"The global power structure is clear—the Emperors who rule the New World!"

"A man who fought two Emperors alone! The uncrowned king who once glimpsed the One Piece!"

"The strongest of the next generation..."

"Today, we look back at legendary bounties over 4 billion..."

"Two right-hand men with ten-digit bounties. A flawless and despair-inducing crew!"

Under Morgans' hype, Orin's name—after two years—once again soared to the top of global attention.

Al...

"I'm not joking, I may not be a good person, but…"

"I guess I really am not a good person."

Gekko Chizan tried to defend himself, but when he thought about the way he'd always acted, he realized he had nothing in common with a good guy.

"You actually know that? Tsk tsk, how rare."

"I still remember someone coming to Ryūchi Cave back then, saying over and over, 'I don't need strength.' And now look at you."

"Calling me over every day to do some shady stuff. Tsk...

191 Scourge of the Ninja World

As the natural energy grew thicker,

The crimson hue belonging to Tagitsuhime began to spread. As the glow intensified, a lazy voice slowly echoed:

"Chizan brat, what are you calling me for?"

"Hmm? What is this thing? That's one massive turtle."

Tagitsuhime gradually manifested her form, and the moment she appeared, her gaze was immediately drawn to the enormous turtle before her.

The Coiling Serpent Technique was complete, and Tagitsuhime was already attached to ...

165 The Shimura Has Ice Release

Minato could be surprisingly romantic—he even brought souvenirs back for Kushina while away on official duty.

With a beautifully wrapped gift in hand, Takeshi walked shoulder to shoulder with Kakashi—who had unknowingly grown taller than him—along the streets of Konoha.

"Eh? Isn't that Takeshi? Feels like it's been ages since I last saw you. Drop by the shop when you have time!"

As they passed a dango shop, the shopkeeper lady caught sight of Takeshi while cleaning up ...

164 The Shimura Has Ice Release

Compared to when Takeshi had left, the scenery of Konoha hadn't changed much.

The most noticeable change was the addition of a new face carved into the Hokage Rock.

Takeshi loitered along the street for a while, still unsure how to face his old man when they met again, when a soft and sweet voice suddenly rang out behind him:

"Takeshi-oniisan?"

"Hmm?"

He instinctively responded, turned around, and saw a graceful-looking woman holding the hand of a child.

"I...

222 Starting from One Piece

When they saw Kaito's face clearly, both Cobra and Vivi's eyes went wide.

Vivi gasped, covering her mouth in shock.

"Those eyes... He's Admiral Shikiryū!"

Cobra instinctively nodded, then an expression of overwhelming joy spread across his face.

He didn't care at all that Kaito was sitting on the throne—because to him, a king was nothing compared to a Marine Admiral.

Even a Shichibukai could throw his whole kingdom into crisis—let alone a Marine Admiral whos...

221 Starting from One Piece

Grand Line, Alabasta Kingdom—

It hadn't rained here for nearly half a year. The air was so dry that just taking a breath left your mouth parched and tongue sticking to the roof of your mouth.

The citizens had no idea that this was all because Crocodile had been using "Dance Powder." During this time, Crocodile crafted his public persona as a "national hero" and subtly shifted the blame for the drought onto King Cobra.

At first, the people didn't believe it...

217 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

"Earth Release: Rock Collapse!"

As the Prajñā Group launched their jutsu attack, the rocks on the cliff shattered instantly and came crashing down from above.

"Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall!"

A wall sculpted with the head of a dog rose up and blocked the falling boulders. But seeing it made Kiyosuke pull a strange face as he muttered,

"You barely have any chakra, and you waste it carving a dog's head into the wall? What a waste."

...

Kakashi:

"Tha...

216 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

"The mission this time is to deliver the classified scroll and exchange it with the Prajñā Group from the Land of Woods."

Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke calmly to Kiyosuke.

Standing behind him were two Konoha Chūnin and an old man carrying a pot on his back.

This old man wasn't someone to underestimate—he had served under the Second, Third, and Fourth Hokage. With incredible survival skills and an unwavering Will of Fire, he had devoted his entire life to Konoha.

Though h...

275 I Am Crazy with the Simulation

To put it simply, Urashiki's analysis wasn't just accurate—it was extremely sound.

That's why, even before descending upon the Shinobi World, he had already traveled to the moon and sealed away the Ōtsutsuki Toneri.

However, what they didn't realize was that the Sage of Six Paths and his brother had already reached the level Urashiki estimated—over a thousand years ago.

Their thinking was far too simplistic. They believed that by eliminating Toneri, they had removed all...

