While Menma's shadow clone was playing house with Naruto and Hinata-
Menma's real body had already left Orochimaru's hideout. Using the Flying Thunder God’s mark he had previously left in a coastal area of southern Land of Hot Water, he instantly teleported to the Land of Hot Water.
This was a dock warehouse in a coastal city of Land of Hot Water. It was purchased and then sealed off by the Gato Company.
Menma checked the Flying Thunder God kunai in the warehouse's secret ...

After all the commotion, the Toad Sage of Mount Myoboku managed to make his escape.
Meanwhile, Naruto and Karin had already slipped away from the crowd and found another bathhouse to wash up.
"Hey, hey, what are you doing here, kid?"
Just as the two had finished bathing and sat down at a hot spring-themed barbecue restaurant, Jiraiya popped out of nowhere.
Seeing this scene, Karin subconsciously wanted to use the Adamantine Sealing Chains that she had just mastered to ...

It wasn't until the sun was high in the sky that Karin finally woke up in the inn's bed.
To be fair, this wasn't entirely her fault. After last night's attack, Naruto had spent most of the night dealing with Hidan.
They hadn't returned to the inn until the early hours of the morning.
After yawning, Karin resisted the urge to sleep to wash up, change clothes, and head out to buy some breakfast before knocking on Naruto's door.
"Naruto-san, I brought you some breakfast."...

"I live in the suburbs of London and came here for vacation, but I’m actually not very interested in the forest or Shakespeare’s birthplace."
On the way to the apartment, Hermione suddenly turned to look at Harry and said.
Harry was caught off guard by her sudden movement and could only reply vaguely.
"Uh, yeah, that does sound a bit boring."
"You already know quite a bit about me. Out of courtesy, you should introduce yourself too, right?" Seeing that Harry was be...

While Severus and Arthur muttered quietly to each other, Hermione’s gaze remained fixed on the streetlamp, which circuit cover was already opened by Arthur.

Seven days later, Law and his group arrived at Goro Kingdom.
The supplies carried by the three armored bulls weren’t enough to last them the entire journey, but William was very familiar with the desert.
From subtle clues, he managed to find sources of water in the form of plants and animals, ensuring that Buhara wouldn’t die of thirst.
Goro was one of the three major oasis kingdoms, sharing many similarities with the other two. The most crucial water sources were enclos...

Under the thunderous sky, the giant shark covered in layered scales was split in half midair.
It then swept past both sides of the Purple Smoke, leaving behind a torrent of blood before vanishing into the towering waves in the blink of an eye.

Before this, the companions, who were familiar with Moses’s abilities, had ever se...

And the red tide of unknown origin also disappeared after sinking into the water.

Not to mention that they have plenty of time for their voyage, but even if they were pressed for time, Morel would still prioritize safety.

On the outskirts of Konoha Village, the wide Naka River meandered along the village's edge, flowing through dense forests before eventually merging into the distant sea.
Amidst these woods, several small streams dotted the landscape, adding a touch of liveliness to the lush greenery.
Menma, Naruto, and Big Sis Hinata ran all the way before stopping by a small river.
"This is my secret base!" Naruto excitedly introduced the place to Menma and Hinata.

A clear child's voice pierced the silence of the training room, interrupting the boy's contemplation.
Menma walked out of the training room and approached the second-floor window, pulling it open to see a small figure waving energetically below.

In fact, Naruto had already arrived long ago.
He had simply been hiding his presence while observing from the sidelines.
The purpose is very simple, which is to give Karin some real combat experience.
At the same time, he was testing whether Karin could remain calm in the face of danger.
These guys were nothing more than low-tier thugs, with the only one capable of using Ninjutsu limited to basic attacks like the Water Wave Technique.
No matter what happened, Nar...

Boom! Boom! Boom!
The explosion tags detonated right in their faces, instantly blasting the Jashin cult members off their feet.
However, since these exploding tags were just ‘common goods’ Naruto had scavenged from bounty hunters, their power was far from comparable to those used by a certain Paper Release Ninja.
But Karin’s goal wasn’t just to injure them.
The explosions echoed through the entire street, and even though this area was far from populated, someon...

England, Nottinghamshire, the capital city of Nottingham. In an old, dilapidated house on the outskirts.

The choking dust, stirred up by the green flames, sent all three into a fit of coughing.

In a dark, cramped corner of the ceiling, a spider was spinning its web.
By chance, a flying insect had blundered into its killing zone and was now tightly ensnared in the silken threads. The spider darted swiftly across the web, steadily spitting out more silk, effortlessly tangling with the struggling, dying insect.
"Will I die from the bite, Remus?"
"No..."
"Don’t hide it from me. I already understand. I don’t blame you, Remus. I know you’re not like them."

Fatima wasn’t some pampered princess who couldn’t handle the sight of blood. She had a decent tolerance for gore, but even she couldn’t stomach the scene before her, as nearly a hundred sand bandits had their heads blown apart.

The Black Whale 1, fully loaded with 200,000 sacrifices, sailed away from the port under the watchful eyes of countless spectators, eventually shrinking to a black dot on the horizon.
Then, from an inconspicuous small harbor, another ocean-going vessel named Purple Smoke also set sail toward the distant sea.
In the captain’s cabin, Morel steered the ship while monitoring the navigation status.

At the center of the lab, on the operating table, lay a pale corpse, serving as the focal point of the entire room.

His pupils contracted slightly, his voice trembling with excitement: "This is truly unbelievable... absolu...

Konoha Village was still bathed in gentle sunlight, and the Uchiha Clan’s compound was no exception, embraced by the soft morning glow.
Izumi woke up from her sleep, with beads of sweat clinging to her temples.
She had spent far too long trapped in that Genjutsu World, leading to a night of endless nightmares. Each time she jolted awake, she was terrified that she was still in that illusion, forced to relive the massacre of her clan.

After waking up for who knows how many times, Izumi once again found herself by the banks of the Naka River.
The setting sun dyed the sky crimson, wild geese skimmed across the twilight, and a flock of ducks played in the river, their cheerful quacks echoing in the air.
After being ‘killed’ countless times, the light in Izumi's eyes had gradually dulled.
Under the relentless assault of Genjutsu, she could no longer distinguish whether this was reality or illusion.

But she was a step too late. The teenage Itachi's short sword had already slashed across the child's throat, and the bloodied edge flicked upward with precision, deflecting the incoming kunai.

Amid the metallic clash, the blade obscured half of Itachi's face, leaving only his left eye, a crimson Mangekyo Sharingan, glowing ominously in the shadows.
