The Sage's Robe, as the name implies, is the clothing of a sage. Also known as the Damage Reduction Robe, it possesses the ability to reduce both physical and magical damage, and it can also transform into any other appearance.

"A transformation robe? It can reduce damage too? How does it reduce damage?" Qingyun probed, wanting to get to the bottom of the garment's capabilities.

"That is the brilliance of this robe! It can reduce any damage by 30%! There are already very few people capable of harming you, but even if someone manages to land a hit, this robe provides absolute damage reduction. No matter how powerful or how weak the attack is, when it strikes you..."

"It will be reduced to 70 percent. That is indeed a good item."

"Indeed. Not only can it mitigate physical attacks, but it can also resist all ninjutsu and genjutsu damage. It can also transform into any style of clothing, so you won't need to buy clothes in the future," the system explained in great detail.

Qingyun nodded. His luck had been quite good; such an item likely didn't even exist in this world.

"And what is this 'Turn Decay into Magic' ability?" Qingyun asked immediately.

"If you have abilities or items you no longer need, you can contribute them directly, and you will gain the qualification to draw a reward once more," the system said.

"That is 'Turn Decay into Magic'?" Qingyun felt this reward was rather mediocre.

Seeming to sense Qingyun's disdain, the system immediately explained, "Host, do not forget, this is 'Turn Decay into Magic.' That is to say, the ability or item you contribute will absolutely not be inferior to the previous one!"

"It is even possible for it to be much stronger!"

"Oh!" Qingyun suddenly understood.

"My apologies, I was hasty. Haha, then let me think for a moment." Qingyun immediately closed his eyes to ponder.

"Chakra Enhanced Strength, Armament Haki, Goro Goro no Mi, and the Flying Thunder God, which will be useful in the future, are all valuable. Looking at it now, the most useless one is the Chop-Chop Fruit, because it is truly too silly, and I have never used it once."

After thinking for a long time, Qingyun finally made his decision.

"That's decided then. I will contribute the Chop-Chop Fruit!" Qingyun said.

"Understood! Confirming contribution of the Chop-Chop Fruit!"

"Ding, ding, ding! Congratulations, Host! You have obtained the reward: doubled sensory perception!"

"Doubled sensory perception!" Qingyun already possessed the ability to see through others' chakra, and his sensory range was naturally far beyond that of an ordinary ninja.

Now that his perception was doubled, it naturally allowed Qingyun to sense and see through people at a much greater distance.

Moreover, Qingyun was quite reliant on this ability of his. Originally, he could sense things within a few meters; now that it had doubled, he could sense the chakra of people within a dozen meters.

For Qingyun, this was undoubtedly an incredibly useful ability.

This type of sensory ability would grow rapidly with age and the increase of chakra. During the Fourth Great Ninja War, the Second Hokage was able to sense Uchiha Madara's chakra on the battlefield.

Qingyun hoped that, by that time, he would be able to sense the entire ninja world.

"Host, have you always wanted to figure out why you could appear by an opponent's side with a single thought?" the system asked.

"System, if you know, don't keep me in suspense. Just tell me," Qingyun said.

"Because you are a user of the Goro Goro no Mi. Although we do not allow elementalization, we do allow the Goro Goro no Mi to transform into lightning and utilize radio waves for short-range teleportation."

After hearing the system's words, Qingyun patted his head and said, "So that's how it is! If that's the case, then the Flying Thunder God is meaningless. Why did I bother with those space-time techniques? I can just use radio wave teleportation directly!"

The system said, "That is correct. The stronger your strength and sensory ability, the larger the range you can teleport. This is equivalent to the Flying Thunder God."

"System, can I exchange it? Can you swap the Flying Thunder God for something else?" Qingyun felt a deep sense of regret regarding that particular draw.

"Host, do not be anxious. As you grow, you will naturally draw those duplicates that make you regretful, which is why the 'Turn Decay into Magic' ability card exists."

"The Flying Thunder God technique is considered a very high-level item among the cards. Since that is the case, as long as you kill more enemies, you will have the chance to draw 'Turn Decay into Magic,' and you can just swap the Flying Thunder God then," the system said, doing its best to soothe Qingyun.

Qingyun was clearly satisfied with the system's explanation, as thinking about it this way made him feel much better.

"Fine, since you've put it that way, what else is there for me to say? Time to sleep!"

Qingyun then drifted off into a deep sleep. When he woke up the next day, he suddenly had an idea.

"Since the Goro Goro no Mi doesn't utilize chakra, that means the energy of my Goro Goro no Mi is infinite. Since it's infinite, why don't I bootleg a Chidori?" Qingyun then acted immediately.

Because he had completely fused with the Goro Goro no Mi, gathering a ball of lightning in his hand was a simple matter.

And as for locking onto an opponent, relying on his ability to see through enemy chakra, he essentially possessed the functionality of the Sharingan.

"Chidori!" Qingyun's hand struck a tree, but the tree was not smashed to pieces; instead, it was scorched black by the electricity.

"Something's not right. My lightning doesn't seem to have that piercing, cutting intent; it only has the intent of wild destruction and explosion."

Qingyun immediately went to consult his teacher, White Fang.

"Your lightning is extremely violent. You only know how to release it; you haven't learned how to control it, so it lacks cohesion." White Fang then took out his White Fang Blade.

"Watch this." White Fang gripped the blade, and lightning immediately surged forth. He then ran toward a tree.

With a gentle swing, the massive tree was severed instantly.

At the moment it broke, it emitted a sizzling sound.

"Lightning Release itself possesses destructive power. If you can bind this violent lightning to a blade—no, if you can bind the power of lightning to a single needle, only then can your control over lightning be considered to have entered the hall of mastery."

"The other attributes are the same." White Fang then utilized Wind Release, once again easily felling a tree.

Qingyun finally understood why he couldn't bootleg the Chidori: he simply didn't know how to control the power. Although this power was not chakra, it was very similar to it.

"Terrifying! Teacher White Fang is truly strict. Locking lightning onto a needle... I doubt even he has mastered that level of control!"

Although Qingyun was unconvinced in his heart, his body was very obedient.

Utilizing the bug of the Shadow Clone, he trained frantically every day. White Fang was afraid that Qingyun's reckless approach would be counterproductive, but only Qingyun knew that no matter how much he trained, he wouldn't die of exhaustion—after all, he had the system protecting him!
