"Haha!" Haruto laughed, pulling out the next prize from the ball of light.
"Ah! That looks like Asuma-sensei's Chakra blades!" Ino exclaimed, recognizing the familiar-looking weapon.
"Close," Haruto nodded. "This is called brass knuckles, a weapon worn on the hand."
"But since it came from my golden egg shop, it's far more special than your average weapon," he added with a smirk.
"In addition to functioning similarly to Asuma's Chakra blades, these brass knuckles have a special effect—a certain chance to instantly knock out an enemy!"
"Oh, this is awesome!" Kiba's eyes lit up with excitement.
As someone who thrived on close combat, he loved nothing more than fistfights.
A true warrior relied on his fists to determine victory!
"Haha!" Haruto laughed as he saw Kiba grinning like a fool, admiring his new weapon.
He had long since given up hope on expecting any intelligent reactions from Naruto or Kiba.
Moving on, Haruto pulled out the next item.
"I think you all recognize this," he said, holding up a regional speaker.
"Oh! That's the thing Ino mentioned before!" Chōji's eyes widened. "What was it called again… Regional something?"
"The Regional Speaker," Haruto confirmed. "I doubt I need to explain how it works."
"Hehe! No need!" Kiba waved his hands excitedly.
Just imagining himself defeating Naruto in battle and announcing it across the entire village made him grin ear to ear.
Wearing the Hokage's robe, standing before a cheering crowd…
"Yeah! That's the dream!"
Next, Ino pointed at another glowing object.
"Is that… another space ring, like Shino's?"
"Yep," Haruto nodded. "A one cubic meter storage ring, just like his."
"Oh, space ring?! Where?!" Kiba's ears perked up.
Ever since Shino had won one, Kiba had wanted one of his own.
He immediately started playing with it—storing and retrieving a kunai repeatedly, completely mesmerized.
With the brass knuckles and space ring, he couldn't be happier.
"Best egg-smashing session ever!"
"Haha, don't get too excited yet!" Haruto teased. "The best prizes are still ahead!"
Kiba's eyes shone.
"So praying before smashing eggs really does work!"
Haruto then pulled out a small bottle of pills.
"Ninja Beast Pills!" he declared.
"I don't even need to explain this one."
"I know, I know!" Kiba snatched them up immediately, stuffing them into his ninja pouch.
Akamaru might not need them anymore, but plenty of others in the Inuzuka Clan did.
Ever since word spread about these pills being found at the Golden Egg Shop, his clan had been desperate to get their hands on them.
By now, they were probably organizing a squad to come and smash eggs themselves.
His sister, Inuzuka Hana, had spent all night trying to analyze the pill but couldn't figure out the exact ingredients.
That meant there was only one way to obtain them—through Haruto's golden eggs.
For the wealthy Inuzuka clan, spending 1998 ryo per egg was nothing. They'd happily smash eggs daily if it meant getting more of these pills!
"The next item is your biggest prize today!" Haruto announced, glancing at Kiba.
"Oh? What is it?!" Kiba's excitement peaked.
Haruto pulled out a mysterious-looking card.
"The Beast Walker Experience Card!"
He continued explaining, "This technique was developed by a legendary master named Udyr. In honor of his creation, he became known as the Beast Spirit Walker!"
"Udyr? That name sounds cool!" Kiba grinned. "I bet he was a ninja beast tamer, just like me!"
"After using this card, you'll be able to channel the energy of four primal beast spirits, each granting you unique powers."
Haruto held up four fingers.
"The Tiger Spirit grants speed and ferocity."
"The Turtle Spirit provides defensive resilience."
"The Bear Spirit boosts raw strength."
"And the Phoenix Spirit wields the power of fire and rebirth!"
"If you master all of them… you'll have an incredibly powerful skillset!"
Kiba nodded excitedly, carefully placing the experience card into his pouch.
"A shame this one's just a trial card," Haruto added.
"It only lasts for three days. After that, you won't be able to use the beast spirits' power anymore."
"Got it!" Kiba replied.
Even if it was temporary, it could still be a powerful trump card in battle!
"Alright, last item!" Haruto reached into the final light sphere and pulled out…
A set of syringes.
"AHHHHH!!!"
The moment Kiba saw them, he let out a terrified howl, diving behind Asuma for cover.
Even Akamaru hid under the table, tail tucked between his legs.
"???"
Haruto blinked, completely confused.
"What just happened? Who am I? Where am I? What did I do?!"
"Kiba, what's wrong with you?!" Ino asked, raising an eyebrow.
Shikamaru and Chōji, however, immediately understood.
It was that incident from childhood.
The details were fuzzy, but after one particularly bad hospital visit, both Kiba and Akamaru had developed a crippling fear of needles.
Ever since then, just seeing a syringe made them freeze up.
Even Naruto had the same reaction.
Haruto sighed. "Well, it looks like you aren't lucky enough to enjoy this one."
Curious, Ino stepped forward.
"Boss, what is it, anyway?"
"These are called Adrenaline Shots!" Haruto handed three syringes to Ino.
"Injecting adrenaline immediately restores all chakra and gradually heals injuries."
"On top of that, it greatly accelerates chakra flow, boosting the user's speed significantly!"
"Wait… isn't this basically a battle stimulant?" Ino asked.
"No, it's even better!" Haruto corrected her. "Unlike normal stimulants, there are zero side effects!"
"Ohh! That's actually amazing!" Ino nodded in approval.
"So, Kiba…" Ino grinned devilishly.
"Do you still want these?"
Kiba stiffened.
"You—you wrap them up for me!" he stammered.
Ino rolled her eyes but obliged, wrapping the syringes in cloth before handing them over.
Kiba hesitated before taking them, then let out a relieved sigh.
"Haha~~" Scratching his head awkwardly, he finally stepped out from behind Asuma.
"Alright!" Haruto clapped his hands. "Who's next?"
His gaze shifted toward Asuma and Chōji.
