"You bastard, why are you only coming back now?"

Danzō, wearing the Hokage straw hat, tossed the documents in his hands onto the desk when he saw Renya follow Hiruzen inside.

"I went out for a walk. I just got back and heard you two arguing—what happened?" Renya asked, pretending not to understand.

In truth, he had only caught the gist of it; the exact details weren't very clear.

He only vaguely knew that Danzō seemed to have killed some shinobi from Sunagakure. 2025-11-15 06:08:01 +0000 UTC View Post

470 Starting from One Piece

Marcarita still didn't manage to get her beloved remote control. Even when she turned on the TV, Vados had already switched the channel to the evening news.

Helpless, she could only kill time by watching the broadcast.

Kaito found her sulky expression rather amusing. Sitting on one end of the sofa, he decided to keep her company and watch along.

Honestly, watching what was happening on Earth from time to time wasn't bad. Back when he was still on Earth, Kaito had the habit o...

469 Starting from One Piece

Before him floated a crimson planet — the last Super Dragon Ball.

Having already absorbed the power of six others, Kaito could now sense its position himself, so Bulma no longer needed to build a Dragon Radar.

The illusion concealing this Dragon Ball meant nothing to him. A golden gleam flashed across Kaito's eyes, and the rocky crust shrouding the sphere exploded apart, revealing the Super Dragon Ball's true form.

With another Sukunahikona, the massive Dragon Ball shrank ...

391 The Shimura Has Ice Release

"Are you the white snake that's come to take me?"

After leaving Mount Myōboku, Takeshi began his journey to seek out the White Snake.

Watching him squat in the grass, lifting the tail of every white snake he saw and asking them a question or two, Uchiha Hikari fought the urge to kick him, turning her head away as if she didn't know him.

How embarrassing.

Takeshi, completely oblivious to how ridiculous he looked, kept searching through the grass for a white snake.

390 The Shimura Has Ice Release

"Yare yare, finally found them."

Just as Naruto and the others were wondering how exactly Kakashi planned to locate the bandits, Kakashi—who had been sitting under a tree reading his book—suddenly stretched lazily and closed it.

Naruto reacted first and quickly looked into the distance.

Sure enough, he saw another Kakashi walking toward them, carrying a burly man foaming at the mouth over his shoulder.

"A Shadow Clone? When did he…?"

Sasuke's expression dar...

419 Scourge of the Ninja World

[Ding! Detected that the host used an extremely disgusting method to destroy Salamander Hanzō's castle beyond recognition. How cruel and heartless. Special reward: 10,000 Explosive Tags.]

No matter what the reward was, Gekko Chizan gladly accepted it.

Looking at the horn-shaped ruins of the castle, he could barely keep himself from laughing.

"Chizan, your Transparent Release really is something else. You can even make something like this?"

"I bet that...

"Alright, don't touch my test subject."

"But this guy's condition really piques my interest. This is a secret technique—one that can actually affect his own physique."

"This confirms it for me—there are still far more mysterious things in this world."

"Perhaps even senjutsu isn't limited to just the Three Great Sacred Grounds."

Orochimaru put down his work and walked over to the container as well.

The moment Mangetsu Hōzuki saw Orochimaru, his body instantly...

"I'm home."

In the evening, when he returned home, Mei Terumī was in the kitchen cooking.

"Welcome back," she said softly.

Turning down the heat, Mei smiled and said,

"I bought a few new outfits for you on my way back from the market. You should try them on. How long has it been since you bought new clothes?"

When she'd checked her husband's wardrobe earlier, she noticed he didn't have much to wear—only a few everyday outfits, most from years ago. As expected,...

474 Naruto the Flame-Flame Fruit

Kiyosuke had originally planned to hold a wedding for Naruto and Hinata.

However, since both of them were still underage, the ceremony was postponed.

Minato and Kushina didn't insist either. After saying their heartfelt goodbyes to their son, they released the Edo Tensei and left this world together. Before departing, Kushina handed Kiyosuke two small locks of hair—one red and one yellow. The meaning was obvious enough.

Even after the Fourth Great Ninja War, some of the Wh...

Land of Lightning, Kumogakure.

Allied Shinobi Forces Headquarters.

The news of Ino's revival had just reached the base.

Yamanaka Inoichi, who had been both heartbroken and exhausted to the point of collapse, suddenly sprang up from his bed, eyes wide with joy.

"You're saying it's true? Ino's okay? (ﾉ∇︎〃 )"

Nara Shikaku nodded calmly. "Old friend, after all these years, when have I ever lied to you?"

