In the Chronicles of Aeltia official forum, a post appeared:
[Shocking! To fulfill the conditions of achieving the first monster kill and clearing the Blackrock Toad dungeon, a player actually fed themselves to the Blackrock Toad egg!]
[As the title suggests, this thread isn't about a gameplay diary, it was about finding someone.
Who the heck was it?! That egg already swallowed one player before, and now it's hatched!

On Jiraiya's side, they had already noticed that the Kumo ninjas were approaching. The four of them sped up. As one of the Sannin, he wasn't afraid of a direct confrontation. The problem was that he was carrying an important item, which meant he couldn't fight at full strength.
If a real fight broke out now, it would put them at a disadvantage. More importantly, there was Tsunade, she wasn't in good condition. Though she hadn't said anything, he could easily sense something was wrong.

Black Zetsu was lavishly praising Obito. "To think of selling Konoha's intelligence to Kumo, what a brilliant idea. That way, if they start fighting each other, they won't have time to deal with us."
"It was just a little trick," Obito said. "Let the Raikage probe Konoha a bit. Lately, Konoha has become too unfamiliar."
Recently, Black Zetsu had been unable to track down any trace of Itachi in the shinobi world. This was extremely unusual for him. He wondered, could Itachi really ...

Masashi and Black Zetsu were sitting face-to-face in the living room, drinking tea.
After bringing Black Zetsu home, Masashi didn't need to introduce him, Hikari, who had already met him back at the shelter, naturally recognized the familiar face. Pakura, on the other hand, was startled. Mainly because he radiated serious villain vibes.
He didn't even have eyelids.
Following the fine tradition of "kill first, ask questions later when faced with something unknown," she almost...

"Did you allocate funds specifically for the refugees who fled to Zaun when you took charge of it?"
When there was no one else around, Swain resumed his uniquely magnetic voice with a straight and proud posture. Even the tattered clothes and refugee disguise couldn't hide the composed confidence of someone long accustomed to holding power.
He broke off a piece of the bread given by the enforcers and slowly tasted it. Although it was just cheap bread, the quality was decent, no saw...

The banquet continued late into the evening. Except for the targeted Clan Ferros, everyone managed to get a piece, more or less, of the giant cake Swain had brought. The banquet hall gradually emptied as the evening wore on. Empty wine glasses and scattered business cards marked the spots where Piltover's elite had unknowingly traded their autonomy for profit margins.
Under the temptation of wealth, Piltover's various power holders unknowingly let down their guard. They no longer had an...

The ANBU ninja standing by took the scroll, inspected it carefully, and only handed it over to Hiruzen after confirming there were no issues. As soon as he opened the scroll, he gasped sharply.
The price was simply too generous, it even made his breathing a bit rushed.
Homura and Koharu, who were standing nearby, also leaned over after noticing his reaction. Both were also shocked by the contents written on the scroll.
They had originally thought that the delegation from Kum...

"I didn't mean anything drastic, just that we want an explanation," A said, suppressing his anger. "If the explanation satisfies Kumo, then of course things can remain peaceful. But if it doesn't satisfy us..."
"What then?"
"To give justice to our fallen comrades and their families, we will have no choice but to declare war on Konoha. Perhaps you don't know this yet, many within Kumo have been holding back for too long. They've been eager for a war with Konoha for quite some time....

After listening to Shin's analysis, Tsunade was furious.
To suppress his rivals, Hiruzen had gone so far as to harm the interests of the village, such behavior was utterly disgusting. She couldn't stand to see people like Hiruzen leeching off Konoha.
In Shin's words, Konoha was like a giant covered in tumors.
It wasn't lacking in nutrients, the problem was that the tumors were absorbing all of them. The good news was that the tumors weren't yet too large. If removed in time,...

"Tomoko! Tomoko!" A young woman was walking along the street, calling out a name and occasionally gesturing to the passersby as she asked around.
"Have you seen a little girl about this tall with brown hair?"
"Don't bother me, I'm looking for my own son!"
The man she stopped seemed to be searching for his own child as well. Annoyed, he shoved the woman aside and shouted loudly around him.
"Genji! Get out here right now, I'm really mad!"

Even in the shinobi world, there were people known as "squinty-eyed weirdos."
Madara never squinted. The Uchiha clan, known for using the Sharingan, were typically wide-eyed warriors. But at this very moment, he felt the urge to squint.
This child wasn't afraid of him?
Impossible.
Ever since he asserted his dominance in the shinobi world, everyone feared him, except for the idiot standing next to him. This fear had nothing to do with like or dislike, it was an instinct...

"Stop!"
I pressed one hand against Gaeman's cheek, pushing him back.
"I'm just made of bones. I can't handle your hugs. Since you've chosen a direction for your transformation, show some manliness. Stop clinging and hugging all the time."
I glanced at the process recorded on the sub-server, reviewing how he had encountered Child. I couldn't help but click my tongue in amazement... Of course, it was my imaginary tongue, I only had bones.

A bloodline limit that could potentially be replicated through research, now that was something worth pursuing.
Even though it was a non-hereditary bloodline limit, it was still quite remarkable. After all, this was something many ninjas strive for their entire lives but never achieved.
Just look at Hiruzen, he mastered the chakra nature transformations of all five elements and learned over a thousand jutsu. But because he never mastered a bloodline limit, his strength, while form...

