Bloodline Fusion! Uzumaki Bloodline!
"Any questions? Then let's begin the mission!" The Third Hokage nodded.
Immediately afterwards, Shiyu, Minato Namikaze, and Kakashi set off from Konoha, traveling a great distance to the Land of Wind.
The Land of Wind is located in the southwest of the Ninja Continent. Although its land area ranks first among the Five Great Nations, the land is barren and there are many deserts. Many people starve to death due to lack of food. After the Second Shinobi World War, the Third Kazekage of Sunagakure worked hard to stabilize the Sunagakure.
After several days of traveling at full speed, Shiyu and the others had arrived in the desert of the Land of Wind.
"Our destination this time is Rōran, a mysterious and independent country. Teacher Shiyu Rōran, what are your plans?" Minato Namikaze discussed with Shiyu as they traveled.
"We'll probably have to infiltrate Rōran first and investigate thoroughly before we can find out." Shiyu moment, since he needed to confirm things with his own eyes before he could make a proper judgment. Knowing the plot in advance could only serve as a reference.
"In that case, Kakashi will provide backup, and the two of us will infiltrate first." Minato Namikaze and Shiyu had already discussed their strategy in advance.
Despite the arduous journey, we fortunately encountered no danger.
As night fell, Shiyu and his two companions set up camp, intending to rest for the night before continuing their journey.
At that moment, the voice that Shiyu had been longing for rang out once again.
"Host, I'm back! Host, you actually absorbed so much bloodline power?"
Shiyu was also startled and replied, "Is it the system?"
"Yes! Last time, I fused the bloodline of the Otsutsuki branch of the Kaguya Clan, with you, allowing you to use the Shikotsumyaku). I still owe you a bloodline enhancement, but who would have thought that you would now absorb the bloodline power of the Uzumaki Clan? It seems quite pure!"
"This Uzumaki bloodline contains the Asura's power! So, do you want me to strengthen my bloodline this time? Or continue to fuse with the Otsutsuki branch bloodline— the Uzumaki bloodline?" the system asked.
Shiyu suppressed her excitement and asked calmly, "Having fused with the Uzumaki bloodline? Will I be asleep for a long time?"
"Comparatively speaking, fusing bloodlines will cause you to sleep for several hours, while strengthening bloodlines will cause you to sleep for at least a day. Based on your current situation, I still recommend that you fuse bloodlines," the system replied truthfully.
"In that case, I'll merge them!"
"Wait a minute." The system's voice also sounded somewhat surprised, "Have you absorbed the bloodline power of Tailed Beast?"
"Really? Is there a problem?" Shiyu asked, somewhat surprised.
No! You're so lucky!
The system then began to explain, "Even the Otsutsuki can only possess super combat power after consuming Chakra Fruit."
"In other words, if you ultimately want to become the strongest, you must absorb and fuse with the Ten-Tails' bloodline power. Only then will you become the strongest, surpassing even the Otsutsuki."
"And now you are able to absorb the bloodline power of the Nine-Tails! It's like planting a chakra seed in your own body. When the chakra seeds of the Nine Tailed Beasts mature, you only need to obtain the body of the Ten-Tails to become the new Ten-Tails Jinchuriki."
Shiyu, and the gist of it was that he didn't need to take the lives of the Tailed Beasts like Akatsuki did; he only needed to touch the Jinchuriki's body to obtain a portion of the Tailed Beast's bloodline power.
Once the bloodlines of the Nine Tailed Beasts are gathered, touching the body of the Ten-Tails, namely the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, will allow you to absorb its bloodline.
At that time, I will possess Ten-Tails different from the one in the original story! And I will be the new Ten-Tails Jinchuriki!
If Shiyu were to acquire the power of other branches of the Otsutsuki by then, what level would he ultimately reach? That remains to be seen.
"In that case, I'd like to ask, will taking someone else's bloodline cause them any harm?" Shiyu asked.
"On the contrary, your interactions with others are actually an exchange; they not only don't suffer harm, but they also gain certain benefits."
"You give others chakra and life force, and they give you the bloodline power that I can absorb for you. Of course, what you give each other is just a drop in the ocean."
"So that's how it is. I can absorb the pure bloodline power from both the living and the dead. This bloodline power can give me different abilities. Bloodline powers of the same strength will strengthen each other, right?" Shiyu finally understood what the system was saying.
"Ready. Let's fuse!" Shiyu said to the system.
"Alright! After the fusion, I will fall into a deep sleep again, hoping that the host can continue to grow stronger and accumulate enough bloodline power to awaken me." After the system finished speaking, it began the bloodline fusion.
Kushina and Mito's bloodline power was only temporarily stored in Shiyu's body and had not yet merged with Shiyu's own bloodline. It is only now, due to the system, that it has begun to slowly merge.
"When the cells weren't strong before, it might have been fusion; now it seems like the cells in my body are engulfing other cells."
Shiyu felt perfectly fine, and the better he felt, the deeper and deeper he slept. He didn't know how much time had passed Shiyu he woke up and found that it was already broad daylight and Minato Namikaze was ready.
"Finally awake. Teacher Shiyu, I wouldn't know what to do if you hadn't woken up," Minato said with a smile.
"Sorry, sorry. I just increased my own power a little," Shiyu said, scratching his head sheepishly.
Minato didn't take it seriously. "Let's go! We still have a long way to go."
"What is this feeling?" Shiyu was shocked.
Shiyu discovered that even without using the White Rinnegan, he could clearly sense everything around him.
"Kakashi is not far ahead. It seems Kakashi was accidentally swallowed by quicksand," Shigure immediately added.
"What did you say!" Minato Namikaze was also startled, but knowing Shiyu, he knew that Shiyu were not baseless. Then, with a whoosh, he disappeared, and then with another whoosh, he reappeared in front of Shiyu, holding Kakashi.
"That was close! Luckily, I had the Flying Thunder God Kunai I gave you."
"Minato-sensei, how did you know I was in an accident?" Kakashi asked, equally bewildered.
Minato exclaimed in shock, "It wasn't me who knew, it was Teacher Shiyu who knew!"
Shiyu smiled and shook her head, "Um... didn't I say I gained a new ability?"
"So... you became a perception-type person after taking a nap?"
Shiyu didn't offer any explanation, Minato and Kakashi, aside from expressing surprise, didn't ask any further questions, since everyone has their own secrets.
Besides, the perceptive type isn't exactly a rare or outrageous type.
I don't know how much longer it will take to reach Rōran.
Did a country called Rōran really exist?
Minato, Kakashi, it seems we've arrived...