"It's said that ...

136 Getting Killed Makes Me Stronger

The next morning was clear—a good day for killing and arson.

Kairen got up early, bought soy milk and fried dough sticks for Tsunade and the others, and watched them finish breakfast before beginning his training for the day.

Tsunade had to attend a high-level meeting. After all, with such a major incident happening yesterday, the village was bound to need some time to stabilize.

Kairen was supposed to go as well, but he didn't. He had no desire to see the hypocritical fac...

Yakushi Nono spoke calmly.

"My intelligence-gathering ability is very strong, and I also know many of Root's secrets, as well as their Ninjutsu scrolls. I believe those would interest you."

Kairen thought for a moment. The secrets of Root were useless to him, but those Ninjutsu scrolls—those were useful.

Even if there weren't many high-level techniques among them, it was still worth it. After all, even a mosquito is still meat.

He released Yakushi Nono's chin and sne...

134 Getting Killed Makes Me Stronger

The night was pitch-black, with only two or three stars scattered across the sky.

"Mm~"

Fenchu rolled twice across the floor, stopping in front of Kairen. Grabbing onto his pant leg, the little creature slowly climbed into his arms.

Kairen stroked its fur, his eyes drifting toward the three enormous Hokage Rock faces.

The Third Hokage's face was such an eyesore that Kairen felt an urge to destroy it and replace it with his own—making a funny face instead.

He tu...

364 Adopted by the Second Hokage!

Three months passed in the blink of an eye.

"Kid, are you planning to leave?"

In front of the luxurious mansion worth three hundred million ryō, Uchiha Madara looked at Renya, who carried a travel bag on his back, and murmured softly.

A fleeting trace of reluctance flickered in his eyes.

"Yes, Madara-sama," Renya nodded.

He had lived in the Land of Iron for several months—it was about time to return to Konoha.

After all, someone back hom...

363 Adopted by the Second Hokage!

In the courtyard of the luxurious mansion, the three of them lay on lounge chairs basking in the sun.

Enjoying a rare, hard-earned moment of leisure.

"Kid, when are you planning to leave?" Uchiha Madara asked suddenly.

By all rights Senju Tobirama wouldn't let Renya stay outside the village for long — the kid had already been with them for nearly a month.

Counting the days, he should be heading back soon, right?

After all, Renya had only joined the "Moon Eye" p...

334 Roger Pirates Apprentice

It was as if the heavens themselves sought to emphasize the scene unfolding before them.

Orin looked up at the sky. Thick, dark clouds rolled in, rumbling with thunder.

"A sudden strong wind, huh~"

He lifted his gaze higher. The gale howled, whipping his elegant coat in every direction.

"How unusual."

Mihawk, too, sensed the shift. Faced with the might of nature, he simply pressed down on his hat with one hand, his cold eyes fixed ahead.

At the execution sq...

"Na-ni!!!"

In that instant, Smoker didn't even know when the blade had appeared—

But its edge was already pressed coldly against his throat, gleaming with a chilling light.

Before he could even move toward Orin, Mihawk had somehow appeared right beside him, standing tall and proud with Yoru in hand.

The wide brim of Mihawk's hat cast a shadow that hid most of his face, leaving only those sharp, ringed eyes visible—cold, layered, and unblinking as they locked on Smo...

The communication ninja's report continued:

"At the same time, according to the latest news from the First Division, the White Zetsu with transformation abilities has most likely infiltrated the Allied Shinobi Forces and is waiting for an opportunity to strike... Yamanaka Ino was killed by a White Zetsu assassination..."

"Bang!"

The helmet in Yamanaka Inoichi's hand fell to the ground with a heavy thud.

He immediately turned toward the ninja who had just delivered the ...

The Edo Tensei body possesses virtually unlimited chakra—utterly terrifying!

At this moment, all seven wooden clones of Madara were covered in Susanoo armor!

Seconds later, one blue giant after another appeared behind him.

"Although they're not in the full-body form of Susanoo, this many should be enough to deal with you."

Madara spoke confidently to the Four Kage.

"Betting on the title of Kage, we'll seal you here and now!"

The Raikage roared, lightning ...

"Of course. I'm Uchiha Madara — no one can take my place. But to think I've been played by you from beginning to end… that's really irritating."

"Don't blame me. It's all for the future. So, can I borrow your Rinnegan?"

"Take it. It's useless to me now."

"Then… can I use Edo Tensei to bring you back someday?"

