The Reward distribution session continued, filled with an atmosphere of anticipation and deep calculation from every Savior who had completed the Quest.
Gaia and Alaya listened to each request submitted.
Next was Kazuya. Unexpectedly, he requested the Fountain of Youth from the Nanatsu no Taizai series.
The Fountain of Youth was a legendary sacred treasure of the Fairy Clan, granting the gift of eternal life to anyone who drank its water.
Unlike the degraded immortality Charlie got from eating Mermaid flesh—which only provided eternal youth and longevity, but he could still die if killed—the immortality from the Fountain of Youth was far superior. It was equipped with extraordinary body regeneration abilities, capable of healing severe wounds even fatal ones.
Even Kazuya, who uses a genius protagonist template character like Tsukiguni Yoriichi, repeatedly finds himself on the verge of death.
He didn't want to die too early after getting a second life opportunity in this new world, so immortality became his dream.
The turn shifted to Miguel. He submitted his request: Todo Aoi's Cursed Technique Boogie Woogie from the Jujutsu Kaisen series, of course in a modified version not bound to the Curse Energy mechanism.
The Boogie Woogie ability allowed the user to swap positions with other people or objects just by using a clap as a trigger. Its flexibility was high; the user could not only swap their position with a target, but could also swap the positions of two targets outside themselves.
According to him, Boogie Woogie was similar to Amenotejikara, Uchiha Sasuke's Rinnegan Eye Technique—both manipulated space and position in ways that disrupted opponent defenses.
The next person to step forward was Claire. She requested mastery of Hiraishin no Jutsu in the style of the Fourth Hokage from the Naruto world.
Claire had considered many teleportation ability options. Compared to similar abilities from other worlds, she judged Hiraishin no Jutsu to be very practical and efficient for tactical needs.
The only prerequisite for Hiraishin no Jutsu was having to leave a mark first at the destination location. However, once that mark existed, its teleportation activation was almost instant, requiring only one thought to move, making it an invaluable method of attack, rescue, or strategic movement.
Finally, it was the turn of this story's protagonist, Charlie. All eyes turned to him. With a calm yet confident voice, he revealed his choice:
"What I'm requesting is... Hundred Gauntlet belonging to Ajimu Najimi from the Medaka Box series."
Hearing that, Gaia's eyes sparkled, a thin smile floating on her beautiful face.
"Oh, an interesting choice. If Sun Authority Leo operates on a multiverse scale, then this Hundred Gauntlets navigates a more fundamental realm: the conceptual scale. Charlie, you really know how to choose the best~"
Ajimu Najimi was the strongest entity in the Medaka Box series.
Don't be deceived by her appearance like an ordinary high school girl; she was a being who had lived for 3,402,193,822,311 years!
For comparison, the age of the known universe was estimated at only about 13.8 billion years. This meant Ajimu's age was roughly 246.5 times older than the universe itself.
Meanwhile, the gods in the Danmachi Planar World who had lived for hundreds of millions of years still felt very "young" before her.
In the Medaka Box Planar World, the power system was called Minus and Abnormality. In short, a kind of superpower.
Ajimu didn't have one particular Abnormality or Minus. Instead, she had countless numbers of Abnormalities and Minuses, 7,932,135,441,523,222 Abnormalities and 4,925,916,526,110,643 Minuses, so the total became 12,858,051,967,633,865 skills.
Hundred Gauntlets was one of Ajimu's skills among her many skills.
After a brief exchange of glances and telepathic discussion with Alaya, Gaia then looked at Charlie.
"The ability to reverse causal relationships, huh... Hmm... Technically, Hundred Gauntlets isn't a direct attack or defense tool. Its potential and limitations entirely depend on the user's creativity and flexibility. Alright, we grant your request."
*BUZZ!*
A wave of energy that was subtle yet tremendously powerful enveloped Charlie as Hundred Gauntlets integrated into him. He felt a new, very complex and profound understanding flowing into his mind, like a key opening a door to infinity.
(Excellent! With Hundred Gauntlets, I'm like getting multiple skills at once! Just as Gaia said, everything depends on how I use it! This is an invaluable asset for my future plans.)
Clenching his fist under the table, Charlie hid his satisfied smile. One of the most overpowered cheat abilities he had ever read about was now in his grasp.
Medaka Box was indeed an underrated anime. The proof was, the other eight Saviors only showed slight surprise reactions when Gaia mentioned that Hundred Gauntlets was a causality manipulation ability. But that was all.
Their expressions were more curious than amazed—apparently they didn't fully understand how absurd and OP the ability Charlie chose was.
No one asked further, no one raised issues about "abilities that violate the laws of logic" as they did when discussing Sun Authority Leo earlier.
Charlie also had no intention of showing off or explaining in more detail. Let it be his hidden ace card. Quietly, he watched his colleagues one by one state their Rewards.
His gaze shifted to the man to his left.
Wang Jian submitted his request: "I request the Passport of Satan from the Doraemon series."
Several eyebrows furrowed hearing the unusual choice from that children's comedy anime.
Its function was simple yet extraordinary, namely when shown to others, the Passport of Satan would instantly hypnotize them, making them ignore or even support all mistakes and violations committed by the user. The effect didn't apply to the user himself, so he could still act with full awareness.
With this gadget, Wang Jian no longer needed to go through complicated and suspicion-filled procedures to bring Fujiwara Moeha and Koyasu Tsubame—both of whom were pregnant—to Konoha.
The Passport of Satan would also pave the way for him to, openly, copy all the secret ninjutsu stored in the Sealed Scroll in front of the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was famous for his corrupt governance.
Imagine, standing in the forbidden archive room, copying forbidden ninjutsu in the Sealed Scroll, while the ANBU and the Hokage himself only watched with approving nods.
Gaia granted the request, but with an important disclaimer:
"The Passport of Satan will only be effective against individuals with Kage-level strength or below. For entities at Super Kage level, such as Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara in their glory days, the Passport of Satan will have no effect."
Wang Jian nodded, accepting that limitation with open arms. His face showed no disappointment.
"Fair enough."
After all, in the Konoha era where he lived, there wasn't a single ninja who truly reached Super Kage level.
Before Naruto and Sasuke reached Quasi Six Paths level in the still-distant future, the Passport of Satan remained the strongest and most indisputable genjutsu, even surpassing Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyo Sharingan Eye Technique, Kotoamatsukami, which required decades to recharge.
His Passport of Satan could be used repeatedly, as long as the target was within the specified power limitations. That was more than enough to carry out all his plans in Konoha smoothly.
With satisfaction hidden behind his usual facial expression, Wang Jian received the glowing red Passport of Satan with a devil's picture.
