Chapter 107: It's Common Sense That Fast People Are Always Late

"I didn’t think even the strongest Shinigami in Soul Society would be late... old man."

Masatsuki Aozaki collapsed onto his knees, trembling, his hands pressed against the ground, a smug grin on his face.

Blood dripped from every inch of his battered body, pooling beneath him in streaks of black and red.

Pain coursed through his entire being. Every muscle felt drained of strength, and the dizziness from excessive blood loss hit him in waves, lulling him toward unconsciousn...

Chapter 63: You Won't Unleash Its Power That Way

Germa Kingdom.

Training ground.

All unrelated personnel had been cleared out. Clone soldiers from Germa 66 stood in formation, forming a human wall around the training ground—silent and still like cold statues.

Led by Daren, the senior officers of the North Blue Marines stood at the center, watching as Germa soldiers carried in heavy, sealed crates one after another.

“As per our agreement, this is the first batch of military tech weapons you requested,”

Vin...

Chapter 62: The Meeting

The next day…

North Blue, waters near an isolated island.

The sky was clear, the sea a deep blue. White seagulls soared freely across the cloudless sky, gliding toward the distant horizon. A warship cruised slowly along the surface, leaving a long white trail in its wake.

“How much longer until we arrive?”

Rogers Daren stood at the bow, arms crossed and a lit cigar between his teeth. His spotless white cape fluttered behind him in the breeze.

“Just a few ...

Chapter 106: The Captain's Soul

The rapidly rising heat fueled Kenpachi Kiganjō’s rage as he let out a furious howl, stepping forward and swinging a massive fist straight at Masatsuki Aozaki’s head.

Bang!

Masatsuki Aozaki blocked the attack with Banshō Senran, parrying it just as his leg whipped around and struck Kiganjō square in the stomach.

Blow after blow, they clashed relentlessly. With each exchange, flames erupted from Kenpachi Kiganjō’s body, burning hotter and hotter.

Swords met sw...

Chapter 134: The Jaegers

We're all adults here—this isn't just a game.

If neither side is willing to compromise, a battle is inevitable.

Chelsea really didn’t want to end up as an enemy of Blayn and the others if there was any way to avoid it.

With these thoughts weighing on her mind, she found herself caring less about what had just happened between Kurome and Esdeath.

After thinking it over, Chelsea decided it would be best to talk to Blayn directly.

A moment later, she suddenly sp...

Chapter 402: Outrageous Demand

“Lord Akatsukikage, the sincerity of our Kumogakure is evident to all.”

“Can you give us a definite answer today?”

In the secret meeting room of Akatsukigakure, a young, dark-skinned man fixed his gaze on Yahiko, who sat in the chair of honor. His yellowish hair was neatly slicked back, and he wore heavy armor, making it clear he was not someone to be taken lightly.

“This matter is of great importance, and we still need more time,” Yahiko replied reflexively, his...

Chapter 401: Karin Senju

The Konoha Cemetery.

Mito had been resting here for a full year now. The flowers before her gravestone had long since withered, their once-vibrant petals reduced to brittle remnants. It seemed that no one had visited for some time.

The cemetery was mostly quiet, with only a few scattered visitors paying respects to old friends and loved ones.

In the distance, six figures slowly approached.

"It’s been a while since we last visited Grandma," Tsunade said. Her tone was ...

Chapter 242: War is Always Ever-Changing

Konoha Hokage Office Building, meeting room...

It was still the familiar Konoha F4, but this time, Tsunade was present as well.

Kazuyama was clinging to the Sword of the Thunder God like his life depended on it, grinning from ear to ear. He looked downright ridiculous.

“Alright, alright, the sword is yours. No need to act like that.”

“Tch, I don’t even know if giving you my great-uncle’s weapon is a good thing or a mistake.”

Tsunade shot him a look of...

Chapter 241: One of the Big Bosses Appears

Land of Hot Water, Southern Coast...

"So, Raiga Kurosuki and Mangetsu Hōzuki are both dead?"

"The mission to assassinate the Daimyō failed, and the Lightning Blades Kiba was taken as well."

"Heh... Jūzō Biwa, tell me, why do you still have the nerve to come back?"

Sitting atop a rock, a middle-aged man with black hair kept his eyes closed, a hint of displeasure tugging at the corner of his mouth. Before him stood a group of Kirigakure shinobi, led by none other tha...

Chapter 61: The Underworld of the North Blue Is Ours

Stepping out of the dim hall, Daren lit a fresh cigar and stretched lazily.

The crumbling courtyard was overgrown with dead ivy, tangled around the ruins of a collapsed fountain. The night was bleak, the moonlight cold and pale as it spilled down from above.

Momonga stood silently in the shadows of the wall, completely motionless. He blended into the surrounding architecture so seamlessly it was as if he were part of it. For a full hour, he hadn’t moved a muscle or even shifted ...

