After reading through the system updates, the first thing Yuto noticed was the adjustment to the gacha system.
Originally, he felt the 10,000 ryo per pull was already a rip-off, but now the system thought it wasn't enough, and the cost per pull had been increased to 50,000 ryo.
And the system added a 100-pull option.
'5 million ryo at once?'
Yuto was furious. His entire fortune... oh, he had already spent most of it on gacha earlier, and now he couldn't even afford a 100-pull.
However, after seeing the other adjustments, Yuto felt that the system was still somewhat fair.
At first, he thought the Domain ability wasn't as impressive as a full Domain Expansion, but then he saw the correction note.
It completely blew his mind!
A 500-meter radius! A 15-minute duration! And only a 2.5-hour cooldown! If he played it safe, this was even more useful than Kamui! After all, this was true invincibility.
As for the shop expansion, Yuto also felt it was indeed necessary.
The shop had been packed these past few days, and Yuto had been considering renovating the second floor.
But it was just a thought, as he hadn't known there was a size limit to the shop. Thankfully, he hadn't acted on it.
Aside from the gacha cost becoming much more expensive, he felt the other adjustments seemed pretty good.
'But what was this orange item? Only one was added. Could it be that there's only one in the entire pool?'
Yuto was curious, but he hadn't even used the purple-tier Universal Repair Kit he had pulled earlier.
After organizing his thoughts, Yuto decided not to check the items he had pulled just yet. Instead, he thought...
'Alright, let's do a few 10-pulls first!'
---
[Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique Proficiency Book]
[Healing Pill] (Combo triggered, obtained additional copies of the same item x3)
Then, Yuto watched as three white-quality items followed.
'So that's how it works...'
'And the Great Fireball Technique Proficiency Book? That's a green item!'
'Were the 100 new green items all different Jutsu?'
The subsequent pulls seemed to confirm Yuto's guess.
Among the green items, there were proficiency books for Taijutsu, Genjutsu, and Ninjutsu, as well as many skill-specific proficiency books.
In the following 10-pulls, Yuto saw mastery books for techniques like Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall and Water Release: Water Prison Technique.
'But these were all green items...'
'What about the increased probability for blue items? Why hadn't I seen any yet?'
Then, in the final 10-pulls, Yuto finally saw a blue item...
[Jutsu Modification Book] (Combo triggered, obtained additional copies of the same item x5)
[Jutsu Modification Book]
[Izanagi (Simplified Version)]
[Izanagi (Simplified Version)]
[Dance of the Shikigami]
[Izanagi (Simplified Version)]
…
After pulling six blue items in a row, the rest were white and green items.
Combo items didn't consume pulling attempts and were considered extra rewards.
But Yuto was quite surprised to see three [Izanagi (Simplified Version)] items.
He thought to himself, 'Isn't this a Sharingan-exclusive Dojutsu? What's with the 'Simplified Version'?'
So out of curiosity, Yuto clicked on the detailed description.
[Izanagi Simplified Version:
Allows the user to negate unfavorable events that occur within a certain period, only allowing favorable outcomes to become reality (uncorrected effect)
Correction: Automatically consumes the item when the user suffers fatal damage, negating the damage.
Additional Effects: None.
Description: A simplified version of Izanagi, providing only one instance of death negation. It appears as a keychain with a Sharingan pattern, making it easy to carry.]
After reading this, Yuto's eyes widened.
'This item is really amazing!'
'If I could collect a few dozen of these, wouldn't I essentially have... a Danzo simulator?'
'No, this thing doesn't even require Hashirama's cells or anything. It's even better than Danzo's arm!'
Yuto felt a surge of joy. He remembered complaining during the Chunin Exams about not daring to leave the shop, and now he had this life-saving treasure!
At this point, Yuto began checking the other items one by one.
In his memory, he had drawn two more purple items...
As for blue items, Yuto had drawn a bunch, but most of these were obtained before the system update.
Things like temporary Mangekyō... various secret techniques and Ninjutsu... at a glance, there were about a dozen blue items.
However, what surprised Yuto was that there was also a very useful life-saving secret technique.
[Hydrification Technique]
'I remember pulling a Dance of the Shikigami earlier. Wow, these two techniques both provide physical immunity, and while their effects overlap a bit, combined with the Mayfly Technique and Domain, they form the ultimate survival combo! With this, I don't have to worry about me dying outside anymore.'
Finally, Yuto turned his attention to the purple items.
[True·Limit Break]
[Chakra Capacitor·Modified]
---
One was labeled 'True' and the other 'Modified.' Yuto couldn't make sense of what this meant.
'What was a 'Limit Break'?'
'Never mind, let's just check the effects.'
Yuto clicked on the detailed information.
[True·Limit Break:
Upon use, allows the user to break through a specific limitation of their choice. Can be edited with text. Can be undone after use, but the item will disappear upon undoing. Usage count: 0/1.
Description: ◎◎, ◎◎◎◎!]
Seeing this, Yuto was stunned.
'Wow, can this really break through anything?'
'Also, what the hell is this description?'
Although it was the height of summer in Konoha, seeing this item and its description made Yuto feel as if he had been plunged into an icy abyss.
Yuto quickly shifted his gaze to the other purple item, hoping this one would be more normal.
[Chakra Capacitor·Modified:
Worn on the wrist, it looks like a normal watch. When the dial is pointed at a target Jutsu, the Chakra Capacitor will automatically copy the Jutsu and generate a small scroll. The small scroll can then be loaded back into the Chakra Capacitor, allowing the user to replicate and release the Jutsu without consuming their own Chakra.
Description: Times have changed! Who still uses traditional ninja tools?]
Yuto's eyes widened as he read the description of this purple item.
'Oh my goodness, sci... scientific ninja tools?'
Yuto couldn't help but think of a certain pineapple-headed boy who would dominate the Chunin Exams in Konoha about twenty years later...
