An hour later, Arthur was seen walking side by side with Alex. There was a comfortable silence settling between them until Alex finally asked, "Think Itachi and Kisame are still gonna come?" Arthur had almost forgotten about that part of the story. After Orochimaru's attempt at invading the Leaf Village, the Akatsuki organization discovered the news. Pain instructed one of their members to check the village's status as well as how Naruto was doing. And the member who chose to accept the task was…-

The next few days passed quicker than expected. Arthur couldn't afford to appear rusty or underestimate his opponents, even the ones he deemed weaker. So he had diligently practiced for the upcoming tournament, training alone to perfect his basic skills. This also involved him refining his other techniques. He focused heavily on perfecting the chakra flow required to execute stronger ninjutsu and escape illusions. He also spent hours practicing hand signs and meditating, learning the intricate…-

The Leaf Village buzzed with citizens delving through the streets. Today was the day of the Chūnin Exams finals. All roads led toward the towering structure at the heart of the village known simply as the Stadium. Outside, it was the unofficial pre-match betting floor. Vendors offered trinkets and snacks as their voices yelled over the crowd's enthusiastic chatter. Groups huddled around stands and poured money like it was nothing. "Ten thousand ryō on that Alex kid!" a portly man bellowed with…-

"So, tell me about you guys." "Let me go first," William said, sheepishly raising his hand. "I chose to be an Uzumaki." He explained that because he was the first to arrive at Elysium, he got to choose before anyone else. The decision was hard on him at first, but he inevitably went with Uzumaki because of how much he loved the Naruto story. 'Seemingly endless supply of chakra, plus a free sealing technique?' Arthur thought. 'Good choice, but why does it feel like he's hiding…-

"Has anyone else felt anything off here?" Arthur began. Jasper raised an eyebrow, asking what he meant by "off." "The pain threshold… Don't any of you think it's a tad high?" A murmur of agreement spread. Jada answered, "Yeah, it is a little weird. When I slammed my thumb in the door earlier, it definitely hurt, more than I thought it would actually. But it was only a little pain before it went away." "Agreed," William said. "But I don't think I felt anything as hard as that." Alice chimed…-

As things came to a close, Arthur got up from the couch, ready to leave. "I'll show you to your room at the crib," Alex said to him. Yet Arthur had no desire to become roommates with anyone here. "It's fine, mate. I'm actually comfortable sleeping outside." The others blinked in surprise. Jada, having remembered that the Clan-less character started with no money, quickly pulled out her purse and gave Arthur a few hundred ryō. "Take it," she pleaded, "and at least get yourself something to eat…-

The evening sun eventually concluded their training session. With her stomach growling, Jada proposed a festive dinner at Ichiraku Ramen, the popular ramen restaurant that the main character often visited. "Actually," Arthur interjected, graciously turning down the offer, "ramen isn't really my thing. And besides, there's something else I need to do before it gets dark. Maybe another time?" She was a tad disappointed. But after everything he'd already helped her with, she wasn't going to pressure…-

Arthur remained calm. Jasper, the prideful rich man, wanted to fight him? This was a sudden request that piqued his interest. With a straight face, Arthur asked, "And why exactly do you want to fight me?" "Let's just say, I have a feeling you can help me with something." That tone was low and dangerous. There was a moment of silence as the lights near them flickered. "Alright," Arthur finally said, meeting his intense gaze. "How about we go somewhere more private?" "I couldn't agree…-

Iruka's announcement was eagerly awaited. But then the teacher's eyes moved, focusing on Arthur in the rear corner. Iruka started to approach Arthur as Arthur could feel the gazes of the other students. Everybody in the class had their heads turned in his direction. "Arthur," Iruka said with a kind grin. "Glad you could make it back safely. We heard you went missing. Quite a scare you gave me." Arthur gave a curt nod with an unreadable face. He played along because he didn't want to raise…-

The group swapped stories about their day, but the theme remained consistent—disappointment. It turned out they had been assigned a random Jōnin none of them recognized. Jada sighed. "Our sensei was this nondescript guy who kept trying to teach us the values of being a ninja. William and I basically sat back and watched Marge handle it." Margaret puffed out her chest. "Yeah, well, I kept telling you guys I could mop the floor with anyone." She had revealed one of her hidden techniques:…-
