Ye was not excited.

More precisely, he did not dare to get excited.

Ye pressed his tongue against the roof of his mouth and clicked it lightly.

The disastrous experiences from before began replaying in his mind uncontrollably.

A gold-plated explosive tag that would not explode, a kunai that would never hit its target, and slippers that could make someone slip all the way into a concussion.

This lousy system's so-called guaranteed top-grade rewards were completely Schrödinger's top-grade rewards!

Could this be another disgusting word game, where it spat out a pile of upgraded scam items just to send him to his grave?

But the number in the upper-right corner of the panel was simply too tempting.

One hundred and two thousand, eight hundred and eighty points.

For this enormous sum, he had chased Asuma around with a red brick during the day and scared Obito with creepy figurines at night.

He had practically stripped a layer of wool off every sheep Konoha had to offer.

If he did not draw now, was he saving it for the New Year?

The bold would be fed to bursting, while the timid would starve.

Ye took a deep breath and narrowed his eyes, a gambler's ruthlessness flashing in their depths.

He locked his thoughts onto the golden button of the Advanced Prize Pool and went all in.

"Ten pulls, open!"

With a crisp ding, his balance took a cliff dive.

One hundred thousand points vanished in an instant, dropping from six digits to a pitiful 2,880.

At the same time, a sudden phenomenon erupted within the System Space!

Blinding golden light shot upward like ten towering pillars, piercing the illusory heavens.

The extravagant special effects were dazzling enough to blind him, far more luxurious than the ordinary prize pool.

Ye held his breath as his heartbeat soared.

The first pillar of light slowly receded.

As the golden light faded, an especially gaudy kunai floated silently in the air.

Its blade was actually embedded with three diamond chips, refracting brilliant rainbow-colored halos.

[Top-Grade Living-Target-Missing Diamond-Studded Kunai: Perfectly avoids all living beings. Its flight path comes with rainbow diamond light effects, maximizing the show-off factor.]

Ye's eyelids twitched wildly, and his stomach churned.

Though his expression barely changed, his blood pressure was shooting through the roof.

Before he could start cursing, the second through sixth pillars of light burst open in succession.

[Imperial Gold-Inlaid Limited-Edition Brush That Always Leaks Ink When Writing: The ink comes with a durian stench that lasts ten days.] [Special-Supply Ninja Sandals That Always Fall Off When Worn: Can scrape brilliant sparks across the ground when you slip.] [Top-Grade Platinum-Plated Military Canteen That Makes You Thirstier the More You Drink.] [Premium Pure-Silk Facial Tissue That Always Causes Acne After Wiping Your Face.] [Surround-Sound Bass Windbreaker That Tears With One Pull and Absolutely Leaks Air.]

Six glittering, supreme-grade pieces of industrial trash.

They were all useless junk with flashy appearances and built-in psychological pollution.

They sat neatly in the System Space as though they were holding an exhibition.

Although they glittered with golden light, the glare made Ye's vision go dark.

His mentality instantly slid into the abyss.

He collapsed backward onto the wooden bed in a Ge You slouch, gripping the blanket tightly as he cursed furiously in his heart.

This lousy system had definitely been sent by Danzo to mess with the Uchiha Clan's mentality!

That Peak Genin Chakra was all bait to tempt him into going all in!

All so he could throw the hard-earned hundred-thousand-point fortune he had squeezed out into a bottomless pit in exchange for a pile of garbage!

Just as Ye gritted his teeth and prepared to completely accept his fate as a hopelessly unlucky man.

The seventh golden light dispersed.

Ye had already given up all hope. He was even considering smashing this lousy panel today if it turned out to be more trash.

Within the light floated a rough-surfaced rectangular block with sharp edges.

Ye stared at it closely and froze.

That shape, that feel—it was exactly the same as the red brick he had swiped to smash Asuma with during the day!

He reflexively opened the item information.

[Top-Grade Indestructible Red Brick: Ignores all physical and Chakra attacks. The ultimate building material that can never be destroyed.] Weight remains constant. Excellent feel when used to smack people.

Ye's eyes immediately lit up, and his depressed mood vanished without a trace.

Indestructible!

What did that mean?

It meant that even if a Tailed Beast Ball hit him in the face, this brick would not lose so much as a speck of its surface!

In this Shinobi World, where people could destroy heaven and earth at the drop of a hat, this was the ultimate absolute physical-defense shield!

Even if Madara Uchiha came down with a sword swing from his complete-body Susanoo.

As long as Ye raised this brick and smashed it upward, he could forcibly cling to life!

Just imagining Madara using the Uchiha Gunbai to reflect an attack, while he used a red brick to reflect Madara's reflection of the attack.

His horizons instantly broadened. That image was simply too beautiful.

From there, this top-grade red brick completely knocked open the door to absurd luck.

Immediately afterward, the eighth pillar of light dispersed.

A dense blood-red tint mixed into this golden light, transforming into a surge of pure, violent energy.

Without any warning or preparation, it shot out of the System Space and poured down through Ye's forehead.

[Obtained: Peak Genin Physique.]

The instant the energy entered his body, Ye shuddered as intense soreness and tearing pain surged through his muscles and bones.

His bones crackled loudly, and his bone density began skyrocketing by multiples.

In just five seconds, he had been completely remade.

Ye slowly stood and clenched his right fist.

As his knuckles compressed, he actually squeezed out a dull burst of air.

Terrifying strength more than three times greater than before surged madly through his veins.

If he had previously been a broken-down little car, now he was a broken-down little car running at full horsepower!

After all, he still had the foundation of a Genin. Ye could not exactly be called an armored vehicle.

However, paired with the Peak Genin Chakra he had obtained earlier, the hardware foundation of his student years was now completely solid.

The ninth pillar of light uneventfully gave him a Top-Grade Never-Explodes Explosive Tag Variant.

Ye did not even raise an eyelid before skipping over it.

All the suspense rested on the tenth pillar of light.

Layer after layer of radiance peeled away, revealing a pure blood-red backdrop.

A pair of scarlet eyes, cold and sinister in aura, floated quietly in the void.

Upon the black irises, a single tomoe slowly revolved.

[Obtained: One-Tomoe Sharingan Permanent-Binding Type. Awakens immediately upon binding, with no side effects from opening the eyes and no emotional trigger restrictions. Can be cultivated and advanced normally.]

Ye stared at those eyes, his breathing stopping for a full three seconds.

Then only one wild roar remained in his heart.

This was the foundation the Uchiha Clan relied upon to survive!

Obito had been scared half to death by a lousy wooden carving before he barely awakened his eyes, yet Ye got one for free just by clicking a draw?

Without any hesitation, Ye decisively chose to bind it.

Two beams of red light instantly entered his eyes.

There was none of the legendary stabbing pain, only an especially pleasant cool sensation spreading along his nerves.

Ye closed his eyes, then opened them again.

The clarity of the entire world switched directly from standard definition to ultra-high definition.

The dust dancing in the room, the tiny bugs in the gaps between the wooden boards, even the faint changes in airflow outside the window—everything entered his sight!

He could even clearly sense the perfect route of Chakra flowing through his body.

The faint jealousy he had felt over Obito accidentally awakening his eyes was now gone without a trace.

He could not help rubbing his hands together as he imagined that, if he saved up one million points and forced a draw, could he pull a Sage Body and Wood Release?

And if he earned ten million points, would the Rinnegan not be his in minutes?

Filled with overwhelming security and the joy of sudden wealth, Ye flopped onto the bed.

He stared at the ceiling and giggled foolishly for a full minute.

Then he rolled over and fell asleep instantly, completely satisfied.
