"Incoming!"
Obito’s Sharingan barely caught the movement. His body, however, reacted on instinct.
Mufasa’s fist shot toward his left shoulder, crackling with electricity. Obito’s body phased automatically, allowing the attack to pass through.
But before he could exhale, another punch struck his back.
Kamui.
Obito flickered intangible once again, but the pressure was mounting.
The more he avoided, the more relentless Mufasa became.
From ...
"You're not speaking very clearly. Seems like Jean is still fighting back from within you, messing with your mind." Ethan studied Phoenix with intrigue.
"Good. That means you're not at full power. Makes this a lot easier." The moment the words left his mouth, Ethan launched forward like a bullet, closing the distance between them in an instant.
"Die!" Phoenix roared, her voice shaking the air.
The once-still water around her boiled violently, reacting to her fury.
"Fuck me!" Ted blurted out, staring at the quest notification in disbelief.
Was the system trying to get him killed? This was Voldemort—well, technically, Quirrell—but still, the Dark Lord himself! No amount of XP was worth getting Avada Kedavra’d over!
He was just about to abandon all hope when he spotted the Weasley twins nearby, casually enchanting a snowball to hover menacingly in the air.
A devious grin spread across his face.
"Cough! Hermione, I need to...
After the opening feast, the Gryffindor crew made their way to their usual secret hideout—an abandoned classroom tucked away in the castle’s depths.
Those who had gone home for the holidays eagerly shared their experiences, swapping stories of family traditions, misadventures, and the occasional magical mishap.
Harley turned to Hermione with a grateful smile.
"Thanks for the Christmas gift, Hermione—Muggle contact lenses. These things are brilliant!"
Ron, Ne...
Obito stood still, staring at Mufasa, who met his gaze with a smirk.
He understood now.
This mission was a waste of time.
Mufasa’s perception and illusion abilities were on par with his own.
Any hope of manipulating him, as he had done with the Fourth Mizukage, was completely out of the question.
It was time to make a swift exit.
Obito forced a chuckle. "Haha, my bad. Wrong tent. Can I leave now?"
Mufasa raised an eyebrow. "Oh? You think you...
"Professor's with the others, Mr. Logan, he needs you, just go to where we came in." Ethan said,
"What about him?" Logan asked, gesturing at Stryker, already cornered.
"Well, I assure you, he won't be going anywhere with me here," Ethan assured with a confident look.
Wolvering looked conflicted for a few seconds, but thinking about his friend Charles and his students needing him, he scoffed and looked at Ethan in the eyes.
"Make sure you don't let him get away, bu...
As Magneto stood deep in thought, Ethan had already approached and carefully removed the helmet from Professor X’s head.
This time, however, Magneto didn’t intervene.
Instead, he turned his gaze toward Mystique.
Understanding his silent command, Mystique leaned in and whispered something into Jason’s ear.
Receiving his orders from 'Stryker', Jason finally released the illusion that had kept Professor X ensnared.
“Well, it looks like we’ve receiv...
Although Ted had already explained to everyone that the Mirror of Erised was nothing more than an illusion, a reflection of one's deepest desires, it was still an irresistible temptation for twelve and thirteen-year-old kids.
For days after Christmas break, Ron and Jerry sneaked into that abandoned classroom every evening, staring into the mirror for hours, grinning at whatever visions it showed them.
This couldn’t go on.
Losing themselves in dreams without taking actio...
Boom!
Boom!
Dark storm clouds gathered rapidly, swirling ominously above the battlefield.
Thunder rumbled like a war drum, and streaks of lightning cracked through the sky.
A suffocating pressure filled the air as black clouds loomed overhead, thick and heavy, pressing down upon the ground like an impending disaster.
Then, in the midst of it all, Uchiha Sasuke stood tall.
Electricity crackled around him, arcs of lightning crawling over his skin like ...
"Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock!"
The lively beat of the song filled the Great Hall, turning Hogwarts into an unexpected concert venue.
"Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time~
"Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square~
"In the frosty air~"
Ted grinned as he strummed his enchanted guitar, his voice carrying through the enchanted ceiling. He had specially transfigured a music box to provide backup instrumentals, ensuring the rhythm was...
