"Whoosh." In
a small forest adjacent to Emperor Soul Village,
a black figure wearing a hooded coat darted swiftly through the undergrowth. The crisscrossing branches seemed to automatically clear a path for the black figure, allowing for unimpeded movement.
Suddenly, the black figure stopped, crouching on a thick tree trunk. With a slight push of its feet, a "whoosh" sound rang out. The figure vanished instantly, leaving only the leaves fluttering in the air.
The next moment, the figure reappeared in mid-air, its body suspended upside down, rapidly spinning 360 degrees.
"Whoosh whoosh." Seven or eight black kunai shot out from the figure's hands in an instant.
Several "thud" sounds rang out as they struck objects.
At the same time, the figure performed a backflip and landed on the ground.
Looking at the seven or eight kunai that had been shot out, each one was covered in leaves and fixed to the tree trunk.
"Hehe, two months have passed since I awakened my martial soul, and I'm pretty familiar with its power now."
The black figure opened his hood, revealing long, blue-silver hair, which, combined with his fair and delicate face, made him quite endearing.
Who else could this be but the zu zong? Since stealing Uchiha Itachi's taijutsu and chakra (soul power) control techniques two months ago, the zu zong had been practicing taijutsu and various soul power control techniques such as water walking and tree climbing every day.
The Imperial Soul Village also had a blacksmith, and the kunai was custom-made by Old Tom at the zu zong's request.
At night, the zu zong used the "scumbag version" of the Soul Power Meditation Method to cultivate his soul power and released his martial soul, the Blue Silver Emperor, to sense the surrounding Blue Silver Grass aura. It had to be said that the effect was excellent; the Blue Silver Emperor truly lived up to its reputation as the only emperor among Blue Silver Grass.
Within the entire Imperial Soul Village, wherever there was Blue Silver Grass, the zu zong could clearly perceive the specific situation in every corner. If it weren't for his fear of Tang Hao's existence, the zu zong could even sense the Holy Soul Village at any time.
He exhaled a soft breath, and Zu Zong's lips curled into a slight smile. He could clearly feel that he had become stronger at a rate visible to the naked eye over the past month.
"System, check my personal panel."

The
zu zong nodded in satisfaction, shouting in his mind, "Not bad. Just considering basic strength, I remember when I first stole Itachi's taijutsu, it was only around 40. I didn't expect it to reach 100 in just two months of familiarization and training."
[Ding, a pair of Sharingan eyes have been detected in the system's inventory. Would you like to fuse them into a second martial soul?]
"Fuse the Sharingan? Won't it blind me?!"
To be honest, the zu zong was conflicted. When he stole Itachi's Sharingan, Itachi was almost blind! In the original story, it was transplanted into Sasuke, and only after the eye power fused did he gain permanent sight. This was also the reason the zu zong hadn't fused it.
[Ding, host, no need to worry. The Sharingan transplanted by the system is in the three-tomoe state, with no side effects, and there is no blindness problem. It can also awaken a second time into the Mangekyou Sharingan.]
"Damn it, you should have said so earlier! You damn system, hurry up and fuse it!"
[Ding, Sharingan fusion in progress. Note: Once a martial soul is fused, it cannot be reversed.] [
Beep, Sharingan fusion complete. Congratulations to the host for awakening your second martial soul: Sharingan.]
The zu zong's eyes closed slightly, then opened again, his eyes turning blood red, the three tomoe in his pupils rotating counterclockwise.
Taking out a kunai, the clan leader saw his current appearance through its smooth surface: a handsome face, long blue-silver hair, and crimson eyes, adding a touch of sinister charm to his already dashing features.
The zu zong slapped his thigh and couldn't help but exclaim, "Damn, this is a national calamity!"
[Ding, the host has already possessed the Martial Soul Blue Silver Emperor and Sharingan. Due to the host's physical limitations, a third Martial Soul cannot be fused!]
"Only two Martial Souls? That's no big deal!"
After all, being powerful is temporary, but being handsome is for life.
