"Ahhhhhh!!"
As the highly corrosive fog spread throughout the entire hallway, a chorus of piercing screams filled the air.
It was the group of Dream Killers.
Around a dozen Dream Killers, their bodies decayed to the point where their skeletons were visible, stared furiously at Mei, their faces full of rage as they charged at her, ready to kill.
"Heh, all of you can die now."
Mei smirked coldly at the sight.
...
Meanwhile, in Iwagakure (Hidden Stone Village)
The village, which was usually peaceful, suddenly experienced a series of deaths among the villagers today. Even some Genin and Chunin were found dead.
According to eyewitness reports, strange and disgusting creatures appeared and attacked people, causing the deaths.
The Jonin immediately launched an investigation.
"Is this the creature that attacked the village? What kind of summoning beast is this?"
"I've never seen such a disgusting summoning beast before."
Two Jonin looked puzzled at the corpses of the humanoid monsters on the ground. They had never encountered creatures like these before.
"Whatever it is, daring to cause trouble in Iwagakure will come at a heavy cost!"
"Look over there!"
One of the Jonin spotted a humanoid creature dragging the corpse of a Genin towards a large warehouse, and they quickly gave chase.
Upon entering the warehouse, the Jonin swiftly killed the humanoid monster, but the captured Genin had already died.
This left them feeling deeply frustrated.
"Damned creatures! If there are more of them, I'll wipe them all out!"
One Jonin slammed his fist into his palm, seething with killing intent.
"Look, what's that?"
The other Jonin noticed something unusual and went to investigate. They found over a hundred large, unfamiliar eggs.
"Are these the eggs of those monsters?"
"Damn it! They're trying to reproduce here! Die!"
The two Jonin unleashed powerful jutsus, creating a series of explosions.
Confident in their strength, they believed that the eggshells would be too fragile to withstand their attacks, so they turned and left without checking.
Crack!
Raaaahhhh!
The sound of breaking eggshells and the cries of monsters reached their ears. They turned around to see over a hundred humanoid creatures, each about 1.2 meters tall, slowly emerging from the shattered eggs.
Their pitch-black eyes locked onto the two Jonin.
What happened next was unbelievable. The humanoid creatures formed hand signs and unleashed a variety of jutsus, attacking the Jonin!
"What?!"
The Jonin were shocked and quickly retreated. As they reached the doorway, they suddenly felt something behind them. Turning around, they saw over a hundred humanoid creatures, each standing two meters tall, staring at them menacingly.
"Ahhhhhhh!!!"
The crisis in Iwagakure was just beginning, and it would soon threaten the safety of their entire world.

In the One Piece World, at Marine Headquarters
Boom! Boom!
At Marine Headquarters, Garp and Sengoku were leading the charge against the Visual Phantoms.
Only after engaging them did they realize how troublesome these creatures were, with their incredible speed.
Moreover, when using Observation Haki to sense them, the Visual Phantoms could somehow predict their thoughts and move preemptively.
Even Marines with considerable speed found it impossible to catch the Visual Phantoms due to this foresight.
"Die!"
After a long struggle, only Garp and Sengoku managed to kill five Visual Phantoms, but at the cost of further destruction to Marine Headquarters.
"Hey, Sengoku, do you think the Gorosei will scold us if we tear down the whole Marine Headquarters?"
Garp clenched his fists, looking eager to fight.
"Hey! Don't even think about using the full power of the Ox Talisman to destroy Marine Headquarters!"
Sengoku immediately saw through Garp's intentions and quickly stopped him.
Garp shrugged, disappointed, and looked around.
"But seriously, this is a real headache."
It was rare to see Garp so serious. Although the attacks of the Visual Phantoms didn't faze him, their speed and perception abilities were incredibly troublesome.
He originally wanted to lure the Visual Phantoms to an open area for a large-scale attack.
But the problem was that the Celestial Dragons lived nearby, and such a move would affect them. This left Garp feeling frustrated.
"Damn it!"
The more Garp thought about it, the angrier he became. Ignoring the consequences, he decided to chase after the Visual Phantoms by any means necessary.
The next moment, Marine Headquarters shook even more violently, riddled with even more holes.
Sengoku's face darkened with anger.
...
In the DC Universe
Humanoid monsters had already begun wreaking havoc in Gotham City.
Not long after their appearance, they devoured several humans, rapidly reproducing.
The police quickly mobilized to combat the monsters, but regular firearms had little effect on them.
Adding to the chaos, criminals took advantage of the situation, further worsening the crisis.
Pew! Pew! Pew!
Just as the citizens of Gotham fell into a state of panic, beams of light descended from the sky, accurately piercing through the humanoid monsters in a section of the city.
People, who had been gripped by fear, looked up in confusion.
Standing on top of a skyscraper was Wonder Woman. With a shield strapped to her right arm, the Sword of Vulcan in her left hand, and the Sword of Promised Victory in her right, she gazed down heroically, like a goddess descending to Earth.
"Thanks, Lucius. Your satellite scans are really helpful."
Diana, wearing a pair of high-tech sunglasses, scanned the surroundings. These glasses, a product of Wayne Enterprises, were linked to a satellite that could detect humanoid monsters hidden anywhere.
In Wayne Tower, Lucius Fox was operating the computer, maintaining the satellite scan.
"No problem, but I never expected Bruce's new girlfriend to be this strong."
Lucius couldn't hide the shock in his heart.
Earlier that night, Diana had barged into his home, informed him of an alien species invasion, and even revealed Wayne's secret identity as Batman as a gesture of trust.
Though skeptical, Lucius reluctantly agreed to help, and the situation proved to be true—strange creatures were attacking Gotham.
Now, all Lucius could do was use the satellite to scan for humanoid monsters and provide Diana with their locations.
"Can you find their eggs?"
Diana inquired.
"I've studied the egg you gave me. To locate them, we'd need to catch the heat spike just before they hatch; otherwise, they're nearly undetectable."
"That's better than nothing."
Diana continued rushing toward the next location where the humanoid monsters had appeared, taking down criminals and Mimics in the shadows along the way.
According to the satellite scan, the number of humanoid monsters had reached an alarming level. It was unclear whether so many had invaded from the start or if they had reproduced.
"The light energy of this sword can do many unexpected things, saving me a lot of trouble. Let's test it out."
With eyes full of battle spirit, Diana raised the gleaming Sword of Promised Victory.
