Naruto 700 +9

Shin starts to summon his blades, which seem to compose his entire right arm, the other clones surrounding Sakura.

Meanwhile, Sasuke is flying with Susanoo, Sarada thinking about Sasuke and what he said about Sakura, wondering what their relationship is and how Karin connects. Naruto helps her to concentrate, remembering that she wants to save Sakura.

Sasuke’s group gets to Shin’s location, Naruto seeking out Sakura’s chakra. Sakura is fighting Shin, who’s using the blades to form a shuriken that he can manipulate freely. But Sasuke bursts in with Susanoo, shattering the arm and destroying the blades.

He then starts to crush Shin, the group pulling Sakura into Susanoo. She starts to heal Sasuke’s wounds from Shin’s blades and Naruto commenting on how strong Sasuke is now.

Sasuke and the other prepare to take Shin, but he utilizes the clones. However, they betray him and stab their father with their giant shuriken. They conclude that he’s become expendable and weak, that they will become the superior genes.



We see a huge amount of Shins, the clones having made them over time in preparation for this. Everyone moves to fight them, Naruto using his Shadow Clone to make a dozen or so, Sasuke punching an especially large one with Susanoo.

Shin takes the opening, using the tiny Juubi to open a portal, sucking in some of the Shin clones.

But Sasuke tells Sarada to move, the Uchiha smashing the little monster and killing it, negating the wormhole.

More clones come in, Sakura moving to stop them, but Sarada surprising everyone as she utilizes similar strength to cause an upheaval of earth all around, like the first time we saw Sakura’s strength in Naruto, the chapter ending on this attack, imitating her mother’s technique with her fledgling Sharingan.









World Trigger 106

We resume with Ninomiya asking Chika and Osamu about Rinji, Chika saying he was her brother and Osamu noting that he was his tutor.




Ninomiya asks them if they recognize a woman in a picture he shows them. They don’t appear to, but he pushes the issue, saying that the person is wanted for illegally providing Triggers to civilians. Border suspects they went through the gate, all 4 of their signals disappearing.

The woman was part of Border and what she did was considered one of the highest crimes, sufficient to erase her memories. So he’s investigating anyone connected to her collaborators.

Osamu remembers Rinji mentioning other collaborators and recognizes Ninomiya as the one who went to Chika’s house when her brother disappeared. Yuma asks what he plans to do, the Border Agent saying they can’t arrest him, since they can’t even locate him. The higher ups are trying to keep this silent, since it would be bad press for them.

Ninomiya says that the person who distributed the Triggers was a Sniper from his team, Hatohara Mirai, but he thinks she was too simpleminded to plan this out, that there was someone else involved.

Chika responds that she thinks her brother was the most capable of arranging such a thing. Ninomiya notes that isn’t sufficient, Osamu claiming that Rinji told him a bit about the plan and showed him the Trigger, but he can’t substantiate it with anything concrete. Rinji did show him a map and it would likely match where Hatohara disappeared.

Osamu concludes that Hatohara could’ve had a deal with Rinji since they both had some common interest in mind, since Rinji didn’t seem like he was leading the whole thing.

Ninomiya leaves, Osamu asking for any information they might have, since they also seek to find out where he is in an away mission, if possible. The B Rank agent responds that Osamu doesn’t have a chance and that they should try to get Yuma into the expedition force. Osamu then suggests that Ninomiya give them the info if they are chosen, the #1 Shooter implicitly accepting.

We find out from Reiji that Ninomiya’s squad was demoted to B Rank after Hatohara’s betrayal, which explains why the captain resents her.  Officially, Hatohara was fired for violation of regulations, and only Azuma, Reiji, Ninomiya squad and Kazama squad officially know about this besides the administrators, since it getting out might make others try to do the same thing. Reiji was actually trained under Azuma along with Hatohara, so they were fellow students back in the day.

Chika is excited, since they’ve gotten some information about Reiji’s possible whereabouts.

Osamu contacts Karasuma, saying he wants to get serious about training as a Shooter, the last match making him realize how much they depend on Yuma as a squad. And even if he’s the strategist, he wants to be more useful as a member. But Karasuma replies that Osamu simply isn’t ready, no spite from his mentor in regards to training. He warns Osamu that the techniques might actually make him more vulnerable in trying to focus so much on hitting.

Osamu presses the issue, Karasuma agreeing to ask others for training. He suggests Tokieda and Arashiyama as well as Izumi as the specialists as the chapter concludes.







