261 I Am Crazy with the Simulation

In a flash, three or four years passed like a fleeting dream.

Uchiha Kirin had devoted himself entirely to the evolution of his inner world. At long last, the Star Core had been completely devoured by his 〖Heaven-Reversing Devour〗, hidden deep within every corner of the world, becoming an inseparable part of it.

And at the same time, it became part of his strength!

From this, vein-like currents resembling dragon veins—but radiating an opposite kind of ...

260 I Am Crazy with the Simulation

The entire Hoshigakure came together to forge enchanted ninja tools, and with the addition of the mountain god's divine blessing, both Uchiha Kirin and the unborn mountain god profited immensely.

Even the Scythe of Death was nearly refined into a golden hue, and the mountain god's incubation progressed faster than expected. Within a few years, it was projected to manifest on its own.

When that time came, they might even gain some unique abilities related to forging and craftsmansh...

201 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

"Come on in."

After setting Pakura down, Kiyosuke took off his shoes and stepped inside the house.

"I'm back. Haku, Naruto?"

"Ah! Kiyosuke-san!"

Naruto came bouncing out, his eyes landing on the woman behind Kiyosuke. He looked puzzled for a second, then asked:

"Is that your wife?"

"No," Pakura said, blushing.

"Huh? No way? This is the first time Kiyosuke-san has brought home a girl who isn't Rin, Kurenai, or Anko!" Naruto said.

Pakura had heard...

200 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

After catching up with Hyūga Hiashi and the others, Kiyosuke brought Naruto back home.

Fortunately, Rin came by now and then to help clean. Otherwise, the house would've been buried under a thick layer of dust and completely unlivable.

He left Naruto to play in the courtyard while he tidied up two spare rooms—for Haku and Pakura, who would be staying with them soon.

Big houses really were convenient. So many rooms meant you could accommodate a lot of people. And when you ...

207 Starting from One Piece

Above the terrifying Thriller Bark Ship...

Ryuma's body was completely spent. After sustaining critical injuries from the Thunder's Susanoo, only his head remained, floating in midair with blue flames still burning at his neck.

The armor of Susanoo faded away, revealing—

The figure of the humanoid lightning contracted and shifted, transforming back into Kaito.

Kaito stood in silence, staring at Ryuma. That feeling of watching a once-great hero fade i...

206 Starting from One Piece

Though the soul flames in Ryoma's eyes now burned more fiercely, Kaito—wielding the Rinnegan—could see that he was already a spent force.

"Burning your soul to unleash greater power? That's even more extreme than the Eight Gates. But I wonder how strong it really is?"

Of course, Ryoma had no idea what Kaito meant by the "Eight Gates." All he wanted was to push his strength to the absolute limit.

And the path of the swordsman was often driven by the heart.

Having tw...

151 The Shimura Has Ice Release

Sarutobi Hiruzen unleashed the Water Dragon Bullet, disrupting the sealing formation Chiyo had set up, forcing her to get up and evade the next wave of attacks.

Fast hand seals, agile movements, mastery of various large-scale destructive ninjutsu, and an abundance of battle experience...

Even someone as seasoned as Chiyo couldn't gain the upper hand against Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Fortunately, reinforcements had arrived.

Golden sand suddenly surged from the ground, forming a...

150 The Shimura Has Ice Release

Standing on the rooftop of the Kazekage Building, feeling the yellow sand brushing against his face, Rasa frowned deeply.

Things had been going extremely smoothly. The death of Pakura had bought them peace with Kirigakure.

A large amount of supplies had already been transported to the front lines, and Sunagakure's most elite shinobi were now gathered around the Kikyo Pass region.

Konoha had just finished its war with the three great hidden villages. Right now, they were at t...

178 Scourge of the Ninja World

"Given the current situation, I still believe in taking the initiative. Once Iwagakure makes a move in the Land of Fields..."

"Kumogakure will be put in a passive position. This is a prime opportunity. As long as we drive Kumogakure back, they won't get another chance to intervene in this war."

Shirakumo firmly held to his opinion, and it made Gekko Chizan regard him with a bit more respect.

But unbeknownst to him, he was completely overestimating the man—Shirakumo was sim...

177 Scourge of the Ninja World

After listening to Gekko Chizan, Kakkō nodded.

"Alright, your intel is worth 30 million."

"Let's go, back to base!"

Now that he had this information, Kakkō needed to report to the Tsuchikage-sama immediately, and also dispatch intelligence operatives to investigate the Land of Fields. If it turned out to be true…

Then this was their best chance to strike at Kumogakure!

This kind of opportunity must not be missed.

Gekko Chizan took the money and didn't i...

