Two days later.

Los Angeles.

Mario adjusted his black suit, the standard uniform for lower-level S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, and glanced over at Skye in the passenger seat. They'd been sitting in the car for the past twenty minutes.

"Why are we dressed like this again?" Skye asked, tugging at her collar.

Through the car window, ...

At the foot of the mountain, Gandalf stared silently at the corpse of the snow troll.

"No, I do not recognize it. I have never seen one before, at least not in the past few thousand years. But I have read a few lines about them in some ancient texts. They dwell in the uninhabited snowfields of the far north and rarely cross the mountains. ...

When the reinforcements appeared, especially the one leading them, the outcome of the battle was already decided. The orcs immediately fell into chaos, unable to organize even the slightest effective counterattack. Their chieftain was the first to be beheaded, collapsing stiffly to the ground, his corpse burned on the spot.

As for the depu...

"At least there is one piece of good news. Gollum probably has not fallen into Mordor's hands yet."

Of course, Gandalf was not someone who could not tell what was important and what was not.

It was precisely because he had confirmed this piece of intelligence that he had not been overly anxious, staying in Gondor for quite some time....

NYP Ch. 35

After Dan's death, the war changed.

The conflict between Konoha and Suna escalated almost overnight. Maybe it was revenge. Maybe both sides just wanted to end this drawn-out mess as quickly as possible. Either way, the battlefield transformed into a meat grinder.

Intelligence raids became constant. Both villages sent infiltration tea...

Kenji watched his three students celebrate, letting them have their moment. When their excitement finally started to settle, he spoke up again.

"There's one more thing you need to know. According to village regulations, once you're promoted to chunin, Team 10 officially disbands. From here on out, you'll form your own squads for missions."...

NYP Ch. 33

Kenji turned his attention to the three surviving Suna genin.

They stood frozen in place, weapons dropped, faces pale. Two boys and one girl, none of them looking older than thirteen or fourteen. Fresh graduates, probably. Sent to guard a supply convoy because Suna didn't have anyone better to spare.

The sight would've been pitiful i...

NYP Ch. 32

The days that followed settled into a new routine.

Every morning, Kenji and Aoi would make their way to Tsunade's medical tent for training. She'd drill them on anatomy, chakra control exercises, and practical healing techniques. Aoi soaked it all up like a sponge, her natural talent becoming more refined with each session. Kenji focused o...

NYP Ch. 31

"Alright, girl, I heard you've already learned the Mystical Palm Technique. Let's see what you can do."

Tsunade's gaze settled on Aoi with an intensity that made the girl straighten unconsciously. Without waiting for a response, she turned and picked up a white rabbit from a small cage on the table behind her. The animal sat calm in her ha...

After the initial violent eruption, the Going Merry finally caught the rhythm of the Knock Up Stream and began riding it upward.

Nami gripped the railing, watching as they approached the point where the massive column of water would run out. They were sailing at a ninety-degree vertical angle, the ship's bow pointed straight at the sky. 2025-11-06 02:13:47 +0000 UTC View Post

OP: AMP Ch. 152

The members of the Saruyama Alliance stood frozen, still processing what they'd just witnessed.

When they looked at Marcus and the Straw Hats now, their expressions had shifted.

They didn't know the full story of what had just happened. And of course, they didn't understand who that distant ship belonged to or why Marcus had attacked...

OP: AMP Ch. 151

The Straw Hat crew set sail once more.

Marcus stood by the shore, watching ship after ship leave Mock Town's harbor. The place was a constant flow of vessels, pirates arrived, restocked, caused trouble, and left. It was like watching a revolving door.

"What are you looking at?" Robin asked, appearing beside him.

He didn't answe...

OP: AMP Ch. 150

Marcus had gotten what he came for. The shopping trip had been successful. But throughout the entire journey back, he'd been glued to his mini-map, scanning for any sign of Blackbeard's marker.

For three straight days, he'd been obsessively checking that map every few minutes, hoping to stumble across the bastard who'd eventually betray Wh...

MCIM Ch. 83

Thor stood frozen. Mario's conditions were simple enough, his father was still alive, and he remained on good terms with the Dwarf King. Getting an Infinity Gauntlet forged wouldn't be difficult.

But Loki...

His gaze shifted to his brother, then to Mjolnir still in Mario's possession, then to thoughts of the shattered Bifrost. His ja...

Universe 2.

The group emerged in an underground space that looked similar in style to Mario's base, but comparing the two was like comparing a public plaza to a small apartment. This version was noticeably more cramped.

