150 Getting Killed Makes Me Stronger

At some unknown point, Kairen and Yakushi Nono walked over to the swing and sat together, gently swaying back and forth.

Yakushi Nono rested in Kairen's arms, watching the children with a complicated expression as she said:

"Kairen, there are still so many children in this world living in filthy ditches, never seeing the light of day."

"Kairen, I want to save them. I want every child to have a warm place they can call paradise."

Kairen lowered his head and kissed Yakus...

429 Scourge of the Ninja World

If there is any way to die that terrifies people the most, it would undoubtedly be the scene before them.

Being surrounded by a swarm of snakes, bitten to death, crushed to death, feeling those slick serpents crawling all over your body—what could possibly be more terrifying than this?

Right now, the Root members were undergoing this full baptism, finally dying in despair.

Gekko Chizan stopped in his tracks because all three Snake Princesses spoke at the same time.

"Chizan, there's a chakra presence up ahead, but it isn't giving off any threat. It feels like a sensory technique."

"No, that's not just a sensory technique. They fused their chakra with the raindrops around us, similar to my genjutsu. Chizan, we can't get close. Our invisibility can hide our presence and chakra, but if our bodies collide with something, we'll be exposed."

"Damn it… damn that Iruka…"

Inside a small tavern, Mizuki sat alone in the furthest corner, drowning himself in silent drinking.

As he drank, he muttered complaints about Iruka, the childhood acquaintance he'd known for years.

Why was Iruka able to become a fully established teacher at the Ninja Academy, while he himself was only an outside contractor without any official position? Just because Iruka's parents were jōnin?

Mizuki hated Iruka to the core.

"Recently, there've been more and more unfamiliar faces around the village."

Just as Terumi Mei had noticed Kakashi's group, Naruto and the others also realized that more and more outsiders were gathering inside the village.

"Ah, come to think of it, you guys still don't know, right? The Chūnin..."

Kakashi suddenly remembered something. He stopped walking, ready to explain about the Chūnin Exams in his usual absent-minded tone.

But before he could finish, the sound o...

Marcarita also felt her acting was a bit over the top, but since the play had already begun, she had no choice but to push through it.

She grabbed the front of Kaito's shirt and muttered,

"I just zoned out for a moment. She suddenly popped out and scared me!"

Kaito rolled his eyes. He thought, You're an angel. No matter how distracted you get, there's no way you wouldn't notice a human standing right in front of you.

On one side, Vados and Kaito were fooling around, while on the other side, the Grand Priest was holding the Omni-King in his arms as they went around the carousel again and again.

The Omni-King didn't know whether he'd gotten bored in the palace or what, but today he was unusually excited. The carousel had already changed passengers countless times, yet he remained stuck to the Grand Priest like he'd been welded in place, showing no intention of getting off.

488 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

Time passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, Kiyosuke's son, Shinichi, was born healthy. The little guy had naturally black hair, and his eyes—emerald green like his mother's—were stunning.

Yuka was already three years old and had begun learning ninjutsu from Kiyosuke.

This child was a true prodigy. Not only had she inherited Terumī Mei's two kekkei genkai—Lava Release and Boil Release—but she also possessed all seven chakra natures: wind, fire, wat...

Minato and Kushina stayed behind. With their son's wedding coming up, they felt bad about asking Kiyosuke to use Edo Tensei again, so they decided to remain in the village and help prepare for Naruto's wedding.

Night fell, the moon bright and the stars sparse.

In the Akatsuki's secret base, perhaps because his long-held wish was finally about to come true, the Masked Man's breathing had grown uneven.

"Rin! I'll drag this world into the dream of Infinite Tsukuyomi, and bring everlasting peace!"

The Masked Man spoke with feverish excitement.

To stay safe, he planned to quietly transform the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path into the Ten Tails! After that, he'd control the Ten Ta...

"Alright! Flying Thunder God Technique!"

In a flash—!

