Natsuki first flew back to Hidden Light Village. He needed to check whether his Mangekyo had awakened a new ability.
He closed his eyes and entered the Dream Space. It did not take long before Natsuki opened his eyes again.
It was a mixture of good and bad news. The bad news was that he had already awakened one ocular technique.
But now, that ocular technique was not very useful to him. It would only become useful later.
The good news was that he would still have chances to awaken more ocular techniques in the future.
But the conditions were not sufficient yet.
Natsuki cast aside his anxious thoughts.
It was fine. Soon enough.
Once Itachi and the others finished writing the script, if all went smoothly, Natsuki should be able to advance to Kekkei Mōra before Obito launched his full-scale attack.
Natsuki then began checking the rewards for Gaara and Fū.

Congratulations to the host for drastically changing Fū's life trajectory.] Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Cocoon Technique x1 [Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully recruiting Fū.] Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Open-mindedness (replaceable)
Natsuki felt that Gaara's trait was quite reasonable, but Fū's trait left him somewhat speechless.

Natsuki had now basically figured out the exchange rules for traits. It took two or three useless ones to exchange for a relatively strong one.
And the one that consumed the most while improving the least...
