed. With a casual wave, he wrapped himself in the Merlin cloak.
As for whether Tsunade had seen everything, Charles felt it wasn't important. At worst, he could endure a little embarrassment and find a way to get back at her later.
Tsunade, upon seeing Charles awake, immediately asked, "How do you feel? Any changes?"
Tsunade was indeed very interested in everything related to bloodline metamorphosis. Her interest in bloodline metamorphosis far surpassed than in Charles's well-developed body.
After all, she had observed Charles’s body for quite a long time, but the details of bloodline metamorphosis were not well understood yet.
Hearing Tsunade's question, Charles closed his eyes and felt the changes in his body. He sensed a surge of power throughout his entire body, and his chakra quantity was unusually large.
Charles felt that his originally cultivated chakra had reached 30 times, and his total chakra quantity had surpassed a hundred times.
As Charles mobilized his chakra, a deep blue chakra surrounded him as a terrifying aura erupted from him.
Boom!
The terrifying aura emanating from Charles's body, accompanied by the fierce gusts of wind, wreaked havoc in the room.
Tsunade's expression changed.
"The quality of this chakra..."
Tsunade indeed noticed a tremendous change in the quality of Charles's chakra. It was simply unimaginable, and the released aura even reached the level of a Kage, as perceived by Tsunade.
"Is this the miraculous effect of bloodline metamorphosis?"
Hearing Tsunade's words, Charles was momentarily stunned. To be honest, he had learned about bloodline metamorphosis only because of the system's prompt. Charles asked:
"How do you know about bloodline metamorphosis?"
"Your teacher Balthazar confirmed it. He's resting in the base now."
Hearing that his situation had even alarmed his teacher Balthazar, Charles asked with uncertainty, "How long have I been unconscious?"
"Nine days. It took a full 9 days for your bloodline metamorphosis."
Hearing that it took 9 days, Charles was surprised. He didn't expect it to take this long, considering that he had only gathered the five bloodlines handed down by Kaguya and they were still not fully complete.
Looking at the energy blocks on the ground, Charles asked in confusion, "What happened during these days?"
Since the energy blocks were in his storage space, their appearance here indicated that S.H.I.E.L.D.'s agents had visited and issued a mission.
Especially considering the substantial number of energy blocks, there were as many as 500.
After some contemplation, Tsunade spoke, "A lot has happened these days."
"I have been standing by your side recently, and I don't know much about the situation outside. Secretary Ginny will come over to report to you."
Charles glanced at the damaged room, collected all the energy blocks on the ground into the storage space, and said, "Let Ginny come to the conference room. I'll be waiting for her there."
Tsunade lifted the seal at the entrance and ordered Yamato to inform Ginny. Then she followed Charles and arrived at the conference room, waiting.
…
On the other side-
Two Black Hawk helicopters flew all the way and arrived over the Red Sea, near the border with Ethiopia, with Hidan following closely.
The machine gunner on the Black Hawk helicopter held binoculars, looking at Hidan standing on the sea, revealing a desperate expression.
"Captain, the target is following us."
"He's standing on the sea below."
Upon hearing the report from the machine gunner, the captain's face showed a bitter expression.
"The aircraft's fuel is running out. Since that's the case, let's fly as far as possible and don't give it a chance to salvage the Black Hawk."
"Yes!"
So Black Hawk No. 1 and Black Hawk No. 2 used up their last aviation fuel and headed deep into the sea.
Hidan followed the two Black Hawk helicopters, running wildly on the sea. Soon, he saw the two aircraft began to lower their altitude. Finally, the helicopter's rotor stopped rotating, and it crashed into the sea.
The two helicopters, falling from a height of four thousand meters, instantly shattered upon hitting the sea surface. The agents on board, realizing there was no hope of survival, chose to drink poisons and commit suicide.
Seeing this scene, Hidan knew that he had been played. With no agents surviving, he lost the opportunity for interrogation, and his anger erupted.
"Damn it!"
The three bladed scythe was thrown by Hidan in all directions, hitting the sea surface and creating a large splash of water.
At the military base-
The signals of the two Black Hawk helicopters completely disappeared from the radar. The members of S.H.I.E.L.D. showed sorrow on their faces. The agent in charge of communication spoke, "Commander, Black Hawks have fallen!"
Barton remained silent for a few seconds, making the atmosphere even more tense.
"Everyone, stand up for a three-minute silent tribute to the members of Black Hawk 1 and Black Hawk 2!"
In the command center of the base, everyone stood up after Barton's words, took off their hats, and bowed their heads for a silent tribute to their comrades.
After three minutes, the silent tribute ended.
Barton spoke again, "The crimes committed by the rogue ninja Hidan will eventually be judged by our S.H.I.E.L.D."
"The revenge for our fallen comrades, we will definitely get it back."
"Blood for blood!"
With Barton's words, everyone in the base shouted, "Blood for blood!"
Apparently, Barton did not realize that if they hadn't actively provoked Hidan, such a loss could not have occurred. Everything stemmed from their greed for chakra.
...
On the other side-
Charles sat in the meeting room, closing his eyes and seemingly resting. However, his consciousness entered the system space.
Meanwhile, Tsunade did not disturb Charles and planned to communicate after Charles and Ginny finished their discussion.
In the system space, Charles's consciousness took form, standing on the rooftop of a building in Konoha, overlooking the entire village. Suddenly, a huge firework rose in the sky, forming several large characters as it blossomed.
Congratulations, Charles Doyle has completed the initial bloodline evolution!
As the fireworks faded, a new system message appeared in Charles's mind. By examining the information, Charles learned that his current body had replaced the previous one and now matched the bloodlines of the ninja world.
