Chapter 238 Org###

During the Chūnin Exams, the Konoha Crush Plan began, and then, in perfect sync, Logan broke through the Four Violet Flames Formation, killed Sakon and Ukon, and confronted Orochimaru.

Later, when his identity was exposed, he encountered the Akatsuki's members, Itachi and Kisame. T

Then, Team 7, along with one of the Legendary Sannin, Jiraiya, gave chase, leading to a showdown at the Valley of the End… It is a series of events that even Logan never anticipated.

Who would have thought that such chaos would follow? But from another perspective, once Logan's affiliation with Akatsuki was revealed, it inevitably provoked Sasuke and others' obsessions.

After settling near the borders of the Land of Fire, Logan felt that the plot development had become quite thrilling.

If the scenes were viewed continuously as a story... In the original work, the Chunin Exams were already a major highlight in the manga, with powerful Ninja from various villages showcasing their skills in intriguing battles.

The exams were further complicated by Orochimaru's interference and unknown conspiracies. It all culminated when Sasuke's Chidori pierced Gaara's sand sphere, leading to a grand battle.

Such a storyline was already more than enough to satisfy readers, delivering both adrenaline and excitement, and logically, a breather should follow...

But, more action actually followed?

Amidst this, a new character named Raiden Hattori appeared.

The character set up as a friendly ally was actually a covert enemy, and Logan could imagine the shock on fans' faces. A twist in an already intense storyline, followed by an even greater one, this was what you'd call a plot explosion!

Upon returning to the real world following the [To Be Continued], Logan spent some time browsing the internet. As he had expected, the reaction within the fandom was even more fervent than he had anticipated.

In just one night, the already popular Naruto discussions soared to new heights, with record-breaking downloads of the manga's online version. Even the recently aired episodes of the anime adaptation topped the charts, solidifying its reputation as a must-watch series.

This overwhelming success and the near-phenomenal impact of the trend made the copyright holders and agents ecstatic.

Key opinion leaders and meme creators emerged en masse. After all, this development went beyond people's usual expectations.

No hiatuses, no drawn-out storytelling, no on-site research trips, how often does the author work so diligently, almost to the point of burnout? Truly, the author of Naruto is a conscientious creator in the industry.

In the forums, the most heated debates were centered on Raiden Hattori, but Logan couldn't bring himself to click on the analysis threads.

Discussions about defection motives, true identity, hidden abilities, just glancing at these made Logan uncomfortable. After all, they were seriously, rigorously, and earnestly discussing him, so it was better not to subject himself to such self-inflicted torture.

"Logan, the plot's exploding, man! Logan! Are you listening to me? The climax is intense. Wow, if I had to describe it, it's like climax after climax, climaxing to the point where..."

Hearing this, Logan, sitting at his desk, found it unbearable, "What the heck is wrong with you? Is it really necessary to keep repeating the same word? Just go ahead and say 'org***', why don't you?"

David's eyes lit up, and he suddenly shook his arm around Logan's neck enthusiastically, "Right! That term is perfect! Logan, you nailed it!"

Logan stiffly swayed along with David's movement, thinking to himself, 'This is exactly why I ignored the excited you in the morning when entering the classroom… I already knew it would lead to this kind of unbearable scene.'

As an avid fan of otaku culture, and one who loved to chatter about it, David was bound to seek Logan out to unload his thoughts.

"I said, David, do you realize that since you started using those filthy words, the girls in the class have been giving us really weird looks?"

"Really? I didn't notice." David casually glanced around, and a few disdainful and scornful looks quickly vanished. He waved dismissively, "It's nothing, who cares? I don't mind."

'But I do! You're a destined forever-alone otaku!' Logan thought, yanking David's arm off his neck, "Get lost!"

"Hey, hey, what's with that, Logan? I haven't even finished talking! Speaking of Raiden Hattori in this org*** level plot..."

'You're the one in an org*** plot, your whole family is!' Logan grabbed his textbook and used it to block David's face. But David persisted, and just as Logan was tempted to blast him with a Chidori, the short break finally ended amidst their squabble, and the bell rang.

Wang Haoxue reluctantly retreated under the gaze of the teacher who walked in, and Logan sighed in relief.

The classroom quickly quieted down under the dull and serious teaching voice. In November, the sunlight outside wasn't as dazzling as the golden summer. Tall evergreen pines and cedars stood steadfastly, offering their green branches as they had through all seasons, a familiar color that had accompanied the students through many monotonous days.

Logan rested his head and looked out the window for a while, sighing softly inside. The difference between moments before and after the bell was vast. The teacher called on students, and the otherwise silent campus echoed with a few low voices answering questions.

 He turned back to listen to the faint sounds of chalk on the board. His peers, in their youthful years, had once again returned to the simple routine of attending classes.

He thought about how David would definitely come to bother him again with all sorts of discussions about Raiden Hattori… 'Seriously, who wants to hear any of that? It was so annoying.'

In the tranquil classroom, students flipped their books as the teacher instructed, and during the forty-five minutes, there were moments of interest, but more often than not, it was dull and uneventful.

Listening to teachings that carried a different significance for him, Logan found that David's annoyance didn't matter much, and he briefly forgot about it. Though, come break time, he might find him irritating all over again.

Having spent so much time on the path of a Ninja, Logan often felt a slight sense of disconnection from the school environment. Constantly traveling between two worlds, and with powers beyond normal humans, it was natural for him to hold a less-than-enthusiastic attitude towards his classes. Given his unique circumstances, it seemed quite reasonable.

The chilly autumn breeze swept through the city where Logan had spent many years. At this moment, Logan had no idea what events were yet to come.

Just like that, a week passed amidst the disruptions to his real-world life caused by the shocking plot developments. Logan cleared his mind, and under the night sky, he sat quietly in his room, awaiting his next crossing, 'Sigh, it seemed like there was a lot for me to do on the other side.'

…

However, the next morning.

"Logan, hurry up and get up!"

"...?"
