After taking a shower and washing away the sweat from his body, Yagami lay down on his bed.
"System. I want to draw a lottery."
Thinking back on everything that happened with Danzo, Yagami's thirst for power flared hotter than ever.
If he were strong enough, Danzo wouldn't have dared to posture in front of him.
Even though Danzo hadn't tried to extort him directly, the whole situation left Yagami extremely annoyed.
[Okay, master!]
The system's crisp voice echoed, and the lottery screen unfolded before him.
The lottery interface displayed five tiers: low-level, primary, intermediate, advanced, and top-level.
Yagami currently had 1,000 Prestige Points from completing his promotion mission—just enough for ten low-level draws or one primary draw.
"Use the primary draw."
After ten years without the system, he had already passed the newbie phase.
There was no reason to waste points on weak, low-tier draws.
[Ding! 1000 Prestige Points consumed. Remaining: 2.]
[Beginning primary lottery… starting now.]
The system's lottery used a guaranteed ten-draw format.
Ten cards flew out of the primary section, arranged themselves neatly into two rows, and began flipping over one by one.
[Ding! Congratulations to the master for obtaining: Sanji's lighter, a bar of soap, a hammer, ten packets of French fries, a samurai sword.]
The first row revealed itself fully.
Yagami frowned.
All useless items.
Nothing that strengthened him in any meaningful way.
The second row flipped next.
[Ding! Congratulations to the master for obtaining: a bouquet of roses, a low-level attribute card (green), a copy of Icha Icha Paradise, 2000 ryō, and a Uzumaki Clan Physique Card (blue).]
"Uzumaki Clan Physique Card?"
Yagami's eyes locked onto the final card.
The only blue card.
The guaranteed reward.
(Uzumaki Clan Physique Card: Grants the unique vitality-rich physique of the Uzumaki clan.)
"Sure enough… God is helping me!"
His heart thumped wildly.
His biggest flaw—the one that limited him the most—was his poor chakra reserves.
And the very first lottery solved that fatal weakness.
[Would you like to fuse the Uzumaki Physique Card?]
"Fusion!"
The moment he agreed, the card dissolved into light and shot into his body.
A tingling sensation spread through him.
Just when he expected chakra to surge—
His body abruptly stilled.
"What?
The sensation… disappeared?"
He didn't feel a chakra increase at all.
[Integration of Uzumaki Physique requires approximately 5 hours. Please wait patiently.]
"I see!"
Relief washed over him.
As long as it wasn't a system fault, five hours was nothing—just a night's sleep.
Seeing the remaining items, Yagami said, "Use the low-level attribute card."
[Ding! The host has obtained 10 free attribute points.]
[Open the personal panel to distribute points.]
Yagami opened his panel.
— Personal Panel —
Host: Yagami
Spirit: 180 + (10)
Stamina: 186 + (10)

Chakra: Jōnin-level
Abilities: Bullet Time (super dynamic vision)
Skills: Basic Taijutsu, Wind Style: Vacuum Sword, Rasengan, Iai Slash, Flying Sword Slash, Atomic Slash, Atomic Hit Slash

Yagami used his 10 attribute points evenly: 5 to Spirit, 5 to Stamina.
Satisfied, he closed the system and drifted to sleep.
It was the most peaceful sleep he'd had in years.
The system's return washed away years of fear and anxiety.
…
The next morning.
Yagami woke lazily as sunlight warmed his face.
Opening his eyes, he immediately sensed something different.
"So this is… the Uzumaki physique."
He clenched his fists, excitement bubbling.
His body hadn't visibly changed since yesterday…
But the vitality, the stamina, and—most importantly—the chakra overflowing inside him—
It wasn't the same body at all.
His chakra reserves had multiplied dozens of times.
He pulled up his personal panel again.
Both his physical and mental stats had jumped by another 100 points.
"In future battles, I won't have to ration chakra so carefully."
Smiling, Yagami dressed quickly, filled with energy for the day.
