"The system will now perform a hundred consecutive draws… multiplied by a thousand."
When Kaoru Tsubasa heard the system's mechanical voice, he immediately prepared to use his System Upgrade Coupon.
[Ding! Insufficient system space detected. Please select which tier of items to destroy. If not chosen, rare items will be automatically discarded.]
"Destroy everything below diamond tier," Kaoru said decisively after a moment of thought.
A thousand sets of hundred-fold draws meant a hundred purple-gold tier items at minimum. Yet his system inventory only had sixty-four slots—barely enough to hold even a fraction of them. Even if he kept only the highest-tier items, most would be lost.

…
"Amazing… what a haul," Kaoru muttered, grinning as he scrolled through the glowing icons in his inventory.
"System, use the System Upgrade Coupon right now."
He couldn't wait to enhance the system's functions—it would boost Luffy and the others' strength significantly. Yet as he scanned the inventory, Kaoru realized something ironic: despite all those purple-gold items, not a single one was directly useful for Luffy's crew.
[Ding! Warning. Please use or clear all items in the system space before upgrading. Otherwise, all stored items will be destroyed upon upgrade.]
Hearing that, Kaoru sighed and decided to use what he could before proceeding.
[Virtual Space]: A purple-gold tier artifact capable of pulling entities into a simulated world. It can recreate any environment or scenario within it. Others may also be drawn inside with their consent.
"This is just like the one I used against Rock Lee… but even more advanced."
The crystal orb shimmered before condensing into a sleek necklace.
"Perfect," Kaoru said with satisfaction. "Luffy and the others can train inside this Virtual Space."
[Space Wall Enhancement Voucher]: A purple-gold tier item that strengthens the dimensional boundary of a designated world.
"Eh… kind of underwhelming," Kaoru muttered. "How is this even purple-gold tier?"
When he activated it, the item transformed into a miniature golden pyramid that floated for a moment before vanishing into the system.
"Next."
[Triple Card Chakra]: A purple-gold tier essence extracted from the Naruto world. Grants its user the chakra capacity equivalent to three elite jōnin—three Kakashis, to be precise.
"Now this is something worth keeping."
Kaoru activated the chakra immediately. A warm current surged through his body, pulsing with power.
"So this is chakra…" he whispered, watching a purple flame-like aura flicker in his palm. He couldn't help but smile.
[Mangekyō Sharingan (Powerless Version)]: A purple-gold bloodline artifact from the Naruto world. The final evolution of the Uchiha's ocular power, though this version lacks the unique techniques of true Mangekyō users. However, it allows access to the third ability—Susanoo—through synchronized focus from both eyes.
Kaoru's mind stirred. "If I remember correctly… I also got a single-tomoe Sharingan earlier."
He rummaged through his system space until he found it tucked away in a corner, then immediately fused both ocular items.
"Ugh…" A wave of agony shot through his skull. Kaoru clutched his face as blood tears streamed from his eyes.
Minutes later, the pain subsided. He summoned a mirror from the inventory and looked at his reflection.
His left eye gleamed crimson with a single tomoe, while his right eye shone with a rotating five-pointed star.
He blinked, and his vision sharpened dramatically. He could now make out the outline of a tiny island—thousands of miles away.
"Unbelievable," he murmured, awed by the clarity. Then he turned back to the remaining items.
[Sharingan Upgrade Voucher]: A purple-gold voucher from a parallel Naruto world. Each one enhances the Sharingan by one stage. Four vouchers are required to evolve a Mangekyō Sharingan into an Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
"Use three of these to upgrade my single-tomoe Sharingan to Mangekyō."
Without hesitation, Kaoru began the process. Having one ordinary tomoe and one Mangekyō was simply… ugly.
After all, as the saying goes—power is temporary, but style is forever.
[Ding! Single-Tomoe Sharingan → Double-Tomoe Sharingan.]
[Ding! Double-Tomoe Sharingan → Triple-Tomoe Sharingan.]
[Ding! Triple-Tomoe Sharingan → Mangekyō Sharingan.]
A thin line of blood trickled down Kaoru's left cheek again, but this time the pain barely fazed him. He watched in the mirror as his left eye transformed from single to double to triple tomoe—and finally into a second five-pointed star.
[Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have obtained a matched pair of Mangekyō Sharingan and unlocked the Third Power: Susanoo.]
A low, thunderous hum filled the air.
Before Kaoru realized it, a massive skeletal frame erupted around him. Tendons and muscle rapidly formed, then a suit of purple armor encased the giant.
His Susanoo had manifested.
"Whoa—what the hell is that, Kaoru!?"
Luffy's voice rang out as he sprinted toward him—only to be blocked by the spectral warrior's aura.
"What is that thing?" Zoro asked, squinting up at the towering figure.
"Is it… a robot?" Sanji muttered, baffled, his cigarette hanging from his lips.
Kaoru Tsubasa stood within the glowing giant, his twin Mangekyō eyes gleaming like stars.
For the first time, he truly felt the weight of power—and the thrill of creation itself.
