*Chapter 65: Intense Battle, Speed vs. Speed (Part 2)*

"0-15!"

The silence on the court was broken by the umpire's announcement of the score.

"No way... Tachibana-senpai..."

On Fudomine's side, Ishida, Sakurai, and the others couldn't believe their eyes. "He didn’t even react in time?"

"He’s too fast!"

Kamio and Ibu were equally stunned.

"That guy’s reaction speed is terrifying!"

Outside the court, Inui couldn’t help but marvel.

Ishikawa’s half-volley was executed at the perfect mom...

*Chapter 64: The Pressure of the Kyushu Duo (Part 1)* (no ch 63)

“Is that him? Mr. X?”

The moment they saw Ishikawa, Shinji and Takeshi from Fudomine, along with Tachibana’s sister, Akari, who was outside the court, and the spectators, Izumi and Fukawa, all wore expressions of shock.

“H-how is this possible?”

Shinji and Takeshi exchanged glances, both seeing the astonishment in each other’s eyes.

The mysterious and powerful ruler of the street tennis courts was actually a member of Hyotei?

“Huh?”

H...

*Chapter 62: Singles 3, Ishikawa vs. Tachibana*

"Hyotei... actually lost?"

Inui stared in shock as Kurokawa and Kano, exhausted, walked off the court. The reigning champions of last year's Tokyo Metropolitan Tournament had lost their very first match?

Even if it was just their second-string players, this was still unbelievable!

"Fudomine, huh?"

Outside the court, Atobe, with his arms crossed, narrowed his eyes. "To go from an unknown third-rate team to the quarterfinals of the Metropolitan Tournament,...

“How could she do this? Seven years… seven whole years of love!”

“A divorce? Fine! If she wants to leave, then leave! I signed it. I really signed it!”

“I’ll never love again!”

“…”

For the next few days, similar waves of anger, complaints, sorrow, and all kinds of negative emotions continued to radiate from Ross, to the point where Adam started visiting less frequently.

Every time he came ov...

At Apartment 520.

“What? You're moving out?”

Monica was shocked. “Why?”

“Remember why I moved out of the school dorm in the first place?”

Adam pointed at Monica’s dark circles and smiled, “The walls here aren’t soundproof enough. I think it’s better for me to find my own place so I don’t keep you up at night.”

“It’s fine. It was just the New Year’s party. I get it. It was a one-time thing.”

Monica tried to ...

New Year's Day.

Morning.

Apartment 520.

"Morning~"

"Morning~"

Caroline, who had stayed over, bumped into Monica outside the bathroom. They exchanged an awkward yet polite smile.

"Someone's glowing with happiness today~"

Seeing Caroline's radiant face and remembering the noises from the early morning that led to her own dark circles, Monica couldn't help but tease.

"Sorry, did we wake you?"

Caroline, now well-versed...

*On the Plane.*

"I’ll go with you."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone turned to look at her.

"I mean, thank you, but we only need one seat," she calmly explained.

She was a girl with single eyelids and a mature-looking face. She added, "My mom has an urgent matter and must take this flight. I’m fine staying behind. If each family sends one person, it’s fairer that way."

"No need," Adam responded with a smile. "Since it�...

A flight attendant picked up the intercom and began an announcement.

“Attention, everyone. Due to overbooking by two seats, we are looking for two volunteers to take the next flight. As a token of our appreciation, we will provide each volunteer with a ticket to any destination of their choice.”

Inside the cabin, passengers looked at each other in silence.

Even with the compensation, no one was willing to volu...

Chapter 94: The Whole Family Mobilizes

The next two weeks flew by.

Adam, Juno, and Karen spent their days surrounded by the sounds of gunfire.

From handguns to rifles, from stationary targets to moving ones, from close-range solo shooting to long-range team combat—their shooting accuracy and speed improved rapidly.

To Old Mike, Adam was clearly just there to show off. His shooting skills were on another level—so much so that even Old Mike himself couldn’t compare.

Eventually, Old Mike stopped p...

*Chapter 760: Allocation and Thoughts*

Crackle! A blinding flash of lightning suddenly lit up the night. On the island under the dark sky, Seimei was completely enveloped in lightning. The electric arcs coiled around him like writhing snakes—slithering over his body, burrowing in, then darting out—causing his muscles to spasm and his face to contort into grimaces. This intense state continued for several minutes before gradually subsiding.

At that moment, Seimei opened his mouth and exhaled a wisp of pale black sm...

*Chapter 759: Massive Boost and Considerations*

The moment the thought struck him, Seimei paused his “Chakra Refining Technique” and began testing how fast his body could naturally recover chakra.

Not long ago, his “Constitution” attribute had jumped by two points, which resulted in a huge increase in the amount of chakra he could freely use every day. Now, his “Spirit” attribute had risen by three points. Even more, during this period it balanced out with his “Constitution” attribute, releasing some of the pot...

Chapter 3: Seizing Control

Bill Mechanic was furious!

Last year, the movie he backed, Die Hard with a Vengeance, topped the box office. This year, his latest project, Independence Day, also became a massive hit. So who could say that Titanic wouldn't surprise the world in 1997?

Bill Mechanic was obsessed with power. He despised the feeling of his subordinates banding together to counterbalance his authority.

James Cameron couldn't be replaced!

*Chapter 2: Changing the Director?*

A high-level meeting was taking place at 20th Century Fox.

The room was filled with smoke, and five men sat around a circular table, all with grim expressions.

Present were Co-Chairman and CEO Bill Mechanic, Co-Chairman and President Tom Rothman, COO Jack Howard, Head of Production Jim Gianopulos, and Producer Grant Hill, who was also overseeing "Titanic."

