Thinking about the future fusion of multiple Uchiha Itachi, Charles knew that Itachi's strength will become extremely terrifying.
Without the interference of the bloodstain disease, his eyes won't suffer a reduced field of vision due to using the Mangekyō Sharingan. His physical fitness and chakra level would continue to improve, making Uchiha Itachi an extremely formidable force.
Even the complete form of Susanoo, not shown in the original work, can be developed by him.
With Charles's successful recruitment, a massive amount of 15 chakra points appears in his body the next moment, strengthening his overall chakra.
To experience his Mangekyō Sharingan, Charles exited the system space and went to the bathroom mirror as He activated his Sharingan.
The three tomoe Sharingan appeared in Charles's eye sockets, and the next second, the three tomoe rotated and connected to form a design resembling a windmill – the Mangekyō Sharingan.
With the activation of the Mangekyō Sharingan, Charles looked at his eyes in the mirror and murmured, "So, this is the Mangekyō Sharingan!"
Feeling the unique power of the Mangekyō Sharingan in his eyes, Charles carefully assessed it and felt relieved.
Using the Mangekyō Sharingan won't cause a decline in his vision, and he can freely use the Mangekyō abilities of Itachi without any drawbacks.
After checking his Mangekyō Sharingan in the mirror, Charles's consciousness entered the system space again. He opened the ninja tab, looking at the seven ninjas in total, contemplating how to arrange them.
Akatsuki Uchiha Itachi can merge with the Anbu Uchiha Itachi without occupying a battle slot, while the other six ninjas require six battle slots.
Currently, the system has rewarded three, so three more needs to be unlocked.
Opening the battle slot section, Charles clicked on the blank position next to the existing ones.
Ding! Would you like to spend 22,000 gold coins to unlock a battle slot?
Without hesitation, Charles directly chooses "yes." He clicked twice more, spending 24,000 and 26,000 gold coins, respectively.
Three battle slots cost Charles a total of 72,000 gold coins, reducing his gold coin count to below 100,000.
Looking at the six empty battle slots, Charles focused on the five Sound Ninja. He then placed all five ninja cards into the battle slots.
This time, Charles didn’t release the Sound Ninjas randomly; instead, he released them in front of him, having another plan in mind.
As the Sound Ninja Quintet woke up in front of him, they knelt down and said, "Lord Charles!"
Charles took out five tablets with various information prepared by Ginny for educating ninjas regarding this world.
"Study the knowledge inside these tablets to understand this world."
"Yes, Lord Charles."
Just after giving orders to the five people, before Charles could make other arrangements, suddenly the landline phone in the room rang.
Picking up the phone, it was Ginny's voice: "Boss, Coulson is here to visit and would like to see you."
Upon hearing that Coulson was the visitor, Charles understood what was going on.
"Take him to the guest area; I'll be there shortly."
After arranging the Sound Ninjas, Charles placed Tenten's card into one of the battle slots. The next second, Tenten, now a Chunin, appeared in front of Charles.
Just as before, Charles handed Tenten a learning tablet and had Red Queen bring Neji here. After explaining the situation to Neji, he took Tenten away.
Handling these matters, Charles went to the guest area and approached Coulson, who was sitting on the sofa waiting.
"Long time no see, Coulson!"
Hearing Charles's voice, Coulson stood up and greeted, "Long time no see, Mr. Charles!"
After a handshake, Charles sat on the sofa.
"You came so early in the morning, is there something important?"
Coulson didn't waste time with pleasantries and directly took out a file from his briefcase. Inside were photos of Hidan and some of his information, which he placed in front of Charles.
Seeing what Coulson brought, Charles didn't hesitate to pick it up and take a look. As he expected, it was about Hidan.
"Hidan, a rogue ninja from the Hidden Steam Village, attacked S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, causing nearly two hundred casualties. We hope you can take action to capture him and hand him over to us."
"As for the mission's commission, we can negotiate."
After Charles put down the file, he looked at Coulson and said, "You can't afford the price."
Coulson didn't expect Charles to outright say that he couldn't afford the price. He immediately countered, "Mr. Charles, he's just a rogue ninja from a small village."
"300 or even 500 energy blocks, plus 100 million dollars. How about this price? S.H.I.E.L.D. is sincere with this offer."
Upon hearing Coulson's words, Charles chuckled and said, "Just because he's from a small ninja village doesn't mean he's weak."
"I'll give you additional information; this Hidan is an S-rank rogue ninja."
"S-rank?" Coulson questioned.
"Yes, S-rank rogue ninja. Each S-rank rogue ninja has the strength of a Kage-level ninja."
Hearing the term Kage-level ninja, Coulson's heart sank. Even someone as terrifying as Rock Lee was only a Genin. This was troublesome.
"This is not the kind of mission that can be commissioned with 100 million dollars and a few energy blocks. It would take something like the Cosmic Cube."
Hearing Charles mention the Cosmic Cube, Coulson knew that this mission was probably hopeless. S.H.I.E.L.D. would not exchange the Cosmic Cube for a rogue ninja like Hidan.
Charles wasn't afraid of S.H.I.E.L.D. agreeing. If they were willing to trade the Cosmic Cube for Hidan, he would genuinely make the exchange.
Afterward, he would directly remove Hidan from the battle slots, collect him, and release him randomly again.
Unfortunately, it seemed like S.H.I.E.L.D. was not willing to make such an exchange.