This time, it was the Uchiha brothers of the Fourth Team.
Sasuke scowled, arms crossed. "Itachi, I can handle this alone."
He wanted to prove himself—to fight without standing in his brother’s shadow.
Itachi merely smiled, lifting his right index finger and pressing it against Sasuke’s forehead.
"Just this once, okay?" he said softly. "Otouto."
Sasuke froze, a shiver running down his spine. That familiar touch, that gentle tone—it made his throat tig...
Ignoring Jason, the first thing Ethan did was shut off the brain wave amplifier, ensuring it wouldn’t activate.
But just as he reached to remove the helmet, Magneto stepped in front of him, blocking his path.
"What’s the problem?" Ethan turned to face him.
Magneto smirked. "Ethan, don’t you think it would be a shame to let things end like this?"
"This is an opportunity," he continued, his voice smooth and persuasive.
"We can do something Charles woul...
The two groups, once ready to clash, stood in stunned silence.
Their leaders were floating in the air, eating chicken wings.
Onoki had used his Earth Release: Light-Weight Rock Technique to craft a massive floating rock as a dining table.
Opposite him, Mufasa sat comfortably, matching his casual demeanor.
Beside them, Kurotsuchi poured wine, her expression unreadable.
Onoki sighed between bites. "This old man acknowledges your strength."
Mufasa smir...
Ted received the mission of social embarrassment, but he didn’t expect he’d have to gather the props himself.
Just like the greedy merchants in Diagon Alley, always making you pay for everything!
Ted was about to get up and prepare his "Santa Claus outfit" when he noticed a pile of gift boxes at the foot of his bed.
"Ah, the system distracted me, and I almost forgot about Christmas presents."
He picked up the first one, which turned out to be from Ron’s moth...
Over the vast and scenic Alkali Lake, a sleek black fighter jet soared through the sky at high speed.
Inside, the team gathered around, discussing their next move.
"After learning that we were planning to go after Stryker, Fury eagerly provided us with intelligence," Ethan explained.
"He confirmed that Stryker has been using the Alkali Lake Hydropower Station as a base. On top of that, he managed to dig up the original construction plans of the facility."
As soon...
Before Logan could react, the students exchanged knowing glances and nodded, mistaking his silence for agreement.
It seemed they truly had a student council president now.
"Alright, as your newly appointed president, I have a mission for you," Ethan declared, folding his arms with a mischievous smirk.
"In a little while, these lovely S.H.I.E.L.D. agents will be doing your makeup. Your job? Play dead. And the more dramatic the death, the better. Make it Oscar-worthy."
After discussing the concept of levels, let’s move on to attributes.
The average adult has an attribute score of 5 points.
For younger students at Hogwarts, their physical agility and reflexes usually range between 3 to 4 points.
When it comes to intelligence, it generally fluctuates between 4 and 6 points.
Take Hermione, for example.
She’s a naturally gifted student with an impressive 7 points in intelligence!
And she’s only twelve!
I...
At present, the ninja world remains primitive in its understanding of both oil and chakra.
The civilization has yet to reach even the first level of true advancement.
To achieve a world where everyone is as powerful as a country itself and freedom flows like the wind, Mufasa believed that in this world, where chakra and different kinds of energy are abundant, a civilization needed to advance at least to the third level.
A level where individuals could accomplish anything ...
Late at night, near the outskirts of Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters, a group of figures gathered in the shadows.
"Sir, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s new recruit, Agent 0233, reporting for duty," a young agent announced, saluting Coulson and Melinda May beside him.
Ethan crossed his arms, nodding as he observed the fresh recruit.
"Agent 0233, have you completed the task I assigned to you?"
"Yes, sir," the agent affirmed, though there was a hesitation in his voice.
"Oh! Headmaster!" Ted exclaimed, startled by the unexpected encounter.
Dumbledore, dressed in deep blue pajamas with a matching nightcap, peered at him through his half-moon spectacles.
His eyes twinkled with curiosity and amusement, but there was also an unmistakable sharpness behind them.
"Good evening, Mr. Epifani. I do hope you weren’t out for a casual night stroll—Hogwarts at night can be quite... interesting."
Ted quickly collected his thoughts.
...
