Yukino stood calmly, assessing the cursed spirits around her, while her mother and sister looked on in shock.
"Grade 4 cursed spirits?" Yukino murmured. Thanks to her training with the Service Club members and the guidance of Ryuji and the Hasaba sisters, she could now recognize cursed spi...
At the Yukinoshita family estate, late at night...
Normally, Yukino lived alone in a rented apartment away from her family home. Returning here was rare and hardly something she looked forward to.
But tonight, she had received an unexpected message from her mother, asking her to com...
In this era, there wasn't much in terms of leisure or entertainment, and with dinnertime approaching, Tsunade suggested she could cook something for them. It wasn't often they got time like this, so why not?
Orochimaru went along with it. Following her instructions, he entertained Nawaki w...
Jiraiya didn't end up staying in Amegakure but instead chose to remain in Sound Village. It was surprising, yet Orochimaru understood why.
It wasn't just because Nagato might be the Child of Prophecy, but also due to the complicated bond between the three of them. When they were younger, J...
It was supposed to be a free kick, but it felt more like a corner kick.
And a very threatening set-piece opportunity at that.
Tonetto, having been handed a yellow card, stormed back in frustration. Clearly, he was unhappy with the referee's decision, especially since it handed the o...
It was just over a minute into the match, but no one could understand why both Napoli and Roma seemed to place so much importance on this free kick near the Roma penalty area.
Except for the goalkeepers, all twenty players from both teams were packed inside or just outside Roma's penalty b...
Claudius nodded and said, "Yes, it's pretty much what Sengoku laid out."
Without waiting for any responses, he tapped the ash from his cigarette and continued, "The reason I'm calling this the 'Seven Warlords of the Sea' project is that I want CP-X to gain control over seven powerful pirat...
Listening to Claudius's explanation, Sengoku, Gis, and the others all looked visibly confused.
Even Nusjuro seemed puzzled. He frowned slightly and asked, "Using thieves to catch thieves? What do you mean by that? Explain it clearly."
Claudius smiled, took another puff from his ciga...
In the Holy Land of Mariejois, inside a vast conference room within the headquarters of the World Government, the most powerful figures were gathered. It had been about half a year since Roger's execution, yet the world was still reeling from the aftermath.
The Marines and CP agencies had ...
Kyoka smiled at Kazama's eagerness, and once he was standing in front of Kaminari, she raised a hand to formally introduce them.
"Kaminari, this is the keyboard player I recommended to you, Kazama Gin. He's a first-year student in the Hero course at Seijin High School."
Then she tur...
In a darkened room somewhere in Japan, dozens of monitors cast a flickering glow, illuminating the area with an eerie light.
Plop.
Plop.
Two foul-smelling puddles of sludge splattered onto the ground, each depositing a battered figure—Tomura Shigaraki and Kurogiri.
"...
In the days that followed, Kaminari's life returned to normal.
Every morning, he woke up early and took the subway to Omiya Park for his usual morning jog. Sometimes, he was joined by Midnight-sensei, but as she'd told him before, she wasn't the type to push him hard. She kept her word, to...
Kaminari looked at his mother, who was crying, and hugged her tightly, concern evident in his gaze as he glanced over her worried expression. He spoke softly, feeling a pang of guilt.
"You already know, huh?"
"Yeah, we got a call from U.A. about an hour ago..." His father sighed, th...
In the early morning, a sliver of sunlight slipped through the gap in the window, casting a warm glow into the room.
Orochimaru stirred, feeling the warmth of the sun. Tsunade, resting her head on his arm, slowly opened her eyes, a contented smile on her face.
"Awake so early?" she ...
Jiraiya couldn't help but feel suspicious of the villagers' attitude. The respect and admiration they had for Orochimaru seemed almost surreal. A thought crossed his mind, could these villagers be constructs Orochimaru created himself? Or was he caught in some kind of illusion?
In Jiraiya'...
"…"
This damn guy, Eriri thought, cursing herself. If I'd known she was this frustrating, I wouldn't have worried at all. What a waste of my emotions.
"So… what about my side effects?"
Utaha, already familiar with her own drawbacks, smirked, clearly enjoying Eriri's panic...
Originally, Eriri had planned to meet Ryuji last night.
But unexpectedly, she'd fallen asleep, exhausted from using up her cursed energy. When she woke up in the morning, she barely had time to rush to school.
Finally, during lunch break, she had her chance.
Excitedly, she wa...
In Italy, the match between Napoli and Roma is often called the "Southern Derby."
These two clubs are the most competitive teams from southern Italy and have both won the Serie A title in the past. However, with Napoli's relegation years ago, the derby had lost its spark. Now, after seven ...
During the two-week international break, Napoli meticulously prepared for the upcoming match against Roma. The same was true for the Giallorossi. Both teams were determined to come out on top, but Roma, in particular, were desperate for a win.
Anyone familiar with football understands the ...
Amidst the bustling crowd, Stussy was concealed, observing the people around her with a slight smile. She couldn't help but feel a bit impressed as she murmured to herself, "As expected, His Highness called it right. Things have already spiraled out of control."
Before coming to Logue Town...
Roger's footsteps were steady, unhurried, with a faint smile lingering on his face. He seemed at peace, as if life and death had already ceased to matter to him. Each step he took reverberated through the square, his presence pressing on the hearts of everyone watching.
As he passed by Cla...
Just as Midoriya was hesitating over what to do next, he noticed something unsettling, villains who had been taken down by Aizawa-sensei earlier were now staggering back to their feet. Most of them seemed like brute types, with tough bodies that could withstand a beating.
These thugs, obli...
"Kaminari!!"
Midoriya shouted, watching helplessly from a distance as Shigaraki lunged at Kaminari. A deep sense of frustration surged within him, knowing he couldn't protect his friends the way All Might could if he had full control over One For All.
"Boom!"
Shigaraki shatte...
"Why on earth is she sleeping on the floor?"
Sayuri Sawamura had heard some noise coming from Eriri's room and walked over curiously. When she peeked in, she saw her daughter fast asleep on the floor, surrounded by an empty drawing board and scattered art supplies.
Shaking her head ...
"Dark red! It looks dangerous, and in the domain space, it seems like Ryuji is using some kind of slashing technique!"
"Slashing technique?"
Nanami said nothing, simply shaking his head.
Clearly, the domain he was seeing was completely different from what others were describi...
Jiraiya wasn't a fool, and neither was Tsunade.
Just from listening to Orochimaru's explanations, they both understood the immense potential of his cloning technology. If left unchecked, Orochimaru could eventually amass a force powerful enough to challenge the entire ninja world. It was s...
The Land of Rice Fields a small, neutral country.
It was a place that Orochimaru had managed exceptionally well.
Thanks to the memories shared among his clones, Orochimaru's network operated seamlessly. The clones' data served as a kind of backup, allowing the system to retain every...
"Seriously, why did we have to change clothes as soon as we got here?" Jiraiya muttered as they walked along the dirt road.
Since crossing into the Land of Fields, they had swapped out their battle-worn shinobi gear for simple civilian clothes. Orochimaru and Jiraiya wore plain robes, whil...
After hearing Orochimaru's words, Tsunade was momentarily stunned.
Before she could respond, Orochimaru continued, "War breeds hatred. The more hatred there is, the more wars will erupt, it's a vicious cycle, one that hasn't been broken yet."
He paused, letting his words sink in. "S...
The story of David Luiz and Real Madrid is almost like a fleeting encounter.
At the time, Real Madrid's scouts were eyeing a team in Brazil's third division, where David Luiz was playing. They were optimistic about Luiz's potential and even extended an invitation. But back then, Luiz's tea...
