Chapter 74: Finally, It's Mine!
The ninja tool shop is a semi-monopoly, with generations of artisans passing down their skills and and secrets. Design blueprints, forging techniques, and exclusive material suppliers are are closely guarded,, never shared outside the family family.

ever shared outside the family.
Theoretically, for a new and unsupported family like the Senkawa to surpass a well-established ninja tool shop is an impossible task.
However, in practice, there is a way to achieve this, and it's quite quite is and it's quite simple is quite simple.
quite simple.
Luk quietly recalled the Divine Mechanism of a Hundred Forgings in his mind. This technique was incredibly powerful, and he had no doubt he could crush his competition.
The problem was, if he sold the products of the Divine Mechanism of a Hundred Forgings in the village, he would offend his competitors and likely be forcibly cons by the Third Hokage or Danzo.
Perhaps it was time to leave Konoha and develop elsewhere. If he continued to be so constrained, the other Leks would call him a slacker.
As Luk pondered his escape plan, he began to study the Divine Mechanism of a Hundred Forgings.
As one of the eight odd techniques, the Divine Mechanism of a Hundred Forgings was incredibly advanced, spanning three main sections: The Preliminary Section, the Runes Section, and the Structure Section.
The Preliminary Section covers material processing, including quick methods for material manipulation and transformation. Material manipulation allows for the precise handling of materials, while material transformation enables the modification of the material's properties; the better the material, the stronger the result.
The Runes Section is the core of the Divine Mechanism of a Hundred Forgings. By engraving various runes with unique effects, one can achieve extraordinary results.
For example, runes like "Hard," "Sharp," and "Heat-Resistant" enhance material properties, while runes like "Flame," "Ice," and "Thunder" imbue the material with elemental magic. There are even mystical runes like "Malice Perception," "Automatic Activation," and "Spatial" that, when engraved on a weapon, turn it into a basic magical artifact.
The Structure Section oversees the entire process, detailing how to design specific magical artifacts, including the combination of runes and the internal mechanisms of the artifact.
In the original story, the magical artifacts used by Ma Xianhong were based on blueprints in the Divine Mechanism of a Hundred Forgings. He likely created them based on the principles outlined in the Structure Section.
After a thorough review, Luk felt a bit overwhelmed by the vast amount of knowledge. He rubbed his temples and walked into the forge, ready to combine theory with practice.
With the help of his father, Senkawa Takashi, to step back and let him handle all the daily operations.
At first, Senkawa Takashi was opposed, but seeing his son's increasing strength and how he could forge iron and still have the energy to visit his girlfriend, Shochu, he consented, the Luk asked for help if he got too tired.
Surveying the forge, Luk decided to start by upgrading his tools.
First, he upgraded the forge, adding the "High Temperature" and "Heat-Resistant" runes. Without actively using his qi, the forge would reach higher temperatures than than higher temperatures, than before, but not to the point of overheating.
Next, he tackled the hammer. This tool was was more convenient and lighter the hammer becoming the the stronger becoming" and stronger the handle material stronger he the and tool the,.
stronger and satisfied him.
The Divine Mechanism of a Hundred Forgings was indeed powerful. With a variety of rune effects, it might not be useful in high-level combat, but it could be a valuable tool for mass production equipment artifacts and giving him more options tools options artifacts.
Moreover, if he Divine Mechanism of a Hundred Forgings...
He could build it!
After half an hour of intensive work, Luk completed his first official creation—"The Faceless One."
A ring with a blurry visual cognition ability, when worn, makes others no longer focus on the wearer's appearance.
This was to escape the increasingly uncontrollable "charm" attribute that came with the growing number of Luk versions.
As a true pure-love supporter among the Luks, Naruto Luk decided he wouldn't want any other women after Shizukana. He knew his character, and if a girl really came to him, he would likely not be able to resist. So, he decided to seal his succubus-like charm.
Next, he returned to his room to retrieve the ninjutsu sword he had bought. The material of this sword was far superior to the raw iron used to forge shurikens and kunai in the forge, and Luk estimated it could bear more inscriptions.
After melting the ninjutsu sword, Luk manipulated the molten metal, which seemed like iron but wasn't quite, to form a delicate and ornate blade under his control.
After repeated tempering, the final product had a slender blade with a crescent moon-shaped decoration at the hilt, exuding an elegant and powerful aura.
The design was inspired by the Moonveil katana from the game "Elden Ring" that Luk had played before.
Adding the inscriptions "Sharp" and "Sturdy" to the hilt, Luk struggled with the combat technique "Moonveil in the Gaps."
There were no "light waves" in the inscriptions, so he added "Cold" instead, convincing himself that it was a fusion of the Moonveil and the Moonlight Greatsword.
"Let's call it Moonlight."
Looking at the elegant and powerful Moonlight, Luk felt that such a cool weapon was perfect for showing off. Moreover, since it was different from its original form, he wouldn't have to worry about being recognized when using it.
Placing Moonlight in the corner of the room, Luk frowned, thinking it was a bit too conspicuous. He then wrapped it in a cloth bag and hid it under the bed.
He needed to hurry and prepare a storage bag, Luk thought to himself. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain these conspicuous items. The priority for the "Spatial" inscription could be moved up a bit.
...
After dinner, Luk, as usual, spent some time with Shizukana, escorted her home, and said goodbye with a kiss under the disapproving gaze of her father.
When the night grew deep and everyone was asleep, Luk slowly opened his eyes, got up, locked the door, and walked to his desk.
A white light flashed, and "Maito Gai" stood in his place.
The four skills he gained after the transformation were "Eight Gates," "Summoning Technique - Turtle," "Leaf Whirlwind," and "Great Leaf Whirlwind."
The taijutsu ninja, who had been lacking in skills, suddenly got a jackpot. Besides the skills, Luk discovered that the Maito Gai mode had an additional trait— "Perseverance."
"Perseverance": The body is not affected by injuries until the health points are completely depleted.
No wonder the man who almost kicked his way to the grand finale! Luk couldn't help but exclaim, "Damn, impressive!" He then quickly wrote down all the relevant knowledge, training points, and key elements of the skills in his mind.
After de-transforming, Luk quickly scanned the pages filled with notes to confirm he had memorized everything, then burned them and flushed the ashes down the toilet.
After completing this series of actions, Luk let out a long sigh, his face flushed, and lay back in bed.
After waiting so long, he finally got the Eight Gates.
It felt like finally unlocking the CG of a favorite female character in a dating sim!
