NARUTO: GOD LEVEL FORGING SYSTEM

"No, no, it's too expensive."

"Aren't we friends? You lend us a training ground, and I'll give you a small gift." Kazuki said with a hearty smile. "My family runs a weapons shop in Konoha, and this ninja tool is nothing for us."

Tenten nodded eagerly. "Yes, just accept it! I really appreciate your help today."

"Thank you, thank you!"

Rock Lee, who accepted the ninja kit, felt his eyes welling up with tears. He was deeply moved.

So this is friendship?

This is truly wonderful!

I finally have friends!

__

A month passed quietly.

After school each day, Kazuki and Tenten would head to Konoha's training grounds to train alongside Rock Lee, focusing on taijutsu and shuriken techniques.

During this time, Kazuki's skills advanced rapidly. His kunai accuracy improved significantly, and he could now hit targets with much greater precision.

He was pleased with his progress.

Just another week…

He estimated that soon, he would be able to master the kunai throwing technique, landing every strike with flawless accuracy.

At that moment, a familiar voice echoed in his mind—

Ding! Mission Release: Sell any kunai (Clone Kunai, Substitution Kunai, Transformed Kunai), and the price must not be less than 1,000 ryō.

System Reward: Primary Kusanagi Sword Blueprint!

Another mission?

But he hadn't even completed the previous one yet.

Would the old task disappear once this new one was posted?

Kazuki's heart tensed. The storage space in his ring was invaluable right now.

He quickly opened his system panel.

The previous mission was still there, listed as "To Be Completed." He let out a sigh of relief.

Good.

The system allowed him to take on multiple missions without them vanishing.

Now, he turned his attention to the newly assigned task.

His brows furrowed.

Sell ninja tools?

Kazuki had never considered selling his custom-made weapons before.

His family wasn't in need of money, and revealing these specialized tools too soon might bring unwanted attention.

He remained cautious.

Aside from his sister Tenten, he had never even shown Rock Lee—his closest friend—the ninja tools he had personally crafted.

This made the blueprint for the Creation Ring all the more valuable to him.

If he could obtain it, he could store and conceal his weapons more effectively.

However…

To complete this mission, he would need to find the right opportunity to sell a kunai.

The primary Kusanagi Sword…

Its allure was undeniable.

It was one of the most revered weapons in the shinobi world, ranking just below legendary blades like Samehada and Kubikiribōchō.

But he couldn't rush this.

For now, he would set aside the system's task and continue perfecting his shuriken techniques.

---

One week later, at Konoha's training ground—

Kazuki simultaneously threw six kunai, each aimed at different targets.

Shh! Shh! Shh!

Thud! Thud! Thud!

"All on target!" Tenten shouted excitedly. "Brother, that was amazing!"

Kazuki's mouth curled into a satisfied smile.

After a month of relentless training under the scorching sun, dodging kunai barrages and perfecting his chakra control, he had finally done it!

[Ding! Mission completed!

System Reward: The blueprint for forging the Primary Ring has been distributed!]

"Kazuki's progress is incredible!"

Rock Lee watched Kazuki, who was now executing perfect mid-air shuriken throws with the precision of an Uchiha, his technique refined to the point where even a veteran jonin would nod in approval. A flicker of envy flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by determination.

In his dark eyes, a strong fire of fighting spirit ignited, much like Rock Lee when he first witnessed Neji's mastery of the Gentle Fist.

He clenched his fists, sprang up from the ground, and shouted:

"Yosh! If Kazuki-kun can work this hard, then so can I!"

"I'm going to double my training today! One thousand jump ropes! If I fail, I'll do two thousand push-ups… No, I'll do them on one hand, just like Guy-sensei!"

Clap! Clap! Clap!

Suddenly, a round of enthusiastic applause echoed through the training field.

At the same time, a deep, powerful voice called out from a distance:

"Yo!"

"Not bad, boy!"

"Struggle! Work hard! This is the essence of youth!"

Rock Lee froze. His heart pounded as he whipped his head around.

"Who's there?"

A gust of wind swept past him, kicking up leaves as if a typhoon had hit.

Then, with the weight of sheer presence alone, a man in a tight green jumpsuit and orange leg warmers landed beside them. His perfectly bowl-cut hair and thick eyebrows were unmistakable.

Kazuki and Tenten, who had been sharpening their shuriken skills nearby, halted their training and turned toward the voice.

Kazuki recognized the man immediately—there was no mistaking that energy.

It was none other than the Blue Beast of Konoha himself—Might Guy!

"Hahaha! You have passion, boy!"

Might Guy laughed heartily, slapping Rock Lee's shoulder so hard that he nearly stumbled. His eyes radiated admiration, gleaming with the burning spirit of youthful determination.

"As long as you keep working hard, one day, you will surpass your limits and become an outstanding ninja!"

Rock Lee's eyes widened. "R-Really?!?"

Might Guy nodded firmly. "Of course! Come, let's train together!"

Rock Lee's blood boiled with excitement. "Yes! Let's do it, Guy-sensei!"

At that moment, a calm, almost indifferent voice interrupted.

"Senior, if you wanted to use the training ground, you could've just said so. No need to lure juniors in with motivational speeches, right?"

Kazuki had already approached, arms crossed over his chest, an amused smirk playing on his lips.

"Huh? Kazuki, what do you mean?" Rock Lee blinked in confusion.

Might Guy, caught red-handed, rubbed the back of his head awkwardly.

"Ah… well… you see… all the training grounds are occupied today. I saw yours had some space…"

"Oh! If you need it, we can—"

"Wait a second!"

Kazuki cut Rock Lee off with a sharp glance before turning back to Might Guy with a knowing smile.

"We'll give you part of the training ground, but in exchange—how about you personally train us?"

After all, Might Guy was no ordinary ninja. He was the man who had fought the Six Paths of Pain alongside Kakashi, the shinobi who had opened the Eighth Gate against Madara Uchiha himself.

Kazuki knew that if they trained under him, their progress would soar beyond their limits.
