NARUTO: THE STRONGEST UZUMAKI

For the rest of the day, Tanaka tried to create a bracelet capable of simulating chakra, deceiving the eyes of others, even if they were observing him with something similar to the Byakugan. After several failures, losing almost all the materials he had... The best result he managed to achieve was a ring that could make his MP appear to be chakra.

However, this wasn't the result he desired. Still, it was strange because the amount of MP he had, when converted to chakra, was comparable to that of a Bijuu.

The fact was that it wasn't just about numbers. By using the ring, it didn't mean he suddenly had 16,000 chakra, but rather, a higher amount, since it was from a purer energy source.

Don't be mistaken; it doesn't mean that chakra itself is bad or inferior, but conventional chakra is more 'polluted,' so to speak. It's like comparing filtered water to seawater. Although both are water, there's a vast difference between the two.

Bijuu Chakra is a good example. The Bijuus, like the Kyuubi, have chakras that are much more powerful and denser than ordinary human chakra. A Bijuu's chakra can be considered of "high purity" because of its strength and intensity.

Okay, back to the subject...

Looking at the five-clawed ring, he reflected for a moment before putting it on.

'For now, I'll have to be satisfied with this…' Tanaka thought.

The 'worst' part was that it had additional effects…

[User Restriction: Tanaka Uzumaki]

══════

Due to the additional special effects, his 'chakra' became absurdly large.

Luckily, he was doing this in the room created by Akane; otherwise, he could have caused a small commotion in the village by releasing so much chakra.

Sitting down, he began to meditate while trying to make his 'chakra' less transparent.

Luckily, he had MP control skills, so he could prevent his MP from leaking, and also, he needed to consider the body of a gamer, which made it easier for him to control the MP within him.

Little by little, he managed to reduce the pressure of the 'chakra' he was emitting at that moment.

'I should try to create something to help me better control my MP…' Tanaka thought.

══════

After dinner, Tanaka asked them to wait in the living room, where he presented Kushina with her gift.

"This is for me?" Kushina seemed surprised and, at the same time, delighted.

"Yes, I made it especially for you." Tanaka smiled a bit nervously, unsure of her reaction when she opened the box: "I hope you like it."

Placing the box on the table, she opened it. As she did, her eyes sparkled.

"How beautiful – Dattebane!!"

She was so moved that she clapped her hands.

It wasn't entirely clear if she knew what it was, but the structure of the shoes was quite sophisticated, and in the colors that Tanaka knew Kushina liked, so her reaction was understandable.

Akane, who also saw them, looked at him: "Tanaka, this is…"

"A shoe. I call it Kawaii Wheeled Shoes." Tanaka said: "I made it myself. I believe it's more comfortable to wear and has some special effects."

Akane looked at the shoes, frowning slightly, not quite understanding.

"Kushina, you need to wear these on your feet," Tanaka explained. He then thought of something amusing and added, "When you put them on, you need to say: 'By the powers granted to this little princess, equip.'"

"Ohhh, okay~" she sang, looking over at her mother.

Akane smiled and helped her sit on the couch to put on the shoes.

It wasn't complicated; despite the unique design, it wasn't a Rubik's cube. She easily managed to put the shoes on Kushina's feet, who then joyfully swung her feet, admiring the shoes with sparkling eyes.

When she stood up, the laces were not tied, and Tanaka hadn't mentioned they needed to be.

Akane wasn't sure, but she seemed a bit worried, yet she kept watching from the side.

The truth was, while helping Kushina put on the shoes, she had briefly analyzed them and, seeing no danger, she relaxed. It wasn't that she didn't trust Tanaka, but as a mother, she was concerned.

Kushina struck a cool pose, raising one hand in the air with her index finger extended, then said, "By the powers granted to this little princess, equip... Dattebane~!"

She couldn't help but add a 'Dattebane' at the end, due to her excitement.

As soon as she spoke the words, especially when she said 'equip,' the untied laces began to form a beautiful bow, the shoes started to glow, and in Kushina's mind, information about the shoes' use was conveyed.

Kushina, who heard a sweet and unfamiliar voice, looked around, confused. However, before she could get more confused, the voice explained several things, and she looked at Tanaka with total surprise.

'Was all this done by Oniichan?' She already knew he was a genius, but this was something she had never seen before. Of course, she was just a child and hadn't seen much of what the world had to offer, yet this was too surprising for her.

However, being a child who didn't dwell on thoughts for long, she wanted to test what the voice had explained. Kushina activated the two options.

In an instant, the soles of the shoes began to glow.

Akane watched this scene with her mouth slightly open. She saw the entire process and felt it was something truly magical.

'How was he able to do this?' she wondered, puzzled.

"Mom, mom, look – Dattebane!!" Kushina walked towards her mother but stopped after taking three steps.

This was, of course, due to the second option, which was the real reason for the creation of the shoes: voices saying 'Kawaii' with each step she took.

At first, even Akane looked around, feeling like her senses were being deceived, but when she realized the voices were coming from the shoes Tanaka had given her daughter, she was more than shocked.

"H-How?" she murmured.

This was something that had never been done before. The lights could still be explained somehow, but where did those voices come from, and how did he do it?

There were so many questions clouding Akane's mind that it took her a while to respond to her daughter.

On the other hand, Kushina, who realized the voices saying 'Kawaii' were coming from her pair of shoes, her large sapphire eyes sparkled like the stars in the sky. She quickly started running while saying, "Amazing, amazing, amazing – Dattebane!!"

This alone created an incredibly cute situation, with her doing this while the shoes glowed and gentle voices said, 'Kawaii.'
