The bag was no ordinary bag—it was a Sacred Artifact with the ability to expand space.
This Artifact allowed Criegh to store numerous items within a very limited space, making it easy for him to carry various explosives without any difficulty.
The explosives were carefully taken out of the bag and handed over to a manager who was waiting nearby.
Once the items were received, Criegh and Cristine paused for a moment, observing the busy place around them.

"You'll find out later," Lance replied in a tone that was almost cold, then he immediately ignored them and redirected his attention back to the head surgeon present.
In the Marvel universe, there is no way to avoid involvement with SHIELD, especially since they have expertise in handling mysterious cases. They are more suited than the police to deal with "monster" cases like this.
However, Lance was not ready to get involved with them just yet.
In a somewhat gloomy a...

As the man on the left was about to lift his head for a better look, Melinda, quicker than him, was already beneath him, aiming her shot with high precision.
In the next moment, Melinda raised the pistol in her hand and continuously fired towards the guards outside.
The specially silenced pistol emitted only a soft sound, almost inaudible. Each bullet fired contained tree snake venom, which had a very strong anesthetic effect. The two guards hit didn’t have time to utter ...

"Hoho~" Strange noises escaped the mouths of the transformed children, resembling the sounds of wounded beasts. Foam dripped from the corners of their mouths, and their eyes were vacant, as if devoid of consciousness. They charged at Lance with terrifying ferocity, showing no hint of fear.
Lance quickly made his decision. Without hesitation, he formed hand seals at lightning speed, each movement precise and deliberate.
"Rings of Raggadorr!"
Whoosh!

His eyes grew even more intense, staring at the magical fan with reverence, as if he was trying to absorb every bit of knowledge contained within it. "I’ve spent most of my life searching, and I finally found a magical book that I could understand. Even though the book didn’t teach me how to wield magic, at least it gave me incredible knowledge about hybrids."
"Hybrids?" Lance immediately glanced at the "monster" lying on the ground, his sharp eyes assessing the increasingly ...

The patient being operated on was a pale-skinned boy, no more than seven or eight years old. His body lay weakly on the bed, his eyes closed, and his breathing unstable. An eerie silence hung in the room, as if every passing second increased the mounting tension.
What were they planning to do?
Cut open the boy’s abdomen and sell his organs for money?
No! That was wrong!
Lance’s eyes immediately turned cold as he sensed something far darker happening here. Wi...

Aoki, who had heard that name before, immediately thought of one person.
"Jugo," Aoki muttered inwardly, imagining how someone could lose control over the great power within their body.
"Besides them, there are others who have special bodies, like yours, Aoki," Kuroshiro said, his gaze serious as he looked at Aoki, his expression calm but meaningful.
"Me?" Aoki was shocked, his eyes widening as if he couldn’t believe what he had just heard. He stared at Kuroshiro, s...

A few moments later, Yumeko stopped. "I’ve done my best," Yumeko said, her voice slightly trembling, surprised to see Aoki's body still so weak despite being healed.
"Enough. It’s time," Aoki said firmly.
Ten women, including Kurisu, stood around Aoki. They placed their hands on Aoki's back, carefully channeling Chakra. A faint light began to appear from Aoki’s body, now sitting cross-legged, eyes closed, fully concentrating.
On the other side, over two hundred ...

They hurled insult after insult, each one sharper than the last, their words dripping with venom, as if trying to crush Aoki under the weight of their hatred. But Aoki remained silent. It wasn’t because he didn’t care—it was because his body was too weak to respond.
Every breath he took was painful, as if shards of glass pierced his lungs. All he could do was endure in silence, holding on desperately, trying to buy even a few more moments amidst the suffocating despair th...

The forest was dark and filled with tree roots protruding from the ground, creating a slippery and treacherous path.
After leading them in circles and ensuring that the women in Hell’s Valley had finished dealing with their enemies, Aoki planned to guide all his pursuers toward Hell’s Valley.

"Listen," Reiji said, his voice calm but firm. "I don't care how long it takes for you to learn this."
"I also don't care how good your Fuinjutsu skills are. What I need is for you to learn everything I teach you, without exception. Do you understand?"
The five of them answered in unison, "Yes!"
Their tone was full of enthusiasm, though some still seemed a bit confused.
Reiji nodded and then handed them a few small books.
The covers of the books were simpl...

“Huh? Well... This... Is it a lot?” Reiji answered with an awkward smile, his hand reflexively scratching his head.
Keito shrugged.
“Really? I think it’s still very little,” Keito said, his tone sounding like a joke, though there was a hint of seriousness in it.
Reiji could only sigh quietly, choosing not to think too much about Keito’s comment.

There were various reasons that hindered its use in the past.
For example, the lack of suitable media to contain or activate the Fuinjutsu, or because the technique itself was not yet fully developed and required further refinement.

Time passed quickly.
It had been three months since Keito and Kasumi's wedding anniversary.
During this time, Reiji had created many new Fuinjutsu techniques, along with extraordinary innovations that transformed life in Uzushio Village.
One of Reiji's most notable achievements was household appliances.
Reiji first created a lamp powered by Fuinjutsu, followed by flashlights, blenders, grills, and various other tools.
All these tools were made by...

With delicate hands, Kasumi slipped the ring onto Keito's right ring finger.
Seeing this, Keito couldn’t hide his embarrassment and happiness.

The warmth and love surrounding them were palpable, making the atmosphere in the room even more intimate.

"Except for a few that might be hidden, and the Dark Market probably doesn’t want to sell more to us," Criegh said in a calm tone, keeping his focus on their mission.
"I understand, alright. Let’s go," Cristine finally agreed, though her curiosity still hadn’t been satisfied.
The two of them walked down a quieter path, but the people who had been observing them earlier immediately began following from behind. They didn’t know who these people were, but Cristine felt...

This striking difference explained why Cristine was now in the Black Market alongside Criegh. Even though Criegh could have come alone, Cristine insisted on accompanying him.
This insistence left Criegh, who typically avoided arguments, unable to refuse his younger sister’s request. Cristine’s presence on this mission might not have been what Criegh desired, but he knew he couldn’t hold back someone as stubborn as Cristine.
Despite often disregarding orders from Arde,...

But that wasn’t the end of it.
With a strong shove, Lance pushed the scarred man’s hand away. In one quick motion, Lance grabbed a bottle of Chivas Regal from the bartender's hand and, with a sharp movement, slammed the bottle into the back of the disoriented man’s head.
The scarred man staggered back, his head split open by the broken wine bottle. In an instant, he collapsed to the ground with a heavy thud, falling between the legs of his followers, as blood began to...

Lance was now reclining on the living room sofa without turning on any lights. Only the thick darkness filled the house, while old songs played from the vacuum tube amplifier.

In the midst of the pursuit, Aoki managed to trap and kill another enemy with a clever trap. Now, Aoki had taken down two of the nine enemies chasing him. However, the remaining eight ninjas still relentlessly pursued him without hesitation.
Sweat soaked Aoki’s face, and his breath came in ragged gasps. He knew he couldn’t hold out much longer.

The combination of the two attacks created a much larger and more destructive force—a massive fireball that scorched anything in its path.

Aoki stared at the remaining nine enemies with a gaze full of vigilance. Among them, one had been injured, though it seemed to have been healed by a Medical Ninja.
The other eight were still in prime condition, their strength intact with no signs of weakness. Aoki knew that he had to act.
However, facing all of them directly, especially when most were Jonin or even Elite Jonin, was nearly impossible.
Previously, Aoki had managed to injure two enemies and kill one of t...
