Reincarnation Paradise Park-Chapter 576 - 64: No.1 Potion
Three days later, in a forest surrounding Konoha Village, inside an underground laboratory.
Su Xiao had been stationed in this laboratory for about two days, and a large number of test tubes, beakers, and documents were placed on the experiment table in front of him.
The location of this laboratory was provided by Orochimaru. As a return favor, Su Xiao announced to the public that Orochimaru was dead.
More precisely, in a certain sense, Orochimaru could be considered dead; however, he could resurrect himself. This great scientist had a self-revival ability, and unless all curse mark holders were killed, Orochimaru would never truly die.
Inside the laboratory.
"Hashirama cells have such capabilities..."
Su Xiao shook the test tube in his hand, inside which a light green liquid gradually changed color, shifting from light green to light yellow.
His eyebrows twitched; if the liquid in the test tube turned completely yellow, it would mean the Wood Release component of the Hashirama cells had been completely removed.
Just as Su Xiao thought he was about to succeed, the already light yellow liquid gradually reverted to light green, and several small seedlings crazily grew inside the liquid, breaking the test tube with a crisp sound.
Failed.
Su Xiao picked up a diary beside him and recorded a line of text.
’The 1063rd experiment failed; more than 90% of the Wood Release component of the Hashirama cells has been removed. Failure reason: The original Hashirama cell activity is extremely strong.’
Throwing down the pen in his hand, Su Xiao leaned back in his seat.
"What exactly is the reason? What is the Wood Release exactly, and what is its specific structure? Is it simply the combination of nature changes in water attribute chakra and earth attribute chakra? Absolutely impossible."
There were many ninja in the Naruto world mastering water and earth attribute changes, but none of these individuals ever exhibited Wood Release abilities.
After some research, Su Xiao had a slight understanding of Wood Release: using Wood Release involves several processes: the nature change of earth and water attribute chakra → transforming the two chakras into a life source (very likely enveloping yang attribute chakra internally) → germination → control → shaping, ultimately forming Wood Release.
Su Xiao directly ignored the nature change aspect, as there was no need to research it. As for transforming chakra into ’life source,’ he also ignored it. It was too difficult; nothing could be researched in this area without ten years.
Su Xiao felt that the issue lay within the powerful ’life source’ in the Hashirama cells; if he wanted to remove the Wood Release component inside the cells, he also had to eliminate the ’life source’ within.
However, without the ’life source,’ the Hashirama cells were basically useless, possessing only an erosive quality without any other merit.
After some thought, Su Xiao concluded that scientific research might not suit him; it was better to practice sword techniques, as that was his real talent.
"If it can’t be thoroughly analyzed, then simplify!"
Su Xiao decided to extract as much of the Wood Release component from the Hashirama cells as he could manage, then dilute the cells and eventually add them to an Alchemy Potion to make a stronger potion.
As long as the Wood Release components in the Alchemy Potion weren’t too much, after drinking the new potion, the Blue Steel Shadow energy in Su Xiao’s body could annihilate those Wood Release components without any impact.
This way, the new Alchemy Potion became Su Xiao’s exclusive recovery potion. Others couldn’t use it; using it rashly, not only would it not heal injuries, but it would be a miracle to survive.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Su Xiao’s face as he took out some Philosopher’s Stone powder. This was his last stock, capable of replacing the materials needed for special-level Alchemy Potion, enough to make just one bottle.
The chance was only once; if he failed this time, Su Xiao would have to wait until he returned to Reincarnation Paradise to have another opportunity to experiment.
The Philosopher’s Stone flashed with a red light; Su Xiao took an empty test tube, consumed 300 Mana Value to catalyze the materials, and a light flashed in his hand.
A moment later, Su Xiao took a bottle of light green liquid and added it to the nearly finished special-level Alchemy Potion.
Gulu gulu~
A string of bubbles emerged from the semi-finished Alchemy Secret Medicine, and Su Xiao tried his best to stabilize its structure, adding several materials one after another.
To stabilize the structural change of the potion, Su Xiao consumed an additional 100 Mana Value.
After ten minutes, Su Xiao’s forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat; holding a bottle of emerald green potion in his hand, he had succeeded.

Rating: 109
Description: A product of alchemy, semi-finished, needs improvement.
...
It was a success; Su Xiao clenched his fist, feeling inevitably excited inside. This potion combined his knowledge of pharmacology, Orochimaru’s research results, and the First Generation cells. The strong effect was not surprising.
Since this potion was independently produced by Su Xiao, he had the naming rights for this type of potion.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Xiao named the potion [Number One] Potion, simple and easy to understand, indicating that [Number One] Potion would continue to be improved in the future.
Putting away [Number One] Potion, Su Xiao was not worried about the material problem of [Number One] Potion.
He had consulted Reincarnation Paradise; original Hashirama cells could not be replicated, but the diluted solution he made from Hashirama cells could be replicated with Paradise coin, although the cost was slightly high.
[Number One] Potion could not be sold to others, not because it couldn’t be sold, but because no one would buy it, no one dared to try this unstable experimental type of potion, only Su Xiao dared, as it was something he made, he was well aware of the composition and properties, making it his exclusive recovery potion.
Stretching his arms, cracking sounds echoed. He had been researching day and night for two days; it was time to rest a bit.
Finding a relatively clean room in the laboratory, Su Xiao set up the Air Guard and began a deep sleep.
...
Meanwhile, in Konoha Village, underground, inside the Root Organization Headquarters.
An old man sat on a stone chair, two intersecting scars beneath his chin, bandages wrapped around his head, covering his right eye.
"Fu, how goes the search."
The old man’s voice was low, seemingly blending with the darkness.
Whoosh, a shadow appeared not far from the old man, kneeling on one knee.
"Lord Danzo, it has been located; the person has entered an underground laboratory and has not been seen for two days."
"Two days, huh? Being able to find a laboratory near Konoha suggests he has connections with Orochimaru."
Danzo in the dark was expressionless, seemingly contemplating something.
"I heard, Itachi is dead?"
"Yes."
"Killed by Uchiha Sasuke?"
"Yes."
This question and answer revealed the Root’s style; no unnecessary words, Danzo asked, and his subordinates answered.
"Uchiha Sasuke killing Uchiha Itachi, laughable to the extreme."
Danzo rarely let out a cold laugh.
"The two brothers have decided life and death, so the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan is about to emerge."
Danzo said no more; Fu had understood Danzo’s intention.
"Shall we act now, Lord Danzo?"
"No, the time is not right; we should first go to see that ’guest.’ After that person appeared, I felt a special aura appear."
Danzo glanced at his right arm, which was filled with Hashirama cells, thus allowing him to sense more refined Hashirama cells, which was the reason Danzo could discover Su Xiao.
