When it came to custom Ninja Tools, the first place that came to mind was Tenten's shop. Naruto wandered around for a while before finally finding it.
Fortunately, Tenten herself was behind the counter at that moment. She was sitting with her hands propping up her chin, looking bored.
"Welcome!"
Tenten habitually called out as Naruto entered, but her eyes suddenly lit up when she looked up.
What a handsome young man!
"What do you need? We have almost all the commonly used Ninja Tools in stock, and we're having a special discount promotion today."
Tenten actually had a bit of a ditz side. After being attracted by Naruto's sunny, cheerful, and somewhat mysterious aura, she immediately dashed out from behind the counter to get a closer look at him.
"A discount promotion?" Naruto blinked, glancing around, a bit puzzled. "I don't see any signs advertising a sale."
He was thinking that if you wanted to attract customers with a discount, you'd at least put up a sign.
However, Tenten was holding her cheeks in her hands, her face flushed, her eyes dreamy. "Ah~! Actually, I just thought of it, and it's only a discount for you, so of course, there's no sign."
Naruto's lips twitched as he finally noticed Tenten's expression.
In the original story, she only showed a spark of interest when she first saw Sasuke, but she didn't do anything out of line. What's going on now?
Could it be that his current aura and image had surpassed Second Seat's?
Naruto stroked his chin, thinking he should do an experiment.
"Miss, you're really interesting, and looking closely, you're also cute. I really like your hairstyle and this outfit," Naruto said with a slight smirk, casually flirting.
"Huh? Really?" Tenten's face lit up with joy, a blush creeping up her cheeks. "I thought I wasn't the type that boys liked."
"No way! If it wasn't too forward, I'd ask you to be my girlfriend." Naruto had somehow already taken hold of Tenten's hands, gazing at her with deep affection.
Tenten's entire face turned red at an alarming rate, and she stammered, "This… isn't this a bit fast?"
"Love always comes unexpectedly, but if you don't seize the moment, you'll definitely regret it later." Naruto delivered the cheesy lines with a practiced ease.
But for a girl who had never encountered such sweet talk before, it was like a highly addictive poison.
Tenten's head was completely in a daze; she didn't even know what she was doing.
The only thing she could be sure of was that she did indeed have feelings for Naruto, was attracted to his aura, and loved hearing these words from him.
And Tenten agreed with Naruto; if she didn't seize the opportunity now, she would definitely regret it later.
So when Naruto kissed her, Tenten didn't resist, and even seemed to reciprocate.
But when Naruto was about to push his luck, she suddenly snapped out of it and put some distance between them.
"I... I'm sorry, I think this is too fast."
Tenten's face was flushed, and her eyes were fixed on the ground as she stammered, "Let's... let's talk about what Ninja Tools you want to buy."
"Sorry, I couldn't help myself," Naruto thought regretfully, that she'd recovered so quickly.
He didn't think he could get Tenten right now, but at least he wanted to get a good look at her figure first.
But as they say, there's always tomorrow.
After that, the two exchanged names, and Naruto told Tenten about his requirements.
Actually, the standard is still the ordinary Kunai and Shuriken, but they need to be made with more durable and expensive metal.
After all, he doesn't plan to be like Minato Namikaze, relying on the Flying Thunder God Technique to solve everything.
On the surface, they're ordinary Shuriken, but when thrown, they become Flying Thunder God Technique coordinates, which is what allows them to catch people off guard.
"In fact, Ninja Tools are often single-use. You don't have time to retrieve them when fighting enemies, which is why the quality of Ninja Tools is relatively poor."
"You can also use XX metal to make them, but it's a bit wasteful. Of course, if you insist, you can come and pick up the goods in three days."
Tenten, although she rejected Naruto's further advances, still maintained a favorable impression of him, and of course, she would consider practicality for him.
"Just customize them as I said. I have other considerations." Naruto made the decision, and then looked at Tenten and praised, "Tenten is indeed very cute, truly never tiring of her."
"Oh dear, stop praising me." Tenten immediately covered her face.
It was a shame that Tenten was no longer in her infatuated state. She still got shy and happy, but she kept a good distance from Naruto.
After chatting with Tenten for a few more minutes, he learned she was going on a mission in half an hour, so Naruto didn't stay long.
"Money really doesn't last long!"
Exiting the Ninja Tool shop, Naruto looked at his significantly lighter wallet and sighed slightly.
He had only ordered five Kunai and twenty Shuriken. Because the special materials were expensive, even with Tenten's 20% discount, plus an Exploding Tag and some ordinary Ninja Tools like Smoke Bombs, it still cost him over four thousand Ryo.
The six thousand Ryo the Third Hokage had given him would be gone after he bought some household goods and ingredients for the house.
"Right, how could I forget the money pouch specifically for transmigrators," Naruto suddenly slapped his forehead.
How could a transmigrator be troubled by money?
Killing bandits is too troublesome. I should just go for something big.
I've decided. Once I'm done here, I'm heading to the Land of Waves!
Konoha's Utatane Department Store.
A gorgeously dressed Blonde Girl, with impressive assets, was buying a lot of things, which startled the shop owner, Haru.
"You look new around here," Haru said with a lecherous look, his eyes fixed on her chest.
However, Blonde Girl didn't seem to mind and instead swayed her body, making her assets even more prominent, causing every man nearby to gawk.
"I just moved here recently. My house doesn't have much stuff, so I came here because I heard the Utatane Department Store has everything," Blonde Girl said in a sweet, seductive voice that made anyone's bones tingle.
Haru shivered, as if tens of thousands of ants were crawling all over him, making him scratch at himself for a long time.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Haru said with a lecherous grin, fawningly, "Anything you need, we have it at the Utatane Department Store. Even if we don't have it, as long as you, miss, ask, I'll search the entire ninja world to find it for you."
Well, as the clan head of the Utatane Clan and the son of advisor Utatane Koharu, Haru wouldn't come running just because someone bought a lot of things.
Actually, this guy was just a playboy.
Any woman with even a little bit of looks who came to his store would be harassed by him.
His lecherous appearance was just like how the Third Hokage looked when he looked at his crystal ball.
No, they were practically cut from the same mold, even their appearances were seven or eight parts similar.
