Whenever they wanted to study a kagune or kakuhou, they naturally used their own members for research.
Among the six original members, five were ghouls, with only Mo Mo actually being human.
The fact that Mo Mo could stay in this kind of club without being afraid, well, he really had some guts.
And today, it was once again Vice President Suzuki Aoka's turn to have her kagune studied.
"Alright..."
Suzuki Aoka's cheeks flushed with a slight shade of red.
Apparently, letting others examine her kagune was somewhat embarrassing for her.
A pink ukaku sprouted instantly from her tailbone, and she allowed the others to begin studying it.
Mo Mo was the first to go up, daring to touch Suzuki Aoka's ukaku kagune with his bare hands.
The majority of people probably wouldn't dare to do such a thing unless they completely trusted the owner of that Ukaku or were perhaps incredibly stupid.
After all, a casual flick from a ukaku could easily kill a normal person.
As Mo Mo touched her kagune, it was like someone was petting her tail, it was, in a way, an uncomfortable area.
Her face flushed an even deeper red.
However, she didn't seem to mind Mo Mo doing that, nor did she retract her kagune.
As for Byakuya, Eto, and the others, they just watched from the side.
To be blunt, they weren't too interested in this kind of research method. If it were someone like Akihiro Kanou, a proper expert, he definitely wouldn't study a kagune this way.
But since the members of this club were all just students, it was understandable that they would use such a childish approach to study a kagune.
A few minutes later, Mo Mo pulled back his hand and said, "Vice President Suzuki seems to be having a bit of a hard time, let's call it here for today."
"In that case, would you guys like to see my kagune?"
At that moment, Eto asked with a rather cheerful tone.
"If it's alright with you, then we'd be honored."
Mo Mo nodded.
The other members were also extremely curious as to what kind of kagune did the legendary One-Eyed Owl have.
Even though they'd seen the One-Eyed Owl's kakuja form in various media, they had never seen what her actual kagune looked like.
This was the legendary SSS-rated ghoul, the One-Eyed Owl. To witness her kagune with their own eyes, it was an incredible privilege!
Eto then released her kagune.
Because she had numerous kakuhou throughout her body, kagune sprouted from all kinds of places.
Not only were they large in number and surface area, their shapes were also extremely bizarre, so much so that it was hard to distinguish between rinkaku, ukaku, and koukaku forms.
Because kagune shapes can change depending on one's imagination and of course, only a tiny minority of ghouls could pull off what Eto did.
Eto had a wildly rich imagination, which caused her kagune to take on an extremely abstract form.
Her kagune could even speak, as there were numerous mouths growing on it.
"Yaa yaa yaa oo oo oo~"
"Helo~ Hel lo~"
"Nice to meet you~"
"..."
These were all strange sounds produced by Eto's kagune, as if they had a mind of their own.
There was no denying it, Eto's kagune was uniquely extraordinary. No other ghoul had ever pushed the limits of their kagune to such an extent.
"This... this is the One-Eyed Owl's kagune..."
"So incredible..."
It wasn't just Mo Mo, who was human as even the other ghoul members were seeing something new.
Their own kagune were rather ordinary and monotonous. Even added together, they didn't come close to the number and variety of Eto's.
Not to mention that Eto's kagune could even talk.
When they heard the kagune speaking, their expressions became quite remarkable.
They had never heard of a kagune being able to speak. All along, they had simply thought of it as a weapon or a feeding organ.
In fact, in the original work, on the surface, the only one who could do this was Eto.
Later, Kaneki Ken's kagune could also speak, but that was because he had consumed a large number of the One-Eyed Owl's kakuhou.
That said, this kind of feature didn't serve much of a purpose. It was simply that the kagune could speak.
Perhaps, in the later stages, Kaneki Ken or Furuta Nimura could have modified their kagune to do the same even without the One-Eyed Owl's kakuhou, but they probably didn't find it necessary.
As for Eto turning her kagune into this, it was most likely due to her overwhelming loneliness in her younger days.
Not only that, when Eto displayed her kagune, her face also revealed a single kakugan.
"So this is a half-ghoul... it really is just one kakugan."
One of the ghoul girls looked at Eto's single kakugan with fascination.
Compared to her and all the ghouls she knew, who all had two kakugan, this was her first time seeing a one-eyed trait that belonged exclusively to half-ghouls.
After showing them her kagune, Eto quickly retracted it back into her body.
Watching was one thing but she had absolutely no intention of letting anyone research her kagune.
"Minami-chan, aren't you going to show your kagune?"
At that moment, Eto suddenly turned to Minami and said.
"Eh...? Well, I guess I could, but my kagune really isn't anything special."
Minami smiled as she replied.
Because her control over her kagune wasn't nearly as refined as Eto's, she could only utilize her original bikaku-type kagune.
She could now unleash power at the level of a half-kakuja, which meant she must have more than one kakuhou. But she didn't dare reveal the other kagune from those kakuhou.
Because if she did, she would automatically enter a half-kakuja state and in that state, it was very easy for her to lose control and accidentally hurt someone.
Eto, by contrast, had an extremely high level of control over her kagune. Even if she released kagune from multiple kakuhou simultaneously, she wouldn't automatically enter a kakuja state.
Let alone the fact that a kakuja didn't necessarily entail losing rationality.
Minami, who could only reveal a single bikaku-type kagune, really didn't look much different from an ordinary ghoul just by her outward appearance.
However, the color of her kagune was quite lovely, it was a light pink, more or less.
Soon after, Minami retracted her kagune as well. She didn't want to be studied as thoroughly as Vice President Suzuki had been either, it felt a bit too embarrassing.
"Speaking of which, Chairman Uchiha and Dragon General Arima, you're both half-humans, right? So I guess you don't have kagune?"
At this point, one of the ghoul girls looked curiously at Byakuya and Arima and asked.
"Yeah."
Byakuya nodded and replied, "Although Kishou and I are half-human, born from the union of a human and a ghoul, we don't have kagune or kakuhou. Our physical abilities are just a bit stronger than ordinary humans."
