Clang, clang, clang!
The midnight bells rang out. Kael immediately opened the system interface.
[Would you like to perform a 10-draw?]
"Confirm!"
Kael clicked confirm. Since he hadn't pulled in seven years, his accumulated luck was bound to explode.
"Give me a top-tier gold card!"
The familiar gacha animation played out. The universe was created, the galaxy reversed, and ten stars constantly gathered in the sky.
Next, the stars began to fall toward the earth, being coated in various colors during their descent.
Soon, the ten stars landed.
"No gold?!"
Kael couldn't help but feel speechless.
However, he quickly realized that the total probability of pulling a gold in a 10-draw was only about ten percent. Not pulling one was actually normal.
Perhaps because he had been pulling so many golds lately, not seeing one suddenly made him feel a bit out of sorts.
"Even though there's no gold, at least there's one purple."
The probability of pulling a purple in a 10-draw was nearly fifty percent. Overall, the drop rate was quite high.
He currently owned quite a few gold cards, so he didn't really have high expectations for purple cards. However, purple cards were decent as experience cards. Having pulled a purple, he was mostly curious about who the character was.
Soon, the purple character card flipped over.
"It's him!"
The familiar black robe with red clouds, deep blond hair, the left eye covered by hair, wearing a miniature telescope, hair hanging down his face with an upright ponytail on his head, and a ring with the character for "Azure" on his right index finger.
"Deidara!"
Kael recognized the identity immediately. Deidara's first appearance involved capturing Gaara, the Kazekage of the Hidden Sand Village.
His catchphrase: "Art is an explosion!"
Even though he was a villain, Kael still quite liked the character.
He was self-centered, crazy, bold, and even a bit cruel—a villain with a distinct personality.
[Recycle the selected character?]
"Recycle!"
[Ding! Recycling successful! Your magic power has increased!]
After checking it, Kael chose to recycle the entire batch of character cards, including Deidara.
Deidara's overall strength was quite good. If tactics were used correctly, he could achieve a surprise attack effect. However, his base stats were too low, and his strongest move was a self-detonation. Of course, the power of his detonation might rival mid-to-high-tier gold cards.
But he had absolutely no interest in suicide.
With six gold cards currently in his possession, even mid-to-low-tier gold cards might become experience fodder, let alone a mere purple card.
After calming his mind slightly, Kael started the second 10-draw.
[Would you like to perform a 10-draw?]
"Confirm!"
Although the first 10-draw didn't produce a gold, one purple was okay. At least it wasn't a total waste.
Kael stared intently at the gacha screen, looking like a gambler.
"Gold! Gold! Gold!"
A moment later, the animation ended. This time he didn't pull a gold again; it was another purple card. This left Kael feeling disappointed. Twenty pulls in and he still hadn't gotten the gold card he wanted.
"System, since when were gold cards so hard to pull? Did you secretly change the winning probability?"
[It seems you're getting ahead of yourself, Host. The probability for gold cards has always been low. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a 100-draw pity system. Besides, you've pulled two purples in a row, so your luck is already quite good. Don't be too greedy.]
Statistically speaking, the combined probability of purple and gold cards was a bit over 50%. Kael had already hit that probability twice, yet he wasn't satisfied.
"Fine, just consider me unlucky."
Kael waved his hand, leaving the system quite annoyed. Unlucky? You've already won and you still call yourself unlucky? This kid was really getting arrogant.
At this moment, the character card flipped over.
It was the familiar black robe with red clouds again, but the appearance was a handsome boy with red hair.
"Is this... Sasori?"
Kael was slightly stunned at first, but quickly recognized his identity.
Sasori of the Red Sand.
In Naruto Shippuden, he teamed up with Deidara to capture the One-Tail, Shukaku. Later, because he held back and intentionally revealed a weakness, he was defeated by Sakura and Lady Chiyo.
Overall, he was a character with a somewhat tragic backstory.
[Recycle the selected character?]
"Recycle!"
[Ding! Recycling successful! Your magic power has increased!]
Just like Deidara, although Sasori's strength was decent, his overall power was too weak. There was no value in keeping him.
Kael started the third 10-draw.
[Would you like to perform a 10-draw?]
"Confirm!"
The animation appeared again. Pulling three times in a row reminded him of the times he spent money in games. Back then, to pull a favorite character, he had even taken out several years of saved New Year's money.
One purple and one gold—two dazzling stars fell from the universe.
"I got gold!!"
Kael was instantly excited.
He finally pulled a gold, and a purple came along with it. Without a doubt, he made a big profit on this 10-draw.
First, the purple character card flipped over.
It was the familiar black robe with red clouds again.
"Ugh... did I stumble into the Akatsuki hideout? Why are they all Akatsuki members?"
Kael couldn't help but complain.
He also recognized the identity of the person on the character card.
Kakuzu.
The biggest victim of Naruto Uzumaki's ultimate move, Wind Style: Rasenshuriken.
In his life, his greatest honor was failing to assassinate the First Hokage and escaping alive. There was no need to hesitate with this kind of character card—it was experience fodder.
Kael flipped the last card. This was the one that needed his focus.
The moment he saw the character's appearance, Kael couldn't help but be shocked.
"It's him!!"
This was a man with pale skin and red hair. His build was somewhat thin, and he wore a red robe. The most striking feature was his eyes. Within the purple eyeballs were a series of concentric circles. These were the top-tier eyes in the Naruto world—the Rinnegan.
"Nagato!!"
That's right! This person was the leader of the Akatsuki, Nagato.
Even after all this time, Kael still remembered how stunning Nagato's first appearance was. Various powerful ninjutsu appeared one after another, and he easily suppressed and killed Jiraiya.
Later, he invaded the Hidden Leaf Village alone, leaving the village with no power to resist. A single Shinra Tensei completely destroyed the village.
If it weren't for the Nine-Tails, Nagato could have destroyed the Hidden Leaf Village by himself.
That classic line about "bringing pain" became his signature.
Furthermore, Nagato was known as the "Super Kage-level gatekeeper."
During the Fourth Shinobi World War, Kabuto Yakushi reanimated Nagato. If it weren't for Kabuto's poor control, combined with the fact that the opponents were the two perfect Jinchuriki of the Eight and Nine-Tails plus Itachi Uchiha, few people could have suppressed Nagato.
