Opening his eyes, Yuki looked at the chat screen in front of him.

The chat alarms had forced him to wake up, and rubbing his eyes with his fists, Yuki still wished for more rest.

But looking at the different messages on the floating screen, he decided it was time to get up. However, he was surprised by what he saw.

He was surrounded by green vines, creating a kind of cocoon.

Entering panic mode, Yuki tried to get up... but.

*Bam

"Ahhh!"

With both hands on the ground, Yuki took a small leap, causing several vines to break with his force, and his body shot out of the cocoon.

Waving his hands in the air, Yuki didn't know what was happening. He tried to stand up normally without applying chakra or any force in his arms. However, the impulse was so powerful that it resulted in a free fall.

Fortunately for Yuki, the vines grew back, enveloping his body and preventing a high fall.

"Is this... What is this?!"

Feeling something warm on the vines covering his body, Yuki opened his eyes in surprise. He recognized this energy – it was the energy of the World, something he had experienced in the Shinobi world and the Inori world.

"I understand... Thank you."

Smiling warmly, Yuki realized that the cocoon of vines was the World's way of assisting them, wrapping them both.

Caressing the vines, Yuki returned inside the Vine cocoon. Being inside it, Yuki remembered his mother's embrace. It was so warm that Yuki felt peace within it – the World loved champions, and when a champion entered a world, they expressed joy at having them.

It was like a mother waiting for her child to return from school, always welcoming with open arms. Therefore, Yuki didn't hesitate; he was grateful to the Worlds and felt emotional attachment to them.

(However, this is strange.)

Touching his chin, Yuki looked towards Inori, also wrapped in vines.

Recalling their wild activities from the previous day, Yuki smiled. This was undoubtedly the best experience he had, even compared to moments with Tsugumi and Haruka.

But there was something different about his body. Closing and opening his fists, Yuki felt a powerful force coursing through him, prompting him to activate his Sharingan.

"Hahaha... I understand! So, this is your goal, Yuu!"

Laughing heartily, Yuki admired Yuu for a moment. The Apocalypse virus had mutated in his body, adhering to his cells at an astonishing level, changing his bloodline, bones, flesh, and blood.

It could be said that the virus changed his bloodline and his entire body.

His bones, flesh, and blood were stronger, more flexible, thicker.

This also explained the enormous strength behind his arms.

With the Apocalypse virus, Yuki had obtained a perfect body. Looking at his body again, his skin was more toned, fairer, and even his appearance had changed slightly, making his features more beautiful and defined. Even his muscles were now more pronounced and entirely different from his previous slender appearance. Despite his age, Yuki could confidently say that even a professional model wouldn't have muscles more beautiful than his.

It could be said that, as expected of Adam, he was beautiful.

"Inori... Are you too?"

Discovering her change, Yuki looked towards his lady still sleeping among the vines. Despite being covered with vines, her face was visible, and Yuki had to admit that the change was significant.

Her hair had grown, becoming more beautiful and silky, even shining in the sunlight.

Her face had also changed; her previously beautiful features had now transformed into a work of art.

Her once pale cheeks were now tinted with a light pink color – her eyebrows, lips, skin...

Inori had undergone a transformation, and just like Yuki, as expected of Eve, she was a work of art.

Even Yuki, looking through the vines, noticed that her once small chest had grown a bit.

Just this change was enough for Yuki to attend to it with satisfaction.

Her "bunnies" were delicious before; now Yuki was sure they would be a delicacy.

"Yuu, you're a damn genius."

Yuki didn't know if Yuu was the creator of the Apocalypse virus or that strange organization behind him, but he had to admit that human evolution amazed him.

However, it was a pity for Yuu; even though his goals were achieved by combining the DNA of Eve and Adam, it's a shame they weren't in Inori's world.

*Shii

"Incredible."

Nodding, a small crystal emerged from Yuki's fingers.

Before leaving the previous world, Yuki looked at Inori with several crystals coming out of her body and controlling them at will.

Now he, like Inori, was bound to the Apocalypse virus at a cellular level. Therefore, his appearance and physical strength shouldn't be the only things that evolved in them.

So with a thought, a crystal came out of his body, confirming his theory. He could also control the crystals, and even the Chakra backlash had ended. After all, his hand glowed with a green color and showed no signs of crystallization.

"Well, with this, my power has returned... No, it has even increased."

Clenching his fist, the smile on Yuki's face widened. His power had increased again; even his chakra reserves were now on par with Tsunade, if not surpassing her.

However, he also smiled bitterly. After all, if he had mated with Inori in the previous world, Yuki would have saved a lot of trouble. Only now did he understand that if their DNA had united earlier, everything would have been simpler.

But there is no medicine for regret.

"No matter, everything went as I wanted... Well, almost everything."

Glancing at Inori, Yuki sighed. Now with Mana fused with Inori, Yuki didn't know how this would affect her.

"Well, I'll leave these problems to my future 'self.'"

Shaking his head, Yuki stopped thinking about it and focused on his current situation
