"Three months have passed; it's time to fuse bloodlines."
While developing the Shinobi Village, Shiyu naturally did not neglect his usual training. Now that three months have passed and the Shinobi Village's development is fully on track, Shiyu informed the village's higher-ups that he was going into seclusion.
"I need to improve my strength. This time, I have a feeling it will take at least a year. I'll leave the village to you for now," Shiyu said to his ninja subordinates.
"Lord Shiyu, your strength has already reached this level? Is it possible to improve further?" Everyone knew that Shiyu's strength was already enough to defeat a Kage. Was Shiyu, who was already so strong, not strong enough? Could he possibly become even stronger?!
Shiyu shook his head and said, "Kage Level is just the strongest you can see right now. In this Shinobi World, there are not only beings who surpass Kage Level, but also beings who surpass even Super Kage."
"No way, is there really a power level stronger than Kage Level in this world?" The subordinate ninjas all looked incredulous.
Shiyu smiled faintly and said, "My current strength has already surpassed the Super Kage Level, but so what? We still need to continue to improve. Facing those unknown and mysterious enemies, our strength is naturally far from enough."
"One day in the future, we may very well face an enemy whose strength far surpasses our own. Therefore, I suggest that everyone continue to improve their strength so that we can have a better chance of survival in the future." Shiyu delivered this bombshell message to his subordinates, immediately causing an uproar.
"Don't rush. The strength after Super Kage is still too far away for you. Let's focus on living in the present." Shiyu then said, "Next, I'm going to enhance your strength once again. Please come forward one by one."
Over the past three months, Shiyu has pushed the power of the "star" to its limit. For some reason, Shiyu absorbed the power of the star without suffering any damage to his body.
Shiyu, by utilizing the guiding power of his bloodline, can trigger and activate the opponent's chakra without harming the human body, which undoubtedly greatly benefits the ninjas of Shiyu's Shinobi Village.
After Shiyu activated the chakra of his subordinates one by one, although they could not use chakra to attack or defend, their control over chakra was greatly improved.
"Through the refinement of chakra, Kakuzu, Masamune, and Sayu have now reached the Kage Level. The number of Quasi-Kage and elite Jonin in the village is also increasing. If this continues, it won't be long before the ninja village becomes powerful and a force to be reckoned with in the Shinobi World!"
After entrusting the matter to Shiyu, he immediately went into seclusion. After entering his dark room, Shiyu began to communicate with the system.
"System, I am ready. This time, please be sure to fuse all the bloodlines I have collected."
The system then countered, "No problem. Are you sure you've thought this through? The power of this fusion is far too complex and powerful; I don't know how long it will take your body to complete the fusion."
"Don't worry, even if it takes ten years, I'm ready. Everything is arranged." Shiyu replied.
"Alright! In that case, I will help you fuse all the bloodlines you have absorbed!"
"Ready!? Three! Two! One!" The system's voice disappeared. Shiyu closed her eyes tightly and immediately felt a terrifying power, enough to make her faint, rushing towards her.
Because he had previously absorbed bloodlines, the power of those bloodlines was stored within Shiyu's body. Now, as the Otsutsuki bloodline began to devour and fuse with these bloodlines, it immediately suffered an even stronger backlash.
"This backlash is terrifying. Even I'm almost at my breaking point. And this is just the beginning."
Immediately afterwards, Shiyu felt an even greater pain. Every cell in his body seemed about to explode, and his blood felt as if it contained a deadly poison, causing him to break out in a cold sweat from the pain.
"Ah!" Shiyu couldn't help but cry out in pain; this level of suffering was simply unbearable for a human.
Those thousands of domineering bloodlines were gradually assimilated, devoured, and fused by the Otsutsuki cells within Shiyu's body. Shiyu's Otsutsuki cells also grew stronger little by little.
However, Shiyu had already fallen into a coma.
In his agony, Shiyu seemed to be caught in a dream from which he could not wake up. In his hazy state, Shiyu seemed to have conquered the entire Shinobi World, only to lose his most precious family members in the end.
Whether it's Kurenai Mei Terumi, they both seem to have died at the hands of a villain, Shiyu is powerless to stop them. In the end, Shiyu even kills his own sister, Xiao Xing, with his own hands.
Immediately afterwards Shiyu seemed to see the face of a mysterious woman.
"Huh? Why are you here?" Shiyu asked.
"Shiyu? You should get up! Don't stay unconscious any longer!" The person in front of him was actually the mysterious Otsutsuki woman, Kagura.
Kagura touched Shiyu's forehead with her index and middle fingers, Shiyu suddenly felt a cool sensation.
However, Shiyu immediately became fully awake within the dream.
"Kagura Otsutsuki? Where are you?"
The surroundings were already empty. Shiyu then felt an astonishing bloodline merge into her own, and her own bloodline began to devour other bloodlines at an even faster speed.
Shiyu's body gradually turned into white light and disappeared little by little.
Immediately afterwards, Shiyu felt a change in her body. Her eyes quickly began to itch, but in less than half a minute, the discomfort in Shiyu eyes disappeared.
"Wake up, Shiyu finally stood up. The system said weakly, "Host, you have completed the fusion. I should go and rest now. I will appear again."
"Thank you for your help, I feel much better now." Shiyu also thanked the system.
"You were about to die, but suddenly, your own bloodline power became extremely strong, which allowed you to merge with those other bloodlines. I don't know what happened, but your success is not solely my doing."
Shiyu then immediately recalled what had happened in the dream world.
"Could it really be Kagura Otsutsuki?" Shiyu shook his head slightly, putting the matter aside for the time being.
"The 'I'm Going' system then fell into a deep sleep."
Shiyu sat cross-legged once more. Suddenly, Shiyu closed her pale blue eyes tightly, then immediately opened them, and her eyes instantly changed.
Shiyu's eyes were still light blue, but in addition to the light blue, there were layers of black ripples on them, and on the ripples were six black Tomoe.
