Time flew by, and a few days passed; the rebellion of the Kaguya Clan had long since been quelled.

Aragaki Yasushi had been waiting for reinforcements from the village, keeping his head down and avoiding any unnecessary trouble.

Early this morning, the moment Aragaki Yasushi opened his eyes, he couldn't wait to pull up the system panel, his gaze locked firmly onto the gacha pool section.

The next second, a system prompt popped up.

[Would you like to bind "Pokemon" as the permanent pool?]

Aragaki Yasushi didn't even think about it; he refused on the spot.

Bind it, my foot.

He was still counting on pulling talismans and masks from the Jackie Chan Adventures pool.

If he bound the Pokemon pool as the permanent one, wouldn't the Jackie Chan Adventures pool be overwritten?

He had already pulled a Master Ball, so the Pokemon pool was useless to him now.

Although the Pokemon pool contained many heaven-defying moves and items, the sheer volume of moves and items made the odds of pulling what he wanted even lower.

It wasn't as good as Jackie Chan Adventures.

As Aragaki Yasushi made his decision, the gacha pool updated instantly.

[Points: 500]

[Limited Pool: Smiling Proud Wanderer]

[Permanent Pool: Jackie Chan Adventures]

Aragaki Yasushi stared at the newly appeared limited pool, unable to keep his composure.

Smiling Proud Wanderer?

You've got to be kidding me!

What kind of trick is the system playing?

Why did it update to this piece of junk?

He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down and think it over carefully.

It wasn't that this pool was completely useless; if he could pull martial arts techniques from it, like the Nine Swords of Dugu, it could turn him into a master of taijutsu and swordsmanship, allowing him to reach the pinnacle of skill.

However, the power level was too low.

No matter how powerful the martial arts in Smiling Proud Wanderer were, they were still just the martial arts of mortals.

The cost-effectiveness of pulling from it was too low; it would be a pure waste of points.

Aragaki Yasushi let out a heavy sigh, his face full of helplessness.

Forget it, getting stuck with a trash pool was within my expectations anyway.

At least with the permanent pool there, I can just pull items from Jackie Chan Adventures from it.

Although I don't get the ten-percent-off benefit of a limited pool, it's still better than pulling from this garbage Smiling Proud Wanderer pool.

Besides, Aragaki Yasushi had originally planned to start pulling items from the Jackie Chan Adventures world from the permanent pool after he got the Master Ball.

So, even if the limited pool was trash, it didn't matter.

But then, he suddenly thought of something else.

Since he was pulling from the permanent pool, there was no need to save up for a ten-pull.

Since a ten-pull didn't offer a discount anyway, there was no point in hoarding points; he would just pull as much as he could afford.

Thinking of this, Aragaki Yasushi made his decision.

Gacha! Give me a five-pull!

Give me a talisman!

[Lo Pei's Talisman Strap]

[Section 13 Beam Cannon]

[Large Barrel of Coca-Cola]

[Ninja Mask]

[Large Barrel of Iced Black Tea]

Holy crap! It's a gold pull!

It actually hit gold!

Aragaki Yasushi stared intensely at the items on the panel.

The heavens finally opened their eyes; he actually pulled an Oni Mask.

The quality of this five-pull was just too high.

He even pulled hard-hitting gear like the Ninja Mask.

Aragaki Yasushi couldn't wait to take out the mask, and suddenly, a purplish-red mask appeared in his hands.

It was the Ninja Mask he had been longing for.

This was the mask of General Ninja from the Oni Masks, capable of summoning the Ninja Soldiers of the Shadowkhan.

Isn't this the most useful tool for Shendu?

From now on, I have my own exclusive lackeys!

Among all the Shadowkhan, the Ninja Corps had the most versatile abilities.

Although their individual strength wasn't top-tier, they excelled at using a variety of weapons.

They could handle melee, ranged combat, and reconnaissance, making them perfect for all sorts of odd jobs.

Their utility was absolutely immense!

But as he laughed, Aragaki Yasushi's smile suddenly froze.

