The first three attributes were pretty straightforward.
But vitality is a new attribute that has appeared for the first time.
The other two attributes have appeared before.
One increases the power of pupil techniques, and the other increases the pupil power itself.
It's easy to understand.
As for vitality?
It is actually very simple. For example, Sage Body increases vitality.
And now, this vitality attribute can further enhance his already huge vitality to an even greater level.
His current vitality is already close to the limit of the primary Sage Body.
If he grows normally, it will only take about a year or so for the primary Sage Body to advance to intermediate Sage Body.
At that moment, his vitality will be at least three times higher than it is now.
And now, if this talent entry is equipped, his vitality will advance to a level that he would reach in a year or more.
Moreover, after his Sage Body advances, this fivefold bonus will still apply to the new base.
Therefore, as long as his Sage Body reaches the intermediate level, his vitality will be equivalent to that of an advanced Sage Body.
That is the same level as Senju Hashirama.
Thus, the significance of this vitality attribute was quite clear.
But what is this "Rinnegan's Guide" ability?
It seems to be related to Rinnegan, and it is described as a guide.
Does it direct the user toward obtaining a Rinnegan that is somewhere in the world?
But Ryosuke doesn't need such guidance.
After all, the locations of the known Rinnegan is already clear.
Isn't it with Nagato?
If that were the case, then this ability would be quite useless.
"Let's check it. Surely it's not that bad, right?"
With that thought, he checked the details about the [Rinnegan's Guide].
[Rinnegan's Guide: When the user possesses the potential for awakening the Rinnegan, this ability allows their bloodline to evolve continuously towards the level of Rinnegan without limitations. There will be no bottlenecks or obstacles before the transformation into Rinnegan!]
So good!
After eading the description, Ryosuke became surprised.
His Sharingan can evolve without restrictions until it becomes a Rinnegan?
And there will be no bottlenecks nor roadblocks in the process.
With the former, if the Sharingan is still at the three-tomoe stage, even without external stimulation, it will naturally evolve into a Mangekyō as long as enough pupil power is accumulated.
There will be no need for tragic events like losing parents, close friends, or lovers.
The latter refers to the difficulty of evolving a Mangekyō into an Eternal Mangekyō.
It normally requires transplanting a Mangekyō from a blood relative.
That's the obstacle!
And now that obstacle can simply be ignored.
As long as the pupil power reaches the required level, Mangekyō Sharingan can evolve into Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan!
No need for any blood relatives!
Regarding the transformation from Eternal Mangekyō to Rinnegan, strict conditions must be fulfilled.
It seems that t evolve an Eternal Mangekyō into Rinnegan, a combination of Indra and Asura's Chakra is required, rather than simply merging the powers of the Uchiha and Senju clans.
Otherwise, Rinnegan's status as a legendary dojutsu would be tarnished.
If just any Uchiha and Senju descendant could awaken it through their combined power, it would be too common.
Therefore, the key factor should be Asura and Indra's Chakra.
However!
Deep down, Ryosuke hoped that this assumption was wrong.
Because if it's wrong, then the evolution to Rinnegan could happen right away.
But realistically, the probability was low.
But now none of that matters anymore.
He no longer needs Asura, Indra, or any other special conditions.
With this talent entry, his eyes can evolve into Rinnegan without any hindrance.
This is amazing.
Although it doesn't grant a Rinnegan directly, this is essentially just as good as receiving one.
And!
If Rinnegan was granted directly, his eyes wouldn't be able to revert to Eternal Mangekyō, since they would lack the natural evolutionary progression.
However, if his eyes evolve to Rinnegan, they will naturally retain flexibility.
It can switch back to Eternal Mangekyō or even regular three-tomoe Sharingan at will.
Even if he obtains the Rinnegan, he won't lose access to standard Sharingan abilities.
A smile appeared on Ryosuke's face.
"Let's equip it and test it out!"
Without hesitation, he equipped the talent entry.
Almost immediately, an astonishing transformation took place in his eyes.
The Mangekyō pattern automatically appeared in his eyes, spinning wildly.
His pupil power skyrocketed in a short period, showing no signs of stopping.
He grabbed a mirror, and observed his eye's transformation.
After about ten seconds—
The spinning pattern finally stopped.
At the same time, his pupil power stabilized at a level, ceasing its rapid growth.
At this time!
The pair of Mangekyō in the mirror had undergone great changes.
The pattern that originally resembled five sickles had become more complex.
A red line appeared in the middle of each sickle, connecting them together.
Additionally, a black circular line emerged in the center of the five-sickle pattern.
The entire pattern was now divided into two layers, inner and outer.
Looking into the mirror, Ryosuke could sense their terrifying power.
