Mufasa floated beside Sasuke.
Sasuke stopped in his tracks, his eyes narrowing as he looked at Mufasa warily.
Mufasa smiled slightly. "Looks like you're all healed up."
Sasuke gave a short nod. "Thank you for your help..."
Mufasa chuckled. "Just a 'thank you' for saving your life? That seems a bit cheap."
Sasuke hesitated. He was still young and had no money to offer. "I will repay you in the future."
"Why wait?" Mufasa leaned ...
In the ninth round, Choji and one of Sakura’s teammates ended in a tie after a hard-fought battle, leaving Kurenai slightly regretful. Other than Shino, two of her students failed to advance to the [third exam].
The next round was also the final round! While it wasn’t necessarily the strongest fight of the tournament, it was the one that everyone wanted to see.
Because one of the fighters was Tatsuya! Ever since the [Chunin Exam] started, he had drawn the attention of many.<...
On the playing field, Neji stood across from Hinata, his expression unreadable. His voice was calm, almost indifferent as he spoke.
“I didn’t expect my opponent to be you, Hinata.”
“Brother Neji...” Hinata murmured, her fists clenching slightly.
Seeing the names displayed on the board and hearing their exchange, Naruto's eyes widened in realization.
“Wait a minute... they're cousins?”
Sakura, standing beside him, nodded. “They both come from ...
[T/N: Bonus chapter for today. Thanks for supporting me guys, I mean it. That's why starting next week, instead of advance 20 chapters, the patreon will have +25 chapters instead. Y'all deserved it. Have a good read everyone!]
_______________
The day after the shop was set up, the Sand Ninja Trade Fair officially began.
To ensure maximum exposure and success, Mufasa invested heavily in promotion. He rented an open space i...
The meeting resumed smoothly. Surprisingly, Danzo Shimura was nowhere to be seen—perhaps he finally realized that it was best to stay out of this one.
With the recent attack by Uchiha Itachi and Kisame Hoshigaki, the Konoha elders had a stark realization: besides dealing with tensions from the Cloud and Stone villages, they now had to worry about threats from rogue shinobi organizations as well. It was clear that unnecessary conflicts had to be set aside.
As a result, Mufasa's...
Tsunade unrolled the map of Konoha Village and spread it across the table.
Mufasa leaned over, tapping a spot near the Naka River. "Right here. It's where we're currently camped."
Tsunade frowned. "You think this place is good?"
Mufasa nodded. "It's perfect. Great spot for business."
Tsunade eyed him suspiciously. The location was on the outskirts of Konoha, with no buildings nearby. In the past, this area had been home to the Uchiha clan before their downfall.
...
The qualifier venue.
At this time, all the candidates who passed the [Second Test] had arrived, along with the examiners from the first two sessions.
Even the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, was present in person! A tense silence filled the room before a voice finally broke it.
"Next, I would like the Third Hokage to explain the details regarding the [Third Test] qualifiers," Anko Mitarashi announced. "Lord Hokage, please!"
As Anko’s words faded, all eyes turned ...
The crackling spear of lightning shot through the air, streaking toward an empty space above Mufasa’s shoulder.
A sharp scream cut through the battlefield.
From thin air, Danzo Shimura tumbled down, the lightning spear embedded in his chest. His body hit the ground with a dull thud, kicking up dust.
Another Sharingan eye sealed shut.
In less than three minutes, ten lives had been reduced to eight.
Lying on the ground, Danzo gritted his teeth, his heart pou...
Danzo Shimura was taken aback by Mufasa’s sharp gaze.
Fortunately for him, most of his face was hidden beneath his bandages, concealing any trace of surprise. He refused to let himself be rattled by a younger man, even if that man was a Kage. His pride wouldn’t allow it.
Scoffing, he fired back. "Kazekage, are you ignorant of history? Sand Village has been the weakest of the Great Villages since its founding. If your people have misplaced their history books, I can gladly pr...
When Tatsuya, Naruto, and Sasuke arrived at the [Central Tower], they found it eerily quiet. Aside from the examiner standing at the entrance, there wasn’t a single other candidate in sight.
In other words, they were the first to arrive!
The examiner glanced at his watch and blinked in surprise. "One hour and three minutes… That’s… unbelievable."
Tatsuya raised an eyebrow. "What’s the fastest time on record?"
