Chapter 375: Red Alarm
Inside the Light Village’s laboratory within Sun Stream Plaza.
Arthur’s clones, Ryugetsu and John, were lined up one by one. He placed his hand on each of their foreheads and mentally relayed what he’d learned from Toneri’s books.
With that information successfully transmitted to them, they knew what to do next. So they immediately set to work as Arthur turned and walked toward the freezing containment chamber.
Inside, he knew, lay his most precious resource: cells from Naruto and Sasuke. Their DNA was unique, for they were the two main characters of this world. Their DNA also held the potential to manipulate spacetime itself.
The containment held a small jar of tiny samples. Arthur carefully took them out to examine them. They were still well preserved.
Why had he waited so long to use these? Because failure wasn’t an option. If he couldn’t merge Naruto’s and Sasuke’s cells into a single, stable chakra core, he would lose everything.
The risk of using them now without proper care was simply too high.
More of Sasuke’s cells could be replaced easily, but Naruto’s were rarer. There was only so much he could acquire without raising suspicion. Besides, Arthur was already powerful enough. He’d almost forgotten he had these cells.
At the end of the day, they were his secret weapon to one day acquire more power than anyone in this world could hope to dream of.
He knew why he needed them now: the cells contained Ōtsutsuki chakra; the ancestral chakras of Asura and Indra, passed down through Naruto and Sasuke. It was this chakra that could unlock the secret to traveling through time.
Back in the main room, the clones and Arthur prepared for the next step.
