Chapter 355: Emilia, the Enemy of an Overprotective Sister

"If I'm not mistaken, the Royal Selection is decided by the Dragonstone, isn't it?"

"Honestly, it sounds ridiculous to leave the fate of the kingdom to a mere rock. But regardless, the choice of the Dragon Priestesses is something that you nobles and ministers have no right to interfere with, do you?"

"Half-elves are evil? That notion is fundamentally flawed and idiotic.

"If you examine the continent's history, countless villains have arisen from among humans—far more than...

Chapter 354: I, Wood Hoshin, Am Willing to Become Her Knight!

Anastasia Hoshin and Wood Hoshin—just hearing these two names was enough to make the connection.

That's right, Anastasia Hoshin was Wood's sister, although not by blood. Anastasia came from the lowest class of Kararagi, essentially the slums, and that was where she first met Wood.

When they were young, both Anastasia and Wood grew up in the slums, suffering hardship after hardship. Anastasia, due to a congenital defect, was unable to use magic and was nearly sold into slavery. I...

Chapter 353: Wood's True Identity!

Both his swordsmanship and magic had reached top-tier levels, to the point where even the kingdom's "Finest Knight" was defeated so easily.

With such abilities, even if she wasn't chosen as the new Queen of the Dragon Kingdom during the Royal Selection, Priscilla believed that, with Wood's help, she could still achieve her revenge.

The strongest force of the Empire of Vollachia was Cecilus Segmunt, but Priscilla had met him. When it came to sheer power, Cecilus might be able to de...

Chapter 352: Magic Sword Technique? I Can Do That Too!

Within the Royal Guard, Julius basically had no suitable sparring partners. Reinhard, the Sword Saint, was far too monstrous. His overwhelming strength placed him on a completely different level compared to others, making his abilities almost unattainable for any ordinary knight.

As for the rest of the members, their abilities were nowhere near Julius's level, leaving him without a worthy opponent to hone his skills.

Felix was strong when it came to magic, but his specialty lay in...

Chapter 351: The Overpowered Sword Saint: Wood’s Unmatched Strength!

"My name is Wood, just an unremarkable commoner from some distant place," he introduced himself calmly, sizing up the man before him. "I can’t claim to offer guidance, not to someone carrying titles like The Sword of the Kingdom and The Finest Knight."

From the moment Julius Juukulius appeared, Wood knew this wasn't just a pretty face. Since coming to this world, he hadn’t met too many people, but those who could give him a genuine sense of danger were rare: R...

Chapter 350: The Royal Guard's Entrance Test!

"You didn't mention your cup of tea would cost three gold dragon coins, and I believe I only offered you tea, not an entire meal," Wood said, a pained expression on his face as he looked at Priscilla, who was sipping her tea gracefully. Sitting in front of her was an extravagantly delicate-looking cake that seemed far too lavish.

Wood had become familiar with the local economy back in the small town where he met Emilia.

Frankly speaking, the common currency used by civilians and m...

Chapter 349: Mistaken for a Scoundrel by the Knights

Priscilla, unfazed by the nickname "Bloody Bride," made no effort to avoid the title.

In fact, her unfortunate husband's sudden demise might very well have been caused by her "Blessing of the Sun."

Because Priscilla desired it, events always adjusted themselves in her favor. Thus, her husband, whom she'd never even met, conveniently kicked the bucket.

As a result, Priscilla gained control of the Barielle family and became one of the five "Dragon Priestesses."

If she wo...

Chapter 348: Walking Around with a Loli, Flirting?

The Dragon Kingdom, Lugnica’s capital.

As the royal selection ceremony was about to begin, the already bustling capital became even livelier.

At this moment, Wood was strolling down the busiest street in the capital, dressed in a black cloak with a knight’s sword strapped to his waist. A handsome young man with golden hair and a striking presence like his could easily attract attention, even if he wasn’t familiar with the capital. Plenty of young women would gladly volunteer...

Chapter 347: Singlehandedly Subduing the Underground Assassination Organization

This world has magic, and also the profession of magic users.

Generally speaking, the strength of a magic user is directly tied to the magic they can wield and their magical energy.

Ordinary humans, limited by their physical conditions, typically don’t reach a high level of magical ability. Even with the addition of blessings, only a handful of magic users ever achieve significant success.

Compared to ordinary humans, elemental spirits are the true darlings of the mana (ma...

Chapter 346: The Assassination of the Head of the Assassination Organization: "Mother"

“Sorry, sorry, I got stuck while writing today and forgot to update… (′▽｀).”

Now, as Meili Portroute looked at Wood slowly walking toward her, her eyes were filled with terror.

Earlier, the confidence Meili had shown when confronting Wood stemmed from the fact that she thought she had hundreds of magical beasts backing her. However, for some unknown reason, all those beasts had suddenly lost consciousness.

When she saw Wood form an ice blade and walk along...

Chapter 152: Yugito, Where Is Your Pride?

"Don't just stand there."

