Befriending a ninja and inheriting

  2. Collect the items it likes. You find them after field wins and Combos in the scene where it lives.
  3. Talk to the ninja and press Hand in to raise its friendship.
  4. At full friendship, talk to it again and choose Inherit.

Slots and active Bloodlines

You start with 5 Bloodline slots and can have up to 10. Slots 6 to 10 cost 50, 80, 120, 180 and 250 gold.

Up to 3 Bloodlines can be active. The first one is your Main Bloodline. Only active Bloodlines work. That means their Strength, Agility and Stamina, their Offering, their Bloodsouls and their passive. The passive gives two stats and a bonus to one kind of jutsu. Press Activate to make a Bloodline active, and Remove to take it out.

To free a slot, use Forget. First take every Bloodsoul off the Bloodline and remove it from the active slots. The ninja's friendship goes back to zero, but you can befriend it and inherit again.

The Bloodline secret technique

Some orange costumes have a secret technique that Bloodlines wake up. These costumes are Mashiro Kuna, Hinata Hyuga, Itachi Uchiha, 4th Hokage, Yakushi Kabuto, Hime Hinata, Shunsui Kyoraku, Konan, Sage Naruto and Hebi Sasuke.

You need 3 active Bloodlines, each with 5 Bloodsouls of level V or higher. The costume then counts as 3 levels higher in fights. For more about costumes, read Costumes and Wings.
