Chapter 243 - Purifying the Bloodline, the Power of the Sage of Six Paths?

"Six-Six Great Fortune… six weeks…"

Kai swept his gaze over the trait on the panel that had been silent for quite some time. His heart stirred.

"System, time to collect."

[Ding! Six-Six Great Fortune's six-week cycle has completed! Congratulations, Host has obtained Legendary Trait Enhancement Point +1!]

[Effect: Can enhance a Gold Legendary trait, causing a quantitative transformation! Note: There is a certain chance of a critical hit, upgrading a Gold Legendary trait into a Colorless God-Tier trait.]

"There's even a critical hit chance?"

A trace of confusion flashed across Kai's baby-fat cheeks.

"Wasn't it supposed to be an upgrade?"

Purple traits were directly upgraded into Gold Legendary traits. Why was it that once it reached Legendary, it could only increase the effect?

Thinking this, his gaze subconsciously shifted toward the God-Tier traits and the other traits.

Compared to other traits—whether special Black traits, Legendary traits, or Epic traits—they were all single abilities, or traits related to talent.

But Colorless God-Tier traits…

They seemed more like rules.

Or rather, conceptual traits that stood above rules themselves!

To upgrade a powerful trait that was still bound within rules into something that stood above rules…

Thinking about it like that, Kai understood.

It was not that the enhancement point was not strong enough.

It was that God-Tier traits were too much of a bug.

"But having a critical hit chance is enough."

He grinned like a little mouse that had stolen oil. Then he asked one more question in his heart.

"System, how high is the critical hit chance?"

[Ding! The Legendary Enhancement Point produced after six weeks has a critical hit chance of 1%.]

[The Legendary Enhancement Point produced after six months has a critical hit chance of 5%.]

[The Legendary Enhancement Point produced after six years has a critical hit chance of 50%.]

Uchiha Kai: "…"

Holy flying grass.

This probability was not even as high as the chance of him convincing someone with Talk no Jutsu!

What could it even be used for?

A hammer?

Only the six-year Legendary Enhancement Point was somewhat useful…

But a fifty percent chance was really too torturous for the mind, wasn't it?

After having a headache for a while, his gaze quickly swept across his many traits.

Flying Thunder God?

Dual Kamui?

Nine-Tails Power?

Finally…

His gaze fixed on the trait he had obtained not long ago.

Legendary Trait: Pure Byakugan.

A trait that could bring him a trace of pure Ōtsutsuki bloodline.

Ignoring the critical hit chance and only considering the quantitative transformation brought after enhancement—

Clearly, the pure Ōtsutsuki bloodline brought by Pure Byakugan fit best!

Of course, the high-grade Wood Release cells in his body, which were about to reach one hundred percent, also counted as an option.

So after hesitating for a moment, Kai licked the corner of his lips. The hesitation in his eyes gradually faded.

"This is the one. System, enhance Pure Byakugan."

Bloodline power was not of much use to him.

But—

For Karasuki, it was very useful!

[Ding! Enhancement target locked: Pure Byakugan!]

[Consuming Legendary Enhancement Point ×1!]

[Enhancing… Enhancement complete!]

Buzz!!

As the final word of the prompt fell, Kai suddenly felt an indescribable throb erupt deep within his pupils!

It was like an exploding thermos, bursting open from the depths of his eyes without any warning!

A scorching, stinging sensation attacked fiercely!

Even Kai could not withstand it at the first moment. He let out a muffled groan.

"Ugh… hiss!"

Immediately after, his body tensed.

In his eyes, the Mangekyō Sharingan that had originally still been spinning was suppressed almost instantly.

In its place rose a pair of pure white eyes!

Byakugan!

Without him activating it, it opened on its own!

In an instant, within his 360-degree field of vision, everything began to lose color and break apart.

It was as if these were no longer trees, rocks, and scorched earth.

No longer matter.

Instead, they were—

Strands of flowing, entangled, boiling energy!

But the change in vision was only one part.

More importantly, it was inside his body!

The faint Ōtsutsuki bloodline that had originally come from Pure Byakugan now seemed as if someone had pressed Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V, rapidly spreading and copying itself!

Deep within his genes, strange things that looked like shackles around his eyes began cracking inch by inch under the washing of this bloodline!

Crack!

Crack!

Crack!

Very quickly, subtle yet teeth-aching sounds of bones rubbing came from inside his body.

One after another.

Again and again.

Beneath his skin, a layer of mysterious pale-golden markings appeared and rapidly spread from around his eyes across his truly baby-fat cheeks!

"This is!"

On the ground, Urashiki, who was lying prone, nearly stared his eyes blind.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"This is a transformation only pure-blood Ōtsutsuki can possess! How could he, an insect, possibly—how could he possibly?!"

He was shocked.

His heart had already been overturned by stormy waves, and he could not believe his own eyes.

At this moment, the Ōtsutsuki bloodline he had always been so proud of completely collapsed!

Boom!

Rumble!

At that moment, an enormous thunderclap suddenly exploded beside Sasuke's ear!

His eyes changed uncontrollably. The Rinnegan and Mangekyō spun rapidly!

"Did you… hear something?"

He took a deep breath and turned to look at Naruto and Boruto.

The two of them merely shook their heads blankly.

Then he looked toward Jiraiya.

After discovering that Jiraiya seemed to have no reaction at all, a trace of doubt quietly rose in Sasuke's heart.

That rumbling sound like a true god—

What exactly was it?

Boom!

And yet, at this moment, another thunderclap sounded beside his ear!

More accurately, it sounded within his pupils!

Vaguely, a small boy covered in pale-golden markings appeared within it!

"This is!"

Sasuke finally realized something was wrong. He struggled to sit up from the ground and looked across.

There, Uchiha Kai seemed to be undergoing some kind of change.

The pressure radiating from his body was also becoming more and more immense.

So immense that even Sasuke felt as if he did not dare look directly at him.

But precisely because of this feeling, he somehow had the illusion that he was looking at…

Momoshiki!

"I-I-I must be seeing things…"

He took a deep breath, wanting to forcefully suppress the pressure in his heart—

The pressure coming from the very origin of life!

That terrifying pressure that made one feel unable to look directly at it!

But it was useless.

The trembling inside him continued!

Even the Indra power deep within his bloodline was instinctively shaking!

"Wh-what… what is this?!"

Beside the mixer, Gaara stared in shock at the sand inside his gourd.

Each grain of sand looked like boiling water that had been fried to bubbling, constantly gurgling!

Inside his mindscape, Shukaku let out sharp screams one after another.

"This aura is! It's! It's!"

"The Sage of Six Paths?!"
