Black Zetsu was hidden in the shadows no longer.

While many worried about the mysterious Arthuria and her knights, or the alien gods known as the Asgardians and their claims to rule and protect Earth as part of their domain, others never forgot the true threats.

With negotiations having clearly broken down, the shinobi of Kusagakure wasted no time going on the attack. They might be far weaker than those of larger villages, but they were still shinobi — not so foolish as to think they could talk their way out of this. Not at this point. Only some...

Nor could the actions of her Round Table be concealed; something was happening, and the entirety of Arthuri...
It didn’t take long to move from that tiny village to where Kusagakure itself was found. The village was a pale imitation of Konoha, shielded by wooden walls that looked more like the ones walling off a Konoha war camp than those used by a proper shinobi village.

Kaecilius felt strange. He had thought he would grow more excited as he neared his goal, but instead, he only grew calmer. It was odd—but he wasn’t unhappy.
How could he be? Everything seemed to be falling perfectly into place these days.

I had to admit, the feast was enjoyable. The atmosphere was lively in ways only my own knights could match, yet here there were hundreds of people who could match them in merriment.
More so since even now my knights often fought — often just with sharp remarks and words — but...
And come they did.
“Bitch! We’ll show you what Grass is worth!” one of them screamed, his voice hoarse with rage before a storm of shuriken came slicing through the air. The killing intent in them wasn’t subtle — these weren’t disciplined assassins; they were angry, v...
(Due to a family situation, I had to leave and prepare chapters on short notice, the next handful have all been edited with AI, I did tell it to only deal with grammar and spelling, but didn’t have time to go over it and check, so I can only hope it didn’t fuck it all up.)

I was taken into the back — not impressive, just a small room with a table and two chairs, mostly a place to discuss jobs or count money.
