- Fate Alteration Apprentice (Green)]
[Fate Alteration Apprentice (Green):
The fate of the living is turbulent, while the fate of the deceased shines like a meteor. Life is unpredictable, and destiny is ever-changing. By actively interfering with and altering others' destinies, one can absorb a tiny amount of the stray, ownerless fate energy that dissipates when a person's fate undergoes a significant change, thereby enhancing one's own luck.]
---
"This effect..." Kei frowned slightly, pondering for a moment before figuring out how this thing worked.
According to the trait's description: When a person's fate undergoes a major change, a brand-new fate energy will be generated within them, while the original fate energy will dissipate and temporarily exist as ownerless energy. This kind of energy is elusive and intangible. But [Fate Alteration Apprentice] allows one to absorb this ownerless fate energy and convert it into luck.
Luck, huh! A standard trait of a "Child of Destiny," isn't it? Not bad?
A grin spread across Kei's face. Without hesitation, he chose to activate the trait.
He had just changed Yugito's fate. Although he was thousands of miles away from her current location, who was to say that fate energy couldn't travel such a distance?
Even if the probability was low, it wasn't impossible!
Besides, if there were limitations on the absorption range, he could always take that into account when altering others' fates in the future, right?
Buzz—
The moment [Fate Alteration Apprentice] was activated, he felt an indescribable sense of clarity and comfort spreading throughout his body. The world was still the same, yet in his eyes, it had become much more vivid.
Meanwhile, an intangible energy—one he couldn't quite describe—was drawn by some strange energy, traveling from the direction of Kiri and swiftly merging into his body.
It actually worked?
"The absorption range of this trait… Damn, that's impressive!"
While praising the trait, he also secretly admired his own wisdom.
Good thing he activated [Fate Alteration Apprentice] with a "might as well try it" mindset. Otherwise, wouldn't this have been a waste? Although he couldn't precisely measure how much his luck had improved or what level it had reached, as long as he had this trait, he could keep altering others' fates.
With enough changes, wouldn't he eventually become the world's most favored child?
And besides… Kei glanced at the random green trait upgrade chance on his system interface, feeling even more eager.
Should he take a gamble? No way! That was a reckless move! A one-in-three chance? That was practically a guaranteed loss!

Altogether, he only had three green traits.
And with nine chances to gift traits, he could easily give [Master of Banter] away.
As for [Medicated Milk]… There were plenty of ways to deal with it.
For example, he could use duplicate a medical-related trait and merge it with [Medicated Milk]. But that would be quite a significant loss.
Fate-related traits were indeed crucial, but trait duplication chances were just as precious. Even back in Kumo, he hadn't been willing to use it to duplicate the Third Raikage's red-tier trait.
There was no way he was wasting it on this!
The second option was downgrading, reducing the green trait to a white-tier one.
The downside? His medical ninjutsu might genuinely become useless in the future! Not to mention, this would push him further away from his goal of developing the One's Own Life Reincarnation.
The third option was resetting—seeing if he could change the trait's tier altogether.
But this was a gamble. And if the reset still resulted in a green-tier trait…
"Joke about luck, understand luck, become luck—let's bet on it!"
After contemplating for a long time, Kei ultimately decided to use the Trait Reset first. After all, he now had fate-related traits boosting him. Maybe this was the moment his luck would explode?

"Reset [Medicated Milk] already!"

"I knew it! Today is not an unlucky day!"
As a flood of medical knowledge and training memories surged into his mind, Kei's grin stretched so wide it nearly reached his ears.
Though a blue-tier trait wasn't quite enough to independently develop a technique like One's Own Life Reincarnation, it was still a huge step forward!
Now, he just needed to seize more opportunities to study similar jutsu. And, of course, pay a visit to Tsunade to "borrow" some of her prized medical ninjutsu books.
One word—stable!
"Now, let's see… who should I give [Master of Banter] to?"
---
As he darted through the dense forests of the Land of Fire, Kei covered an immense distance over the course of half a day.
Using [Spatial Insight], he vaguely sensed a spatial mark 100 kilometers from Konoha. He carved his Flying Thunder God mark onto the trunk of a tree beside him.
Then, forming a single-hand seal, he activated the Flying Thunder God Technique, teleporting himself and Oyashiro straight to the marked location.
At such an extreme range, the chakra consumption of space-time transfer increased exponentially.
But for Kei, who possessed [Sage Body], this level of consumption was nothing. Looking at "Sword of Shinobi's Love" discreetly engraved on a hidden rock, he couldn't help but admire Minato's foresight.
Right then, he made up his mind: One day, he would spread his Flying Thunder God marks to every corner of the ninja world!
Although [Spatial Insight] didn't allow him to sense Kumo's marks while standing in Konoha, if he just placed enough markers, he could simply teleport multiple times to reach Kumo from Konoha.
After sensing a closer Flying Thunder God mark near Konoha, he teleported again, bringing Oyashiro with him, and arrived in the dense forest less than a kilometer from Konoha's gates.
Staring at the towering gates from a distance, he decided that revealing his Flying Thunder God Technique too soon was not ideal.
So, dragging Oyashiro along, he obediently walked towards Konoha's main road like an ordinary traveler.
