Naruto: Naruto's Uchiha girlfriend is too arrogant

A full 100 draws!

This is the most "wealthy" moment Naruto Uzumaki has had since he obtained the system!

The last time I experienced this exhilarating feeling of accumulating a large amount of resources for a draw was in the Naruto mobile game, when I was saving up gold coins to recruit a high-ranking S-rank ninja.

So... after enduring and accumulating for so long, the wonderful moment to savor the fruits of our labor has finally arrived!

On a quiet night, after seeing off the still somewhat reluctant Satsuki, Naruto returned to his small apartment, took a deep breath to calm his slightly excited emotions, and prepared to activate the system lottery function that he hadn't used in a long time.

He even silently prayed in his heart, though he didn't know if it would work. "Old man, the Sage of Six Paths, please bless me with something good!"

After completing this somewhat comical ritual, Naruto focused his mind and decisively threw his accumulated points into the illusory lottery vortex!

【Points: 10050 → 9050】

The points from a single ten-draw were deducted instantly, and the next moment, ten cards floated neatly in front of Naruto's eyes.

Naruto was mentally prepared that the first few ten-pulls would likely be the usual "blue sky and white clouds" (meaning getting the same result as everyone else).

With a touch of nervousness, I opened the cards in front of me, and the first few lit up with a familiar glow.

Congratulations on obtaining: Chakra +5!

[Congratulations on obtaining: Basic Physical Skill Enhancement!]

[Congratulations on obtaining: 10 Soldier Rations Pills!]

[Congratulations on obtaining: 5 Fine Kunai!]

The rewards were all fairly practical, but nothing particularly surprising. Naruto wasn't discouraged; it was only his first ten-pull, and he kept a calm mindset.

However, just as he opened the next few cards, an unusual and unfamiliar reward came into view.

"rare!"

Congratulations on obtaining: Basic Natural Energy Affinity (+5%)!

[Item Description: Passive buff. Upon acquisition, the body will continuously and slowly absorb free-floating natural energy from the air. This state will greatly enhance your perception and adaptability to natural energy. If you successfully learn Sage Mode in the future, you will no longer need to meditate for extended periods to accumulate power; you can automatically absorb and accumulate natural energy to enter Sage Mode more quickly and extend its duration to some extent.]

What... what is this?!

Upon seeing the description of the reward, a figure immediately flashed through Naruto's mind—Jugo.

In the original work, the honest and gentle boy was born with a similar ability. His body could spontaneously absorb natural energy, but once he absorbed too much, he would enter a berserk "sage transformation" state, turning into a terrifying monster that lost its mind and only knew how to kill.

It was because he could not control this "divinely bestowed" curse that Jugo exiled himself to the deep mountains, living a life of isolation and utter loneliness, until he met Kimimaro.

Because of this ability... could I end up like Jugo, constantly losing control and going berserk?

Naruto doesn't want to become a ticking time bomb, especially now that he has someone important to protect by his side.

However, just as his worry arose, the system notification sounded again at the right time, providing a detailed and reassuring explanation.

[Note: The host has absolutely no need to worry about the outburst of natural energy.]

[The 'Natural Energy Affinity' provided by this system is a fully controllable passive enhancement state. The upper limit of natural energy that can be safely stored within the host's body is strictly matched to your own total chakra reserves.]

Based on your current chakra levels and 5% affinity, relying solely on passive absorption, it is estimated that it would take decades of continuous accumulation to reach natural energy saturation or even overflow (the so-called "berserk" threshold).

Upon hearing this, Naruto's eyes lit up, and a huge weight was lifted from his heart!

So that's how it is... My body is like a huge container that can safely hold a considerable amount of natural energy!

As for Jugo's situation... perhaps it's because his body's 'container' is too small, or the rate of absorption is too fast, causing the natural energy to quickly 'fill' or even 'overflow,' leading to his loss of control and rampage?

The system seemed to sense his understanding and continued to add more vivid metaphors.

[The understanding is basically correct. It can be compared to filling a container with water.]

[Jugo's situation: His body is like a fixed "small bucket," but the "faucet" (natural energy absorption rate) may be turned on very high, causing the water to overflow quickly (go berserk).]

[Host's situation: Your body itself is a vast 'lake,' and the flow of the 'faucet' (5% affinity) is relatively slow and completely controlled. Even with continuous infusion over the years, filling the entire 'lake' remains a distant dream. Furthermore, as your own chakra reserves increase (through training, growth, fusion with the Nine-Tails' chakra, etc.), the capacity of this 'lake' will continue to expand, and the upper limit of natural energy it can safely contain will also increase accordingly.]

Therefore, you don't need to have any concerns.

Now Naruto understood completely! This wasn't just a powerful buff, but an extremely safe and infinitely potential foundational ability! It wouldn't bring any side effects; it would only become stronger as he grew stronger!

Joy welled up in his heart again; this was definitely a rare and incredibly valuable reward! He was even more excited for the next draw.

Once I get to know Jiraiya, I'll definitely have to put training in Sage Mode on my agenda!

Naruto made a silent decision in his heart. This passive ability, [Natural Energy Affinity], was practically tailor-made for Sage Mode; it would be a shame not to make good use of it.

With this expectation in mind, he continued with the next draw.

However, Lady Luck didn't seem to be on his side the whole time. The second and third ten-pulls that followed mostly yielded the familiar blue and white lights. Although he did get some basic rewards like chakra boosts, taijutsu enhancements, and ninja tool replenishments, and even managed to get a [Basic Natural Energy Affinity (+5%)], raising his total affinity to 10%, no other truly eye-catching rewards appeared.

【Points: 9050 → 8050 → 7050 → 6050】

When the ten cards from the fourth ten-pull appeared, Naruto was mentally prepared for another "blue sky and white clouds" (a Chinese idiom meaning getting nothing good). He calmly clicked on them one by one...

Chakra level increased... Shuriken mastery... Soldier rations...

Just as he opened the seventh card, thinking that this ten-pull was going to end uneventfully—

"epic!"

A magnificent purple light suddenly burst forth!

A purple card appeared!! Naruto was overjoyed, his eyes fixed on the card emitting a purple light!

[Congratulations on obtaining: Stand Ability - Pearl Jam!]

[Item Description: This Stand takes the form of one or more cherry tomatoes. It has no offensive capabilities; its ability lies in its ability to be mixed into ingredients for cooking. After consuming food infused with it, Pearl Jam will enter the consumer's body, automatically diagnosing and curing any physical ailments, including a certain degree of mental fatigue.]