In terms of pupil power, it had increased by more than tenfold.
With the addition of three talent entries that enhanced pupil power, his total pupil power had reached an incredibly terrifying level.
Even!
When compared to Rinnegan's pupil power, it was just slightly lacking.
And!
It was still improving even though the rate of increase slowed significantly from the initial surge.
This was obviously due to the effect of the attribute Eye Awakeninh Efficiency +1000%.
Originally, the natural growth rate of pupil power wouldn't have been this fast.
But now?
These newly evolved Eternal Mangekyō will likely evolve again in just two or three months.
Into their final form!
Rinnegan!
"No bottlenecks, and no need for any external catalysts. This ability is simply too broken!"
Previously, Ryosuke had concerns about how to trigger the next evolution.
But now, it was happening automatically.
Soon, the next transformation into Rinnegan would occur.
This level of efficiency was absurd!
"This Rinnegan Guide ability is incredible. I don't even have to do any work. These eyes just evolve on their own."
"It's just a pity that in the end, it can only evolve into a regular Rinnegan. If it could continue evolving into the even stronger Rinnesharingan, that would be perfect!"
A slightly greedy thought arose in Ryosuke's heart.
Greed is just a human nature.
Once you get something, you want more.
If a person earns a million, they start aiming for ten million.
If they earn ten million, they aim for a hundred million.
This was no different.
There was nothing wrong with wanting more power.
The next day
Ryosuke had barely slept but he still got up early.
He had spent the entire night adjusting to his new eyes.
Even with the sudden surge in pupil power, everything was now under his control.
On the way, he encountered Team 7, which was now down to only two members.
"Ryosuke, are you heading to train?"
Seeing the direction he was walking, Sasuke Ryosuke's destination.
'Ryosuke is already so strong but he still continues to train so diligently.'
This was something Sasuke both admired and envied.
He had heard what Kakashi had said.
When that bastard Itachi had come to the village the other day, Ryosuke had fought him and severed one of his arms.
Sasuke had even gone to see the severed arm himself.
When he saw it, he couldn't help but feel frustrated.
At first, upon hearing the news, he had an impulse to chase after Itachi immediately.
But Kakashi later informed him that even Konoha's Anbu couldn't track Itachi's whereabouts.
So in the end, Sasuke unwillingly gave up on the idea.
After all, he doesn't even know where Itachi went, how can he chase him?
If he runs in the wrong direction, that would just be embarrassing.
"Yeah, I'm off to train. Are you heading out for a mission?"
Ryosuke nodded casually and asked.
"Just another boring D-rank mission."
Sasuke frowned, clearly frustrated.
He had no interest in wasting time on meaningless errands, but Kakashi still made them complete two or three such missions every day.
"Alright, good luck. I'm off."
Ryosuke had no intention of comforting Sasuke.
With a quick farewell, he continued on his way towards the training ground.
Sakura indignantly stared at his back.
"What? He didn't even say hi to me!" Sakura pouted in frustration.
Sasuke glanced at her, then turned away without a word.
Ever since Naruto had left the village with Jiraiya, Sakura had constantly been complaining.
She complained about the missions being annoying, about the weather being bad and so on.
Sasuke thought that Sakura was turning into an old woman.
But he had no energy to argue with her.
In his eyes, Sakura had always been the weak link of Team 7.
At this point, the only teammate he truly acknowledged was Naruto.
As for Sakura?
She was just extra baggage.
"Sasuke is really impatient. Maybe tomorrow or the day after, I'll meet him again as a fellow Uchiha."
As Ryosuke walked towards Training Ground No. 1, he thought.
At this moment!
A Konoha Anbu suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Ryosuke-sama, Jiraiya-sama has returned. He has requested your presence at the Hokage's office immediately."
The masked Anbu's tone was respectful.
"Black Fang, you're out of the hospital?"
Looking at the Anbu, Ryosuke recognized that it was an old comrade.
He was Black Fang, a former teammate from Anbu.
Hearing this, Black Fang gave a wry smile beneath his mask.
"I just got discharged."
In truth, Black Fang had mixed feelings about meeting Ryosuke again.
The difference in status between them had grown too vast.
Black Fang was still just an ordinary Anbu.
Meanwhile, Ryosuke had become one of the most influential figures in the village.
Now, even when speaking to him, Black Fang had to respectfully address him.
Whether it was jealousy or envy, Black Fang himself wasn't sure.
All he knew was that he preferred not to meet Ryosuke alone.
But duty was duty.
He was stationed at the Hokage Building, and as soon as Jiraiya returned, he was ordered to deliver this message.
Even if he didn't want to, he had no choice.
