Naruto:Shockwave of Change

After a long day of conspiracies, revelations, and political shifts, Sal finally returned home. He threw himself into his chair with a heavy sigh, feeling the weight of the massive changes that had occurred in the village.

"ANBU leader… I never imagined I'd get this far so quickly."

But there was no time to relax. An urgent knock echoed at the door.

— "Chief Sal!" — An anxious voice called from the other side.

He opened the door to find an ANBU messenger.

— "Danzo has escaped!"

Sal's eyes narrowed.

— "How?"

— "He used the Mangekyō Sharingan! No one knew he had it! He used an ability to make the guards see him as an ally and escaped, taking most of the Root personnel with him."

Sal cursed internally.

"That damn old man… Mangekyō? I never considered that Danzo already had one. But where did he get it from?"

— "The Hokage has ordered you to lead the hunt. We want Danzo alive… but if that's impossible, eliminate him."

Sal nodded.

— "Understood. Gather a tracking squad. We leave in 30 minutes."

But before leaving…

"It's time to test my luck. Maybe this will make the mission easier."

Sal opened the Change System interface and decided to spend everything he had on five Epic Chests. Each one cost 10,000 points, and after his last achievement, he had exactly 50,000.

"If I'm going to spend, I might as well go big. Bring me something good, system!"

As soon as he confirmed the purchase, the chests shone before him and began to open one by one.

First Chest:

> Demon-Slayer Sword – System-Modified (Anti-Chakra)

A massive black blade appeared in his hands. Its weight was surprisingly balanced despite its enormous size.

"Wait… this sword…!"

Recognition hit instantly.

"It's Asta's Demon-Slayer Sword from Black Clover! But… the system modified it to be anti-chakra instead of anti-magic?"

He swung the blade in the air, feeling the unique energy it emitted.

"This is perfect against ninjutsu users… and I just handed over the Kusanagi to Orochimaru. And now I get an even better sword? The system really knows how to balance things."

Sal smirked. Danzo was about to suffer.

Second Chest:

> Armament Haki – Transformed into an A-Rank Jutsu (Hardening)

A surge of energy ran through his body, and for a moment, Sal felt his skin harden like steel. He lightly punched the wall… and a small dent formed.

"So Haki became an A-rank jutsu… This solves my biggest problem."

Until now, he had incredible speed and precision, but his durability was lacking. Now, with this new defense, he could withstand much stronger attacks without relying solely on dodging.

"Perfect. Now I have what I was missing—a solid defensive technique."

Third Chest:

> Sōma Yukihira's Cooking Skills

Sal blinked a few times, confused.

"Cooking? Seriously? In the middle of all this?"

He sighed but then gave a small smile.

"Well… at least now I can make incredible meals. Not useful in battle, but great for daily life."

He could already picture Tsunade and Kaito's reactions when they tasted his new dishes.

"This will be fun."

Fourth Chest:

> Spaceship Project

Sal stared at the holographic blueprints that appeared before his eyes.

— "A… spaceship?"

The details were intricate, filled with schematics far beyond the technology of the current ninja world.

"This is definitely useless right now… but what about in the future?"

If one day Konoha had to deal with the Ōtsutsuki directly, traveling beyond the planet might become necessary.

"This… could be very useful. At the right time."

He carefully stored the blueprints.

Fifth Chest:

> Emperor's Eyes – Akashi's Ability (Kuroko no Basket)

A new power awakened within him. His vision became sharper, as if every detail around him had become clearer.

"These eyes… they predict the enemy's movements, right?"

Sal closed his eyes and reopened them. The sense of control was overwhelming.

"If I can anticipate Danzo's moves before he even attacks, the fight is already won."

The Emperor's Eyes were more than just a prediction ability. They imposed psychological dominance over the opponent, making them feel inferior in combat.

"This… is very good."

When Sal left his house, his points were back to zero.

He had spent everything. But it was worth it.

Now, with his new sword, his enhanced endurance, and his absurd combat perception, he was strong enough to fight a weak Kage like the Fourth Kazekage of the Sand Village.

Sal found his ANBU squad waiting for him.

— "Trackers, move ahead. Spread out and look for any sign of Danzo. Do not let him escape the Land of Fire."

The ANBU ninjas vanished in an instant.

Sal looked at the horizon and smirked slightly.
