Chapter 514 - Chapter 513: The Firework Cannons and the Ring

Hearing Torifu's few words, Naori knew that he didn't care too much about the gender of the child. Naori, the little princess of the Uchiha Clan, had been well-fed and clothed since childhood and hadn't been affected by any male chauvinistic ideas. Naturally, she wasn't overly concerned about boys or girls. However, Naori actually still wanted a boy. But perhaps this was all a bit premature; they had only been married for one day.

Unconsciously, Torifu and Naori had already returned to the Kumotsuru compound. The mundane topics they discussed on the way naturally vanished into thin air once they got home.

"Oh, Torifu and Naori are back! You two were barely home all morning, truly busy!" Snowflake stood on an unknown old tree in the courtyard and said to the couple who had just entered.

Torifu greeted her. "No choice. You know Konoha has many guests, and I need to attend to them." Afterward, Torifu stretched and felt some of his fatigue disappear. "I hope Minato grows up quickly, so he can take over my Hokage position." Naori had always thought Torifu was just saying that, but today she sensed from his words that Torifu was genuinely planning to let Minato inherit the Hokage role. Although it wasn't impossible, Minato currently didn't have anything special besides his high cultivation talent. He hadn't even mastered the Flying Thunder God technique yet, so why was Torifu so optimistic about Minato? However, Naori only pondered this to herself and didn't mention it to Torifu. Besides, if Minato overheard it, it might seem like she, the older sister-in-law, was looking down on him. She didn't want to get a bad reputation. Perhaps Torifu had his own ideas, and Naori decided not to ask.

"I was wondering, Torifu, I've already married into the family, so continuously wearing Uchiha Clan clothes isn't really appropriate anymore." Torifu, who was resting in the pavilion, slapped his forehead. "Ah! I completely forgot about that!"

Saying that, Torifu led Naori to the Kumotsuru Clan's vault. Pushing open the door, the entire vault was stacked with robes. There were robes passed down from their ancestors, and also new styles that Torifu had specially commissioned from Madam Beni, which were the kind he was currently wearing. He casually found a few pieces of the female style and handed them to Naori, which seemed to fit her size. The clothes looked quite beautiful on the outside, adorned with various green plants matched with crane patterns. This embroidery pattern would look good on any clothing. Their ancestors truly had impeccable taste.

While Naori was happily changing, Torifu opened the system store. He was completely unconcerned about Peace Points now. The entire Ninja World was playing Naruto, and all the money charged was increasing Torifu's Peace Points. His Peace Points were now in the tens of millions. However, the items in the system store consumed very little Peace Points. There hadn't been any special items or items that could increase his strength for a long time. Therefore, Torifu visited the system store less frequently. Coupled with the fact that Torifu's current strength was difficult to improve through the system store, he naturally neglected the store.

However, for the wedding, Torifu had swiped a lot of items from the store to buy some head ornaments for Naori. He had also ended up with a pile of interesting things. For example, the space ring Torifu received years ago—after so many years, he finally obtained a second one. But he hadn't had a chance to give it to Naori yet. This ring was plain on the outside and couldn't compare to the wedding ring at all. Otherwise, Torifu would have used it as the wedding ring. The internal space was also quite small, only about a hundred cubic meters. It couldn't compare to Torifu's infinite space ring. Most of what was piled up inside Torifu's current ring was money and treasure, which was the Kumotsuru Clan's foundation, kept for future generations.

In addition to this ring for Naori, Torifu also found a rather fun item in the store: [Firework Cannon: Injecting Chakra once can release fireworks that last for half an hour.] (More Chakra means a longer duration.)

The Ninja World didn't have fireworks yet, and they weren't an essential item. If it weren't for swiping this item yesterday, Torifu wouldn't have thought of it. Because other than romance, fireworks were truly useless. And now, what Torifu lacked most was romance. At ten thousand Peace Points per Chakra Cannon, it wasn't expensive. He could buy a maximum of five. It wasn't a single-use item; it could be used long-term, and there was no need to worry about damage. It was an interesting item; they could use it to celebrate holidays in the future. And tonight, Torifu planned to take Naori to watch a fireworks display—the first fireworks display in the Ninja World.

Without thinking twice, Torifu spent fifty thousand Peace Points to purchase the fireworks. Following that, five cannon-like tubes, similar to mortars, appeared in front of Torifu. The tubes were about the thickness of a thermos flask, and the muzzles were pointed straight toward the sky. Torifu naturally trusted the quality of system-made products, so he didn't test them. The main reason was that he wanted to give Naori a surprise. Torifu waved his hand, collecting the five firework cannons into his space ring.

Then, he heard a voice from behind: "Torifu, how do I look now?"

Torifu turned around and saw Naori standing at the vault door, wearing a simple, long robe with the crane pattern. She was also wearing a jade crown similar to Torifu's on her head. Her deep purple hair paired with the plain robe created a slight contrast, but Torifu thought she looked quite good.

"You look wonderful! I didn't expect this robe to suit you so well."

Naori's face blushed from the compliment. "Really? I think it looks great too."

This was her first time wearing Kumotsuru Clan attire. Although Naori and Torifu had been a couple before, they weren't officially family. Naori had been too embarrassed to ask for Kumotsuru Clan clothes to wear. But now, she was the Matriarch of the Kumotsuru Clan! Even though the clan, strictly speaking, only consisted of her and Torifu... she was still the Matriarch of a clan, wasn't she?

"I saw you tinkering with something outside just now. It vanished in an instant. It looked like a few thermos flasks."

Torifu smiled and waved his hand. "It's nothing; don't worry about it." He then gave Naori the space ring he had bought from the system store. Naori was a little surprised when she saw it. "Why are you giving me another ring? This is the third one now."

"This one is different. Try injecting some Chakra into it."

Naori put the ring on her hand, half-believing, and then injected a wisp of Chakra from her body into the ring. The ordinary-looking ring suddenly emitted a gentle, shimmering glow—a sign that it had accepted its master.
