What Was Bound to Happen Finally Happened, but Sealing Jutsu Had a Promising Future

"Huh? Did I finally get lucky for once? So far, I haven't scratched anything too terrible."

Looking at the prizes before him, Xuan Yu felt as if it wasn't real.

In the past, he'd often scratched up outrageous things like Expired Milk, as though he'd drawn from Naruto's exclusive prize pool.

This time was different. Even the Tiger-Pattern Mask he'd scratched first was useful.

After a brief moment of surprise, Xuan Yu's attention quickly settled on the "Ability Upgrade Card."

The item was currently in his system inventory. It could raise any one of his abilities by one level.

Without a doubt, it was an excellent prize.

He didn't use either of the two Ability Upgrade Cards right away.

He planned to scratch the remaining cards first, then decide which ability would be best to upgrade.

Xuan Yu divided the remaining twelve Scratch-off Cards into two groups of six.

After a flurry of scratching, six prizes appeared.

[Congratulations, you received: Fuma Shuriken *1!]

[Congratulations, you received: Explosive Tag *10!]

[Congratulations, you received: Military Ration Pill *10!]

[Congratulations, you received: Pork Cutlet Bowl *1!]

[Congratulations, you received: Sealing Jutsu: Four-Symbols Seal lv3!]

[Congratulations, you received: Ability Upgrade Card *1!]

"Not bad. I got another Ability Upgrade Card. But the sealing jutsu and Military Ration Pills don't seem very useful."

Xuan Yu had drawn Fuma Shuriken and other ninja tools before, but he hardly ever had any use for them.

And Military Ration Pills? If you could mooch food and drink, who would eat those?

The Four-Symbols Seal was a decent sealing jutsu. Two Four-Symbols Seals could be combined to form the Eight Trigrams Seal.

Minato Namikaze had used the Eight Trigrams Seal to seal half of the Nine-Tails inside Naruto.

But Xuan Yu didn't think he'd have much use for the Four-Symbols Seal.

He needed to capture the Tailed Beasts, but he didn't need to turn the ones he captured into Jinchūriki.

Still, the Four-Symbols Seal was a good sealing jutsu, so getting it was a good thing.

Xuan Yu didn't save the last six Scratch-off Cards, either. He immediately continued scratching.

But the moment he scratched off the first one, he couldn't help stopping.

[Congratulations, you received: Expired Milk *1!]

"Damn! I finally scratched up this thing after all!"

Xuan Yu was utterly speechless. Not long ago, he'd been congratulating himself on finally getting lucky.

But as he kept scratching, what was bound to happen finally happened. He and the prize "Expired Milk" seemed to share some strange bond. Sooner or later, it always showed up.

He casually tossed the Expired Milk into the trash, then continued scratching.

[Congratulations, you received: Sealing Jutsu: Four-Symbols Seal lv4!]

[Congratulations, you received: Sealing Jutsu: Four-Symbols Seal lv5!]

[Congratulations, you received: Sealing Jutsu: Four-Symbols Seal lv6!]

[Congratulations, you received: Ability Upgrade Card *1!]

[Congratulations, you received: Expired Instant Noodles *1!]

"Damn! Not only did I get Expired Milk, but I also got Expired Instant Noodles!"

After finishing all the scratching, Xuan Yu complained bitterly.

Compared to his previous draws, this time he'd had bad luck, strictly speaking.

He might have drawn more Expired Milk before, but he'd also gotten some top-tier items, like the Speed Force talent and the Mangekyō Sharingan.

This time, after using up twenty Scratch-off Cards, he'd only drawn some fairly ordinary items. The best prizes were probably the four Ability Upgrade Cards.

After checking the ninjutsu he had, Xuan Yu realized he was in an awkward position with the number of Ability Upgrade Cards he had.

If he had five Ability Upgrade Cards, he could raise Leaf Whirlwind from lv15 to lv20 and give the Taijutsu a second special ability.

