020 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

"The hell... Is this seriously Ryūchi? I can't even find an entrance! Is Boruto really supposed to make it here?" Kiyosuke muttered to himself.

He hadn't seen much of the sequel series with the blond-haired brat—just heard bits and pieces.

Why didn't he watch it?

Because it was too damn hype! He was afraid he'd get so excited his brain would explode!

He came to a stop. In front of him were a series of footprints. Looking closely, they were his own. In other words, h...

019 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

"Sounds like your mission was quite the roller coaster, Kiyosuke-kun."

Inside the lab, Orochimaru chuckled as he listened to Kiyosuke recount the events. Normally, C-rank missions didn't come with that much drama.

"Who knows?" Kiyosuke replied. "By the way, Orochimaru-sama, why did the people from Kirigakure ambush us?"

Orochimaru didn't avoid the question.

"Kirigakure wanted intelligence on the village. You just happened to be in the wrong place at the right time. The...

018 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

The four who had passed out earlier were now full of regret—their purchases had all been stolen.

Only Kiyosuke had quietly made a profit. Still, he didn't breathe a word to Kurenai, Shinku, or the others about Tsunade being right here.

First, telling them wouldn't help. Even though Minato was Jiraiya's student, he couldn't convince Tsunade to return to the village. If anything, he might get punched in the face.

Second, if he told them where Tsunade was and they went to see...

017 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

With Pakkun's keen sense of smell leading the way, Minato and Kiyosuke quickly found Kakashi.

"Minato-sensei."

Kakashi nodded when he saw them. He crouched atop a tree, peering through the gaps in the leaves at the scene below.

Obito and the other three were tied to wooden stakes, all unconscious. And they weren't the only ones—there was a whole group of children trapped alongside them. Surrounding them stood several robed figures in black cloaks, chanting strange incantat...

016 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

Bang!

"That must've hurt!"

A fist slammed down on his head, raising a big bump. The Transformation Jutsu instantly dissolved under the impact. Kiyosuke clutched his head, squatting on the ground in pain.

"Ow, ow, ow! I think my skull just cracked open!"

"A ninja, huh?" Tsunade eyed the Konoha forehead protector on his head.

"And a Konoha brat at that. Gambling at your age? Clearly you haven't had a proper education. Who's your teacher?"

"It's Orochimaru-sen...

015 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

In the hot spring, Kiyosuke, Asuma, Obito, and Kakashi all had towels draped over their heads, soaking in the warmth. Obito let out a long, lazy sigh.

"Man, this is the life... Compared to the ones in Konoha, the hot springs here in the Land of Hot Water are way better!"

Wisps of steam curled up from the water, creating a dreamlike haze. As the four of them relaxed, Kiyosuke turned to Kakashi, who had wrapped a towel around his face.

"Kakashi, why are you still covering your...

014 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

With the rise of the shinobi villages, samurai began to gradually fade from the stage of history. Once the primary military force, they were replaced by ninja, who could serve the same function far more efficiently. Nowadays, aside from a few powerful nations and nobles who still maintain samurai retainers, only the Land of Iron remains a country ruled by samurai.

As shinobi took over the role of military power, a great many samurai lost their livelihoods. Their resentment toward ninja ...

013 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

The protagonist always makes a late entrance!

Obito firmly believed in this saying—but that didn't mean he wanted to show up late and enter last. That wouldn't be cool at all!

On the way to the meeting point, he'd come across an old man who had fallen in the street. After rushing him to Konoha Hospital and calling for a doctor and some nurses, he immediately bolted for the village gates.

Sure enough, Kakashi was already there, looking thoroughly annoyed.

Seriously, w...

012 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

"Eh? Another C-rank mission? Don't tell me we're killing bandits again?"

Yuhi Shinku had just picked up a C-rank mission, making the three of them worry it was going to be another bloody one.

"No, not this time. It's an escort mission. A wealthy merchant from the Land of Fire has hired us to escort him to the Land of Hot Water and back. He'll cover our food, lodging, and everything else—we just have to make sure he stays safe. There's also another team taking on the same mission...

011 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

"Hehehe, you're still the prettiest. Way better than that old hag I've got at home," the bandit boss slurred, drunk, with one arm around the woman.

"Oh, stop it~" the woman giggled coquettishly. "I left everything behind just to be with you, you know?"

"Hahaha! That sickly man you married couldn't satisfy you anyway, right? Now let me just—hiss, what the hell was that?" The bandit boss winced in pain as something bit his foot. It felt like a mosquito bite, barely noticeable. He ...

