After distancing themselves from the frenzied dragon herd, Severus and the others' journey became much smoother.
Apart from the animals also fleeing westward from the nature reserve due to the dragon rampage, they encountered no further mishaps. After another day and a half of travel, they finally reached their destination.
The area had already been properly cleared by Lupin. The various logs processed earlier in the valley had also been transported to this open space by the river...

Regarding resurrection, not only was Law unwilling to believe it, even Ellie, who had proposed the possibility, was essentially just hypothesizing.
If the hypothesis were true, it would mean that as long as the corpse was well-preserved, the soul could be revived… though it would require a long period of nurturing.
Regardless, Ellie's Soul Mimic, despite its clear flaws and strengths, had been refined into such a peculiar Nen Ability, proving that Ellie’s talent was quite rema...

The neatly sorted documents on the desk scattered to the ground as both hands slammed onto the table.
Processed and unprocessed files mixed together, meaning they would have to be reorganized all over again.
Yet Ellie didn’t care at all. Ignoring the fluttering papers, she quickly ran toward Law and threw herself at him.
The stern, cold expression on her face melted away, replaced by a joyful excitement, like a fluttering fairy.
Seeing Ellie rush over so enthusiastic...

North Blue, Avignon Island.
"This is the most famous tourist city in the North Blue. Also, here's the thing I promised you!"
Doflamingo, standing on the ship's railing, tossed down a purple honeydew melon with a spiral pattern.
"This is the other fruit left from our heist this time. It's suspected to be a Zoan-type, but its information can't be found in the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia."
"So, eating it could either make someone incredibly powerful overnight, or it could ru...

A warm wind blew, carrying moisture over a large ship shaped like a flamingo.
Dark, oppressive waves crashed against the hull, the hard wood groaning and creaking in protest.
One moment tossed high into the air by the waves, the next plunging into a trough, almost completely swallowed by the sea.
Even in such terrible sailing weather, it was hard to suppress the joy of the people on board at having survived a close brush with death.
"To think we actually managed to esc...

As Kyoya's disciple, Byakuya knew that the flying slash of a Great Swordsman could rival the power of Hado #60.
And the flying slash of a Master Swordsman was no weaker than Hado #80.
For a Master Swordsman like Kyoya, even a casual flying slash could unleash destructive power comparable to Hado #90.
Whether it was a Great Swordsman or Master Swordsman, the energy consumed by their flying slashes was far less than that required to cast Hado of the same level.
After all...

"Haah!"
In the training ground, Byakuya swung his Zanpakuto wildly, launching a fierce assault on Kyoya.
Clang!
Clang, clang, clang, clang!
Kyoya raised a single finger, effortlessly blocking Byakuya's attacks.
Each slash from Byakuya's Zanpakuto struck Kyoya's finger, yet not even a scratch was left on his skin. Instead, the force of his own strikes rebounded, nearly wrenching the sword from his grip.
Had Byakuya not been trained by Kyoya and built a solid...

Before the words fully faded, Shisui felt a broad, gloved hand gently rest on his shoulder.
The next moment!
Without any warning, without any sensation of spatial distortion!
Shisui only felt an unpleasant twisting of his body!

Danzo's withered fingers were tightly clutching a freshly plucked eyeball, still warm with blood and attached nerves… a Mangekyo Sharingan that had just been torn from its socket!
The eyeball trembled slightly under the moonlight, its scarlet pupil still faintly glowing with a pinwheel pattern not yet fully faded!
His face was expressionless, but his single eye visible beneath the bandages gleamed with a beast-like greed, as if he had seized a priceless treasure!

In just one encounter, Animal Path was taken down, and Preta Path was half-crippled. Only Asura Path could barely put up a fight against Karin.
And this was while Karin hadn't even used her full abilities.
Meanwhile, Naruto had already dismantled one Pain and was about to press forward when Deva Path’s skill cooldown finally ended.

Another wave of repulsive force spread out.
This time, Nagato used more Chakra, aiming to completely create distan...

After clearing the area with one strike, Naruto closed his eyes and released his Observation Haki to begin sensing.
The range of his full-power Observation Haki perception was already ridiculously large.
Now, maintaining Sage Mode long-term further enhanced his perception.
Covering the entire Land of Rain was probably impossible, but scanning all of Amegakure was absolutely more than enough.
Due to his Conqueror's Haki, almost no one in Amegakure could still move.

The mountain wind after autumn’s arrival wasn’t quite biting, but it was cold enough to seep into one’s veins.
On the cliff’s edge lay a recently deceased corpse, chilled by the mountain breeze.
Beside it sprawled a man with his limbs twisted into unnatural angles, his thick eyebrows furrowed as low groans mingled with the howling wind.

This is something all prominent business figures understand well, which is why they place extreme emphasis on security.

Garp raised his fist behind him. Suddenly, the wind died down and the sea calmed.
But both combatants on the battlefield knew better… this was the calm before the storm.

After memorizing all the planned road routes marked on the map, Kyoya turned and left the Captain's quarters.
As he walked forward, Jidanbo, the guardian of the White Road Gate, immediately knelt on one knee upon seeing Kyoya. Kyoya gave him a slight nod without saying anything and passed through.
Over the past few years, members of the 11th Division had frequently come and gone through the White Road Gate. Even Kyoya himself passed through once or twice every month, so he and Jid...

The abandoned temple outside Konoha Village. Two massive, painted Buddha statues at the entrance stood like weathered skeletons in the twilight, moaning and groaning in the night wind. The air was thick with the decaying scent of stale incense ash, rotten wood, and damp earth.
Withered yellow weeds stubbornly poked through the rubble and debris, only to be weighed down by the night dew.
Twelve figures, like ink seeping from the ground, merged silently into the various shadowy corn...

Autumn Year 56 of Konoha Calendar, with a hint of coolness.
The Naka Shrine was hidden deep within a dense maple forest, its vermilion torii gate like a blood-soaked wound under the pale moonlight.
Inside the main hall of the shrine, the air was stagnant as lead.
The flickering candlelight in the enclosed space cast shifting shadows on the massive Uchiha Clan’s fan crest on the wall, the red and white pattern seeming ready to drip blood at any moment in the gloom.

The reason Orochimaru chose to strike at this particular moment to target the Jinchuriki was actually closely related to Naruto.
After their parting at the Southern Hideout, he had been waiting for Naruto to bring his clone back.
Of course, with Orochimaru's intelligence, he had certainly considered the possibility that Naruto might break the contract.
He also didn't believe such methods could truly threaten the other party.