Chapter 105: Masatsuki-chan

Several towering pillars of flame erupted from the distant ground, and a pair of bare, pale feet stepped out from the inferno.

Kenpachi Kiganjō's gaze followed upward, locking onto Masatsuki Aozaki as he emerged from the swirling flames, moving as if he were merely taking a leisurely stroll.

A wave of intense heat washed over him, making his rocky skin feel as if it were softening. A stinging burn prickled across his body.

His vaunted defense, once his pride, now made him f...

Chapter 133: The Unyielding Kurome

In every sense, this situation was bound to be unpleasant for any girl.

Kurome's face darkened as she forcefully pushed Esdeath away. She had been squeezed so tightly just now that she could barely breathe.

Because of Kurome’s push, Esdeath failed to kiss Blayn.

“Can you not interfere when I’m getting close to Blayn?” Esdeath asked with a pleasant smile, her tone seemingly friendly.

In truth, she hadn’t entirely meant for things to play out that way. The only...

Chapter 104: All Things in the Universe, Turn to Ash

“No need for Bankai… You really are stubborn.”

Masatsuki Aozaki licked his lips.

For a moment, he thought he heard a girl’s light laughter, accompanied by the chirping of birds.

“My little sister can be a bit headstrong. She really shouldn’t be keeping secrets from you at a time like this.”

A playful voice came from behind him as a girl wrapped her arms around him, placing her hands over his as he gripped his sword.

“But don’t be too hard on her...

Chapter 60: My Godson

Hatred is a strange emotion.

It blends the fury of injustice with the urge to destroy.

Time, place, even the passing of years can’t erode it.

The most terrifying part is this—once the seed of hatred is planted, nothing can uproot it.

It takes root deep inside, grows quietly, slowly, until one day it becomes a towering tree that dominates a person’s entire life.

It drives them forward, obsessively, recklessly—willing to pay any price to reach their goal. 2025-03-30 23:31:42 +0000 UTC View Post

Chapter 132: A Soul-Crushing “Humiliation”

Esdeath was not at all surprised by the Three Beasts' response.

Their loyalty had been tested countless times, and given the personalities and past experiences of Liver, Nyau, and Daidara, betrayal was never an option for them.

Liver, for instance, had once been a general of the Empire before being persecuted by Prime Minister Honest. He had long lost faith in the Empire, and when Esdeath rescued him from prison, he swore to follow only her.

To him, whether Esdeath sided wit...

Chapter 131: Subjugating Esdeath

“Being a slave isn’t necessary… Just join my organization. If you’re looking for a fight, once Honest falls, the foreign nations will likely start stirring as well.”

Blayn knew how much Esdeath loved battle, so he considered her feelings—just as she had considered his.

From an outsider’s perspective, the fall of Prime Minister Honest would throw the Empire into chaos.

With the inevitable clash between the Akatsuki Organization and the Revolutionary Army, it was...

Chapter 103: No Bankai Needed

Kenpachi Kiganjō spread his massive hands wide before slamming them down onto the ground.

Jagged stone pillars erupted from beneath, surging toward Masatsuki Aozaki like the fangs of a beast.

“Inuga Gantotsu!” (Fang Rock Pursuit)

Masatsuki burst through the rising dust, lightning crackling wildly across his back and shoulders as he darted through the Colosseum at breakneck speed.

Blood dripped onto the ground—his left shoulder had been pierced.

“What ins...

Chapter 59: The Devil’s Murmur

"Complaining about everything, blaming your father—what did you actually do?"

Daren’s voice dripped with scorn and mockery, merciless as ever.

He looked at the blond brat in front of him, blood dripping from his mouth, his face twisting into something more feral by the second. A faint smile flickered in the depths of Daren’s half-lidded eyes, growing ever stronger.

Go on. Say it.

Spit out the rage and hatred buried deepest in your heart.

Doflamingo clenched...

Chapter 240: A Reward? How About the Sword of the Thunder God?

Konoha, Hokage’s Office.

“So, the Daimyō really does have another motive?”

“Forming his own ninja army…?”

“Hey, isn’t Konoha already the military force of the Land of Fire? The fact that he’s doing this is really disappointing.”

The Third Hokage, Hiruzen, frowned deeply.

Kazuyama had returned to the village and immediately sold out the Daimyō’s plans.

Every little detail—bribery, the formation of a personal ninja force—he reporte...

Chapter 239: Truly a Sensei in Every Sense

"That's enough, Sensei!”

“This is the tenth tube of blood—I’m gonna pass out from anemia!"

Kazuyama sipped the potion, glancing at the needle in his arm. He felt absolutely terrible.

The potion, specially crafted by Orochimaru, was highly effective in replenishing blood. The taste wasn’t bad either—he had to admit, his sensei was truly exceptional in pharmacology.

