Chapter 11: Chapter 11 Gacha
Although Yuto kept the shop open, very few customers came in.
Moreover, this area was a civilian district, quite a distance from where the Ninja Clans lived.
So, most of the people who wandered in were just ordinary civilians.
Occasionally, one or two Ninja would come by, but they were all low-profile and unknown...
When they heard that a single phone cost 100,000 Ryo, they turned around and left without a second thought.
As for the civilians, who couldn't afford such a large expense in the first place...
So the few days since opening, Yuto had only sold one phone… to Kakashi.
But that was fine. In his previous life, Yuto had been a trainee planner, but he had managed to join a top-tier studio that created Motou Village, which spoke to his abilities.
He also knew that since he had already dangled the rewards and the 'spoiler' function, he wasn't worried about lacking customers.
In fact, from the start, Yuto's target had been those who could afford to spend.
However, this wasn't a long-term solution. To expand his influence and earn more money, he needed to lower the entry barrier.
However, that was a problem for later. For now, his priority was to earn more Ryo.
In the short term, the 2,000 resource quota and 200,000 Ryo Kakashi had contributed were enough for Yuto to develop the next volume.

"2-4, done..."
Yuto stretched, feeling the stiffness in his back from sitting on the hard shop stool for too long.
However, the progress over the past few days had been rapid. He had already reached level 2-4.
At this point, he suddenly remembered that the system had a 'gacha' feature.
However, it cost 10,000 Ryo per pull, a ridiculous amount that Yuto hadn't considered before.
But now, with the 200,000 Ryo Kakashi had just handed over, he couldn't help but feel tempted.
The resource quota increased whenever he earned Ryo, without needing to spend it, so the only thing that consumed Ryo was... the gacha!
When he first got his hands on a lot of money, Yuto had thought about trying the gacha.
But at the time, he had suppressed the idea.
'One pull costs 10,000 Ryo!'
'That was enough for Tsunade to gamble a few times, or for Jiraiya to have a good time at a certain kind of establishment, or for Orochimaru to... maybe trade for some illegal materials.'
'Wait, why was I always thinking about the Sannin?'
In any case, 10,000 Ryo was no small amount in the Ninja World. It could feed a family of three for a month!
Even for a Chunin, it was a significant sum.
For a Chunin who didn't go on missions often, like an Academy's teacher, it was over half a month's salary.
However, for an ordinary Jonin, or even a Special Jonin, this amount wasn't a big deal.
Especially for someone like Kakashi, an Elite Jonin who was constantly on missions...
And more importantly, the guy didn't have a girlfriend. He lived with his dogs, and his biggest expense was probably dog food.
Dropping 200,000 Ryo in one go... Kakashi was definitely loaded.
Yuto also remembered clearly that when Kakashi told Pakkun to fetch the money, he mentioned it was stored in a cabinet.
'Maybe I'll swing by Kakashi's place if I run out of money...'
Yuto chuckled at the thought. Stealing from a Ninja... what was he thinking?
If he really ran out of resource quota, he could always loan some from Kakashi...
And if Kakashi was willing to spend money on the game, that would be even better.
After thinking it over, Yuto decided not to worry about the cost.
"Let's try one pull and see..."
"After one pull, I'll still have 19 pulls left... no, I mean 190,000 Ryo."
Yuto clicked into the gacha page. The interface was simple, even a bit shabby, and Yuto couldn't help but complain.
'With ten minutes, I could design something ten times better than this.'
After clicking to pull, a treasure chest-like item appeared on the screen...
Though this was still in the system interface, not in the real world.
Seeing this, Yuto rolled his eyes, 'Why all these flashy effects...'
He opened the chest, and suddenly, a bright blue light shone from it.
'A blue-tier item? What good could that be?'
[Mangekyo Sharingan...]
"Holy crap! Mangekyo?!"
Yuto shouted out loud, then immediately looked around. Realizing no one was nearby, he hurriedly checked again.
However, it was only then that he noticed the words behind the Mangekyo Sharingan...
[Mangekyo Sharingan (Ability: Uchiha Obito) (Duration: 10 minutes)]
Now, looking at it again, Yuto felt like it was a bit of a letdown.
'Useless to keep, but a shame to throw away.'
'I'm a game developer. What am I supposed to do with this? If it were permanent, fine, but it's time-limited...'
'Still, this was something I had spent 10,000 Ryo to pull, so I might as well keep it. It might come in handy later.'
'Moreover, this is Obito's Mangekyo, and its intangibility ability could help me avoid a lot of danger.'
"Forget it... I just hope it doesn't drain too much Chakra. At least I don't have to worry about eye strain or some bloodline disease."
Yuto couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed. After all, it would be better if it were permanent... Still, it wasn't bad, but the initial excitement had been wasted.
He just didn't feel satisfied...
Then Yuto realized why he was feeling this way.
'I hadn't gotten my gacha fix!'
'Anyway, I still has 190,000 Ryo... why not go for a ten-pull?'
'Let's do it!'
Yuto had come to terms with it. He felt that holding onto Ryo was pointless, and the best use was to spend it on the gacha.
However, as a seasoned gacha player, Yuto knew that to get good drops, he had to be devout.
So, after washing his face, he prepared to pull!
With a mix of nervousness and excitement, Yuto's trembling finger clicked the ten-pull button...
"Give me something good! God bless, Amitabha..."
[Special Soldier Pill]
[Special Soldier Pill]
[Chakra Proficiency Book]
[Healing Pill]
[Special Soldier Pill]
[Healing Pill]

[Strength Pill]

Yuto stared silently at the sea of white-tier items, with only one green-tier item, the Chakra Proficiency Book, standing out.
'Great, just great. Either Special Soldier Pills or Healing Pills... Anyone would think I'm running a pill wholesale business.'
But Yuto wasn't too upset. Maybe it was the 'can't be harmed in any way' buff protecting his mood.
His emotions were very complicated at this moment.
Normally, if this were a card game, and after saving up for so long, with a ten-pull only yielded these results, he would've been cursing the game by now.
However, at this moment, he felt like laughing instead.
'Oh, so that's how it is? My first pull was actually lucky?'