Seeing Nagato leave Konan behind, Shishou dispelled the summoning of Turtle Island's giant turtle and used the Flying Thunder God mark on Konan to appear beside her.

"Nagato said he will challenge you again in two years," Konan said, looking downcast.

According to their agreement, she had to stay with Shishou for the next two years.

"Okay," Shishou nodded, taking Konan away from the area and appearing on the back of the snake, Tanishin Hime. 2024-06-30 19:53:09 +0000 UTC View Post

Chapter 151: Nagato's Defeat!

Inside Turtle Island.

Beside the True Waterfall.

Mabui, Yugito, and Samui sat in a pavilion next to the waterfall, sipping tea and chatting leisurely.

Mabui and Samui, curious about Yugito's "other half," decided to stay and inquire further while keeping her company.

Although Shishou had no malicious intentions towards Yugito and Killer Bee, only borrowing their chakra, the Fourth Raikage was furious and vowed to make Shishou pay.

In contrast, Mabui saw this as a...

Chapter 150: Overwhelming Power!

In the distance, atop a mountain, Uchiha Itachi squinted his eyes, looking at Nagato, who appeared on the Yatagarasu.

"So that's the leader's true form," he muttered.

Aside from Tobi and Sasori, the other Akatsuki members stared curiously at Nagato on the Yatagarasu. It was their first time seeing the leader's true form.

On the Yatagarasu, Nagato placed Deva Path Pain inside the bird and jumped to the ground. He commanded the Yatagarasu to leave, then turned to Shishou and s...

Chapter 149: Super Shinra Tensei!

On the Edge of the Battlefield

Kakuzu looked on in horror at the massive Flower-Tree World Creation that Shishou had unleashed. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he muttered in disbelief, "This power... it's already stronger than Hashirama Senju's..."

As someone who had fought alongside Hashirama, Kakuzu knew well the scale and power of his Flower-Tree World Creation. The other Akatsuki members were equally stunned, their faces filled with shock. They hadn't expec...

Chapter 148: Wood Release: Great Forest Technique

On a distant mountain peak.

Sasori, with his red hair, stood on a large tree, gazing fervently at the Asura Path in the distance.

That was his masterpiece!

The Five-Tails Jinchuriki had been turned into a half-human puppet by Sasori. On top of that, Pain had transformed the half-human puppet into the Asura Path.

This way, the Asura Path not only possessed the abilities of the Five-Tails Jinchuriki but could also draw upon the Tailed Beast Chakra within, achieving multi...

Chapter 147: Shishou vs. Nagato

Arriving near Death Valley.

The giant Yatagarasu, summoned by Pain, landed at the edge of the valley, and the members of the Akatsuki dismounted from its back.

“Hehehe, looks like they’ve brought quite a crowd,” Kakuzu remarked, eyeing the giant ink hawks flying in the sky.

“Hmph, so what? They’re nothing but a bunch of nobodies. Kakuzu, don’t tell me you’re scared,” Kisame taunted, looking at Kakuzu.

With his awakened Wood Release and unique physique, ...

Chapter 145: Two Thousand Chakra Points!

“You see, someone doesn’t want to tell you,” said the Nibi, glancing at Yugito before addressing Shishou.

Seeing Yugito's response, Shishou chuckled and vanished from the mental space, leaving Yugito and Nibi to talk.

Returning to reality, Shishou looked at the sleeping Yugito and smiled, admiring her delicate features as he waited for her to wake up.

A few minutes later, Yugito opened her eyes and saw Shishou watching her, causing her heart to race.

Seeing that ...

Chapter 146: Pre-Battle Preparations

Night.

Amegakure, Hidden Rain Village.

“Are you sure there's no problem?”

On top of a high tower in Amegakure, Konan of the Akatsuki looked at Tendo Pain beside her with a worried expression.

Tomorrow was the day of Pain's battle against the Flying Thunder God user.

Although she had absolute confidence in Nagato's strength, the Flying Thunder God user clearly wasn't someone easy to defeat.

No matter the outcome, Nagato's body would undoubtedly suffer so...

Chapter 144: Yugito’s Mortifying Desire to Destroy the World

"What are you doing running out here like this!"

“I haven’t agreed to anything yet!”

Hearing Yugito's words, Shishou was completely bewildered.

Came out here?

Agreed to what?

Girl, why are you blushing?

I don’t remember doing anything to you.

A confused Shishou turned to look at Killer Bee in the distance, who was also wearing a bewildered expression.

Inside Yugito, Matatabi closed her eyes in exasperation.

How embarrassing!

...

Chapter 143: Self-conquering Yugito Nii

"Ah, so Killer Bee is also here. That's great," Shishou said with a bright smile, causing Motoi to panic, unable to understand how Shishou knew this information.

Could he have mind-reading abilities? Motoi thought in terror.

Seeing Motoi's expression, Shishou felt a bit speechless, thinking, "You're practically giving it away."

Casually knocking Motoi out, Shishou walked towards the Falls of Truth.

He remembered that there was a cave behind the waterfall where Yugito...