Madara chuckled. "You're talking like I agreed to it the first time you did it."

"Yeah, sorry. But this time, I'm actually asking."

Kiyosuke plu...

"Impossible!!!"

Madara roared in unwilling fury. "I've planned all this for so long—I will never fail!"

"When you put your faith in a stone tablet, your failure was already decided! No one can entrust peace to a tablet whose truth can't even be verified!"

Kiyosuke hovered in the air, clashing fiercely with Madara.

"That stone was left behind by the Sage of Six Paths! Only those with the Sharingan can read it!" Madara's voice was filled with conviction. To him, the ta...

The next day, noon.

"Agh, this pile of snakes is disgusting. That Konoha bastard—if I see him, I'll cut him to pieces!"

"Tell me about it. He actually sent a bunch of snakes to attack the castle. You should've seen Hanzo-sama's face."

"Enough, enough, stop yakking and get to work. If we don't finish clearing these serpent corpses, the whole village will be affected."

A group of Amegakure shinobi were working as laborers, hauling the snakes that had a...

Konoha Village, Root Division.

"Hmph, still haven't found that bastard Orochimaru?"

"He has the research reports on Hashirama's cells. With only what we have, the progress is far too slow."

"Increase the search efforts. I want Orochimaru's whereabouts found immediately."

Shimura Danzō glanced down at the research report in his hand, his face dark with dissatisfaction.

The Root operative before him nodded nervously.

"Hmph, and that damned G...

389 The Shimura Has Ice Release

Although Takeshi had mastered a brand new Sage Mode, he wasn't in a hurry to leave.

After several days of training in Senjutsu under Fukasaku, Takeshi sat alone one night atop a massive plant, pondering the meaning behind the Great Toad Sage's prophecy.

From the literal sense, the "white snake" mentioned by the Great Toad could either refer to Orochimaru, or perhaps a literal white serpent.

Either interpretation seemed plausible.

"Fifth..."

A familiar voice came ...

388 The Shimura Has Ice Release

Accompanied by the distinct sound of the Summoning Technique, Uchiha Hikari arrived at Mount Myōboku under Jiraiya's escort.

"Oh, so this is the Uchiha Jiraiya was talking about?"

The one greeting them wasn't one of the Great Toad Sages, but Gamabunta himself—pipe in mouth, face fierce and imposing.

Hearing the disrespectful tone, Uchiha Hikari's brows furrowed sharply. She suddenly turned her head toward Gamabunta, and an overwhelming killing intent burst forth, engulfin...

468 Starting from One Piece

A sacred and majestic aura radiated from Kaito's body, so much so that even Vados, an angel, instinctively lowered her head.

Champa, who had been sleeping soundly, smacked his lips and groggily opened his eyes. The moment he saw Kaito "burning" with golden light, his drowsiness vanished instantly.

"U-U-U... Uchiha Kaito!?"

With a startled yelp, Champa rolled over and sprang up—only to collapse to the floor with a thud when Kaito cast him a single glance.

Marcarita froze for a moment, completely speechless.

Whis, on the other hand, looked utterly bewildered.

Good heavens—so the strongest universe turned out to be his own?

After all, Kaito was a being stronger than even angels. Even if Jiren were summoned here, he'd still be slapped twice before he could react.

Wherever Kaito existed, that universe was, without question, the strongest of them all.

And Kaito did consider himself part of the Seventh Universe, so ca...

Creating a piece of land on the ocean — the Shinju made it sound simple, but in practice...

It actually wasn't that hard! Ծ‿Ծ

The Shinju first split off a clone to help support the meteorite.

With his hands now free, his real body dove straight into the ocean depths.

Although the Island Turtle was located near the coast, the water was still three to four hundred meters deep.

A normal person could barely dive a few dozen meters at most. Even a trained shinob...

In a dimly lit space somewhere, everyone from Sasuke's team wore expressions of pure despair: ಥ_ಥ

Suigetsu sighed.

"It's not impossible… I really wanna know what's happening out there. When the hell are we getting out of here…"

"That damn cow won't stop mooing—so noisy it's driving me insane!" Kairen was visibly irritated.

Tsunade had been nagging him endlessly; even when Kairen tried to learn some cooking skills, she wouldn't stop complaining.

He finally stood up and shouted at her, "You're whining! At this rate, I doubt you'll ever manage to sit on anything properly again!"

"Here's the ladle—why don't you do it yourself then?!"

"Click!"

Kairen snapped his fingers, and in an instan...
