"So that's how it is."
Shinji hurriedly flipped through the Magic Array Compendium again.
With Shion's talent, creating a Magic Ring within a year or two was practically a certainty. Since that was the case, Shinji naturally had to put some thought into Shion's Magic Ring.
A Magic Ring's focus mainly depended on the magic arrays a mage fused into it. If it contained more offensive arrays, the resulting Magic Ring would naturally be offensive. Conversely, if it contained more defensive arrays, the Magic Ring would lean more toward defense.
The greatest threat to the Shinobi World right now came from the Overlord of Fear beyond the spatial barrier. That made the Overlord of Fear their hypothetical enemy, so Shion's Magic Ring would ideally focus on mental defense—for example, abilities that could immunize her against or weaken fear, strengthen her will, or cleanse corruption.
With a plan in mind, it was easy for Shinji to choose.
He marked up the compendium and quickly picked out ten high-level magic arrays. Without exception, they were all support or defensive arrays. Not one of them was offensive.
He intended Shion's Magic Ring to focus on support and defense. As for offense, he, the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, could take care of that.

The voice from behind startled Amado. He hurried to his feet. "Lord Jigen!"
Jigen didn't waste time. "Come with me!"
"Yes!"
Amado bowed respectfully, then followed Jigen.
Before long, they arrived
