Kerrigan put on the helmet, tucking her fiery red ponytail inside. The helmet was light but sturdy. In the span of a single breath, the HUD display activated, and a series of status readouts floated before her eyes.
As the Wraith’s engines powered up, the HUD lit up with a briefing:
Assassination Targets:

Lann contemplated in silence for a moment. “So, if everything goes smoothly, you’ll eliminate a Southern infiltrator and gain unprecedented prestige—and you’ll also rise to become the leader of the Brotherhood of Sorcerers.”
“And the representatives from every kingdom who witness all this on Thanedd Island will come to respect you. You’ll gain political recognition across the entire North.”
“When everything is done, Redania will once again be left without a ruler...

As Enel let out a thunderous Thunder God roar—
A long, serpentine thunder dragon rose into the sky.
In the blink of an eye, it plunged into the ranks of combat puppets, wreaking havoc.
But that was only the beginning.
In his Thunder God form, Enel turned into a storm of lightning—
And instantly reappeared above the heads of fifty or so Ōtsutsuki clan members.
In the next instant—
Under the shocked and furious gazes of Ōtsutsuki Yūmi and the o...

Inside the Palatine Forum, which had been converted into the Revolutionary Army’s temporary command center, Augustus stood alongside his Umojan staff officers at a long table—brought in from the main chamber of the Assembly Hall. A sprawling planetary map of Korhal lay spread across its surface, with small flags marking the positions of both Confederate and Revolutionary Army forces.
Augustus remained silent as he stared at a flag near Styrling City, representing a Federal Marine en...

“Not bad... It's even stronger than my 100 million volts,” Enel muttered.
This time, he didn’t take the attack head-on.
He transformed into lightning and dodged the violet beam’s path,

This mission would be more than halfway complete.

Naruto’s voice broke through Gen’s thoughts. He pouted and asked, "How’d you get so pale anyway? Teach me! Maybe Sakura-chan will like it!"
"Tch. You’re not working with the same raw materials, kid."
Gen snapped back to reality with a dismissive laugh. Besides, it wasn’t just his skin that had gotten paler.
Even his eyes had changed.

Philippa clenched her teeth. Compared to their last meeting, Lann’s sudden increase in power left her without a clear strategy. And his indifferent attitude made it hard for her to steer the conversation.

“And the price is…” Philippa stared at Lann’s still-unmoved expression, then bit h...

Hiruzen chose to ignore Keizumi’s final remark for now.
Instead, his attention shifted to the phrase: “Naruto committed a crime.”
That alone was enough to create a contradiction between Keizumi’s and Danzō’s accounts.
Danzō seemed to believe that Keizumi was deliberately trying to take control of the Nine-Tails.
But Keizumi didn’t appear to have any such intention. He simply thought Naruto had done something wrong and needed to be arrested.

Not long returned from the dungeons, Lann was seated with his eyes closed, resting.
His mind lingered on the conversation he’d had with Fringilla Vigo.
Following an official seal of approval from the [Follower] system, Fringilla’s favorability toward Lann had skyrocketed.
Though in her own mind, perhaps she simply believed she’d been swayed by the future he painted and the promises he made.
Regardless, the result was the same—she had reached a state of complete...

Gen shrugged and asked with a hint of amusement, “But Kakashi-sensei, I’m totally fine. Why did you come all the way to bring me back yourself?”
“Because I care about you.”

As soon as he opened his eyes, Lann saw a naked middle-aged man with grey hair standing up from the pool—a mixture of monster blood and healing potions.

In his estimation, a thousand Combat Puppets would be enough to annihilate any major hidden village on the Shinobi World.

It would probably take the combined might of the entire Shinobi World just to resist it.

Danzō’s pupils contracted sharply.
Uchiha Keizumi moved too fast—so fast that the blistering heat radiating from his magma-covered arm, now dangerously close, stung Danzō’s eyes and made his skin burn as if scorched.
A heavy sulfurous stench assaulted his nostrils. The sense of danger in his heart spiked. The threat of death was growing more tangible by the second.
If that hit landed—
He would die!!!

In March of 2489, in the city of Styrling on Korhal IV, the politicians inside the municipal hall—along with the financial giants of Victoria District and the influential nobles—could sense that the political winds were shifting. Ambitious figures sought to rise amid the chaos, while nobles and tycoons concerned with their own survival were looking to flee to private estates far from Korhal.