010 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

The daily life of a genin consisted of picking up garbage, babysitting, farming, or looking for lost pets.

As complete rookies, the missions they received were almost always D-rank.

By the time they took on their tenth D-rank mission, the Second Young Master of Konoha had had enough.

"No more! I'm not doing these boring missions anymore!" Asuma was throwing a tantrum in the mission hall of the Hokage Building—just short of flailing on the floor and wailing.

Yuhi Shin...

009 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

Asakawa Kiyosuke stared at Asuma, making him squirm with discomfort.

"Let me go already!" Asuma snapped.

Without a word, Kiyosuke dispelled the venomous snake wrapped around him and tucked it back into his sleeve. As long as I'm not embarrassed, someone else will be.

"How'd you even manage to catch me?"

"Ask it." Kiyosuke pointed to the small white snake. "Sensei Shinku moved behind you. I just saved your life."

"Thanks... I guess."

Hiss—

T...

008 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

The Ninja Academy exam was a breeze for Kiyosuke. Under Orochimaru's guidance, the test—which wasn't particularly difficult to begin with—was easily cleared. He passed with flying colors and received his shinobi forehead protector, grinning from ear to ear.

He was now an official Genin of Konohagakure!

And Genin from the Leaf were no joke. Just look at the kind of damage they could do in a fight—devastating enough to level landscapes. Think of someone like a Jonin... cough, ...

007 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

As soon as those words were spoken, the entire crowd fell silent.

"You're claiming to be Orochimaru-sama's student? Who would believe that?" the Uchiha clan member shouted.

Uchiha Fugaku snapped, "Enough. Shut your mouth."

"Captain—"

"I said shut it!"

"...Yes, sir."

Fugaku narrowed his eyes, staring intently at Kiyosuke. Activating his Sharingan, he observed the boy's chakra flow and noticed a strong fire-natured chakra.

"You said you're Orochimaru-...

006 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

"Orochimaru, you haven't taken on any subordinates yet, have you?" Hiruzen Sarutobi asked, puffing on his pipe.

At that, Orochimaru replied flatly,

"I have no interest in dragging brats along on missions. It's just a waste of time. Asakawa Kiyosuke's talent is decent—better than that fool Jiraiya—but aside from his kekkei genkai, there's nothing that truly catches my eye."

He knew exactly what the old man was planning. No way was he going to play squad leader. Total wast...

005 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

"That's it?"

Orochimaru looked at Kiyosuke with narrowed eyes.

"That's all. These are all the abilities I've developed so far," Kiyosuke replied.

"That's not much. You could develop a lot more techniques. But you're still young—there's plenty of time." Orochimaru's voice was calm, almost indifferent.

"Ah, okay..."

"I just thought of a move. Your elementalization—does it allow you to regenerate even if your entire body is blown to pieces?"

What kind of m...

004 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

Kiyosuke fell silent, staring at Orochimaru's pale hand extended toward him.

Following Orochimaru could definitely bring a lot of benefits. And more importantly, it meant he could use his power without constantly hiding it.

The power of a Devil Fruit wasn't something that made sense in this world. He'd kept it secret all along because he was afraid the village would discover it. Then he'd end up strapped to an operating table, dissected by some experimental team trying to unlock t...

003 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

Staring at the unconscious pair of brothers, Kiyosuke clapped his hands. Then, looking at Mizuki's face, he clicked his tongue in disdain, grabbed a fistful of the boy's silver hair, and set it ablaze, leaving it looking like a fried bird's nest.

With a cheeky grin, he suddenly felt a chill crawl up his spine.

"Psssh... why do I have such a bad feeling all of a sudden? Time to scram."

He left the brothers there. There weren't any wild beasts around that could threaten them, ...

002 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

He—Asakawa Kiyosuke—had always been kind to others. He never picked fights and never made enemies.

And yet, today, someone actually came looking to beat him up?

This was Konohagakure! A peaceful, harmonious village—one big happy family. People here didn't fight among themselves.

"You sure that brat's around here, Mizuki? I gave up training time to help you deal with some punk who bullied you, so this better not be a waste."

Another voice echoed nearby. It sounded...

001 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

Full name: In Naruto with the Flame-Flame Fruit

112 Starting from One Piece

Kaito's battle with Mihawk had come to an end, leaving behind a massive crack stretching from the frozen inner bay all the way beyond the outer wall.

