Chapter 276: The Class Reunion

Kyoto, Kita Ward, Ōji Honmachi.

*The Takahashi Residence.*

"Dad, what are you looking at?"

After dinner, the boy curiously poked his head out to observe his father, who sat on the tatami lost in thought.

Noticing the photo album in his father, Takahashi Iya's, hands, the boy couldn't help but ask.

"I'm looking at photos from my younger days," Takahashi replied with a faint smile. Flipping through the old ...

Chapter 29: Narrow Escape

Heather's adoptive parents froze immediately. Guns have a pretty big effect on regular folks.

"Hey, hey, take it easy! Killing someone is illegal!"

Roy handed Heather the Smith & Wesson M625 revolver and told her to aim it at her adoptive parents.

"Texas has the Castle Doctrine, you know. Heather could shoot you both and it'd be fine since you've invaded her property!"

Actually, what he said was a bit misleading, but Heather's adoptive parents were too unedu...

*Chapter 28: Private Property*

[Ding! Obtained Heather Sawyer's Conquest Treasure Chest! Open it now?]

Heather's riding skills weren't exactly polished – you could even say they were pretty rough. But hey, those constantly jiggling airbags kind of made up for it.

Roy's eyes were practically spinning from all the bouncing. He had to put a hand on those airbags just to keep things from getting too bumpy.

Since his back was still a bit sore, Roy didn't push himself too hard. He only went a couple of...

Chapter 828: Harvest and Allocation

“Inhale~~~ Exhale~~~”

Taking a deep breath, then letting it out slowly.

Seimei calmed his mind.

Now that he’d tested how much chakra the Four-Tails could supply daily, the next step was figuring out how to distribute it.

First up was a plan he’d originally intended to tackle but had shelved due to a lack of chakra.

The idea? Combine the “Transcription Seal,” “Lockheart Seal,” and “Self-Karma Curse Seal” with the Flying Thunder ...

Chapter 827: Training and Testing

After reflecting on the past two weeks of training, Seimei didn’t dwell on it too long. With a flicker of thought, he closed the proficiency panel.

Next, he reached for his ninja pouch and pulled out a few enhanced soldier pills. Popping them into his mouth, he chewed a couple of times before swallowing.

After a short break, he dove into the final task of the day—nurturing his Byakugan. Activating the Senra Bansho Fuin seal at his forehead, he linked it with hi...

Chapter 217: All for the Sake of Learning

*Weekend.*

Columbia University Medical School Community Health Program.

Adam, Iliad, and Bianca—the inseparable trio—arrived at the community clinic for their weekly medical internship.

In medicine, clinical practice is crucial, especially for doctors.

Even though the first two years of medical school focus mainly on theory, students still participate in weekly internships to gain hands-on experience in clinical settings.

After all, ...

*Chapter 216: The Fun of Studying Medicine*

That evening.

Everyone gathered together.

This was the first time in over a month that Adam had joined them.

“Well, well, if it isn’t our busy man! What brings you here today?”

Phoebe exaggeratedly teased when she saw Adam walk in.

“I’ve just been really busy,” Adam said with a smile. “But no matter how busy I am, I’d always make time for you.”

“Alright, I’ll accept that reason.”

Hearing this, Phoebe immedi...

Chapter 215: A Twist of Fate

The next day.

Early morning.

"Okay, let's go for a run."

When Adam knocked on the door as usual, he was surprised to find Chandler already up and fully prepared. There was none of his usual reluctance to get out of bed—he was bouncing on his feet, clapping his hands, looking completely energized.

"What’s the good news?"

Adam asked with a smile.

"Nothing."

Chandler feigned innocence. "Can’t I just say I’ve grown to love run...

*Chapter 176: The National Tournament Begins, Higa Chuu vs. Rokkaku Chuu*

The next day, August 17th. Clear skies.

Tokyo’s ARENA Tennis Stadium.

Nestled in the heart of the Tokyo Sports Complex, this massive dome-shaped venue could hold nearly 20,000 spectators.

By 8 a.m., the area outside the stadium was packed with lines stretching hundreds of meters.

“This is the scale of the Nationals?” 2025-04-24 05:14:48 +0000 UTC View Post

*Chapter 171: Shukuchi Method - Shishido’s Defeat, Ishikawa Steps Up (3rd Update)*

“Whoa, what’s this?”

Spotting someone stepping onto the court, the beach-capped teen—Higa Chuu’s vice-captain, Kai Yujiro—perked up. He’d already braced himself for a slow day with less cash flow, but now his eyes gleamed with interest.

“Heh heh.”

Nearby, the Higa Chuu team members doubling as ball boys snapped to attention, their spirits lifting.

“An...

Chapter 2: First Encounter

Unaware that her secrets had already been uncovered, Hikari walked through the streets of Konoha.

She ignored the bustling crowd around her, focusing instead on channeling chakra into her heart.

The Byakugan drank in energy, restoring her vision.

Bzzzt!

