When Zhang Miao proposed to the system to use Mikoto's Ninja Fragments for a lottery, the system's voice immediately rang out in his mind.
"[The host has a total 930 fragments. Due to the large amount, may the host confirm again that all of them will be used for the draw? ]"
"Yes, I will use all of them for the draw!"
When Zhang Miao gave a definite answer, the system's prompt also sounded.
"[Ding! Obtained 7-star Kage-level, Uchiha Fugaku Ninja Fragment x350. ]"
"[Obtained 9-star Super Kage-level, Uchiha Sasuke Ninja Fragment x216. ]"
"[Obtained 7-star Kage-level, Uchiha Itachi Ninja Fragment x192. ]"
"[Obtained Four-piece cookware set x28. ]"
"[Obtained 8 set of knives x16.]"
"[Obtained apron x7]."
"[Obtained Home Cooking cookbook x 6.]"
"[Obtained Land of Fire currency - 1,000 ryos x28.]"
"[Obtained Land of Fire currency - 5,000 ryos x6.]"
"[Obtained Land of Fire currency - 10,000 ryos x7.]"
"[Obtained 6-star Elite Jonin, Uzumaki Kushina Out-of-print Ninja Fragment x64. ]"
"[The system has put all the prizes into the system space. Host, please check it yourself. Today's lucky draw is over. Thank you for your patronage! ]"
Hearing this result, Zhang Miao's face immediately revealed a smile.
"As I thought!"
After several draws, Zhang Miao found that the things she got from the lucky draw were generally related to the ninjas whose fragments were used for the lottery draw!
From the result of Mikoto's lucky draw, the first thing she cared about the most was the fragments of her husband, Fugaku, and then her two sons. As for things like pots and knives, they were just extras.
The only thing that surprised Zhang Miao was that he actually got Kushina's Ninja Fragments, which showed that the bond between Mikoto and Kushina was really deep.
"She is really a good friend. When I recruit her, she will not be lonely after she is resurrected. Uh... What should I call her? Auntie? or BIg Sis?"
Thinking of this, Zhang Miao scratched his head in distress.
"Forget it, let's talk about this later. The main task now is to enhance my strength and recruit all the powerful Ninjas in Konoha!"
Among the powerful ninjas in Konoha, Kakashi and Guy had already been recruited. The "Ino-Shika-Cho" trio had also been recruited. He was working hard on the Uchihas, and Hiruzen was not a problem. It could be said that the situation was good.
The only thing that made Zhang Miao a little helpless was the Hyuga clan. As a powerful clan on par with the Uchiha clan, the pride of the Hyuga clan was engraved to their bones. They were way more xenophobic than the Uchihas.
The Uchiha clan belonged to the second-year tsundere type. They were cold on the outside, but hot on the inside. They ate soft but did not eat hard. The Hyugaclan was the exact opposite. It belonged to the type that was hot on the outside but cold on the inside. Under the seemingly polite appearance, there was a heart that refused people thousands of miles away.
The pride in Zhang Miao's bones was actually no less than that of the Hyugas. His previous life of being an orphan had made him deeply hide his fragile heart under his strong appearance. He would treat anyone who treat him well with great care, and ignore anyone who were cold to him.
Because of this, Hiruzen even specially called Zhang Miao to his office and asked him why he did not fit in with any group, and Zhang Miao only had one answer.
"Because we are not it the same boat at all."
Hiruzen was a very wise person. Not only did he understood the meaning of Zhang Miao's words, but he also understood Zhang Miao's feelings. Therefore, since then, he never talked about this topic with Zhang Miao again.
Zhang Miao's was determined that he wouldn't get any favor form the Hyugas, but this did not mean that he gave up them. He was just waiting for a suitable time.
Before the right time came, Zhang Miao would not consider the Hyugas for the time being, so the remaining famous clan in Konoha he hadn't approached were the Aburame clan and the Inuzuka clan.
Aburame clan's power came from their insects and Inuzuka had their ninja dogs. Their abilities came from external things. Zhang Miao felt that even if he recruited them, it would not improve him much, so he decided to put them aside for the time being.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Miao finally made a decision.
"In the future, I will focus my attention on the Uchihas. With Hiruzen as the supplement, I will find time to collect the Yamato and Danzo's ninja fragments. It is decided!"
After deciding his target, Zhang Miao began to carry out his plan step by step.
Of course, only Zhang Miao himself knew about this plan. In the eyes of outsiders, he was still as idle as before.
But unlike before, the way the villagers looked at Zhang Miao now became much gentler. Occasionally, there were some villagers who would greet him. Even when he went to buy some dangos, the owner would give him one or two extra servings for free.
This made Zhang Miao very puzzled.
"Did these people take the wrong medicine? Why are they so friendly to me? Is it because I haven't scolded them for being poor recently, so they are grateful to me?"
Since he couldn't figure it out, he simply didn't think about it. Anyway, for him, the attitude of the villagers to him was not important at all.
Although Zhang Miao did not pay attention to it, the attitude of the villagers to him did not change. Instead, it became more and more intense. There were several times when Zhang Miao walked on the street and saw villagers bowing to him. There were even people who addressed him as "Ryunosuke-sama".
If it was only the villagers who did this, it would be fine. Later on, even the members of the Hyuga clan, who had always been arrogant, nodded to him whenever they saw him. This made Zhang Miao feel that something was wrong.
"Why these bunch of cold-hearted guys acted like this? What the hell is going on?"
Just as Zhang Miao was puzzled, Wuy, who had just returned from his mission, gave him an answer.
"Ryunosuke, I heard that your mother is Princess Tsunade. Is that true?"
"My mother is Tsunade? Where did this come from?"
Zhang Miao remembered his identity when he crossed over. He should be the son of Minato and Kushina, so when he heard Guy's words, he was stunned.
"When did I become Tsunade's son? And in the original story, didn't Tsunade have no children?"
Thinking of this, Zhang Miao frowned and looked at Guy. "Guy, where did you hear this from?"
"Everyone in the village said so!"
As soon as Zhang Miao finished his words, Guy grinned at him.
"You are not only from the Uzumaki clan, but you also have the same mark on your head like the one on her head. So you must be her son! Otherwise, why don't you tell me who your mother is?"
"Uh..."
Of course, Zhang Miao would not tell Guy the truth, because once he said it, he was afraid that in three days, Guy, this big mouth, would spread his identity to the whole village. At that time, he would probably cause a lot of trouble.
So at this moment, he remained silent.
Seeing that Zhang Miao did not speak, Guy seemed to understand something. He patted Zhang Miao on the shoulder and sighed.
"Sigh... Don't worry, I won't look down on you just because you are an illegitimate child. You shouldn't care about other people's opinion, because this is your important youth!"
Zhang Miao: "... "
What was that?
