The heavens might have seen Ryoha receive guidance from the Third for a month, so they did not want him to be able to rest so happily when he came back. As he just stepped into the house, Haku had already walked over anxiously.
"Ryoha-sama, Bulma-sama told me to tell you that if you come back, you should go find her immediately." Haku said.
"To be this anxious... Bulma should have succeeded in his research." Ryoha thought of this and immediately rushed to the underground laboratory after greeting Haku. Bulma's residence occupied a lot of space because the basement was divided into many rooms. There were all kinds of training rooms, electronic equipment rooms, the gravity chamber, Bulma's underground research rooms, and so on.
However, these basements were all installed with powerful detonation devices that could destroy the entire basements in an instant without leaving any remains behind. This was so that, under some circumstances, Bulma could instantly destroy the entire basement and keep everyone from knowing about the secrets inside.
"You're finally here. Hurry up and sit down. Tomorrow will be the final stage of the Chuunin Exam. If you're not wrong, starting tomorrow, Konoha will in chaos. You might be in danger. You must complete it before tomorrow. This way, you will have another trump card. Perhaps this will be useful at the critical moment."
When Bulma saw Ryoha come in, he immediately pulled Ryoha to the experimental platform, telling him to lie there. Then, she immediately began the operation. This made Ryoha covered in a cold sweat. Bulma looked like she was ready to dissect some corpse or something.
"This month, when you were fighting with that rotten old man, I finally invented a genetic medicine that could merge the genes in your body with the Hashirama's genes. During the fusion process, the two genes would not find out that they were combined with their mortal enemy. In this way, the genes won't be destroyed." Bulma blinked his eyes and said with a slightly mischievous tone.
"Wait, you said it was just invented?" Have you tested it before? It seems like the blood sample that contains Hashirama's genes that I brought back is gone. How can you still... "
Ryoha was stunned before he could finish his words because he saw a person lying not far away from him. To be precise, it was a dead person. He had died many years ago, but his corpse had been preserved by some kind of secret technique. Therefore, he looked like a living corpse because the face of this dead person was rosy like a living person, but there were no signs of life.
"Sen.. Senju Hashirama? No way, how could he be here? Konoha's guards around him are very strong. I can defeat them now, but I can't kill them without alarming anyone. How did you get them?"
Ryoha looked at Bulma worriedly, obviously not wanting to let Bulma be threatened.
"Don't look at me like that. I won't be so reckless. Look at this." Ryoha opened the screen. Ryoha looked around and found that the screen showed the place where Konoha stored the bodies of the First and Second Hokage, Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama. Ryoha had been there once, so he remembered it very clearly.
"It can't be. Why is there a..." Ryoha looked at Bulma's proud appearance as if she was talking about some kind of demo. He was really curious about what just had happened.
"Can't you tell what's going on? I'm the genius inventor, and the super beauty, Bulma~" The corner of Ryoha's eyes twitched, and a drop of cold sweat appeared behind his head. Although he knew that Bulma was deliberately teasing him, Ryoha could only cooperate obediently.
"At least you're sensible. Alright, I'll tell you." The corners of Bulma's mouth curled up slightly, and his smile became more bright. The joke also stopped at the right time. After all, now was the time to do serious things. A little joke was needed to tease Ryoha and lighten up the atmosphere around them.
"It's very simple. When you were fighting with the Third, Some changes had happened. Maybe it was because of the appearance of Orochimaru. Although the number of guards around the corpses did not decrease, after a few days of observation, I found that there was actually a very short period of time when they changed shifts."
"During that period of time, although I can't directly take away Hashirama's body, I can send out the gene collector. Do you still remember the monstrous warrior Cell in the Dragon Ball that you mentioned? In order to collect the genes of other powerful warriors, Dr. Gero invented a lot of gene collector that was hard to detect."
"I invented one myself according to this principle. While they were changing shifts, I collected the Hashirama's genes. Although only a small amount, it was enough for me to make Hashirama's body clone. However, it was different from the real body. It was only comparable to Yamato that you had mentioned before at most."
"I think Konoha will soon be in chaos. Moreover, they have not made any progress in the research of Senju Hashirama's cells after all these years. When Konoha is in chaos, I think this person called Danzo you mentioned before will definitely shrink his forces and hide, allowing the Third to support them independently. At that time, it will be even more unlikely for them to check Hashirama's body in the future. Even if they do come, they will not find anything wrong."
"...Unless they extract cells from the Senju Hashirama's body for detailed verification, but I think it has already been a while since they did that. Konoha will be in chaos when the time comes, and the Third will die. They will be busy fighting for power. Even the security around the two corpses is weakened. They won't bother to check them."
"Who will they suspect when they find out that something is wrong? Who would know that Hashirama's body was taken away by us? Even if you use Wood Release and got found out, so what? I think that at that time, you are no longer their sole focus, and they may not be able to find out that it was us."
Bulma's plan was very detailed. She had thought of all the unfavorable factors and found a solution.
"I know that you have said so much, but you have not answered my question. How did you take Hashirama's body away?"
Although Ryoha admired Bulma's carefulness in his heart, he wanted to know more about how Bulma could take away the First Hokage's body without alarming anyone under such strict surveillance and how could she not be discovered by others while exchanging such a large body.
"It's very simple. I invented a machine. It has an invisible ability and can release an invisible gas. If an ordinary person inhaled those gas, their brain would be in an illusion state for three hours."
"They would see everything in front of them normally, but in fact, they were in an illusion. What they saw was just the scenes before they fell into the illusion."
"And to deal with the ninjas there, they would only be in the illusion state for 20 seconds at most. The biggest advantage of this invention was that it could make the other party fall into the illusion silently, but when they woke up, they would not notice that they had been put under the illusion."
