Less than five kilometers from the town, deep in the dense forest, Pakura dispelled her Transformation Jutsu. She gripped a kunai in each hand, crouching with bent knees, her expression filled with killing intent as she stared down over a dozen Kiri ninjas.
Two fireballs from her Extremely Steaming Murder floated at her sides, their searing heat rendering the Kiri ninjas' Hiding in Mist Technique nearly ineffective. At her feet lay a Kiri ninja, his body shriveled like a dried corpse, c...

After seeing the ocean scenery for so long, it inevitably started to feel dull and monotonous.
Kei and Minato had been excitedly observing the sea for half a day on the first day. After that, most of their time was spent discussing their newly recruited disciples or exchanging insights on ninjutsu. Occasionally, they would practice techniques, comparing moves and strategies for battle.
Minato truly was a bona fide genius. The various traits he possessed were enough to make even so...

After Danzō was urgently taken for treatment, the Hokage's office regained its calm.
Hiruzen stood by the window, watching the setting sun while refilling his extinguished pipe with fresh tobacco. Smoke began to rise, obscuring his expression.
Danzō's words had indeed served as a reminder. The Land of Whirlpools had already been destroyed. Konoha had lost its most stable source of a jinchūriki. If something were to happen to Kushina, finding another suitable jinchūriki quickly...

Danzō?
His head was wrapped like a mummy, leaving only his eyes and mouth exposed. Wearing a hospital gown yet donning a samurai helmet, he radiated such intense resentment that it almost felt tangible… It had to be Danzō!
Kei's eyes showed a flicker of surprise, momentarily doubting whether he had recognized the right person. He never expected that in just one day, Danzō would be reduced to such a miserable state by the black trait.
But as he noticed the ANBU ninja who...

Kei had no idea about the chaos within Root or Danzō's fury.
After spending the entire day sorting through the information in his mind, he noticed the sun beginning to set.
Kurenai, Guy, and Genma, along with the others, had finally managed to maintain their water-walking stance under the seal's restrictions.
Calling out to them, he led the group back to Konoha. Once again, he treated them to dinner and reminded them to bring bento for tomorrow before dismissing them. Watch...

Shikaku had no doubts about Kei's political wisdom.
After a brief exchange, he pulled out a D-rank mission scroll that had been prepared in advance.
"Cleaning up trash from a riverbed?" Kei glanced at the mission details on the scroll, thought for a moment, and didn't refuse.
Compared to D-rank missions like hunting wild boars or driving away beasts, cleaning a riverbed was time-consuming and physically demanding, but the corresponding reward was noticeably higher.

Kushina's suspicions were confirmed.
Realizing that it was Kei who had vented her frustration on her behalf, she slowly calmed down and wiped away her tears. Hugging her knees, she sat contentedly in the corner of the sofa.
Maybe it was the alcohol, or perhaps the emotional ups and downs had drained her. As the peace settled in, drowsiness crept over her.
"I'll heat up some water for your bath. You can sleep in the guest room afterward."
Seeing her nod slightly with he...

"Hey, hey! What's with that disgusted and disdainful look on your face?" Reeking of alcohol, Kushina unhappily lowered her arms from where they had been crossed over her chest.
Sure, she was loud and brash, but she still had the looks and the figure of a beautiful girl! Was that expression really necessary?
"How much did you drink?"
Ignoring her complaint, Kei glanced around the messy living room, feeling utterly speechless.
The once clean and tidy coffee table was now...

For a transmigrator or reincarnator, knowing the storyline was the greatest advantage.
And if one could remember the finer details of the plot, it became effortless to obtain things that ordinary people might struggle for years to acquire.

The food at Shushu-ya was even more delicious than Kurenai, Guy, and Genma had imagined.
When they found out that this restaurant actually had shares owned by Kei, not only did they get to eat for free, but they also received a generous dividend every month.
Without hesitation, the three of them decided to indulge themselves. Even Kurenai, who usually ate with the most restraint, ended up eating so much that she could barely sit up straight, sighing internally at the situation.

Since she specialized in genjutsu, Kurenai had a far deeper understanding of it than Guy and Genma. And the more she understood, the clearer it became just how powerful the genjutsu this young jonin had just cast truly was.
That subtle, unique fragrance had drawn them into an illusion without them even realizing it, using a technique similar to scent-based genjutsu. Within a single breath, it had disrupted and influenced their sense of smell, sight, touch, taste, and hearing—yet none ...

Kei gave Kushina an exasperated look.
And what was with that ridiculous nickname—Pig girl?
He was a grown man, male, straight, not some Sejuani riding a giant boar. How did that nickname even get attached to him?
"Aww~ but you were so cute when you were little! Anyone would've mistaken you for a girl~"
Kushina chuckled, recalling the amusing memory.
Kei rolled his eyes. "You were probably the only one who thought that."

The streets of Konoha near noon were bustling with people under the warm sunlight.
Kei strolled towards the jonin standby station, savoring a red bean chestnut yōkan. His gaze drifted across the merchants, civilians, and ninjas along the way.
Ordinary villagers rarely had any tags, and even when they did, they were mostly useless white or green ones. In contrast, ninjas had a higher probability of possessing them, though not all did—many were blank slates.

On an autumn afternoon, the warm sunlight bathed the Hokage Building, shining over its timeworn, weathered exterior that had stood for decades.
Inside, the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, clad in his ceremonial Hokage robe, swiftly flipped through the "Graduates of the 46th Year Ninja Academy" and the "List of Open Spots in Ninja Squads" on his desk.
Matching each genin's strengths and weaknesses, he carefully formed balanced teams and assigned suitable jonin instructors.

Outside the valley, the onlookers, each harboring their own thoughts, were completely speechless as they watched the flashes of light erupting inside again and again.
The battle between these two colossal beings had completely destroyed the valley. Mountains had turned into valleys, valleys into plains, plains into chasms. Stones rained from the sky, something that should only happen in the Land of Earth.
Spies stationed nearby had tried every possible method to uncover details of...

Under Chiriku's guidance, the two finally arrived at the guest room designated for visitors to rest.
The simple tatami room had minimal furnishings: just a small table, a candlestick, and a bedding set.

"Much appreciated." After Chiriku left, Jiraiya lit the candlestick on the table and began inspecting the room's ...

Jiraiya and Naruto, having left Konoha, had no specific destination in mind. They mostly wandered within the Land of Fire.
However, unlike Jiraiya's previous travels, this time their destinations were not limited to bustling towns and cities. After leaving the village, they occasionally ventured into remote, quiet mountain villages as well.
As expected, such remote places often harbored stories. Instances of the strong bullying the weak were common, and strange creatures often avo...

"Ninjas are not trained into gods, they are fought into gods." Hearing Tsunade say this, Tanaka had to admit this truth.

However, when he saw Tanaka stand firmly with Tsunade without hesitation, a shadow flickered deep in his eyes.

Tanaka did not say anything and chose to observe instead.
It wasn't because he lacked the right to speak, but because he had only been in this shadow world for less than three months. His understanding of the Great Ninja War was limited to the original story. Without fully grasping the bigger picture of the war, it was only natural to remain a listener.
Moreover, he had never been on the battlefield. He lacked both knowledge and a reputation that would earn others' trust. Most imp...