"Four hours," the examiner muttered, still pro...
Looking up at the sky, Sasuke and Naruto were momentarily stunned by the sheer magnitude of the massive, multicolored hammer forming above them.
Hidden beneath the earth, the three Amegakure Genin were in complete shock. None of them had expected a mere Genin to wield such an overwhelming ninjutsu.
"Kagari.. what is he trying to do?" Oboro muttered, his voice laced with unease.
Kagari stared at the glowing hammer and murmured, "He's gonna fucking squash all of our clones,...
Hey guys! Thanks for supporting me! I wanna ask which of the works here are you reading.
2025-03-02 04:21:58 +0000 UTC View PostUchiha Itachi stared at Mufasa with his blood-red Sharingan spinning.
"Who are you?" he asked, his voice steady but edged with suspicion.
"Why do you do these things?"
"What is your purpose?"
Itachi had joined the Anbu at just 11 years old. By 13, he had become a captain in Konoha’s Black Ops division. Yet now, standing before Mufasa, he felt something unfamiliar creeping in—uncertainty.
Mufasa smiled lightly, almost amused. "Relax. I’m actually a good...
Shizune stood outside the Hokage office, her brow furrowing as she heard the strange voices coming from within. What in the world were those two doing? Curiosity got the better of her, and she carefully slid open a small gap in the paper door, peering inside.
Her eyes widened in shock.
Tsunade and Mufasa sat shoulder to shoulder, engaged in a drunken contest of endurance. They punched each other’s arms and took a drink every time one of them lost. From the way they were carryi...
Like Jiraiya and Naruto, Kakashi was taken aback by the drastic changes in the Sand Village. The once barren and harsh desert landscape was now evolving, with towering buildings rising behind the Kazekage's office, signaling growth and modernization.
After meeting with Akimichi Chōza, Nara Shikaku, and Yamanaka Inoichi, Kakashi was summoned by Mufasa. Led by Baki, he made his way to the Kazekage Building, which, like the Hokage’s office, was constructed against the mountainside. How...
Tsunade rubbed her temples, sighing. "This Mufasa is really a headache."
"Let's talk about it," she continued, glancing at the gathered council members. "Do we agree to his proposal?"
"There’s nothing wrong with the 'One Country, One Village' policy. We can sign the contract," said Danzo unexpectedly. It was rare for him to support anything related to Mufasa, but here he was, speaking first.
Danzo had always been a hawk, someone who valued strength above all else. Deep ...
Let's say that it's because of longevity.
But does it really have anything to do with longevity?
Naruto didn’t just master Sage Jutsu at a young age—he thrived in it.
Let’s talk about the environment.
The ninja world is vast, filled with diverse natural landscapes. The towering mountains and flowing waters of Mount Myoboku, the damp and shadowy depths of Ryuchi Cave—natural energy is everywhere.
As a shinobi, it seems odd to rely solely on chakra whi...
Naruto spent the entire afternoon at the orphanage, helping out with the children. By the time he returned to the hotel, exhaustion overtook him, and he collapsed onto the bed.
His chakra was still sealed.
All he had left to rely on was his physical strength.
Jiraiya sat nearby, watching him with a mix of concern and curiosity. After a moment, he finally asked, "What's wrong with you? Did something happen at the orphanage? Are you injured?"
Naruto let out a deep si...
Naruto squinted at the distant machinery. "Is that a giraffe?"
Baki let out a dry chuckle. "That’s an oil drilling rig."
Jiraiya and Naruto stared, eyes wide, as rows of massive drilling machines stood tall against the desert backdrop. The sight was unlike anything they had ever seen in Konoha—or anywhere else. The sheer scale of the operation was overwhelming. The closer they got, the more awe-inspiring it became.
Jiraiya and Naruto finally spotted Kazekage Mufasa, s...
Mufasa and Orochimaru stood on the scaffolding of a towering construction site behind the Kazekage's office.
The structure beneath them was still in its early stages—steel frames forming the skeleton of what would one day be the tallest building in the Hidden Sand Village. This would be the new Kazekage’s Tower, a command center for the entire village.
Though incomplete, the height was already enough to provide a sweeping view of the village below.
From their vantage ...
Jiraiya and Naruto rode on a sleek maglev scooter, following Onpu toward Sand Ninja Village. Compared to trudging through the desert, this mode of travel was a luxury.
