In a world ruled by supernatural abilities known as Quirks, Suzuki Saito awakens in the body of a ten-year-old child… completely powerless. Not a chosen hero. Not the bearer of a delayed miracle. Just an ordinary human thrown six years before the beginning of My Hero Academia, in an era that shows no mercy to the weak. Inside a small room filled with heavy silence, living with a kind grandmother who fears the world of heroes after losing both her husband and son, Saito comes to understand a cruel truth: This body failed once before—because it tried to become a hero through brute force… and paid for it with its life. The new Saito has no Midoriya-like illusions, nor Bakugo’s reckless aggression. He is a twenty-eight-year-old man in mindset, a former office worker who understands risk, values life, and refuses to live in fear. Rather than waiting for a miracle that will never come, he makes a different decision: If he cannot become a hero through overwhelming power, then he will become one through intelligence, planning, and preparation—a “gear” that prevents disaster before it begins. Six years stand between him and U.A. High School. Six years of training, studying, and analysis. He has no room for mistakes… because in this world, mistakes mean death. And so, a new chapter begins— not with dazzling power, but with stubborn human will, in a world that believes only in strength. Author’s Note: For every 10 Power Stones you add, you will receive an extra chapter, friends!

Bitz inexplicably crossed over into the world of One Piece and became a member of the battle-obsessed Saiyan race. With a Bloodline Propagation System attached to him, as long as he performed actions that benefited the spread of his bloodline, he would receive rewards. Thus, the One Piece World gained a man who called himself a “Saiyan,” whose daily life consisted of either sowing seeds, or being on the way to sow seeds. Robin: “N-No, don’t use the tail…” Vivi: “Mmm~ Th-This is all for Alabasta…” Straw Hat crew: “Damn it, give Nami back!” Hancock: “Ahh, Lord Bitz, all of Amazon Lily belongs to you.” Five Elders: “Where did this monster come from? Even the Celestial Dragons aren’t as wicked as him!”

The Quiet Flame - BROKEN BY SABAODY, REBORN BY THE SEA. STRANDED AMONG A WARRIOR TRIBE THAT EVOLVED TO SURVIVE THE GRAND LINE, SANJI MUST REDEFINE WHAT STRENGTH TRULY MEANS — BEFORE THE WORLD FORCES THE ANSWER OUT OF HIM. After the disaster at Sabaody Archipelago, Sanji vanishes from the world—not as a cook, not as a Straw Hat, but as a man shattered by his own weakness. Haunted by defeat and determined to never be useless again, he awakens the dormant power in his blood, tempers his mind, and abandons the man he used to be. With only a small sloop, one month of rations, and no destination beyond the pull of a log pose, Sanji sails south—into the merciless heart of the Grand Line. The sea answers with ruin. Cast onto an uncharted island, Sanji discovers the Long-Neck Tribe—one of the oldest warrior races of the Grand Line, a people who evolved their own bodies to survive chaos and wield Haki as naturally as breath. There, he meets Rem, a warrior whose beauty rivals the heavens and whose strength rivals the sea itself. To remain on the island, Sanji must prove himself. To leave it, he must surpass himself. As he is drawn into brutal trials, philosophical battles, and a way of life that values adaptation above all else, Sanji begins to realize that strength is not about power— —it is about identity. And when a threat emerges that even the Long-Necks fear, Sanji will be forced to answer a question greater than any fight: Is he a man forged by kindness… or a weapon refined by the world? This is not the story of how Sanji became stronger. This is the story of what he chose to become.
