Chapter 27 – Approaching the Storm
It had been a week since Ha-Joon decided to start publishing his manga on international websites. With his Shadow Clone Technique from Naruto and some fan-made soundtracks helping keep things running smoothly, Ha-Joon was finally able to focus on his training.
Thanks to that, his base form had now reached B-Rank.
The manga worlds of Fairy Tail, Naruto, and One Piece were progressing fast. With all the filler chapters cut out, the storylines flowed far better, and Fairy Tail was quickly approaching the arc where Acnologia would appear.
The soft hum of his computer still buzzed in the background, mingling with the faint sound of traffic outside. Somewhere in the distance, a car horn blared, reminding him that the world continued moving—indifferent to the chaos brewing behind the scenes of the manga universe he was tapping into. His fingers tingled with anticipation, the weight of what he was building pressing against his chest like static before a storm.
Standing by the window, Ha-Joon watched the busy street below—cars, motorcycles, people rushing by, each caught in their own daily routines. He narrowed his eyes.
"Jin-Woo must be preparing for his class change... becoming the Shadow Monarch. That's probably going to happen sometime this week."
Ha-Joon stepped away from the window and lay down on his bed, staring at the ceiling.
"I need to start executing my plans soon. Once he becomes a Monarch, everything changes. The enemies that show up after that point… they're on a whole different level. Like it or not, I'm already caught up in this storm."
He exhaled slowly, his face calm, but his thoughts racing. His eyes began to change—one turning into a glowing Sharingan, the other shifting into the Byakugan.
"If I can execute my plan perfectly... I'll gain the initial power I need to face what's coming."
His gaze sharpened, full of determination.
"Hurry up and awaken, Jin-Woo... I'm catching up."
