Character Card, Zaraki Kenpachi

The summer of the 42nd year of Konoha seemed even more sweltering than in previous years.

With only one day left until the official start of the Chunin Exams, the entire village was immersed in a subtle atmosphere of excitement and tension.

In every street and alley, the talk was all about topics related to the exams.

On the training grounds, Genin could be seen everywhere, desperately pushing themselves through extra practice.

It felt as if even the air was permeated with a faint scent of gunpowder.

In the Uchiha clan compound, at the exclusive training ground behind the mountain.

Uchiha Ryūha sat cross-legged on a bluestone, eyes closed in concentration.

In his mind, the system panel unfolded, the Karma Point balance displaying an eye-catching figure: 11,000.

This was the massive reward brought about by saving Hatake Sakumo, and it was also the foundation for his upcoming plans.

If I win against a Jonin who suppresses their own strength tomorrow, there probably won't be any Karma Point rewards.

"System," Uchiha Ryūha chanted in his heart, "perform an Elite ten-pull."

[Confirm consumption of 10,000 Karma Point to perform an Elite Card Pool ten-pull?]

"Confirm."

[Received. Card draw initiated--]

Hum!

Within the space of his consciousness, ten brilliant rays of light shot into the sky one after another!

Unlike the single color of the ordinary card pool, the light of the Elite Card Pool was far more resplendent.

The light intertwined and collided in the void, finally transforming into ten cards with mysterious patterns engraved on their backs.

They lined up in a row, hovering before Uchiha Ryūha.

The first card, flip--

[SR #33]

[Description: Intermediate Kido, releases a blast of flame forward.

The power far exceeds Red Fire Cannon, with a wider range, though the incantation time is slightly longer.]

[Quality: Purple]

The second card--

[SR #54]

[Description: Releases high-temperature purple flames, possessing extremely strong adhesion and continuous burning effects, difficult to extinguish.]

[Quality: Purple]

The third card--

[SR #37]

[Description: Summons a hanging light-rope, which can be used to bind enemies or provide defensive cushioning.]

[Quality: Purple]

The fourth card--

[SR #61]

[Description: High-level Kido, summons six giant beams of light to pierce the enemy's body, sealing their movement and Reiatsu (Chakra).

It is considered unsolvable for targets below Kage-level. (Can affect Kage-level targets)]

[Quality: Purple]

The fifth card--

[SR #60 Directions Sealing]

[Description: Area-of-effect sealing Kido, can instantly form a cubic barrier to seal a specific area.

All energy flow (Chakra, natural energy) within the barrier will be forcibly suppressed.

Range and intensity increase with the caster's Reiatsu.]

[Quality: Purple]

Five in a row, all SR-level Kido!

"Although Karma Point are hard to come by, this drop rate is quite high."

Uchiha Ryūha felt somewhat delighted.

What a conscientious card draw system!

The Kido system was broad and profound; previously, he only had the Red Fire Cannon, making his attack methods monotonous.

Now, he had replenished his arsenal with two types of Hado—Sokatsui and Haien—as well as three types of Bakudo—Tsuriboshi, Rikujokoro, and Ten Directions Sealing—instantly enriching his offensive, defensive, and crowd-control capabilities.

Furthermore, these Kido have excellent synergy with his Kyōka Suigetsu—Complete Hypnosis disrupts perception, while Kido provides precise strikes or crowd control, making his combat methods significantly more diverse.

The sixth card flips over—

[R · Kido #4 · Healing Body]

[Description: Basic healing Kido; accelerates wound recovery and alleviates fatigue.

Highly effective for minor injuries.]

[Quality: Blue]

Healing abilities, though only basic, can be incredibly useful in critical moments. Uchiha Ryūha nods.

The seventh—

[SR: Incantation Abandonment]

[Description: A technique that ignores the spoken incantation to shorten the release time of Kido.]

[Quality: Purple]

This is something you might not use, but you can't afford to be without.

Although Uchiha Ryūha has always felt that releasing Kido with incantations has more flair.

The eighth—

[SR · Reiatsu Cultivation Method · Blut Vene (Introductory)]

[Description: A simplified training method for the high-level Quincy defensive technique "Blut Vene."

By condensing Reiatsu (Chakra) onto the body surface through a special method, it forms an invisible armor, greatly enhancing physical defense and resistance to Ninjutsu/Genjutsu.

Mastering it allows one to withstand direct hits from A-rank Ninjutsu.]

[Quality: Purple]

Ryūha's eyes light up!

Blut Vene! This is one of the core defensive skills of the Quincy!

Although it is only an introductory training method and requires time to practice and master.

Once learned, his survivability will see a qualitative leap.

