Naruto: I'm really not an evil scientist!

They had already received the good news of the victory from the front lines, and also learned that the Frontier fleet and the Vajra clan had cleared up their misunderstandings and would live together on this planet in the future.

Many people look to the future with a mixture of trepidation and anticipation.

When the main island fleet broke free of the hyperspace route and arrived near the Vajra homeworld, everyone was awestruck by the enormous lily blooming in the universe.

This cosmic spectacle, formed by GN particles and Fold waves, has become the most beautiful sight in this galaxy.

Many Vajra people regard this lily as their new home, flying and playing around it, creating a harmonious scene.

The advance fleet of the Frontier contingent also dispatched some research vessels to scan and study the giant lily from the outside.

Such a spectacular cosmic phenomenon is something many people have never seen in their lifetime.

The research vessels of this fleet slowly approached the lily, carefully collecting data from the outside. This flower has become a permanent cosmic wonder. They do not yet know how it was formed, but when the flower was formed, the fleet's equipment detected that GN particles and FOLD waves intertwined and generated enormous energy. If the mystery can be solved, human civilization can take another step forward.

The frigate soldiers who had stayed on the main island to protect it learned about the origin of the lily from their colleagues who had participated in the battle.

They beat their chests in regret, lamenting that they hadn't witnessed the miracle firsthand.

"What a pity! I actually missed such an epic battle! If I could have seen how this flower was formed, even if I died, my service would have been worthwhile!" This sentence became the most widely circulated saying among the frontline fleets at the time, expressing people's complex feelings about the war and their awe for the lily, which symbolized peace and hope.

The warships of the Frontier fleet slowly sailed toward Vajra's homeworld.

The war that began with conspiracy has finally come to an end, and humans and the Vajra race can finally join hands to create a better future.

They will establish a new home on Vajra's home planet, living and developing together with the Vajra people.

With the arrival of the subsequent immigrant fleet, the main island of the Frontier fleet slowly landed on a vast plain near the ocean on the Vajra homeworld, ready to begin the subsequent immigrant work and planetary construction.

Meanwhile, the members of SMS—Catherine, Hiruko, Sheryl, Orchid, and Brera, among others—gathered at the Queen's Restaurant. They had booked the entire restaurant for a grand victory banquet to celebrate the war's victory and the establishment of friendship between humans and the Vajra race.

The Niangniang Restaurant was brightly lit and filled with laughter and cheerful conversation.

The table was laden with a sumptuous feast and fine wine. The members of SMS raised their glasses in celebration, toasting each other and sharing the joy of victory.

Sherry and Orchid also performed wonderful songs for everyone at the celebration banquet.

At the victory celebration, Art recalled the previous battles and could feel the affection in the orchid's song for him.

While rambling on about incoherent things, he calmly took Lan Hua's hand.

Orchid's cheeks flushed, and her heart raced as if a fawn was pounding wildly in her chest.

However, Art's good fortune didn't last long, and his actions were soon discovered by Brera.

Without hesitation, Brera rushed forward and slapped Art's hand away.

A bright red handprint was left on the back of Art's hand.

Art's face was filled with anger and embarrassment. He pointed at Brera and shouted, "What are you doing?!" Brera crossed her arms and glared back at Art without backing down, coldly saying, "Stay away from my sister!"

Seeing this, Ozma was about to roll up her sleeves and teach Alt a lesson, but Catherine grabbed her arm.

Catherine looked at Ozma with a helpless expression, her eyes filled with concern and worry. "You're such a grown-up, yet you act like a child. How can I not worry about you?"

Catherine realized she had misspoke after she finished speaking; she and Ozma had broken up long ago, and she was no longer his girlfriend.

Thinking of this, Catherine's cheeks couldn't help but blush.

Seeing Catherine's expression, even a roughneck like Ozma could understand her feelings. He grabbed her hand and shouted, "Catherine, let's get back together! This time, I promise I won't let you down again!"

Ozma's sudden confession caught Catherine off guard. Her eyes were filled with surprise and panic, and she didn't know how to respond to Ozma's confession.

