Di… Di… Di…!
A Beep sound repeatedly echoed in the cultivation room as Kuroto patiently waited for the incubation process to complete. After a while, the beeping stopped, and the lights on the incubators turned red one by one.
This is a sign that the cells placed into the incubator for fusion have not survived.
The failure didn't affect Kuroto all that much, he understands the cancerous nature of Hashirama Cells, so this was well within his expectations.
Unaffected by failure, Kuroto emptied all five hundred incubators and placed a new batch of Petri dishes inside them for incubation.
His current focus is the manufacturing of the 'Type I Biological Armor' as soon as possible, for this Kuroto is not paying attention to the cost of manufacturing.
Regardless of how much it would cost, Kuroto is using all the resources accessible to him, because the cost of not using all the resources would be too much. Karin's life would be at stake, and there is a possibility that even the two pairs of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan will also be destroyed.
Putting aside how important Karin's life is for his future goals, the loss of a pair of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan alone would be too much. Each pair of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan is an invaluable treasure in the Shinobi World, not to mention two different pairs that are close to evolving into the Rinnegan.
No matter how rich he is, even Kuroto can't afford to bear such a loss, so here time is of the essence.
With this in mind, Kuroto continued to change the batch of Petri dishes after repeated failures and stopped only after the incubation of the twenty-third batch was completed.
As for why he stopped?
The reason is that in the twenty-third batch, one of the incubators flashed a green light instead of a red light. This meant that finally, this set of cells survived the incubation process.
Noting this, a gleam of joy appeared on Kuroto's face, 'Awesome!'
To be honest, Kuroto hadn't expected to succeed so early. And if not for being lucky, the incubation wouldn't have resulted in success for the next twenty to thirty batches.
"Well, it doesn't matter how I achieved the result, the fact that I succeeded matters." Muttered Kuroto as he took out fused cells, and put them for shaping.
This time, he is not going to make a complete clone, but a hollow Armor, for this, he needs to use a shaper, otherwise, the cells will grow randomly, and only God knows what form the cells might end up taking in the end.
With this in mind, Kuroto put the cells inside a shaper and then placed them into a Nutrition tank for the cultivation process.
While the cells were growing into armor, Kuroto started to record data.
This entire ordeal has brought him a lot of experience and data on dealing with the Hashirama Cells, and he plans to use all this data while creating the Yang Clone in the future.
Although creating Yang Clone will be much more difficult compared to this armor, the data from this will definitely prove to be useful at that time. For now, Kuroto knows that he has all the resources necessary for the creation of Yang Clone, the only factor that he needs to consider is the cost.
Thinking of the money that he might need to spend for the creation of Yang Clone, Kuroto feels a little distressed.
Even now, in order to make sure that the armor is completed at all costs, Kuroto completely ignores the factor of cost. Although he succeeded, the funds he consumed weren't small.
Moreover, not long ago, he accidentally created a hole in Ancor Vantian while trying out Dust Release, although the defence of the fortress isn't compromised, the hole still exists and he would have to repair that.
Counting the funds required to fix that hole, and the recent consumption of materials, he has nearly emptied all his backup funds, and couldn't help but sigh, "Money is such a problem, I do wonder will ever be free of this worry."
…
A few hours later
After a few hours of hard work, the 'Type I Biological Armor' was finally completed.
As soon as the armor was completed, Kuroto took it out from the Nutrition tank and went to the operation room.
Here, Karin was curled up in pain, however, she wasn't screaming or crying, instead, she clenched her teeth and trembled.
Kuroto caressed Karin's head and gave her some of his Chakra to ease her pain, and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I have brought something that will ease the pain."
Karin said, "I am not afraid."
Kuroto nodded, and instructed her, "For now stand up, and remove your clothes."
Karin did as asked. After getting up, she removed all her clothes. After she had removed all the clothes, Kuroto put the 'Type I Biological Armor' on her body from her back and attached an extension–that looked like an Umbilical Cord–at her Navel.
After she had put on the armor, Kuroto explained, "This is a temporary armor I created for you. It is made up of my cells and the cells of Shodaime Hokage. This armor has a lot of Yang chakra and it will ease the pain."
Since Karin had bandages wrapped over her eyes, so she couldn't see the appearance of the armor, and asked, "Kuroto-sama, what does the armor look like?"
"Uh… well" Kuroto scratched his cheek awkwardly.
Because he was too hasty in creating this armor, he didn't pay much attention to its appearance, this armor was designed to fulfill its purpose which is why it still has several flaws in its design, it looks a lot like your typical White Zetsu Clone.
But if you consider that this is just a temporary model created in an emergency, and Kuroto didn't have enough time to pay attention to details, then this armor is very good.
Just as he was planning to explain that this is just a temporary design, and he will create a better one for her in the future, Karin suddenly exclaimed, "Kuroto-sama… the pain… it has gone… my head doesn't hurt anymore!"
Kuroto activated his Byakugan and looked at Karin.
Through his Byakugan, Kuroto could see Karin absorbing chakra from the clone through the Umbilical cord. The absorbed chakra continuously towards her eyes.
Because of the external Chakra supply, the draining of Chakra from her body stopped. At the same time, the violent reaction also subsided.
"Thankfully this worked." Muttered Kuroto in relief.
Although this armor doesn't have many features, it saved Karin's life. So, Kuroto can say that the funds weren't wasted.
