A small dot appeared in front of the blazing sun, seemingly insignificant against the endless void. However, as the distance closed, the figure of a young man became clear—Dev.
Floating freely in the vastness of space, he stretched his arms outward, basking in the warmth of the sun's golden light. His body hummed with power as it greedily absorbed the radiant energy, his cells pulsing with newfound strength. It felt warm, comforting—almost like a mother's embrace.
His lips curled into a wide grin. "This… this feels incredible."
The very fabric of his being resonated with the solar energy, enhancing his Kryptonian physiology to new heights. His senses sharpened further, his body brimming with vitality beyond anything he had experienced before.
Yet, the sun wasn't the only celestial body that intrigued him. A few moments later, Dev turned his gaze toward the pale satellite that hung in the vast darkness—the moon.
"Let's see how that feels."
With a mere thought, he propelled himself forward, his body cutting through the void like a meteor. In mere seconds, he landed gracefully on the moon's surface. As his feet touched the gray, dusty terrain, he took a deep breath—not out of necessity, but out of sheer curiosity.
A strange sensation filled him. The energy in the air was different—cool, calming, yet brimming with an unfamiliar force. He frowned slightly and asked, "Eve, what is this energy? It feels… different from the sun's energy."
Eve's voice chimed in his mind, amused. [That, my dear, is lunar energy. Just as the sun fuels your Kryptonian cells with raw power and aggression, the moon provides a different kind of energy—mystical, stabilizing, and deeply connected to elemental forces.]
Dev's eyes widened in fascination. He clenched his fists, feeling his body unconsciously absorbing the energy. "So, I'm absorbing this too? Does that mean I can harness both?"
[Correct! Since your body is uniquely modified, you don't just absorb solar radiation—you absorb cosmic energy as a whole. That includes solar, lunar, and even other celestial energies. The benefits of lunar energy are still unknown, but if I had to guess, it could enhance your control over elements, sharpen your instincts, or even grant unique abilities over time.]
Hearing this, Dev couldn't hold back his excitement. He started laughing like a child, kicking up lunar dust as he floated above the surface. "I can't believe this! This is amazing!"
Eve giggled at his childish enthusiasm. [You're acting like you just discovered a new toy, dear.]
Still laughing, Dev spun around, arms outstretched. "Can you blame me?! I'm literally standing on the moon, absorbing some mysterious cosmic energy! This is beyond what I imagined!"
A few hours ago, before coming here, Dev had been filled with curiosity about his new abilities. He had turned to Eve and said, "I need to test my limits. Let's go to space."
Eve, always supportive of his ambitions (and secretly enjoying his enthusiasm), had helped him prepare. He put on his Undetectable Combat Suit, activated Stealth Mode, and used his Spatial Manipulation to ensure no satellites, high-tech radars, or powerful quirk users could detect him. Then, with a single powerful launch, he had soared into the sky, piercing through the stratosphere into the boundless void beyond.
And now, here he was—floating between the stars, unrestricted and limitless.
Sitting on the moon's cold, dusty surface, Dev stared into the infinite cosmos, his mind deep in thought. The stillness of space felt peaceful, a rare moment of silence where he could reflect without the constant chaos of the world below.
His gaze shifted toward his Ultimate Evolution Card, the last one remaining in his possession. He tapped his fingers against his knee, debating. "Should I use it now?"
The power from his recent evolution was still surging through him, his body overflowing with strength beyond anything he had ever imagined. His Kryptonian bloodline had already reached a high-tier peak, just below the legendary Silver Age Superman. He clenched his fist, feeling the immense energy coursing through his veins. He was strong—strong enough that even the most powerful beings on Earth would struggle against him.
"No rush," he muttered, exhaling softly. "I'll save it for later."
There was no need to waste such a precious card when he had yet to fully explore his current abilities. With that thought, he stored the Ultimate Evolution Card into his Inventory, deciding to use it only when the time was right.
Just as he settled his thoughts, something else caught his attention—his Summoning Card.
Eve, who had been quietly observing, chimed in. [Are you planning to use it now?]
Dev hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Yeah. But before that..." He paused and asked again, "Are you absolutely sure the summoned person will be loyal?"
Eve let out an amused chuckle. [You've asked this before, you know?]
Dev scratched the back of his head. "I just want to be sure."
[Relax, dear. The Summoning Card guarantees absolute loyalty. No betrayal, no doubts—whoever arrives will be devoted to you completely. Their bond with you will be unbreakable.]
