Title: Atalanta Is So Adorable!
Fairy Armament: Cocytus.
A summoned creature once called forth by Aleister in Paris.
Now, Naoki had summoned it into his body, leveraging his dragon attributes, the nighttime setting, and the strong water element of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, completing possession by the fairy.
As a dragon race, Cocytus itself boasted imm...
Title: Atalanta vs. Naoki
Somewhere in the Hanging Gardens, perhaps what could be called a garden.
At Amakusa’s urging, and given that he didn’t need to personally deal with the Black Faction, Naoki stayed behind and wandered to this place.
Though the Hanging Gardens was a fortress packed with deadly weapons, as its legend suggested, it also had a garden aspect. E...
Title: The Reunion of Naruto and His Friends
“Neji, Hinata, don’t be too sad. Tsunade-sama and all of us will definitely avenge you. The bastard who dared treat the Hyuga Clan like that won’t get away with it!”
Ino stood beside Hinata, gently patting her shoulder.
Hinata looked blank, her face full of sorrow, not saying a word.
Neji remained silent.
<...
Title: Konoha’s Jonin, Chunin, and Genin Gather
“Is that so…”
Neji nodded, turning toward his home.
After walking a short distance, a Hyuga branch member spotted him and ran over excitedly.
“Neji! Neji! We’re free! Finally free! From today, we won’t be oppressed by the main branch anymore! We’re free!”
“Yeah…”
Neji re...
Title: Visiting
“If there’s a problem, just ask directly. What’s the point of standing here thinking alone?”
Tenten grumbled, then dashed to the side of a man staring oddly at Neji, grabbing his shoulder with one hand.
“Hey, what’s your deal? Why are you looking at my teammate so rudely?!”
“Sorry! Sorry!”
The man hurriedly turned hi...
Title: Neji, Everyone’s Stares at You Seem Strange
“This…” Sakura showed hesitation.
“Don’t hesitate, Sakura! Didn’t we agree? We’ll get stronger together and protect Konoha! Come on!” Naruto shouted.
“Haaa… fine, but I can’t train too long. Otherwise, my muscles will get as big as yours, and that’d look awful.” Sakura muttered.
In...
Title: Kakashi Dies of Embarrassment
“Hmm? Hahaha! Am I really this strong now?”
Hearing Imperial Neji’s words, the corners of Naruto’s mouth stretched almost to his ears.
“So I already have the strength to become a Kage! I’m awesome, huh?”
He said, winking at Sakura.
A few wrinkles appeared on Sakura’s smooth forehead.
“Yo...
Title: So, If You Go Out, Don’t Forget to Bring a Scanner
The ruins of Yggdmillennia Castle.
Two days ago, this place was reduced to a small meteor crater due to Naoki’s sudden attack. Now, a simple workshop had been constructed there.
Earth, trees, stones, metal… As Avicebron’s Master, Roche Frain Yggdmillennia was a skilled golem craftsman. In just two days,...
Title: Before the War
In the air, some distance from Trifas.
The Hanging Gardens of Babylon.
A garden Semiramis never possessed or even saw in her lifetime had now transformed from illusion into reality, floating hundreds of meters above the ground, advancing toward Trifas, visible to the naked eye.
“Isn’t this a bit overkill?”
On the observati...

Title: I, Taa-nyan, Shoot ‘Til It Explodes!
Caren felt the atmosphere around her was slightly off.
First, there was the Saintess named Jeanne. Normally, she’d borrow Gray’s body to go out, claiming to search for anomalies and dragging Naoki along. Whether for a full day or not, it happened at least twice daily. But since returning yesterday afternoon, she hadn’t appear...
Title: Big Brother and Little Sister
“Leave my side.”
“Live independently.”
This was the first time Gray had heard Naoki say such things.
‘Leave Big Brother’s side.’
Those words, spoken lightly by Naoki, hit Gray like a sledgehammer, striking her heart and mind with devastating force.
She had never considered this possibility.
...
Title: The Division of Imperial Power
“Grandma Tsunade, you were already amazing, it’s just that Lee’s even more amazing! Martial arts are incredible! If you learned martial arts too, you definitely wouldn’t be weaker than Lee!”
Naruto comforted her.
“Right, Tsunade-sama is one of the Legendary Sannin! If she learned martial arts, she wouldn’t lose to Le...
Title: The Full Power of Imperial Lee
“This is the Yin Seal and the Hundred Healings Technique. I didn’t expect Tsunade-sama of this era to master this jutsu too. I’d only heard of it before, but now I finally get to witness its power firsthand.”
“To think such severe injuries could heal in an instant—truly incredible!”
At some point, Imperial Lee had posit...
Title: Tsunade of Konoha vs. Imperial Lee
“Hmph! Liars! You two brats! Turns out you’re all underestimating me!”
Tsunade looked annoyed, turning her gaze back to the Imperial Trio:
“Come on! Let’s fight to our heart’s content. You won’t refuse, will you?”
“Ooooooh! Fight to our heart’s content! Let youth! Let passion blaze!”
Imp...
Title: Shikaku’s Analysis and Tsunade’s Sparring Test
“Despicable bastard! If I catch them, I’ll crush every bone in their body!”
