Chapter 48: My Busy LifeSeeing Byakuya's desolate figure fade away into the distance, Yahiko and Konan felt a deep sense of depression settle over them. In their minds, this attack was orchestrated by someone within Konoha who was dissatisfied with Jiraiya and chose to vent their anger on the Akatsuki organization instead. Now, because of this vendetta, both the Akatsuki and Byakuya were entan...

Chapter 47: Yahiko's Speculation"Anbu of Konoha? That's impossible! Jiraiya-sensei..."Upon learning from Byakuya that they were attacked by Konoha ninja, Konan furrowed her brows tightly, exclaiming it was impossible.It wasn't that Konan didn't believe Byakuya; it was just that the conclusion that the attackers were from Konoha's Anbu seemed too exaggerated. Even if Kon...

Chapter 43: Danzo's Focus on ByakuyaCompared to the lazy and indolent Hanzou, Danzo, who was active in the Kusagakure area, was far more diligent and conscientious.The reason was simple: ever since Minato Namikaze had single-handedly reversed the disadvantage on the battlefield and secured victory at the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, this young man in his early twenties had emerged as the leading ...

Chapter 38: OutingYahiko's head dipped in a hesitant nod. Byakuya's understanding of him had grown considerably of late.

Chapter 37: Two Methods"But if you lose, I want you to give up your position as the leader of Akatsuki. At that point, you'll clearly lack the qualifications to lead this organization."Yahiko didn't respond impulsively.

Chapter 35: The Birth of Black ZetsuWhen Obito asked him a direct question, Madara showed a flicker of irritation. He didn't like making empty boasts. It seemed like age hadn't brought any significant upgrades to the Tsuchikage, Ōnoki. While Ōnoki had more wrinkles, they wouldn't help against Madara's raw power.Dust Release was a formidable technique, but it was useless if it cou...

Are you displeased with my aptitude?"Byakuya...

Chapter 12: Berserker! Go fight!"Your assistant is a human with a lot of experience using firearms. But facing a magus, she probably wouldn't have thought I'd resort to something as 'unorthodox' as a bomb, right?"The old adage held true: magic and technology were double-edged swords.