As he arrived, he noticed a small unit escorting a group of captured Iwa-nin.
From the hardened expressions of the captors, Mufasa could tell—these were not ordinary prisoners.
He watched as the squad’s leader approached. "Lord Kazekage, this woman is Kurotsuchi, granddaughter of the Tsuchikage, Onoki. She’s a Bloodline Limit user of Lava Release. We’ve taken extra precautions."
Mufasa’s gaze landed on her.
Short black hair, dark eyes, a sharp yet strikin...
[Bonus chapt!]
"Mr. President, you’re lucky—just a hair’s breadth away.”
A thin, silver-haired man with wire-rimmed glasses peered down at the small hole in the wooden desk, his expression unreadable.
A mutant assassin had come dangerously close just moments ago, his knife missing its target by mere inches.
Instead of sinking into the President’s skull, the blade had embedded itself into the table, its tip still vibrating from the force.
“I won...
"War is inevitable."
"People will always find a reason—religion, ideology, resources, land, revenge, love, or even something as trivial as a whim. Any excuse is enough to spark conflict."
"Humanity is a species drawn to its own destruction."
"So don't turn away from war."
"Face it head-on."
"Come with me to Iwagakure, and together, we will bring true peace!"
Mufasa stood tall, exuding confidence and determination.
Across from him, Pain and Ko...
In the end, Professor X agreed to the request brought back by Ethan.
Having someone with level-five clearance within S.H.I.E.L.D. was an invaluable asset, and Charles saw this as an opportunity to foster goodwill and strengthen ties between the mutant community and the organization.
With Jean Grey’s assistance, Tony underwent his first major surgery.
Her telekinetic precision far exceeded Fury’s expectations—so much so that the attending surgeon was relegated to a...
"Helena, think back carefully. Try to remember the time you spent with Ms. Ravenclaw. Did she ever mention anything related to this?" Ted asked, his tone steady yet urgent.
Helena’s gaze became distant, lost in thought. "Thoughts... clustered thoughts..." she murmured, her translucent form flickering slightly.
For ghosts, who had no real concept of time, this kind of meditation could take hours.
And it did.
When Ted returned from dinner, Helena was still in the...
In the magical world, there are eleven well-known wizarding schools spread across different continents, each with its own traditions and magical specialties.
Among the most famous are the three European schools, which have a history of interaction through events like the Triwizard Tournament.
Hogwarts, Durmstrang, and Beauxbatons have maintained a long-standing connection, though each operates with its own unique culture and magical focus.
Beyond Europe, there’s Koldov...
Stark Industries’ decision to shut down its weapons division was the hottest topic on television.
In a viral segment, a flamboyant talk show host leaned forward with an exaggerated grin, eyes gleaming with amusement.
"Stark Industries is closing its weapons department, huh? Let’s take a wild guess at what happens next!" he declared theatrically.
With a dramatic flourish, he placed a ceramic cup on the desk, pulled out a baseball bat from under the table, and, with on...
The concrete wall had turned a deep, molten red from the relentless flames.
Outside, the Sand Shinobi team leader called out, his voice carrying over the roar of the fire.
"Rock Shinobi, surrender now! We don't wish to take lives unnecessarily. We are here to negotiate peace.
Lay down your arms, and we promise no harm will come to you. Once the talks are over, you’ll be free to return to your village."
Inside the barricade, Kurotsuchi and her squad exchanged gla...
Professor X has an uncanny ability to detect mutants due to the unique structure of their brainwaves, which differ from those of ordinary humans.
With the aid of Cerebro, a powerful brainwave amplifier, he can locate mutants across the globe.
However, this ability has its limits when it comes to tracking ordinary humans.
Mutants are vastly outnumbered, making it unrealistic to sift through billions of human brainwaves.
More importantly, Professor X has never eve...
In the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, Nick Fury sat at his desk, sifting through an endless pile of documents.
The aftermath of the Harlem incident had left the military scrambling to save face.
General Ross and his people were too busy pointing fingers at each other to deal with the mess, leaving S.H.I.E.L.D. to clean up.
Fury had taken the initiative to step in, knowing that handling the situation would give him leverage over the military and strengthen S.H.I.E.L.D.'s aut...