In the Hokage's office, Hiruzen held the visit request sent by the Third Raikage, his expression quite strange.
Because written in it, quite blatantly, was that A was coming to propose marriage, and they asked him to give it serious consideration.
Hiruzen set the document aside with a quiet sigh. The audacity of the request was almost impressive in its brazenness. Did Kumo really think he wouldn't see through such an obvious ploy? The timing alone made their intentions transparent...

"Good evening, I am Quiletta." A blonde woman approached with a glass of wine in hand. Even at a banquet, she hadn't removed her armor.
"Commander Swain instructed me to ensure your safety. Honestly, this is the first time I've seen him so invested in someone. What makes you so special?"
Her sharp eyes studied Cipher with curiosity. For someone as pragmatic as Swain to take an interest in him, Cipher had to be someone of significant value.
Behind her stood a towering ma...

Trump gasped awake in the familiar alcove, but this time something was different. Instead of his usual frustrated outburst, he sat quietly for a moment, staring at his hands. The memory of that grotesque entity wearing Gaara's face was crystal clear.
"What the hell was that thing?" he muttered, touching his forehead where his headband sat. "It ate my headband."
He stood slowly. That creature had been there for every death, collecting his he...

Ryouma shrugged lightly and said, "Alright, I'm actually curious about how Yu holds a fireworks festival too."
"Yay!" Obito jumped up excitedly when he saw Ryouma agree. "Then let's head out right now!"
Even Kakashi, hidden behind his mask, had a slight curve at the corner of his mouth, he could finally go buy the latest issue of Shinobi Ball.
"Have fun!"
After saying goodbye to the people in the room, the three of them got ready to head to Yu.

The Intelligence Division tent on the Kiri front was filled with the smell of preserving chemicals and something that might have been lunch. Or decomposition. Naruki couldn't tell anymore after months of this assignment, and frankly, he'd stopped caring.

Miki looked up from where she was manipulating Raiga's jaw like a puppet. "But look....

When Setsuna went to the entrance to open the door, his mind was actually a bit of a mess.
The First Hokage is knocking on my door. What should I say after I open it?
As soon as the door opened, a face appeared before him, one so familiar it seemed to awaken memories just by looking at it.
His eyes widened.

After Kakashi left the Hokage's office, he immediately summoned Guy and Yamato. The three of them stood atop the Hokage Rock, overlooking the entire Konoha.
He was preparing to brief them for battle.
"If war breaks out, scenes like this will become rare," he said, hands in his pockets.
"Is the situation really that bad?" Guy asked, arms crossed and brow furrowed, a rare moment when he didn't display his usual passionate energy. Even he couldn't maintain his cheerfulness at t...

While Itachi was loyally serving Konoha in another world, Hiruzen had already succeeded in persuading his wayward disciple.
Orochimaru had a sudden change of heart. He turned over a new leaf and swore to dedicate his next life to serving Konoha.
He blamed it all on his youthful immaturity at the time, unable to suppress his petty jealousy toward his Minato's brilliance, and how he had been misled by Danzō. In the end, he betrayed the village's expectations of him.

The aura of a conqueror burst through the clouds, and this nearly tangible presence stirred a storm in the real world. The violent wind spread out with Whitebeard as the eye of the storm. The surrounding Whitebeard Pirates were no weaklings, yet even they had to exert their full strength just to remain standing in the storm.
Immediately following was a slash of Haki, fast as lightning. The raging air around them solidified in an instant, like glass.

At the Marine base, although many of the Marines were absurdly tall and muscular, their physiques were still within Itachi's range of understanding.
But on Whitebeard's side... it truly felt like entering a land of giants.
He finally located the main ship of the Whitebeard Pirates. He leapt lightly from a small boat, transformed into a crow, and silently landed on the deck of the main ship.
The scene before him made him unconsciously hold his breath, Whitebeard, standing at ...

Hiruzen quickly received news from the Hyūga clan. All of the elders of the main house had suddenly "died of illness" overnight.
When the ANBU reported this to him, he was sitting in the Hokage's office. A wisp of smoke rose slowly from the pipe in his hand, his brows slightly furrowed, and his eyes filled with complex emotions.
"All died of illness? Hiashi truly is a man with the Will of Fire," he muttered softly.
In the end, Hiashi was not Fugaku.

"How did you know I came here?" Shin asked with some curiosity. After all, although Orochimaru was quite powerful, he wasn't a sensory-type ninja.
"I recently developed a chakra-sensing barrier and placed it over the entire research facility," Orochimaru said proudly. "Although I haven't yet integrated any defensive functions into it, any chakra fluctuation within the barrier's range cannot escape my detection."
"Is this your way of compensating for not being a sensory ninja?" Shi...

This was a cylindrical underground space, thirty meters tall and a hundred meters in diameter. Aside from the lights on the ceiling and walls, the room was completely empty, it was clearly designed for combat.

What was an atom?
The fundamental building block of matter.
A nucleus surrounded by orbiting electrons, held together by electromagnetic forces.
In the shinobi world, chakra operated on similar principles, but at a far more complex level.
Where atoms had protons and neutrons, chakra had yin and yang components.
Where atoms were bound by nuclear forces, chakra was bound by spiritual and physical energy.
A Tailed Beast Ball represented t...
