Though This Lord's Sharingan Awakened Late, I Can Still Choose My Abilities!

After deciding to spend the remaining balance in his Pay-to-Win System to upgrade, Xuan Yu began to consider how he should allocate his points this time.

First of all, there was certainly no need to increase his speed; his current speed was likely faster than even the burst speed provided by the Lightning Release Body Technique.

Therefore, the more than 60 million ryo he had on hand could allow his stamina, strength, and spirit attributes to all break the 10,000 mark simultaneously, which would grant him three Growth Gift Packs.

However, considering that the intensity of the upcoming battles might be quite high, it seemed necessary to improve his Healing Jutsu as well.

In the event that he was injured, a high-level Healing Jutsu with a special effect could still save his life.

He was not a ninja like Kakuzu, who had mastered the Earth Grudge Fear Secret Technique and was difficult to kill.

If a powerful ninja discovered his specific intelligence and targeted his true body directly, he would still be finished off in his current state.

He had been able to bluff Orochimaru and the others because people were not very familiar with the special ability of Chakra Clones, not because he was already powerful enough to run rampant through the Ninja World.

After thinking for a while, Xuan Yu muttered to himself, "Let's suffer a bit more on the spirit attribute. First, break the 10,000 mark for stamina and strength, and at the same time, upgrade the Healing Jutsu to lv10!"

Having made up his mind, Xuan Yu immediately began the operation.

[Spent 20 million ryo, your stamina attribute has increased from 8,000 to 10,000, and you have received 1 Growth Gift Pack! Current balance: 40.1739 million ryo!]

[Spent 20 million ryo, your strength attribute has increased from 8,013 to 10,013, and you have received 1 Growth Gift Pack! Current balance: 20.1739 million ryo!]

[Spent 20 million ryo, your Healing Jutsu has increased from lv8 to lv10, and you have received 1 special effect! Current balance: 1.739 million ryo!]

After a flurry of operations, Xuan Yu had spent most of the balance in his Pay-to-Win System.

Suddenly, the familiar mysterious power once again enveloped his entire body.

His limbs and bones were continuously washed and nourished by that gentle yet vast mysterious power, and with every breath he took, his strength rose rapidly.

Xuan Yu felt that if he were to fight Kakuzu now, he wouldn't need any fancy tricks to easily beat him up.

However, Kakuzi was currently an excellent tool for him to earn commissions, so he would almost never fight him.

This point allocation not only made his stats very formidable but also earned him two Growth Gift Packs, and his Healing Jutsu now possessed a special effect.

Xuan Yu did not keep these two Growth Gift Packs; instead, he opened them with his consciousness and drew the prizes within the system space.

Once he was powerful enough in the future, it wouldn't matter if outsiders saw the scratch cards from the Growth Gift Packs, but for now, it was better to keep a low profile.

[Opened "Growth Gift Pack *2", received "Scratch Card *20"!]

Xuan Yu did not go all-in on these 20 scratch cards at once; instead, he planned to scratch five at a time to see if there would be any surprises.

He communicated with the system in his mind: "Brother System, in groups of 5, scratch 5 first."

After Xuan Yu's thought was transmitted, the Pay-to-Win System immediately performed the corresponding operation.

[Congratulations on obtaining]

[Expired Milk *1!]

[Expired Instant Noodles *1!]

[Explosive Tag *10!]

[Toad Oil *1!]

[Fuma Shuriken *1!]

Are you kidding me? Just this? This round of scratching made Xuan Yu's vision go dark.

Those two expired products had no value, and he seemed to have no use for the Toad Oil he obtained later.

It was already difficult for him to acquire new ninjutsu, and he had no channel to learn Sage Mode at all.

The Fuma Shuriken was equally useless to him; he rarely used ninja tools when fighting.

Even if he had to use ninja tools, he could use the Uchiha Flame Fan stored in his system space.

