His energy and recovery ability have reached an astonishing level.
Therefore, even if you only sleep for a short time or stay up all night, you will not experience any discomfort.
"You're awake."
As Kiyoshi came downstairs, a crisp sound came from the kitchen next to the living room.
She had her sleeves rolled up high and was carefully turning the egg rolls in the pan.
"You won't have to get up so early anymore."
Kiyoshi said.
After each night, Mikoto would always wake up earlier than him.
After washing up in advance, I prepared breakfast for Kiyoshi.
Because Mikoto often visited Kiyoshi's house, her toiletries are still here.
"I don't want you to go hungry in the morning..."
Mikoto pursed her lips, her smile softening.
"I won't go hungry."
Qingsi shook his head.
Now he only needs to absorb nutrients every now and then; for him, food is more about satisfying his taste buds.
Upon hearing this, Mikoto lowered her head slightly.
Seeing her somewhat dejected face, Kiyoshi reached out and patted Mikoto's head.
"However, eating a little bit in the morning can indeed make people feel happy."
Kiyoshi said.
His home has been divided into several buildings, enclosed by a courtyard.
The one in the very center is his own residence, and the ones next to it are the residences of Guren, Tayuya, and others.
So Mikoto was only wearing a thin coat, and Kiyoshi could still see some of her highlights.
Mikoto gave a soft "hmm" and continued working.
The aroma from the pan gradually intensified, the egg rolls turned golden brown, and the oil sizzled softly as it heated up.
"What did you do?"
Qing Si asked casually.
"Miso soup, grilled fish, natto, and egg rolls."
Mikoto said.
"can."
Qing Si nodded slightly.
This is a classic morning routine in Konoha, or rather, the Land of Fire.
It is called "one soup and three dishes" or "one soup and three dishes". Most of them include rice. The most common soup is miso soup.
Other side dishes may include grilled fish, egg dishes, seaweed, natto, and various vegetable side dishes.
Would you like mackerel or anchovies?
Mikoto's bright red lips parted slightly, her black hair cascading down her back, with a few strands falling to her cheeks.
"Silverfish, perhaps."
Kiyoshi said.
If it's mackerel, simply sprinkle it with salt and grill it.
Leftover fish from the previous night can also be quickly stewed and reused as a convenient side dish.
But there's an even simpler method: silverfish, which involves simply layering a thin layer of tiny white fish fry on top of rice.
These fish fry also contain chakra, and the taste of silverfish from different regions is completely different.
"it is good."
Mikoto nodded.
As she turned to ladle out the soup, her exposed collarbone appeared exceptionally white in the morning light.
Soon, Mikoto placed two breakfasts on the table.
There are only her and Qing Si at home now, so she only made two portions.
What do Sasuke and the others eat for breakfast?
During the meal, Kiyoshi asked.
"Itachi is a good cook and will cook for Sasuke. There are still ingredients in the refrigerator."
Mikoto took a small sip of the miso soup and said.
She stared at Kiyoshi's profile, feeling a strange sense of satisfaction.
No matter how young and powerful Uchiha Hikari is, Kiyoshi is still by her side.
"It's getting cold."
Kiyoshi reminded.
Mikoto nodded, her heart skipped a beat for a moment, her ears turned slightly red, and she continued eating her breakfast.
After breakfast, Kiyoshi accompanied Mikoto for a stroll before returning to the laboratory in the Land of Grass.
Clang.
The black "Box of Elysium" landed on the stone platform, and the sound of metal hitting the ground echoed in the secret chamber.
Kiyoshi looked down at it.
The four sculpted faces still retained expressions of joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, with shadows seemingly writhing around their edges.
He took out the black fruit he had wished for that day; the surface of the fruit gleamed with an ominous dark luster.
He dissected the black fruit, breaking it down into thousands of fragments.
Then he distributed these to the puppet clones and ordered them to begin experimenting.
Since Kiyoshi took control of the Spirit Communication Island within the Sea Kingdom, he has had a stable source of experimental materials.
He watched quietly as the puppet clones began their experiments.
It started as a two-headed wolf monster, which is usually a summoning beast that wandering ninjas like to contract. It will devour all the corpses and is suitable for destroying evidence.
After consuming some of the black fruit fragments, the two-headed wolf began to writhe violently, its body expanding and deforming at a visible speed, with countless fleshy growths protruding from its skin, before finally exploding into a cloud of blood mist.
Next came the second summoned beast. Its body began to convulse violently, cracks appeared on its skin, and blood vessels bulged. After a moment, its body completely melted into a pool of black flesh.
The series of experimental results were exactly as Kiyoshi had expected.
