In the war-torn world of Naruto, power often lies not in brute strength—but in shadows. After the death of the Hokage, chaos brews within Konoha. A new generation of shinobi rises in the smoke of betrayal, diplomacy, and war. Among them is a boy with no bloodline, no famed surname—only a sharp mind and a forbidden technique that even the Anbu fear to speak of. Trained in the clandestine “Shadow Style,” a lost school of ninjutsu that blends deception, manipulation, and psychological warfare, he isn’t the strongest—but he's always ten steps ahead. As hidden factions maneuver behind the scenes and the Five Great Nations teeter on the edge of full-scale conflict, he must carve out a place for himself—not with strength, but with strategy. Can he survive the politics of power, or will the shadow that protects him also consume him? Perfect for fans of dark intrigue, tactical combat, and morally grey protagonists.

Full cover can be found in the first chapter of the AO3 version of this fic.

"'I'm not an ambitious person,' is something Reiner often says. He just wants to hang around with the Straw Hat crew, traveling the world while collecting the souls of the dead. From Kuro... Arlong, then to 'Old Sand' (Crocodile)... the Golden Lion (Shiki)... As he gathered more and more, the 'style' started getting progressively weirder. A demon with goat horns and a snake tail? Okay, maybe I can understand that. But a 'Chainsaw Demon'? What the heck is that? And where did you even pull this 'Sukuna' from?! When the Summit War kicks off, Sengoku and the Three Admirals stare at Reiner, who is sitting calmly upon the execution platform. 'What? You're saying these incredibly strong individuals are undead beings controlled by him?!' 'How is that possible! Isn't he just some handyman doing chores for the Straw Hat crew?' 'Seriously, man... You call *this* logistics?!' Hearing this, Reiner gets annoyed: 'If doing literally every kind of job isn't called logistics, then what is!?' ------ (Story follows the Straw Hats' journey + original plot elements. The main character is neither overly righteous/naive nor does he turn evil/dark.)

Amelia Lockhart has one mission: make the top idol Ethan Quinn fall in love with her, then break his heart, so that Ethan Quinn can successfully pass his tribulation and return to his position as a High God. There's just one problem: as the most hated woman on the internet, Amelia is the last person anyone would pair with the nation's golden boy. But when she lands a spot on a dating show alongside Ethan, she sees her chance. She does all the heavy lifting and is dependable enough to make him see her differently. As a result, Ethan starts pretending to be weak. The fans are confused. Their untouchable idol is... blushing? Getting clingy? Calling her "jiejie" in that voice? "Sis, I surrender." "Sis, you can only spoil me like this." Amelia is losing control of the plan. She was supposed to seduce him and walk away. So why is he the one coaxing her to stay, and why is it getting harder to say no?

In her past life, Su Yaoguang bought Xiao Yanci, supported his education, and helped him rise to great heights. She became his wife. Everyone praised him for never abandoning the farm girl who funded his rise. Su Yaoguang also believed she had found a good man. Unexpectedly, when she was seriously ill, she saw Xiao Yanci bring his first love and a child who resembled them both to her bedside. "Dad, mom, when will this person die?" the child asked, holding Xiao Yanci's hand. Xiao Yanci responded, "Soon, just wait a bit longer." That was the moment she realized: she had wasted her entire life on the wrong man. Returning to the age of fifteen, Su Yaoguang pointed at the bloody young boy: "I want him." In her past life, no matter what she gave Xiao Yanci, she only received a cold expression. This time, the young boy, like a wolf cub, dropped his guard; everything Sister gifted was the best. Sweet as milk. Devoted beyond reason. He melted her completely. Until one day, the young boy took a high position. Not wanting history to repeat itself, Su Yaoguang packed her things and slipped away at night, only to run into a man as noble and unattainable as a deity. "I've heard you call us siblings everywhere. Good sister, shouldn't we change what we call each other?"
