After the two of them stepped into a new world, Masatsuki Aozaki took a moment to rest, shifting back into his human form before dressing and leaving the 2nd Division.
As the 3rd Seat, he could come and go from the barracks freely without anyone stopping him. However, to maintain the dignified image of a responsible officer, he decided it wouldn’t be wise to let his subordinates catch him slacking off. Instead, he chose the more discreet route—scaling the walls and heading straight ...

Even after learning that Blayn stood on the opposing side, Esdeath neither wavered nor grew angry.
To her, this did nothing to change how she felt about him.
As long as Blayn stayed by her side, none of it mattered. She wouldn’t allow him to leave.
However, Double Kamui’s spatial transfer was too fast. Before Esdeath could grab him, Blayn had already shifted into the Kamui space.
In the next instant, her hand grasped at nothing—Blayn had completely vanished befor...

The next day, when Nawaki and Misaki woke up, Kawakaze had already gathered everyone for a meeting.
The small meeting room in the Hokage building wasn’t crowded. Tsunade sat at the head of the table, with Kawakaze and Sakumo flanking her on either side. Everyone present shared one thing in common: they all knew the identities of the three members of Akatsukigakure, including Nagato.
“The atmosphere yesterday wasn’t suitable for a proper discussion,” Kawakaze began, his exp...

As night fell, the Senju mansion descended into chaos.
Before all the guests had dispersed, Kawakaze and the others, led by Mito, gathered around another table. The drinks had been replaced with hangover remedies, and everyone had eaten and drunk their fill.
“You've all worked hard these past few days,” Mito said, her face glowing with a faint drunkenness. It was evident that she was genuinely happy tonight, as if she had achieved something she had long desired.

The three kids froze as they watched Kazuyama, covered in kunai and writhing in pain.
Obito, in particular, looked down at his empty hands, then back at the pile of kunai, his face full of panic.
"It's over, Kakashi! You're such a jinx—you actually made it happen!"
"All of my thread kunai are stuck on Sensei! What do we do?"
"Rin! Hurry up and heal him!"
Rin didn’t need Obito's command—she had already stepped forward and started treating Kazuyama.

They waited all night until dawn finally broke, and at last, they saw Kakashi.
Kakashi had been running the entire night, yet he showed no signs of exhaustion, leaving Obito and Kazuyama staring at him in disbelief.
"Kakashi, aren't you tired after running all night?"
"No, this is nothing. If I ever get really tired, I can just use my chakra to transform into an electric current and instantly feel refreshed."
My goodness, what kind of monstrous technique is this? The T...

"Here's what you asked for," Kisuke Urahara said, handing Masatsuki Aozaki a protective suit and an accessory.
"Got it. Then give this to Kirio-san." Masatsuki Aozaki extended his hand, offering a lunchbox. "Today's special recipe."
Kisuke Urahara took the lunchbox, weighing it in his hands to check its contents.
"Is your cooking really that good? Good enough to have a captain completely hooked?"

The Three Beasts were temporarily resting at Esdeath’s mansion.
Seizing the opportunity, Nyau sidled up to Blayn. “Lord Blayn, is it okay if I call you that?”
“You can just call me Blayn. No need for the extra title,” Blayn replied.
“No way! If I show disrespect to Lord Blayn, Lady Esdeath definitely won’t let me off easily.” Nyau shook his head firmly.
Blayn had nothing to say to that. “Fine, suit yourself.”

He shot up in bed, drenched in sweat, as if he had just taken a sunbath inside the sun itself.
Rangiku Matsumoto stood before him, staring in shock before slowly sitting down at the edge of the bed.
The room was empty except for the two of them.
“Did you have a nightmare?” Rangiku asked. “Or did you wear yourself out playing with Yoruichi Shihōin for too long?”
“I had a dream… I’m not sure if it was a nightmare,” Masatsuki Aozaki muttered, rubbing his ...

When Esdeath announced her relationship with Blayn, the explosive news spread rapidly from the small market.
Since Blayn himself didn't deny it—and given that it came straight from General Esdeath—outsiders were even more convinced. There was no way Blayn could insist that he and Esdeath were merely “short-term lovers” at a time like this... That would be inappropriate.
By now, Blayn and Esdeath had already finished shopping for the necessary ingredients.
As soon as ...

“May you both spend every spring, summer, autumn, and winter of your lives together.”
Tsunade, ever reliable as the first to drink, stood up gracefully, bringing Kawakaze along with her.
“Thank you, Sister and Brother-in-law,” Nawaki and Misaki replied in unison. They raised their sake cups, clinked them together, then held hands as they drank about a third of the contents.

Nawaki and Misaki walked out of Orochimaru’s mansion amidst blessings and the surrounding crowd.
The wedding sedan chair, carried by eight bearers, had been waiting outside the gate for some time. These eight were all trusted subordinates of Nawaki—loyal and dependable. On one hand, their presence ensured safety; on the other, they were more than happy to bask in the joy of the occasion.

Just as he was about to swing, Korin's voice rang out.

Chōmei was shocked into silence.
In his Partial Tailed Beast Transformation, Kazuyama grabbed the Tailed Beast Ball directly, squeezing it into an irregular oval shape. It trembled violently, shifting unpredictably as if it could explode at any moment.

"Look at mine! Close Combat Mode!"
The next second, Kazuyama Gekkō moved. The four tails behind him swayed as he charged straight into the thunder. The Tailed Beast B...

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, a month had passed.
Masatsuki Aozaki and Yoruichi Shihōin had spent an unforgettable month together, pushing each other to their limits.
Their spiritual bodies and Reiatsu had been tempered like never before, and in the grand scheme of life, they had taken yet another step forward.
It turned out that proper training could indeed enhance one’s strength—but excessive training could also leave one feeling spiritually empty.

She wouldn't be thinking of that, would she...?
"What are you standing around for? You're done washing, so come to bed," Esdeath said.
"Hm..."
Blayn sat down on the other side of the bed and slowly lay down.
Thankfully, it seemed like he had been overthinking things. Esdeath didn’t do anything—she simply lay down next to him.
But it did...

Crushed rocks tumbled down one after another, kicking up a massive cloud of dust.

Although it felt wrong to think this way, they were genuinely worried that Commander Blayn would be taken away by General Esdeath.
After all, even heroes struggle to resist a beautiful woman.
They couldn't completely rule out the possibility.

Blayn was barely holding on against Esdeath's relentless assault and had no choice but to call for a timeout.
“But if you have any hobbies you'd recommend, I'm willing to give them a try.”
Esdeath returned to the main topic. She was thinking long-term—having shared interests with her lover would be ideal.
As for the "short-term lovers" Blayn had mentioned earlier, she had completely dismissed the idea. She was confident that, with her ...

Esdeath casually walked through the streets of the Imperial Capital, holding Blayn’s arm without the slightest concern for the gazes of passersby.
Blayn had agreed to her request to repay a favor, so he had no intention of going back on his word.
However, he still hadn’t officially responded to Esdeath’s confession. The reason he accepted being her short-term lover was purely to settle his debt.
His feelings toward this unique and domineering woman were complicated.

“I’m just wondering why this shop isn’t open?”
A bearded man, Shishi, stopped a passer-by, his tone casual though his demeanor seemed suspicious.
“Who are you?” The passer-by, clearly wary, glanced at Shishi, whose appearance didn’t inspire much trust.
“I’m here to visit relatives. Is Granny Kyoko out?” Shishi attempted a friendly smile, though it lacked sincerity.
