The battle between the Tailed Beasts was simple and unadorned—just a series of collisions and counterattacks.
Chōmei and Kokuō were no different, except that Chōmei, in his current chakra form, couldn't be hurt. Even if his chakra was scattered, he could just reform it with little effort. On the other hand, Kokuō was beginning to show visible wounds, all caused by Chōmei’s claws.
“Damn it! Why aren’t you flesh and blood!”
“Isn’t he your Jinchūriki? What...

In the reception room, the highest decision-makers of the Loki Familia were already seated.
Three Level 6 adventurers, and the Familia God herself—Loki.
Aside from these four, there was one outsider present—an adventurer from another Familia, who was fortunate enough to be included in this meeting, though she wasn’t sure if that fortune was a blessing or a curse.
Aisha couldn’t tell if she was incredibly lucky or just caught up in something bigger than herself to be ...

On the other side, Riveria had already arrived at the Ishtar Familia.
“The Nine Hell came looking for me?”
With flawless brown skin and a figure that could make anyone blush and their heart race at a glance—that was the Goddess of Beauty, Ishtar.
She had been rudely woken from sleep and was clearly annoyed, but upon hearing who it was, she was instantly full of questions.
She instinctively glanced out the window. The sun was rising as usual.
So why did ever...

The battle between Saber and Archer was still raging.
In just a few minutes, Saber had already shattered an uncountable number of daggers—twenty-six white, twenty-seven black. They seemed endless, which only irritated the rebellious knight even more.
"What the hell is that weapon of yours? It's so damn annoying!" Saber snapped. "You're such a clingy bastard! Just die already!"
"That's a strange thing to say. Would you obey your enemy and kill yourself?" Archer replied, rai...

Gandr was a spell known for being both easy to control and highly effective.
Even at minimal output, it could knock out an ordinary person. With the caster’s fingers pressed together like a cannon barrel, it fired a magic bullet powerful enough to punch through reinforced concrete.
For a regular person, it could be lethal. Even a Magus would be in serious trouble if hit directly.
But that was under ideal conditions.
If the target was a top-tier Magus, fully prepared,...

That morning, after breakfast, with nothing pressing to do, Haruki set out with Nina, Gin, Kurome, and Chelsea, making their way leisurely toward Lina’s residence. He had promised her back on the warship that he’d visit her home someday.
As for the others in Haruki’s group—Esdeath had official military duties, and naturally, her devoted follower Aria accompanied her. Seryu and Yuki were at the security department handling paperwork, while the rest stayed back at Haruki’s estat...

As soon as the words fell, Kozuki Oden let out a hysterical roar.
"Daren!!"
His figure shot forward like a bullet, eyes blood-red like a demon, roaring as he slashed down with his blade!
A violent gust rushed in, kicking up dust and debris all around.
Daren's cold smile deepened as he boldly met the charge.
Fingers bent and bunched together, he thrust out his three-fingered Ryusoken, a claw strike capable of crushing any force.
Ryusoken: Dragon's Claw!

Shanks and Buggy watched the scene before them, the corners of their eyes twitching, their hands unconsciously trembling as they gripped their swords.
Smoke billowed and rubble flew everywhere.
Kozuki Oden's body hurtled back like a cannonball, smashing into a coral statue in the banquet hall and embedding himself in it.
He let out a pained cry and spat out a mouthful of blood.
His eyes stared in disbelief at the sharp black light before him, blocked...

Masatsuki Aozaki stroked his chin, a faint smile forming at the corners of his lips as he gazed at the girl before him.
The pint-sized princess of the Kasumiōji Clan barely reached his waist.
Marrying her gave off an inexplicable sense of guilt, yet, technically speaking, it was perfectly legal.
This was... tricky.

Leading them was a man with wild white hair tied into a sleek ponytail at the back.
It was none other than Sakumo Hatake, accompanied by three ANBU operatives.
Along the way, Sakumo's first impression was how quiet everything felt—silent, yet peaceful.
There were no signs of shinobi, only faint smoke rising from the chimneys of a few scattered homes.

There was no denying it—the Third Hokage's political skills had become increasingly refined.

Riveria nodded slightly, sharing the same assessment.

As the witness, Hephaestus would need to keep watch over both sides to ensure they upheld their promises. If anything wen...

Saber was clad in full armor, with only her head exposed, making her a small and difficult target for Archer’s short sword. The difference in their physiques was stark—Saber was a full two or three heads shorter—yet she drove Archer back again and again, even seeming to overpower him.
Despite wielding a longsword that was only about half her height, Saber’s attacks only grew more intense, showing no sign of fatigue.

Rin had summoned her Servant a day earlier than Sakura.
After the last Holy Grail War, their father, Tokiomi Tohsaka, had his Magic Circuits completely destroyed by the core of the Grail, leaving his capabilities as a Magus barely above that of an ordinary person.
As a result, under the supervision of the Mage’s Association, Rin inherited the Tohsaka family’s Magic Crest through a transplant from her father.
Before this Holy Grail War began, just like her father had once...

Dr. Stylish wasn’t stupid. From Haruki’s demeanor, it was obvious he wasn’t joking. So he asked without hesitation.
In truth, Dr. Stylish hadn’t figured out Haruki’s real intentions. To him, this was probably just another attempt by a government official to pull him into some political faction or power struggle. That’s why he went straight to the po...

Seeing Kozuki Oden charging out, overflowing with murderous intent, Rayleigh and Gaban's expressions shifted slightly. They both shouted to stop him.