Combined with the illusionary interference of Kyōka Suigetsu and the mobility of Flash Step, he will truly become a "hexagonal warrior" capable of attacking, tanking, and controlling.

The ninth card begins to spin, its radiance significantly more intense than the previous eight—

[SR · Special Item · Hōgyoku Fragment (1/100)]

[Description: Senses the host and amplifies the deepest, most intense desires within the host's heart.

By altering the laws of the world, it forcibly turns wishes into reality; this is a form of "probability manipulation."]

[Quality: Purple (Special)]

"A false joy."

When the words "Hōgyoku" first appeared, Uchiha Ryūha's composure nearly crumbled.

The parenthetical note brought him back to reality.

"Gacha games are a curse; at a rate of one fragment per ten pulls..."

"I feel like the odds of just pulling the Hōgyoku directly are higher."

As a vital item in Bleach, the Hōgyoku can break the boundary between Bleach and Hollows.

In the hands of Aizen, its performance was nothing short of terrifying.

"Rejecting" damage.

During the final battle between Aizen and Ichigo, it granted power unconditionally.

And guided evolution.

Now, only the last card remains.

With nothing to pad the previous draws, the pity system should guarantee an SSR.

The card slowly flips.

The light is not the golden color he imagined, but a shade resembling dark red.

Interwoven with brilliant gold edges, it looks like dried blood merging with burning flames!

On the front of the card, the pattern is not a concrete object or skill.

Instead, it is a blurred, wild figure wearing a captain's haori.

He carries a tattered Zanpakuto on his shoulder, and a light that seems to want to shred everything glimmers in his single eye.

[UR · Limited Character Summon Card · Zaraki Kenpachi (3 Minutes)]

[Description: Can summon Zaraki Kenpachi, Captain of the 11th Division of the Gotei 13 from the Bleach world, to descend into the current world for a duration of three minutes.

During the summon, Kenpachi possesses approximately 90% of his peak strength (adjusted to fit the current world's energy system).]

[Summoning Characteristics:]

Self-Awareness: The summoned entity possesses complete autonomy and combat instincts.

It is not under the host's direct control, but is inherently and absolutely loyal to the host.

Boiling Battle Intent: The summoned entity is extremely bellicose; upon appearance, it will automatically lock onto and attack the strongest enemy within range (as determined by the system).

If the host wishes for it to attack a specific target, they must explicitly designate it at the moment of summoning.

Time Limit: Strictly three minutes, with no possibility of extension.

Once the time expires or the summoned entity is "eliminated," it will automatically return.

Energy Consumption: After each use, the card will enter a cooldown period of up to 30 days.

Special Note: The combat style of Zaraki Kenpachi is extremely violent and may cause indiscriminate, large-scale destruction; please choose the occasion for use with caution.

[Quality: Red (UR Limited)]

Uchiha Ryūha's breathing hitched for a fleeting moment.

A UR card!

Not an SSR, but a higher-tier UR!

And it was a limited "Character Summoning Card" at that!

Zaraki Kenpachi!

The man who shattered a meteorite dozens of kilometers in diameter with a single strike in his Shikai state.

That Zaraki Kenpachi, the strongest in the history of the Soul Society.

That monster who could crush the vast majority of Bankai-wielding captains with nothing but his Reiatsu and swordsmanship, that madman who pursued the ultimate joy of battle!

Although it was only for three minutes, and only at 90% of his original strength...

In this world of Konoha, at this very moment in time, this was absolutely a nuclear-level trump card capable of turning the tide of any battle!

"What a... pleasant surprise." Uchiha Ryūha whispered to himself, his lips curling upward uncontrollably.

The ten-pull had yielded results far exceeding his expectations.

Five SR Kido cards, one SR Blut Vene cultivation method, and one special SR Hōgyoku Fragment.

Incantation Abandonment, basic Kaidō, and... this UR summoning card, which could serve as his ultimate trump card.

With a thought, all the newly acquired cards transformed into streams of light and merged into his body.

The incantations for Kido, the pathways for spiritual power circulation, and the key points for practicing Blut Vene became clear to him in an instant.

As for the "Hōgyoku Fragment," it manifested as a crystal the size of a fingernail, emitting a faint, barely perceptible dark purple glow as it appeared in his hand.

Ryūha thought for a moment, then took a sturdy black cord, strung it through, and wore it around his neck, hiding it against his skin.

As for the UR summoning card, it occupied the most prominent position in his system inventory.

The dark red surface of the card looked as if it might drip blood at any moment.

Everything was ready.

Ryūha opened his eyes and looked toward the direction of Konoha outside the training ground.

Chunin Exams...

I hope you all can provide me with some entertainment.
