Once Samael and Enkidu finally managed to pull the two quarrelers apart, the project to rebuild the Underworld officially began.
Since Ereshkigal and Ishtar now possessed nearly the full scope of the Mother Goddess Tiamat’s powers of creation and death—together with the authorities of heaven and earth—the task of reshaping the land, raising and lowering terrain, and sealing off separate domains progressed smoothly.
Following Samael’s suggestion, the Underworld was divided ...

The atmosphere fell silent again. As Ana lowered her head, torn with hesitation, Samael walked over, bent down, and placed his hand gently on her head, stroking softly.
That gentle warmth slowly dispelled the unease in the girl’s heart. She lifted her gaze, eyes burning as she looked at him.
“Samael, you won’t lie to me, right?”
“I promise!”
The ancient serpent firmly extended his little finger, smiling as he hooked it with Ana’s delicate hand, giving it ...

"Freya-sama, welcome."
The one greeting her at the entrance wasn’t Finn, but Raul—the one usually stuck with heavy labor.
Tonight, Raul was also dressed in proper formalwear. After all, the banquet was partly for him too. Advancing from Lv.4 to Lv.5 was no small feat and certainly worth celebrating.
Still riding that excitement, Raul subtly observed the arriving members of Freya Familia.
Most of them were already here. A quick glance was enough to confirm that near...

Hephaestus had talked to Welf about this before, but with little effect.
Now that Welf had come to understand it on his own, that was honestly the best possible outcome.
As a blacksmith, it was natural to cherish the weapons he forged—even to the point of treating them like his own children. But a true craftswoman also had to put the needs of the user first.
If he always prioritized himself, he’d never become a fully-fledged blacksmith.
That kind of truth wasn’t ...

After returning to the surface, Shiomi noticed the storm clouds had dispersed. The long night was ending, and dawn was breaking.
He had thought his "conversation" with Tiamat hadn't taken much time, but now it seemed to have lasted longer than expected.
Even though Artoria’s Holy Lance had pierced a massive hole through it, the city of Uruk showed no signs of collapse, and the entrance to the underworld had vanished without a trace.
It was just like what they'd seen in Kut...

When Shiomi came to, he found his head resting on Tiamat’s lap.
She looked down at him with gentle affection, slowly stroking his hair.
“Human, my child... To think one so much like you could exist,” Tiamat said, her voice still halting.
She spoke using a language system entirely different from that of humans. Yet here, in her own mental world, she could communicate like this.
Because his spirit had reached resonance with hers.
“Maybe just a little,” Sh...

In a valley in the Land of Rivers, Orochimaru smiled at the two standing before him. But though his lips curved, his pupils were filled with caution. From their brief clash earlier, he already knew just how terrifying their power was.
Nagato stood with his arms crossed, face full of disdain, while Zetsu spoke with regret.

After all, you were willing to betray Konoha for your own ambitions.

Just as Kazuyama Gekkō was leaving the Land of Hot Water, he suddenly felt the Senjutsu chakra of Tagitsuhime surging violently within him.
“Kazuyama, there’s something I need to tell you.”
Tagitsuhime appeared in the form of a long crimson serpent, and as soon as she emerged, she brought Kazuyama startling news.
“Your sensei, Orochimaru, asked me to deliver a message. A group calling themselves Akatsuki has approached him.”

Hearing that familiar voice, Daren couldn’t help but smile.
“Did you really think commanding this fleet was going to be easy?”
He turned around to see Momonga approaching, face pale and steps unsteady. With a grin, he said,

“Roger’s pirate crew?”
Morgans froze for a second at Daren’s sudden question.
“If I remember correctly, they recently gathered all the Poneglyphs and successfully deciphered the secrets recorded on them. I’d imagine they’re off searching for that so-called ‘Final Island’ by now, aren’t they?”
There was a clear hint of mockery in his voice by the end.
Daren glanced at him, took a drag from his cigarette, and said thoughtfully,

At the docks of Whole Cake Island, Ortoren once again boarded Katakuri’s absurdly styled ship, the Sweet Donut.
“The entire New World—no, maybe the entire world—is in upheaval after the outcome of the Battle of Edd War. It’s bound to shift the balance of power across the seas. Mama’s at the front lines now, and she won’t be coming back anytime soon. So if you still want to talk to her about joining the Marines, you’ll have to do it in person,” Katakuri said as he order...

By all logic, the Roger Pirates should’ve had no chance of winning the Battle of Edd War against Shiki’s massive Flying Pirates fleet.
It wasn’t just a matter of numbers. As a pirate overlord, Shiki had an army of powerful subordinates under his command. Otherwise, how could he have kept Kaidou, Charlotte Linlin, Ochoku, Silver Axe, and the rest of those ambitious monsters in check, all by himself?
In both manpower and elite combat strength, Shiki held the advantage. That’...

Ever since Ortoren ate the Goro Goro no Mi, thunder had echoed through the mountains behind Whole Cake Island for three straight days. Very few knew of Ortoren’s identity, and even many of Charlotte Linlin’s children were unaware of his existence. On top of that, word of the Goro Goro no Mi hadn’t leaked at all. So, the people of Whole Cake Island just assumed it was some strange weather pattern hitting the back mountain.
While a bit suspicious, it wasn’t anything too unusual fo...

A flash of lightning streaked through the mountains behind Whole Cake Island. Moments later, a thunderous pillar of light shot into the sky, only to vanish as quickly as it had appeared, as if it had never existed.
In those same mountains, where Ortoren and Katakuri were located, arcs of crackling electricity flickered through the air.
Ortoren sat cross-legged on the ground, occasional sparks dancing across the tips of his hair. The small box that had been beside him was now open...

Gwen was torn.
Would Lorien step in to save the world? Or would they all just move to Cybertron and start over?
But Lorien’s answer was simple:
“You’ll be the one to kill them.”
Gwen was dumbfounded.
I’m just Gwen, a part-time superhero because it’s fun. How did saving the world suddenly get dumped on me? I didn’t even do anything!
Wanda was just as curious, glancing at Lorien in confusion.
Lorien only smiled.

As Knowhere drifted closer to Cybertron, the Transformers naturally wouldn’t just throw it directly onto the planet’s surface. Instead, Cybertron set up a gravitational control device that fixed Knowhere securely into its satellite orbit.
That made mining far more convenient.
Once the gravity lock was engaged, nearly all the Transformers responsible for towing returned to the surface of Cybertron, leaving only a few behind to monitor the orbit.

“It’s Spider-Woman from the Goddess Alliance!”

Just as expected, things went exactly as Lorien had thought.
After they had eaten for a while, Hela suddenly stopped playing in the distance and sniffed the air. She whipped her head around.
“You guys are eating without me?!”

Lorien picked up a piece of grilled meat, dipped it in sauce, and tossed it to her.

After the smoke cleared, the Tivan Group’s territory was completely pacified.
Dozens of fifteen-meter-tall descendants of Transformers swept through the area, hunting down any remaining armed resistance.
Anyone they found was eliminated on the spot—unless they surrendered their weapons, in which case their lives were spared.
Before long, every armed faction within the Tivan Group’s territory had been wiped out.
The territory’s leader was dragged to the central ...

As soon as he got home, Lorien fired up the Ferrari with a roar.
Wanda jumped, clearly unsettled.
“Slow down, you’re going too fast.”
“Fast?” Lorien pressed the gas and glanced at the speedometer. It was barely hitting sixty. “This is nothing.”
But Wanda still couldn’t handle it. Even that speed was too much for her.
So Lorien had no choice but to ease up and drive slower.
Until finally...
