I'm retrieving corpses in Konoha.

After the strange warm current passed, Uchiha Natsu discovered that he had gained a new water-style chakra nature transformation.

Now, I have four attributes: fire, earth, thunder, and water.

With more and more attributes, Uchiha Natsu was able to use more and more ninjutsu.

Among all the bloodline activations, it was an unexpected delight to draw such a gem.

After receiving the attribute bonuses, Uchiha Natsu also chose to receive the two advanced bloodline activations.

A warm current enveloped his eyes, and Uchiha Natsu could feel that his eye power had increased again.

Carefully sensing the increase in eye power from these two instances, Uchiha Natsu estimated that it would take at least thirty more attempts to evolve the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan using this power.

Perhaps, it will go even higher.

Because the difference this time is quite large, Uchiha Natsu's estimate may be inaccurate.

"The Eternal Kaleidoscope, I wonder if we can collect them all in this war."

Uchiha Natsu frowned slightly. This war was an excellent opportunity, and if they seized it, they would gain more and more benefits.

We must kill as many high-ranking ninjas from both countries as possible before the war ends, so time is running out.

Coming to her senses, Uchiha Natsu let out a long breath and calmed her excited emotions.

Then, he placed his hand on Yotsuki Joe's massive corpse.

Ye Yueqiao's corpse instantly turned into dust and vanished.

Chapter 42 Losses and Gains

In my mind, the shop doors were wide open, and the corpse was being carried inside.

The sound of keyboard typing then began.

—Corpse score: 75 points, credit rating bonus: 10 points, total score: 85 points.

—Obtain the trade item: Bloodline Limit Lottery. Effect: 50%+ chance to draw a Bloodline Limit.

Please choose to take it or discard it at your own discretion.

"The limit of blood inheritance?"

Uchiha Natsu's heart stirred.

Bloodline limit is a special kind of inherited talent ability, like his own Sharingan, which is a type of bloodline limit.

There are also many bloodline limits that involve chakra nature transformation, such as Ice Release and Lava Release.

To obtain a bloodline limit of chakra nature transformation, one must possess immense talent and make unimaginable efforts.

Under normal circumstances, bloodline limits, such as those for bodily organs, are not obtainable.

"With this increase in bloodline limit, if I had a pair of Byakugan..."

Thinking of this, Uchiha Natsu's gaze became somewhat eager.

I wonder what kind of novel eye techniques will be created by combining the Byakugan and the Mangekyou Sharingan.

In short, it must be very strong.

However, this lottery is a bit unsettling. What if I win the other 50%? Wouldn't that be a complete waste of this corpse...?

After a brief hesitation, Uchiha Natsu took a deep breath and then thought to himself, "I'll take it!"

—A new bloodline limit will be drawn, and it will be added randomly.

Before he could even feel joy, Uchiha Natsu's expression suddenly froze.

The typing had barely stopped when he felt an intense pain emanating from every inch of his skin and every piece of flesh.

This kind of pain was something Uchiha Natsu had never experienced in either of his lives.

"Ugh!!"

Uchiha Natsu couldn't help but let out a low, painful cry, and he collapsed to the ground instantly.

This pain lasted for about ten minutes before it gradually began to subside.

Once the pain completely subsided, Uchiha Natsu felt a great sense of relief, his body drenched in sweat.

When I opened my eyes, the whites of my eyes were covered with bloodshot veins.

The Mangekyou Sharingan appeared automatically, emitting a faint red glow.

Soon after, his breathing calmed down, and Uchiha Natsu's Sharingan faded away.

"This is... Wood Release?"

Feeling the new power surging within him, Uchiha Natsu was overjoyed.

Wood Release is a powerful bloodline limit possessed by the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju.

With this technique, one could even defeat Madara Uchiha, who controlled the Nine-Tailed Beast.

Back then, Madara Uchiha used his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan to control the Nine-Tails, and even with Madara and the beast combined, they couldn't defeat Hashirama Senju's Wood Release.

This shows just how powerful Wood Release ninjutsu is.

Using the Wooden Dummy Technique to capture the Nine-Tailed Fox is like catching a chick.

Uchiha Natsu felt the Wood Release technique generated by the fusion of Water and Earth Release within his body, and then frowned.