Jack Howard was the first to speak, his frustration evident. "James is asking for too much. This is already affec...

"Heh, this is ridiculous!"

Walker had been browsing street stalls, hoping to find a cool pair of sunglasses, when—out of nowhere—someone smacked him on the back of the head with a brick.

When he woke up, everything had changed. His identity, his body, his nationality… even the timeline.

It was now the autumn of 1996.

His new name? Dunn. Dunn Williams Walker.

He was eighteen years old and worked in the film industry. More specifically, he wa...

The Tsuchigumo clan on Katsuragi Mountain suffered a devastating attack, leaving only a group of young survivors who "miraculously" escaped. This incident, already a significant event in the wave of clan exterminations, has escalated to a critical level. Previously, the motivation behind uncovering the truth lay in the survivors’ requests and the need to investigate the unidentified forces within the Land of Fire.

Wayne had reached a level of wealth where he could easily buy the rights to remake a film himself, or even persuade Jin Yong to retract his own rights to remake it. Even when it came to connections within the government, Wayne had more than enough ways to get things done.

Wasn’t it clear? The vice presidents of two major academies, as well as Zhang Yimou and Han Sanping, were all there to support Wayne.

Wayne didn’t even have to offer much—just a promise to prioritize...

Early the next morning.

Reaching out with his hand, Milo felt nothing but empty air. Slowly opening his sleepy eyes, he realized the president's daughter was no longer by his side.

He yawned, a bit lazily, then sat up, got out of bed, grabbed his robe, and put it on. Heading into the bathroom, he began his morning routine.

The space was a luxurious ambassador suite, approximately 120 square m...

“Long time no see, Allen.”

In Los Angeles, at Universal Pictures’ office.

Ron Meyer greeted Allen warmly as he approached, giving him a brief hug.

“It’s been a while,” he said in a tone that conveyed how much time had passed.

Since the Writers Guild strike began, all members had been prohibited from discussing new script ideas with production companies. As a result, while Ron Meyer and Allen had spoken frequently over the phone...

"How can you leave home without money?"

"Here, take this!"

It was early morning, around 8 a.m.

At the gates of Konoha, a heavily pregnant Mikoto Uchiha was helping Uchiha Shinji fasten the straps of his vest. She then discreetly handed him a bankbook, giving the young man a gentle, big-sisterly smile despite meeting him for the first time.

“This... this is too much!”

*Chapter 1176: The Self-Righteous*

Jack was furious.

His emotions finally spiraled out of control.

He couldn’t understand—nor did he want to—why chasing a role and seizing an opportunity had to make him the villain.

“I thought you always prided yourself on being honest and aboveboard.”

Jack looked at Anson, unable to hide his disappointment.

Anson simply laughed.

The one who stabbed him in the back was now accusing him...

*Chapter 758: Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan*

“Breathe in… breathe out…”

He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. After a long while, Seimei’s mood finally settled.

Without hesitation, he raised his hand to form seals and activated the Heart Reflection Technique, initiating the process to stimulate his brain into producing that special chakra—the very kind that drives the evolution of the Sharingan. Then, he channeled it directly to his eyes.

That familiar tingling sensation washed over him again. Se...

*Chapter 757: Completion*

On a giant boulder, Seimei opened his eyes. He glanced at his left arm—now nearly restored to its original state—and muttered, “Is this the limit?” Even as he spoke, his brows furrowed ever so slightly, betraying his dissatisfaction.

In truth, that was exactly the case.

Even though his left arm appeared to have returned to normal, with those horrifying “worms” beneath his skin now gone, it was nothing more than a facade. Thanks to the exceptional control over hi...

*The Duncan Household*

That night.

Since the basement had been taken over by Teddy, Adam had no choice but to sleep in the attic on the third floor.

In the future, when Duncan No. 5 or even Duncan No. 6 arrived, staying at home would become even more troublesome.

But this was just another American quirk.

Look at Monica—when she started working, her bedroom was immediately turned into a gym.

Later, her parents even sold the hous...

*The Duncan Household*

Everyone was delighted with Adam’s gifts.

“Dad, let’s stop at Duncan #5. Please, no Duncan #6,” Adam urged. “Back then, Teddy and I helped out, so it wasn’t too hard on you guys. But next year, Teddy and I will both be off to college. We won’t be home. Are you really planning to leave Charlie and Duncan #5 in Gabe’s care?”

“Stop calling them Duncan #5 and Duncan #6. It sounds awful,” Mom, Amy, interrupted, cl...

On the way.

The car sped down the road.

Ever since Adam invited Juno to go hunting, she had been thrilled, constantly coming up with ideas.

In the U.S., hunting is legal, but there are relatively strict regulations.

First, you need to obtain a hunting license.

The U.S. has done an excellent job of protecting its natural environment, but as a result, certain animal populations sometimes grow out of control, disrupting the ecosystem.

“Yes, it’s Amazing Amy.”

Juno spoke the name Adam least wanted to hear.

“Who’s Amazing Amy?”

Monica and the others were completely lost.

Of course, they had never read Amazing Amy, the parenting book series about a strict ‘Tiger Mom’ and her extraordinary daughter.

“Adam’s ex-girlfriend.”

The next moment, Juno’s explanation set off an explosion of reactions.

“First match, Doubles 2.”

“Hyotei Academy’s Hayata Shuno and Shunsuke Kurokawa pair versus Fudomine’s Tetsu Ishida and Masaya Sakurai pair.”

As the referee’s voice fell, the noisy court instantly quieted down.

Everyone’s attention turned to the players from both sides.

“Two second-years?” Hayata from Hyotei couldn’t help but laugh when he saw his opponents. “I don’t know how Fudomine even made it to the quarterfinals.”