Tsunade gritted her teeth.
*KNOCK!* *KNOCK!*
A knock sounded at the door.
Tsunade lazily said, “Come in.”
Shikaku opened the door and entered with a serious expression.
“Tsunade-sama.”
<...
Title: The Seizure of Hyuga Eyes and Shocking the Ninja World
“It’s Naruto… as you can see, the Hyuga Clan was attacked by a mysterious person, and all the Byakugan of the main family were taken.”
Tsunade answered with a heavy voice.
“Damn it! In Konoha Village, how could something like this happen?! Hinata? Neji? Are they okay?” Naruto asked anxiously.
Title: Gray: Without Big Brother, I’m Just a Loser
The next day, the third day of the Holy Grail War.
Inside the church in Sighişoara.
“Rider, how’s Archer doing?”
“Since she returned, Big Sis hasn’t shown herself. I only saw her once when she came back.”
Emerging behind Amakusa, Achilles leaned against a pillar and answered.
...
Title: From Hell, to Heaven
Naoki was unaware that Merry had begun orchestrating a war among women behind his back. For now, having secured Merry’s promise, he was already contemplating how to face the Fifth Holy Grail War.
Of course, these were just thoughts. After all, it was still five years away. The more pressing matter was Jack the Ripper.
But speaking of urge...
Title: Merry: The Show Begins!
[T/N: From now on, Merlin Proto will be referred to as Merry]
‘Jack the Ripper activated her Noble Phantasm again’—that was Atalanta’s immediate thought as the fog engulfed her. Simultaneously, she considered urging Naoki to summon another fierce wind to dispel it.
But in reality, the moment after the fog swallowed her, it vanish...
Title: Assassins Without Strength or Physique Shouldn’t Dare Fight Head-On!
“Utterly absurd.”
That was the thought racing through Atalanta’s mind as she watched the ferocious whirlwind before her.
It wasn’t that she’d never seen a Magus. Semiramis, on her side, was an ancient Magus of exceptional skill. And during her lifetime, Medea, a fellow Argonaut her...
Title: The Shocking Truth for All
“Correct… it was just one person!”
Hiashi nodded, his face resolute.
Tsunade, Kakashi, and Shikaku, hearing this, all drew deep breaths.
One person… did all this? How could that be?
This is the Hyuga Clan! Konoha’s top prestigious clan!
With a population of hundreds, all ninjas with combat skills. ...
Title: The Tragic Case of the Hyuga That Shocked Konoha
“Listen, Hyuga Hiashi of this world. In our empire, the Hyuga Clan has no distinction between main and branch families. The entire Hyuga Clan is recognized by the empire as the most peaceful and friendly clan. We are united, supportive, and of one heart!”
“My father and uncle are very close. They play shogi together...
Title: The Hyuga Without Eyes
The Hyuga Clan grounds, once large enough to house hundreds, were now nearly ninety percent destroyed.
Only a few houses on the outskirts barely stood, all suffering varying degrees of damage.
In the crater’s center, a group of bloodied Hyuga, their clothes tattered, lay groaning on the ground.
Moments ago, they had avoided the...
Title: The Tragic Night of the Hyuga (Part 2)
*BOOM!*
A roar echoed.
A cloud of explosive air surged.
Satoshi turned into a streak of white light, flung a hundred meters away, crashing into a house, his fate unknown.
“Impossible! Kaiten was shattered? That’s the Hyuga Clan’s absolute defense!”
Many shouted in shock.
Their ex...
Title: The Tragic Night of the Hyuga (Part 1)
“Disaster! The Byakugan isn’t working; someone’s targeting the Hyuga. Everyone, stay alert!”
Satoshi’s expression shifted as he shouted loudly.
Several other branch family members on night watch mirrored his expression, shouting after activating their Byakugan.
In an instant, the Hyuga Clan grounds erupt...
Title: Let Me Clear It with the Wind
At night, atop the bell tower of Trifas.
Spotting the green silhouette landing beside him, Naoki sitting on the edge, greeted her. “Yo, you made it, Miss Atalanta.”
“You’re too familiar.” Atalanta said, frowning.
“You mentioned we met in another Holy Grail War before, and we were quite close?”
“Mor...
Title: Perhaps Courage
Early the next morning, in the hotel’s downstairs restaurant.
“Little Mo, I’ve got a question.”
Naoki propped both hands on the table, looking deadly serious, his tone unusually straightforward.
Mordred about to devour the burger in front of her, instantly felt like she was at a Round Table meeting and reflexively responded with...
Title: Merlin: Meeting!
“—In short, it looks like I’m being forced to marry.”
After Naoki’s proposal, Merlin promptly tossed the matter back to him.
Honestly, Naoki’s action was somewhat unexpected. Though she had imagined the possibility, in terms of probability, it was practically impossible.
After all, this was Naoki. The Naoki who remained indiffe...
Title: The Dominating King!
In a hotel in Trifas.
After setting up several Surveillance Magecraft spells at the Greater Holy Grail’s location, Naoki, Jeanne, and the others returned to Trifas and checked into a hotel.
Though they currently controlled the Greater Holy Grail, making it their base and defending it was the optimal choice, the problem was the lack of beds n...
