So far, Zhang Miao had discovered three methods for collecting ninja fragments.
The first method required Zhang Miao to interact face-to-face with the individuals he aimed to recruit, thereby collecting their ninja fragments.
The second method, based on the first, allowed Zhang Miao to obtain the recruited ninja's fragments when interacting with their real selves.
The third method necessitated earning absolute goodwill or trust from the other party to disregard distance and collect their ninja fragments, displaying a remarkable sense of telepathy.
Among these three methods, the third was undoubtedly the most demanding condition to meet. So far, only Kakashi and Itachi had met this condition.
As for others, they mostly relied on the first two methods.
Of course, compared to the first method, which required Zhang Miao to be face-to-face with the other party to collect their ninja fragments, the second method was much more convenient.
During Zhang Miao's stay in Konoha for more than three years, those he had sent out as recruits could be said to be very diligent.
For instance, Chiyu with Chiyo, Gaizen with Gaara, Deikira with Deidara, Tsunato with Tsunade, and Gyobito with Obito, among others.
Because of them, even if Zhang Miao hadn't met these ninjas in person, he could continuously obtain their ninja fragments. Over the past three years, the accumulated ninja fragments had reached a considerable amount.
When Zhang Miao decided to use Tsunade and Itachi's ninja fragments for a lottery, the system immediately prompted him.
"His Holiness, the 7-star Kage-level Tsunade's ninja fragments amount to 13,140 pieces, and the 7-star Kage-level Itachi's ninja fragments amount to 14,510 pieces. Would you like to use them all for the lottery?"
"Whoa... There are so many?"
Upon hearing the quantity, Zhang Miao was momentarily surprised but quickly understood. He nodded.
"Yes, after all, it's been nearly three to four years of accumulation. It's normal to have this many. System, use all these ninja fragments for the lottery!"
"Yes, His Holiness!"
After receiving Zhang Miao's affirmative reply, the system immediately followed his command and used all the ninja fragments of Tsunade and Itachi for the lottery.
Similar to previous lottery results, Tsunade's ninja fragments mainly drew Nawaki, Dan, and Hashirama's fragments, while for Obito, the results were similar, drawing mainly Kakashi, Rin, and Madara's ninja fragments.
Now that Zhang Miao had recruited Nawaki, Dan, Kakashi, and Rin, his main targets for this time were actually Hashirama and Madara!
Therefore, after the first lottery, he immediately issued another command to the system.
"System, conduct another lottery using the ninja fragments of Nawaki, Dan, Kakashi, and Rin!"
"Yes, His Holiness!"
Upon hearing Zhang Miao's command, the system immediately complied and started the second lottery. Soon enough, Zhang Miao heard the system prompt he had been hoping for.
"Ding! Congratulations, His Holiness! The 8-star Super Kage-level Senju Hashirama has met the recruitment conditions. Please recruit him as soon as possible!"
"Ding! Congratulations, His Holiness! The 8-star Super Kage-level Uchiha Madara has met the recruitment conditions. Please recruit him as soon as possible!"
Upon hearing these two prompts, Zhang Miao immediately grinned.
"Hehe, just as I expected, with the ninja fragments accumulated over nearly four years, conducting only two lotteries managed to collect all the fragments needed to recruit these two individuals. Now, it's time for recruitment!"
Saying this, Zhang Miao immediately instructed the system again.
"System, extract the ninja fragments of Hashirama and Madara. Today, I'm going big; I'm recruiting these two lifelong rivals together!"
"Yes, His Holiness!"
Upon hearing Zhang Miao's instructions, the system immediately complied. As the system's voice fell, two large piles of ninja fragments appeared at Zhang Miao's feet.
Seeing the two piles of ninja fragments at his feet, Zhang Miao didn't bother to distinguish whose were whose; he directly bit his finger and began to perform hand seals.
"Summoning Jutsu!"
As Zhang Miao uttered these words, a massive rock suddenly emitted a burst of white smoke. When the smoke dissipated, Hashirama, dressed in dark red ninja armor, appeared before him.
At the same time, the system's prompt echoed in his mind.
"Ding! Congratulations to His Holiness for recruiting the 8-star Super Kage-level Senju Hashirama and acquiring this ninja's chakra reserves. As this ninja specializes in recovery, His Holiness has gained the skill—Rapid Healing. It can swiftly heal even life-threatening injuries in the blink of an eye!"
Tremendous healing ability was undoubtedly the most potent aspect of the First Hokage, Hashirama. The skill Zhang Miao obtained would make most people ecstatic, but he reacted differently. After hearing the system's prompt, he couldn't help but sigh with helplessness.
"Tsk... With my physical strength, it's not easy for others to break through my defenses. This Rapid Healing effect is minimal for me. Oh well, consider it an extra layer of insurance. Okay, system, open up Hashirama's list of specialties for me!"
"Yes, now opening the list for His Holiness!" After Zhang Miao's words, the system's voice rang out again.
And as the system's voice sounded, Hashirama's specialties list immediately appeared in front of Zhang Miao.
Option 1:
Bloodline Limit · Wood Release: The power from the Divine Tree, Hashirama's unique bloodline limit. Having it is akin to having the capital to dominate the ninja world.
Note: Give me a woman, I can't create a nation. But give me a seed, I can create a forest. The most potent jutsu in the ninja world, you deserve to have it!
Option 2:
Sage's Body: Inherited from the Sage of Six Paths, a powerful physique that can accommodate a massive amount of chakra, with an astonishingly fast chakra recovery rate.
Note: Without it, Tailed Beasts might catch you. With it, you can catch Tailed Beasts!
Option 3:
Gambling Enthusiast: Proficient in all kinds of gambling tools, but winning requires a bit of luck.
Note: People need hobbies, after all.
After reading Hashirama's three ninja skills, Zhang Miao's mouth involuntarily twitched a few times.
"Darn it, I now finally understand why Tsunade is so fond of gambling. So, this is a family inheritance!"
Thinking this, Zhang Miao couldn't help but shake his head before focusing again on the first two options for Hashirama, his brow furrowing.
"I already have Wood Release and the Sage's Body. Which one should I choose this time?"
