Chapter 152: One More Wife & Child — Lavish Rewards!
Hearing the system prompt in his mind, Oborotsuki immediately broke into a delighted grin.
Just as he had predicted.
As long as he claimed Mikoto and little Sasuke, the system would grant him rewards immediately.
Now that Konoha could no longer tolerate Mikoto—or her young son—there was nowhere left for them to go.
With no other options, Mikoto had chosen to stay by his side. Since it was mutual and consensual, Oborotsuki felt no psychological burden whatsoever.
Besides, he hadn't exactly done nothing.
Helping the Uchiha clan eliminate Danzō and his Root organization—allowing Mikoto to take her revenge—wasn't that the greatest contribution?
Thinking of this, Oborotsuki's movements grew more intense. His hands firmly pressed down on Mikoto's head, guiding her rhythm.
…
The moon was bright and the stars sparse. A night wind howled past the cave entrance.
Little Sasuke began to fuss and cry from hunger, forcing Oborotsuki to end his intimate session with Mikoto earlier than planned.
Overall, the experience had been quite satisfactory for both sides.
At the very least, the blissful expression on Mikoto's face made that clear.
While Mikoto went to feed and soothe little Sasuke, Oborotsuki stepped aside and opened his attribute panel to check.
In the earlier battle against Shisui and Itachi—facing two Mangekyō Sharingan users at once—Oborotsuki had not only handled everything with ease but had even nearly one-shot Itachi.
Even he himself had been somewhat surprised by the result.
A large part of it was due to the overwhelming power of his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan—practically invincible.
But no matter how strong an ability is, it still requires chakra as its foundation.
And chakra was something Oborotsuki had in abundance.
His current senjutsu chakra reserves had reached around 650 cards, while his regular chakra pool was even higher—surpassing 800 cards.
Such an astonishing amount of chakra likely exceeded that of lower-tier tailed beasts.
But Oborotsuki was far from satisfied. He wanted more. He wanted to become even stronger.
Closing his attribute panel, he opened his system inventory.
Inside lay the two gift packs he had received earlier.
Oborotsuki extracted them and used them without hesitation.
[Ding! Congratulations! You have opened the Concubine Gift Pack and received: Sharingan Evolution Gift Pack ×1! Weapon Enhancement Card ×1!]
[Ding! Congratulations! Your number of offspring +1! You have received Offspring Gift Pack ×1! Please check your inventory!]
After using both gift packs, he received four rewards in total.
The Resurrection Pill was exactly what the name implied—a miraculous pill capable of bringing someone back from death, even after they had already passed away.
But for now it wasn't needed, so Oborotsuki set it aside.
He extracted the Chakra Pill (50 cards) and consumed it immediately. Feeling the surging, majestic chakra flood into his body, his gaze shifted to the remaining two rewards.
[Sharingan Evolution Gift Pack] After use, randomly grants one of the following:
Tomoe Sharingan Evolution Card (instantly evolves 1–3 tomoe Sharingan to Mangekyō)
Mangekyō Sharingan Evolution Card
Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan Evolution Card etc.
…
Oborotsuki had never been fond of luck-based packs.
Especially since his Sharingan was already Eternal Mangekyō. The next step would be Rinnegan—but that required an Eternal Mangekyō Evolution Card.
"One-in-three chance to draw the Eternal one, huh?"
"Let's see how my luck holds up…"
Oborotsuki thought to himself, then decisively used the Sharingan Evolution Gift Pack.
[Ding! Congratulations! You have opened the Sharingan Evolution Gift Pack and received: Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan Evolution Card ×1! Please check your inventory!]
Jackpot on the first try!
"My luck's not bad at all."
Looking at the seven-colored glowing card in his inventory, Oborotsuki's lips curved into a satisfied smile.
He didn't use it immediately.
This wasn't a suitable place for a breakthrough.
His gaze shifted to the last reward: Weapon Enhancement Card. He was very familiar with these.
His Decapitation Greatsword was currently at +2 enhancement and had unlocked the Bloodthirst characteristic, allowing it to self-repair through bloodshed.
It had even evolved to a level comparable to Samehada—capable of feeding power back to its wielder.
He was curious what +3 would bring.
Oborotsuki summoned the Decapitation Greatsword and decisively used the Weapon Enhancement Card.
Instantly, the cave was filled with dazzling light. The blade radiated streams of multicolored brilliance.
The entire weapon seemed to undergo a qualitative transformation—its surface becoming crystal-clear and radiant.
After a few seconds, flame-like patterns began to appear along the blade.
Moreover, the weapon now emitted an astonishing aura—as though real flames were burning right before his eyes.
[Ding! Congratulations! Your weapon "Decapitation Greatsword" has been enhanced to Tier 3, unlocking the new characteristic "Divine Fire."]
[Divine Fire] Characteristic unlocked at Weapon Enhancement Tier 3. Every swing of the weapon that strikes an enemy will automatically unleash three trails of Divine Fire simultaneously attacking the target. Divine Fire incinerates all things—its power is boundless! The flames do not dissipate; instead, their strength grows continuously with prolonged battle! The effect lasts until the weapon's wielder is defeated.
…
Reading the description of this characteristic, Oborotsuki was genuinely shocked.
"Divine Fire… gets stronger the longer the fight lasts!"
"So as long as I can keep fighting without falling, doesn't that basically make me invincible?"
Of course, these were just the characteristic's description.
Its actual performance in real combat would need to be tested in battle!
Regardless, Oborotsuki was extremely satisfied with this round of rewards. With a pleased expression, he stored away the now flame-red, flowing-light-colored Decapitation Greatsword.
The brilliant light and scorching heat in the cave vanished instantly.
Oborotsuki noticed Mikoto staring at him in astonishment.
"This weapon is a famous blade. It grows stronger through battle."
"It just broke through to a new level earlier."
Oborotsuki shrugged and explained casually.
Hearing this, Mikoto didn't question it further. She had heard legends of the Sage of Six Paths' divine tools—strange and miraculous things weren't uncommon in the ninja world. As a ninja, she was used to such phenomena.
"You said earlier there were some things you needed to explain to me. Can we talk now?"
Mikoto glanced at little Sasuke in her arms.
The little one had fallen back asleep after being fed and soothed.
For the next few hours, there was no need to worry about him interrupting their "deeper conversation."