But as he drank, something felt off.

Then Orochimaru spoke.

“Do you like it? I m...

Chapter 400: Itachi Uchiha

When one person leaves, another arrives—that is life.

It had been a long time since Mito had left, and Kawakaze and the others had returned to their normal lives. However, they still occasionally thought of the kind woman, and it never failed to bring a hint of sadness.

Today, the setting sun once again bathed Konoha in a golden light.

“Mikoto is in the hospital, isn't she?” Kawakaze started the conversation at the Hatake Clan’s dinner table.

“Yes, she should...

Chapter 399: Mito's Passing

After Orochimaru finished his brief examination of Minato and Kushina, the group gathered around Mito.

"Grandma~"

Kushina looked at Mito's frail appearance, and tears fell uncontrollably. Seeing her like this, Minato felt a sorrow welling up in his chest.

Orochimaru remained expressionless. Partings were always painful.

Fugaku opened his mouth but found himself at a loss for words. At this moment, he was merely an outsider.

"How is it?"

Sakumo had sent ANBU...

Chapter 102: Beg for Mercy

“Lieutenant Ōmaeda! What is that!?”

"Two powerful Reiatsu are clashing! One of them feels like 3rd Seat Masatsuki's—he's already reached the 3rd Rank of Reiatsu!"

“It’s coming from the direction of the Nest of Maggots! Have they been attacked by the rebels too?”

Not far from the Nest of Maggots, in the 2nd Division barracks, a group of soldiers locked in battle with the rebels suddenly shouted excitedly:

"Lieutenant! The Nest of Maggots has fallen… Kenpa...

Chapter 130: A Forceful Kiss for Blayn—This Is the First Kiss

Since the first form wasn’t enough, the second form would decide the outcome!

In an instant, Susanoo grew into its second form. The skeletal upper body of the first form was now covered in flesh and draped in armor, marking a massive transformation in its defensive power. Its size expanded to over ten meters.

Not only that, but the second form of Susanoo came with its own exclusive weapon.

Blayn took note of his weapon—a massive tachi. Despite its enormous size, it looke...

Chapter 58: The Strong Never Complain

The wall lamps in the dilapidated hall flickered, casting swaying shadows across the room.

In young Doflamingo’s eyes, the Marine sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed appeared half-lit and half-shrouded in darkness, his smile twisted and ominous.

"I have good news for you."

Daren smiled.

"You won't die today. Neither will your subordinates. In fact, you'll have a chance to live better than anyone else."

"I just want to have a simple chat."

Doflamingo...

Chapter 398: The Two Jinchūriki

A large clearing had been carved out deep in the remote forests of Konoha.

Sakumo and the ANBU had secured the perimeter, sealing off the area. Even though today's operation was unlikely to go wrong, he remained cautious. He had even brought out his family's Onimaru and Shiromaru, both adept at reconnaissance.

At the center of the clearing stood two small altars, each just large enough for an adult to sit cross-legged. Nearby, a group of people had gathered, engaged in discussion....

Chapter 397: Spirit Division Sealing Mark

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and a scroll containing the completed new technique was finally laid out before everyone.

It was the same familiar quiet room, but today, there were a few more people present.

"Let me take a look first."

Kawakaze grabbed the scroll without hesitation. No one else fought for it. Those who dared had already seen it, and those who hadn’t didn’t have the nerve to challenge him for it.

"Is there anything wrong with it?"

Si...

Chapter 238: A Gift for Orochimaru

“Kakashi is right, Kazuyama-sensei , you have a very strong physique.”

“Guy told me that, apart from his father, you're the strongest person he’s ever met.”

“To become strong, physical conditioning is essential!”

“Kakashi, you truly are my teammate—we’re surprisingly in sync on this!”

Obito, looking excited, patted Kakashi on the shoulder. After all, he had been training in Taijutsu with Guy from a young age to strengthen his body.

What left...

Chapter 237: A Different Kakashi

Just as Kazuyama was thinking of how to refuse, Yanagimura spoke slowly, smiling.

"I wonder... have you ever heard of Nadeshiko Village?"

Nadeshiko Village? The moment Kazuyama heard that name, his eyes widened.

That was the legendary "Land of Women" of the shinobi world. Located atop two mountains, one large and one small, with a village on each peak, the two settlements were connected by a massive wooden bridge.

The village had a unique rule: to marry, a woman had to...

Chapter 129: Susanoo’s Second Form

Although Susanoo isn't as broken as Double Kamui’s spatial abilities, it possesses absolute power and absolute defense.

If the body can withstand its immense energy drain, then Susanoo is undoubtedly the best choice for a head-on confrontation.

Susanoo works by consuming Dōjutsu and materializing chakra into a tangible form, which usually results in excruciating pain throughout the body.

However, since Blayn had no chakra, his Susanoo was bound to be a modified version—...