"Pervy Sage, look! Another one of those big trucks!" Naruto exclaimed, brimming with energy even after nightfall.
Jiraiya turned his head, following Naruto’s excited gaze. Sure enough, a massive maglev truck hovered over the sand, its wheels barely touching the surface. It was different from the crude sandworm-r...
Sand Ninja Village.
Faraday Industrial Factory.
No.
It had been renamed Faraday Industrial Park.
After Mufasa became Kazekage, he took control of the village’s finances and launched drastic reforms—expanding the park, initiating large-scale construction projects, and transforming the village from the ground up. Everyone in Sand Ninja Village was mobilized, dedicating themselves to its reconstruction.
If Rasa were to be reincarnated now, he would hardly r...
Jiraiya and Naruto set out on their journey to Sunagakure, the Village Hidden in the Sand, deep in the Land of Wind. Their mission was clear, but the road ahead was anything but easy.
After two grueling days of travel, they reached the infamous Demon Desert, an unforgiving wasteland of scorching heat and endless dunes. Sunagakure lay at its heart, a hidden sanctuary amid the shifting sands.
Jiraiya wiped the sweat from his brow. "Let’s keep moving, Naruto."
The intense ...
Mufasa’s Faraday Industries was well known by everyone in the village.
Every ninja in Sand Village used Faraday-brand gear. It had become a household name.
Sajō frowned slightly. "My lord, are you planning to expand sales in the Land of Wind?"
Mufasa shook his head. "Not just expand—monopolize. Every ninja tool from other countries and any competing factories in the Land of Wind will be removed."
His words carried a firm resolve.
"At the same time, we w...
The two sides stood face to face, tension hanging in the air as the negotiations reached their conclusion.
Mufasa recalled Mechanical Godzilla, its massive form retreating from the battlefield.
Before the valley, both parties prepared for the exchange.
The Konoha shinobi watched as Akimichi Choza, Nara Shikaku, and Yamanaka Inoichi bound themselves, willingly offering themselves as prisoners of war.
On the other side, the Sand shinobi released Naruto, Sasuke, and S...
Mufasa unleashed a devastating force, his raw power shaking the battlefield.
Choza Akimichi, Shikaku Nara, and Inoichi Yamanaka couldn't shake the eerie feeling that this moment mirrored the night when Nine-Tailed Demon Fox were unleashed and wreaked havoc within their village.
Above them, the colossal form of Mechanical Godzilla loomed, its energy cannon on par with even the destructive power of the Nine-Tails’ Tailed Beast Bomb.
Everyone could read the tension in each...
A heavy kick struck Mufasa's shoulder, but it felt like hitting solid steel.
The impact rippled through his muscles before fading into nothing. He barely reacted—just a faint shiver, nothing more.
This time, the attack carried even more power.
It felt better than before.
Mufasa smirked. "Well, Guy-san, keep going."
"Leaf Strong Whirlwind!" Guy roared, launching into a fierce spinning kick.
Two tons of force.
Enhanced with chakra.
And y...
The first to arrive were the remnants led by Baki.
Baki approached Mufasa with a deep bow. "Mufasa-sama, the others are arriving one by one."
With the Kazekage gone, the Sand ninja had no true leader. They naturally turned to the strongest among them.
Mufasa, standing tall, took in the sight of the war-weary soldiers. He nodded, satisfied. "You’ve done well. Rest now, and leave the rest to me."
The tension in the air eased. His composure reassured the defeated wa...
Orochimaru swallowed the mechanical arm into his stomach with a flick of his long tongue. He was always cautious. Before using it himself, he needed someone else to test it first.
Mufasa didn’t mind. Trust took time to build, and Orochimaru would eventually understand that he was a reliable boss.
“Alright, I think you understand my expectations now. I’ll contact you once I’m done with my current business.” Mufasa’s voice was calm but firm. “I assume you’re eager ...
Jirobo could absorb an enemy’s chakra, while Ukon had the ability to destroy a body from the inside out. With one attacking externally and the other internally, Mufasa was undoubtedly facing death.
Just as Mufasa was enjoying pushing everyone away with his bootleg Shinra Tensei, Jirobo suddenly seized his left shoulder with both hands.
Jirobo was already a formidable ninja, but after activating his curse mark, his strength increased exponentially. Right now, he carried the for...
