Minato was not 'alive' prior to this event. It was foreshadowed that he would return in the filler chapters. Suigetsu and Jugo found some documents about Edo Tensei and Minato's kunai

You are right that there was no foreshadowing. I don't know when you started reading, but currently, I am editing/rewriting a chapter daily. I am at chapter 15 now. Also, The Flowing Mirror can't brainwash; the MC is manipulating his opponent to believe it can. I haven't gone through the chapter yet. Sorry for my bad writing if it was not obvious

In V2, there are some additional characters, and some existing characters will have a bit more focus, like Megumi, for example

Hastur

Cthugha

Cthulhu

Nyarlathotep

Azathoth

Yog-Sothoth

Abdul Alhazred

Thx about it :)

No cosmic beings and just a civilian Megumi

I can guess which arc you mean 😆 The fillers are not popular, but they show the shinobi world from another perspective and include some foreshadowing

Are some chapters locked? Even if they aren't, I'm not sure if I can complete the whole story of the original work. I've changed so many things that I'm not really translating anymore; I'm only using the original work as a reference. So if you wanted to read the original work, I have to disappoint you

Yes

There were more information, but ok

I don't know if you'll like it. It's a bit slow-paced right now, with a lot of foreshadowing and info dumps

You can't find my novel right now because there are no chapters, only drafts. The name is 'Cosmic Horizons: Another Odyssey Story'. I've only written a few chapters so far

I don't know anything about Sword Master Youngest Son, so it will be hard to make it similar. I may have called it a village, but it was influenced by Naruto, especially Iwa, so it's actually as big as a city

I don't know much about Assassin's Creed, but I may research it a bit. My story will focus on several characters and how they, along with their village, find themselves in a strange world. They realize that the energy system of the foreign world is somewhat similar but more focused in one aspect. They need to slowly learn about the cultures, expand their influence, and grow their village. The main focus will be on kingdom building, daily lives, and doing quests. However, the earlier chapters are focused on character development, which could turn some people off. I only have a few chapters now, so it may take a bit...