Boku no Hero Academia 47

We start with All Might talking with Tsukauchi, the detective from the police that was part of the investigation regarding Noumu and the villains.

They’ve determined he is brain dead, but more interestingly, he has the DNA of 4 other people mixed with his own. The sheer power he has to exert is why his brain activity is so low, but more concerning is how he got those Quirk powers, since he didn’t appear to acquire them through inheritance of the DNA itself. The theory is that it must be related to a Quirk that can grant Quirks, like All For One

Back with Deku and Gran Torino, the elderly hero comments on how Deku’s performance at the Sports Festival showed how his pupil wasn’t that good at teaching.

Deku puts on the costume, some slight aesthetic adjustments done by the support company. He’s worried he might cause problems fighting Gran Torino, but he’s pushed back by another attack.




Torino comments that All Might chose a pitiful 9th inheritor and he’s nothing compared to the older ones, implying Torino is the 7th who’s used All For One’s power, while All Might is the 8th.



Deku starts to focus, managing to dodge one of the elder’s moves, but Gran Torino manages to catch his arm and redirect the attack, commenting that he’s still stiff with his use of All For One.

Gran Torino tells him that his use of the power in the Sports Festival showed him that he’s become shackled to his admiration for All Might, which is limiting his potential.

He leaves Deku to think of the solution himself as we shift to Iida at Hosu, thinking to himself that he has to get revenge for his brother, even if he has to take vague hints to follow Stain’s trail.



Meanwhile, Stain is meeting with Shigaraki and Black Mist. The Destruction Quirk user tells him the goal is to kill All Might and the kids as well. But Stain says that Shigaraki’s a child compared to him, his motivations so simple and without any real purpose.

Shigaraki’s sensei tells Black Mist that he won’t help Shigaraki directly, wanting him to improve on his own.

Deku’s still thinking about his limit and rigidity in relation to All For One and then realizes that the opposite would help his thinking, to be more flexible.

Gran Torino is eavesdropping as the chapter concludes on him saying that All Might picked a great candidate to inherit All For One.





Seven Deadly Sins 128

The group arrives at Istar, Meliodas saying it’s been over a decade since they were last here.



Elizabeth wonders how Meliodas knows about the Druids, the Sin of Wrath saying that the Sins had a mission here. She notices the pillars, but then sees that they actually lead to another area that wasn’t initially seen.

Merlin explains that it’s a gate that connects two areas and requires the permission of the one who cast the spell. We see who it is, three members of the Druid clan.



As we learned before, the two young girls are actually the heads of the clan, while the imposing man is actually just a priest that guards them.

The two heads direct Meliodas and Elizabeth to follow them to the tower nearby, while the others wait, some still in awe of the wisdom of the Druids and their mysterious powers.

Meliodas is told by Zaneli, the one who took the pair to the tower, that he must take a trial in order to be allowed his power to be returned.

Zanali casts an incantation and Meliodas is suddenly thrown into some other world.

The chapter concludes as we see it’s Danafor in the past and Liz meets Meliodas, which shocks him, since she’s supposed to be dead.







Magi 270

Hakuryuu’s s soldiers are pressing towards the center, concerning some of Koumei’s men, but Kouha and Kougyoku’s armies encircle them, taking advantage of their superior numbers.



But the Eastern Army says that their hearts, filled with rage and hatred, can still push forward and maintain their momentum.

Koumei’s subordinate notes that since their opponents know no fear, they will fight to the last man, meaning that, even if the Western Army wins, both sides will suffer heavy losses. For that reason, Koumei must intervene.

Dantalion’s power to use transfer circles is shown, combined with Kouha’s Leraje. It seems like they’re not even hitting Hakuryuu’s armies, but it turns out they’re isolating them by creating a chasm around them.

The chapter concludes as the Eastern Army moves into the moat and is covered in oil, following by flaming arrows, engulfing them in a blaze, showing the true nature of the strategy.







Bleach 632

Bazz B recounts how they trained for 5 long years, Jugo still unable to utilize reishi. He thinks he might be one of those rare Quincy that was born without the potential, usually killed while they were young.

But instead Jugo poured himself into training with the sword and bow as real weapons, increasing his physical strength, which encouraged Bazz to stick with him.



The day came when Soldat under Juhabach announced his plans to create the Stern Ritter, seeing Soul Society as an eventual threat to them as they grew in power.

Bazz B rushes up to them and volunteers, the soldier leaving him, saying that he should practice until the actual exam date. But the Quincy fires a reishi arrow at him, challenging him to a fight here and now.



