"What is this thing?"
At this moment, Zhao Kongcheng was terrified in his heart as he looked at the chat group that had silently appeared in his mind.
He had wanted to immediately report it to his captain, but recalling the warning, he temporarily restrained his thoughts.
"When something new appears, someone always has to be the first to try it."
After thinking it over, Zhao Kongcheng decided to verify the true nature of this chat group.
He sent a greeting inside the chat group.
On the other side, Hell Fubuki frowned to herself. Her mental power had scanned the surrounding area without detecting anything unusual—it was truly strange.
"A chat group? What is this thing?"
She was puzzled and somewhat afraid that this might be some kind of monster's scheme. She even thought that if her sister were here, perhaps she could figure something out.
But she quickly shook her head. She didn't want to go to her sister.
She continued to monitor the group's activity while planning her next move.
...
Above the sky, Roy transformed into a streak of light, hurrying toward the Cloud Hidden Village.
"The world of *Slay the Gods* has plenty of good things, but it's also too deep for me to tread lightly."
For now, Roy did not dare to actually go to that world. With his current strength, at most at the Demigod level, he truly lacked a sense of security.
As for the present, Roy was preparing to invest in Zhao Kongcheng in advance. Perhaps through him, he could build a good relationship with someone in the future and reap some benefits.
"I need to hurry up and become a Six Paths."
Roy had made up his mind. Once he achieved the complete Six Paths, he might barely reach the level of a weaker Chief God, which would greatly enhance his ability to protect himself.
As for the world of *One Punch Man*, he could find an opportunity to meet that bald man. Given his lawful neutral stance, he probably wouldn't get punched by that guy.
With these thoughts, Roy soon arrived at the border of the Cloud Hidden Village.
He activated his Observation Haki to its maximum range and indeed found a massive chakra signature at the edge of the village.
"Heh, for such a powerful jinchuriki, they don't even let him near the village center and make him live on the outskirts."
Under Roy's observation, Killer B was still in the center of the village.
It seemed that being a perfect jinchuriki was the reason. Of course, it was probably also because he was the Raikage's brother.
"Then I'll capture the Two-Tails first and absorb half its chakra. Given the power of the Divine Tree remnant, that's all I can do."
What Roy held was merely a remnant of the Divine Tree, not the true, complete Divine Tree. It couldn't devour a real Tailed Beast; at best, it could only absorb chakra.
...
In the mountain range on the edge of the Cloud Hidden Village, the Two-Tails jinchuriki, Yugito, stared provocatively at Roy in the distance.
"Hmph, I finally lured you, this sneaky bastard, here. I'll settle things with you right here."
Yugito's voice was brimming with confidence. As the jinchuriki of the Two-Tails, Matatabi, her synchronization with the Tailed Beast was extraordinary, and the power of her Tailed Beast transformation allowed her to stand above most opponents.
Although her opponent, this man named Roy, exuded an indescribably strange aura, she believed that once she released the Two-Tails' power, everything would be resolved.
Roy, however, remained calm and composed, a faint smile playing on his lips.
"Actually, I just want to take some chakra from the Two-Tails. Since you can replenish it anyway, wouldn't that be a win-win for everyone?"
He spread his hands, speaking casually.
But Yugito clearly had no patience for such talk. With a roar, she instantly completed her Tailed Beast transformation, the massive figure of the Two-Tails appearing particularly ferocious in the evening sunlight.
The Two-Tails' eyes burned like flames, and the scorching chakra surrounding it inspired fear in all who saw it.
"Go to hell!" Yugito roared, tilting her head back slightly as a Tailed Beast Ball, condensed with terrifying energy, quickly took shape.
She knew that in the entire ninja world, only a handful could directly withstand such an attack. Within the Cloud Hidden Village, aside from the Fourth Raikage, A, with his powerful lightning-release physique, and the perfect jinchuriki Killer B, no one else could block it.
But just as the Tailed Beast Ball was about to be fired, something unexpected happened. Yugito suddenly felt an unprecedented, strange power enveloping her entire body. Time seemed to slow down in that instant, and even the air itself froze.
The Tailed Beast Ball, condensed with all her power, solidified in front of her mouth as if trapped by time itself.
"This is… the power of time?!" Yugito was horrified. She had never seen such a bizarre ability.
When she finally managed to snap out of her shock, she saw that Roy's eyes had turned a deep red, with patterns resembling an ancient clock spinning within them at an eerie speed.
"Someone from the Uchiha clan? How can this be…" Yugito was filled with disbelief.
But at that moment, she was completely unable to move. The power of time seemed to have frozen this space.
Then, a beam of light struck the Tailed Beast Ball.
With a deafening explosion, flames erupted into the sky.
The Two-Tails roared in agony as its massive body burst forth.
"Who are you? Why do you possess such strange power?"
Yugito endured the excruciating pain, asking in a mix of shock and fury.
"Konoha needs the power of the Tailed Beasts."
He replied calmly. For now, he didn't want to be known as someone from another world, so he would let everyone suspect Konoha first.
"Konoha…" Upon hearing this, Yugito's expression hardened, and a determined glint flashed in her eyes.
Without another word, her massive Two-Tails body erupted with astonishing power, lunging directly at Roy.
But something strange happened.
Time around Yugito seemed to slow down again under the influence of a mysterious force. Her movements became incredibly sluggish.
To her horror, she realized her speed had been reduced countless times. She could only watch helplessly as Roy appeared in front of her like a phantom, kicking her away with such force that she crashed heavily into a rock formation in the distance.
"Such a bizarre power?" Yugito lay on the ground, gasping in pain, her heart filled with fear and confusion.
Meanwhile, in a completely different world, Zhao Kongcheng sat with his eyes closed, sensing the mysterious power called "Haki" within his mind.
He murmured to himself, his voice filled with awe and curiosity: "Is this… a power from another world?"
A light never before seen shone in his eyes, as if he had discovered a new continent.
He clenched his fists tightly, feeling the power surging from deep within him, and a sense of indescribable ecstasy welled up inside.
If this was real, then he would possess a power similar to a Restricted Zone. Though he didn't know how strong it would be, even a low-level Restricted Zone power would be enough for him.
He wanted to become stronger, to fight alongside his teammates.