274 I Am Crazy with the Simulation

Within the Shinobi World, everyone was immersed in the joy that followed the end of the war, savoring the hard-won peace and the relief of having survived such devastation.

Amidst the ruins, new villages and towns were being built. On the barren plains, people reclaimed and cultivated fertile lands. In the wake of the great battle, the first wave of newborns came into the world.

However, beneath the surface of peace, new schemes were already beginning to stir.

Some said it w...

"You should understand that without the backing of the world's most profitable industries, the World Government's finances would be in serious trouble."

Saint Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro's expression was grim as he spoke, unusually direct.

Yes!

Despite the seemingly noble image of the World Government, the meager Heavenly Tribute isn't even enough to support the extravagant, wasteful Celestial Dragons.

Let alone paying government officials, the Navy's military budget, resear...

107 Roger Pirates Apprentice

"Hey! Over here."

Sensing a news seagull flying ten thousand meters away, Orin casually waved his hand, and a newspaper appeared in his palm.

In the past, the seagull might have been startled and flapped its wings reflexively at the sudden situation.

But now, it was a newly trained model.

Not even a second of delay...

Salute!!!

It didn't even know which direction to salute in, so it went with a full 360-degree bow.

"Interesting."

Orin chuckled s...

138 Adopted by the Second Hokage!

(T/N: This chapter is about food, if you hate it, then skip it)

So tired… I feel completely drained...

Renya had just opened his eyes when he felt a deep fatigue throughout his body.

He didn't think much of it, assuming it was just physical exhaustion from being on the battlefield for too long.

After all, he had been stationed there for three months—feeling worn out was only natural.

After washing up, he left the room.

At that moment, Senju Tobirama hap...

137 Adopted by the Second Hokage!

Senju Tobirama's residence.

Renya had just returned home and placed the lunchbox into the kitchen.

At that moment, Senju Tobirama walked in with a bag in hand.

Hearing the noise, Renya was just about to head out to check when he saw Tobirama pull out a bottle of milk from the bag and explain:

"The milk at home expired. I bought a new one."

As he spoke, he placed the milk in the most noticeable spot in the kitchen.

Renya paused for a moment�...

273 I Am Crazy with the Simulation

The shattered world was being reforged.

But due to the shockwaves from that collapse, Uchiha Kirin's spirit was damaged, and he lost consciousness.

His body sank into the deepest part of the star's core.

Relying on his heavily modified and enhanced Breathing Art, he drew strength from within, constantly recovering himself. He used the immense gravity of the core to repeatedly compress his body and spirit, forging them into something denser and more resilient.

However, ...

272 I Am Crazy with the Simulation

Directly devouring the eyeball would mean suffering a brutal, foreign power in a short amount of time, just like Ōtsutsuki Urashiki.

How much of that power could ultimately be retained was unknown—there was even the risk of permanent cognitive damage.

As for surgical transplantation, while he could freely control his own cells, the Nine Tomoe Rinnegan was, after all, an imported product. Its effects might not even compare to the incomplete fruit energy that Kaguya had yet to fu...

215 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

Asuma's matter came to an end quickly, with his victory.

The Guardian Twelve had fallen apart, with only a few members left. The time was about right, so he decided to return.

Kiyosuke stood at the gates of Konoha, yawning.

Standing beside him was Kurenai, who smiled and said,

"It's really rare to see you up so early."

Over the years, Kurenai had blossomed into a beautiful woman.

Many had pursued her, but she had turned them all down.

Of course, from ...

214 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

Dealing with paperwork wasn't tiring at all—it was just annoying. One document after another, it felt like there was no end in sight, giving Kiyosuke a massive headache. He really wasn't cut out for clerical work. Forcing himself to keep at it was just torture.

Damn it, that old man figured out it was my handiwork and now he's coming after me. So petty.

He cursed silently in his heart, but still finished everything and went home. A few days later, Hiruzen Sarutobi called him in ...

220 Starting from One Piece

When Zephyr showed up with his family in front of Sengoku and the others, their reaction was even more exaggerated than Kizaru's.

Garp's eyes went wide, and he hunched over as two strands of snot—one long, one short—dripped from his nostrils, making both Justice and Lisa burst into laughter.

Especially after learning that it was Kaito who had resurrected Zephyr's family, the room practically exploded.

Tsuru looked at Kaito in astonishment. But as the Grand Strategist, he...

219 Starting from One Piece

Kizaru turned to look at Kaito, hesitating as he asked,

"Kaito... was that your doing?"

Kaito nodded. Just as he was about to speak, a few familiar signals rippled through the Heavenly net—someone was heading this way.

