Release #5 - Juro's Confirmation

Hana trembles at Haru’s sudden disappearance and unexplained reappearance—but Jinsuke seizes control, declaring that Haru will now train under him and the legendary Juro, the great ninja of Jin Nation. In the palace’s training grounds, we witness Juro’s mastery in motion, his elder’s prowess unquestioned. As Jinsuke reports the captured spy from Zen Nation, he reveals a startling suspicion: this may tie to a mysterious presence—and more importantly, to Haru’s burgeoning, unprecedented powers. The chapter culminates in a tense family reunion in the palace library, as Juro confirms that Haru is indeed “The One”—destined to master multiple Kuji Kiris. But if Haru has awakened, who is his counterpart? And is “the Other” preparing their own rise?
