Naruto: I Survived Two Wars Without You, System!

After sensing that Onoki hadn't fled immediately, Kei Yamanaka shifted his focus to the System Interface.

With such a lucky haul, shouldn't he rush to convert all these rewards into real strength?

Isn't it only fair he cash this in for power?

"System, activate the Purple-Tier Trait Conversion Card on the Black-Tier Trait [Omen of Misfortune]."

[Conversion complete. Congratulations, Host! You have obtained the Purple-Tier Trait 'Divine Spectacle'.]

Divine Spectacle (Purple): Designate two individuals other than the trait owner—whose power does not exceed ten times that of the trait owner—to engage in a one-on-one battle. Neither participant may refuse, and both will fight at full strength without interference from others. The trait owner can adjust both fighters' combat strength up or down by a maximum of 15%. The battle ends only when one side dies or the trait owner removes its effect.

"Divine Spectacle? Is this some divine pastime?" Kei mused, tapping his chin as a smirk tugged at his lips.

Although this trait cannot affect himself and must target others, and those targets cannot possess power more than ten times his own,

Across the entire ninja world, just how many people could possibly surpass him by tenfold?

Perhaps only the legendary member of the Otsutsuki Clan, Chiya, who supposedly consumed countless God Tree fruits, transcended death itself, abandoned his physical body, and crossed dimensions.

But then again, that person had already left the Naruto world entirely. How likely was it for someone like that to reappear before him?

For Kei, the power of this trait surpassed even that of many Red-tier traits!

It wasn't merely an invincible crowd-control technique—it was essentially an enemy force-reduction tool!

If Momoshiki and Kinshiki Otsutsuki dared to appear together in front of him now, he'd make them fight each other right on the spot.

Boost Kinshiki's combat power by 15%, reduce Momoshiki's by 15%.

Under the effects of this powerful forced control, Kinshiki would have no choice but to fight with everything he had, unable to willingly allow Momoshiki to absorb him.

Momoshiki might finally get the chance to experience firsthand the classic underdog maneuver — *Kogane no Mai*.

After carefully reviewing the exact usage methods of the conceptual keyword [Divine Spectacle] within his mind,

Kei turned his attention toward the recently acquired Randomly Linked Trait Draw Opportunity and used it immediately.

[Randomly linked trait: Handsome. Congratulations, Host! You have obtained the Blue-Tier Trait 'Pyromancer of Hearts.'] 

Pyromancer of Hearts (Blue): Enhances appearance, abilities, eloquence, temperament, affability, overall aura, personal charm, verbal expression, and attractiveness toward the opposite sex; lowers the chance of getting the axe—literally.

"Hmm... I guess... Look... My looks can't lag behind forever, right?"

Looking at the three remaining blue-tier traits on his Personal Panel,

Kei came up with an excuse not even he fully believed before activating the blue-tier trait [Pyromancer of Hearts].

They always say—short name, big impact.

Though the description of [Pyromancer of Hearts] wasn't particularly long, the torrent of knowledge upon activation was anything but brief.

Alongside numerous speech techniques, there were also lessons on fashion choices, posture during movement or rest, dining etiquette, and refined manners.

Even the proper way to pose for photos or videos was covered.

Kei Yamanaka had never known such things before.

Who knew something as simple as eating or using the restroom could be so complicated?

[Detected compatibility between Blue-Tier Skill 'Handsome' and Blue-Tier Skill 'Pyromancer of Hearts.' Fusion available. Initiate fusion?]

"Fuse them now."

[Fusion complete! Congratulations, Host. You've obtained Purple-Tier Trait 'A Strong One Doesn't Fall to the Cleaver.']

A Strong One Doesn't Fall to the Cleaver (Purple): Nearly perfect facial features, immense power, every word and action capable of drawing others' attention—significantly boosts charisma, appeal, eloquence, affability, and attraction to the opposite sex. The stronger one becomes, the lower the chance of falling victim to a cleaver incident.

"Eloquence, huh? Putting points into this feels like a waste. These past few decades, all I've mastered is the refined art of spitting phlegm, and besides..."

Looking at the continuously dropping cleaver probability rate, Kei honestly didn't know what expression to make.

He wasn't like Cheng Ge, who had seduced an entire class full of girls.

What were the chances he'd ever run into cleaver trouble?

The system just never got him right!

Gathering his thoughts, he turned back to examine the traits interface.

Kei used the most important upgrade—the Red Skill Listing—on his core trait [World Traveler]!

It was the talent that brought him into this world and had always stayed with him.

If not on this, then where else would he use it?

[Congratulations, Host! Red Skill Listing 'World Traveler' has successfully upgraded. Obtained Golden Skill Listing 'Multiversal World Traveler.']

The system notification rang out.

Before Kei even finished appreciating his newly-upgraded skill,

Another system notification followed immediately.

[Detected compatibility between Golden Skill Listing 'Multiversal World Traveler' and Purple-Tier Trait 'Space-Time Insight.' Fusion available. Initiate fusion?]

"Yes."

[Fusion complete! Congratulations, Host. You've obtained Golden Skill Listing 'Interdimensional Traveler.']

Interdimensional Traveler (Gold): A traveler favored by immense fortune, tempered by space-time energies, gaining the ability and extraordinary talent to perceive, capture, and record spatial-temporal coordinates across multiple worlds. Significantly increases soul strength, mental fortitude, growth speed, growth ceiling, time-space perception, and affinity with time-space dimensions.

Buzz—

As the system message faded,

Kei felt his mind suddenly explode.

An endless flood of insights about space-time surged in, while his spiritual power and physical form began transforming.

Already refined once by the Yin-Yang Sage Ascendant trait, his soul grew even denser and stronger!

Within, it appeared radiant, radiating a brilliant glow!

Pure, clear, crystalline and flawless!

Powerful, perfect, nearly solidified into physical form!

Previously, the already formidable spatial talents from the Space-Time Insight trait rose further, rising to a depth so profound that Kei was left spellbound.

Even though these insights were directly implanted by the system,

he still felt that strange disconnect—his mind understood, but his body hadn't caught up yet.

Under the effect of this overwhelming spatial talent,

the Pure Land world he had once faintly sensed, then lost track of afterward,

now clearly surfaced in his awareness.

There was no doubt that if he mastered this power within him, the mysterious Pure Land—so revered and unfathomable by the masses—would essentially become his backyard!

Even more surprising?

Right now, as long as Kei Yamanaka was willing to expend energy,

he could continuously enhance his Space Ripple Sensory Perception Ability. And given his current Chakra Reserves Amount,

this spatial perception could encompass the entire ninja world!

In other words,

he could be in Konoha one moment and appear in Cloud the very next!

"Detecting other worlds requires even more chakra expenditure?"

Kei Yamanaka's eyebrows slightly furrowed.

His Chakra Reserves Amount was absolutely unparalleled in today's ninja world.

Even Kushina, who had complete control over the Nine-Tails and became a perfect Jinchuriki,

had less chakra than him!

Yet according to the knowledge imparted by the system,

even if he fully activated [Sage Mode], finding a portal to another world would still be like searching for a needle in a haystack.

Hmm...

Ten-Tails? Dragon Vein? The Greer Stone? Moryo?

One by one, powerful energy sources flashed through Kei's mind.

Of all these options, which one would be the easiest to obtain.
