Ever since Kazuyama became Orochimaru's disciple, he had voraciously absorbed the knowledge imparted to him. Although Orochimaru had not yet allowed him to participate in his experiments, Kazuyama was fully aware that the day was not far off. Orochimaru’s break from conventional ethics wouldn’t occur until after the Third Shinobi World War, so there was no rush.
For now, Kazuyama spent his mornings attending Orochimaru's lessons and his afternoons studying at his mentor’s home. He...

“What about Yin–Yang Release?”
Orochimaru was slightly startled by Kazuyama's question. He hadn’t expected a 14-year-old to pose such a query.
Interesting. Very interesting.
“Although it’s a bit early for you to understand this at your age, since you’ve asked, I’ll explain it to you.” Orochimaru’s voice carried a rare tone of approval.
“The concept of Yin Release and Yang Release: the power of Yin, derived from spiritual energy, is the ab...

Kushina Uzumaki, the "Red Hot-Blooded Habanero" of Konoha.
The Uzumaki Clan, known for their immense chakra reserves and mastery of Fūinjutsu, had produced many formidable individuals, and Kushina was no exception. Despite her cute and youthful appearance, her fiery temper was legendary. To put it bluntly, she had the heart of a shrew.
Kazuyama’s casual words were enough to ignite her infamous temper. Without a single word, she turned into a red streak of lightning, charging st...

With those words, Fugaku was embraced by Minato after his heartfelt declaration of love.
A brief silence followed, broken only by the muffled sounds of people trying to stifle their laughter.
Minato's mind went completely blank. He lost the ability to think, his usual carefree demeanor shattered by the shock. Fugaku was no different, utterly stunned by the unexpected situation. Yet, he continued holding Minato, as if his body had refused to let go.
“You guys...”

“What? Minato, what did you bet with Kazuyama?”
Jiraiya, one of the Sannin, perked up at the mention of a bet. He had an unusual fascination with wagers, largely because his secret love, Tsunade, was a notorious gambler.
“Sensei, I…” Minato’s face turned red in an instant. It was clear the terms of the bet were highly inappropriate.
“Hahaha! Minato, remember what you said to me back then? If I ever got myself a Sensei, you’d go and confess your love to Fugaku...

Kazuyama didn’t care about Orochimaru’s reaction. If Orochimaru wanted him as a disciple, acceptance was a necessary gift—otherwise, Kazuyama would simply walk away. Besides, Orochimaru was now a cornerstone of Konoha; refusing publicly wasn’t an option for him.
“Heh... Alright, I’ll accept you as my disciple,” Orochimaru said with a sinister grin. “As for the gift you mentioned... Come with me...”
With that, Orochimaru turned and leapt down, heading toward the A...

Kazuyama returned from his trip to the Land of Hot Water with significant earnings, allowing him a rare period of leisure.
His reappearance at the Academy, however, sparked groans of despair among the students. The sight of their "Demon Sensei" was enough to send many into a panic. Yet, some met his return with confidence—none more so than Kakashi and Obito.

“Yes, the Mutually Instantaneous Revolving Technique, if used well, is absolutely an excellent weapon on the battlefield.”
Minato looked at the technique engraved on his kunai, a glimmer of yearning in his eyes.
“Come on, Minato, let's try it?”
Hearing this, Minato’s curiosity about the new technique was completely piqued, and he agreed without hesitation.
“Okay, let’s do it! We’ll both leave our jutsu on each other and try it.”

“Chōmei, my good days are coming to an end…”
As Kazuyama walked through the village, he couldn’t help feeling a sense of helplessness. With the exposure of his Flying Thunder God Technique and his teleportation abilities, any hopes of maintaining a low profile had vanished. Still, he took some solace in his arsenal—he still had the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique and the Eight Inner Gates. In this cutthroat world, where survival meant devouring others before being discarded, ...

Heichi, who had narrowly escaped death, felt as though his entire being had been transformed. For the first time, he made Kazuyama see him in a new light.
Heichi was a relentless chatterbox, rambling on endlessly. If he wasn't a friend, Kazuyama might have seriously considered silencing him with Scale Powder. Trust him—he could do it.
The two had taken a detour from the Land of Hot Water to the Land of Rice Fields. Kazuyama’s tensed nerves finally began to ease as they c...

As Hironobu's body hit the ground with a heavy thud, Heichi knew he had already died. A trace of pride flickered in his eyes.
"The ninja of Konoha will only die in battle—they will never retreat!"
He turned to Kazuyama, his voice steady despite the chaos. "Kazuyama! Please take care of this!"
Heichi was prepared to fight to the death. His words were a clear command for Kazuyama to prioritize the mission and return to the village. But Kazuyama wasn’t one to abandon comrades....

As he observed the five paralyzed individuals, Kazuyama slowly revealed himself, stepping into view. Despite the apparent success of his technique, he still sought confirmation from Chōmei.
“Chōmei, you're sure they can't see me right now, right?” he asked cautiously.
“Absolutely not. Don’t worry! If it doesn’t work, just try it yourself,” Chōmei replied confidently.
To test the waters, Kazuyama crouched in front of one of the Kumo ninja and waved his hand. Th...

The Ninja Academy, established by the Second Hokage as a training ground for future shinobi, is a cornerstone of Konoha’s education system—but it is far from flawless. Its relatively recent founding has resulted in notable gaps in its curriculum. Take, for instance, the current generation of students, like Kazuyama Gekkō. Beyond basic ninjutsu training and general knowledge, the academy provides little to truly cultivate the full potential of its students.

As a ninja, Jiraiya was also a writer. Icha Icha Paradise was one of his signature works, crafted from observa...

The three ninjas, after returning to Konohagakure Village, headed straight to the Hokage's office. This mission had been assigned by the Third Hokage, and they still needed to deliver their report.
“So, Takigakure still plans to stay isolated from the outside world, and the Seven-Tails is a bit unstable?”

Kazuyama nodded helplessly as he looked at the lecher before him.
Why helpless? Because he noticed the faint, hidden smile playing ...

Once he was ready, Kazuyama Gekkō took a deep breath.
“Chōmei, are you ready?”
“I’m going to start.”
Chōmei nodded. He, too, was prepared. Once the seal succeeded, he would be free. Although he would be tied to the young boy in front of him, Chōmei felt that the brat was a good candidate.
The Four Symbols Seal was a powerful sealing technique that demanded immense strength and precise chakra control. Fortunately, Kazuyama had maintained his Transparent Es...

The Seven-Tails, known as Chōmei, was one of the nine fragments of chakra split from the Ten-Tails by Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo in ancient times. A colossal beetle with six wings and a tail, its sealed form before Kazuyama was noticeably smaller, a clear result of its confinement.
Kazuyama stared at the enormous Tailed Beast, its sheer presence overwhelming despite the seal. The oppressive aura reminded him just how insignificant a lone ninja like himself was in comparison.