Chapter 142: Soul Lotus Ahri: Yin Kurama

Noon.

From returning to Kirigakure, Shishou walked into his room and yawned.

"Tsk, my chakra has already reached 800 kC and is still increasing," Shishou noted with admiration. "As expected, the remains of Uchiha Madara, who awakened the Rinnegan, are different. Just one has given me such a terrifying boost."

After observing his chakra, Shishou took a bath, then went to the basement of his house, taking out the white jade bottle that sealed the Yin half of Kurama.

He p...

Chapter 141: "Oh, Are You Having a Meeting!"

"Of course, it's true. One of the reasons I set the duel is because our battle range is too wide and would affect many innocent people. So, we agreed to fight in the Valley of Death in the Land of Fire three days from now," Shishou explained the reason for his duel.

Tsunade recalled Shishou's Wood Release: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees and Pain's Chibaku Tensei, falling silent. The range of their jutsu was indeed vast and devastating. Compared to them, other Kage-level f...

Chapter 140: Shinobi World Containment Organization

"How about we make a bet?"

Hearing this, Konan, who was held by Shishou, was stunned and then asked, "What kind of bet?"

Tendo Pain, who was about to speak, closed his mouth when he saw Konan asking. He quietly looked at Shishou, wanting to know what he had to say.

Uchiha Obito, seeing Shishou ignore him, had a hideous expression hidden under his mask, roaring internally: I need power! I need immense power!

Shishou glanced at Tendo Pain and said, "With me holding Konan...

Chapter 139: Infiltrating the Hidden Rain, Capturing Konan

Hidden Leaf Village.

Uchiha Obito was facing an increasing number of Leaf Village ninjas. Due to the masked man's peculiar abilities, Tsunade and the Third Hokage could only keep a vigilant eye on him, preventing him from harming anyone else as long as he didn't make a move.

Suddenly, Uchiha Obito entered the Kamui dimension.

The Third Hokage immediately shouted, "Be careful around you!"

Before the Third Hokage could finish speaking, White Zetsu emerged from the ground...

Chapter 138: Ending It

Late Night.

In the Hidden Leaf Village.

Uchiha Obito stood on a tree created by Wood Release, casually tossing down the lifeless body of a Leaf Village Anbu. Beneath him lay several corpses, and surrounding him, the bodies of about a dozen Anbu hung from the branches, their scarlet blood dripping steadily, creating the illusion of a bloody rain.

It seems the Flying Thunder God user really isn't from the Leaf Village. Otherwise, he would have shown up by now, Obito mused, gla...

Chapter 137: Unexpected Turn of Events!

"Explain the situation in detail," spoke the ethereal image of Tendo Pain from the fingertips of the Gedo Statue.

Uchiha Obito, hearing this, began to recount his tale. He and Kisame had been in the Land of Water, investigating the whereabouts of the Flying Thunder God user, when White Zetsu alerted them that his base had been infiltrated. Upon returning, they engaged in a fierce battle with the intruder.

"I see," Tendo Pain responded coldly. "Continue gathering information on his...

Chapter 136: The Opposing Powers, Unified, Give Birth to the Ultimate Truth

"How's the power of my Fire Release?" Shishou asked.

Obito's face turned pale. It dawned on him that the diminished power of Shishou's Fire Release was entirely due to the lack of air in the base.

Bang! Bang!

Kisame swung his Samehada, breaking the wooden spikes around him. However, for every ten spikes he broke, twenty more rose from the ground, taking their place. Kisame glared at Shishou angrily. His defense against the Flying Thunder God had been turned against him, pr...

Chapter 132: The Joint Investigation

"Do you want the Akatsuki to go to war with the Five Great Shinobi Countries, or would you prefer they remain in hiding?" Shishou asked Mei Terumi with a smile.

Although the Akatsuki members were formidable, they still couldn't match the combined might of the Five Great Shinobi Countries.

Mei sighed in response, "Honestly, it doesn't really matter."

"If the Akatsuki continues to lie low, it might give Kirigakure a few years to develop. But that bomb will eventually go off, a...

Chapter 135: Raid on Obito's Secret Base

"Is this Obito's room?"

Inside Obito Uchiha's secret base, after devouring the White Zetsu that had led him there and concealing his ability to control White Zetsu with the Sharingan, Shishou looked at the messy room before him with disdain.

It was incredibly disorganized!

Despite Obito's ruthless and cold demeanor in the Akatsuki, his personal life was a complete mess, resembling that of a reclusive, immature teenager. Socks were strewn about, shoes were randomly tossed, co...

Chapter 134: Gender-swapped Tsunade - Sage Training

"Shizune, this is the fifth time you've sneaked a look at me."

"If you do it again, I'll use the teaching stick on you."

Shishou, with his face altered to resemble Tsunade's, sternly addressed Shizune, who was studying at the desk. Using his Phosphorus Beetles, he had not only transformed his face to look like Tsunade's but had also made some adjustments to make it appear more masculine.

With a blonde ponytail wig, Shishou now looked like a gender-swapped version of Tsunad...