Although he possessed the Wood Release bloodline limit, he did not know how to use any Wood Release ninjutsu.

In the past few years, I have only learned the basic five nature transformation ninjutsu, and I have not learned any ninjutsu related to bloodline limits.

Because in Uchiha Natsu’s view, there was no way he could obtain any other bloodline limits.

Moreover, the Wood Release ninjutsu has apparently been lost, and the only scroll that records it should be with Yamato of Root.

"I can only test the true extent of my Wood Release techniques once I obtain Wood Release ninjutsu," Uchiha Natsu pondered.

Different bloodline limits have different effects when used on different people.

For example, Yamato's Wood Release is worlds apart from Hashirama Senju's Wood Release.

Uchiha Natsu did not possess the Sage Body, so he guessed that his Wood Release might not be as strong as the First Hokage's.

Even so, he was overjoyed.

If he can obtain Wood Release, then the inhuman pain he suffered before will not have been in vain.

The sweat on his body had dried, and Uchiha Natsu put the scroll away. He then used Earth Release to return to the town.

Honestly, I've been using Wildfruit Reading to read and follow my favorite books lately. It has easy source switching, multiple reading voice options, and works on both Android and Apple devices.

At this time, the Uchiha clan members had already assisted Uchiha Natsu's shadow clones in clearing the battlefield.

The residents of the town were overjoyed, just like the residents of the previous town, and grateful for the merits of the Konoha ninja.

However, these Uchiha clan members all seemed very uneasy, and their expressions were unnatural.

Given their personalities, almost none of them were very good at handling such situations, so they all became quiet and reserved.

Uchiha Natsu used shadow clones to deal with the residents.

The residents then learned that it was Uchiha Natsu who led the Uchiha clan to protect their homeland.

Immediately, all the residents regarded Uchiha Natsu and the Uchiha clan ninjas as heroes.

The other Uchiha clan members all felt embarrassed.

When they were kindly thanked, they kept avoiding eye contact.

Just standing here makes me feel like I'm sitting on pins and needles, and I want to escape as soon as possible.

After dealing with the villagers, Uchiha Natsu had Tetsuka escort his father back to Konoha.

In gratitude, the town's residents even contributed a horse-drawn carriage.

This was a kind gesture from the residents, so Uchiha Natsu accepted it without hesitation.

After arranging things for Uchiha Aomori, Uchiha Natsu smoothly took over the leadership position and led the Uchiha clan to rest in the town for one night.

The next day, a dozen or so Uchiha left the town together and headed to the next Uchiha battlefield.

The battlefields are far apart, and most of the time is spent traveling between them.

And the results are obvious.

Over the course of a month, Uchiha Natsu led the Uchiha clan in clearing out multiple battlefields.

This time, Uchiha Natsu didn't even need to make a move himself.

The growing number of Uchiha clansmen surrounding him enabled him to defeat enemies on his own initiative.

Uchiha Natsu himself was only responsible for intercepting and killing any who slipped through the net.

After clearing several more battlefields, Uchiha Natsu discovered that all the enemy ninjas who had been confronting the Uchiha clan had retreated in advance.

In the previous battles, Uchiha Natsu did not let any enemy go unpunished.

Even if it's a low-ranking ninja, they will never be let go.

There was also an intention to suppress the news, so that the other side wouldn't know about his team's existence so quickly.

But the truth cannot be hidden forever, and they were eventually discovered by the enemy.

Now, apart from the largest battlefield where clan leader Fugaku is located, all the remaining Uchiha ninjas have gathered.

The war that belonged to the Uchiha clan has basically ended.

The Uchiha clan actually suffered considerable losses, with seven genin, four chunin, and one jonin losing their lives.

Without Uchiha Natsu, this number might have been ten times higher.

Therefore, Uchiha Natsu's reputation within the Uchiha clan has completely reversed from its initial state.

However, the Uchiha clan did not come away empty-handed.

At least several genin were thus able to awaken the Sharingan, becoming new blood.

Uchiha Natsu himself also gained a great deal.

Over the past month, Uchiha Natsu has collected the corpses of 7 Jonin, 21 Chunin, and hundreds of Genin.
