I'm in Naruto, but the system says I'm in One Piece.

However, this has nothing to do with Hoshino Yu.

If the sky falls, the adults will hold it up; it's none of his business to meddle.

Moreover, even with full Observation Haki, the range is only a dozen kilometers, so one can't know what's happening outside and simply doesn't bother to pay attention.

Silent all night.

Because the task wasn't difficult, Hoshino Yu didn't sleep until the afternoon.

After waking up early and washing up, he went out and headed towards the location of "Shueisha".

Minato hadn't gotten up yet, presumably like himself, he was repairing his inner damage in his sleep after his first murder, so he didn't bother him.

As for why I went to Shueisha, it's because my monthly royalties arrived again.

Upon arriving at the bookstore, after being received by the shop owner and receiving his large sum of royalties in the office, Hoshino Yu planned to leave.

Just then, the slicked-back-haired, bespectacled owner of Shueisha called out to Hoshino Yu.

Hoshino Yu turned his head and looked over, asking:

"Boss, is there anything else?"

The Shueisha boss said:

"Lord Hoshino Yu, please wait a moment. I'd like to ask when the next chapter of One Piece will be finished?"

Upon hearing this, Hoshino Yu pondered for a moment and said:

"That depends on whether I have time."

There was no way around it; after becoming a ninja, he was constantly on the path to becoming stronger. He was either doing missions, practicing ninjutsu, or practicing swordsmanship at Hatake Sakumo's house.

Or perhaps, he'd be doing research with his mentor Orochimaru, giving him ideas and suggestions; he wouldn't have time to write the One Piece novel.

Most importantly, the original intention of writing the novel was to introduce the Water Pillar, the Luffy of the ninja world.

Now that everyone has been brought out and the system tasks have been accelerated, I naturally have no mind to write that novel anymore.

The chapters I've been providing lately are mostly from my previous drafts. If I want to write another chapter and continue the series without interruption, I'll have to make time for it.

Of course, if you really want to write, as long as your thoughts can keep up, you can write at the speed of light after becoming an element, so you won't have to worry about not finishing.

I just don't really want to write.

If you want to make money and make your work a hit in the ninja world, you'd have to write something like "Jin Ping Mei".

After discussing with the shop owner for a while and confirming the manuscript for the next chapter of "One Piece" to be submitted next month, Hoshino Yu received his share of the novel's profits and left immediately.

He intended to go to Hatake Sakumo's house to continue his swordsmanship training with him.

To be honest, Hoshino Yu previously thought that swordsmanship was nothing more than thrusting, slashing, pointing, parrying, and picking. As long as the speed was fast enough, even the most basic techniques could cause great damage to the enemy.

After learning swordsmanship from Hatake Sakumo, he discovered that this was indeed the case.

All those techniques are utterly insignificant compared to the speed granted by his Rumble-Rumble Fruit.

At this speed, one sword strike at a time, just like when I encountered Kakuzu before, it's a combination of information killing and face-to-face killing, the opponent has no time to react at all.

However, he later changed his mind.

The reason why some levels are currently exceeding the standard is because even more excessive levels have not yet appeared.

For example, Six Paths Naruto, Rinnegan Sasuke, and the Otsutsuki clan.

It's important to know that in the original work, during the Fourth Shinobi World War, Madara Uchiha's "Sage Art: Storm Release: Light Fang" was at the true speed of light, yet Naruto was able to dodge it directly.

Furthermore, the Flying Thunder God Technique, which had previously instilled fear in several major powers, was essentially useless against a Six Paths level opponent.

Once the other party reacts, it's easy to resolve.

Therefore, Hoshino Yu sought out Hatake Sakumo to practice swordsmanship mainly to prepare for future powerful enemies.

He also remembered that when Boruto and Sasuke traveled back in time and encountered Jiraiya and Naruto, they also met those Otsutsuki.

Although Jiraiya and the others' memories were erased later, the premature appearance of the Otsutsuki is a real existence.

Who knows, right now, there might be a giant Otsutsuki on the moon watching them.

After buying some desserts at Ganligan, Hoshino Yu headed towards the direction of Hatake Sakumo's house.

After turning a few corners on the street, they arrived at a less populated area to the north, where they found a large, single-story house in a courtyard. Hoshino Yu walked straight up to it.

Sakumo Hatake got up early and was chopping firewood in the yard.

Without the short sword on his back, the ninja vest, and the ninja headband, Hatake Sakumo, at first glance, seemed to lack the unique murderous aura of a ninja, and one might think he was an easy target.

At this time, Sakumo Hatake was only in his early twenties, quite young. He had gotten married a year earlier and didn't have Kakashi yet.

As for why Kakashi's mother wasn't seen later, Hoshino Yu speculated that she might have died in childbirth or something else had happened.

However, now that the two are getting along well, he doesn't mind intervening and helping them achieve a happy reunion.

Hoshino Yu stepped forward with the desserts, smiling as she said:

"Yo, Sakumo-senpai, up so early to chop wood?"

Upon hearing this, Hatake Sakumo stood up and turned to look.

Upon seeing that it was Hoshino Yu, he couldn't help but smile:

"Hey kid, weren't you off on a mission? When did you get back?"

"I just got back yesterday, and I came to visit you right away."

"Heh, you little rascal, you're here, and you even brought breakfast," Hatake Sakumo said with a laugh. "Is there something you need from me?"

"Can't I come over if there's nothing wrong? Sakumo-senpai, you can't look at me like that." Hoshino Yu said, somewhat speechless.

Although the reason I sought him out each time before was indeed for ninja experience and swordsmanship.

However, after a while, Hoshino Yu found that the other person was actually a very easy person to get along with.

Don't let his serious appearance fool you into thinking he's unapproachable.

In reality, Sakumo Hatake was not a very serious person. Except when he was a ninja, he was always smiling.

Even the extremely famous "Thousand-Year Kill" was created by him.

"Just say it, kid. You're just like your Orochimaru teacher, never coming here without a reason. What brings you here this time?"

"No, I just wanted to come and see you."

With that, Hoshino Yu opened the door and went inside.

It's around eight o'clock in the morning, and Sakumo Hatake's wife should be at the market buying ingredients for lunch.

Seeing this, Hatake Sakumo shook his head helplessly, put down the axe in his hand, dusted off the wood chips on his body, and went straight inside.

Although his house looked big, the things inside were very simple.

After placing the dessert on the table, Hoshino Yu sat down cross-legged by herself.

Sakumo Hatake went to the kitchen to boil a kettle of water, then brought it back and made a cup of hot tea for each of them.

"Please," said Sakumo Hatake.

"Thank you, Sakumo-senpai," Hoshino Yu said with a smile after taking a sip of hot tea. "Does senpai know why I've come here today?"

"See, I knew you needed to talk to me."
