“It’s me!”
A slender figure emerged from the bushes.
Seeing her, Zhao Wuji froze, and Dai Mubai, along with the others, was equally dumbfounded.
Only Tang San’s body trembled slightly, a mix of excitement and disbelief surging through him. It felt unreal.<...
"Ice Empress, it's time to go," Qian Renjue called out to her from the side.
"Got it!"
The Ice Empress nodded and turned around, walking over to stand beside Qian Renjue and Xiao Wu.
Her face flushed slightly as she glanced at Xiao Wu.
Then, to Qian Renjue's su...
"I could sue you for slander, you know!"
Uchiha Gin, who was initially hoping to bond with the two injured Raikages, turned visibly annoyed upon hearing the First Raikage's words. His expression darkened immediately, and he almost started pointing fingers. As someone who prided...
The ninja who came to deliver a message swiftly departed after finishing his task. Uchiha, feeling somewhat puzzled, rubbed his chin in confusion.
At this point in time, instead of preparing for the upcoming meeting, why was Senju Hashirama looking for a laid-back person like him?<...
“I’ll heal you,” Hanekawa said, stepping toward Kakashi Hatake.
“No need,” Kakashi replied, shaking his head.
“You’re sparring with Might Guy next. Save your chakra.”
“I still have plenty of chakra,” Hanekawa said, raising his hand.
Mystica...
"Hanekawa!"
Kurenai Yuhi jogged up to Hanekawa, clenched her fists, and said, "You have to avenge me!"
"Don’t worry," Hanekawa replied with a smile.
"I’ll make him kneel and beg for mercy!"
"That’s what I wanted to hear!"
Kurenai’s lips curved i...
“Shisui was so strong, and he still lost?”
Uchiha Obito looked as if he had seen a ghost.
Both he and Shisui possessed the two-tomoe Sharingan, yet Shisui was far superior to him in strength. Even so, he was defeated by Hanekawa.
Was the three-tomoe Sharingan the only...
Uchiha Shisui walked to the center of the arena. After exchanging greetings with Hanekawa, he activated his Sharingan without hesitation.
The scarlet glow of his eyes lit up, revealing two tomoe spinning within.
“Shisui has already reached the two-tomoe stage?”
Ka...
Hanekawa?!
Uchiha Obito stared at the name displayed on the large screen, and his heart skipped a beat. However, he quickly composed himself.
In the year following graduation, under the guidance of Minato Namikaze, his strength had grown by leaps and bounds.
More impo...
"Become a god?!"
Xiao Wu stared blankly at Qian Renxue, her eyes filled with awe, without the slightest doubt.
Da Ming’s large bull eyes reflected the golden light, and he seemed both startled and enlightened.
The golden, divine six-winged angel stood tall, radi...
“Consider yourself lucky, you clever little rabbit!”
Qian Renxue's lips curved slightly, clearly satisfied with the honest answer.
She reached out and pinched Xiao Wu's cheek.
"Ow~"
Xiao Wu’s expression showed a hint of pain.
Er Ming immediatel...
"Sigh~ Little Haruka really bullied me for being old and powerless!"
Uchiha Gin let out a sorrowful sigh, disheartened after failing to score a second bowl of honey-drenched shaved ice. His gaze shifted to the excited Chiyo, who was happily holding her red bean ice cream.
Si...
As one dish after another, with a presentation that seemed to embody "manly tears and feminine silence," was brought into the private dining room, the diners at the barbecue restaurant, regardless of gender, exchanged knowing glances and quietly murmured amongst themselves. It was cle...
Three days later, in the morning.
Hanekawa prepared breakfast while waiting for Tsunade to wake up.
His thoughts wandered to the attack on Rin Nohara during the second round of the Chūnin Exams.
Though he was already highly capable, he realized he still lacked profic...
“It’s been taken care of—a toad,” Hanekawa said as he reappeared in front of Rin Nohara and Kurenai Yuhi.
“As expected of you!” Rin said in amazement as she put away her kunai.
“With Hanekawa around, we don’t even need to lift a finger to take first place,”...
