"Unstoppable! Absolutely unstoppable! Anyone who crosses me is done for!"
Yamanaka Shinno grinned as he looked at his trait interface.
At this stage, traveling to different worlds didn't hold that much allure for him anymore.
Sure, he had his fair share of complaints—why did he have to end up in this chaotic, cruel world of ninjas instead of some chill slice-of-life one?
But every coin has two sides. If it weren't for this world, he'd never have gained such overwhelming power.
And after spending twenty years here...
He'd made friends, found family, had someone he loved, and even trained disciples. He had a home where the lights would always stay on for him, no matter how late he returned.
So even if he wanted to go explore other worlds someday...
He would first take care of everything here—put all affairs in order before setting off.
That way, when he came back...
He wouldn't be returning to ruins or a battlefield.
That warm light, the one that guided a traveler home, would still be there waiting for him.
And like a ship battered by waves and weather, he too could return to his own safe harbor.
"System, I'm using all my Trait Extraction chances," he said boldly.
Honestly, he didn't even have high expectations for what he'd get anymore.
After all, he still hadn't fully mastered the spatial powers granted by [Multiversal Traveler].
If he could figure out how to truly use that...
What jutsu could possibly stand against a formless, invisible, and unending spatial slash?
Congratulations! You have obtained the following traits:
Void-Splitting Sit (Blue): Years of intense training have given you pelvic bones harder than steel. Just by sitting, you can tear through the air and shatter boulders. Greatly enhances leg, hip, glute strength, and gluteal defense.
Silk Enthusiast (Gray): Everyone has their own little quirks. Yours? You're really into the feeling and sound of tearing silk. You have drastically reduced resistance to black, white, gray, flesh-tone, rainbow, mesh... basically all types. Hormone and dopamine production significantly increased.
Average Looks Filter (White): All beauty is but a surface illusion. To you, everyone now appears equally average in looks. Slight boost to focus, willpower, and moral compass. Slight drop in emotional response and desire.
Master of Magical Wardrobe Change (Purple): A close-combat mage's essential spell. Store weapons, armor, and gear in a personal magical arsenal and swap them on the fly. Greatly improves swap speed, storage capacity, weapon mastery, close-combat skill, and magic control.
"...You've outdone yourself, System," Shinno muttered.
He stared at the four wildly different traits and nearly went speechless.
Void-Splitting Sit? When he first heard it, he thought it was that legendary Pokémon from the games!
He was briefly excited—if it had anything to do with a legendary, it shouldn't just be a blue trait, right?
Then he realized—that kind of "sit"?!
And seriously—what kind of sane person attacks enemies by... sitting?
Okay, sure, he wasn't exactly big on honor. In close combat, he'd gouge eyes or go for the groin without hesitation. But that was normal for a ninja!
This... this sounded like something a courtesan warrior might develop!
And don't even get him started on Silk Enthusiast.
Even Jiraiya, who was as unfiltered as it got, probably didn't have a kink that specific.
Jiraiya appreciated all beautiful women equally—he didn't care what they wore.
And if your hormone and dopamine levels were constantly spiked...
Wouldn't you basically be high 24/7?
Average Looks Filter actually sounded kind of useful, though.
If anyone ever wanted to detach from worldly desires and become a monk, Shinno could totally hook them up.
"System, activate [Master of Magical Wardrobe Change]," he sighed.
He activated the only purple trait in the batch.
If his guess was right, this ability came straight from the Fairy Tail world—like the one used by Titania Erza, who could swap armor mid-fight.
Hey, it's a purple trait. Not bad.
Although, as a ninja...
Wait a second.
Oh.
Oh hell yes!
As soon as the massive stream of training memories, magical theory, and personal knowledge poured into his mind, he could feel it.
A whole magical arsenal had opened up inside his "mana core."
...
A huge smile broke out across Shinno's face.
Looking cool while swapping outfits was a bonus.
The real kicker? That arsenal space was nearly a thousand cubic meters.
And the definition of "weapons and armor" was... extremely flexible.
Kunai, shuriken, senbon? Obviously weapons.
Exploding tags, soldier pills, even storage scrolls? Counted as gear too.
He could probably toss a plate of food in there and it would register as a weapon.
Wasn't this just a portable storage dimension?
And maybe because chakra didn't have a traditional "mana source"...
The trait had adapted accordingly.
Now, instead of being tied to a "mana core," the magical arsenal was fully linked to his chakra and soul.
Which meant...
Even if he used Mind-Body Switch to control someone else's body...
He could still summon items from his arsenal.
[Detected synergy between Gold trait 'Multiversal Traveler' and Purple trait 'Master of Magical Wardrobe Change'. Trait has evolved into Red trait 'Infinite Arsenal'.]
Infinite Arsenal (Red): A once-simple magic blossoms into brilliance under the influence of exceptional spatial affinity. Store any object in your personal arsenal and access them at will. Arsenal space is vastly expanded. Weapon mastery, summoning speed, combat technique, and magical control all drastically improved.
"This... is basically a mash-up of Gate of Babylon and Unlimited Blade Works!"
Shinno blinked as the system's voice rang out again, then looked at himself in awe.
His control over the swapping magic hadn't changed much...
But the storage space that was once a mere thousand cubic meters had expanded exponentially in all directions.
He turned toward the Gedo Statue, still sealed and dormant on its lotus pedestal.
With Flying Thunder God, he instantly teleported in front of it.
Placing a hand on the massive statue, he wrapped it in a torrent of powerful Sage Chakra.
The space around them rippled.
And the Gedo Statue—hundreds of meters tall even while seated—vanished into thin air!
He checked his arsenal.
Sure enough, the statue now occupied a corner of the space.
Shinno swallowed hard.
If the arsenal could hold living beings...
He could probably take every single person in Konoha on a world tour!
This space was insane!
Who even needs storage scrolls anymore?!
