Chapter 651: Our Goal Is to Be the Champion
Manchester City defeated Manchester United 5â3 and won the Community Shield!
After the match, all of England erupted.
No one had expected the Community Shield to turn out so spectacular.
The two sides scored a total of eight goalsâit was a true goal-fest.
Although they missed out on the trophy, Manchester United manager Ferguson still spoke highly of the match in his post-game interview, stating that his player...
After entering Hakuo, Nagi led Isumi and Maria straight to the Kendo Club, located in a secluded corner of the campus.
From a distance, the sound of bamboo swords clashing echoed out from the Kendo Club.
Nagi opened the sliding door and stepped inside.
A strong, sour stench hit her face, almost overwhelming her resolve to enter the Kendo Club. But remembering the reason she came to Hakuo, she forced herself to keep walking.
There weren't many people in the club. Ev...
Chapter 200: We Have a Traitor
Solomon Islands.
Pennsylvania City.
In a basement in the slums.
The basement was fairly large, illuminated by yellow lights, and crowded with six people.
Barry, Bruce, Constantine, Hal, Victor, and an Indonesian Javanese man over fifty years old, with graying temples and deep wrinkles on his faceâJacopo.
He was the one helping them with his solid medical knowledge.
Previously, while fleeing from Barmulodi's pursuit,...
Everything has its cause and effect. What happened to Robert today was entirely his own fault.
Just imagineâif all the Kingsguard were like Barristan Selmy, what kind of splash could Jaime make even if he had three heads and six arms?
The purpose of the Kingsguard is to protect the king and the royal bloodline. The requirements for selection are strength, loyalty, and wisdom. At the end of the War of the Usurper, five positions in the Kingsguard needed to be filledâsix, if y...
The newly born Jogo had no idea that the human standing before her would be this powerful.
Her relentless, high-speed barrage was actually evaded by the human using just his body movements. This level of speed was far beyond normal human standards.
"Looks like you're done."
As Satoshi watched Jogo begin to pant, he stopped playing around.
Seeing his HohĆ experience bar steadily rising, Satoshi felt that he had held back enough.
He returned Sode no Shirayuki...
Chapter 161: Hone onna
Attributes related to Yama?
There was a flash of surprise in Lynn's eyes.
Then his mind sank, and suddenly, every corner of Hell unfolded within his mind.
After a while, he opened his eyes.
He thought to himself, After gaining Yama's attributes, can I control the Underworld?
ButâŠ
It's limited to Japan only...
AndâŠ
There seemed to be some minor changes, but now wasn't the time to dwell on them.
Lyn...
If anyone in the world understands the Uchiha clan best, and Senju Tobirama dares to call himself second, then not even the Sage of Six Paths would dare claim to be first.
His evaluation of the Uchiha was also spot on.
No clan cherishes love more deeply than the Uchiha. Once they truly experience love, the emotions that have been tightly bound are unleashed.
But such emotions are often too extreme and exclusive. Once stimulated to awaken the Sharingan, the pineal gland si...
Once again, it was proven that when you're struggling to find a suitable topic, chatting with someone who knows how to talk can easily break the ice and help two strangers become familiar quickly.
Ethan was sure that S.H.I.E.L.D. had people monitoring this area, but he wasn't sure if they had the means to record his conversation with Steve Rogers. Judging by S.H.I.E.L.D.'s capabilities, it likely wasn't difficult for them.
"How did you get involved with S.H.I.E.L.D.?"
Alt...
Chapter 649: Five Goals
In the stands of Wembley Stadium, England national team head coach Capello and his assistant Galbiati were carefully studying the lineups and tactics of the two teams on the pitch.
Tonight, both teams featured England internationals.
For example, Manchester City had Leighton Baines starting and Sturridge on the bench.
Manchester United also fielded two popular internationalsâRooney and Carrick.
From the start of the match, the natio...
Caught just after the dismissal of Teitan High School, the time was 4:23 in the afternoon.
Sitting inside her family's shuttle bus, Nagi's first words were:
"Let's go to Hakuo."
She knew Hakuo enforced an elite education system. School dismissal there wouldn't be this early, especially for a student council president who had club responsibilities. At the very least, it would still be an hour away.
The bodyguard quickly started the car and drove toward Hakuo.
Barry stood tall, chest lifted, beneath the dark clouds as thunder gathered and roared above, echoing his furious rage.
