Speedrunning Naruto to the Top - Chapter 138: Happy Birthday Izayoi!

When the average man is suddenly thrown into a video game as an extra, fated to die, they might first think to hide or run away. But not Luka. A man now inhabiting the body, he simply wants to survive - no matter the cost - even if it means he has to kill the main character!

Talent, appearance, power.

How does it feel to lose your parents at the tender age of four?Imagine the trauma, the psychological scars. Now, take it a step further—what if they died right in front of you?That was Kael’s reality. As a young boy, he watched his parents perish while desperately protecting a golden coin.At the time, Kael had no idea of its significance. He only knew that their deaths were tied to it.Fleeing from his father’s murderers, he was forced to survive on the unforgiving streets, learning to fight, steal, and endure.Twelve years later, he had transformed into one of the deadliest assassins the world had ever known.He had no official title. No known employer. No traceable identity. Just a calling card.They called him The Coin Flipper.Not because he left his mark, but because after every kill—just as the body hit the ground, as the last breath escaped—he would flip a coin.No one knew why. Some believed it was mockery, a cruel reminder that fate had turned against them. Others thought it was ritual.But what they didn’t know was that each coin held power—literal currency of the Core System embedded in Kael’s soul.Every kill earned him millions. Digital fortunes funneled into off-grid accounts with each confirmed target. Blood turned into bounty, pain into profit.And one thing was certain: if you saw the glint of a coin spinning through the air, death had already found you.

What does it feel like to take the young prince who has traveled through a thousand years of time on a parent-child variety show?Mu Ran says: It feels great.The child doesn't need much care.And he can help me clear my name.Before the variety show aired:[I still vividly remember the scene where she yelled at my brother on set!][Haha, the director team is impressive for inviting this ancestor. Hope her yelling won't constantly flood the live stream!][Is she even fit to bring a child? Is she here to present a negative example?]......After the variety show aired:[Director Mu, you are my god!][Wuwuwu, the little guy is so well-behaved and handsome, I can't tell if he's my internet son or my internet husband.][You beasts, all coveting the little guy. I'm different, Director Mu, please marry me, I love you ahhhhh!!]......Mu Ran scrolls through Weibo and likes a friend's post, appreciating her courage to propose.A certain man sees this and says sourly, “Stop thinking about others. You can only be my wife, we have the red marriage certificate, legally protected.”Mu Ran rolls her eyes.It's enough that the Empress sent the little angel child here.How could she also send a man over?Truly...Happy.