Besides, even the ordinary three-tomoe Sharingan can control some ordinary people. Once it awakens into the Mangekyou Sharingan, its power will be incredibly strong, and even more terrifying is the ability to create unpredictable and bizarre eye techniques!
Kotoamatsukami, awesome, right—permanently changing a person's will, does it hurt? Does it feel good? Good boy, call me daddy.
Kamui, awesome, right—a space-time ninjutsu that combines offense and defense, cough cough! I'll let you run 39 meters first, I promise I won't cut you.
Tsukuyomi, pretty awesome too—a divine interrogation technique, it'll make you cry for your father in pain!
Amaterasu, I guess, I think it should be awesome, right? —The immortal black flame, known as the "strongest physical attack," I don't think I've ever seen it burn anyone to death, so I won't comment!
And many other powerful eye techniques, the most important one is that it can awaken the ultimate eye technique—Gundam, oh no! It's Susanoo, if it can evolve to its complete form, hmph! I wouldn't trade it for a six-winged angel.
[Ding, the condition for the Sharingan's second awakening is: absorbing a soul ring of more than 100,000 years!]
At this moment, the zu zong , immersed in his daydreams, didn't pay much attention.
The zu zong casually replied in his mind: "It's okay, it's just a 100,000-year soul ring!"
"Ding!" The kunai in the clan leader's hand fell to the ground, wait, he seemed to have overlooked something!
"System, if I may ask, is it possible to steal a 100,000-year soul ring?"
[Ding, the host can!]
Upon hearing this, the zu zong breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good, that's good!"
It's good that it works; otherwise, the Sharingan would be reduced to a high-level "Purple Demon Eye" within the next ten years!
That would be a complete waste of a martial soul. In ten years, he doesn't know if he can even defeat a 100,000-year-old soul beast. How can he show off, flirt with girls, or fight Tang San then?
[Ding, Soul Rings are the lifeblood of a soul beast and cannot be directly stolen. Only soul rings that have been sacrificed, newly born divine-given soul rings, unabsorbed soul rings, and soul rings already absorbed by the soul master (extremely low probability, and requires the soul master to be in their weakest state) can be stolen.]
"Damn it! You damn system, you tricked me!"
×××
The zu zong spent the entire day familiarizing himself with the Sharingan's abilities. And it must be said, some of the built-in genjutsu are really good. He can easily cast them on ordinary people, and even opponents of the same level can be confused, causing them to lose their focus briefly.
By the time the zu zong finished his training and returned to Emperor Soul Village, it was already evening.
Arriving at Old Tom's house, Old Tom had already prepared dinner.
Old Tom chuckled as he served the clan leader a steaming bowl of food, feeling quite pleased with himself.
"You little rascal," he said with a smile, "you've really changed since awakening your martial soul! You cultivate so diligently every day, but remember to balance work and rest!"
The zu zong rolled his eyes. *If I really slack off, I'll probably get a beating from you again.*
*You old rascal!
* So the zu zong replied somewhat perfunctorily, "Yes, yes, don't worry about it, I'll be careful."
Then the zu zong looked around. The room had been completely renovated, and the furniture had been replaced with new ones—the kind he'd bought for Old Tom after stealing—no, borrowing—two large and one small bags of gold soul coins from Flander.
To avoid arousing suspicion from Old Tom, zu zong changed into a "borrowed" expensive black outfit (from the 300-pound female shop owner's clothing store) and secretly went to Notting City to play the role of a rich second-generation. He immediately intimidated a small decoration shop owner, and in exchange for an extra 20 gold soul coins (since it wasn't his money, he didn't care about spending it), he got the owner to cooperate in a performance.
The specific situation was that our zu zong had decided to join the Spirit Hall in the future, and the furniture and decoration costs were subsidized by the Spirit Hall for the "kind and amiable" village elder, Old Tom.
There was no way around it; our zu zong was just a filial son.
After a short while, the food was served, and the old man and the young man ate together, enjoying each other's company.
"Grandpa Tom, what are we having today?"
"Notting Academy will be starting soon, so tonight Grandpa made your favorite turtle soup!"
