Foundations

- And one last thing. Still no news about the Five Treasures of the Sage of the Six Paths? - added in the end Danzo.

Ryu shook his head silently.

- Well, that's it then. For this and the next two days you are completely free. - Danzo released him.

Even if Danzō considered himself quite strong at this point in time, it didn't mean that he was reckless.

After his defeat at the hands of the Raikage, Danzō began looking for ways to improve his powers in addition to his own development. More specifically, various weapons and artifacts.

"Soon, the crow from Takumi Village should be back. There's simply no reason for them to refuse my offer..."

Danzō wouldn't have remembered this Village if he hadn't stumbled across the weapons vendors from that village while walking through the market.

Recalling the power of their artifacts, he arranged with them that they would sell one of their legendary items, the Unbreakable Soaring Short Swords, in exchange for the Anbu purchasing weapons and mission equipment from their village alone for 15 years, well and a purely symbolic payment of several million Ryo.

True, Danzo notably threw them with this, since only the Root, which was part of the Anbu, mostly only on paper, will be purchased from them. With this, in addition to benefiting Root, Danzō would also gain powerful weaponry, greatly enhancing him as a Wind Release user.

"Information about my tricks with Hiruzen was supposed to reach everyone, so I doubt that this small Village will have any questions or suspicions… Heh, Wind Blades will be a great help for me for a long time."

The Indestructible Floating Short Swords, which Danzō had already mentally renamed Wind Blades, greatly reduced the Chakra cost of Wind Release and even buffed them a bit. For Danzo, who, though not the most common, but still a shinobi, such weapons helped to maximize his strength!

"The problem with the equipment is most likely partially resolved, but Cornu still lacks a supplier of Explosive Seals and medical supplies..."

At the moment, even the Anbu didn't give much thought to medical supplies other than the simplest things like bandages and tourniquets.

What can we say about Iryoninjutsu, whose state cannot be called anything other than rudimentary.

Among all Konoha shinobi, less than 1% owned at least one technique of Iryoninjutsu and often, this could only be useful for the rapid healing of minor wounds and scratches, but not for serious injuries.

- So, it's time to get to work… - Danzō said in a heavy tone, his hand towering over a large scroll.

"The body of a person and any living creature is a complex system that can be divided into 4 levels in general: cellular, tissue, organ and organismic. Cells are small particles, smaller than a speck of dust, that make up the body of living beings. They are essentially are incredibly diverse and it is they that contain what parents pass on to their children.And it is the differences in them that create the most colossal difference between two living beings.Suppose, what is the difference between an ordinary person, Uchiha and Hyuga?And the fact that they consist of similar , but in some way very different cells..."

Mixing all his knowledge of Biology for grades 5-11 with the world of Naruto, Danzō smoothly built what could be called the Theoretical Foundations of Iryōninjutsu.

"At the level of organisms, diversity and variation also persist. Even though some twins are made up of the same cells, the same set of organs and everything, their differences will become more and more pronounced over the course of their lives. It could be noticeable by the different body structure, which appeared due to slight differences in conditions.Some of them may be smarter than the other, and some stronger.It all depends on the conditions of life, such as nutrition, sunlight, physical loads..."

After finishing writing, Danzō almost collapsed from fatigue on his desk, but he restrained himself and put the scroll in his closet, after which he hurried to his home.
