Boom!~
With a loud bang, Wall Maria—only reclaimed for three years—was breached once again, and in the exact same location as four years ago, by the very same Titan!
It was hard to say that the Colossal Titan's actions weren't a blatant provocation toward the humans within the walls.
Naruto had wanted to confront the Colossal Titan, but unfortunately, by the time he arrived, the creature had already vanished without a trace.
"What a pity."
Upon arriving, Naruto instantly dealt with several regular Titans approaching the wall. Then, with a sword in hand, he stood guard outside the breached section and said to the people behind him, "Leave this to me. You all should quickly repair the damaged wall."
"Yes!"
The Survey Corps members who had followed Naruto immediately returned inside the wall and began organizing the people to repair the damaged section.
Outside the wall, all the Titans attracted by the explosion and approaching the breach were, without exception, cut down by Naruto as easily as slicing melons and vegetables.
"So—so powerful!"
Several newly graduated recruits had come to help, but seeing Naruto single-handedly defending the breach, they were utterly astonished.
"That person is so strong!"
"He can easily slay Titans without even using Three-Dimensional Maneuver Gear. That's incredible!"
"Is that Section Chief Naruto, the Survey Corps' 'Strongest Soldier of Humanity'?"
"Reiner, Bertholdt, where did you two just go?"
At this moment, two more recruits arrived, and their fellow trainees immediately questioned them.
"We were just in the restroom, so we came late,"
the recruit named Reiner replied vaguely, then looked at Naruto, who was guarding the breach alone from the outside.
His gaze narrowed slightly as he asked, "Is that person the hero of humanity, the leader of the Survey Corps' 'Anti-Titan Annihilation Squad'?"
"That's right, it's him!"
The buzz-cut recruit said excitedly, "He's truly as powerful as the legends say—not like a human at all. I wonder if we'll get his guidance after joining the Survey Corps and become as strong as him!"
"Stop dreaming, Connie!"
Another female recruit with long hair and large eyes said irritably, "Hoping you can become as strong as him is less realistic than him running over and proposing to me right now. But speaking of which, he's really handsome! I wonder if he has a girlfriend—and if so, would he mind having one more!"
"Huh?!"
Hearing this, everyone looked at her in shock.
"Hey, you new recruits!"
At this moment, an older Survey Corps veteran saw these recruits 'commenting' on Naruto and immediately shouted, "Hurry up and come help repair the wall!"
"Oh, coming!"
The new recruits quickly moved to help.
Then, the recruit named Reiner hesitated for a moment, pointed at Naruto—who was still guarding the breach alone—and asked, "Um… do we really not need to go over and help?"
"Heh!~"
The veteran smiled proudly upon hearing this and said with a sense of honor, "Of course not. That's Section Chief Naruto. Mere Titans are no different from poultry in front of him. We would only hold him back. Getting the wall repaired first is the real help."
Reiner heard this, and a hint of darkness flashed in his eyes.
He subtly exchanged a glance with another recruit named Bertholdt, then stopped speaking and began working diligently.
Whoosh!~
At that moment, a figure suddenly shot forward from a distance, activating his Three-Dimensional Maneuver Gear without hesitation. He flew through the breach and rushed straight outside, shouting:
"Damned Titans!"
"Eren, don't be reckless!"
Before anyone could react, another figure rushed after him, urgently calling out before also activating their gear and giving chase.
"It's Mikasa and Eren—those two idiots!"
The new recruits immediately recognized them and exchanged helpless looks.
The two who had just rushed out were also new recruits from the same class. The first to charge was Eren Yeager, ranked fifth among the graduating class; the one chasing after him was Mikasa Ackerman, ranked first.
"Hmm?"
Naruto had just finished eliminating the Titans near the wall when he sensed movement behind him.
Turning his head, he saw an enraged young man flying through the breach toward him, with a female soldier close behind.
At first, Naruto didn't pay much attention. But as the young man approached, he suddenly sensed a strange yet familiar aura from him.
It was a Titan's aura—and not that of an ordinary Titan.
It was an Intelligent Titan.
Naruto's figure flickered.
In an instant, he appeared in front of the young man, grabbed him by the neck, and slammed him to the ground.
"You—what are you doing?!"
Eren Yeager was momentarily stunned by the sudden attack. Then he glared at Naruto angrily and shouted, "Why are you attacking me?!"
Naruto remained silent, staring at him for a moment before calmly asking:
"Are you a Titan?"
"???"
Eren froze for a second, then struggled violently and shouted, "You're the Titan! Your whole family are Titans! Let go of me, you crazy bastard!"
"Be quiet."
Naruto applied pressure with his hand, knocking the struggling young man unconscious.
"Interesting…"
Naruto muttered to himself, "He doesn't know he has the power of a Titan?"
Naruto was certain this young man possessed Titan power. However, he didn't yet know in what form that power existed. Judging by his earlier reaction, the boy himself seemed completely unaware of it.
This was… interesting.
"Let go of Eren!"
At that moment, Mikasa Ackerman—who had caught up—kicked toward Naruto's arm, trying to force him to release Eren.
"Don't get in the way."
Naruto raised his hand and blocked the kick with the back of his hand. Then, with a swift motion, he grabbed her ankle, lifted her up, and slammed her to the ground, knocking her unconscious.
Although he didn't sense Titan power from this young woman, she clearly had a close relationship with the boy.
So he decided to capture her as well.
Naruto carried the two unconscious individuals back inside the wall.
Just as he was about to hand them over to his subordinates, he suddenly sensed two other unusual Titan auras.
His gaze shifted subtly toward their source.