Chapter 496

Her cheeks flushed even more, and she dared not meet Ozma's burning gaze, as if they were about to bleed.

Her heart was pounding like a drum, as if it were about to leap out of her chest.

Ozma held her hand tightly, warm and strong, giving her a familiar sense of security.

Michelle, who was teasing Glenn, saw this and immediately whistled, a sly smile on her face, and shouted, "Together! Together!" The others joined in the cheering, and the atmosphere instantly became relaxed and cheerful.

Captain Jeffrey watched this scene and couldn't help but sigh, "They're so young." Monica, standing next to him, looked at him with longing.

Seeing everyone laughing, Hiruko couldn't help but smile happily as well.

His laughter was clear and hearty, seemingly able to infect everyone around him, filling the entire Niangniang Restaurant with a joyful atmosphere.

This was the first time everyone had seen Hiruko laugh so heartily. In their previous interactions, Hiruko had always maintained a calm and composed demeanor, as if nothing could move him.

At this moment, however, he was enjoying happiness and joy from the bottom of his heart, just like an ordinary person.

When Catherine saw Hiruko's smile, she suddenly remembered something important.

She gently pulled her hand away from Ozma's and walked up to Hiruko, her face still flushed from Ozma's sudden confession.

“Mr. Hiruko,” Catherine said, “Actually, the Grand Commander also wanted to attend today’s victory celebration, but he was simply too busy with planetary immigration, communication with the unified government, and drafting laws related to coexisting with the Vajra people.”

"The Grand Commander asked me to convey his greetings to you, and also to ask you about your future plans," Catherine's voice was gentle and sincere. She relayed the Grand Commander's words to Hiruko, "The Grand Commander would like to invite you to join the Frontier Fleet as a special advisor. Your authority will remain unchanged."

Those around them also heard Catherine's words and realized that Hiruko was not a member of the Frontier fleet, but came from Earth.

Hiruko stayed with the Frontier fleet because the Grand Commander had previously hired him to investigate matters concerning the Vajra clan, and now that matter had been resolved satisfactorily.

The SMS members looked at each other, all realizing one thing: Would Hiruko leave the Frontier fleet?

"Mr. Hiruko, will you leave?" Art couldn't help but ask, his tone filled with reluctance.

Although the others remained silent, they shared the same thought as Art: they all hoped that Hiruko would stay and become part of the Frontier fleet.

Although they had spent less than half a year together, they had unknowingly come to regard Hiruko as a partner to whom they could entrust their lives.

Sherry felt a pang in her heart at the thought of Hiruko returning to Earth, and then softly asked, "Hiruko, can't you stay?"

Hiruko remained silent. Sheryl ran her hand through her hair, her fingers twirling a strand. "Hmph, it's just Earth. Anyway, the Galaxy Fleet is gone, and I'm homeless. I'll just go back to Earth with you." She felt a pang of loneliness at the thought of saying goodbye to her friends from the Frontier Fleet.

Seeing the expectant looks in everyone's eyes, Hiruko knew that the situation was now settled, and it was time to reveal the mystery of her identity.

He sighed softly, turned his gaze to the two boys, Art and Brera, and said slowly, "Art, Brera, you two have been keeping something to ask me all along, haven't you?"

Art and Brera's expressions changed slightly. They exchanged a glance, both understanding what Hirukhu meant.

In the previous decisive battle, they witnessed the incredible power that erupted from the 00Q Gundam, a power that far exceeded the performance limits of the 00Q Gundam itself, which filled them with doubt and curiosity.

Upon hearing Hiruko's words, both Art and Brera fell silent.

Indeed, they had many questions they wanted to ask Biljukhu.

In the final battle against Galaxy, the 00Q Gundam unleashed an endless stream of GN particles at the last moment, filling the entire galaxy.

Everyone else thought it was the performance of the 00Q Gundam, but as the 00Q Gundam's close bodyguards, Alto and Brera knew perfectly well that the 00Q Gundam's pseudo-solar reactor was overloaded and about to stop operating.

