After capturing Dubrak Kunto’s band of smugglers, the next week or so settled into a calm rhythm, with the colony steadily growing.
Four mining stations now orbited the gas giant—also called Endor—supplying the mothership with helium-3 fuel for its fusion reactors. That was the limit, though; the mothership only carried four modular mining stations. Building more would require constructing them from scratch.
Of the nine moons circling this Endor, three were rich in me...

“The real question is why a monster like this is lurking on the outskirts of Endor?” Felasi said, practically losing it. “If this is the case, what about Kenneth and the others?”

The next day, inside the Ninja Academy classroom.
“Sanada Kazama, Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke, Haruno Sakura—you four have been assigned to Team 7. Wait here for your team leader.”
Kazama was over the moon when he heard he’d finally been placed in the same squad as Naruto, just as he’d hoped.

Unfortunately for Mizuki, his kunai was knocked away the moment it struck the sturdy body of Kazama’s Mokuton (Wood Release) clone.
“What?! How the heck is your body this tough?!” Mizuki exclaimed, his heart skipping a beat when he saw his kunai couldn’t even scratch Kazama.
“That’s just one of my clones. If you can’t even hurt my clone, how do you expect to take me on?” Kazama taunted.
Meanwhile, Kazama’s real body had already circled aroun...

Just as Kazama thought he’d smoothly taken care of the Root ninja, something unexpected happened.
The clone he’d pierced with his Suiton (Water Release) suddenly transformed into a surge of lightning energy.
It shot straight toward him, riding the water’s flow.
“Hmph! So it’s a Raiton Kage Bunshin (Lightning Shadow Clone). Not bad for a Root ninja. If this were anyone else, they’d be half-dead or worse. Too bad for ...

“Is this kid an idiot or what?”
Seeing Kazama spread his arms wide, seemingly welcoming the powerful Suiton: Suiryūdan (Water Dragon Bullet), the two Root ninja burst into mocking laughter.
But the next moment, their jaws dropped in shock.
Not only did the Suiryūdan fail to kill Kazama, but he absorbed it completely into his body.

On the surface, it looked like Kazama’s Karyū Endan was aimed at Sasuke.
But in reality, he’d tweaked its path, sending it straight for the two Root ninja lurking nearby.
Those two Root ninja had no clue Kazama was targeting them on purpose.
They just thought his Karyū Endan had gone off course and happened to come their way.
After all, they were pretty far from Kazama—there’s no way they expected him to pick up on their prese...

The next day, after seeing his parents’ injuries were healing, Kazama headed straight to the Ninja Academy.
Today was the graduation exam.
If he wanted to end up in the same class as Naruto, he had to pass this exam first.
Kazama remembered flunking every single test before this.
But today was the final part of the exam—spar! And with the ** system on his side, Kazama was ready to dominate.
Sure, he only knew one ninjutsu, Karyū Endan

Kazama’s rush to meet the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, wasn’t just a whim.
He needed the Third’s strength to protect his critically injured parents and the surviving members of the Sanada clan.
Kazama had his own mission: to focus on growing stronger so he could one day take down Danzo himself.
“A genius! A one-in-a-million genius!”

With the system in his hands, Kazama felt invincible—like the whole world was his to command! That’s the vibe he was giving off right now.

A young boy named Sanada Kazama was being relentlessly beaten by ninja from the Root, the shadowy organization under Danzo’s command.
Truth be told, Kazama wasn’t from this world. He was a transmigrator from the 21st century.
But even after five years in the Naruto world, he still couldn’t muster ...

The truck's brakes slammed on. Batman reached out a hand, as if with immense power, effortlessly taking control of the steering wheel from Carl.
"Carl Scott."
A cold, emotionless voice came from its mouth, a duet with a hoarse electronic tone, like some kind of demon sound that had come from hell to earth, making Carl's legs tremble.

On the deserted streets of the Otisburg district, a heavy-duty truck was hauling cargo through the city.
Carl had one hand on the steering wheel and a burger in the other, glancing out the window with a casual air. This was Gotham at night. It was 10:05 PM, and there were hardly any pedestrians or cars left on the streets. The emptiness undeniably fueled his need for speed, and he pushed the truck up to eighty miles per hour.
He was a veteran Gotham trucker; he'd been drivi...

Actually, Cody could somewhat understand his colleagues' fear of this customer.

Cody wasn't lying. Everyone who's been through exams knows the deal with last-minute cramming – a whole semester's worth of knowledge gets crammed into a few days before the test, memorized, and then promptly forgotten. Even though this guidebook was pretty thick and nobody had highlighted the important parts, he still managed to memorize most of it.
Just to be safe, he even spent a dollar of his asset points in the car to save the content on the system's record board, so he co...

It was 1 PM, and Cody finally returned to the grimy residential area of the East End on his beloved ride.
Don't misunderstand, it wasn't because picking a ride took them too long. Actually, the car-buying process only took about 10 minutes. The reason he got back so late was because the ride Cody picked had a slight disadvantage in the speed department.

In Gotham, the bigger you are, the more fishy stuff is usually going on. If you're a smaller target, the less likely you are to stir up trouble.

The beat-up old bus rattled down the road, weaving through traffic and the cold, thin mist of Gotham's East End, driving all the way from the east side of uptown to the west side.

Drake and Cody were sitting on the drafty bus, traveling through the streets of Otisburg. Cody heard Drake mutter to himself and couldn't help but turn his head and look at him.

So, a new innocent, unlucky soul just showed up at the Gotham train station.
In a place like Gotham, you don't usually see many strangers. And if you do, they're mostly tied to local operations – we're talking mobsters, enforcers, dealers, human traffickers, or criminals on the run because they crossed the wrong people outside. Basically, anyone arriving by train in Gotham isn't typically your model citizen or a wealthy big shot.
Over the years, no clueless capitalist fro...
