Naruto: Let the glory of the giants spread throughout the ninja world!

Ryukura Akira was very excited at this moment; he finally understood the question that had puzzled him for so long.

He made up for the first knife wound in Naruto through his own efforts.

Mingming finally gained the power to change the world, and he protected the family he had met after his transmigration.

These two things combined should bring Ryukura Akira even greater joy, a dreamlike joy.

But why?

Ryukura Akira stared at Zabuza, whose sword had slashed his wrist, filled with great confusion.

Zabuza gritted his teeth, staring at the giant that Ryukura Akira had transformed into. "Haku, let's go!"

Zabuza clearly knew the terrifying strength of the giant before him.

He was no match for this guy after fighting Kakashi, let alone now with his severely injured body.

"This guy is treating us like prey and is spreading us out to hunt us. You'd better get out of here."

Bai doesn't understand why hope is always followed by despair, both in the past and now.

Bai flung several thousand needles at the giant, shouting, "No! I won't leave!"

"You idiot! You have much more potential than me. You can avenge me and that kid in the future, which is better than us all being wiped out now."

"Zabuza-san is a fool. I've already lost a family member. I'm not going to give up on Zabuza-san."

Bai's tears froze into ice crystals, dripped onto the ground, and shattered into glistening specks. "All I've ever wanted is a peaceful life."

"Even seeing Xiaoming die, I still wanted to run away with Zabuza, because I didn't want to lose my only family member."

"I can't run away just for revenge. I would die even for a second without you."

"So, please let me join Zabuza in avenging Xiaoming, or let me go with Zabuza to see Xiaoming!"

"Hehe, Bai, don't you dare hold me back."

Listening to the conversation between his two lovable rascals, Ryukura Akira was frantically defending himself while complaining incessantly.

"That ketchup puddle isn't me at all! Please don't hit me! Give me a minute to turn back!"

Akira Ryukura wanted to turn back into himself, but the system told him that it would take at least one second to reshape him back into a human for the first time.

Given the current situation, I'd probably be chopped into mincemeat in a second.

Ryukura Akira glanced at the spot where he had first transformed.

"Looks like this is the only way," Ryukura Akira quickly left the battlefield and ran straight towards the sea.

Zabuza was stunned. "Why did this guy suddenly run away?"

Haku tugged at Zabuza's sleeve, his eyes red-rimmed, and said to Zabuza...

"Mr. Zabuza, stop chasing him. Let's bury Xiaoming properly together."

Zabuza nodded silently and walked towards the pile of kado.

At the same time, Ryukura Akira, who had just escaped their sight, quickly used the other two skills of his system.

[Hive Consciousness]: The giant you transform into will be stored in the system. You can choose to transform yourself or deploy a transformation. The number that can exist at the same time is determined by the host's mental strength. Each transformation requires first transforming into human form.

[Coordinate Power]: Cannot be stored once every thirty-six hours. You can teleport yourself or the giant's body to a coordinate where you have transformed. You cannot carry any items other than yourself and cannot travel through time and space.

The insect hive consciousness ensured that Ryukura Ming could command an army single-handedly in the later period.

The power of the coordinates prevents Ryukura Akira from being left helpless and waiting for death when something irreversible happens.

Now, Ryukura Akira is about to use the [Coordinate Power] to project his body into the camp where he first transformed.

A wave of dizziness washed over me.

As Zabuza and Haku slowly walked towards "Gato", a naked man suddenly jumped up from the ruins behind Gato.

Bai was startled, but her eyes welled up with tears when she saw the person's face.

"Xiao Ming!"

Haku was about to rush over and hug Ryukura Akira tightly, but Zabuza stopped him.

"Kid, something's not right. How did you survive? Or are you even Ryukura Akira?"

Akira Ryukura gave a wry smile. "Zabuza-san, do I need to retell the story of how you picked me up in the snow?"

Zabuza relaxed slightly, then let Haku run towards Ryukura Akira.

"Xiaoming, do you know how scared I was? I thought you were dead, that you were killed by that giant."

"I thought that pool of blood was yours. Zabuza-san just said we were family. I thought it would be like eight years ago."

Ryukura Akira gently hugged Shiro and patted his back. "It's alright, Shiro. I'm perfectly fine."

Zabuza walked up to the two of them and said, "It's good that you're alive."

Just then, Ryukura Akira felt a chill running down his groin. He quickly pulled away from Shiro's embrace and realized that he wasn't wearing any clothes!

This system is a total rip-off! It claims to be a pure physical body, but it doesn't even leave you with a single piece of clothing!

Haku smiled slightly at the slightly blushing Ryukura Akira, while Zabuza simply stripped a piece of clothing from the unfortunate soul who had been killed by a rock and tossed it to Ryukura Akira.

After quickly getting dressed, the three of them began searching the camp for supplies while chatting.

Listening to Haku excitedly recount the battle on the bridge, and Zabuza's occasional scolding, Ryukura Akira felt that all the risks were worthwhile.

As dusk approached, the three men, having packed their belongings, ignored the corpses in the camp and started a fire to cook.

During the meal, Zabuza started asking Ryukura Akira, "Kid, what exactly happened at the camp?"

Ryukura Akira paused for a moment, then said to Zabuza,

"Zabuza-san, Haku, do you believe in predicting the future?"

Zabuza frowned. "What does this have to do with the camp?"

Ryukura Akira spoke in a deep voice, reciting the words he had prepared: "I'm sorry, Zabuza-san, some of what I said to you back then was actually false."

"Actually, I've never seen your wanted poster and don't know anything about your deeds. It's just that some images suddenly flashed through my mind, so I had no choice but to try this as a last resort."

"What scene?" Bai, who was in charge of grilling the fish, poked his head in and joined the conversation.

"I saw the scene of your battle, I saw you fighting with Kakashi Hatake and the others, and I saw Haku disguised as an Anbu to rescue you."

"Wait," Zabuza interrupted Ryukura Akira, "You mean you saw my first battle with Kakashi Hatake five years ago? Is this the future you were talking about?"

"Yes, I was skeptical of the images in my mind back then, but over the years I've spent with you, I've seen much more."

"I saw Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha of Konoha defeat Haku, I saw Haku block the Lightning Blade for Zabuza, and I saw Zabuza's tears."

Haku blinked twice in surprise and said, "So, Xiaoming, that's why you told me that Zabuza-san is a very gentle person?"

"Yes, but that's not the most important thing," Ryukura Akira swallowed hard, looking at the two of them.

"The scariest thing is that in this future, I died in vain, and I don't even exist in this future."