That massive amount of particle energy did not originate from the 00Q Gundam's body, but rather erupted directly from the cockpit.

This was also the doubt and confusion that both of them kept hidden in their hearts after the battle; they couldn't understand how Hiruko had managed to do it.

Hiruko, seeing the two boys' hesitant expressions, knew what they were thinking.

"Everyone, watch carefully," Hiruko said calmly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Hiruko stretched out his palm and created a portal that shimmered with blue light in the center of the restaurant.

The appearance of the portal left everyone present dumbfounded, their faces filled with disbelief, unable to comprehend what Hiruko had done.

“Actually, I am not from this universe,” Hiruko said slowly. “I come from Earth in another universe.” Hiruko’s voice was calm and firm, and his words were like a bomb, stirring up a storm in everyone’s hearts.

Then, Hiruko began to explain to everyone his purpose in coming to this universe.

The atmosphere inside the Niangniang Restaurant became heavy.

Everyone listened attentively to Hiruko's story, their eyes filled with curiosity, shock, and admiration.

Inside the Niangniang Restaurant, all was quiet.

After hearing Hiruko's account, everyone fell into a long silence.

They sat in their respective seats, no one spoke, and no one touched their chopsticks. The once bustling restaurant was now as quiet as a tomb; you could hear a pin drop.

Since meeting Hiruko, they have heard too many shocking secrets from him, whether it is the truth about the Vajra clan or the conspiracy about Galaxy, which have overturned their understanding time and time again.

But all the previous secrets combined are not as shocking as the true identity revealed by Beiruhu at this moment.

Close-up: Hiruko looked at the shocked expressions on everyone's faces, his heart filled with helplessness and apology.

He knew that his identity and background were a huge shock to them.

But he had no choice; he had to tell them everything.

Just as everyone was stunned by Hiruko's identity, Sherry suddenly stood up, rushed to Hiruko, hugged him tightly, and burst into tears.

"Liar! Big liar!" Sherry cried, pounding Hiruko's chest. "You promised to protect me! Why...why did you lie to me?"

Sheryl's cries were heart-wrenching, her voice filled with grievance, anger, and deep fear.

Sherry's tears fell like pearls from a broken string, one by one, onto Hiruko's chest.

Her body trembled slightly, and she held tightly to Hiruko's waist, as if afraid that he would suddenly disappear.

She was afraid that Hiruko would leave her, afraid that he would return to that distant universe and they would never see each other again.

Hiruko gently stroked Sheryl's hair, his eyes filled with tenderness and pity.

He lowered his head and whispered in Sheryl's ear, "I'm sorry, Sheryl, I... I didn't mean to lie to you..." Hiruko felt Sheryl's sadness and his heart was filled with helplessness and heartache.

He didn't know whether he should continue talking. If he said he could come back anytime, he wondered if Sheryl would really bite him to death.

After much internal struggle, Hiruko decided to tell Sherry the truth.

“Sheryl, don’t worry, I… I can freely travel between different universes and can come back at any time,” Hiruko said.

When Sherry heard Hiruko's words, she first showed a surprised expression, but soon her face darkened.

"You are... a research ninja?" Sherry wiped away her tears, her voice still trembling with sobs, but the light in her eyes suddenly changed.

Hiruko paused for a moment, then nodded with a wry smile.

A research ninja—that was his identity in another universe—moving between various powers, using scientific research as a cover to carry out secret missions, and possessing technology and ninjutsu far beyond this era.

His ability to create things out of thin air and his profound understanding of GN particles and Fold waves are all due to the unique system of the Research Ninja that integrates quantum physics and ninja way.

“No wonder…” Art murmured to himself, recalling Hiruko’s incredible maneuvers on the battlefield—he could always predict the enemy’s movements with the most accurate data at the most critical moments, as if everything was within his calculations.

It turns out that it wasn't just driving skills, but also the all-seeing eyes of a scientific ninja.

Brera fell silent as well. He recalled that Hiruko had casually modified the power output parameters of his machine, and with just a few lines of code, he had improved its mobility by a whole level.
