Chapter 28
"Nothing," Nambu answered trying to keep the surprise out of his voice. "All tests came back negative. There is absolutely no abnormal brain activity."
"What??" the Swan and Condor cried out in shock together.
"Yes, perfectly normal. This is most unsettling." Nambu continued.
Jun suddenly had a thought. "Hakase, the neural compound was gaseous. What if it caused some sort of chemical reaction in their brains? Maybe something that wouldn't change their actual brain waves, but change the biological make-up instead?"
Nambu looked at Jun. "Jun, you may be right. Who knows what that compound was made of? Galactor may have even produced a new chemical that we have never seen before."
A cold chill ran down Jun's spine. If this was a some sort of new Galactor invention, no one outside of the Syndicate would know anything about it. What if this - chemical - couldn't be eradicated from Ken, Ryu, and Jinpe's bodies? What would happen to them?
"The microchip!" Joe suddenly blurted out. "Galactor must have the chemical properties on it along with how to reverse the effects."
Nambu looked at Joe and Jun, a determined expression on his face.
"Joe, Jun, I'm giving you a mission. You're to return to that Galactor base and find the microchip. Do whatever you need to get it and bring it back here. You're teammates lives may depend on it."
"Roger!" the ninjas saluted in unison.