A clear, 360-degree panoramic view flooded her senses—bringing with it an overwhelming sense of security.

The streets were wide enough for three carriages to pass side by side. D...

*Chapter 56: Identity Exposed*

"Challenging a hidden village is no easy feat—even a Tailed Beast can suffer a crushing defeat!"

Back at his post, Yoru couldn’t help but reflect on the recent chaos.

In a way, he owed thanks to the Two-Tails, Matatabi.

Before its rampage, Yoru’s performance had been too outstanding—enough to draw unwanted attention. But now, with the Tailed Beast stealing the spotlight, his achievements seemed fa...

*Chapter 361: Who Are You Talking To? A Lightning Strike That Shakes the Earth!*

At this moment,

A figure, as if emerging from the wilderness, drenched in blood and covered in sharp wounds, slowly stepped out of the Tenshukaku.

His long, grizzled hair and beard fluttered even without wind. His fierce and indifferent gaze swept past the three members of Akatsuki,

And then,

It landed on Jiraiya!

The next instant—

"Here he comes!"

Chapter 271: The Jimmy Feather Show

“It’s exactly as you say,” Allen replied with a serious expression, his tone calm, as laughter erupted from the live audience of The Jimmy Feather Show. He was responding to host Jimmy Kimmel’s playful question.

“I found a broken camcorder at the scene of that superhero battle in New York. I extracted the footage from it, and that’s how this ‘documentary’ came to be.”

Without a doubt, the studio audience br...

*Chapter 226: Haku's Arrival*

Hearing a noise at the door, Hattori raised an eyebrow and quickly tucked away the Flying Thunder God scroll. With a warm smile, he walked over to open the door.

"Haku, I've been waiting for you for days!"

Standing at the entrance was none other than Haku, who had previously escorted Momochi Zabuza away.

Haku had changed into a floral-patterned kimono and was maskless, revealing a delicate, pretty face.

Chapter 59: Hearts United as One

Tick-tock, tick-tock... The minute hand had quietly moved past the five o'clock mark. Night had entered its darkest and most tiring hour before dawn. The test of energy and stamina had reached its most severe stage. Predictably, the surging crowd at the Old Ironworks Bar had begun to gradually thin out.

Looking around, the venue was still filled with people, and the lively scene seemed unchanged. But if you paid close attention, you could clearly notice that the gaps between peop...

Chapter 58: Ignite the Passion

Standing beside the stairs leading up to the stage, Ronan gently clenched his fists, then opened them, then clenched them again, repeating the same motion. He was trying to calm his wildly beating heart, but it wasn't working. The thumping in his chest not only didn't slow down but actually sped up, almost making Ronan doubt what he'd just said:

Is it really that hard for a heart to burst?

The pounding was so intense and fierce that it made him breathless, his surg...

Chapter 57: Ready to Go

Noticing Ronan's calm and composed gaze, Maxim's thoughts gradually settled down, and his scattered mind returned to focus. They needed to prioritize, but Maxim still grumbled a couple of times, "You're changing the subject now, don't think I don't see it."

Ronan didn't deny it, meeting Maxim's gaze directly, as if to say: Yeah, yeah, you're right, so what are you going to do about it?

Maxim's retort got stuck in his throat, and in the end, he didn't say anything more. "We'...

Chapter 56: All-Night Party

Ollie and Maxim couldn't help but laugh as they watched Ronan's face contort and his body curl up. The black coffee was truly potent – and the restaurant's wasn't exactly top-shelf, tasting more like ash water. Still, Ronan's reaction was a bit dramatic.

Cliff, on the other hand, seemed completely unfazed. He finished his espresso in one go and then told Ronan, "Down your coffee, let's get ready to head out!"

They weren't drinking the coffee because it tasted good, but to...

Chapter 115: Cutting Deep

The influence of Star Wars was unreal, especially with this version helmed by Hollywood’s hottest blockbuster director, Dunn Walker.

A lot of countries had local film protection policies, so they’d dodged Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace during the summer rush, scared it’d steamroll their homegrown movies.

That dragged down its overseas box office—by mid-October, it had only hit $450 million abroad.

Add that to the $550 million ...

Chapter 114: Disney’s Revenge

Blockbusters usually wrap up faster than indie films.

Take Tom Hanks’ Cast Away—a ten-month shoot. Two months on, six months off for him to drop weight and nail that stranded-on-an-island look, then two more months to finish. In that six-month break, director Robert Zemeckis even squeezed in a commercial flick for DreamWorks, What Lies Beneath.

Spider-Man? Three months, start to finish.

Dunn booked three soundstages from Twentieth Centur...

Chapter 113: The Explosion Scene

By September, Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace had racked up $530 million in North America, though its growth had slowed to a crawl. Overseas, it was still chugging along, pulling in over $400 million so far.

Beating Titanic’s box office legend—both in North America and globally—was off the table, but snagging the title of the second film ever to break $1 billion worldwide? That was looking like a sure thing.

Meanwhile, Dunn Films’ ...
