Eight Inner Gates, Spirit Transformation Technique

Soon, his consciousness sank.

Natsume opened the system personal panel in his mind.

[Host: Natsume

Affinity: Fire, Wind, Yin

Chakra: 6 Kaka (One Kaka is approximately equal to the total chakra of an elite Jonin)

Ninjutsu: Bringer-of-Darkness Technique (A-rank Genjutsu), Shadow Clone Technique (B-rank Ninjutsu), Great Fireball Technique (C-rank Fire Style), Phoenix Sage Fire Technique (C-rank Fire Style), Transformation Technique (E-rank), Substitution Technique (E-rank)

Kekkei Genkai: Sharingan (Mangekyo)

Taijutsu: One Thousand Years of Death, Leaf Whirlwind

Special Skill: Chakra Extraction Method

Current Balance: 7828 Gold Coins]

Clearly, this was the sum of all the abilities Natsume currently possessed.

Previously, in order to accumulate gold coins to purchase the powerful Mangekyo Sharingan, Natsume had not been greedy for too many ninjutsu.

He had focused his efforts on refining and perfecting only the most practical techniques: Bringer-of-Darkness Technique, Shadow Clone Technique, and Great Fireball Technique.

It was precisely because of this that he could unleash the Great Fireball Technique with such immense power that it was comparable to a "mobile artillery battery."

Now, having escaped Konoha and established the new Flame Hidden Village, the future battles and political landscape would inevitably become more complex.

As the young clan leader, Natsume naturally needed to broaden his repertoire of ninjutsu to prepare for any contingencies.

Of course, those ninjutsu with a learning difficulty above B-rank were not easily mastered.

Except for those monstrously gifted ninjas, a normal ninja would inevitably require a long period of tempering and practice to learn a single technique.

Just look at Naruto; even with the assistance of so many shadow clones, it took him a full week to barely master the Rasengan, which showed just how difficult it was.

However, none of this was a problem for Natsume.

As long as a ninjutsu was redeemed from the system or obtained through a lucky draw, the system allowed him to learn it instantly!

This was enough to save him a massive amount of learning time.

His unique Super Pay-to-Win System had two main functions.

One was to redeem various precious ninjutsu, bloodlines, special abilities, and more from the system store using gold coins.

The other was the pay-to-win lottery module: 100 gold coins for a single draw, 888 gold coins for a ten-pull.

The former was extremely expensive but clearly priced and honest.

The latter cost slightly less, but the prizes varied, relying purely on luck.

Natsume, who had been notoriously unlucky in his previous life, dared not gamble on his luck.

For the past ten years, he had been forced to honestly accumulate gold coins, step by step, to redeem the Mangekyo Sharingan from the system store.

There was no help for it; Natsume had scoured the system store, and this Kekkei Genkai was the most cost-effective.

Other Kekkei Genkai of the same level required at least 2000 gold coins.

Only the Mangekyo Sharingan, which was the most compatible with him, cost only 1000 gold coins.

Moreover, redeeming it granted him three powerful skills, including the exclusive abilities for both eyes and the Susanoo!

How could it not be a bargain?

And now, possessing 7828 gold coins, Natsume could be called a tycoon.

He quickly flashed into the system store and began to spend lavishly, entering "buy, buy, buy" mode.

Water Style: Water Formation Wall (B-rank) -- 200 gold coins

Lightning Style: Shadow Clone Technique (B-rank) -- 200 gold coins

Earth Style: Earth-Style Wall (B-rank) -- 200 gold coins

Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame (B-rank) -- 200 gold coins

Ninja Art: Character Binding Technique (B-rank) -- 200 gold coins

Summoning Technique: Triple Rashomon (A-rank) -- 800 gold coins

Ninja Art: Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique (A-rank) -- 800 gold coins

Taijutsu: Eight Inner Gates Formation (S-rank)--2000 Gold Coins

Soul Ninjutsu: Spirit Transformation Technique (S-rank)--2000 Gold Coins

Natsume quickly exchanged for a total of nine different types of ninjutsu.

Ranging from B-rank to S-rank.

They covered attack, defense, control, sensory, burst... and other categories, making for a very rich selection.

In short, it should be enough to handle various combat situations in the short term.

Of course, with the Sharingan, Natsume could theoretically copy the vast majority of ninjutsu with ease.

However, if he lacked the corresponding elemental chakra, he would be unable to perform them.

That was why Natsume had deliberately exchanged for one ninjutsu each of Water, Lightning, and Earth first.

Because after exchanging for a single-element ninjutsu from the system, not only could he learn it instantly, but he would also directly possess the corresponding elemental chakra!

In other words, he had spent only 600 gold coins to instantly master three additional types of elemental chakra.

It was an absolute steal!

This was the reason Natsume was in such a rush to exchange for these ordinary ninjutsu.

As for the other ninjutsu, they all had their own special uses.

They were the kinds of techniques that ordinary ninjas did not know and were difficult to copy easily.

In particular, the two S-rank techniques he had spent a fortune on—the taijutsu and the soul ninjutsu—were ones he had coveted for a long time.

The power of the former, Eight Inner Gates, goes without saying.

Once the 'Gate of Death' is opened, even Six Paths Madara cannot stop it!

As for the latter, it is one of the most mysterious soul ninjutsu in the entire ninja world.

Once activated:

One can turn into a living soul, allowing the soul to leave the body, travel across any distance to kill enemies; one can also control the opponent's body or enter another's mental world; it can even be used as a sensory ninjutsu to perceive the souls of others.

It is truly infinitely versatile!

Especially after mastering this technique.

The next time he faces an incredibly slippery enemy like Obito, he will no longer be so passive.

He can completely use his spirit body to attack Obito.

Thinking about it, the next time they meet, he will be able to give 'Obito-bro' a good scare!

Spending money is a thrill for a moment, spending money is always a thrill, but after the spending is done, it's a funeral!

It was indeed very happy while spending the money.

But after the money was gone, the pain began.

A careful calculation revealed that these nine ninjutsu had cost Natsume a total of 6600 gold coins! That was equivalent to a massive fortune of 66 million ryo!

So much so that only 1228 gold coins remained!

It hurt so much that Natsume felt as if his heart were bleeding!

But desire, once stirred up, is hard to suppress.

Under the temptation of the system.

Natsume glanced at his balance, then peered at the lottery module.

In the end, he reached his hand toward that sinful lottery treasure chest.

He went for a long-awaited 'ten-pull'!

[Would you like to pay 888 gold coins to start a ten-pull?]

"Confirm!"

"Whoosh--"

888 gold coins vanished in an instant like flowing water.

The wretched treasure chest emitted a brilliant light.

Whether he is lucky or cursed, it is about to be witnessed!
