Explosion-Proof Suit

As Nawaki gazed at his older sister, Tsunade, he couldn't help but hesitate.

Madara Uchiha's sudden appearance had indeed left him stunned, but Madara's words had flashed through his mind like lightning, etching themselves deep in his heart.

That was right. Only by enduring the trials and tribulations of war could one truly grow stronger.

For Nawaki, who was determined to become Konoha's great Hokage, going to the front lines and fighting was an incredibly rare opportunity. No matter what, he didn't want to let it slip by.

So Nawaki met Tsunade's worried, caring gaze and said firmly, "Sis, even if the enemy is clearly targeting me this time, I still insist on going to the front lines to fight."

He paused briefly, his gaze growing ever more resolute, as if a blazing fire burned within him. Then he declared, "Regardless of whether Madara Uchiha is good or evil, just his final words—'You have to experience the trials of battle to grow'—are enough to make up my mind. I have to go!"

Nawaki's eyes brimmed with determination. He showed no sign of backing down. Faced with her little brother's resolve, Tsunade was at a loss for a moment, unsure how to respond.

Just then, Uchiha Kō gently placed a hand on Tsunade's shoulder, trying to soothe her agitation.

Uzumaki Mito was somewhat dazed. As she looked at Nawaki, she seemed to see Hashirama as he had been in the past, always charging forward even when surrounded by powerful enemies.

Nawaki's strength couldn't compare to Hashirama's, but Mito couldn't bring herself to dampen his enthusiasm.

She sighed deeply, a helpless look on her face, and gently shook her head.

Her grandchildren were growing up and becoming more independent. Mito sighed to herself. Ah, children must find their own fortunes.

Even so, the one she worried about most at that moment was Senju Nawaki. She sincerely hoped he would return safe and sound.

Mito shook her head and went back to her room. Seeing this, Uchiha Kō sighed, then prepared to take out the Explosion-Proof Suit he had bought for his brother-in-law.

Uchiha Kō focused and used his thoughts to send the mysterious system Senju Nawaki's precise measurements, including his height and age.

After receiving the information, the system swiftly adjusted the 2090 Explosion-Proof Suit to fit Nawaki perfectly.

Next, Uchiha Kō deftly pulled a finely made Storage Scroll from his clothes.

Under the curious gazes of Tsunade and Nawaki, he began to circulate his chakra. In an instant, a crisp bang rang out, and a dense cloud of white smoke billowed up with a "poof!"

While Tsunade and Nawaki were distracted by the sudden smoke, the system and Uchiha Kō worked together flawlessly, silently transporting the modified Explosion-Proof Suit into the cloud.

The whole operation was so seamless that it looked as if the suit had been taken from the Storage Scroll all along.

Caught off guard, Tsunade and Nawaki choked on the thick white smoke and began coughing repeatedly. Tsunade's ample chest bounced with every violent cough, nearly making Uchiha Kō's Sharingan stare.

Realizing he had lost his composure, Uchiha Kō hurriedly came to his senses and looked away.

He nervously rubbed his eyes, secretly relieved. Thank goodness Tsunade and Nawaki were both having trouble opening their eyes because of the smoke. Otherwise, I'd have embarrassed myself and died of shame right here!

Once the swirling smoke and mysterious scroll had completely vanished, Uchiha Kō, who had kept his eyes shut the whole time, finally opened them.

The corners of his mouth lifted into a warm, gentle smile. Tsunade, just coming out of her shock, happened to catch sight of it.

Looking at the man's charming smile, Tsunade felt her cheeks grow warm and her heart seemed to skip a beat.

She instinctively tried to look away, only to find her gaze held fast, unable to move even slightly.

Meanwhile, Senju Nawaki wasn't paying attention to Uchiha Kō the way his sister was. Instead, all his attention was fixed on Kō's hands.

A seemingly ordinary garment rested quietly in Uchiha Kō's palm.

"Brother Kō, what kind of clothes are you holding?" Nawaki asked curiously, pointing at the garment.

Hearing her little brother's question, Tsunade snapped out of her daze and turned her gaze to Uchiha Kō's hand.

Only then did she notice that a black, jacket-like garment had appeared in Kō's hand at some point.

Seeing everyone's attention focused on the garment, Uchiha Kō was secretly delighted. He knew he had piqued their interest.

He quickly smiled and explained, "Tsunade, don't underestimate this suit! It isn't ordinary clothing. It's a special ninja tool I prepared for Nawaki.

"It may look plain, just like any ordinary garment, but it actually has incredibly powerful defensive capabilities.

"It can completely nullify damage from any explosion, and its defensive power is astonishing.

"Even against a Kage Level fighter's full-force attack, it can withstand three hits!"

Tsunade's face first brightened with surprise, but she quickly furrowed her brow and asked skeptically, "Kō, are you really sure that this little leather jacket can withstand a Kage Level fighter's fierce attack?"

It was no wonder Tsunade was skeptical. At first glance, the garment before her looked utterly ordinary, with nothing to make it stand out.

Its color was dull, and its design was plain, with no unique features or decorations to catch the eye.

Tsunade even felt that a single swing of her blade would tear the suit apart as easily as a sheet of paper.

But in response to Tsunade's doubts, Uchiha Kō offered no further explanation. He simply smiled and beckoned to Senju Nawaki, who stood nearby.

Seeing this, Nawaki felt a little puzzled, but because he trusted Uchiha Kō, he walked toward him without hesitation.