Yellow electric arcs crackled beneath his feet, snapping and crackling against the dust suspended in the air.
He stood like the god of thunder and war amid the storm, bathed in yellow lightning. Thunder rumbled above him, crowning him with a halo of wrathful electricity.
Barry's face was contorted in anger, faint blue veins bulging across his skin, inter...
"Ser Selmy." Aegor had shared a moonlit conversation with the Knight before, so when he saw him appear, he greeted him first.
Eddard nodded to the newcomer as well. "Barristan, is everything settled?"
âŠ
Yesterday, they had received word that Cersei was plotting rebellion, prompting Eddard and Robert to act swiftly against the Lannisters. It was a matter of utmost urgency. Since they couldn't determine which nobles and officials inside the Red Keep were loyal to which si...
Chapter 151: The Thrill
"Satoru, Lord Tengen really doesn't have any hostility toward Satoshi! Please believe that."
Yuto understood the inside story, so he was unwilling to let relations between the Tombs of the Star and the Gojo clan fall apart.
Tengen meant well, but her method was simply too unorthodox.
How could a newly born Special Grade Cursed Spirit be prepared as a gift for a visiting guest?
...
At the same time, the Tombs of the Star had ent...
Chapter 158: Hell
"Hell Correspondence?"
A flicker of surprise crossed Lynn's eyes.
"That's right!"
Iwanaga Kotoko nodded, her tone serious. "That hell website only appears at midnight. Once someone filled with hatred writes down a name, Hell Girl appears and drags the target to hell."
Listening to her explanation, Lynn felt the setup sounded increasingly familiar.
Hell Girl?
Come to think of it⊠there really is a Hell in this worldâŠ
Three days before the final round of the Chƫnin Exams.
Yami finally emerged from the underground training room, giving Pakura quite a scare.
"What kind of ninjutsu are you training that you're working this hard?" she asked.
"I'm starving. I want beef."
Yami rubbed his stomach and sat down at the dining table. "If it were just ninjutsu, that'd be fine. But it's all book reading, theory, and stuff... it's killing me."
"You're still growing. Can't you take thi...
Chapter 192: Chips
Using the Arc Reactor as the main power source didn't mean the magic stone technology was completely abandoned.
As Tony gained a deeper understanding of magic stone technology, he came to believe that, with the tech Ethan had mastered and the particular magic stone he possessed, one that could continuously output energy but wouldn't release it beyond a certain thresholdâit could be used as a secondary power source. This strange magic stone that reduced energ...
Chapter 647: Profound and Violent TheoryEver since Gao Shen first revealed that he would be bringing in an exciting signing, the whole world had been eagerly waiting.
From Messi to Ronaldo, Kaka to Ribery, then to Rooney, Torres, Gerrard, DrogbaâŠ
Anyway, a long list of superstars were hyped and speculated on by the media, one after another.
In the end, who would've guessed it would be Van Persie?
Van Persie wasn't an unknown player, but he wasn't exactly the kind...
All the students spent a sluggish Monday.
After a two-day weekend, being suddenly dragged back to school was a jarring experience. Everyone needed time to adjust. This cycle repeated almost every week. Even though they knew classes resumed on Monday, they still couldn't muster the energy when it mattered.
"Oh! School's finally over!"
Nagi, who had been listless all day, suddenly perked up.
"Nagi, you only become energetic after school," Isumi sighed.
"How sh...
Chapter 197: Batman vs. Constantine
The environment was dim.
The sky rumbled endlessly, and the dark clouds churned like a beast, growling in unrest.
On Tesco Verier Island, over 90% of the year was spent under this kind of turbulent skyârolling clouds and relentless flashes of lightning that carried an ominous, bone-deep unease.
Now, with Bruce's lightning rod in place, electrical charge rattled across its frame. Silver arcs crackled around it, the magnetic fiel...
The Usurper and the Kingslayer, two Targaryen slayers, now stood face to face.
Myrcella was still crying and struggling, trying to stop her "father" and "uncle" from fighting. Two Kingsguard loyal to the king followed Robert's ordersâone pulled the prince away, the other restrained the princess, both with hands on their sword hilts, ready to intervene at a moment's notice. As a sworn protector of the king, Jaime now found himself facing the sword and hammer of the very man he had vow...
