SSR Designated Card

Following a series of notifications, Uchiha Ryūha's panel underwent new changes.

[Special Bond "Oath of the White Fang" has been bound: Target Hatake Sakumo possesses an extremely high initial favorability and trust toward the host.

Relationship automatically locked as: Guardian's Vow!]

[Note: When the host faces a lethal crisis, Hatake Sakumo will ignore factions and rules to prioritize the host's safety.

Bond effects can be strengthened as interactions deepen.]

He had no time to attend to the other changes on the panel.

At this moment, all his attention was drawn to the golden numbers constantly jumping in his mind.

Ten thousand Karma Point!

One SSR Designated Gacha Ticket!

And... a sworn protection from a Kage-level powerhouse!

Ryūha's breathing almost stopped in that instant.

One had to know that completing the graduation exam mission with an S-rank rating had only rewarded him a few hundred points.

Defeating Root ninjas, changing Matsumoto Ryūichi's perception, and everything else added up.

Up until now, his total Karma Point balance had been no more than one thousand.

But this time...

A single mission brought in ten thousand!

What kind of concept was this?

Ryūha's consciousness quickly cut into the System Shop interface.

Previously, due to a tight budget, he had only focused on the lowest-level draws.

But now, it was different.

The shop interface unfolded in his consciousness, divided into three main areas:

[R-Rank Card Pool (100 Karma Point per draw, 10% discount for ten draws)]

[Description: Can randomly draw R-rank to SR-rank items, skills, and objects.

90% probability for R, 9.99% for SR, 0.01% for SSR (Pity mechanism: None)]

"Finally, there's a probability display, but having no pity is still too much of a scam."

Uchiha Ryūha felt somewhat helpless.

[Elite Card Pool (1000 Karma Point per draw, no discount)]

[Description: Can randomly draw SR-rank to SSR-rank items, skills, and objects.

70% probability for SR, 29.9% for SSR, 0.1% for UR (Season Limited).

Pity mechanism: Every 10 draws guarantees an SSR or higher.]

[Current pity progress: 0/10]

[Current limited SP item: Hōgyoku. (Advanced recruitment not yet open)]

[Directional Card Pool (2000 Karma Point per draw)]

[Description: Can choose specific attribute fields for directional draws.

Such as "Kido Special", "Zanpakuto Special", "Flash Step/Hand-to-Hand/Kido Comprehensive Special", "Special Constitution Special", etc.

Draw range is limited to the selected field, quality is random (R~SSR).]

[Note: Designated card pools have no pity, but will not draw items outside the field.]

The three card pools each had their own merits.

The regular card pool cost 100 points per draw.

It was suitable for daily accumulation, but the probability of getting good things was extremely low.

Besides, this thing had no pity!

The Elite Card Pool cost 1000 points per draw, meaning ten thousand points for ten draws.

However, the pity mechanism guaranteed at least one SSR—for Uchiha Ryūha, who was in urgent need of high-end combat power, this was undoubtedly the most cost-effective choice.

As for the Directional Card Pool...

At 2000 points per draw, the price was expensive.

He would leave that for later.

However, if he were in urgent need of a specific type of ability, such as higher-level Kido, new Zanpakuto abilities, or a special constitution, this would be the only choice.

Ryūha now held ten thousand points in his hands, plus his previous balance of 1000, bringing his total to 11,000 points!

This meant he could perform--

One Elite ten-draw (10,000 points), guaranteeing one SSR.

The standard gacha pool is definitely a no-go.

Based on Uchiha Ryūha's past-life experience, these pools without a pity system are always bottomless pits.

Rationally speaking, the elite ten-pull offers the best value.

But...

Uchiha Ryūha's gaze fell upon his inventory.

Resting there, quietly suspended and radiating a seven-colored flow of light, was a single card.

[SSR Card Selection Ticket]

[Description: Upon use, you may specify any character from the Bleach universe and directly obtain their core ability as a reward.

The scope of selection includes, but is not limited to: Zanpakuto (Shikai/Bankai), Vollständig, final Quincy forms, Hollowfication abilities, special Kido talents, etc.]

[Note 1: The specified ability will automatically adapt to the host's current energy system (Reiatsu), requiring no additional conversion.]

