Chapter Summaries

Jiraiya and Tsunade discussed conserving Hawking’s predictions before Jiraiya prepared to infiltrate Rain Ninja Village, leaving Tsunade afraid he might not return. Meanwhile, Hawking reviewed Susan’s plans and developed ideas for a League of Legends game and a global ability-user tournament.

• Tsunade questioned whether Hawking’s predictions truly cost as much as he claimed, but Jiraiya argued that Konoha should save his help and preserve valuable ninjutsu for future exchanges.

• Hawking proposed adding heroes, tournament contestants, and defeated villains to the League of Legends game and expanding the characters into other media.
• Hawking suggested holding a globally livestreamed ability-user tournament near New York, with escalating prizes and a champion’s wish, and planned to participate as Saiyan Superman.

Jiraiya infiltrated Rain Hidden Village to investigate Nagato, but the Six Paths of Pain defeated him after he discovered Nagato’s plan. As Pain prepared to kill him, Hawking arrived and destroyed Asura Path Pain, leaving Jiraiya intent on escaping with the intelligence he had gathered.

• Jiraiya sneaked into Rain Hidden Village, where Pain detected him and sent Konan to search for the intruder.
• Konan found Jiraiya controlling a Rain Hidden genin, and Jiraiya learned that Nagato planned to use a superweapon to cause mass suffering in pursuit of peace.

Hawking reported his encounter with Nagato to Konoha’s leaders and revealed that he had taken one of Nagato’s Rinnegan. Tsunade won approval to convene a Five Kage Summit, while Danzo’s attempt to replace her as Hokage was rejected.

• Hawking received Susan’s report confirming that the leaked video had surfaced by accident, then returned to training and entered Mount Myōboku.
• Jiraiya summoned Hawking to a meeting of Konoha’s leaders, where Hawking recounted his escape from Nagato and showed them the Rinnegan he had taken.
• Tsunade announced plans to convene a Five Kage Summit to unite the villages against Akatsuki, which had already gathered seven Tailed Beasts, and Konoha’s leaders approved.
• Danzo argued that Tsunade should be removed as Hokage and that he should represent Konoha at the summit, but the advisers backed Tsunade.

Danzo proposed placing Naruto and Hawking under Root’s protection, but Hawking exposed Danzo’s hidden Sharingan by destroying his clothes. The chapter left Danzo facing accusations from Konoha’s leaders and clan heads over his implanted Sharingan and possible role in the Uchiha Clan massacre.

• Danzo proposed that Root take custody of Naruto and Hawking to protect them from Akatsuki, and Konoha’s advisors supported him.
• Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Kakashi opposed Danzo’s proposal, while Danzo threatened Hawking by reminding him he depended on the Summoning Technique to reach Konoha.
• Hawking appeared behind Danzo and used Confringo to blow apart his clothes and bandages, exposing the Sharingan implanted in his arm.
• Tsunade, Konoha’s advisors, and Hiashi Hyuga demanded that Danzo explain why he had so many Sharingan.
• Hawking suggested that Danzo might have been involved with Akatsuki and the Uchiha Clan massacre, turning more accusations against him.

Tsunade stripped Danzo of his village positions and confined him to Root while an investigation proceeded, but could not punish him more severely. Hawking received the Flying Thunder God Technique scroll and planned to seek instruction from Minato as well as Genma Team.

Hawking planned to draw Sasuke back to Konoha to obtain Indra’s Chakra, while Jiraiya arranged for Naruto to train in Sage Mode at Mount Myōboku. Hawking struggled to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique and decided to study it alongside magic and spatial theory.

• Hawking reasoned that Sasuke would eventually return to Konoha to take revenge on Danzo, giving him a chance to obtain Indra’s Chakra.
• Jiraiya told Tsunade he planned to take Naruto to Mount Myōboku for final training so Naruto could learn Sage Mode and avoid Akatsuki.
• Genma Team warned Hawking that the Flying Thunder God Technique was exceptionally difficult to master, and Hawking made little progress during his first lesson.
• Hawking considered combining his study of the Flying Thunder God Technique with Apparition and research into quantum entanglement and spatial theory.

Hawking went looking for Phoenix to ask about spatial theory but accidentally discovered her with Cyclops in the locked infirmary. After leaving, he ran into Wanda, who claimed she had a stomachache and wanted painkillers from Phoenix.

• Hawking admitted he could not understand the spatial theory books and decided to seek Phoenix's guidance because Beast Hank was away.
• Hawking found the infirmary locked, entered in Shinigami Mode, and saw Phoenix and Cyclops together on the desk.
• Hawking retreated without disturbing them and left the infirmary, trying to calm himself afterward.
• Hawking ran into Wanda, who said she had a stomachache and had come to get painkillers from Professor Jean.
• Hawking started to take Wanda to the infirmary, then remembered what he had seen, and Wanda awkwardly said she could go by herself.

