Three-Tomoe Sharingan

"System, don't think you can sweep this under the rug just by staying silent!"

"System, if you've got what it takes to steal..., then if you've got what it takes to make a mistake, you'd better show up and take responsibility!"

"System..."

Although the system didn't respond, Yun Xi had no intention of giving up just like that.

After all, an opportunity to catch the system making a mistake was rarer than once in a thousand years.

Indeed, Yun Xi was being a little shameless now.

But...

He couldn't help it.

The Uchiha Clan Massacre was drawing closer, and Yun Xi's combat strength...

Was worlds apart from a big boss like Danzo.

Although Yun Xi was confident he could grow stronger before the massacre took place,

Still...

With the system's help, he'd feel much more confident.

"System, if you don't show up, I'm going to call for help!"

After grumbling for quite a while, Yun Xi couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

He didn't actually know if shamelessly asking for a reward like this would get him one.

In the end,

He only wanted to give it a try.

Just as Yun Xi was about to give up, a new system notification appeared in his mind.

"Ding! Due to an error on the system's part, the host suffered a loss. As compensation, the host is hereby rewarded with: Physical Enhancement x1."

Hearing the notification, Yun Xi looked stunned!

He hadn't expected...

The system to actually give him a reward.

And...

Judging from the description, this reward seemed to be something that could directly strengthen Yun Xi's body.

Did he know what he was most lacking right now?

Pure physical strength!

As for ninjutsu, although most of what he had were Fire Release techniques ranging from C to B rank,

The Fire Style Ninjutsu Enhancement and the Flame-Flame Fruit item he'd received from the system meant that Yun Xi wasn't exactly short on ways to attack.

When it came to combat support, Yun Xi had the Three-Tomoe Sharingan.

Whether for scouting or spotting an enemy's weaknesses in battle, it was undoubtedly the best choice in all of Naruto.

And Yun Xi's greatest weakness right now was his body.

Although Yun Xi had the Eight Inner Gates, one of the most powerful Taijutsu techniques in all of Naruto, mastering it could even let him fight Uchiha Madara at his peak.

But...

Mastering the Eight Inner Gates completely required a great deal of time before he could see results.

But!

Time was exactly what Yun Xi lacked most right now.

On top of that, before Yun Xi had crossed over, this body had belonged to an ordinary civilian and had practically no combat ability.

After more than a week of training, Yun Xi's physical condition was already much better than it had been.

But compared with other people, his overall physical strength was still only about that of an average Genin.

He might even be weaker than some Genin who specialized in Taijutsu...

That was why Yun Xi had been looking for a way to strengthen his body quickly...

He hadn't expected...

To actually get his wish under these unexpected circumstances!

"Accept the reward!"

Suppressing his excitement, Yun Xi immediately chose to claim the reward!

As soon as the words left his mouth,

A dazzling light appeared inside Yun Xi's body.

At first, the dazzling light only shone from his palm.

But as time passed,

Gradually...

The light released by the system spread over every part of Yun Xi's body, from his hands and cheeks to his waist and thighs...

"What's this?!"

Seeing this, Yun Xi's eyes filled with confusion, unlike when the red aura had covered him before.

This time, Yun Xi didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

Instead, he felt incredibly relaxed!

A pleasant warmth spread through him, as if he were enjoying a luxurious sunbath on an endless beach.

And wherever the light touched, Yun Xi could feel a strange surge of strength...

If the place where Yun Xi had been during the Sharingan's evolution was hell,

Then this time, he was definitely in heaven...

It was a wonderful sensation unlike anything Yun Xi had ever experienced.

After an unknown amount of time, Yun Xi slowly opened his eyes.

When he saw that it was already dark outside, he was instantly shocked!

"How much time has passed?!"

As Yun Xi remembered it, it had only been evening when he started receiving the reward.

But now...

It was pitch-black beyond the window. Aside from the occasional chirping of insects and birds, there wasn't a sound.

"Has that much time really passed?!"

Clearly, Yun Xi couldn't believe that this evolution had taken so long.

He pinched his cheek without thinking.

When he felt a little pain, Yun Xi believed it was real.

He hadn't fallen under a genjutsu...

At the same time, something even more astonishing happened!

He had actually grown taller!

When Yun Xi first crossed over, he'd been no more than one and a half meters tall.

Although Yun Xi was only twelve, that was definitely short.

Combined with his thin frame, he'd often looked about ten years old.

But now...

Compared with how he'd looked before,

He was completely different!

His former height of one and a half meters was a thing of the past. Yun Xi was now about one meter eighty, and he had visible muscles all over his body.

He swung a fist casually!

It left an afterimage in the air!

If Yun Xi's previous Jonin-level strength had come entirely from his powerful Fire Release Ninjutsu,

Then the strength contained in his body alone now put him on par with an ordinary Chunin!

"This reward actually made me this much stronger?"

At first, Yun Xi hadn't expected much from the system's reward.

But the actual results had truly shocked him...

"As expected..."

"Cheating is the easiest way to get stronger..."

After getting used to his new body, Yun Xi felt a little smug.

At the same time, he grew even more curious about the system...

"Ding! Three-Tomoe Sharingan successfully fused..."

At the same time, Yun Xi's Three-Tomoe Sharingan had completely fused with his body.

"So this is the power of the Sharingan?"

As soon as he opened his eyes, his pupils, which had been as black as polished jade, turned dark red. Three black, comma-shaped tomoe slowly revolved in Yun Xi's eyes...

The Sharingan's distinctive power coursed through Yun Xi's body.

Yun Xi tried activating his Sharingan...

He discovered that not only had his field of vision become much broader, he could even see an unfamiliar beetle several streets away...

And the changes the Sharingan brought Yun Xi weren't limited to that...
