A $10 \times 10 \times 10$ cube is made up up from $500$ white unit cubes and $500$ black unit cubes, arranged in such a way that every two unit cubes that shares a face are in different colors. A line is a $1 \times 1 \times 10$ portion of the cube that is parallel to one of cube’s edges. From the initial cube have been removed $100$ unit cubes such that $300$ lines of the cube has exactly one missing cube. Determine if it is possible that the number of removed black unit cubes is divisible by $4$.