Hawking cared for Wanda when her period caused stomach pain, taking her back to the dormitory and easing her cramps. After Wanda fell asleep, he leaned toward her lips while she pretended to be asleep, leaving their feelings unspoken.

• Hawking realized Wanda's stomach pain was caused by her period and accompanied her to the locked medical room, where he chose not to interrupt Jean's experiment.
• Hawking carried Wanda back to her dormitory, reassuring her that caring for her mattered more than training and offering to get her medicine later.
• Hawking warmed his hand with qi and rubbed Wanda's stomach until her pain eased and she fell asleep.
• Hawking noticed Wanda's lips, bent down toward her, and failed to notice that she was awake and nervously pretending to sleep.

Hawking stopped himself from kissing Wanda and decided to wait before acting on his changing feelings, while Wanda realized he might feel the same way. After Hawking returned to her room with medicine, Wanda pretended to sleep and clung to him, leaving him struggling to control his attraction.

• Hawking stopped just before kissing Wanda, left her room, and considered his feelings and how Wanda's family might react if they became a couple.
• Hawking found the medical room locked, confronted Phoenix, and asked her for painkillers for Wanda; Phoenix used telekinesis to bring them to him while hiding Cyclops inside.
• Hawking warned Phoenix that students might hear through the soundproofing, and she realized he had caught on to her and Cyclops's encounter.
• Wanda, surrounded by Chaos Energy, realized Hawking's feelings might go beyond treating her as a sister and resolved to win him over.
• Hawking returned to Wanda's room with medicine, and she pretended to wake up, took it, and held onto him while he tried to calm himself.

Hawking reached the point where he could sense the Flying Thunder God Formula and decided to seek further guidance from the Fourth Hokage. On Mount Myōboku, he joined Naruto’s Sage Mode lessons and began considering how its principles could help him combine different kinds of energy.

• After a week of training with Genma Team and studying spatial knowledge with Phoenix, Hawking sensed the Flying Thunder God Formula and decided to ask the Fourth Hokage for help.
• Hawking arrived on Mount Myōboku and found Naruto learning from Fukasaku after Jiraiya had brought him there to prepare for Sasuke.
• Fukasaku agreed to let Hawking study Sage Mode theory alongside Naruto but said he would train Hawking only after Naruto had learned it.
• Fukasaku explained how natural energy was balanced with physical and mental energy to form senjutsu Chakra, while Hawking considered combining Chakra with other energies to develop new modes.

Hawking arranged for Minato to help him master the Flying Thunder God Technique in exchange for letting him meet Naruto. The next day, Hawking brought Minato’s consciousness to Naruto’s mental space, beginning their reunion.

• Hawking continued studying Sage Mode while Fukasaku taught Naruto to sense natural energy.
• Hawking explained Naruto’s life to Minato and convinced him to help with the Flying Thunder God Technique in exchange for meeting Naruto.
• Hawking told Naruto he would give him a dad, leaving Naruto confused.
• The next day, Hawking brought food to Mount Myōboku and sent Minato’s consciousness into Naruto’s mental space to meet him.

Hawking mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique and began training to enter Sage Mode at Mount Myōboku. As he absorbed natural energy with ease, Fukasaku suspected he was a natural-born sage.

• Hawking successfully used the Flying Thunder God Technique after a month of practice and planned to continue learning Apparition.
• Minato taught Hawking his ultimate Flying Thunder God technique, then asked him not to summon him again because he believed the dead should remain dead.
• Hawking learned that Naruto had mastered Sage Mode and that the Akatsuki conflict had unfolded differently, with no Fourth Shinobi World War declared at the Five Kage Summit.
• Hawking asked Fukasaku to begin Sage Mode training, and Fukasaku applied Toad Oil to help him sense and absorb natural energy.
• Hawking quickly drew natural energy into his body, astonishing Fukasaku, who wondered if Hawking was a natural-born sage.

Hawking achieved perfect Sage Mode and estimated that his vast Chakra and other powers would let him sustain it for hours. Back in the Marvel World, he learned that Doctor Reed’s Gravity Chamber had reached its technological limit at tenfold gravity, so he planned to recruit more scientists and find stronger metals.

• Fukasaku marveled that Hawking had entered perfect Sage Mode on his first attempt with Toad Oil.
• Hawking explained how his enormous Chakra reserves and other powers had helped him balance natural energy, and planned to experiment with ki, magic power, and Shinigami Power.
• Hawking returned to the Marvel World and learned from Doctor Reed that he had achieved tenfold gravity but could not increase it with current technology and materials.
• Doctor Reed proposed recruiting more scientists or finding stronger metal, and Hawking decided to pursue both approaches.
• Hawking considered asking Nick Fury for scientists and seeking Adamantium, Vibranium, or Uru Metal for the Gravity Chamber.