It was Sengoku and the others. Zephyr's wailing earlier had been far too loud, loud enough that all his old friends assumed something terrible had happened.

But Kaito had no intention of letting anyone disturb Zephyr's reunion with his family.

He...

163 The Shimura Has Ice Release

Where did Minato, who upset Kushina, run off to?

Under Sakumo's arrangement, he took Kakashi and headed to Beichū Town.

Although Hiruzen had confidently assured them that he would handle the Fujiwara clan's problem himself, it was obvious that Sakumo had his own ideas.

At this moment, Beichū Town was bustling with activity.

Danzo denied any involvement in the extermination of the Fujiwara clan. Taking his word—for now—Hiruzen sent his eldest son, an Anbu squad le...

162 The Shimura Has Ice Release

While Setsuna was raging helplessly, Jiraiya was inspecting Hanzō's corpse with his disciples.

The corpse of Hanzō, the invisible slash wound—everything pointed to an unusual black hand orchestrating events from the shadows.

Who exactly was behind this? And what was their goal?

Jiraiya glanced at Nagato beside him and a vague suspicion began to form in his heart.

Seriously, he had only wanted to use the post-war lull to gather material and finish the final chapter ...

190 Scourge of the Ninja World

Chōmei had already been flying over the sea for two days. Although he wasn't tired at all, the boredom was getting to him.

"Chizan... Chizan..."

"So boring..."

You couldn't really blame Chōmei for being this bored. Looking out over the ocean, there was absolutely nothing to see.

Just seawater, and more seawater. Suddenly, Chōmei found himself admiring Isobu—how could that guy stay in the sea for years on end?

What's the point of all this ocean...

Gekko...

189 Scourge of the Ninja World

Gekko Chizan wasn't in a hurry to leave the mountain.

After all, with the help of the Insect Eye, he had seen that there were quite a few Kumogakure ninja stationed around the peak.

"Shadow Clone Jutsu."

This time, there was only one clone. Gekko Chizan had the clone watch over Yugito Nii while leaving behind a jutsu formula.

Then, he immediately flew away from Kumogakure.

He needed to take Yugito to the seaside, and at the same time, avoid Kumogakure's guards. T...

188 Scourge of the Ninja World

Saruobi Hiruzen left, storming away from the Root base, filled with rage.

Danzo stared at Hiruzen's departing figure, his expression dark and grim. Without delay, he hurried toward Orochimaru's laboratory.

"Orochimaru, how is the experiment progressing?"

Pushing open the lab door, Danzo's face immediately shifted to disbelief.

All the equipment in the lab had been destroyed and was still smoking.

Orochimaru stood calmly to the side, holding a soaked child in his ...

187 Scourge of the Ninja World

Tsunade finished reading the letter and showed a trace of shock.

"This little bastard actually pulled off something big."

Then she turned toward Dodai with a look full of disdain.

"Hmph, is the Land of Fields really making you that desperate?"

"Sending a Jinchūriki to investigate... bold move. No wonder I haven't seen the Eight-Tails' Jinchūriki anywhere."

Tsunade's words made a sense of foreboding rise in Dodai's heart.

"Dodai, your plan has completely f...

161 The Shimura Has Ice Release

"That guy's gone?"

Takeshi poked his little head out from behind the broken doorframe, scanning the surroundings but finding no trace of the enforcer.

"Yeah, he's gone."

Ignoring Takeshi's curious gaze, Kakuzu briskly walked past him, picked up the ledger, and started admiring it.

He brought his nose close to the book, savoring the scent of ink—it was almost heavenly for Kakuzu.

His boss really had given him a fantastic job. Years of hard work hunting down boun...

160 The Shimura Has Ice Release

Even though he was no longer the Hokage, Hiruzen was still followed by Anbu loyal to him.

As he quickly arrived at the entrance of the Root base, Hiruzen was unsurprisingly stopped by the Root ninja guarding the gate.

"I want to see Danzō."

Hiruzen's voice was loud and clear, and from his tone, the Root ninja immediately sensed the visitor's ill intent.

At that moment, Danzō was instructing Asuma in Wind Release training. Upon receiving the message, his first reactio...

218 Starting from One Piece

A dazzling radiance burst forth from Kaito's Rinnegan as he waved his hand. Two coffins sprang open, revealing a large and a small skeleton inside.

Then, he clapped his hands together and formed the "Snake" seal, chanting in a deep voice,

"Yomi Rebirth!"

...

In the underworld of Yomi, a swirling black vortex appeared high in the sky.

Two yellow, cloud-like souls were suddenly pulled from a vast sea of spirits, as if yanked by an unseen force, and floated up towar...
