Chapter 107: Completed a hidden achievement?
[Talent: Smoke-Smoke Fruit (Fragmented)]
[Grade: B (Kage-level mid-stage)]
[Talent Introduction: Logia-type Devil Fruit ability.
Can produce smoke from the body and control it, as if it were an extension of one's limbs.
Because it is a fragmented version, it cannot turn the user's body into smoke to ignore physical attacks.
Due to the side effects of Devil Fruit abilities, contact with seawater will cause physical paralysis.]
[...]
As expected, it was a Logia-type Devil Fruit ability just like the Snow-Snow Fruit.
Both could manipulate substances in nature.
However, in terms of actual circumstances, it might not be as practical as the Snow-Snow Fruit.
The combat effectiveness of smoke was definitely weaker than the Snow-Snow Fruit.
But compared to the other two fruits with unclear meanings, it was definitely much more practical.
[Other talent introductions—]
[Stitch-Stitch Fruit (C+): Paramecia-type Devil Fruit ability.
Can stitch any object together, ignoring certain physical rules.
Due to the side effects of Devil Fruit abilities, contact with seawater will cause physical paralysis.]
[Glare-Glare Fruit (C+): Paramecia-type Devil Fruit ability.
Can see over an extremely vast distance, and the line of sight can bend.
When making contact with a target, one can even see the memories the target is thinking of at that moment.
Due to the side effects of Devil Fruit abilities, contact with seawater will cause physical paralysis.]
[...]
The first one didn't look like a combat-type talent; stitching could be used in medicine or one could choose to be a tailor.
The second one was also an auxiliary talent; the ability to see through people's hearts would obviously play a unique role during interrogation.
But other than that, there was nothing worth paying attention to.
"Husband, give the child a name."
Nakano Itsuki said in a soft voice.
Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye nodded slightly, and after a moment of contemplation, he thought of a very fitting name.
"Let's call him Senju Smoker."
"He will possess a unique talent, the ability to control mist."
Nakano Itsuki looked at the child in her arms in a daze.
"Control mist..."
"That's right."
Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye nodded, gently stroking Nakano Itsuki's smooth hair.
[Senju Smoker]
[Talent: Smoke-Smoke Fruit (Fragmented) (B), Senju Bloodline (C-)]
[Aptitude: B- (Kage-level early-stage)]
[...]
Like his sister Monet, he awakened a new Kekkei Genkai.
And his aptitude was also among the lowest of Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye's children.
This was also within Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye's expectations.
The fact that the Nakano sisters' children could reach a B-grade level of talent was entirely due to Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye's bloodline and talent.
After all, the Nakano sisters were just ordinary people, not even Genin.
The only thing Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye had slightly looked forward to, their identity as princesses of a fallen nation, was not reflected in the system at all.
He was slightly disappointed, but Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye didn't care much.
The children were still young and had room to grow in the future.
As long as he persevered, with the help of Subaru's talent, his children's aptitudes could all be improved with infinite possibilities.
Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye just needed to shield his children from the wind and rain until they grew up.
[Ding, offspring talent confirmed.]
[Randomly feeding back rewards to the host—]
[Congratulations to the host, obtained Random Offspring Talent +1.]
[...]
Feedback as expected.
Although he felt a bit disappointed that there was no improvement for himself at all.
But it was also a good thing that his children were getting improved.
[Ding, offspring locked as 'Senju Inuyasha.Senju Bloodline'.]
[Talent upgrade complete.]
[C- (Jonin early-stage) upgraded to C (Jonin mid-stage).]
[...]
Since big brother Sesshomaru had it, how could little brother Inuyasha be left out?
Come to think of it, he hadn't seen these two little guys in the courtyard earlier; where did they run off to play?
Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye's thoughts drifted slightly, and suddenly the system's notification sound rang in his ears again.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the hidden achievement—Five Blessings Arriving (Five children born within three days)]
[Reward: Host aptitude, strength, talent grade +1, random five offspring talent grades +1, Offspring Talent Upgrade Pill]
[...]
This...?
Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye widened his eyes.
He had been disappointed just a moment ago, but he didn't expect such a sudden surprise!
He looked carefully at the conditions for completing the special achievement, and suddenly a doubt arose in his heart.
"System, can this achievement be completed repeatedly?"
If it could, then he would be rich.
As long as he adjusted the due dates and let his wives get pregnant at the same time—although it would make him very exhausted during this period—if it meant gaining strength, every sacrifice would be worth it.
[This achievement can only be completed once.]
The system coldly dashed Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye's hopes.
Forget it.
This surprise was already enough.
The achievement rewards were quickly injected into Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye's body.
First was the improvement in aptitude.
[Aptitude upgrade complete.]
[B+ (Kage-level peak) upgraded to A- (Super-Kage level early-stage)]
[...]
He had finally stepped into the threshold of the Super-Kage level, only two realms away from the Six Paths level.
But the higher the aptitude, the harder it was to improve.
Even a special achievement like "Five Blessings Arriving" only improved it by one level.
He didn't know what kind of achievements he would need to reach to improve his aptitude further.
Or wait until Subaru grew up and eat the glowing dishes he made to improve his aptitude.
Next was the improvement in strength.
[Strength upgrade complete.]
[B+ (Kage-level peak) upgraded to A- (Super-Kage level early-stage)]
[...]
Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye felt a tyrannical power surging within his body, giving him an extremely intense feeling of swelling, wanting to vent this power out.
But this was obviously not a suitable place.
If he were to vent it indiscriminately, he feared that the Nakano sisters, who were ordinary people, and the five children who had just been born into this world would all perish here.
He suppressed this surging power.
Next was the improvement in bloodline power.
[Ding, host random talent locked as 'Wood Release'.]
[Talent upgrade complete.]
[B (Kage-level mid-stage) upgraded to B+ (Kage-level peak)]
[...]
He didn't get Sage Body, but it was not bad to have his Wood Release talent improved.
After all, Wood Release was the combat method he used the most at present.
His upgrades were over.
Although it was fast, the improvement was significant.
Because he had officially become a Super-Kage level powerhouse from a Kage-level one!
This was a major threshold.
It distinguished Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye from other Kage-level powerhouses.
Next.
It was time to randomly improve the talents of five offspring.
[Ding, offspring locked as 'Senju Senju Senju Niwu.Senju Bloodline'.]
[Talent upgrade complete.]
[B+ (Kage-level peak) upgraded to A- (Super-Kage level early-stage), transformed and evolved into 'Sage Body'.]
[...]
