Black Zetsu was completely lost.
He had no idea what to do anymore.
The moment an Ōtsutsuki appeared, a treacherous thought even flashed through his mind.
"Maybe... it's actually safer for Mother to stay sealed?"
At least while she was sealed, she was safe.
But the problem was, his very existence—the mission of his birth—was to bring Mother back. If he did nothing now, wouldn’t that be a betrayal of his purpose?
Besides, after all these years of effo...

Robert’s boar hunt had barely gotten underway when it fell into disarray. The party of more than a hundred riders had just happily ridden out the Hunter’s Gate, not even an hour past, when they were overtaken by a group of horsemen galloping from behind—sent from Winterfell.
It was like the weather at Shipbreaker Bay: clear skies one moment, dark clouds and heavy rain the next.
And now, inside the Great Keep of Winterfell, the atmosphere was like that of a lone sailboat drif...

Everything that had just happened seemed to occur in a flash, the entire sequence taking place in the span of a single instant.
By the time Jaime came to his senses and looked up, he realized that the longsword he had just swung toward Kal’s neck had—at some unknown moment—been parried by a dagger in Kal’s hand.
That shrill, screeching sound from earlier had come from the blades of the two weapons dragging and grinding against one another.
It turned out that, in that...

“There’s really no other way out, is there?!” the Kingslayer clenched his jaw and said again, biting out the words.
He looked into Kal’s eyes, his own filled with a desperate plea. “I want to trade my life in exchange for Cersei’s.”
But all he received in return was Kal’s cold, unwavering stare.
“Lannister—your blood is no more noble than anyone else’s.”
“You murdered Eddard Stark’s child—the heir of Winterfell—simply because he uncovere...

Cersei and Jaime exchanged a look, and in each other’s eyes, they saw the same thing.
And at that moment, they both realized—there was no talking their way out of this anymore.
A heavy silence fell over them, pressing on their chests like lead.
Watching the silent exchange between the two, Kal suddenly felt his interest fading.
Thinking of that old man—no matter what—Kal still felt a ripple in his heart.
And so, after saying his piece, all he left them wi...

Before Hiruzen could even speak, it was Koharu who stepped forward first.

The shadow clone of "Ōtsutsuki Genshiki"—the same one now on everyone’s mind, from Hiruzen to Jiraiya—was currently with Naruto.

The wind still howled through the ruined, crumbling tower chamber.
But for the Kingslayer—kneeling on one knee—cold sweat had already soaked his back the moment he dared let himself relax even slightly.
Because just now, he had come within a hair’s breadth of dying beneath the sword of Kal Stone.
And that had been despite all his caution.
Thinking back on it, Jaime Lannister couldn’t bear to imagine what might have happened had he underestimated the bastard bef...

“That guy…”