The cell count had increased twentyfold, and the fusion of the Five Great Bloodlines had reached a preliminary stage, equivalent to the power of the Six Paths Bloodlines after three or four generations of decline.
Moreover, Charles had acquired the power of Hagoromo Otsutsuki, and by collecting the remaining bloodlines of Kaguya Otsutsuki, he could eventually evolve into the level of the Six Paths, becoming like the members of the powerful Otsutsuki clan.
He also gained the ability to become unkillable. Now he can only be sealed.
In addition to these achievements, Charles also obtained the title 'Descendant of the Six Paths' as a system reward, along with one combat slot.
Satisfied with the combat slot reward, valued at 20,000 gold coins, Charles planned to recruit more ninja, especially since he had not yet released all four ninjas he previously acquired.
He intended to release Kimimaro Kaguya, allowing him to lead the Sound Ninja Four to establish a force and exchange resources.
Just as Charles was about to continue releasing the ninjas he had acquired before, he sensed someone entering the meeting room.
Charles promptly exited the system space.
Charles's consciousness returned, and as he was about to open his eyes, he felt something soft against his head.
Ginny, who had just come in, saw Charles waking up and rushed over to hug him, expressing her relief and concern for his well-being. Charles, however, quickly broke free and stood up.
"No need to worry, I'm fine. Thank you for your hard work during this time," Charles reassured.
Tsunade, with a playful look in her eyes, observed Charles, while Ginny's excited expression didn't escape her disdain either.
"And Tsunade, thanks for taking care of me personally during this time," Charles said, emphasizing the term 'personally.'
Charles then changed the topic, "Ginny, I want to know what has happened during this time. Take a seat and slowly explain everything, especially about the energy blocks."
Ginny complied, sitting down, and began reporting the events that had transpired during Charles's unconsciousness.
Listening to Ginny's narration, Charles learned that while undergoing the bloodline evolution, the werewolf squad assigned to protect Jane had clashed with S.H.I.E.L.D. and killed around thirty of their members without any casualties on their side.
Afterwards, S.H.I.E.L.D. claimed it was a misunderstanding, compensated with 200 energy blocks, inquired about werewolf intelligence with another 200 energy blocks, and congratulated the completion of the base with 100 energy blocks as a gift.
Charles, upon hearing Ginny's words, said happily, "You handled this matter very well."
500 energy blocks were a substantial amount, and after recharging, it should elevate his VIP level. The coins obtained could be used for recruiting ninjas or unlocking battle slots, making it a cost-effective investment.
After discussing the werewolf incident, Ginny continued with the information about the rogue ninja Hidan.
She explained her actions, such as instructing Uchiha Itachi to find a way to inform Hidan that S.H.I.E.L.D. was planning to capture him, wanting to cause them greater losses.
She also mentioned the successful results of Tsunade and Orochimaru's research on the potions.
Upon hearing about S.H.I.E.L.D.'s plan to capture Hidan, Charles was momentarily surprised, thinking: It seems that S.H.I.E.L.D. has finally detected what Hidan has been doing in Africa.
However, with Uchiha Itachi's advance notice, Hidan should be able to handle the situation without much trouble.
"Ginny, you've worked hard during this time."
"Now that the physique enhancement potions have all been researched, you guys should prepare for injections to enhance your strength."
However, Ginny interjected, "Mr. Orochimaru says he needs the bodies of wizards. The magic particles have all been used up for experiments and are not enough to continue making the third-generation physique enhancement potions."
Tsunade, on the side, explained, "The magic particles from wizards' bodies were essential for the success of the third-generation enhancement potions. These particles were extracted from the evil wizards you provided."
Hearing Tsunade's explanation, Charles understood. He then said, "Leave this matter to me."
Thinking about the more than seventy evil wizards still in his nested dolls, it would be more than enough for his subordinates to enhance their strength, and he could even manufacture and sell the excess third-generation physique enhancement potions.
Ginny nodded, saying, "Yes, when we have the new potions, I will coordinate with John and others for injections."
"Red Queen!"
In the next moment, a virtual figure appeared in the conference room.
"I'm here!"
"Notify Uchiha Itachi to come over."
After giving instructions to the Red Queen, Charles exchanged a few words with Ginny and let her handle other matters first.
As Ginny left, Uchiha Itachi arrived in the conference room.
Uchiha Itachi knelt on one knee in front of Charles Doyle.
"Lord Charles!"
Seeing the respectful Uchiha Itachi, Charles said, "Rise and speak, Itachi."
"Itachi, what's the situation with Hidan?"
Uchiha Itachi stood up and reported on Hidan's situation.
"Following Secretary Ginny's orders, I have already informed Hidan. As long as he is prepared, he should not fall into the enemy's trap."
"This is a gift from Mr. Hidan to you."
Uchiha Itachi took out a sachet from his ninja tools pouch and placed it on the table in the conference room.
As Charles took the sachet in his hands, he heard the system prompt.
"Ding! Discovered rechargeable items. Would you like to recharge?"
Hearing this sound, Charles's expression revealed delight. Could it be that Hidan found a new energy source on the continent of Africa?
Opening the sachet and pouring its contents into his hand, Charles sighed, "So it's Blood Cores!"
It's not that Blood Cores were considered bad, but they were far from what he had anticipated.
Charles stored all the Blood Cores in his storage space and said, "Itachi, contact the summoning world to confirm Hidan’s safety."
"Yes, Lord Charles!"
After receiving the order, Uchiha Itachi left the conference room. Now, there were only Tsunade and Charles in the room.
