Uchiha Fugaku's wedding was held with great pomp.
After all, the Uchiha clan was still the strongest clan in Konoha.
All the major clans sent people to offer their congratulations. Even the Third Hokage sent someone with a gift. Of course, not the Shimura clan—Danzō's attitude toward the Uchiha was completely inherited from the Second Hokage. All he lacked was to say: "Wretched Uchiha, I'll finish off all your wedding food myself!"
Hah, that scene alone would've been a tr...

〖Year Twenty-Six〗
You activate Heavenly Ear and immediately become aware that the Sage of Six Paths is in the Pure Land, working to gather the powers of Indra and Asura from Naruto and Sasuke. Using the faith of the living and the dead, he's trying to forge a fruit from their chakra.
You also sense that deep within the Dragon Vein, the Slug Sage is still in the process of merging, constantly digesting the bodies of those who perished in the flames of war—doi...

[Year 23]
After a long slumber, you awaken once more within the Dragon Vein—only to find that the once-surging torrents have dwindled into a mere trickle. Who knows when it will return to its former glory...
Thankfully, your physical body has successfully undergone yet another transformation. Your massive draconic form now nearly fills the entire Dragon Vein passage, and your horns have grown by a few inches.
The bloodline of the flood dragon within you se...

On the plaza, tens of thousands of fishmen from the New Fishman Pirates stood gathered. The rest—curious onlookers—had begun to waver under Hody Jones' impassioned speech.
It wasn't entirely unexpected. With the frequent human slave trafficking incidents on Fishman Island, it was impossible for the locals to harbor no resentment toward humans.
However, King Neptune had once sworn with absolute certainty that after Admiral Shikiryū arrived, Fishman Island would be reborn.

At Hody Jones' repeated urging, the fishman underling finally brought him the deadly ES drug.
This drug could grant a massive power boost—but at an equally terrifying cost: it rapidly consumed the user's lifespan.
And the degeneration wasn't subtle—it was visible to the naked eye. Compared to Luffy's Gear Second and Third drawbacks, the ES drug's effects were instant and far more drastic.
Hody Jones stared at the red-and-black capsule in the underling's hand, a twisted g...

The matter of the Uchiha was temporarily set aside, but as for how Takeshi had been rescued, the currently evasive Raku seemed reluctant to let Takeshi know.
Takeshi didn't make a fuss—he could always ask Obito and the others later.
Watching Raku leave the tent, Takeshi sat on the bed and rotated his shoulder a bit, preparing to welcome his teammates.
But then...
Where is everyone?
Where are my teammates?
They were crowding around me just a while ago—wh...

And this brat in front of her had actually volunteered to become a Jinchūriki...
Well, it was too late now. There was no way he could be separated from it anymore. A Jinchūriki ...

Dusk fell like gauze, and the misty steam mingled with the sulfuric scent unique to hot springs, drifting softly through the air.
Renya and Hashirama, both dressed in yukata provided by the hot spring inn, stepped slowly out of the bath, their wooden clogs clacking lightly against the floor.
In Hashirama's arms, a scruffy stray cat with mottled fur had curled into a fluffy ball, purring contentedly and occasionally rubbing its head against his large palm.

"Renya, what's wrong?"
Senju Hashirama noticed that Renya had suddenly stopped walking and couldn't help but feel curious.
"Hashirama-san, I need to talk to Kakuzu about something," Renya said.
"Then go. Just don't get into a fight with him again."
"Mm, I know..."
Hashirama watched Renya walk off and muttered to himself, "I wonder what little Renya is up to this time?"
The reason Renya went back to find Kakuzu was because he suddenly remembered that the guy...

Why is my blood black?
A flicker of confusion flashed across Kakuzu's eyes, but he quickly reacted.
No—that blade is poisoned!
He looked in disbelief at the boy standing before him, sword in hand. The boy was watching him with a half-smile that sent chills down his spine.
"Oh? Seems like the gap between us just closed a little."
"You... you're despicable!" Kakuzu snarled in fury.
He prided himself as a genius from Takigakure, having experienced countless ...

