"Sensei, I'm sorry!" Shiratori quickly ran to Hanzō's side and began treating the wound on his palm.
"I got you hurt again!"
His eyebrows drew together, lips pressed into a thin line, he looked deeply remorseful.
Hanzō looked at the wound in his palm, which was rapidly healing, and said, "Getting injured during combat is normal. The fact that you were able to hurt me is something to be proud of, it means your skills have improved."
But Shiratori couldn't think so hig...

Shiratori took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement surging within him.
Whether it was divine power or cursed technique, it didn't matter, but perhaps due to his constitution, he was vaguely developing in the direction of a battle maniac. And that completely violated his principle of "fight if you can win, run if you can't."
So, while he was standing in the training ground, he forced himself to calm down. Lest his passion for battle override his reason and end up getting hims...

"Father, you were criticized by the village for abandoning the mission to save your comrades. But those who abandon comrades for the mission are also criticized, why is that?"
Yahiko, disguised as an older version of Kakashi using a shadow clone, looked at Sakumo Hatake in confusion.
Sakumo fell silent, lost in thought.
That did seem to be the case... If he abandoned his comrades for the mission, perhaps... he would still be condemned?

"According to the follow-up investigation, the one who killed Danzō was Shiori."
"What?" Ryouma was truly agitated now. He stepped forward, placing both hands on the desk and asked nervously, "Then she's not hurt, is she?"
Minato had expected this kind of reaction from Ryouma, which was why he had prepared him mentally beforehand.
"Calm down. Shiori is fine. This is what happened at the time…"

Sheriff Grayson gave the order.
"Yes, Sheriff."

At the north of the left flank battlefield, Tsunade and Sakumo, following Danzō's orders, had already instructed their subordinates to establish temporary encampments to block any surprise attacks by the Suna ninjas on key routes.
But more than thirty days had passed, and not a single Suna ninja had come through this area. It was as if they had completely abandoned this front.
According to the intel that came in, after suffering heavy losses on the northern front, Chiyo had chose...

After adjusting his emotions, Jō said to Sakumo, "Go ahead and tell me the specifics of your reconnaissance mission."
Sakumo reported everything in detail, leaving nothing out.
Upon hearing this, Jō flew into a rage and scolded him, "You actually had the audacity to disobey my orders! I clearly gave you the task of scouting a designated location, yet you took it upon yourself to change the route?"

"Do you guys think I'm stupid?" Minato explained, "This is a battlefield, danger could come at any moment. How could I possibly let you make such a mistake?"
"But we're definitely not getting out of that drink. When we return to Konoha, I'll invite you both to my place. We'll drink to our heart's content then."
A kindhearted joke can help strengthen relationships.
And Minato, how tactful was he? How could he possibly drink on the battlefield, especially with others in tow?

At the edge of the battlefield, Shin stood atop a tall tree, overseeing the entire situation.
A ninja from Ame was engaged in intense close-quarters combat with a Konoha ninja, both wielding kunai. The fight was fierce, yet neither could gain the upper hand.
After a brief clash, the two separated momentarily. Suddenly, the Ame ninja sensed something and looked up toward a certain direction.
What met his gaze was a pair of Sharingan with three tomoe.

"What you're seeing may not be an empty surface at all, but a pair of eyes staring back at you..."
The thought grew more unsettling the more Garrett considered it.
Stiffly, he raised a hand and waved at the presence in the Mirror, his attempt at a greeting.
What happened next differed somewhat from what he'd expected. The "other him" within the water did nothing dramatic; he merely smiled, an enigmatic smile that, upon closer inspection, even carried a trace of warmth.

Perhaps due to environmental factors, the Golden Wood appeared more sheltered and quieter compared to Rivendell.
At least Rivendell had open skies and surrounding mountains to gaze upon. In contrast, when one looked up in Lothlórien, all they could see were golden leaves and pale white branches, along with the soft, warm lights that appeared only at night.
One was an open tranquility; the other, a serene sanctuary.
Each had its unique charm.

Compared to dragons, the Balrog was undoubtedly smaller in sheer size.
However, that didn't stop them from being even more formidable in battle than most dragons, with significantly greater resilience and regenerative power.
Two ages past, during the Elder Days when dragons still roamed in great numbers, many of those winged beasts served merely as mounts for Balrogs. They would carry them over towering city walls, allowing them to wreak havoc within.

That orc captain was ultimately just a captain. He could command the orcs, lead the horde, but that was his limit. He could not truly represent them.
Garrett watched with his own eyes as some orcs passed by their captain's corpse, drooling. One reached into the remains of the armor, dug out a few scraps of flesh, swallowed them, and then turned his savage gaze toward the only remaining enemy.

Chiba stood silently behind Hanzō, like an unremarkable shadow.
In front of the desk, many ninjas stood in neat formation. They were all elite ninjas with influence in the village.

After finishing lunch, Shiratori returned to the training ground. By the time he arrived, Hanzō was already standing there, and it was unclear how long he had been waiting.
He gained a new understanding of Hanzō's strictness.
That afternoon, he only studied ninjutsu with Hanzō for about two hours.
After witnessing his speed in learning ninjutsu firsthand, Hanzō no longer forced him into high-intensity training.

Hanzō was deeply amazed in his heart.

His punches landed on Shiratori, but the bruises quickly faded away.
Through his training, Shiratori's punching speed grew faster with each strike, his power stronger, and his angles more precise and ruthless.
At this rate of growth, it wouldn't even take three days for the boy's taijutsu to surpass his!
This could no longer be described as mere talent. He was born to be a ninja!

Suddenly, it was as if the mist was torn open. The first thing that emerged was a massive skeletal claw.
