"It's done! Shukaku, you're amazing!"
Uchiha Xuan controlled a metal ingot using Magnet Style, making it float mid-air.
At first, his control was shaky—the metal wobbled, barely staying up.
But soon, his precision improved rapidly, and the ingot flew steadily.
More metal objects joined, forming circling chains that whizzed through the air.
The sound of metal slicing through the wind filled the underground training ground.
Shukaku watched in shock.
"H-How is this possible?"
"Not only did you master it instantly, but you're already better than me?!"
"Are you even human?"
Shukaku felt like he was hallucinating.
Uchiha Xuan simply smirked.
"Next is mastering the human body's magnetic field and the Earth's magnetic field."
Closing his eyes, he tried synchronizing his own magnetic field with the planet's.
A faint energy ripple spread from his body.
Slowly, his feet lifted off the ground.
Ten minutes later—Uchiha Xuan was flying freely, executing precise aerial maneuvers.
Shukaku was stunned into silence.
"...I must have woken up wrong today."
He rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
This wasn't normal.
Not only had Uchiha Xuan learned Magnet Style instantly, but his control was now better than Shukaku's own mastery.
What kind of monster was he?
"I Can't Take This Anymore!"
Shukaku sighed in defeat.
"Boss… anything else you want me to teach you?"
If he had to stay here watching this freak improve any longer, he'd go insane.
Uchiha Xuan grinned.
"Of course! Since you're here… tell me about the sealing techniques you know."
"Sealing?"
Shukaku's ears perked up.
"No problem! Actually, my sealing techniques are closely tied to my Magnet Style."
"In my opinion, seals work by altering magnetic fields—every sealing technique is just an application of magnetism."
Uchiha Xuan's eyes lit up.
"Interesting. Keep going."
For the next few hours, Shukaku explained his theory and demonstrated various sealing techniques.
[You have learned: Sandstorm Seal]
[You have learned: Great Desert Burial Seal]
After learning eight or nine sealing techniques, Uchiha Xuan grinned.
"That's it?"
Shukaku spread his hands helplessly.
"Yeah, that's all I got. I don't need more than that."
"Hmm…"
Uchiha Xuan sighed dramatically.
"So even tailed beasts have limits when it comes to creativity."
"Guess I'll have to surpass you in sealing techniques too."
Shukaku: "…!"
Did this guy ever stop trying to surpass people?!
"Wait… 9 Million?!"
Uchiha Xuan waved his hand, and a huge pile of money appeared in front of Shukaku.
Shukaku froze.
"Wait, wait, WAIT! You said 100,000! Why is there 9.1 million?"
"Simple," Uchiha Xuan smirked.
"The extra 9 million is payment for the sealing techniques you taught me—1 million per technique."
"If you create new sealing techniques, I'll pay you 1 million per technique. Sound good?"
Shukaku's eyes widened.
"DEAL!"
He grabbed the money in one gulp, sealing it inside his body.
Uchiha Xuan's eyes gleamed.
"Wait a second—how did you do that?"
Shukaku tilted his head.
"Do what?"
"The way you stored the money just now. That wasn't a sealing technique, was it?"
Shukaku shook his head.
"Nope! That's one of my innate abilities—I have a storage space inside my body. It's linked to my soul, not my stomach."
Uchiha Xuan's eyes flashed with excitement.
"A storage space inside your body… tied to your soul?"
Shukaku nodded proudly.
"Yup! Pretty cool, huh?"
Uchiha Xuan leaned forward.
"Shukaku… I'll give you 10 million if you let me study your storage space."
Shukaku froze mid-step.
"Wait, what?"
"10 million. Let me study it."
Shukaku's eyes sparkled.
"DEAL! Study me all you want!"
Five Months Later…
Shukaku was losing his mind.
He thought this study would last a few days.
Instead, it dragged on for five months.
For five months—he had been poked, scanned, and analyzed in Uchiha Xuan's lab.
He missed his snacks.
He missed his manga.
He missed his freedom.
Finally, after five months—
[You have deeply analyzed Shukaku's storage space, combining it with sealing techniques and space manipulation. You have developed the Storage Space Refinement Method.]
[Storage Space Refinement Method]: Allows the creation of storage items by refining materials with spatial properties.
Uchiha Xuan grinned in triumph.
"It's done!"
Shukaku nearly cried.
"So… I can go now?!"
Uchiha Xuan nodded.
"You're free."
"Also, here's your 10 million."
WHOOSH!
Before the money even hit the ground, Shukaku grabbed it and vanished.
By the time Uchiha Xuan blinked, the little tanuki was gone.
"That guy escaped like his life depended on it…"
Uchiha Xuan chuckled.
"Alright. Time to put this new knowledge to use."
Creating Storage Equipment
"The first thing I need is space-infused materials."
He glanced at a large block of chakra metal he had taken from Danzo's Root headquarters.
"This should work…"
Using thunder and fire refining arrays, he shaped the metal into a silver bracelet.
Next, he engraved it with a complex sealing formula.
The spatial storage expanded until it reached its limit.
When it was done—he sensed the available space.
"About 30 cubic meters? Not bad."
"But I'd rather have a storage ring than a bracelet…"
He frowned.
"If I want a smaller object to hold more space, I'll need better materials."
Shrugging, he continued refining.
Five days later…
He had created:
20 Storage Bracelets (30 cubic meters)
10 Storage Necklaces (20 cubic meters)
10 Storage Charms (20 cubic meters)
Uchiha Xuan took a necklace and charm for himself.
The rest?
He distributed them to Kushina, Rena, Tsunade, Mikoto, and his family.
"THIS IS AMAZING!"
At Kushina's house—
Tsunade and Kushina gasped in excitement.
"YOU MADE PERMANENT STORAGE ITEMS?!"
Kushina grinned.
"How do we use them?"
Uchiha Xuan smirked.
"Just imprint your mental energy into it."
Kushina tried it—her cup vanished into thin air.
Then she summoned it back instantly.
Her eyes sparkled.
"THIS. IS. AWESOME!"
Tsunade laughed.
"Uchiha Xuan, you're truly a monster of a genius."
Uchiha Xuan just smiled.
"Well… I do try my best."
