A Myriad of Items Make Their Debut

The second stage of the Chunin Exam has finally concluded.

Naruto and his friends have all gathered together, discussing how they passed this assessment.

As expected, they all passed this assessment with surprising ease.

Although they encountered a little danger here and there, they managed to turn peril into safety with the help of items and ninjutsu from the scratch-off ticket shop.

As they were chatting, many ninjas from other villages overheard them and developed a hint of curiosity about the Invincible Scratch-off.

Emerging from the Forest of Death, none of the Konoha 12 went home first. Instead, they all headed to the scratch-off ticket shop together.

Next up is the half-elimination tournament. During this period, they are very likely to encounter extremely strong opponents.

Getting some items from the scratch-off ticket shop first is the key to victory.

In the small shop, Wu Di was busy selling scratch-off tickets.

As the reputation of the scratch-off tickets grew stronger over this period, more and more people began to gather at the shop.

Even Uncle Ichiaku, who was usually stingy, had Ayame bring one thousand ryo to buy some tickets.

Ayame had good luck and directly scratched off a Ramen Replication Bucket.

From now on, when making ramen, as long as one portion of fresh ramen is made in the morning, it can be replicated endlessly.

This way, his costs will also be greatly reduced.

Not long after Ayame left, the Konoha 12 entered the shop one after another.

Wu Di's eyes lit up.

Every time they came, their winning rate was higher than that of other customers.

With them all coming together this time, it was definitely going to bring him a lot of business.

"Welcome, everyone! I presume you all passed the second stage of the exam, right!"

Wu Di said with a laugh.

Naruto adjusted his forehead protector, revealing his pearly white teeth, and said, "Of course! Who do you think we are!"

Wu Di turned around and directly selected twelve one-hundred-ryo scratch-off tickets and presented them.

"I knew you guys would come, so I prepared these for you long ago!"

The Konoha 12 each took out one hundred silver notes.

They had almost all witnessed Wu Di's temper before.

Don't let his current cheerful demeanor fool you; once he gets angry, it's a terrifying thing.

Not too long after, their scratch-off tickets began to emit golden light one after another.

Naruto scratched his open first, and a yo-yo in a bag floated out.

He grabbed it and was about to open it when Wu Di quickly stopped him, saying nervously.

"Whatever you do, don't open this thing inside the shop."

Naruto tilted his head, "Why can't I?"

Wu Di let out a light breath and explained with a smile.

"This thing you have is called the Skunk Sachet Yo-yo."

"Once it's opened, the stench inside will immediately fill the entire room."

Hearing his explanation, everyone looked at Naruto with disgust and shifted away from him, trying to get further away.

Naruto pouted and directly stuffed the yo-yo into his ninja tool pouch.

Just as he finished, something floated out of Rock Lee's scratch-off ticket.

It was a manual with a blue cover.

Wu Di glanced at it and sighed softly.

"You're really lucky, you scratched off the legendary Golden Bell Shield Manual."

"This manual isn't difficult to learn. As long as you put in some effort, you should have a chance to learn it before the second stage of the exam."

"Once you learn it, your body will become tougher than that of an ordinary person."

After explaining, he let out a sigh.

If he had this manual, Rock Lee probably wouldn't have lost as miserably as he did in the original story.

At least, he wouldn't have been half-crippled.

Rock Lee held the manual in both hands, his eyes shining.

Next, Kiba and Neji both received two items simultaneously.

Kiba's item was a clown's nose. Once worn, it could instantly increase his sense of smell a hundredfold.

Furthermore, it could directly capture the opponent's outline through smell.

As for Neji's, it was much simpler, just the most basic Earth Release: Subterranean Voyage.

After burrowing underground, one can move freely beneath the earth.

The only drawback is that Earth Release can only be used on soil. If the ground is rocky, Earth Release won't work!

Next, Sakura's scratch-off ticket revealed a secret manual with a black cover.

Wu Di frowned. Many people had scratched out secret manuals these days, most of them blue or green.

This was the first time he had seen a black cover.

He raised his eyes slightly and gave an awkward smile.

"You scratched out a secret manual."

"Its name is Five Second Man!"

When she first heard the name of this secret manual, Ino suddenly burst into laughter.

"See? Even the scratch-off tickets know you're a man, you big forehead."

Sakura clenched her fists, on the verge of exploding.

Wu Di continued to explain.

"The manual is called Five Second Man, and it's not just for men."

"This manual has one effect: when your chakra is depleted, it will force out the hidden energy within your body."

"In an extraordinary way, it will allow you to continue fighting the enemy for five seconds."

"However, once this manual is used, you will enter a weakened state for the next ten minutes!"

Sakura nodded and carefully put the manual away.

If this happened later in the Chunin Exam, when everyone was severely depleted, those five seconds could be the key to victory.

As soon as she put hers away, Hinata, Choji, Shikamaru, Ino, and Tenten successively scratched out different items.

Hinata scratched out a set of martial arts called Cute Girl Fist.

This fist technique is only effective against men. If a man is hit by this move, his defense will be reduced by one hundred percent.

Choji's was simple: a pair of black sneakers.

The description read: Elderly Athlete's Foot Shoes. Wearing these old man shoes increases movement speed by twenty percent.

Shikamaru scratched out an item of great collectible value: a pair of walnuts that had been kept for eighty years and were now very smooth.

Eating them after cracking them open would instantly boost intelligence.

Ino scratched out a purple scroll containing an illusion technique called Flower Butterfly Illusion.

The target would see endless flowers and butterflies flying around them until they were defeated by the caster.

Tenten scratched out a cannon-shaped item called Human Cannonball.

When a kunai was loaded into it, and the cannon was placed on Tenten's shoulder, it would automatically lock onto a target based on her gaze and fire the kunai.

After they finished, Shino's scratch-off ticket revealed a green, snot-like object.

Wu Di's eyes widened.

"Scratch-off tickets can reveal living things?"

He then explained in a low voice.

"This little thing is a summoned beast from another realm, called Digital Nasal Slime."

"Its ultimate skill is throwing poop."

"Once you summon it, it will quickly split into a large swarm and attack the enemy!"

Shino was very surprised.

He exclaimed in amazement, "I have a summoned beast already?"

He was very excited.

Among the Konoha 12, no one had a summoning beast yet!

"Boss, what's the summoning method?"

Wu Di chuckled softly. "Since it's a summoned beast from another realm, the summoning method is naturally different."

"Before summoning, just shout: 'Nasal Slime, I choose you!' and it will come out on its own."

"Cool!" Shino said excitedly.

Just as he was getting excited, the sound of a screaming chicken suddenly came.

"Ooooooh..."