Except for Mihawk, the remaining Shichibukai had all departed.

As for Mihawk, he had no reason to leave—he was currently lying in a hospital bed at Marine Headquarters, recovering from his injuries.

Right now, Mihawk sat silently, head lowered, staring at the terrifying wound that extended from his lower abdomen to his right ...

111 Starting from One Piece

Marineford, in front of the Marine Headquarters building—

Mihawk and the other Shichibukai arrived at the location Kaito had mentioned, only to find him already standing on the edge of Marineford's outer wall.

Kaito had his back to them, eyes fixed on the inner bay beyond the wall, estimating it to be around three hundred meters in diameter.

If he needed to use Susanoo later, this bay would be spacious enough.

Everyone looked around but didn...

003 (Vol 2) Breaking the World Apart

Ever since he received the tourist brochure, Sōseki had been nothing but confused.

What the hell is all this?

Wandering aimlessly along Konoha's main road, Sōseki suddenly realized that he'd unknowingly arrived at the narrow path leading to the Uchiha district!

According to the guidelines, the Uchiha district was off-limits to the public. So what was he supposed to do in this kind of situation again?

As a proper spy, Sōseki decided to take matters into his own hands...

002 (Vol 2) Breaking the World Apart

What exactly is going on in Konoha?

It wasn't just Orochimaru who was curious—at this point, the entire shinobi world had its eyes locked on the village.

Not long ago, a number of villagers had relocated from Konoha. And through their testimonies, a bizarre, unbelievable story began to spread far and wide—

One day, a massive screen suddenly appeared above the Hokage Rock. A harsh, mechanical voice blasted through every corner of the village. At the same time, blood-red c...

160 I Am Crazy with the Simulation

However, Jashin ignored your words and simply continued his explanation:

"As the Ōtsutsuki God and the various deities of the Shinobi World fell—either perishing outright or suffering grave injuries and going into hiding—the Ōtsutsuki clan too was severely weakened.

Because the blood of the Ōtsutsuki God was spilled across the Shinobi World, humans began to awaken chakra...

With that, the war of the gods came to an end, and the Primordial Era drew to a close.

Th...

159 I Am Crazy with the Simulation

"The Ōtsutsuki Clan, huh... it's been a long time since I last heard that name..."

When you heard Jashin speaking through Hidan's mouth, you suddenly realized you'd made a mistake in revealing your knowledge of the Ōtsutsuki.

You quickly covered it up, claiming the name had just surfaced in your mind after your bloodline awakened.

Fortunately, Jashin didn't seem to notice that slip.

Instead, it led you through a massive temple shaped like a pyramid, past several othe...

158 I Am Crazy with the Simulation

Once your signal was received,

Kakuzu immediately unleashed a triple-combo ninjutsu, firing a light cannon made from Wind, Fire, and Lightning Style deep into the misty forest where the Five-Tails, Kokuō, resided.

The sudden assault provoked a fierce counterattack. The Five-Tails responded with its colossal body and an enormous Boil Release, engaging in a head-on clash.

Kakuzu reinforced his body with Earth Style, and the battlefield exploded into chaos as powerful five-ele...

197 Naruto: Awaken the Tenseigan

Ten days later Ninja Allied Forces

The six great nations, each leading their respective ninja divisions, arrived in grand procession outside the village of Konohagakure.

During this time, Hyuga Gakuya had been anything but idle. Not only had he personally overseen the anti-feudal revolution in the smaller nations, but he had also mobilized ten thousand puppets—an army that had been sitting in storage, gathering dust.

In truth, he had originally prepared a ...

265 Naruto: Yagura Karatachi

The first day of the New Year, Year 65 of the New Era.

As per tradition in this new era, the annual Five Kage Summit convened once again. The five Kage gathered to discuss the direction and goals for the world in the upcoming year.

The host nation rotated each year, and starting from the summit held in Kirigakure back in Year 60, it was now once again the Land of Water's turn.

"It's been a while, everyone."

In the Land of Water, Karatachi Yagura sat at...

264 Naruto: Yagura Karatachi

The second official Five Kage Summit of the shinobi world—and the first one that included Kirigakure—came to a temporary close three days later.

After probing Yagura's intentions, the other four Kage understood that he had no desire to provoke another large-scale war. That alone set the tone for the future: peaceful development among the nations, mutual cooperation, and the creation of a shared destiny within the shinobi world.

Of course, this so-called peace was founded on Ki...
