Chapter 2, First Lottery Draw: I Became an Unofficial Member of the Uchiha Clan?
At this moment, in Kakashi Hatake's understanding, although ninjas with bloodline limits are undoubtedly much stronger than ordinary ninjas, they are not to the point that ordinary ninjas are completely unable to match them.
For example, the Third Hokage, who is known as the strongest Hokage, was still a formidable figure in the ninja world even without a bloodline limit, and his own teacher, the Fourth Hokage, was a commoner ninja who earned the title of Konoha's Yellow Flash.
Among the four Hokage, only the First Hokage possessed the Wood Release ninjutsu bloodline limit. Even the Second Hokage, who was also from the Senju clan, did not have a bloodline limit, yet he still became a powerful figure who dominated the ninja world.
So fundamentally, Kakashi Hatake doesn't believe that ninjas necessarily need to have a bloodline limit.
Meanwhile, inside a house in Konoha Village, a boy who looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old was wearing a Konoha-style Chunin vest, with short hair, a handsome face, and a look of surprise on his face.
He just finished writing his tenth diary entry; it's time for the raffle.
Yes, he is Kitahara Kaede, a modern man whose soul came from Earth.
When I woke up, I found myself to be an ordinary genin in this extremely dangerous world.
How ordinary are they? So ordinary that they have no bloodline limit whatsoever. In fact, the Kitahara family is not a large clan like the Sarutobi clan, which, although they do not have bloodline limits, has a profound heritage.
His parents were just ordinary people. His father was a regular Chunin who died in a mission a few years ago, leaving him and his mother, Kitahara Yoshiko, to depend on each other.
In terms of talent, he was only slightly better than the average person, which is why he was able to enter the Ninja Academy and, three years after graduation, naturally became a Chunin, a very ordinary Chunin.
Since he didn't have any bloodline limit or any special talent, Kitahara Kaede's original plan was to avoid taking the lead in everything. Based on what he knew about some major events in the ninja world, he hoped to avoid them as much as possible and live a few more years.
It's not that he lacked lofty ambitions; it's just that in this world of ninjas, this is the cruel reality.
Even if you have a bloodline limit, so what? You still have to be the reincarnation of the Sage of Six Paths' own son, otherwise you'll end up like Hyuga Neji.
The son of a savior is still a savior, and the son of a scapegoat is still a scapegoat.
But everything changed ten days ago when he got a diary system. As long as he recorded his diary every day for ten consecutive days, he could enter a lottery.
Today was his first time participating in a lottery, so he couldn't contain his excitement. He knew very well that if he had a chance to change his predetermined future, it would only be through this diary system.
"lottery!"
Kitahara Kaede silently recited in his heart, and soon a semi-transparent roulette wheel appeared in front of him, visible only to him. The rewards on it made Kitahara Kaede's eyes widen.
Wood Release, Byakugan, Sharingan, sealing techniques, Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique—many resources that are rare in the ninja world have now appeared on the roulette panel.
As the hands of the clock turned, hopes swept through Kitahara Kaede's mind, until the hands finally stopped.
"The standard bloodline of the Uchiha clan!"
Kitahara Kaede was taken aback. It wasn't the Sharingan, but rather the standard bloodline of the Uchiha clan.
What's going on here?
He thought for a moment and quickly came to a guess: according to the classification standards of this diary system, the bloodline of the Uchiha clan was one thing, and the Sharingan was another.
After all, one can possess the Sharingan even without the bloodline of the Uchiha clan, like Kakashi Hatake.
However, the price of doing so is that the Sharingan cannot be shut down normally, and Kakashi's chakra level has become a focus of ridicule for many people. His chakra level has even become a unit of measurement, known as "one ka".
Many people even thought that he had very little chakra, but in reality, while Kakashi Hatake's chakra wasn't particularly high, it was certainly not as low as it appeared.
The reason he is in this state is because an unstoppable Sharingan is constantly consuming his chakra, forcing him to become an assassin-type ninja.
While becoming an assassin-type ninja isn't necessarily a bad thing for a ninja, that only applies to the early stages of Naruto. In the later stages, assassins are fragile and become cannon fodder.
Those ninjas all seemed to have become body cultivators, each with an even more outrageous physique than the last.
However, if one possesses the standard bloodline of the Uchiha clan, then the situation is different. In other words, Kitahara Kaede may have already become an unofficial surviving member of the Uchiha clan at the genetic level.
Theoretically speaking, he could even awaken his own Sharingan.
He felt the chakra within his body increasing at a rate he could clearly perceive.
In a very short period of time, his chakra more than doubled.
It can be said that Kitahara Kaede has never felt such an abundant amount of chakra since he began training.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. The Uchiha clan is, after all, a descendant of the Sage of Six Paths. Although they cannot compare to the Senju clan, who inherited the Sage's body, they are only comparable to the Senju clan.
Compared to other ninja clans, their chakra reserves are still quite abundant; otherwise, Madara Uchiha wouldn't have been able to fight Hashirama Senju for so long.
Not to mention that Kitahara Kaede is just an ordinary person by blood, not even a member of a ninja clan.
As night fell, Kitahara Kaede had finally fused with most of the standard Uchiha clan's bloodline. His chakra reserves increased more than tenfold, making him comparable to a typical Jonin and breaking through the limits that Kitahara Kaede could never have reached before.
Moreover, given his current age, he can be said to have just entered a period of rapid development in his strength, and his chakra reserves will further increase in the future. The potential of this standard Uchiha clan bloodline has not yet been fully developed.
Most importantly, the quality of this chakra has improved by an unknown amount compared to the original.
It can be said that there have been earth-shattering changes in both quality and quantity. The same ninjutsu can be used with at least one level of power.
He could even feel that his talent had improved. He could clearly sense that his memory and comprehension had increased. Kitahara Kaede, who was originally just an ordinary person, could now be called a genius in a small circle.
How small is the scope? Currently, only he knows the answer!
Then Kitahara Kaede demonstrated his abilities again, thoroughly testing the improvement in his various strengths. He had only barely reached the Chunin level before, but now he was definitely on par with a Special Jonin and wouldn't be afraid to face ordinary Jonin.
Kitahara Kaede felt that the terrifying pressure that had been weighing on his heart for years had finally been fundamentally relieved.
Even in such a dangerous world, he has the opportunity to escape the role of cannon fodder and stand at the pinnacle of the ninja world.
