The air between the two brothers had fallen still.
The morning sun poured soft gold across the old wooden rooftop. Mist still lingered in the air, carrying the subtle chill of early dawn.
Satoru rested his chin on his palm, lazily swinging one leg as he stared off into nothing, lost in thought.
Then suddenly—
"Ah! I forgot to tell you something!"
Eren raised an eyebrow, casting a sidelong glance, already suspicious.
"What did you forget this time?"
Satoru turned, placing both hands on his knees, grinning mischievously like he'd just remembered something interesting.
"Someone new's about to drop into our world."
A Gut Feeling
That one sentence made Eren's eyes sharpen.
Normally, he didn't care much for "systems" or multiverse nonsense.But if someone else was about to be summoned—
Would they be friend… or foe?
Eren clenched his jaw slightly, voice low.
"Little brother… when?"
Satoru narrowed his eyes in thought, answering without urgency:
"Fifteen days from now.By then, you'll already be on the battlefield."
Eren tightened his fist, slamming it lightly into his palm.
"Damn it."
He hated this feeling.
If Satoru were nearby, the two could easily assess and contain the situation.But without eren—if this new arrival was unstable…
Could satoru even handle it?
Satoru glanced at him and noticed the way Eren's gaze darkened.There was something cold in his brother's eyes.
And strangely—That made Satoru feel… warm.
Having a brother like this wasn't so bad, after all.
He chuckled, slapping Eren lightly on the shoulder.
"Relax, big bro. Maybe everything'll turn out fine.""As long as it's not some overpowered loot-box monster, I should be good. I'm already broke enough to qualify as a chakra-poor demon."
Eren: "…"
Eren: "..."
He stared at Satoru with eyes cold enough to freeze the sky.
In his heart bloomed a very specific thought—
One punch.Founding Titan Punch.A loving punch… for this sharp-tongued little brother of mine.
Satoru grinned, shameless.
"Big bro, don't look at me like that.You're staring like you wanna murder someone."
"I do want to murder you," Eren said flatly.
Satoru scratched his head and smiled sheepishly.
Work?
Suddenly, Eren leaned forward, resting his elbow on his knee.
"Little brother… I should find a job.Is there anything here like the Survey Corps from our old world?"
Satoru blinked, then rubbed his chin.
"Well, there is a patrol corps. Kinda similar to your Survey Corps—or like, the police.Only problem is… they're basically all Uchiha."
Eren frowned.
"The patrol force is entirely Uchiha?"
Satoru nodded.
"Yep. But hey—why not ask Shisui or Obito for help getting in?"
Truth be told, Eren was used to Uchihas.The arrogance, the cold pride—it didn't faze him.He had become something similar in the last life anyway.
He was about to nod—
When Satoru struck again.
"But if you're too far from me, big bro… who's gonna fund your food?And wouldn't you miss me so much you'd start crying?"
Eren: "…"
Eren: "..."
Patience.Must endure.Murdering someone in the middle of town… is not a good idea.
Eren ground his teeth.
Satoru roared with laughter.
The Summons
The two brothers sat for a while longer.Satoru was still basking in his small victory from successfully annoying Eren—
Until suddenly—
A figure appeared.
A member of ANBU.
Through a swirl of white smoke, a short, round shadow emerged.Draped in a black ANBU cloak, masked in the signature animal face, the figure stood in front of them.
Satoru looked up—and nearly burst out laughing.
An ANBU ninja… with a potbelly.
He quickly covered his mouth.
Even with the mask on, there was no hiding that gut.
He fought to keep a straight face as the ninja spoke, voice serious and deadpan:
"Satoru Hoshino.You've been summoned by Hokage-sama.Report immediately to Lady Tsunade."
Satoru coughed into his fist, nodding with exaggerated seriousness—though the twitch in his lips betrayed him.
He stood, dusted himself off, and turned to Eren.
"Big bro, keep an eye on Danzo.He's not just powerful—he's dangerous politically."
Eren watched him for a moment—Then gave a quiet nod.
"You too."
Satoru offered a small smile, waved lazily,and walked off—Toward the Hokage Tower.
