Chapter 19
Ahem, in any case, gun-blade type weapons might really have great potential.
Better to design it first.
Since matchlocks and flintlocks were too clunky, why not make a version that used chakra to activate the ammo? And it'd be even better if a spatial ninjutsu system could be installed inside the magazine—every shot could summon a new bullet directly, or even special bullets stuffed with explosive tags.
Now that would be satisfying as hell.
Tenten would probably love it. Even if she was still a little kid, her talent as a weapon specialist should make her receptive to new ninja tools.
By the time they got familiar with each other, and once Tenten graduated into Guy's team, Natsuki could naturally get to know Might Guy too.

"Huh? Oh, I was just thinking about something exciting," Natsuki replied awkwardly and went back to sketching his designs.
Shino raised a brow in doubt but didn't ask further. He just couldn't figure out what kind of "happy thought" could make someone smile like that. Only Naruto ever looked like that when fantasizing about Sakura...
After school in the afternoon, Natsuki said goodbye to his friends and waited near the school gate.
One by one, students from other years left campus, and before long, the person he was waiting for appeared.
