After realizing it was her, Logan’s previous look of total indifference had been instinctively brushed aside by Aki’s younger sister.
A Rathalos this exceptional—of course he was aloof. That was exactly how he should be.
There was no way a monster like him would ever be short of mates. Barring some rare accident, any Rathian would be dying to have him.
And more importantly, his partner was Aki. In her eyes, Aki was something else entirely—powerful, special, flawless....

“I admit it, Sensei… I’ve wronged Naruto.”
A heavy weight settled on Hiruzen’s chest as he confessed words that hardly befitted the dignity of a Hokage:
“I deprived Naruto of the treatment he deserved as the Fourth Hokage’s orphan. I treated him like just another jinchūriki—testing his fitness as a vessel by forcing him to grow up in hardship.”
“Part of it was my own inadequacy. I feared the Nine-Tails breaking loose… feared public backlash. But part o...

He has used both psychological and physical poisons to control 45 million Korhalans, enslaving the tormented people of Korhal and forcing them to join his rebel force—an army armed with pamphlets and drugs.”

“Uzumaki Naruto,” Uchiha Keizumi said quietly, “when endless malice, open isolation, and whispered curses behind your back all come crashing down on you—can you feel that despair and helplessness?”
Naruto nodded almost instinctively.
Keizumi asked, “Do you think what they did was right?”
Naruto bit his lip. “It wasn’t right…”
How could it ever be right to bully and isolate a child like that?
Naruto knew exactly how that felt.

Along the way, not a single monster of Velen had crossed his path. No drowners, no ghouls, no water hags. All had avoided him.

“Hey, Naruto… you’re not with the Hokage today?”
The owner of Ichiraku Ramen, Teuchi, smiled warmly at the boy.
He was one of the rare few in Konoha who didn’t look at Naruto with suspicion or disdain.
But almost immediately, Teuchi noticed something unusual about Naruto’s demeanor today.
Whenever the boy came here with the Third Hokage, he always looked so cheerful, full of life.
But today, the boy seemed unusually tense.<...

Kakashi and Jiraiya were still awake, waiting for Kitagawa Gen’s return. But the moment they felt that chakra shockwave, their eyes went wide.
Even Tsunade, roused by the sudden eruption, came stomping out of her tent in irritation.

It took him that long to fully digest the weight of the news.

Short and still quite skinny, Naruto plopped down on the front steps of someone’s house, gasping for breath.
He cautiously looked around. Aside from a few villagers casting odd glances his way, there didn’t seem to be anyone suspicious in sight.
“Phew…”
“Guess I’ll take a quick break…”
Clearly, in Naruto’s mind, the only 'suspicious person' was Uchiha Keizumi!
But in the very next second—

It was Sarutobi Hiruzen, accompanied by a group of ANBU shinobi.
In truth, Hiruzen had already snapped out of his shock five minutes earlier.

After all, he had only brought two ANBU guards with him.

Until he heard a clack from behind.