“He’s Lord Jiraiya? One of the Legendary Sannin from Konoha?”
“He’s nothing like what I imagined.”
“He doesn’t seem very reliable.”
After a few moments of silence, the room burst into hushed commentary.
In their minds, the Legendary Sannin were suppos...
At the entrance of Tsunade's house, Hanekawa stood gazing at the snowy sky, momentarily lost in thought.
He recalled the Chūnin Exam rules that Asuma Sarutobi mentioned last week. They were not much different from the rules in the Chūnin Exam that Naruto participated in.
T...
Early Morning.
Hanekawa took out a key and opened Tsunade’s house door.
He glanced at the overcast sky, closed the door, and exhaled a puff of warm breath.
After December arrived, Konoha’s temperature had plummeted.
It probably wouldn’t be long before the fir...
Outside Uzumaki Kushina’s house, Hanekawa stood at a distance, observing Kakashi Hatake.
As Kakashi completed a series of hand seals, a sharp, piercing sound filled the air, reminiscent of countless birds chirping in unison. It was both chaotic and awe-inspiring.
A surge o...
Tsunade suppressed the strange feeling in her heart and turned toward the bathroom.
By the time she finished washing up, breakfast was ready—lean pork congee.
"Thank you."
Tsunade knew it was prepared specially for her by Hanekawa.
"It's nothing," Hanekawa re...
Since they didn’t drink alcohol and their appetites were small due to their age, Uchiha Shisui, Kurenai Yuhi, and the others quickly finished eating.
“It feels like they’ll take a while to finish,” Hanekawa remarked casually, glancing at Tsunade.
“Do we need to wai...
The Chunin Exams are one of the most important milestones in a ninja’s career.
Unless there are special circumstances, no one wants to remain a Genin for life.
More importantly, Genin cannot take on missions alone. Only by advancing to Chunin or Jonin can they do so.
"Tang San!"
Zhao Wuji shouted, his eyes filled with a mix of shock and horror as he looked at the blood-soaked figure lying in the pool of blood.
He quickly moved closer to check if Tang San was alive or dead.
"Ah! Zhuqing..."
Ning Rongrong gasped at the sight ...
Staying alive was what mattered most!
Tang Hao endured the humiliation, watching Ah Yin's sycophantic demeanor before him. His heart ached so much that it felt suffocating.
Once again, he had traded Ah Yin for a chance to survive!
But the weight on his shoulders was u...
"Master?!"
Seeing Ah Yin kneeling respectfully before someone else, Tang Hao froze in shock.
Ah Yin... has she become someone else’s possession?!
As Tang Hao stood there in a daze, strange laughter echoed from the treetops.
"Jie Jie Jie..."
"Who?!"
...
“Are they really going to fight?”
Sensing an intense and chilling atmosphere, a group of small kids shrank their necks nervously, casting worried glances at Uchiha Gin, who was at the center of the impending storm. Despite Gin-san's habit of tricking kids out of their pocket mo...
For some reason, ever since Uchiha Haruka awakened a new ocular technique, she had been avoiding Uchiha Gin, either intentionally or unintentionally. Even when they ran into each other, she would lower her head and leave in a hurry, leaving the curly-haired man rather puzzled.
...
"Do you think Rin misses me?" Obito Uchiha asked with a goofy smile as he thought of Rin Nohara.
"I don’t know," Kakashi Hatake replied calmly.
Compared to six months ago, Kakashi had become noticeably steadier and colder. Unlike other squads, their team hadn’t gone thro...
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
Hanekawa didn’t follow Tsunade to the casino but instead trained in Water Release with Kurenai Yuhi.
At this point, he had already unlocked Chunin-level attributes for Wind, Water, Lightning, Earth, and Fire.
However, to advance to th...
"Hey, where are the two Anbu assigned to watch me?"
Uzumaki Kushina stood at the door, holding the medicine list, and shouted.
The next second, two figures appeared, both wearing masks.
"Lady Kushina, how can we assist you?"
The Anbu on the left asked respectfully....
