It wasn’t really that Midori was lonely—it was just that Kazuyama Gekkō was far better than him at teaching certain subjects.
Take stealth or ambush, for example. That guy was a master.
God knows if he spent every single day sneaking around, otherwise how could he be so damn skilled?
The moment Minato Namikaze heard Kazuyama’s name, his head started aching. The first thing that came to mind was the twenty million ryō he’d burned through.
Twenty million ryō! ...

[Special Reward: Strength +10!]
A surge of power flooded into his body. Kazuyama Gekkō closed his eyes, savoring the rush. Then he waited.
The system had said this operation harmed a massive number of people. Surely the reward wouldn’t stop here.
But no matter how long he waited, nothing else came.
“Hey, stingy system, that’s it? Just ten points of Strength?”
[That’s it. What? Not enough? Host, you should know—coming from a miserly system like me, gi...

Hey everyone, we’ve reached the end of the Bleach: Watch Closely, This Is How You Use a Zanpakutō translation. Honestly, it didn’t get much attention from readers, but I had a lot of fun working on it. The truth is, the Bleach fanbase is really demanding, and many of the other works available to translate don’t always meet those high expectations. Even so, I’m glad I was able to finish this novel, and I’m truly grateful to all of you who read and supported it until the end...

Ten years later in Seireitei, the overlapping daylight fell as always, bathing the world in endless radiance.
And yet, the world that once collided so violently now seemed to have vanished—or perhaps it lingered, always just out of sight.
Inside his office, Aizen was focused on writing when he suddenly paused and looked out the window, a trace of confusion flickering in his eyes.
He slowly accepted the cup of hot tea handed to him by his secretary, took a light sip, and sa...

“I exist here because my heart is here.”
Masatsuki Aozaki wasn’t even sure who he was speaking to.
A Shinigami’s power is born of the heart. The Zanpakutō in their hands is the manifestation of that heart.
It’s something taught in every textbook at the Shin'ō Academy—yet not everyone truly grasps the meaning behind it.
But for Masatsuki Aozaki, the long sword in his hand is both the world born of his heart and the home of those he holds dear.
The po...

"Lieutenant-sama, the elders of the Yomi Clan request an audience."
Hearing his subordinate’s report, Aizen, who had been reviewing documents in the Captain-Commander’s office, suddenly paused mid-sentence.
He frowned slightly, as if lost in thought.
Setting down his pen, he leaned back in his chair. After a moment of silence, he drew a deep breath, stood up, and made his way toward the reception room.
At the door, he pushed it open and stepped inside, taking a sea...

Time flew by, and several days passed.
At a glance, Hell stretched endlessly in all directions. Towering stone pillars rose from the ground, the air was thick with miasma, and desolation reigned supreme.
At this moment, Masatsuki Aozaki had already left the Three Worlds behind and stepped into a completely unfamiliar space. It didn’t resemble the terrifying purgatory of legend, but rather a desolate, uninhabited void.
Even so, he felt no fear or panic. Strange as it was, t...

Daren exhaled a stream of smoke, gazing down at the endless ocean below. He paused for a moment before answering.
“Not necessarily.”

Before the towering, ominous shadow, the Five Elders bowed their heads low, their expressions growing ever more reverent.
If this moment were ever revealed to the world, it would shake the seas to their core.
An existence unknown to the outside world—wielding immeasurable power—sat upon the Empty Throne, a seat forbidden even to the Celestial Dragons, and issued commands to the Five Elders, the supposed highest authority of the World Government.

After returning to the rented house, the four of them went inside, and Lorien immediately cast a soundproof barrier over the place. That way, no sound would escape.
There were two bedrooms—one large, one small. Naturally, Hela would take the smaller one. Lorien and the two girls would use the larger one. Decision made.
Hela had already worn herself out running around all day. The moment she stepped into her room, she collapsed onto the bed and drifted off.

Charlotte Linlin left that same day. After visiting Ortoren, she headed straight for the port and departed Whole Cake Island aboard the Queen Mama Chanter.
It was clear that while the Big Mom Pirates and the Flying Pirates hadn't officially clashed yet, the atmosphere was tense—especially for the Big Mom Pirates, who seemed to be under greater pressure.
Yet as an outsider, Ortoren could see it clearly: this situation was actually beneficial for Charlotte Linlin—a new opportuni...

Ortoren’s brief clarity didn’t last. As the initial shock of pain faded and his body began to adjust, his mind slipped back into madness. The chaos overtook him again, and soon, that feral red glow returned to his eyes.
He pulled himself up from the ground, grabbed his war hammer, and charged straight at Rayleigh and Charlotte Linlin, who were still locked in battle.
There was no reasoning with him—he attacked anyone in sight.
But Charlotte Linlin had no time to deal w...

Rayleigh was sent flying by a powerful blow, flipping twice mid-air. Drawing on his vast combat experience, he dispersed the impact, landed on his feet, and took several steps back to steady himself.
But before he could say a word, the crazed Ortoren was already charging at him, war hammer in hand, roaring like a wild beast!
Just then, Shanks drew his sword and shouted, “First Mate, I’ve got your back!”
Without hesitation, he rushed straight toward Ortoren.

Charlotte Linlin’s punch was brutally powerful. Ortoren was sent flying over ten meters before crashing hard into the ground, shattering it again on impact. The force bounced his massive body back into the air, sending him tumbling another ten meters until he finally smashed into a tree thick enough for two people to wrap their arms around—only then did he come to a stop.
Even with the boost from Sulong, the frenzied Ortoren looked stunned. His body lay stiff on the ground, ears rin...

SWORD.
Its full name: Sentient World Observation and Response Department.
Its purpose is simple. If SHIELD handles conflicts on Earth and protects its safety, then SWORD deals with conflicts between Earth and alien civilizations, preventing alien invasions.
Of course, at present, this agency is practically useless. Its main operations take place off-world.
In fact, its first appearance was only in a deleted Thor animation, where someone pulled up SWORD’s investigatio...

The next day.
Lorien took his hands and feet off the woman beside him, then headed for a hot shower as usual. He had spent the whole night “burning” the heretic witch—burning her until she cried out in pain. After that, she couldn’t even get up to tempt him anymore.
Don’t believe it? See for yourself—while Lorien was washing up, the witch was still lying there. Wasn’t that proof she’d been completely subdued by his baton?
That’s why all heretics should be b...

It was the first time Lorien had met someone who didn’t want fans, but instead wished to remain completely unknown. Honestly, how many people could truly do that?
Then again, thinking about it, this was simply Wanda’s true nature. She never wanted fame, nor had any desire to be a star. He had told her as much himself, and she felt the same way.
Compared to the bright spotlight of celebrity, Wanda clearly preferred a peaceful life with Lorien. And now that they had achieved tha...

Hearing both Wanda and Gwen were here, Natasha finally eased up. She trusted the strength of Spider-Woman and Scarlet Witch, and with an Asgardian god on board, there was no way that so-called Vulture would get to run wild.
By then, little Hela, bored out of her mind, had run off to play nearby. Watching her go, Natasha...