[Note 2: If the specified ability possesses multiple forms or stages of growth (such as Zanpakuto Bankai), the corresponding stage will be unlocked based on the host's current strength. Higher forms can be unlocked later through compatibility growth or special missions.]

[Note 3: Each character may only be selected once; please choose carefully.]

[Use immediately?]

Uchiha Ryūha stared at the description, his breathing quickening once more.

Specify... any character's core ability!

Aizen Sōsuke's Kyōka Suigetsu.

He already possessed the Shikai, but he could specify the Bankai.

Although Aizen Sōsuke's Bankai was never revealed in either the anime or the manga, the fact that the system allowed it meant it could be specified!

Yamamoto Genryūsai Shigekuni's Ryūjin Jakka!

The strongest fire-type Zanpakuto, whose Bankai, Zanka no Tachi, possessed the power to destroy the Soul Society.

Zaraki Kenpachi's wild combat instincts and the potential for infinite Reiatsu growth.

Kuchiki Byakuya's Senbonzakura, whose Bankai, Senbonzakura Kageyoshi, integrated both offense and defense.

Ichimaru Gin's Shinso, with its extreme extension and one-hit-kill capability.

Hitsugaya Tōshirō's Hyōrinmaru, the strongest ice-type Zanpakuto!

Or even... Yhwach's The Almighty?

No, that likely exceeded the SSR category, but what about a Schrift ability?

Or perhaps the Quincy's Blut, specifically Blut Vene?

The Hollow's High-Speed Regeneration?

The Arrancar's Resurrecion?

There were too many!

The Bleach world was filled with countless powerful abilities, any one of which could stir up a tempest in the Hokage world!

And now, he could specify any one of these abilities and obtain it directly.

The temptation was enough to drive anyone mad.

Uchiha Ryūha closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

Calm down.

He had to stay calm.

This selection ticket was far too precious to be wasted.

He already possessed Kyōka Suigetsu, the strongest illusion-type Zanpakuto with infinite potential.

Flash Step provided ghostly mobility.

Red Fire Cannon served as a mid-range attack.

His shortcomings were clear: a lack of decisive, large-scale finishing moves.

He lacked defensive measures, sustained endurance for long battles, and the ability to handle large-scale combat scenarios.

Therefore, his choice should focus on patching these weaknesses.

Uchiha Ryūha's brain raced at high speed.

On the offensive side, Ryūjin Jakka, Senbonzakura, Shinso, and Hyōrinmaru were all top-tier choices.

However, Ryūjin Jakka and Hyōrinmaru were elemental attacks, which might be countered or mimicked by corresponding elemental Ninjutsu in the Hokage world.

Besides, given the sheer power of Ryūjin Jakka, it was unlikely to be a mere SSR; it would at least be a UR.

Senbonzakura and Shinso leaned more toward physical and rule-based attacks, making them much harder to defend against.

Defensive side: Blut/Blut Vene, High-Speed Regeneration, and even the healing ability of Unohana Retsu's Zanpakuto, Minazuki.

These are all excellent guarantees for survival.

Special abilities: Aizen's Complete Hypnosis is already special enough, but there are also multi-functional Zanpakuto like Yhwach's The Almighty or Urahara Kisuke's Benihime.

Or rule-based abilities like Hyōsube Ichibē's Ichimonji, which possess immeasurable strategic value.

And then there is... growth potential.

The trait of Zaraki Kenpachi, who grows stronger through constant battle, is practically a cheat among cheats in a world as combat-heavy as the Hokage world.

However, Zaraki Kenpachi's fighting style relies too heavily on instinct and physique, which does not quite fit the "mastermind behind the scenes" path that Uchiha Ryūha intends to take.

Option after option flashed through his mind, only to be set aside one by one for the time being.

This designation ticket must be used where it counts most.

It seems... I need to plan this out carefully.

Uchiha Ryūha opened his eyes, the golden stream of data in his pupils slowly dissipating, returning to a calm, deep brown.

He adjusted his glasses, forcibly suppressing the wild joy and excitement in his heart.

Now is not the time to make a decision.

The Kage-level aura that the White Fang of the Leaf just unleashed has already broken through the barrier of Kyōka Suigetsu.

Outside, there are still Anbu waiting.
