Swallowing the Uchiha and Hyuga Bloodlines
Shiyu acted completely innocent and didn't argue with them.
"Well, then forget I said anything! You'd better raise three hundred million taels for me right now."
Shiyu naturally knew that no matter how wealthy the Uchiha Clan was, they probably couldn't possibly hand over that much money to Shiyu within three days.
"Raising 300 million might be difficult. Fugaku was also somewhat embarrassed. As the vice-clan head, he naturally knew the situation within the clan: 'It seems we have no other choice.'"
"Then we can raise the money first, and then invite you to develop the potential, right?" Fugaku suddenly realized the crux of the problem.
Shiyu then said, "Sure, but I'm very busy. I'm going to do eight or ten S-rank mission tomorrow, and I won't be back to Konoha for five or eight years. By the time you've raised the money, I'll probably be gone."
"You... you're clearly trying to trick us?!" Even Fugaku understood Shiyu's purpose.
"How can this be called a scam? First, my interest rate doesn't reach the standard of usury; it's just normal lending. Second, you owe me money, so I'm letting you consume first and pay in installments—I'm considering your needs. Third, it's all voluntary. If you don't want to unlock potential, then forget it. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
Shiyu made his point very clearly, and although it sounded very fair and reasonable, it was actually a scheme to harm the Uchiha.
Konoha does have a bank nowadays, but its business is quite primitive. Apart from issuing the paper money used in the Land of Fire, it mainly deals with deposits and withdrawals. As for lending? Not even in the Land of Fire, or any other country.
If even Fugaku and Yoshitoki could figure it out, Masamune could naturally think of it too.
However, despite his understanding, the fact remained that he didn't have 300 million taels, leaving Masamune with no choice but to agree.
"Let's sign the agreement." Shiyu then signed the agreement, and Masamune, after reviewing it and finding no problems, also signed it.
"So what about the second thing? How should we handle it?" Shiyu asked directly.
"What else can we do? We'll do it your way. We'll restore your father's honor, and his name will be on the Uchiha Memorial Stone. Your father will also become an honorary elder of the Uchiha Clan. Is that enough?" Masamune asked.
"Okay." Shiyu nodded in satisfaction.
"I've accepted the last thing: all past grievances are wiped clean! I forbid any Uchiha Clan member from causing you, Shiyu, any who do so will be dealt with according to the clan rules! Secondly, the Uchiha Clan owes you Shiyu, a great favor! We will definitely help you in any way we can in the future."
Masamune chose to back down because Shiyu's ability to unleash potential was simply too extraordinary. In just that short time, he could sense that quite a few people had already broken through their own bottlenecks.
Some people even directly broke through from Two Tomoe to Three Tomoe.
In order to make the Uchiha Clan even stronger, Masamune naturally chose to agree to Shiyu's conditions.
Shiyu nodded in satisfaction, feeling that his trip had been worthwhile. After discussing it with Shiyu, he returned home with his 100 million ryo and the installment agreement with the Uchiha.
In the following days, a large number of Uchiha visited, and Shiyu absorbed the bloodline of each of Uchiha, unleashing their potential. Shiyu also saw Obito and absorbed Obito's bloodline power. Both sides benefited greatly.
"It's finally over!" Shiyu had been incredibly busy these past few days before finally calling out to the system.
"System, system, are you there?"
"Yes, host! I'm not asleep!"
"Could you help me fuse with the power of my bloodline now? I absorbed quite a bit of bloodline power this time!"
"Wait a moment, host. Detecting... My God! How much bloodline have you absorbed?!" Even the system was astonished.
Shiyu smiled and said, "So, can you say I'm going to be exhausted these next few days? Integrating with the existing new bloodline?"
"Of course, no problem. I can fuse them all at once. Your current bloodline power is almost at the limit your body can handle. If it's any later, I'm afraid you won't be able to withstand it."
"But it's alright now, I can help you fully fuse your bloodlines! This time you'll probably be asleep for a little longer, so please be prepared," the system said.
"Hmm, I understand. After all, I've absorbed so much bloodline. To ensure safety, how about we return to Ryūchi Cave?" Shiyu quickly Hand Seals, and with a whoosh, he returned from Konoha to Ryūchi Cave.
"Snake Sage!" The Three Divine Maidens were extremely respectful, and even the Kamihime who had initially been unfriendly to Shiyu took the initiative to apologize.
Shiyu waved her hand, indicating that she didn't care.
"The White Snake Sage has left, hasn't he? I'm about to break through to the next level, can you protect me?" Shiyu asked.
"No problem!" The Three Divine Maidens, as Shiyu's subordinates, are absolutely loyal.
Shiyu then said to the system, "System, I'm ready! Let's begin the bloodline fusion!"
Shiyu could vaguely sense that this bloodline fusion would likely bring about significant changes in him.
"Okay! Start merging! 3! 2! 1!"
The system's voice faded into the distance, and Shiyu instantly fell into a deep sleep, or rather, a coma.
Shiyu collapsed, her whole body began to burn with fever, much to the surprise of the Three Divine Maidens, who thought Shiyu had gone mad.
Meanwhile, within Shiyu's body, a large number of Otsutsuki cells began to assimilate the cells they had previously absorbed, including those from the Uchiha Clan and Hyuga Clan.
One inherited the power of Otsutsuki Indra, and the other inherited the power of Hamura Otsutsuki and Kaguya.
There was also a small cell, which belonged to Naruto in the future and had been completely absorbed by Shiyu, since Shiyu already possessed the bloodline of the Uzumaki Clan.
Although the numerous Uchiha Clan cells were all different, they were all the purest part. They were first assimilated, and after the assimilation was completed, the Hyuga Clan cells also began to assimilate with each other. In the end Shiyu had three terrifying cellular powers in his body.
However, the cells of the Otsutsuki Shiyu's reign were clearly much stronger.
As the strongest Otsutsuki cell, it naturally devoured the Hyuga Uchiha cells very quickly.
However, it wasn't all smooth sailing; the backlash was strong! But this also shows the special and powerful nature of the Hyuga and Uchiha forces. Although they are branches of the Otsutsuki clan, they have already developed their own unique characteristics.
After absorbing the bloodlines of Naruto, Hyuga, and Uchiha, Shiyu withstood the backlash thanks to his own constitution. Shiyu profusely, Shigure's body temperature gradually dropped.
It seems she has adapted to everything now. She doesn't know how much time has passed, Shiyu can sense that the whole world is different now.
Even with my eyes closed, I could still perceive everything around me.
