Sword Box

There were three Kusanagi Swords that appeared in Naruto, held by Orochimaru, Sasuke, and Itachi respectively,

However, that did not mean there were only three Kusanagi Swords. There were also unknown Kusanagi Swords scattered throughout the outside world.

The appearance and practicality of the Kusanagi Sword fit Sora Uchiha's ideas perfectly. On top of that, he needed a sword to unleash the full power of Uchiha's Glory.

Therefore, Sora Uchiha made this request.

" Kusanagi Sword?" Fugaku pondered for a moment. "There seems to be one in the clan treasury. I'll have someone look for it tomorrow. If it's there, it'll be delivered to your residence tomorrow." He did not hesitate, readily agreeing to Sora Uchiha's condition.

In fact, Sora Uchiha asking them for something suited him even better. All this time, the Uchiha Clan had never had anything they could give Sora Uchiha.

As the saying went, if you wanted a horse to run, you had to feed it grass.

Now that Sora Uchiha had taken the initiative to ask for a Kusanagi Sword, Fugaku naturally could not have been happier. He imagined the clan elders would gladly accept it as well.

"By the way, if possible, you could include some Kunai and Shuriken too. Hmm... preferably sharper ones." Sora Uchiha added.

There would probably be quite a few missions from the Anbu over the next period of time, so he wanted to get his equipment as good as possible. If he encountered an enemy he could not defeat, it would at least improve his chances of survival.

"Mm, I understand." Fugaku readily agreed. "They'll be delivered to your home tomorrow along with the Kusanagi Sword."

"Thank you, Clan Head." Sora Uchiha clasped his hands in salute. The displeasure he had felt at having to come here so late vanished like smoke in the wind, replaced by a flicker of delight in his eyes.

"Mm, it's so late. Go home, or Momosuke will worry."

"All right."

"Mikoto, see Sora out."

Mikoto's gentle voice came from inside the room. A moment later, Mikoto emerged in her house clothes, a smile on her face.

"Auntie, there's no need to trouble yourself. It's cold outside, and you might catch a chill." Sora Uchiha hurriedly spoke. Before Mikoto could react, he dashed away.

Fugaku was stunned for a moment before breaking into helpless laughter. "That boy..."

"Momosuke really did raise a fine son." Mikoto looked at the tightly closed door and sighed. "Her younger son Shisui has also displayed astonishing talent recently."

"Yes, Momosuke is truly blessed." Fugaku nodded. "But I believe Itachi won't be inferior either."

As he spoke, satisfaction flashed through his eyes. Uchiha's new generation was far more outstanding than the previous one, seemingly signifying that the Uchiha were about to rise again.

After returning home, Sora Uchiha naturally received a thorough scolding from his mother. Fortunately, he had been delayed by legitimate business this time and escaped the worst of it.

After chatting with his father for a while, he returned to his room, bringing this busy day to an end...

The following day,

Sora Uchiha had not expected Fugaku to move so quickly. The Kusanagi Sword and throwing weapons they had agreed on the previous night were delivered first thing in the morning.

"Wow, Big Brother, what's this? It looks so heavy." Shisui stared at the sturdy wooden box on the ground, his eyes shining with the curiosity of his age.

"This? It's called a Sword Box." Sora Uchiha smiled as he explained.

He picked up the Sword Box from the ground and tested its weight. It was quite heavy, probably around ten kilograms. He had no idea where the Uchiha Clan had dug up this thing.

With a faint, creaking sound, the wooden Sword Box, sealed for who knew how many years, was slowly opened. The inside was lined with black velvet, and a long sword gleaming with a cold light rested neatly in its groove.

The blade's lines were smooth and elegant, its chill gleaming sharply. The decorations on the guard and pommel were intricate and exquisite, all of them proclaiming that this Kusanagi Sword had been crafted by an extraordinary smith.

"What a sword!"

Sora Uchiha blurted it out. He picked up the long sword, unable to put it down, and casually spun it in a flourish. A sharp sound tore through the air.

After some thought, he pulled out a long strand of hair and held it over the blade. Then he let go. The instant the strand touched the edge, it was sliced cleanly in two!

After pondering for a moment, he suddenly struck. A Kunai was tossed into the air, and a flash of sword light swept past. The Kunai was split apart instantly!

"It cuts through iron as easily as mud! It really is a fine sword!"

Sora Uchiha played with it for a while before reluctantly setting it aside. Then he resumed examining the Sword Box.

The Clan Head had only sent one Sword Box. The sword was inside, but what about the Shuriken and Kunai mentioned yesterday?

There was no way Fugaku had gone back on his word or forgotten, so the problem had to lie with the Sword Box.

He reached inside and felt around. Before long, his eyes lit up as his fingers found a slightly raised button.

He pressed it.

Just as expected, the Sword Box had a hidden compartment! Inside it lay Shuriken and Kunai, each gleaming with a dazzling, razor-sharp chill.

He took out a Kunai. The moment he touched it, he felt an inexplicable coolness.

"This material... is incredible." Sora Uchiha muttered to himself. He could sense that the Kunai contained a massive amount of Chakra energy.

After pondering for a moment, he suddenly flung the Kunai with force. With a muffled thud, it sank several inches into the trunk of the willow beside him. It was buried so deeply that pulling it out by brute force would be nearly impossible.

Then Sora Uchiha's heart stirred. In the next instant, the Kunai flew out of the trunk and returned to his hand.

"Just as I thought." His face lit up with delight.

The Kunai had been forged from some special material containing a massive amount of Chakra energy. As long as he wished, he could extend invisible Chakra Threads from the Kunai and retrieve it directly, just like the threads used in the Puppet Technique.

He felt over all the remaining Kunai and Shuriken. They were all made of that special material. In other words, he now possessed a batch of throwing weapons that could be reused repeatedly in battle!

"Big Brother, there's a note here." Shisui spoke up at that moment, taking a note from the Sword Box.

Sora Uchiha opened it and found that the note explained the origin of this batch of throwing weapons.

[Crafted from Gelel Stone and metal after forty-nine days of forging]

Gelel Stone?

Sora Uchiha thought for a long while before finally remembering that this special ore seemed to have appeared in one of the Naruto theatrical films. Its unique feature was that it contained a huge amount of Chakra energy.

That was also the main reason this batch of throwing weapons could be controlled with Chakra.

"Excellent, excellent. The Clan Head really gave me a huge surprise." Sora Uchiha grinned broadly, unable to hold back his laughter.

After examining it for a while, he discovered that the Sword Box could extend and retract. At its shortest, it was the same length as the Kusanagi Sword. He slung it over his shoulder, placing his right hand naturally against its side, and found that it did not hinder his movements at all.

"My son is so handsome."

At some point, his mother Riya had come over and was giving Sora Uchiha a thumbs-up.

"Of course. Just look at how beautiful my mother is."

Sora Uchiha lightly patted the Sword Box and straightened his back proudly.