Kiyosuke was swapped out, replaced by Naruto. Sasuke also exchanged positions with the Truth-Seeking Balls beside Naruto. Both of them reached their hands toward Kaguya, who was lying on the ground.

Swoosh!

Seeing that things were going bad, Kaguya switched dimensions again, pulling distance between them. This time, they arrived in a space filled with jagged rock, and the sky was a sickly green. View Post

Yakushi Nono approached, placing her hand on Akikawa's shoulder as she said indulgently:

"Sil·ly child, Mother doesn't need you worrying about her!"

"But Mother, if you go on like this… nobody will want you!"

"If nobody wants me, then nobody wants me!"

Kairen placed one hand on Yakushi Nono's shoulder and smiled at her:

"So? Nono, do you want to be my girlfriend? I'll take care of you for a lifetime."

Yakushi Nono fell silent. They had known each other f...

The Konoha Orphanage sat on the outskirts of Konoha, where the land was cheap and home only to the poorest villagers.

When the higher-ups first built this orphanage, their intention was merely to show off. Once the performance was over, they tossed it aside and never bothered to care for it again.

Kairen and Yakushi Nono rode swiftly toward the orphanage.

Yakushi Nono sniffed the masculine scent coming from Kairen and her face flushed. It was her first time being this close ...

Yamashita Shige directly regarded Kairen as his ancestor, repeating endlessly about repaying his debt of gratitude, even threatening Kairen that if he didn't order him around in the future, he would immediately commit seppuku.

"No need! No need!"

"No, benefactor, if you don't treat me as your retainer from now on… I'll commit seppuku!"

Kairen had underestimated how important an arm was to a person. After all, it was like losing half a lifetime's spouse — anyone would fee...

Tsunade shook her head and replied, "Unlikely. Zetsu already showed Wood Release when he attacked the daimyō, so it's entirely possible they created a wooden Buddha statue…"

Hearing that, the Raikage covered his face.

Because of Akatsuki's strange movements, the Allied Shinobi Forces recalled all units stationed outside, keeping everyone at headquarters for safety.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice trembled.

If he hadn't heard wrong just now, didn't Renya just insult the daimyo?!

This is bad. Really bad!

In his ingrained shinobi mindset, you must never provoke a daimyo.

Yet Renya had openly insulted and threatened the daimyo — an utterly outrageous act.

It was effectively pushing Konoha into the fire!

"Bast—bastard!"

The daimyo, after a brief stunned moment, snapped back to attention.

When Sarutobi Hiruzen saw Renya suddenly stand up, he was startled on the spot.

He couldn't help but recall that scene years ago at the Daimyō's mansion in the Land of Lightning.

At once, his whole body tensed up like he was sitting on needles, and his face turned pale.

Renya turned his head, and his black pupils gradually turned crimson.

Flames shot into the sky, blazing spectacularly.

"This isn't space–time ninjutsu. It's far more advanced than that," Kiyosuke explained calmly.

"This is the power of the Rinne Sharingan—the same ability Madara possessed when he became the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki. It's a technique of the Ōtsutsuki clan, allowing the user to reshape the surrounding space however they desire. If I remember correctly... six or seven types, wasn't it?"

Today, a certain large amusement park welcomed the most distinguished group of visitors it had ever seen since its founding.

Aside from Eighteen, who didn't come because she wasn't familiar with the Omni-King, everyone else arrived together with Kaito.

The Omni-King's two attendants had both changed into black suits and wore sunglasses, sticking closely behind him like textbook bodyguards.

Beerus and Whis didn't change clothes, still wearing their usual "work attire."

Kaito looked at the Grand Priest with a strange expression. For some reason, it felt like the Grand Priest was giving away his daughters—two of them, at once.

What else could Kaito say? Getting two angels for free was already a massive gain—he'd be a fool to complain about such fortune.

No one knew how much time had passed before the Daimyō of the Land of Fire finally arrived—slow and leisurely, as if this were all beneath him.

Although he said "sorry," there wasn't the slightest trace of guilt on his face.