Only those 10 Explosive Tags could be used as a Konan trap, but with a mere 10 tags, Sister Konan would likely not take them to heart.

"Sigh!" Amidst his sighing, Xuan Yu began the second round of scratching.

"Brother System, continue, continue! Give me something good! Please don't scratch out something as outrageous as expired milk again!"

The results of the second round of scratching soon appeared.

[Congratulations on obtaining]

[Leaf Whirlwind Taijutsu Scroll *1!]

[Healing Jutsu Ninjutsu Scroll *1!]

[Three Body Technique Ninjutsu Scroll *1!]

[Body Flicker Technique Ninjutsu Scroll *1!]

[Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique lv1 *1!]

What the hell! That's too much! What is the meaning of getting four ninjutsu scrolls that I have already learned? This result left Xuan Yu completely stunned.

This round of scratching made him realize that his initial judgment was correct: the scratch cards indeed came in four types—white, blue, purple, and gold.

White cards were food and ordinary items, while blue cards were standard ninja tools and standard ninjutsu.

Getting five ninjutsu in one go should have been a good thing, but unfortunately, they were all blue-tier ninjutsu, and four of them were duplicates.

Aside from the four duplicate ninjutsu, the final one was actually the infamous Uchiha Little Flame.

As far as Xuan Yu knew, this ninjutsu had never recorded a single kill since its inception; its greatest achievement seemed to be scorching Sasuke's hand.

The only reason it had managed to scorch Sasuke's hand was because Sasuke had done it to himself while practicing the technique.

Still, it wasn't a big problem; he could use the Pay-to-Win System to upgrade the ninjutsu.

Moreover, this ninjutsu wasn't a scroll, but a direct acquisition, which effectively saved him the 10 million ryo tuition fee.

The previous two rounds of draws had been so unlucky that Xuan Yu began to suspect he wasn't a ninja of the Leaf Village, but a dark-skinned native of the Cloud Village.

Complaints aside, the drawing had to continue.

"Brother System, keep going, keep going! You have to give me something good!"

The results of the third round of draws soon appeared.

[Congratulations on obtaining]

[Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique Lv2 *1!]

[Stamina Attribute 500 *1!]

[Three-Color Dango *1!]

[Milk *1!]

[Ichiraku Ramen *1!]

"Sigh!" Xuan Yu still wasn't very satisfied with this round of scratching.

However, compared to the first two times, this was undoubtedly much better.

His Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique had been directly upgraded to Lv2, which was equivalent to saving another 10 million ryo in tuition.

Then there were the 500 stamina attribute points he had gained, which were also worth 5 million ryo!

As for the other three prizes, they were merely filler and not worth mentioning.

Xuan Yu didn't waste any time and began the final round of scratching.

"Brother System, keep going, keep going, this is the last set."

He didn't hold much hope this time; as long as the items he got from the scratch-off weren't too terrible, it would be fine.

[Congratulations on obtaining]

[Speed Attribute 500 *1!]

[Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique Lv3 *1!]

[Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique Lv4 *1!]

[Kekkei Genkai: Three Tomoe Sharingan *1 pair!]

[Mangekyo Sharingan Evolution Count *1 (Ability Optional)!]

"Good heavens! So all the good stuff was saved for the end?"

The final scratch-off left Xuan Yu pleasantly surprised.

First, there was the boost in attribute points and the upgrade to his ninjutsu; the 500 speed attribute points were worth 5 million ryo, and the two upgrades to his ninjutsu were worth 20 million ryo.

But these weren't the most exciting parts. The biggest surprise was that he now possessed the Sharingan, and it started at the Three Tomoe level.

At that moment, his eyes were undergoing a continuous transformation.

Not only that, but in addition to the Three Tomoe Sharingan, he had also obtained a "Mangekyo Sharingan Evolution Count *1." Being able to bypass the evolution rules of the Sharingan for a forced evolution while also being able to choose the Mangekyo Sharingan's ability—it was simply too awesome!