Chapter 154: Again
"So," he began.
His hand swept up and down, caressing her thighs and laps.
His left hand landed on her other thigh, trailing his fingers from her waist, groping her fleshy laps.
Kuroka gasped as Lynn slipped his fingers between her legs. The waters of her pink pussy threaded his fingers.
Lynn spread his fingers and began to stroke the outer layers of her vulva, letting the thick moisture of her juices drip all over him. The Nekomata's face...
On the agreed day, Satoshi, Satoru, and Toji arrived near the Tombs of the Star at the same time.
The entire jujutsu world was paying attention to Satoshi and his group. The reappearance of the Tombs of the Star, long absent from the public eye, was no ordinary matter.
Although Satoshi didn't believe Tengen would harm him, he still insisted on bringing Toji along. As for Satoru, he simply wanted to tag along.
"Three distinguished guests, Lord Tengen invites you."
A...
This time, in response to RaidĆ Namiashi's question, everyone fell silent.
Very soon, the Genin from the Land of Rivers who had just spoken announced his withdrawal, and his teammates followed suit. Uchiha Itachi's two teammates and two other Konoha teams also gave up.
They were all the "lucky ones" who had witnessed Yami killing people and were filled with fear.
Even if they stayed, they knew they wouldn't perform well enough to be promoted to Chƫnin. Rather than risk ...
Under Tony's various adjustments, the projected Prinz Eugen on the workbench underwent many changes.
First, both the above- and below-water sections of the hull were fine-tuned and modernized. That tweak alone already made the ship look different from the original Prinz Eugen.
Even without considering black technology, the design of the Prinz Eugen from World War II had many outdated elements, and almost all of its superstructures were adjusted and optimized by Tony.
The ...
Chapter 645: The Greatest Central Defender
Gao Shen once said that Mourinho wasn't good at utilizing technically gifted players.
In fact, that's only half the story.
Mourinho also isn't great at developing young players.
His strongest coaching ability lies in management.
He excels at managing mature or nearly mature players, uniting them, and forging a competitive, cohesive squad.
But developing young players requires more than just management. It req...
Chapter 222: Demigod
"I'm back!"
With a cheerful smile, Chika pulled her suitcase behind her as she returned home.
The house was unusually lively.
Not only were her father, mother, older sister, and younger sister present, but also her grandfather, grandmother, uncle, and aunt. Nearly all the key members of the family were gathered.
"Chika's home."
Her grandfather greeted her with a broad smile in response to her bright expression.
"How was it?...
Islands near Indonesia.
Tesco Verier.
In the jungle.
The undergrowth thrived, the trees unusually tall and lush due to magnetic field disturbances. Bright, exotic piranha plants emitted strong, alluring aromas.
Dim light filtered through the gaps in the canopy, as a cool breeze rustled the leaves with a faint and continuous sound.
Hot biogas rose from the forest floor, accompanied by low rumbles of thunder, easily stirring unease in anyone who stepped foot here.

All the brothers of the Night's Watch disarmed and entered the Red Keep under the guidance of the grey-robed guard who had informed them. However, they did not go to the Tower of the Hand as Aegor had expected. Instead, they stopped at a small square along the path toward Maegor's Holdfastâwhere Eddard Stark was already waiting.
As the Hand of the King, Eddard had many pressing duties that day. Stepping out personally was not beneath him if it saved time. He only hoped these Night's ...
Chapter 148: Young Geto Suguru
Ieiri Residence.
Although Ieiri Inamichi wasn't optimistic about Satoshi's trip to the Tombs of the Star, he still hoped Satoshi could safely complete his audience with Lord Tengen.
Even so, he couldn't help but feel frustrated.
What's wrong with my daughter Shoko? Why did he have to get involved with a Star Plasma Vessel?
That situation is already messy enough. Most people wouldn't want to get anywhere near it, yet Satoshi wal...
Chapter 151: Itâs You?
"A Maou?"
Rias stared at Lynn's back, exclaiming in disbelief, her pupils trembling.
Lynn was truly powerful.
She had suspected it before... but still!
That was a Fallen Angel executive!
One of the strongest Fallen Angels!
And yet, he was defeated in an instant by Lynn?
She never could've imagined that!
A strange light flickered in Rias's eyes as her heart pounded wildly.
For a moment, it felt like ...
