A Word from the Author

It's finished with 1.2 million words.

The final unified storyline and Kaguya's storyline were cut. One reason is the power gap between Kaguya and Madara Uchiha; if they wanted to improve her...

It would require a deus ex machina.

It didn't seem very interesting.

As for unification, there really isn't a good way to write it that would interest everyone. After thinking about it, I might as well finish it before the Spring Festival.

I don't want to write Hokage for the time being; I'm completely out of inspiration and have no ideas.

My initial intention in writing this book, starting with children as young as 8, was to do something different from what I had done before. However, it turned out that it was not suitable for children starting with this age, which led to problems with the structure.

I have seen everyone's criticisms.

I'm too ashamed to face them, and I don't know how to reply.

The skill level has indeed declined.

I kept writing, but towards the end I lost my passion and all that was left was rough technique.

Writing books and working are both like rowing against the current; if you don't move forward, you fall behind.

Thanks to my editor "Parasol Tree".

He gave me a chance; otherwise, it might have been difficult for this book to even be considered a masterpiece. Now, I've barely managed to get a red label.

Times are changing, and we must find ways to adapt our thoughts, themes, and writing styles accordingly...

I might try a different theme for my next book.

We're just getting started; it still needs polishing. We'll try to meet as soon as possible.

Thank you for reading and for your support. I wish you all a prosperous New Year and a better life every day.
