Harry quickly opened his system panel and looked at the number of quest points he had accumulated.

The total points had reached 23,250. He considered his options carefully. He could either upgrade the system to Level Two, which would cost 20,000 points, and then purchase a healing scroll above C Rank to heal his body. However, he hadn't heard of a scroll capable of healing a completely broken arm from watching Naruto anime. He wondered if such a scroll even existed and if it did, whether it could be bought with the remaining 3,250 points he would have after upgrading the system.
The second option was to purchase a Bloodline from the system. He had previously decided that he wanted the Uchiha Bloodline, but given his current state, it wouldn't be of much help for him to escape. With his arm and leg in a mess, he doubted he could use the Uchiha Bloodline to its full potential. The more viable options were the Uzumaki Bloodline or the Senju Bloodline. The Senju Bloodline was renowned for its abundant chakra, while the Uzumaki Bloodline was known for its vast chakra reserves, longevity and unparalleled vitality.
The choice was clear. The Uzumaki Bloodline would be more beneficial in his current situation as it might help heal his broken hand and leg. Moreover, the Uzumaki Bloodline had immense potential, especially with its sealing techniques.
Harry quickly opened the shop panel and navigated to the Bloodline section. His eyes scanned the list, and he selected the Uzumaki Bloodline, the cost displayed at 5,000 points. With a deep breath, he confirmed the purchase, and a notification popped up on his system interface.
**Purchase Complete: Uzumaki Bloodline Integration Beginning.**
Immediately, Harry felt a surge of energy coursing through his body. The integration process had begun, and it was unlike anything he had ever experienced. The pain was excruciating, a white-hot fire burning through his veins. He clenched his jaw tightly, determined not to make a sound. The last thing he needed was to alert Nick Fury and his agents that he was awake and undergoing a transformation.
As the Uzumaki Bloodline started to integrate, Harry's body began to change at a cellular level. His already heightened senses became even more acute, his chakra pathways widening and becoming more efficient. He could feel his reserves of chakra swelling, his body's natural capacity increasing exponentially. This newfound vitality began to work on his injuries.
The broken bones in his arm and leg started to mend at a rapid pace. He could feel the shattered fragments knitting themselves back together, the marrow regenerating and strengthening. The pain was intense, like someone was driving hot needles through his limbs, but he forced himself to endure it in silence. Sweat beaded on his forehead, his muscles tensed with the effort of keeping quiet.
His ribs, which had been fractured, also began to heal. Each breath became easier as the bones fused and his chest cavity repaired itself. The sharp pain he had felt with every movement gradually dulled, replaced by a sensation of warmth and renewal. His internal injuries, though less severe, were also addressed by the regenerative power of the Uzumaki Bloodline. Bruises faded, torn tissues mended, and his overall physical condition improved dramatically.
The integration wasn't just physical. Harry could feel his chakra control improving, becoming more precise and fluid. The Uzumaki clan was known for their powerful chakra and sealing techniques, and he could sense this potential awakening within him.
The pain began to subside after what felt like an eternity but was only a few minutes in reality. Harry lay still, his breathing heavy but steady. He took stock of his condition, moving each limb tentatively to assess the results. His left arm, once shattered beyond repair, responded to his commands smoothly, the bones perfectly aligned and stronger than before. His right leg, too, was fully healed, the muscles and tendons functioning flawlessly.
He couldn't help but marvel at the transformation. The Uzumaki Bloodline had not only healed his injuries but had also enhanced his physical and chakra abilities significantly.
This power would not be wasted. He would use it to ensure his survival and to avoid making the same reckless mistakes that had landed him in this situation.
Harry knew he couldn't linger here for long. Despite the successful integration and healing, he was still in a precarious situation. Nick Fury and his agents were just a room away, and it was only a matter of time before they came to check on him. He needed a plan to escape, and he needed it fast.
His mind raced as he considered his options. The mansion was likely under heavy surveillance, with SHIELD agents stationed at every possible exit. His newly enhanced abilities would help, but he needed a strategy that utilized both stealth and speed. He couldn't afford to engage in a direct confrontation with SHIELD; his goal was to escape without drawing attention.
First, he needed to get out of this room without being noticed. He quietly got out of the bed, testing his weight on his newly healed leg.
As Harry was about to put his foot on the floor, he saw a suitcase near where he placed his foot. This was a familiar suitcase. Harry quietly looked at the door, wondering whether Tony had left it for him. Still, he wondered how Tony was able to repair the Iron Man suit he wore while getting smashed by a missile so quickly. He sighed as his thoughts towards Tony had become quite complicated.
'Why would he leave this for me? Is it a trap, or is he trying to help? Tony's never straightforward with anything,' Harry frowned.
He got up and instead of opening the suitcase, he quickly used his C-Rank Sensory Technique, letting the range of the technique extend as much as possible. 100 meters...200 meters...300 meters...