He could also raise Three Body Technique and Body Flicker Technique from lv15 to lv20.

But now he only had four Ability Upgrade Cards. He could either save them or use them to upgrade Sealing Jutsu: Four-Symbols Seal.

Four Ability Upgrade Cards were just enough to raise the sealing jutsu from lv6 to lv10 and unlock a special ability.

After thinking it over briefly, Xuan Yu decided to use them.

The Four-Symbols Seal was a versatile sealing jutsu. Once it reached lv10 and gained a special ability, it would surely have an even wider range of uses.

[Used "Ability Upgrade Card *4." Sealing Jutsu: Four-Symbols Seal increased from lv6 to lv10 and gained a special effect!]

After using up all his Ability Upgrade Cards, Xuan Yu had upgraded every aspect of himself that he could.

He immediately began checking his latest system panel.

Compared with before, his latest panel had changed quite a bit.

[Name: Uchiha Genba]

[Age: 18]

Four Attributes:

[Stamina 10500: Your stamina is like a mighty, surging river—truly terrifying! Your stamina attribute is nearly 1.6 times Kakuzu's!]

[Strength 10013: Your strength is frighteningly powerful! Kakuzu is no longer qualified to compete with you in pure strength. You're not even in the same league!]

[Speed 20102: You possess terrifying speed that even ordinary Six Paths Level shinobi lack! If you steal a bounty target hunted by Kakuzu or another mercenary, they may not be able to tell that you were responsible.]

[Spirit 10451: Your spiritual power is frighteningly strong. You can resist most genjutsu. Any genjutsu you can't resist will have its effects greatly weakened!]

Talents:

[Mangekyō Sharingan: You possess an exceptionally powerful and unique Kekkei Genkai. Your exclusive ocular technique is Kamui, which grants you powerful space-time abilities. But be careful not to overuse it!]

[Speed Force: After your speed and stamina attributes improved further, your Speed Force ability also grew stronger. You're still a rookie among speedsters, but most shinobi can no longer compete with you in pure speed.]

Abilities:

[Leaf Whirlwind lv15: Your Leaf Whirlwind Taijutsu has grown stronger and gained one special effect, "Whirlwind Fierce Kick." Whirlwind Fierce Kick: When you use this move, you can unleash a powerful whirlwind kick that can even blow Kakuzu away!]

[Three Body Technique lv15: Your Three Body Technique has grown stronger and gained one special effect, "Chakra Clone." Chakra Clone: You can create Chakra Clones that are living chakra beings like Tailed Beasts. Their strength depends on the quantity and quality of your chakra.]

[Body Flicker Technique lv15: Your Body Flicker Technique has grown stronger and gained one special effect, "Phantom Body Flicker." Phantom Body Flicker: Within a certain range, you can create multiple Shadow Clones that are halfway between solid bodies and illusions. Your real body can switch between them; the phantoms can't be affected by attacks, and multiple phantoms can attack at once. The strength of this ability is affected by the Sharingan.]

[Mystical Palm Technique lv10: Your mastery of the Mystical Palm Technique is extremely high, and you have one special effect, "Enhanced Self-Healing." Enhanced Self-Healing: No matter the circumstances, whenever your body is injured, it will automatically consume chakra to recover quickly!]

[Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique lv5: Your Great Fireball Technique has grown stronger, but don't celebrate just yet. It's still a merciful ninjutsu!]

[Fire Style: Blast Wave Wild Dance lv2: This ninjutsu combines the Kamui ocular technique with Fire Release Ninjutsu to create a large-scale fire tornado. Its current level is low, so using it in actual combat is not recommended.]

[Sealing Jutsu: Four-Symbols Seal lv10: Used to seal powerful enemies or demons, this jutsu employs the Four Symbols' cycle to seal an entire target inside a chosen object for an extended period. This ability has one special effect. Precise Control: You can modify the sealing formula according to your needs, sealing targets in different ways.]

[Current balance: 194,200 ryō!]