015 Roger Pirates Apprentice

Of course, life at sea was long and drawn out.

Don't be fooled by how quickly Monkey D. Luffy traveled the world in just a few months. The Roger Pirates didn't have such a clearly defined goal. Most of their time was spent simply on the journey.

You could even say Roger was the true child of destiny. By sheer coincidence, he managed to gather everything needed to reach the Final Island.

As for unlucky pirates, some spent their entire lives without ever finding a single Poneg...

014 Roger Pirates Apprentice

One month after the Battle of Edd War ended,

The Roger Pirates enjoyed one of their rare periods of peace—except for one thing...

"Bang—"

"That guy Bullet is still as reckless as ever."

Charging headlong into battle despite knowing he can't win—that's the kind of stubborn foolishness only he could display.

Orin thought this phrase described Bullet perfectly right now.

What made that guy believe he, a kid under twenty, could defeat Rog...

013 Roger Pirates Apprentice

Among the things stored there was the Devil Fruit he had obtained three years ago—

A Paramecia-type — the 〖Warp-Warp Fruit〗.

In the original story, it was used by Van Augur, the sniper of the Blackbeard Pirates.

It could be said to be a Devil Fruit especially suited for snipers.

But for Orin, this was clearly more than just a sniper-supporting fruit.

When his strength could no longer make any progress, Orin might consider eating this space-related Devil F...

012 Roger Pirates Apprentice

As if to validate Orin's words, the very next second, a storm that could shake the heavens and the earth began brewing on the horizon!

"Nani!?"

Before the might of nature, even a so-called New World overlord with the power to destroy the world had to yield.

Countless ships manipulated by the Float-Float Fruit were swept away by the storm and the tsunami, and the one who had control of the skies—Golden Lion himself—was no exception.

Swept into the waves, his body po...

011 Roger Pirates Apprentice

Buggy desperately hoped Orin would come and save them, but unfortunately, Orin had his own matters to handle.

"Sorry, Buggy, I've got something else to deal with. You and Shanks hang in there a little longer."

Orin patted Buggy on the shoulder, then in a flash, cut his way out of the encirclement again.

"W-Wait... Damn it!!"

Buggy was on the verge of tears. All he could do was wear a bitter face and fight alongside Shanks as they retreated.

They weren't monsters ...

010 Roger Pirates Apprentice

"Enemy attack!!!"

Buggy looked up at the pirate fleet descending from the sky, shouting in panic. But his voice was quickly silenced.

A large hand landed on his head. It was Captain Roger.

"Calm down, Buggy. Get ready to fight!"

He looked up and saw Roger's ever-unshakable face.

"Shiki!!"

"Roger!!!"

Among the dozens of warships, at the prow of the lead ship adorned with a golden lion figurehead stood a golden-haired man.

"Now that's a real pirat...

009 Roger Pirates Apprentice

Year 1493 of the Sea Circle Calendar.

"Why is this guy named Oden wearing a diaper?"

The weather was clear, the scenery beautiful.

The Roger Pirates had just resupplied on a nearby island.

Orin returned from shopping with a newspaper. Shanks and Buggy were squeezed together reading it, and one piece of news caught Roger's attention.

It was about the 2nd Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, a new rising figure on the seas:

Samurai -...

008 Roger Pirates Apprentice

"It's starting, it's starting!!!"

"How long do you think Orin will last this time?"

"Last time it was one minute. This time... gotta be at least a minute and a half."

"I'm betting two minutes."

"Anyone wanna place a beT?"

"...Don't make me slap you, Petermoo!"

Maybe it was just boredom, but a group of rough-and-tumble guys aboard the Roger Pirates' ship were crowding around, excitedly watching a battle about to unfold.

Orin was dressed in a tight blac...

007 Roger Pirates Apprentice

"Throw a fake match? That's not really my style."

Orin's eyes flashed with disdain. He was a man who aspired to surpass Red-Haired Shanks, someone destined to stand at the top of the new era.

He wanted to be a man who would never be defeated!

Perhaps sensing Orin's resistance in his eyes, Petermoo pursed his lips helplessly.

After a moment, he squeezed out a line.

"I'll split the earnings with you fifty-fifty once it's done."

"You really do know how to read...

006 Roger Pirates Apprentice

After the battle —

In an unknown part of the New World, aboard the slightly scuffed Oro Jackson.

The sky after the rain felt especially fresh. As soon as the weather cleared, Roger began rallying everyone for a new round of partying.

As for the reason... well, any excuse would do.

So let's say—it's to celebrate once again shaking off Garp's pursuit!

"Party time!!!"

"OOHHHHHH!!!!!!"

As the captain raised his glass with a loud cheer...