The soldier accepts, but before they can fight, Juhabach appears, emitting a strong reiatsu that nearly topples Bazz B.

Apologizing, the soldier is excused by the Quincy King who says he is looking for his right hand man. Bazz B thinks he should choose him so he can kill him, but the chapter ends as we see Juhabach choosing Jugram, calling him his other half.







One Piece 791

Luffy, having finished off Doflamingo, reverts back to his original form, Law teleporting him to the ground. People wonder what happened, Gatz noticing that the Birdcage is receding.

Everyone is still in shock as they push back the strings. Gatz is choked up at Luffy’s victory, not fully able to explain that Luffy won, getting stuck after he’s completed most of his speech. He recounts that the fight between Doflamingo and the various fighters as well as the final battle of the rogue Shichibukai versus Straw Hat Luffy is complete.

And as he finally cheers at Luffy’s conclusion of this battle, everyone cheers, Rebecca remember Luffy’s promise to defeat Doflamingo and Riku remembering Doflamingo threatening him 10 years ago.
 
The chapter concludes as we see other people remembering Kyros’ speech as a toy, the gladiator crying tears of happiness as he realizes that his dreams have been brought forth to reality by Luffys’ efforts, Rebecca still weeping over Luffy’s unconscious body.







Toriko 329

Komatsu’s group is about to go into Blue Grill, but the Corgolem piece jumps out to attack. It’s suddenly slashed into tiny pieces and picked up by giant pelicans.



Chef Yuda comments on how precise and powerful that Dice Cut was from this distance, everyone going to the gate.

Jiji says that Komatsu’s excitement is like Ichiryuu’s, who visited centuries ago. Don Slime seems to remember Ichiryuu with some resentment. Jiji also mentions that 3 humans were saved by a reconnaissance team from Blue Grill 2 years ago, nearly on the verge of death.



The first look at Blue Grill’s market is a bustling bazaar of activity, amazing cooking and cookware everywhere you look. The chefs are even involving themselves, helping local chefs with their cooking in one way or another.



The pelicans that took the sliced Corgolem wonder why the chefs are here. But the Corgolem pieces start to fuse back together, Chiyo slicing it more precisely so it can’t regenerate.



The chapter ends as Jiji thinks the chefs have already shown their skill in preparation for going into the Back Channel, the mysterious figures who tried to capture the Corgolem telling their subordinates to capture all the interesting chefs.





Fairy Tail 441



The group is using a boat to get to the continent where Alvareth lies (Alvarez was a somewhat inaccurate translation, Crunchyroll’s making more sense for once), Natsu asks why Mest couldn’t just teleport them there. The mage says it’s too far for his magic to do.

Wendy can’t even use her healing magic, since all Dragon Slayers seem to be affected by this motion sickness. Gray takes them to their rooms.

Erza asks Mest about Lumen Histoire, thinking that it doesn’t make sense unless they know the power of it as to why Makarov would risk so much for the guild’s safety.

There are other questions, like what the power of it was, if it could be used as a weapon, since Makarov was going to use it to stop the Face bombs. And the identity of Mavis and her status as a spirit but also encased in crystal as a body poses a big quandary as well.

Mest reminds them that they need to focus on getting to Arakitashia, the continent where Alvareth is. But before that, they need to prepare at Caracolle Island. They’ll meet an agent there to give them advice about infiltration.

Meanwhile, Gajeel’s group is trying to find where Laxus and his group are. Juvia wonders why they split into teams, but Pantherlily says that it’s better, since they only slightly increased their chances with a stealth mission rather than a direct confrontation.



Levy also explains that they need to find Laxus to potentially increase the odds more, complaining to Gajeel about leaving her behind. She warns everyone that the enemies at Alvareth are top tier, more dangerous than any other they’ve fought.



Natsu’s group is nearly to Caracolle, but they see Alvareth navy ships, investigating the harbor for a spy according to Natsu and Wendy’s ears.



They decide to infiltrate under the pretense of sightseeing as a fake guild based on Wendy’s old group, Cait Shelter. The guards are a bit confused, but Erza and Lucy use some sex appeal to advance their status, quickly checked in.

There are squads everywhere, Natsu warned to keep himself in check, the Fire Dragon Slayer saying he understands infiltration, but seems to only have a cursory idea of what ninjas are.

A child is crying to a guard, asking him about his father. The soldier is about to strike the child, but Natsu, Lucy, Gray and Erza take out the soldiers with a punch each, the chapter ending as Mest says they’re in a bad place now, having blown their cover.
