“It truly is burning life!”
Shūichi explained, “Or rather, it’s burning Yang Release chakra.”
“Life thrives on motion, and burning is the most intense form of motion.”
“In this state, the cells are highly activated, granting not only remarkable self-healing but also incredible reflexes and strength.”
“Most importantly, while burning appears wild and destructive, it can still be precisely controlled, preserving the advantages of medical ninj...

Utaha Kasumigaoka stayed at Ichin’s house for a little while but eventually headed home, as Ichin needed to get back to work, and she didn’t want to interrupt him.
After returning home, Utaha went straight to her bedroom and opened her laptop. She started typing a few lines, but suddenly, her motivation faded. After procrastinating a bit, she closed the document and opened Steam instead, navigating to the Slay the Spire game page.
Although she knew that Ichin's g...

“The Mangekyō Sharingan combined with the Sage Body can awaken the Rinnegan…”
Uchiha Shisui was stunned by this revelation.
But he quickly responded, “Wait, Shūichi, didn’t Obito also obtain the First Hokage’s cells?”
Shūichi nodded, turning his gaze to White Zetsu, Tobi. “It’s likely not just the Mangekyō Sharingan and Sage Body, right?”
White Zetsu Tobi, ever the sycophant, began to flatter: “As expected of Lord Shūichi—”

Mondstadt, Knights of Favonius Headquarters.
A purple magic circle, flickering with electrical energy, appeared in the vacant Acting Grand Master's office. Several figures emerged from within the circle.
It was, of course, Nolan and his companions.
"Oh my, teleporting so many people at once is a bit tiring," Lisa said, dispersing the magic circle. She stretched and smiled at Nolan. "It's not as effortless as your ‘Interstellar Travel,’ little adventurer."

“Shisui!”
Shūichi appeared beside Shisui, who was feeding his crows.
“Shūichi,” Shisui greeted him warmly, turning with a gentle smile. “I can feel a powerful surge stirring within me. I sense it’s about to awaken.”
Shūichi’s eyes lit up with excitement. “It seems that awakening and evolving the Sharingan doesn’t necessarily require emotional trauma. The key lies in mental strength and spiritual resolve.”
Shisui nodded in agreement.

After school, since his game had launched today, Ichin decided not to have anyone continue testing it. He had already given activation codes to all the members of the Game Club, and they were surely playing it themselves. If there were any bugs, they could easily contact him via phone.
It was the same with Eriri. She had already mentioned it during lunch, so Ichin packed up his bag and prepared to head home.
Glancing at Utaha standing next to him, Ichin asked, "I’m heading home....

Ebony Maw stared blankly into the darkness before him.
Why was this so different from what he had envisioned?
Initially, he had intended to use the Space Stone within the Tesseract, channeling a bit of its space-transmitting power to transport Loki to Earth.
But... where was that power?
Ebony Maw was stunned.
Loki, who had been waiting for some time, was equally bewildered.
Weren’t they supposed to send him to Earth today to start causing trouble?

Alan nodded and continued, "Yes, I knew from the moment Mystique entered the house."

"Even Red Queen didn’t tell me," Gwen said with a look of dissatisfaction.
Seeing her expression, Alan explained, "It was my decision for Red Queen not to inform you."

"Oh my, it looks like Eula lost. What a splendid fight," Lisa said, hands folded under her chest as she smiled slightly.
"Yes, the Honorary Knight's swordsmanship appears to be superior to both mine and Eula's. It was clear he was holding back," Jean, herself a sword master, remarked after watching the entire battle closely.

On this rare day, Kushina Uzumaki came to the Hokage’s office to accompany Minato Namikaze at work. It just so happened that Shūichi returned from his meeting with the Daimyō.
Hearing Shūichi’s account, Kushina’s eyes widened. "Shūichi, the Daimyō doesn’t actually believe you, does he?"
Shūichi chuckled. "Such a tempting offer is hard to resist."
Kushina thoughtfully rubbed her chin. "But… if anyone really analyzes it, they’ll see it’s impossible to...

Shūichi and Pakura stood side by side, facing Sarutobi Asuma. Shūichi asked gravely, "Asuma, are you sure you want to take the final step?"
"Although you’ve managed to endure the malice of the Tailed Beast Chakra, mastering it still poses immense danger."
"Kakashi succeeded, yes, but he also faced the risk of severe physical mutations back then."
Sarutobi Asuma nodded seriously. "I’ve thought this thr...

Alan, who was sitting on the sofa, listened to Red Queen's report and immediately guessed what was happening.
With Tony's capabilities, going head-to-head against Magneto without developing various anti-battle suits was almost impossible.
So, Tony had taken control of the military's missiles to threaten Magneto into stopping.

Morning.
The room, with the curtains drawn, had a somewhat dim atmosphere. The candle on the bedside table had long since burned out.
Nolan slowly opened his eyes and rubbed the corners of them.
Beside him lay Fischl, her long golden hair loosely scattered, without any constraint. She was still sound asleep, half-wrapped around his body.
Gently, Nolan withdrew his left arm and brushed away the soft strands of hair falling over her forehead.
Last night, she went a...

Leaving the experimental base and passing through a forest, Shūichi saw Kakashi sparring with Rin.
After being bedridden for so long, even with regular care, it was impossible for Rin to recover her full strength immediately after waking up.
Walking was manageable, but regaining combat readiness required constant training.
Shūichi quietly observed from a distance, stepping forward only when Rin took a break. “Looks like you’re recovering well.”

Konan returned to the high tower she shared with Nagato, waiting for a full hour before Uchiha Obito finally arrived with Nagato.
This delay was because White Zetsu had confirmed that Shūichi had already left.
Nagato was clearly displeased. As soon as he saw Konan, he asked, "Konan, did that Shūichi do anything to you?"
Konan glanced at Uchiha Obito, cloaked and masked, and replied, "That man left a Flying Thunder God mark on me."

Black Zetsu remarked, “This is only a fraction of the Rinnegan’s power.”
White Zetsu curiously asked, “By the way, do you think this is enough to seal Shūichi?”
Uchiha Obito, sharing the same curiosity, felt a tinge of unease in his heart.

Upon hearing Shūichi’s plan, Minato Namikaze’s expression turned serious. He didn’t object, but he asked, “Are you going alone again?”
Shūichi nodded. “Quick and efficient.”
“Besides, in a battle at this level, even regular jōnin wouldn’t be able to intervene.”
“Shisui is still not quite there yet.”
Asuka’s Adamantine Sealing Chains were powerful, but he didn’t want to risk her safety.

Time quickly moved to May.
Hayate Gekkō arrived at the experimental base once again. This time, unlike the nervousness he felt during his last visit, he was mostly filled with curiosity.
However, before he could see much, Asuka led him into an operating room, where he lay down on the surgical table. She efficiently prepared the setup, arranged the medical seals, and administered anesthesia.
By the time Shūichi arrived from Tsunade’s side, everything was ready.

This means, if things don’t change, the countdown to the Nine-Tails’ rampage has begun.

Once his wound healed, Shūichi stepped to the mouth of the cave, gazing toward the misty, rain-soaked village of Amegakure in the distance.
"With the Seventh Gate open, Nagato wouldn't stand a chance."
After the recent exchange, Shūichi was certain that at full strength, Nagato couldn’t be a true match.