The first thing Mario did upon arriving was pull a couch from his inventory and place it on the ground. Last time h...

MCIM Ch. 81

The figure in the dark red suit looked like an oversized cockroach, twin batons gripped in gloved hands. But in Hell's Kitchen, there was only one person who dressed like that.

Daredevil.

Mario crouched down and checked on the mugger who'd been trying to rob him just seconds ago. The guy was out cold, breathing but completely unconsc...

Mario held the Soul Stone in his palm. Then he looked at Yondu.

"If you're gonna rob me, just get it over with. The suspense is killing me."

Yondu was a Ravager through and through, even if he didn't know exactly what the Soul Stone did, his instincts screamed that anything valued by someone like Mario was worth a fortune.

Mari...

"Ah! What's wrong?"

The geisha cried out in fright, flustered as they hurried to wipe the water off the man's body.

The man didn't care at all that his clothes were soaked. He stared fixedly at Nagato, the drunkenness on his face vanishing instantly without a trace. His face was full of shock.

That reaction was too suspicious.<...

LOTR: TMCP Ch. 332

After leaving the Shire, Gandalf, together with Garrett, went to The Prancing Pony and found Aragorn, who was resting there.

This fellow seemed to be quite idle lately, so...

"There is something I need your help with."

And just like that, Aragorn was recruited by Gandalf.

The two left the inn and headed east, beginning to...

Bilbo held the bucket of milk in his hands and drank it all in one gulp.

"Still the same taste as before," he said.

In other words, no taste at all.

"Really? You are planning to keep that as part of your belongings too?"

After Bilbo finished his milk, Gandalf asked.

"Of course. It is not as if I have any real use fo...

LOTR: TMCP Ch. 330

Knock, knock, knock...

Gandalf raised his staff and tapped the door of Bag End with its tip.

From inside came a tense voice:

"No thank you! We do not want any more visitors, well-wishers, or distant relations!"

He shook his head helplessly.

It seemed this fellow had been bothered quite a bit lately.

"Frodo, I am not as good as you think I am."

One night in Bag End, after Frodo had fallen asleep, Bilbo lit a lamp in his study and began to write a letter.

"I do not even know what made me decide this, but it certainly was not kindness. Perhaps it is because I think that among all my relatives, all those who bear the name Baggins, o...

Now came the moment of truth.

Kenji focused his awareness through the mental connection with his puppet, feeling the chakra circulating through the biological sphere. The energy flowed smoothly through the pathways he'd constructed, responding to his spiritual presence without resistance.

The question was whether the Swift Release bl...

NYP Ch. 29

Life had settled into a routine after capturing Sō. So many weeks had passed. Kenji spent his days fighting on the battlefield or treating wounded soldiers in the medical tents. The cycle repeated endlessly. But he could feel something changing. The intensity of the battles was decreasing gradually. Casualties were mounting on both sides, and b...

NYP Ch. 28

The retreat signal came before they'd even fully cleared the battlefield.

Kenji heard the horn blast echo and immediately changed direction, angling back toward Konoha's defensive line. His students fell in behind him.

They weren't moving at full speed. The captive on his shoulder made rapid travel awkward, and Kaede needed time to r...

NYP Ch. 27

The frustrating part was that Iwa ninja seemed personally invested in fighting Kenji specifically.

Despite failing to break through Earth Spear's defense repeatedly, he refused to disengage. He just kept attacking from every angle, hitting Kenji over and over in rapid succession, each strike coming from a different direction before Kenji c...

---Third POV---

Domie hugged her arms around herself and curled up on the ground, her body trembling uncontrollably.

"Why does this world have such cruel punishments?!"

When she saw that NineTails was about to speak again, she shrank back and covered her ears.

"No, please, don't say any more!"

She looked as though s...

---Third POV---

On the other side, at the auction house, NineTails saw the reply and grew anxious.

[Wait, can we talk this over again?]

But no one responded.

All the players knew tomorrow morning's opportunity was rare and fleeting.

No matter how it turned out, they had to act first and think later.

Very quick...

The Wandering Islands Trading Company occupied one of the nicer buildings on Jaya, which wasn't saying much, considering most structures on this pirate haven looked like they'd collapse in a strong wind. But this place at least had fresh paint and windows without bars.

Marcus approached the entrance with Alvida at his side, ready to finall...

When Bellamy finally regained consciousness, everything around him felt wrong.

The ceiling above wasn't the one from his usual sleeping quarters. The smell was different too.

"I'm... not dead?"

The words came out as barely a whisper. His throat was dry, his tongue thick.

He honestly hadn't expected to wake up at all. That...