Hearing that, Dev's hesitation faded. He took a deep breath and gave the command.
"Alright, Eve. Use the Summoning Card."
[Acknowledged. Activating Summoning Card.]
A golden light flickered in front of him for a brief moment before fading. Eve's voice followed. [The summoning process will take exactly 24 hours. Since it scans the entire Omniverse, searching for a suitable yet random individual across countless realities, it requires time.]
Dev raised an eyebrow. "A whole day, huh?"
[Yes. But in the meantime, why not train? You've gained incredible power, but raw strength isn't enough—you should refine your control. Especially your elemental quirk. If you can raise your mastery from 10% to at least 20% or 30%, your combat effectiveness will skyrocket.]
Dev grinned. "Good idea."
With that, he stood up, cracked his knuckles, and with a single thought, soared back to Earth—ready to push his limits even further before his summoned ally arrived.
Then scene Shifts, while Dev was training and awaiting for the summoned person, elsewhere The sun hung low in the sky, casting long shadows over the village of Sunagakure. In the heart of the village, Pakura stood before the Kazekage, her heart pounding with a mix of excitement and trepidation. The Kazekage, a stoic figure with a gaze that seemed to pierce through the very soul, regarded her with a seriousness that made the air feel heavy.
"Pakura," he began, his voice steady, "the time has come for us to forge an alliance with Kirigakure. The threat of rogue ninja grows stronger, and we cannot afford to stand alone. You are our best chance at securing this alliance."
Pakura nodded, determination igniting within her. She had always been a loyal shinobi, willing to put herself on the line for her village. "I won't let you down, Kazekage. I'll do whatever it takes to ensure our safety."
As she prepared for her journey, the weight of her mission settled on her shoulders. She was to represent Sunagakure, to negotiate peace with a village known for its treachery. The thought sent a shiver down her spine, but she steeled herself. She would not fail.
Upon her arrival in Kirigakure, the mist enveloped her like a shroud, obscuring her vision and heightening her senses. The village was beautiful yet haunting, its architecture a blend of elegance and menace. As she approached the Mizukage's office, she felt the eyes of the villagers upon her, their gazes filled with suspicion and curiosity.
The Mizukage welcomed her with a charming smile, but Pakura could sense the underlying tension. "Welcome, Pakura of the Sand. We are honored by your presence," he said, his voice smooth like silk. "Let us discuss the future of our villages."
Days turned into weeks as Pakura navigated the treacherous waters of diplomacy. She shared stories of her village, her hopes for peace, and her vision of a united front against their common enemies. Yet, the Mizukage's demeanor shifted from cordial to calculating. Whispers of betrayal began to swirl around her, and she felt the walls closing in.
One fateful evening, during a banquet meant to celebrate their budding alliance, the atmosphere turned electric. Pakura raised her glass, toasting to unity, when suddenly, the lights flickered, and a group of elite Mist shinobi emerged from the shadows. The Mizukage's smile twisted into a cruel smirk.
"Did you really think we would allow you to unite our villages?" he taunted, his voice dripping with malice. "You are nothing but a pawn, Pakura."
Before she could react, the shinobi lunged at her, their movements swift and lethal. Pakura fought valiantly, her Scorch Release techniques igniting the air around her, but she was outnumbered. The betrayal cut deeper than any blade; the very people she sought to ally with were now her executioners.
As she fell to the ground, blood pooling around her, the world began to fade. The pain was excruciating, but it was the betrayal that shattered her spirit. In her final moments, she thought of her village, her comrades, and the dreams she had for peace. Just as darkness threatened to consume her, a voice echoed in her mind, resonating with power and urgency.As the summoning completed, a brilliant light enveloped Pakura, pulling her from the brink of death. She opened her eyes to find herself in a new world,
---

As Pakura opened her eyes, the first thing she noticed was that she wasn't dead. The pain that had wracked her body moments ago was gone, replaced by an unfamiliar warmth coursing through her. The air around her felt lighter, almost invigorating, yet the energy in this place was unlike anything she had ever encountered.
Her sharp emerald eyes darted around, analyzing her surroundings like the trained kunoichi she was. Then, her gaze landed on him.
A young man stood before her, his presence nearly overwhelming. He was striking—no, beyond that, he was breathtakingly handsome. His golden eyes radiated an unnatural brilliance, and his very stance exuded confidence and something more… something powerful.
