Drawing (Part One)

Hyuga Shin launched into a furious rant in his mind.

Chapter 3: Drawing (Part One)

"System, leave only the things from the Naruto world and block out everything else," Hyuga Shin said.

The store panel refreshed again. All the assorted junk disappeared, leaving only things from the Naruto world.

After browsing, Hyuga Shin found that with just thirty thousand exchange points, he could buy at most B-rank ninjutsu, such as Shadow Clone Jutsu, Fire Style: Searing Migraine, and Lightning Style: False Darkness.

He didn't see a single A-rank jutsu, let alone an S-rank one.

Hyuga Shin felt a little disappointed. There didn't seem to be anything particularly powerful.

Really, he was being too greedy. B-rank jutsu were generally only available to elite jonin, so they were already pretty good.

Hyuga Shin scanned the selection, then started looking farther down. He wasn't after any particular jutsu. What would help him most right now was the Chakra Refinement Technique.

Farther down, Hyuga Shin finally found the Chakra Refinement Technique. Although it was the foundation of being a ninja, it didn't cost many exchange points.

It only cost a thousand exchange points, so Hyuga Shin bought it.

He knew his clan would give it to him eventually, but that wouldn't happen until a year from now. He didn't want to waste a whole year.

After buying the Chakra Refinement Technique, Hyuga Shin looked around and found nothing else worth purchasing. For now, the technique was all he needed.

But after thinking it over, he still spent ten thousand exchange points on the Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique.

Although it was a C-rank jutsu, its power was nothing to scoff at. With enough chakra, it could even reach the power of a B-rank jutsu, making it a pretty good deal.

After making the purchase, Hyuga Shin closed the System Store and looked at the lottery page.

Hyuga Shin reached out and tapped it. A large wheel appeared in front of him, with the words "Start Lottery" written in the middle.

Hyuga Shin glanced at the bottom and saw that he had three lottery draws.

He raised his eyebrows, then asked the system, "System, did you give me these three draws?"

[Yes! The system gives you one lottery draw and ten thousand exchange points every year.]

The system replied in its mechanical voice.

Hyuga Shin raised his eyebrows again, then asked, "How can I get exchange points and more lottery draws?"

The system fell silent again, offering no answer. Hyuga Shin felt a little helpless.

"Let's draw! There's no point saving them. Whether I'm unlucky or lucky, we'll find out now." Hyuga Shin sighed.

Then he reached out and tapped "Start Lottery."

The moment Hyuga Shin tapped the button, he was pulled into another space. It was dim, with glittering stars hanging overhead.

Eight items appeared on the big wheel, dividing it into eight equal sections.

Hyuga Shin looked at the eight items, and his breathing suddenly quickened.

The first thing that caught his eye was an ancient-looking long sword. Just looking at it made Hyuga Shin feel as though he were being burned to ash.

"Ryujin Jakka! It's actually Ryujin Jakka, Old Man Yamamoto's Zanpakuto! If I can get my hands on it, I'll be able to take on the whole world!"

Hyuga Shin was incredibly excited. This was a sword capable of destroying the world. People might argue over which Zanpakuto was the strongest, but Ryujin Jakka had always ranked near the top and had never fallen out of favor.

Suppressing his excitement, Hyuga Shin looked at the second item. It was another sword, and another Zanpakuto.

But after seeing it, he wasn't very interested. It wasn't that the Zanpakuto was weak; it was just too limited, and it wouldn't be much use in the Naruto world.

This Zanpakuto was Muramasa, once considered the strongest of its kind. But it was only fearsome in the Bleach World. In a world like Naruto, where there were no Zanpakuto, what good would it be?

He looked at the next item: a pair of deep blue eyes. They were somewhat different from Hyuga Shin's Tenseigan.

The Mystic Eyes of Death Perception—no explanation needed.

I wonder if the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception could kill the immortal Kaguya Otsutsuki. Hyuga Shin tilted his head, wondering.

The fourth item was a Devil Fruit, the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, said to be the strongest of the Logia type. Of course, whether it really was the strongest was still up for debate.

But Hyuga Shin didn't want it. It wasn't weak; he was just wary of its weakness to seawater. That drawback would be a huge problem in the Naruto world, and he didn't need to saddle himself with such a weakness.

The last four items were Observation Haki, swordsmanship mastery, Rasengan, and the Navy's Six Powers technique, Shave.

It looked like he was pretty lucky—not an unlucky draw, at least. Earlier, Hyuga Shin had seen that the wheel could contain just about anything, even a matchstick or a wooden stick.

All eight items would be useful to him in some way.

"Jade Emperor, Great Lord of the Dao, please bless me. Let me draw Ryujin Jakka! The Mystic Eyes of Death Perception would be fine too. Please!"

After silently repeating his prayer a few times, Hyuga Shin tapped the start button. The pointer began to spin, moving so fast that he couldn't help but grumble.

"Is this faster than the speed of light? It's spinning so fast—won't it break?"

As Hyuga Shin grumbled, the pointer began to slow down, and he grew nervous along with it.

With Hyuga Shin watching tensely, the pointer passed the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, then the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, before slowly moving toward Ryujin Jakka.

Hyuga Shin jumped up with delight. His luck was unbelievable! Ryujin Jakka was as good as his. With it, he could cut down Madara Uchiha, Kaguya Otsutsuki, and anyone else with a single stroke.

But experience told him not to celebrate too soon. The universe always had a way of knocking you down when you were feeling your most triumphant.

As Hyuga Shin watched in dismay, the pointer passed Ryujin Jakka and landed on the item he considered the worst: Rasengan.

Then the words "Rasengan" disappeared, and knowledge of the technique instantly flooded into Hyuga Shin's mind.

If he had chakra, Hyuga Shin could use the Rasengan right now.

But his face darkened. The Rasengan wasn't bad, but the technique's training method had already been in his mind.

He'd been planning to work out how to make a Rasengan once he had chakra.

Now that he'd drawn the Rasengan, all he'd gained was a little saved time. It wasn't much use to him.

"Ah, well. At least I can save time training. That's not so bad," Hyuga Shin kept telling himself.

He'd already drawn it, and he couldn't return it. What else could he do except try to stay positive? It wasn't as if he could sit there with a long face.

"I still have two chances. It's fine! A European-level lucky guy like me can afford to waste one."

Although his heart was bleeding, he kept a perfectly calm expression and looked at the lottery wheel again.
