"If you are certain." Kanae sighed, "You start hammering the metal out, and I'll have a look over your plans."
"Yes dear." Tatsuhiko said, "They're in my planning office."

Naruto used [Observe] on his new equipment as soon as he finished his lunch.

"Nice…" Naruto whistled, "Wonder what being Mastercrafted does to the blades?"
When he tapped the word, another screen popped up.
[Mastercrafted]
Items that have been [Mastercrafted] have been carved, forged, built or otherwise created by a master craftsman at the peak of their skill. As such, all [Mastercrafted] items receive a bonus towards a random stat.
Do you wish to have all such bonuses shown?
Y/N
"Uh…obviously." Naruto muttered. He hit 'Y' and looked at Sumire and Tsubaki's screens again. Tsubaki received a +10 bonus to Piercing Damage, while Sumire got +15 to Slashing Damage.
Naruto felt a bit giddy. These weapons would make his life so much easier when it came to clearing out Training Ground 13.
"Now then…where am I at…?" he muttered and checked his status.
Name: Uzumaki Naruto
Class: The Gamer
Level: 12 Next Level: 30.84%
Title: Academy Student (+25% EXP to LV10)
Age: 12
HP: 1500/1500
CP: 1500/1500
STR: 39
STA: 44 (+10)
DEX: 30
INT: 30
WIS: 34
LUK: ?
His stats were, pardon the lack of modesty, pretty damn good in his opinion. He had finally gotten rid of the [Malnourished] status, which had added the missing five points to all his physical stats. He had also raised his INT and WIS by quite a bit, which was nice. His weights were on Level 2 now as he had adjusted after the last month and they were no longer a burden at Level 1.
As for his skills…he had trained hard and all of his [Self-Taught] styles were at Level 10, at which point they had hit was his ability classed as a 'Level Cap,' meaning they couldn't go any higher. The same had applied to his [Basic Hakage Taijutsu], but he had solved that problem by absorbing the [Intermediate Hakage Taijutsu] book.
The [Self-Taught] styles were more problematic. Sure, the Bōjutsu wasn't as important, but the Nitō Ryū Tantō style and the Kodachi Kenjutsu style were. Iruka-sensei had said he would have a look in the Shinobi section of the library, but that still meant he couldn't improve them yet.
And graduation was six whole months away!
On a more positive side of things, thanks to the drops made by the Mokujin in Sub-Area 1 and the Ninmenju in Sub-Area 2, he had a healthy stock of bokken, practice dummies and practice spears.
A big downer was that, once he had passed level ten, he no longer received the 25% extra EXP that his [Academy Student] Title had granted him, which made levelling up somewhat tedious.
'Come to think of it, didn't I get a new title earlier on?' Naruto thought with a frown. He opened the titles section and winced, as it was row upon row of question marks. Scrolling down, the boy spotted two titles that he had access to.
- [Academy Student]: Grants 25% extra EXP while under LV10. Signifies the bearer is a student at a Shinobi Academy. Only removable at graduation.
- [Righteous Acolyte]: Increases Ninjutsu power by 1% while possessing more than zero, but less than 100, Righteous Alignment. Signifies that the bearer has taken the first step down a righteous path.
"This sucks ass…" Naruto pouted. He then decided to find out what this 'Alignment' business was all about by checking the guide.
[Alignment and You]
Alignment is your moral and ethical perspective. Basically, if you act in a moral fashion, you can be considered 'lawful' or 'good,' whereas if you act in an amoral fashion, you can be considered 'unlawful' or 'evil.'
Your words and actions influence which Alignment you go down. Unlike in other worlds, you, Uzumaki Naruto, reside in a world where nothing is cut and dried. Morality is very much in flux, especially for Shinobi.
To represent this, there are various different paths of alignment that you can go down simultaneously. Very few paths exclude the ability to travel down others until very far down a path, but there are those that preclude another path immediately.
The various Alignment Paths you discover will be added here as and when you find them, not before.
Righteous - This path has also been known as Paragon, Lawful Good and various other epithets of a similar nature. One who strides down this path is one who will try to do what is right, regardless of the cost to themselves. Current Alignment: 10/1000.
Pragmatic - Known as Neutral or Unaligned in various universes, one who follows this path follows an expedient path. They will act in the most grounded fashion possible, saving only those who they feel can be saved and not trying for more. Current Alignment: 0/1000.
"Huh…" Naruto said with a shrug. He personally didn't think he suited either of those stances completely. He also felt mildly offended that his ability was trying to compartmentalise him.
"Moving on…new skill!" Naruto grinned as he closed the window and grabbed the book regarding weapons care and maintenance.
[You have acquired the [To the Point and Along the Edge] Skill book.]
Do you wish to learn this?
Y/N
"Hell yes!" Naruto grinned as he hit the appropriate button and watched the book dissolve into blue light and enter him.
