That's why I said "at least in the manga". But it seems to be a strange conisidence if Shukaku's sand manipulation doesn't come from the MR, but the Trird Kazekage managed to imitate this ability of sort (Iron Sand) by using nothing but the MR itself. Okay, he was said to have his own natural ability to convert chakra into magnetic forces (the MR manifestation), but he choose to use it in exactly the same manner as Shukaku did with the sand, although using a different material (Iron Sand).
