Because you never know what you might draw, trying to use the lottery as an emergency fix is simply impossible.
Hyuga Shin skillfully clicked the draw button; having already drawn five times, he was quite the veteran.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Seven prizes appeared: the Red Shovel from the game CF, the Golden Wing Pistol from ZT, the Grenade Launcher from GunZ, a T-Virus Serum, Hado #90: Black Coffin, the Zanpakuto Ryujin Jakka, and the Armor Hero Flame Dragon Summoner.
Seeing the prizes, Hyuga Shin really wanted to complain—were that red shovel and the summoner there just for laughs?
Hyuga Shin remembered that to summon the armor, the most important thing wasn't the summoner, but the Light and Shadow Stone! Was he supposed to keep this thing as a collectible after drawing it?
As for dangerous things like the T-Virus, Hyuga Shin didn't want to touch them, and he felt nothing for the pistol or the grenade launcher.
"The system's lottery is truly all-encompassing. Let's just draw!"
After a tap, Hyuga Shin began to wait for the result. Finally, to his anticipation, the pointer landed on Hado #90: Black Coffin.
"Not bad, not bad! It seems my luck is on the rise. Let's keep drawing."
Seeing that he had drawn Black Coffin, Hyuga Shin was overjoyed; this was definitely the second-best prize among the seven.
He clicked again, and seven more items appeared: Hiten Mitsurugi-ryu, Eight Trigrams: Mountain Crushing Strike, the Naruto game skill Eight Trigrams: 361 Style, Limbo: Border Jail, the Tremor-Tremor Fruit (Perfect), Conqueror's Haki, and Ea.
The items this time were even better than the last. Hyuga Shin didn't waste any words and started the draw immediately.
In the end, he drew Eight Trigrams: Mountain Crushing Strike. This could be considered the strongest offensive taijutsu of the Hyuga Clan, though it wasn't of much use to Hyuga Shin, as its capabilities overlapped with the Glint-Glint Fruit.
Although he wasn't entirely satisfied, there was nothing he could do once it was drawn; he couldn't exactly return it.
If he really could return it, Hyuga Shin would have done so, but unfortunately, he couldn't.
"Forget it, regardless, it's a taijutsu capable of shattering a mountain. Even if it's a small mountain, a small mountain is still a mountain!"
He clicked to draw again. This time, the prizes that appeared were the fewest Hyuga Shin had ever encountered—only three in total.
The number of prizes in Hyuga Shin's system lottery had no pattern and was completely random; he remembered the most he had ever seen was over a dozen.
However, although there were only three, the quality was outrageously high.
These three items were: Saitama's strength, the Zanpakuto Ryujin Jakka, and the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.
These three all belonged to the category of abilities that could instantly kill heaven, earth, and air. No matter which one it was, Hyuga Shin could accept it.
"I just don't know if I'll go bald or have other defects if I draw Saitama's power!" Hyuga Shin worried slightly.
Although Saitama gained invincible power, he also lost the most precious things. Hair was a minor issue, but the loss of emotion was the real tragedy.
While Hyuga Shin loved power, he didn't want to lose certain emotional aspects of himself; that was a price he absolutely did not want to pay.
With a nervous heart, Hyuga Shin tapped the lottery page. The pointer spun rapidly, and finally, under his gaze, it stopped on the Zanpakuto Ryujin Jakka.
Hyuga Shin let out a complete sigh of relief. Looking at the katana floating before him, he quickly grabbed it.
The blade was 140cm long with a 30cm hilt. It was quite different from Old Man Yamamoto's Ryujin Jakka. Holding the 170cm long sword in his hand, Hyuga Shin looked a bit ridiculous.
It was still a bit too early for Hyuga Shin to use Ryujin Jakka; he was too short, and even drawing the sword was difficult.
However, this could not hide the excitement in Hyuga Shin's heart. As long as he could Bankai Ryujin Jakka, he could absolutely sweep across the entire ninja world.
But achieving Bankai wouldn't be easy, especially with this strongest fire-type Zanpakuto.
As Hyuga Shin held Ryujin Jakka, his soul underwent a slight change. Ryujin Jakka connected directly to his soul, binding them together.
Hyuga Shin looked at Ryujin Jakka and felt that the blade had become a part of his body, allowing him to control it with ease.
"But how do I Shikai Ryujin Jakka?" Hyuga Shin scratched his head in frustration.
The greatest strength of a Zanpakuto lies in its Shikai and Bankai; otherwise, it's just an incredibly sharp blade—valuable, but not a divine weapon.
"Forget it, I'll think about it later! I've already obtained Ryujin Jakka; I don't believe I won't be able to Shikai it in the future." Placing Ryujin Jakka into his system inventory, Hyuga Shin left the System Space.
Lying on his bed, looking at the bright moonlight outside, Hyuga Shin suffered from insomnia at this moment.
The surprise this time was too great. Whether it was Hado #90: Black Coffin or the Zanpakuto Ryujin Jakka, both left him incredibly excited.
Black Coffin alone would have been fine—it was just a powerful skill—but Ryujin Jakka was different.
He remembered the last time he was this excited was when he first obtained the Tenseigan; because he had just been born at the time, Hyuga Shin had been so excited he fainted.
After a long while, Hyuga Shin finally calmed down.
"My mental fortitude is still lacking! Although I obtained Ryujin Jakka, I can't Shikai it yet, so it doesn't actually increase my strength much," Hyuga Shin said with a wry smile.
He felt he was being a bit dramatic. Although the system had modified him to use Ryujin Jakka directly with chakra, the amount of chakra consumed would certainly not be small.
It was still too early to think about using Ryujin Jakka to destroy the world.
"Sleep! Sleep! I'm like this just from getting Ryujin Jakka; if I get something even stronger in the future, wouldn't I be excited to death?"
Forcing down the excitement in his heart, Hyuga Shin closed his eyes and forced himself into a sleep state.
He still had to let his Shadow Clone practice ninjutsu the next day; if he didn't rest well, he wouldn't be able to train properly.
After resting for the night, Hyuga Shin woke up, but his spirits were still low.
"I really am just a mortal after all." Hyuga Shin smiled, then muttered to himself, "Forget it, I'll take the day off."
He ate a casual breakfast and then headed to the Ninja Academy. Although he tried to suppress the excitement in his heart, Hyuga Shin still couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"You're here early today. Judging by your expression, you seem quite happy! Any good news? Share it with me."
Nawaki slammed a hand onto Hyuga Shin's shoulder.
Hyuga Shin jumped in surprise and retorted irritably, "Do you have any idea how much you scared me?"
"That's because you weren't paying attention. You looked like you'd lost your soul, just standing there with a silly grin on your face."
Chapter 25: Fugaku Uchiha
"Shin, Nawaki, what are you two doing standing at the school gate?" The Ino-Shika-Cho trio walked over.
"It's this guy, Shin. He seems to have gone silly with happiness over something."
"You're the one who's silly!" Hyuga Shin reached out and smacked Nawaki on the head.
"That hurts! You actually hit me! If you knock me stupid, I'll never forgive you," Nawaki said, clutching his head.
"Don't worry! If you get knocked stupid, you won't be able to come looking for trouble anyway."
