You will unlock Portable Items in Dynasty Warriors Origins in Chapter 2. As such, you must complete the entirety of Chapter 1 without any of these items. Given that a majority of the first chapter serves as a tutorial where you get the general hang of the game, that should not be very difficult. As the enemies get more difficult and battles become more prolonged, you will have to use Portable Items to emerge victorious.

Portable Items are equipment that you can carry with your character at all times. These can be used anytime during combat and will have a variety of effects. They can be items that you can use to heal and restore health, or you can also use some items to temporarily raise your stats like attack power. However, you can only carry a specific number of these with you at a given time. Moreover, all Portable Items can be used only once; they are exhausted once you consume them.