Pakura's breath hitched for just a moment, a heat creeping up her neck—before her instincts roared back to life. This was a foreign place. She had been attacked. Betrayed. And now, she had no idea where she was.
In a blink, she moved, summoning a kunai into her hand, the cool steel a familiar comfort. Her body shifted into a battle stance, eyes locked onto the mysterious young man.
"Who are you?! Where is this place?!" she demanded, her voice sharp and unwavering. "What have you done to me?!"
She fired question after question, each word laced with tension, but despite the clear threat in her tone, the young man remained completely relaxed.
Dev tilted his head slightly, intrigued by the kunoichi's quick reaction. Instead of responding immediately, he took a moment to observe her. The way her body instinctively shifted for combat, the sharpness in her gaze, the way her chakra flared in warning—she was a warrior through and through.
But something about her presence amused him.
Before he could reply, a voice chimed in.
"Ooooh, she blushed first before pulling a weapon. Interesting." Eve's teasing tone echoed in Dev's mind, clearly enjoying the unfolding interaction.
Pakura's eyes flickered, sensing something—someone—else. Her grip on the kunai tightened as she scanned the area for the unknown entity.
Dev chuckled. "Relax, I'm not your enemy." His voice was smooth, calm, but there was an undeniable weight behind his words.
Pakura narrowed her eyes, assessing him. No openings. No fear. He stood like someone who had absolute confidence in his strength. Even the strongest shinobi she had met would flinch under such intense scrutiny—but not him.
Who is this man?!
Her instincts screamed at her. He wasn't normal. His presence was like standing in the eye of a storm—calm on the surface, but with immeasurable power lurking underneath.
Dev smirked slightly. "You're in my world now, Pakura."
She stiffened. How did he know her name?
Eve chimed in again, her tone dripping with amusement. "Oh, this is going to be fun."
==========≡≡≡≡≡≡≡==============
Pakura's grip on her kunai faltered for a split second. What is this feeling?
A sudden warmth spread through her body—not just warmth, but an unshakable sense of belonging. It wasn't forced, nor was it oppressive, but it was absolute.
Her sharp instincts screamed at her to resist, to fight against this strange sensation, yet... she couldn't. Her very soul recognized him. Her loyalty was no longer a choice; it was an undeniable fact.
Her knees nearly buckled, but she held firm, trying to process what was happening. Why… Why do I feel like I should follow him?
She clenched her fists, her heart pounding. Pakura had been betrayed before. She had trusted, only to be cast aside. Yet, this was different—deeper. This wasn't mere allegiance; it was something far beyond a shinobi oath.
Dev noticed the flicker of emotions in her expression and sighed. The Summoning Card really does make them 100% loyal...
"Eve," he said calmly, "give her the rundown. Tell her everything."
Eve's voice rang out, carrying a strange mix of excitement and professionalism.
"Acknowledged! Now then, Pakura, let me explain everything in simple terms."
Pakura's eyes widened as a flood of information surged into her mind, Eve's words guiding her through the chaos.
First, she learned of Dev.
He wasn't just some shinobi. He was something else entirely—a being capable of traversing the Omniverse itself. He had powers beyond anything she could comprehend, abilities that defied logic.
Second, she learned what happened to her.
She had died—betrayed. But Dev had pulled her from the abyss, summoning her into this new world. He had given her a second chance, a new purpose.
Third, she learned about this world.
It was different from her own. Here, people wielded supernatural abilities known as Quirks. The entire society was built around these powers, with heroes and villains constantly clashing in an endless struggle. Unlike shinobi, who honed chakra and techniques, these people's powers were innate, granted to them at birth.
And then came the final revelation—Dev could grant her power beyond her imagination.
Pakura gasped, taking a shaky step back as she tried to process it all. Her loyalty to him was now an undeniable truth, but instead of feeling trapped, she felt… safe?
No. Not just safe. Empowered.
Slowly, she looked up at Dev, truly seeing him for the first time. The man who had saved her. The man who now held her unwavering loyalty.
Her kunai slipped from her fingers, clattering to the ground.
"What…" she breathed out, her voice almost unsteady. "What do you want from me?"
Dev met her gaze, his expression unreadable. Then, a smirk tugged at his lips.
"To stand by my side," he said simply.
And for the first time in a long while, Pakura felt like she belonged somewhere.
-----------------------------------------------------------
---
Dev, still watching Pakura's reaction, smirked slightly. Time to see exactly what I'm working with.
"Eve," he commanded, "show me Pakura's status."
