Fine: Blue Silver Bind

Source World: Novel—[Douluo Dalu]

Card Category: Skill

Description: Manipulates Blue Silver Grass to bind the target.

...

"What a piece of trash."

Looking at the first Card, Uchiha Xuan disdainfully tossed it into the nearby pile of C-grade Cards.

For binding opponents, he had better options. Although the Golden Light from the Golden Light Mantra was merely a byproduct of Spirit and Vitality Cultivation, its practicality was remarkably versatile.

...

Fine: Evolution Key Stone

Source World: Anime—Pokémon XY

Card Category: Item

Description: Can resonate with the Mega Evolution Stone carried by a Pokémon. When the bond between the two reaches a certain peak, a new power blossoms.

.....

"A Key Stone? Mega Evolution? What’s the use of giving me just a Key Stone? Still, better than nothing. I just wonder when I’ll be able to obtain the Mega Evolution Stones for Charizard and the others."

Holding the Key Stone Card, Uchiha Xuan murmured softly.

"Next... it’s your turn."

Putting away the Key Stone, Uchiha Xuan then turned his gaze to the two purple A-grade Cards floating before him.

.....

Epic: Indestructible Demon Body

Source World: Game—[Honor of Kings]

Card Category: Skill

Description: Summons demonic armor, creating an area that inflicts minor continuous damage while greatly increasing one’s physique, strength, and movement speed. Grants 50% damage reduction. Wield the sword of despair, clad in the armor of the fallen.

....

"A mini-Susanoo, huh? Wielding the sword of despair? Interesting."

Holding the Card, a flicker of excitement flashed in Uchiha Xuan’s eyes. Naturally, he had played Honor of Kings before and was no stranger to the hero Kai.

"A transformation and burst-type skill. If it can be combined with the Golden Light Chakra Mode, it should yield decent results in decisive battles."

Without hesitation, Uchiha Xuan crushed the Card and chose to use it.

In the next moment, a pale blue radiance instantly enveloped Uchiha Xuan’s entire body. Surging blue particles swiftly coalesced into a set of ferocious-looking armor that adhered to his form.

Simultaneously, a massive longsword materialized in Uchiha Xuan’s hand. Surging power welled up within him, and a faint red gleam flickered through the armor.

’The Indestructible Demon Body doesn’t interfere with the use of the Sharingan. Then... how about this!’

Boom!!

A faint rumble echoed!

Golden flames instantly ignited over the Indestructible Demon Body, and Uchiha Xuan’s power surged abruptly.

Raising his hand, he clenched it gently, feeling the torrential force coursing through his body. The Sharingan in Uchiha Xuan’s eyes began to spin rapidly.

Is this... the feeling of power flooding every inch of one’s being?

Next, Uchiha Xuan thoroughly tested the strength of the Indestructible Demon Body within the Mist Space. A full five minutes passed, and there was still no sign of the Indestructible Demon Body dissipating.

"In reality, this skill definitely won’t last just eight seconds like in the game. I just don’t know its exact upper limit. And I don’t feel my mind being affected at all.

Not only that, the mechanism of the demon armor’s enhancement skill is still present. This kind of power is perfect to use alongside Monstrous Strength."

Clad in the demon armor, Uchiha Xuan plunged the greatsword of the armor into the ground of the Mist Space. With a light clench of his fist and a swing, a sonic boom instantly erupted.

"As expected of an A-rank Card. Now then... what about you?"

Still wearing the demon armor, Uchiha Xuan turned his gaze to the remaining A-rank Card and reached out to take it.

.....

Epic: Reversal Technique

Source World: Anime - [Jujutsu Kaisen]

Card Category: Ability

Description: An advanced cursed energy manipulation technique—converts "negative energy (cursed energy, spiritual energy, Yin Release)" into "positive energy (life energy, Yang Release)," used for healing, regeneration, enhancing techniques, and neutralizing curses.

....

"Now, it’s really going to be hard to die."

Looking at the Card’s information, Uchiha Xuan couldn’t help but raise his hand and press it against his chest. Beneath the demon armor, the pendant Tsunade had given him hung there.

The Reversal Technique—an extremely overpowered recovery skill. As long as his head isn’t instantly shattered, he can cling stubbornly to life.

With this skill combined with the Immortal Totem and Izanagi, Uchiha Xuan found it hard to imagine how he could possibly die. Tsunade’s curse? Trivial.

At that moment, the demon armor on Uchiha Xuan’s body began to dissipate into specks of blue light.

"About eight minutes? Not bad at all. An enhancement state with zero cost but a time limit is acceptable."

Watching the blue light fade from his body, Uchiha Xuan smiled and spoke. Drawing so many good Cards had put him in an excellent mood.

"Next up is the main event—the only A-rank Card Pool draw chance I have right now. Even though A-rank Cards are strong, I hope it’s not just a guaranteed A-rank Card."

Crushing the Card that held the Reversal Technique, Uchiha Xuan turned his gaze to the sky.

Snap!

A snap of his fingers, and a brilliant strand of Golden Light instantly descended from the heavens.

Gold?!

A new Legendary Card!

....

Legendary: Conqueror’s Haki

Source World: Manga - [One Piece]

Card Category: Ability

Description: The quality of a king, the materialization of spiritual will and personal ambition, possessing terrifying growth potential.

.....

"This ability is a perfect match for me, an Uchiha."

....

At that moment.

In the Land of Rain.

Hanzo of the Salamander, leader of the Hidden Rain Village, stood at the highest point of the village, quietly watching the oppressive, silent village below as rain poured down on him.

"I... will eventually make the Land of Rain stand tall."

Hanzo of the Salamander—his formidable strength drew widespread attention, and his unique and powerful Summoning Beast became his distinctive symbol, earning him the epithet "of the Salamander."

The name "Salamander" is not Hanzo’s surname but a unique title bestowed upon him, much like Ōnoki of the Two Scales.

Standing in the rain, Hanzo gazed down at the Hidden Rain Village below—a place filled with an aura of deathly stillness, devoid of the vitality a village should possess. Unconsciously, he clenched his fist.

"I only wanted to change the plight of the Land of Rain. Mifune, perhaps you are right, but I have reasons I cannot ignore. For the sake of freeing this village from the oppression of the great nations, what I have done is not wrong!"
