The Third Bloodline Limit

After a moment of reflection, Sasuke took out his spoils of war and discovered that only the A-rank ninjutsu Water Severing Wave was of any use to him.

After putting away the scroll for Water Severing Wave, Sasuke directly used Scorch Release to incinerate everything else that was useless!

To Sasuke, more ninjutsu wasn't necessarily better; he believed that having enough was sufficient. After all, in the later stages, no matter how many ninjutsu you mastered, they were useless without a cheat. Take Kakashi the Copy Ninja, for example—if he hadn't had Obito's Mangekyō, who knows how many times he would have died!

Take Naruto, for instance; he started acting recklessly with just one Rasengan, and that was only because he had the Nine-Tails as a cheat inside him.

After burning the ninjutsu scrolls, Sasuke began to study the so-called Water Severing Wave. Because he had already maxed out his Water Release nature transformation, it only took him half an hour to master it.

Once this ninjutsu appeared on his Water Release panel, Sasuke naturally used his universal proficiency points to max it out immediately.

Having resolved these matters, Sasuke turned his gaze toward the fusion panel. Since he had gained another special fusion opportunity, he was definitely going to stir up some trouble!

Selecting Lightning Release and Water Release, Sasuke spent another special fusion opportunity, preparing to synthesize Storm Release.

Bolts of lightning constantly manifested around Sasuke's body. Unlike other lightning, the electricity surrounding him flowed across his skin like water.

Storm Release: flowing lightning, possessing the terrifying power of Lightning Release and the easy control of Water Release, making it a formidable force in both offense and defense.

After the blue electricity faded, Sasuke looked at the newly appeared Storm Release panel with a subtle expression. After dumping his remaining universal proficiency points into it, he went to sleep!

Today's harvest was already very satisfying, and since he had to act as a hunter for the next month, he naturally needed to get some good rest!

Under Sasuke's hunting, Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Hokage, completely panicked. He dispatched his own squad leader to the back mountains to investigate what was happening, only for Sarutobi Hiruzen to discover with horror that his captain had not returned.

As for the fate of that Anbu captain, it went without saying that he had been taken out by Sasuke. Even if that captain possessed the strength of an elite jōnin, he couldn't survive long in the hands of a Sasuke empowered by Kyōka Suigetsu.

Ever since that Anbu captain was killed, Sarutobi Hiruzen learned his lesson and had Root take over the back mountains. This was a significant loss for Sasuke, as most members of Root were chūnin, which meant a major reduction in potential universal proficiency points for him!

However, Sasuke didn't feel the slightest bit of dissatisfaction. As for the reason? It was naturally because these Root squads were larger than the Anbu ones. If the quality wasn't enough, quantity would make up for it, so in the end, Sasuke didn't lose much.

Compared to Sasuke's "no loss" situation, Shimura Danzō, the scapegoat king of Root, felt as though his entire foundation was being wiped out.

Yet, Danzō was helpless. After all, there wasn't even a single clue about that person, so even if he wanted to settle the score, he didn't know who to target!

On this matter, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzō shared the same sentiment. Since there wasn't even a shred of intelligence—let alone intelligence, they didn't even have the corpses of those Anbu and Root members—it left the two of them depressed to the point of madness!

[Scorch Release: Great Dragon Flame: 9000/9000]

Just as Sarutobi Hiruzen and the scapegoat king Danzō were fretting over the situation in the back mountains of Konoha, Sasuke, the one who caused this series of incidents, was staring intently at the ninjutsu he had just fused.

Because Sasuke had obtained so few Wind Release ninjutsu, he did something rather extravagant: he fused all his other Fire Release ninjutsu, excluding Gōkakyū, and then fused them with his Wind Release ninjutsu. It must be said, the results were quite good.

As for the panel in front of Sasuke, it showed the result of fusing that new ninjutsu with his previous Scorch Release: Dragon Fire. Although it hadn't reached the so-called proficiency cap of 10,000, it had reached a new height.

Reaching the final 10,000 was only a matter of time. After all, when Sasuke defected from Konoha, he could just find any Wind Release ninjutsu and fuse it with Gōkakyū to obtain a second super ninjutsu!

The month-long vacation ended amidst Sasuke's hunting. Regarding the back mountains, Sasuke felt there was nothing left to gain, but the interest he had to collect wasn't finished yet—after all, the Konoha Military Police Force was filled with members of the Sarutobi clan!

These people were a great place to collect debts; after all, they occupied the positions that originally belonged to the Uchiha. Of course, that was just an excuse; what Sasuke truly valued was the golden-glowing universal proficiency points!

During the month of slaughter, Sasuke had upgraded everything on his panel that could be improved, including hand seals.

Unexpectedly, the step after one-handed seals was eye-sealing, which caught Sasuke off guard. Fortunately, he could use universal proficiency points to max it out directly; otherwise, he suspected he might have gone blind from the training before he even awakened his Mangekyō Sharingan.

Now, Sasuke could also achieve the "clap hands and summon whatever" feat. Of course, to prevent this special ability from being exposed, he felt he still needed to perform hand seals, but that wasn't a hassle since he currently only needed seals for Gōkakyū.

As for Water Release ninjutsu, Sasuke didn't want to expose his ability to use it just yet. After all, his Lightning Release would definitely be exposed later, as he wanted to learn Kakashi's Chidori and Lightning Blade, and then develop Chidori Current.

Although Sasuke could develop new ninjutsu based on the memories of his past life, doing so would expose his true strength, which would be of no benefit to his future plans. After all, Sasuke still wanted to give the Third Hokage a massive reversal!

Currently, besides his Sharingan, Sasuke possessed Scorch Release and Storm Release, but he still wanted to fuse Ice Release.

Of course, the matter of fusing Ice Release would have to be put on hold. Sasuke's current strength was at least that of an elite jōnin, even if not quite Kage-level. If he used that final special fusion opportunity now, he would definitely reach Kage-level combat power, but his chakra reserves were another matter. After all, Sasuke didn't know which Kage the system's "Kage-level chakra" corresponded to. If it were Senju Hashirama, that would be a huge problem!

Therefore, to ensure that he could evolve into an Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan shortly after awakening his Mangekyō, Sasuke felt it was better to save that last special fusion opportunity!

Heavy losses for Anbu and Root, Storm Release born for the Uchiha.