He held the Ninja Mask, his brows gradually furrowing, the joy on his face slowly fading as doubts began to stir in his heart.

Wait, that's not right. How am I supposed to summon the Shadowkhan?

He carefully recalled the plot of Jackie Chan Adventures.

Although putting on an Oni Mask allowed one to summon the Ninja Soldiers of the Shadowkhan and comprehensively enhance one's physical fitness, the evil thoughts deep within one's heart would be slowly released by the darkness inside the mask.

In the end, the wearer would gradually become a puppet of the mask, completely replaced by the corresponding General Ninja.

The price was simply too high.

It was equivalent to trading his own life for lackeys; it wasn't worth it at all.

Aragaki Yasushi looked at the mask, his face full of conflict.

That old geezer Shendu controlled the Ninja Corps by absorbing the energy of the Ninja Mask.

But I don't possess that kind of ability. If I put it on directly, wouldn't I be possessed sooner or later?

No, I absolutely cannot take this risk!

He paced back and forth, his brain spinning rapidly, trying to figure out how to utilize the Ninja Mask without being consumed by it.

I've got it! I can try to capture it with a Poke Ball!

Since even Samehada, that living ninja sword, could be captured, maybe this mask could be too.

Thinking of this, Aragaki Yasushi's eyes lit up. He immediately pulled a Poke Ball from his pocket, aimed it at the Ninja Mask in his hand, and threw it with all his might.

"Go, Poke Ball! Capture this mask for me!"

The Poke Ball traced an arc through the air and hit the Ninja Mask with precision. It instantly flared with a dazzling red light, enveloping the mask and beginning to spin rapidly.

Aragaki Yasushi held his breath, staring fixedly at the Poke Ball, his heart filled with anticipation.

But not two seconds later, the Poke Ball popped open with a "snap," the red light vanished instantly, and the Ninja Mask remained lying securely in front of Aragaki Yasushi.

Aragaki Yasushi was stunned on the spot, scratching his head with a look of confusion.

The capture failed?

Why did it fail again?

Is this mask not a living creature?

I remember the Rat Talisman worked on the mask.

That means the mask is an inanimate object.

It's just that it gradually "awakens" once someone puts it on.

Thinking of this, Aragaki Yasushi had no choice but to shrug helplessly.

Oh well, anyway, a Poke Ball only captures; it doesn't provide control. Even if I could catch it, the Shadow Ninjas summoned by it wouldn't listen to me, so it would be a waste of effort.

Aragaki Yasushi picked up the Ninja Mask again.

Since this mask is so useful, I can't just let it go to waste, right?

What other ways are there to solve the problem of the backlash?

Aragaki Yasushi squatted on the ground, deep in thought.

Suddenly, Aragaki Yasushi's eyes lit up, and he stood up abruptly.

I've got it! I can use sealing jutsu!

How could I have forgotten about that?

That's right, the sealing jutsu of the Naruto World can even seal Tailed Beasts and allow one to utilize their chakra.

If I seal this Oni Mask onto my body and utilize the mask's energy, wouldn't I be able to control the Shadow Ninja Corps as well?

The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

If Shendu could use the mask's energy to control the Shadowkhan, why couldn't I do the same if I could harness that energy?

But then, a second thought made Aragaki Yasushi feel a bit uncertain.

Could sealing jutsu actually seal an item like this?

He carefully recalled the original plot, and his mind was instantly put at ease.

Didn't that old schemer Danzo seal an entire bridge before he died?

If a bridge could be sealed, then a tiny mask certainly could be as well.

It seemed he would have to find a way to get his hands on some sealing jutsu.

Whether it meant training with the Konoha Sealing Squad or begging the old geezer Third Hokage for some secret scrolls, he had to master the art of sealing.

Or, he could try learning from Minato Namikaze.

He was also proficient in sealing jutsu, and his wife was Kushina, who hailed from the Uzumaki Clan.

Surely, they must possess a vast collection of texts regarding sealing techniques.

In any case, sealing jutsu was a must-learn.

Otherwise, such a useful Ninja Mask would truly go to waste.