005 Roger Pirates Apprentice

Orin closed his left eye and tried his best to steady his breathing. His Observation Haki locked tightly onto a tall figure among the many Marines.

His finger rested lightly on the trigger—then decisively pulled.

"Single-Shot Style: Fate Kill!!!"

Having always aspired to be as cool as those with dramatic Devil Fruit names, Orin would never allow his flair to be outdone—

Even if it was just a simple Haki-assisted bullet.

"Splurt—"

With a sound of flesh...

004 Roger Pirates Apprentice

In the days that followed, most of Orin's training shifted focus more and more toward physical conditioning.

Although he couldn't compare to those "two hundred times the effort" types of geniuses,

His sniping technique, swordsmanship, and physical combat all improved at twice the rate of someone like Shanks—a top-tier genius—so it wasn't an exaggeration to call him a monster.

That's why developing his physical strength and Haki as early as possible was more important tha...

003 Roger Pirates Apprentice

Hearing that voice, Orin, who had been sitting on the bed, was the first to spring up with excitement and rush out the door.

In contrast, Buggy looked bitter.

He really didn't like grueling training. After all, with so many powerful people on board, there was no way he'd be the main force when it came time to snatch treasure.

But seeing Orin and Shanks dashing toward the stern, not wanting to be left behind, he forced himself to stay composed and followed after them.

"...

002 Roger Pirates Apprentice

On the dock, many crew members were laughing at the ridiculous scene, including Roger, Rayleigh, Gaban, and the others.

"What the hell!?"

Even though Buggy had no idea where this brat suddenly popped out from or how he knew his name, it didn't stop him from showing his annoyance at the overly familiar attitude.

"Do I know you? You just walk up and go?"

Turning red with anger, Buggy mimicked Orin's smiling expression as he spoke, performing so vividly that Gaban couldn'...

001 Roger Pirates Apprentice

Full name: Starting as a Roger Pirates Apprentice

Synopsis: Throughout his life on the Grand Line, there’s no doubt that Orin’s growth was extraordinary.

But if we’re talking about the true turning point of fate, it all started with a single sentence he uttered as a child.

“Kid, why do you insist on boarding our ship?” Roger glared across the vast blue sea, asking the brat standing before him.

“Hahahahaha! Becoming a pi...

176 Scourge of the Ninja World

Kakkō received a reply from his Tsuchikage and quickly gathered close to a hundred million ryō from the outpost before heading outside.

His actions immediately drew a lot of attention.

Among them was Iwagakure's Jinchūriki—Rōshi.

"Kakkō, what are you doing with so much money?"

"Oh, Rōshi, I'm going to meet a bounty hunter for a deal. He brought information... and the corpse of Kumogakure's Troy."

Rōshi was momentarily stunned. A bounty hunter?

He f...

175 Scourge of the Ninja World

[Ding! Detected that due to the host's actions, Namikaze Minato fell into a disadvantageous position during his battle with A, losing an opportunity to display his talent. Special reward: taijutsu +2.]

While hurrying along the road, Gekko Chizan was momentarily stunned.

What's going on? Namikaze Minato is fighting A?

Wasn't Minato supposed to be on the battlefield in the Land of Grass? How did he end up at the Land of Hot Springs?

And from the looks of...

149 The Shimura Has Ice Release

The Kirigakure shinobi struggled to pull their feet out of the ice. Just as they were about to get a clear look at the person launching the attack, they felt something grab their legs again.

When they looked down, they were nearly scared stiff by the eerie sight before them.

Translucent, crystalline skeletons were staring up at them with hollow eye sockets, their sharp fingertips deeply embedded in the shinobi's protective gear.

In an instant, wails of agony rang out one aft...

148 The Shimura Has Ice Release

The current ruler of Kirigakure, the Third Mizukage, was an old man.

He had once followed the First Mizukage to the first Five Kage Summit, but those glorious days were long gone. Now, he was just an aged man with squinting eyes.

At this moment, he sat on the seat reserved only for the Mizukage, squinting as he carefully read the scroll in his hands.

Beside him, an elder of similar age stroked his bald head, his gaze fixed on a young man with pale blue hair in the room.

205 Starting from One Piece

Seeing Kaito's Susanoo blade, the zombie face of Shimotsuki Ryuma didn't show fear—instead, it lit up with delight.

"So you're a swordsman too!"

Kaito shook his head. He wasn't using a sword out of necessity—it was more out of respect. After all, in life, Ryuma had been a master swordsman on par with even Dracule Mihawk. It felt appropriate to honor him.

In truth, it was just for fun.

And since he had already summoned the Susanoo blade, Kaito decided to go all in. ...
