Ran walked up to Kenshi, crouched down, pried open his right hand, and took away the sharp shard of the bowl. He didn't miss the scattered shards on the ground either, taking those away along with the chopsticks.
After the Third Hokage left, Ran had been in the interrogation room the whole time.
His mission was to prevent Kenshi from committing suicide.
After cleaning up and making sure Kenshi had no way to quickly commit suicide, Ran released the immobilization jutsu on him.
Akemiya Kenshi, having regained his ability to move, didn't try to commit suicide again.
With Ran here, he wouldn't be able to bite his tongue or hit his head against the wall. He knew this very well.
Akemiya Kenshi continued to sit on the ground, his eyes still fixed on the torture bed that filled him with fear.
Heh!
Heh!
After sitting there for a while, Kenshi suddenly laughed, but there was no laughter in his voice. It was more like a desperate cry.
Slap!
Slap!
While laughing, Kenshi slapped himself, once on the left, once on the right, repeatedly.
"You coward!"
"You have no courage!"
"You're a waste!"
"You're a piece of trash!"
He slapped himself while mentally berating himself. Kenshi regretted it. Why hadn't he committed suicide yesterday? If he had died yesterday, he wouldn't have to suffer so much pain today and in the future.
Slap!
Slap!
Ran hid in the corner, watching Kenshi slap himself again and again, without stopping. He just watched.
Akemiya Kenshi didn't know that even if he had really cut his wrist artery yesterday, he wouldn't have died.
That kind of injury would only take a few minutes for Ran to heal.
The Third Hokage valued Kenshi so much, how could he possibly let him have the chance to commit suicide?
He was destined to continue to sink into the Third Hokage's bloody hell.
For the next week, Kenshi's screams continued to echo throughout the interrogation room.
After all ten of his fingernails were pierced, the gaps between his ten toes didn't escape either. They were all pierced.
But the pain wasn't as intense as it had been at the beginning.
Akemiya Kenshi's screams were getting weaker day by day.
It was clear that Kenshi's body was quickly adapting to this intense pain.
Or perhaps, his spirit was gradually collapsing.
This collapse wasn't the kind where he passed out, but a true collapse, the kind that would lead to death.
One morning, again.
Akemiya Kenshi sat on the ground, eating the noodles in his bowl. His eyes were still vacant, but there was a flash of something unbelievable deep within them.
"I survived?"
He had survived that pain.
Although it was really painful, unbearable.
But Kenshi had endured it. At least, he wasn't thinking about suicide anymore.
"Maybe… I can save myself?"
"Yes, that's right, I can save myself!"
The moment this thought came to him, Kenshi's mind couldn't help but go wild.
He had to get out!
He had to get out alive!
He had to kill the Third Hokage!
He had to kill everyone who belonged to Konoha!
He had to destroy the world!
Akemiya Kenshi lowered his head. At this moment, his eyes were blood red, and his world was also blood red.
Yes!
He couldn't just die like this.
He had to live.
He had to return the pain he had endured a hundredfold, a thousandfold, a millionfold, a billionfold to the Third Hokage, to Konoha, to the world.
He hated this world!
He hated this world that spoke Japanese!
He wanted to destroy this world.
The thoughts in his mind gradually solidified. Kenshi had to live. He had to save himself.
How to save himself?
How could he save himself?
To get out of here, he either needed overwhelming power to break through everything, or the ability to escape silently, avoiding other people's perception and tracking.
It was clear that he didn't have overwhelming power.
He wouldn't be able to possess the power to break out of Konoha within a few years.
So… the only option left was the ability to escape Konoha silently.
What ability could hide from the Anbu ninjas' perception and tracking, allowing him to escape silently from this secret room?
"Perfect Transformation Technique!"
The first thing that came to Kenshi's mind was the jutsu that his father, Akemiya Takuya, had wanted to create but had given up in despair.
As long as he could create the Perfect Transformation Technique, he would have a chance to escape.
Akemiya Takuya's Perfect Transformation Technique had actually been developed to the final step.
Shadow Clones were already very perfect, except for the weakness of not being able to hide chakra.
Hashirama's Wood Release Clones were already very realistic, but Uchiha Madara's Rinnegan could still see a slight difference.
But Shadow Clones, even the Six Paths level Otsutsuki Kaguya, with her Byakugan and Rinnegan, couldn't see through them.
As long as he could hide his chakra, and then replace the Shadow Clone with a Transformation Technique, he could transform into a small bird with no chakra fluctuations.
As long as he could get out, he wouldn't be detected by ninja perception.
The only difficulty now was how to hide or disappear his chakra.
"How to hide or disappear my chakra?"
Akemiya Kenshi thought about it, but he didn't have any ideas until night.
But it didn't matter, he would increase his chakra amount first.
No matter how he researched, chakra was the foundation.
Without a certain amount of chakra, he couldn't use any jutsu, and he couldn't maintain them for long.
He needed chakra.
He needed to survive.
Akemiya Kenshi's eyes were filled with unprecedented determination. He could endure the Third Hokage's painful torture. As long as he had time, he would definitely be able to leave alive.
Night.
Akemiya Kenshi's determined eyes, filled with the desire to live, trembled again when the Third Hokage took out a sharp needle emitting a faint glow, and pulled down his pants.
"You… you… what are you doing?"
The Third Hokage ignored Kenshi's words. He grabbed his little guy, adjusted its position, turned back to look at Kenshi, who was trembling in fear, and smiled, "Don't worry, there are many kinds of pain that humans can feel. You still have many kinds of pain waiting for you to experience."
"Kill me!"
"Please, kill me!"
Akemiya Kenshi already knew how the Third Hokage was going to torture him. He was scared. He was terrified.
He had thought that the pain of the needle piercing his fingernails was the most painful pain a person could feel.
And after enduring that intense pain, he thought that no pain could defeat him.
But the moment the Third Hokage pulled down his pants, Kenshi realized that he had overthought it, and overestimated his psychological tolerance.
Piercing his fingernails with a needle was just an appetizer. This was the main course that would tear his body and mind apart.
Even before the Third Hokage actually started, Kenshi couldn't bear the fear in his heart.
Just today, he had firmly expressed his determination to save himself, to live.
Now, Kenshi just wanted to die.
"Please, kill me!"
Akemiya Kenshi begged the Third Hokage to kill him again.
The Third Hokage remained unmoved. He would use any means necessary against an enemy. And to be honest, his heart wouldn't feel a shred of pity. His heart was much colder than people imagined.
"Ah… ugh…!"
A sharp scream, as if it could shatter the entire building, burst out of Kenshi's mouth. It was impossible to describe the pain he was enduring at this moment.
