[The two threw their cups away and prepared to fight.]
[Iskandar did not hesitate, immediately leading his Army to charge at Gilgamesh.]
["To gather your troops and pursue your dreams… your determination is admirable,"] Gilgamesh remarked as he unsheathed Ea.

"How… how could this happen?"
Kaminari, Kyoka, and Midnight stared in shock at the grotesque remains of the man who had once been the "Stone Man," now reduced to scattered, blackened chunks of molten rock on the cement highway.
"He was alive not even half an hour ago… and now this?"
The sight was hard to process. What was left of the man barely resembled anything human anymore, just steaming fragments of stone and ash littering the ground.
"But why? Why would s...

Finally, under the watchful eyes and murmurs of countless onlookers, the burly man was shoved into a police car by the officers, the vehicle disappearing down the road as everyone looked on.
As for Kaminari, Kyoka, Midnight, and the others, they accompanied the severely injured reporter and the young girl, who had lost a lot of blood, to Saitama Municipal General Hospital via a late-arriving ambulance.
They hadn't needed to follow along, but Kaminari insisted on seeing the girl ...

Coming out of the World Government headquarters, Claudius walked side by side with Sengoku seemingly deep in conversation.
"Let me get this straight: the mess was caused by the Marines, but somehow it all landed on me. Sengoku, you're really something. You found the perfect job for me," Claudius said, his tone carrying a hint of dissatisfaction.
Sengoku looked slightly embarrassed but managed a wry smile. "Your Highness, isn't the CP-X division specifically there to handle issue...

During the meeting, Claudius came to a deeper realization about the inner workings of the World Government. It wasn't just the external forces pressing against them, their internal rot and stagnation were all too apparent, and the worst part was, they were aware of it.
Nusjuro glanced unhappily between Sengoku and Gis, his displeasure clear. He wasn't blind to the underlying challenges of the situation. He knew full well that Whitebeard's influence was an almost insurmountable problem....

"Alright, if you're ready to celebrate, hold off a bit longer!"
Ryuji's voice cut through the joy-filled atmosphere, waving his hand as if to halt everyone.
"It's not over yet."
"...What?"
His words froze everyone in place.
Not over?
What did he mean by that?
Even Arisu turned to look at him in confusion, her composed demeanor showing a crack of uncertainty.
"Wait, isn't Shouko's problem already solved?"
Yaeko and Yuzuru, who had ...

Yaeko naturally hoped her daughter could live a normal life, like everyone else.
But after so many years of treatments and setbacks, she was afraid to hope too much. A part of her worried it might just be a false alarm.
Even so, she looked at Shouko with eyes filled with hope.
When Shouko heard her mother's trembling voice calling out to her, tears started streaming down her face.
"I can hear it! I can hear it!"
Her voice was raw, shaky, but filled with pure...

Seeing Orochimaru's rapid recovery from his injuries, Nono couldn't hide her surprise.
But then she thought about it, Orochimaru had created recovery potions and pioneered cloning technology. Compared to those feats, the ability to repair his own bones didn't seem all that impossible. With this realization, Nono quickly composed herself.

From within the smoke, Nono's figure emerged. Her cloak and casual attire had vanished, replaced by a sharp, practical outfit, she now wore a vest, a ninja sword strapped to her back, a utility pouch at her waist, and gauntlets on her hands.
She crouched low, her right knee bent and her left leg stretched behind her, her body poised like a vigilant predator. Her right hand gripped the hilt ...

This was a war without gunpowder.
From the very first minute, Gao Shen realized just how tough this game was going to be.
In the opening two minutes, Napoli managed a long-range shot following Hamsik's breakthrough through the middle.
But just a minute later, Juventus responded. In their attack, they aimed to find Trezeguet, only for Bonucci to step in and intercept. However, Trezeguet, frustrated, lunged in with a dangerous tackle from behind, taking Bonucci and the ball...

Although she had won, Artoria herself was visibly exhausted. She had already fired Excalibur's powerful beam and engaged in intense combat with Lancelot, who was boosted by two Command Spells. Defeating him had taken every ounce of her strength.

After being bested by her, Lancelot regained a fleeting moment of clarity. The haze of madness lifted, allowing him to pierce through the illusions Zhang Jiao had crafted.

As expected, after using his electricity to stimulate her body, the unconscious girl's complexion began to improve slightly. However, the wound on her side continued to bleed heavily.
"Kyoka!"
"Bandage her up! We can't let her keep bleeding!"
Kyoka nodded and hurried over. But as she knelt beside the girl, she looked at her empty hands, her face scrunching with frustration.

Kaminari, clearly frustrated, took two steps forward, placing himself between Kyoka and ROPE-MAN. His tone was firm but controlled, making it clear he was done with the back-and-forth.
"You!"
ROPE-MAN turned to Kaminari, his face twisting in irritation. But before he could retort, the stone man, who had been watching their exchange, erupted with a furious shout.

Claudius chatted a little longer with the visibly frustrated Sengoku. Soon after, the arrival of one of the Five Elders was announced.
As usual, not all five appeared. Presiding over this meeting was Saint Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro, commonly referred to as the Bald Elder. From the moment he entered the room, his foul mood was palpable. His expression was grim, and his heavy footsteps filled the air with tension as he approached the table.
With a sharp motion, Nusjuro threw a folder ...

Shouko didn't say anything, but she stared at Ryuji with a look of dissatisfaction.
In her heart, she didn't think there was anything wrong with what she had done.
If she were given the choice again, Shouko was certain she would still make the same decision.
She was, at her core, a girl with an incredibly kind heart.
Even after years of bullying, she continued to see the world with compassion and love.

Ryuji wasn't the type to jump into something for free. If no benefits were mentioned, it was hard for him to agree.
So, when Arisu added her family's offer, Ryuji smiled knowingly.
"You should've just said that earlier!" he said with a hint of amusement.
If she'd been upfront, he wouldn't have had to question her motives.
Arisu, however, just smiled politely, clearly unfazed. She didn't really believe that Ryuji was interested in her family's offer.

Antonio Valencia, Ecuadorian international, 22 years old.
At this age, in most other teams, he'd still be seen as a youngster, a promising talent who required careful nurturing. But in Naples, none of that applied.
In fact, within this uniquely young team, Valencia found himself considered something of a "veteran."
The average age of Napoli's starting lineup was under 21. Who would believe such a statistic?

But, of course, that was just a fleeting thought. He couldn't help but chuckle at the ridiculousness of it. The reality was that an order was an...
