Finally!
The moment the system notification rang out, Peter's eyes lit up. He could hardly wait to sink his consciousness into the system space.
On the product interface, eight brand-new items lay there quietly. In the upper right corner, the system displayed Peter's current sacrifice value balance: 8,200 points!
Time to splurge!
[Item 1: Cold Jade Bed]
[Source: Jin Yong's Wuxia World]
[Effect: A bed made of extreme northern cold jade. Greatly benefits the Training of internal energy (Neigong). Training while sleeping on it grants a 10x efficiency bonus and prevents "Qi Deviation" (cultivation madness).]
[Price: 500 Points]
Tsk~
Seeing the first item, Peter clicked his tongue. It was a good item, but there was a problem... he didn't have Neigong! While Chakra was similar, it was a product of physical and mental energy extracted for immediate use; it couldn't be stored in the Dantian like Neigong. In the Naruto world, only someone like Tsunade with her Strength of a Hundred Seal could truly store excess Chakra. Plus, with the Horse Talisman, he never had to worry about "Qi Deviation" anyway.
Useless! Peter shook his head and moved to the next.
[Item 2: Byakugan (White Eye)]
[Source: Naruto World]
[Effect: Eyes granting X-ray vision and a near 360° field of view. Visual range increases with the user's strength. Additionally, allows the release of Chakra from all tenketsu (pressure points) in the body.]
[Price: 500 Points]
Now this was good! It was essentially built-in thermal imaging plus super-sight. Moreover, with the Byakugan, he could figure out techniques like the Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm and Rotation (Kaiten), effectively boosting his ranged offense and defense.
Peter didn't hesitate. Purchase!
A cool sensation washed over his eyes. He checked the mirror—the system-grade Byakugan didn't turn his eyes into milky cataracts, nor did veins bulge hideously around his temples when active.
He activated it to test the feel. He felt as if he had a "Transparency" slider in his mind. With a thought, the bedroom walls became ghost-like, letting him see the world outside. He pushed his vision further to test the limit...
At first, he saw Gwen in her room, in the middle of changing clothes.
It was only about 300 meters away, and his vision made everything far too clear.
Peter froze for half a second before quickly pulling his gaze away.
At the same time, Gwen paused, a faint sense of unease passing through her as she instinctively glanced around.
"…That was weird."
Crap. Spider-Sense.
"Yeah… definitely not."
Peter immediately withdrew his vision completely. After taking a moment to steady himself, he refocused and continued testing his visual limits more carefully.
He found his field of view easily covered several blocks, roughly a two-kilometer radius. Interestingly, he spotted Agent Hill nearby, instructing two men—likely the detail assigned to protect Uncle Ben and Auntie May.
He nodded in satisfaction; at least the Braised Egg was staying true to his word.
Confirming the Byakugan was worth every penny, he deactivated it and scrolled down.
[Item 3: SpongeBob's Spatula] ...
[Item 4: Conan's Stun-Gun Watch] ...
[Item 5: Emerald Dragon Scale]
[Source: Adventures of Little Carp]
[Effect: Xiao Meimei's scale. Inlay it on your forehead and sing loudly to confuse enemies and conjure giant waves and whirlpools.]
[Price: 800 Points]
[Item 6: Sakura Card - The Sweet]
[Source: Cardcaptor Sakura]
[Effect: Makes any food taste sweet.]
[Price: 500 Points]
Peter: ???
Are you freaking kidding me?
Looking at these items, Peter's face turned darker. The spatula and watch felt like joke filler. And that Sakura Card... The Sweet? Of all the cards—The Sword, The Windy, The Shield—you give me the one that makes food sugary? You really are a genius, System!
The Emerald Dragon Scale had decent stats, basically a budget version of Namor's Trident, but the activation method was too abstract.
Peter didn't want to be known by other superheroes as "The Diva."
Just as he was about to trash the shop for being full of "stinky fish and rotten shrimp," the last two items appeared, causing his expression to undergo a dramatic, theatrical "Sichuan Face-Change" from disgust to pure joy:
[Item 7: Rokushiki (Six Powers)]
[Source: One Piece]
[Effect: Instantly grants mastery of Soru, Geppo, Rankyaku, Shigan, Tekkai, and Kamie, along with their extensions. Long-term use allows the awakening of Observation and Armament Haki.]
[Price: 3,000 Points]
[Item 8: Stand - Wheel of Fortune (Enhanced Version)]
[Source: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 3]
[Effect: Possesses a vehicle, significantly enhancing its appearance and performance. The vehicle no longer consumes fuel and can self-repair. It can even enter a combat mode. Stand effects evolve with the user's strength!]
[Note: Stand items are not unique; the host can purchase and possess multiple Stands.][Price: 4,000 Points]
Sold!
Without a second thought, Peter bought them both. Although his balance plummeted to a mere 700 points, he felt it was a steal.
Each of the Rokushiki techniques was a game-changer when paired with his super-physique. The prospect of awakening Haki later would save him a fortune in the long run. And that enhanced Wheel of Fortune? That was something truly special.
