The sudden voice made Uchiha Yuzuru freeze.
"System?"
This was the first time he had heard the system's prompt since it appeared when he awakened his past life memories.
So much time had passed that he had almost forgotten about it.
"Detected a special bloodline clan member, activating the Yotsuki bloodline..."
"So, the Uchiha clan now has members of the Yotsuki clan among them?"
"Given the current situation, it must have been through marriage..."
Uchiha Yuzuru muttered to himself.
Thinking this, Uchiha Yuzuru walked directly towards the gathering crowd.
"It's Clan Head Yuzuru! Clan Head Yuzuru is here!"
"Quick! Make way, let Clan Head Yuzuru go to the front."
"To receive Clan Head Yuzuru's blessing, these newlyweds are truly fortunate."
The crowd parted, and Uchiha Yuzuru slowly walked to the front of the two newlyweds.
The groom was a young man who looked to be around twenty years old. Seeing Uchiha Yuzuru approach, he immediately stood straight and bowed, saying, "Clan Head Yuzuru!"
Uchiha Yuzuru smiled, "There's no need to be so formal. What's your name?"
The young man immediately replied, "My name is Fu, and she is Yotsuki Sakura. We are teammates who perform missions together."
Uchiha Yuzuru nodded.
It was just as he had guessed; the system's prompt earlier must have been because of this girl named Yotsuki Sakura.
He hadn't expected that when a clan member married someone with another special bloodline, he would be able to awaken the corresponding bloodline.
It was truly an unexpected gain.
After a brief thought, Uchiha Yuzuru smiled and said, "I was just passing by and saw a wedding here, so I stopped to take a look. I hope I haven't disturbed you."
Uchiha Fu quickly waved his hand, "How could you? We are overjoyed to have you attend our wedding ceremony."
Seeing his excited expression, Yotsuki Sakura, who was beside him, grumbled, "Honestly, you weren't this happy when you married me."
Uchiha Fu raised his chin and said, "What's there to be happy about with marriage..."
Uchiha Yuzuru couldn't bear to watch any longer and smiled at Yotsuki Sakura, "Most of our clan members have this kind of personality. If he has a good relationship with you, then you have to interpret some of his emotional expressions in reverse."
Hearing this, Yotsuki Sakura burst into laughter and agreed, "Exactly! At first, I thought he hated me. If I hadn't persevered, I would never have known he liked me too."
"Hey! Why are you saying all this...?"
"I'll say it!" Yotsuki Sakura hugged Uchiha Fu's arm. "You know how happy I am to have finally won you over?"
Looking at the blushing Uchiha Fu, Uchiha Yuzuru said, "Alright, I have something else to attend to, so I'll be leaving now. I wish you both a happy marriage."
"Clan Head, take care!"
After bidding farewell to Uchiha Fu and Yotsuki Sakura, Uchiha Yuzuru didn't go straight home. Instead, he used Kamui in an secluded spot to enter the Kamui Dimension.
He then sat cross-legged and began to carefully sense the changes in his body.
As time passed, the smile on Uchiha Yuzuru's face grew wider.
Although his Yotsuki bloodline had only evolved by 1%, he could already feel the changes in his body.
The Yotsuki bloodline had increased the strength of his cells and enhanced his adaptability to Lightning Release chakra.
At the same time, due to the increased cell strength, his chakra reserves also saw a slight increase.
Uchiha Yuzuru was certain that if his Yotsuki bloodline evolved to 100%, his body would undergo a revolutionary transformation.
"Indeed, a body capable of cultivating Lightning Release Chakra Mode is absolutely extraordinary."
When he first arrived at Kumogakure, he had already begun cultivating Lightning Release Chakra Mode, but under that violent power, his cells couldn't withstand it at all.
Under Lightning Release Chakra Mode, cells couldn't increase their activity; instead, they would die directly.
From then on, Uchiha Yuzuru suspected that the bodies of the Third Raikage and A were definitely different from ordinary people.
Now it seemed that was indeed the case.
If the Uzumaki and Senju clans' bloodlines could enhance cell activity, thereby accelerating cell division to gain powerful chakra, recovery, and so on...
Then the Yotsuki clan's bloodline could greatly enhance cell strength, thereby gaining stronger defense, stamina, and so on.
Once cell strength reached a certain level, even if violent Lightning Release flowed through the body, the cells would not die from being unable to withstand it.
As for the cells' adaptability to Lightning Release chakra, it should have naturally evolved from the Yotsuki clan's continuous life in a place like the Land of Lightning.
After understanding this, Uchiha Yuzuru's eyes grew increasingly excited.
The Third Raikage's physique was already abnormal enough.
He fought against Onoki and tens of thousands of Iwa-nin for three days and three nights, battled a rampaging Eight-Tails until both were exhausted, and withstood a Wind Release: Rasenshuriken with an Edo Tensei body... But Uchiha Yuzuru had a hunch that once he evolved the Yotsuki bloodline to 100%, his physique would definitely be stronger than the Third Raikage's, not weaker!
"System, if I directly allow other clan members willing to join the Uchiha clan to change their surname and enter the family registry, can I receive rewards?"
"Only through marriage and having offspring can you receive corresponding rewards."
Uchiha Yuzuru had already anticipated the system's answer.
The family system increased population through the ties of marriage and blood relations.
If outsiders could simply change their surname and be counted as family members, that would indeed be too absurd.
"From the current situation, every time a Yotsuki clan member marries an Uchiha clan member, the evolution progress can increase by 1%. To increase the bloodline to 100%, I only need to marry one hundred Yotsuki clan members."
"No, if you count the offspring, that number would be even smaller."
Uchiha Yuzuru nodded to himself; such conditions were not harsh.
Many Yotsuki clan members had personalities similar to Yotsuki Sakura. Given the Uchiha clan members' good looks, achieving this goal shouldn't be difficult.
After understanding this, Uchiha Yuzuru stood up and left the Kamui Dimension.
Since the addition of other special bloodlines could grant him rewards, he should now seek out other special bloodlines to continuously improve himself.
If he strengthened his body with the bloodlines of the Senju and Uzumaki clans, strengthened his spirit with the Uchiha clan's bloodline, strengthened his bones with the Kaguya clan's bloodline... would he one day be able to obtain a perfect body like the Sage of Six Paths?
No, perhaps even stronger than the Sage of Six Paths.
After all, the bloodline of Otsutsuki Hamura still flowed in this shinobi world.