After collecting data for several days, Kiyoshi gradually figured out how to use the "Box of Elysium".
It is similar to possession by a demon, but the difference is that the power of the "Box of Bliss" is too violent, and ordinary summoned beasts cannot withstand this kind of twisted evolution.
"Previous research on the data of the demons allowed us to take many shortcuts in this experiment."
Kiyoshi stood in front of the lab table; the two had many things in common.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be results so quickly.
In particular, the exploitation of negative emotions and the distortion of flesh and blood.
At this moment, various spirit beast samples are quietly suspended in dark green nutrient solution in the glass containers arranged around them.
Beneath their bodies, extremely fine black mist swirls slowly, as if it were alive.
Those are samples that have been injected with black fruit.
After adjustments, the number of cases where patients would immediately go berserk and mutate after taking the medication has decreased significantly, and the situation is now much more stable.
Kiyoshi bent over to observe and record, his pen tracing lines of dense data across the lab notebook.
"Everything is difficult at the beginning... but if you are in the right direction, the path will appear on its own."
He took off his gloves and opened the storage cabinet next to him.
Inside was a row of transparent syringes, containing the chakra he had extracted from the black fruit, which was also filled with intense fear.
Kiyoshi arrived at a valley on the outskirts of the Grass Country.
"It's time for you to evolve again."
Qing Si patted his sleeves and signaled for the white snake to come out.
The enormous white snake then quietly appeared and affectionately nuzzled Kiyoshi with its massive head.
These ordinary summoned beasts will no longer suffer from negative mutations, and the White Snake, who has long been accustomed to the existence of dark chakra, will naturally be even less likely to experience this.
The moment the white snake consumed the black fruit.
Her body reacted violently instantly, expanding rapidly at a visible speed, her muscles bulging like mountains, and her bones stretching and reshaping.
The white scales on its body surface are constantly breaking, the snake skin is peeling off, revealing tender new scales.
But these new scales appear to be harder than the previous ones.
The white snake raised its head in pain yet excitement, and the sound it emitted was no longer a simple hiss, but rather a sound imbued with chakra that reverberated throughout the entire valley.
"Awakened sound-based illusion magic."
Kiyoshi watched this scene unfold.
Summoning beasts usually have their own unique abilities, just like human bloodline limits.
Just like the summoning beast Baku, which was contracted by Danzo Shimura, it can open its mouth wide and use the "Wind" Release to attract and devour all objects in front of it.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's contracted Enma can transform into the Golden Cudgel.
"There should be an A... no, an S-rank illusion."
Kiyoshi could sense a stream of Yin Release chakra being continuously released.
The white snake before them, whose head already had a pair of protruding horns, now grew wildly like vines that had absorbed nutrients, and began to keratinize, instantly becoming as thick and strong as the gnarled branches of an ancient tree.
The surface was wrapped with solid, constantly pulsating black-purple chakra arcs.
Stab it!
At the same time, the scales on both sides of its back suddenly tore apart, accompanied by a heart-wrenching sound of flesh writhing, and two huge fleshy wings broke free of their restraints and stretched out rapidly.
The wing bones quickly took shape, and a translucent, tough membrane rapidly covered them, eventually transforming into a pair of enormous, pale wings.
With a gentle flap of its giant wings, it instantly stirred up a violent airflow in the valley, sending sand and stones flying and green leaves scattering everywhere.
"His ability to fly is somewhat like that of the feathered serpent god in mythology."
Kiyoshi's crimson Sharingan meticulously observed the ever-growing, unstoppable flow of dark chakra within the white snake's body.
"What other abilities have you awakened? Use them all at once."
Kiyoshi addressed the white serpent suspended in mid-air.
"Yes, Master."
The white snake nodded, and then chakra began to gather between the two menacing black horns on her head.
That was highly compressed dark chakra, constantly rotating, eventually forming a sphere.
call out!
A high-density black chakra ball roared out and rapidly bombarded a distant mountain peak.
The section of the mountain that was hit instantly turned to dust, and huge rocks tumbled down like a waterfall.
After the dust settled, only a shocking giant circular crater remained, its walls charred black.
"...Similar to the transformation principle of the 'Tailed Beast Ball,' but its core is not Yang or Yin chakra, but rather an extreme form of dark chakra filled with destructive desire."
Kiyoshi felt that this dark attribute chakra should be considered a variant of the "Yin" chakra.
A normal "Tailed Beast Ball" is composed of Yang-attribute blue chakra and Yin-attribute purplish-black chakra, which transforms the chakra form to the extreme and is mixed and compressed into an ultra-dense ball in the mouth in a Yin-Yang ratio of 2:8, and then released in one breath.