A translucent blue screen materialized in the air, filled with intricate data streams.
[Pakura – Scorch Release Kunoichi]
[Strength: A-]
[Speed: A]
[Chakra Reserves: B+]
[Intelligence: A]
[Loyalty: MAX (Bound by Summoning Contract)]
[Abilities: Scorch Release, High-Speed Taijutsu, Strategic Warfare]
Pakura's eyes narrowed as she read the data. What kind of technique is this? The concept of "status" wasn't something that existed in her world, yet here it was—listing her entire skill set like some kind of game.
But Dev wasn't finished.
"Eve, can she awaken a Quirk in this world?"
Eve's voice rang out confidently.
"Yes! After being summoned, a person can awaken new abilities, bloodlines, or powers based on their compatibility. As Pakura has become your loyal follower, she qualifies for an awakening."
Pakura's breath hitched.
New power…?
She had already been a powerful kunoichi, but the thought of growing even stronger sent a thrill through her veins.
Dev's smirk deepened. "Then let's do it. Awaken her potential."
A surge of golden energy burst forth from Pakura's body as her entire being trembled with newfound power.
Her Scorch Release ability began to mutate, her flames shifting from their usual blazing orange to a shimmering blue-white hue, hotter than ever before. The very air around her shimmered from the sheer intensity.
A system notification popped up.
[Pakura has awakened a Quirk: Sunfire Scorch]
Description: A fusion of Scorch Release and an unknown energy, allowing her to create superheated plasma that burns hotter than anything previously recorded.
Effects: Enhanced Destructive Power, Flight, Heat Manipulation, and Continuous Energy Absorption.
Pakura's body felt lighter, her senses sharper than ever. She looked down at her hands, watching as flickers of white-hot flames danced across her fingertips.
"…This is unreal," she whispered.
Dev crossed his arms, satisfied. Yeah, this was a damn good summon.
"And..."
Dev smirked, looking at Pakura's still-dazzled expression. "Before we head to the villa, I have something else for you."
Pakura blinked, still adjusting to her newfound strength. "Something else?"
"Yeah," Dev said, cracking his knuckles. "A little… enhancement."
"Eve, fuse Muscular's Quirk into her."
Pakura barely had time to react before a powerful surge of energy flooded her body. Every muscle fiber in her frame pulsed, expanding momentarily before condensing into an even denser, more powerful form. Her already incredible physical prowess skyrocketed.
["Ding"]
A system notification appeared in Dev's vision.
[Quirk Fusion Successful: Muscular Augmentation]
[Strength Enhancement: Drastically boosts physical power and durability.]
[Muscle Control: Allows the user to manipulate muscle fibers at will, increasing speed and impact force.]
[Regeneration: Rapid muscle recovery for extended battles.]
Pakura gasped as she clenched her fists, feeling raw, unfiltered power coursing through her. Her body felt invincible.
Dev grinned. "Consider this your second welcoming gift."
Eve chuckled teasingly in his mind. [You're really coaxing her like a child, huh?]
Pakura dropped to one knee, bowing her head. "I swear to follow you, Dev. No matter where you go, I'll stand by your side."
Dev reached out, lifting her chin with two fingers before pulling her up. "No need for that. Just call me Dev."
Pakura hesitated for a second before nodding. "Understood, Dev."
He smirked. "Come on, let's get you settled in."
With that, he led her toward his massive villa. As Pakura took her first steps into Dev's villa, the reality of her new life began to settle in. This world was unlike anything she had known, yet something about it—about him—felt right.
The air carried the scent of the sea, the distant waves crashing against the shore in a rhythmic melody. The villa itself was massive, far beyond anything she had seen in Sunagakure, but what truly caught her attention was the underground training facility Dev had casually mentioned. Power hummed in the air, and she knew this place would be where she honed her new abilities.
Dev glanced at her with a smirk. "You've only just begun to see what I can offer. Stay by my side, and I promise you'll reach heights you never imagined."
Pakura met his gaze, her fiery determination burning brighter than ever. She had been betrayed once, left to die by the very people she sought to protect. But now, she had a second chance. A new master—no, a new leader—one who had already given her more than her old world ever had.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting the sky in brilliant hues of orange and crimson, she clenched her fist.
She would grow stronger. She would carve her name into history, not as a pawn, but as a warrior feared across worlds.
And when the time came… she would settle the score with Kirigakure.
A storm was brewing.
And this time, she would be the one to set the world ablaze.