Kakuzu stood frozen in place, his legs trembling uncontrollably.
He hadn't even made a move, yet his body refused to obey him.
This was the legendary God of Shinobi!
He had a premonition that if he so much as tried to attack, he would surely die!
Renya and Hashirama naturally noticed Kakuzu standing not far away, staring blankly.
Renya instinctively gripped the hilt of his sword. Just by looking at Kakuzu's outfit, he could tell that the man was a shinobi.

"Renya, do you think what I did was wrong?"
On the road, Senju Hashirama suddenly asked.
Back when he decided to spare the higher-ups of Takigakure, he'd noticed Renya's conflicted expression—as if he didn't agree with the decision.
Renya hesitated for a moment after hearing this, then finally nodded... and shook his head again.
"Hashirama-san, as long as you're happy, that's all that matters."
"Just like that?" Hashirama raised a brow, his wide sleeves flappin...

"Renya-kun, are we there yet?"
On the road to Yugakure, Senju Hashirama asked with a puzzled expression.
He had a strong feeling that Renya had taken the wrong path.
Logically speaking, Yugakure shouldn't be this far away...
"Renya-kun, are you sure we're not lost?" Hashirama couldn't help but ask.
Renya held a map of the ninja world he bought from a vendor, wearing an overly confident expression.

These words completely overturned Renya's perception of Senju Hashirama.
For the longest time, Renya had always felt that Senju Hashirama's obsession with peace in the shinobi world was almost childishly naive.
In a world full of killing and betrayal, oaths of peace were nothing more than illusions.
What Hashirama called the "Will of Fire" had always seemed to him a hopelessly idealistic fantasy.
But the words Hashirama had just spoken shattered that belief entirely.

At the gates of Konoha, Senju Tobirama couldn't help but remind him.
In truth, he didn't want his brother to leave the village at all.
What if something happened to him?
But he couldn't go against Hashirama's firm insistence, and in the end, he had no choice but to agree.
Even though he knew that in the current shinobi world, there was hardly anyone who could pose a threat to his brother, he still couldn't shake th...

In the Hokage's office, Renya placed the lunchbox on the desk.

He figured he might as well finish reading the files before eating…
Renya showed no intention of leaving and voiced the question in his mind:

He really couldn't understand. Isn't this exactly what Sha...

At the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind, a Sunagakure jōnin stared at the three people before him, shouting hoarsely.

Any enemy who posed a threat had to be eliminated completely.

Following that, Renya and his team were not assigned any missions. Even the Hiruzen Squad, which had just returned from a mission, was called over.
Senju Tobirama examined each of them in turn, evaluating the results of their training over the past year. He was quite satisfied with their progress and believed that within two years, they would all reach the level of jōnin.
By then, Konoha would have a group of elite shinobi personally trained by him—elite forces who inherited th...

Early the next morning.
Renya climbed out of bed, his entire body sore and aching.
He moved his neck with difficulty and muttered, "Damn old man, you really didn't hold back…"
He didn't think much of it and subconsciously assumed it was the aftermath of yesterday's battle.
But when these words reached Senju Tobirama's ears, they took on an entirely different meaning…
He had come to Renya's door to wake him up to make breakfast, but just as he...

His eyes caught the faint glint of a kunai peeking from Tobirama's sleeve, and he sighed inwardly:
Looks like this old guy isn't here for a friendly spar...

Eyes closed. Then open.
What entered his sight was a sea of green.
Judging by the shape, it was the peak of a tent.
Shifting his gaze downward, he saw one white and one black head resting on his left arm.
From their hairstyles and hair colors, Takeshi could tell it was Kakashi and Obito.
Looking farther into the distance, he could make out three small figures curled up in a corner, resting with their heads down. All familiar faces.
