Chapitre 291: Chapter 291: The Shifting Balance of Power...
Shishou carefully removed Yugito from himself.
After using the Chakra Bugs to check on Tsunade and the others, he turned to the masked women and said, "I'll send you back first. I'll come find you later."
Sensing the looks from the women and recalling past experiences, Shishou knew he would likely have to fly around the ninja world putting out fires.
Of course, with Uzumaki Eri as his secret weapon, Shishou could easily overwhelm Tsunade and the others, ensuring a swift victory.
However, Shishou's primary focus now was to completely deal with the remains of the White Snake Sage in Ryuchi Cave.
"Alright."
Hearing Shishou, Tsunade and Mei Terumi nodded, understanding he had urgent matters to attend to.
Shishou created several clones to send the women back to their respective locations.
After addressing the women, Shishou approached Konan, who was standing nearby, and smiled at her, "Give me your hand."
"You just want to take advantage of me!" Konan said, but obediently extended her hand to Shishou.
She was used to Shishou finding various reasons to hold her hand, so she didn't mind this time either.
Although she didn't mind Shishou's advances, Konan would never admit defeat verbally.
After all, maintaining a moral high ground was important, otherwise others might take it from you...
Seeing Konan willingly offer her hand, Shishou decided to tease her, "I'm checking to see if the White Snake Sage left any marks on you."
"Her reincarnation technique is very powerful, and if you're not careful, she could possess you."
Hearing Shishou's explanation, Konan's breath hitched, and a rare look of fear appeared on her usually calm face.
Konan grabbed Shishou's hand urgently, "Then hurry and check me!"
Konan didn't want to wake up one day and find out that the White Snake Sage was sharing her body.
Such a terrifying scenario would drive her crazy.
Seeing Konan's vivid expression, Shishou raised an eyebrow.
Then he lifted his other hand towards Konan.
This time, Konan didn't wait for Shishou to speak and immediately placed her other hand in his.
Holding Konan's hands, Shishou stopped teasing her and began using the Chakra Bugs to thoroughly check her body.
Once he confirmed that there were no issues within Konan's body, Shishou released one of her hands.
"All clear, no problems."
Hearing Shishou's words, Konan sighed in relief.
The surroundings changed rapidly, and before Konan realized it, she found herself back in the palace of the Daimyo of the Land of Demons.
Seeing Shishou release her hand and prepare to leave, Konan grabbed his hand.
"Is there something else, Konan?" Shishou asked, puzzled.
He needed to return to Ryuchi Cave to deal with the remains of the White Snake Sage and didn't have time to linger.
If not for that, he wouldn't mind letting Konan hold on for a bit longer.
Under Shishou's direct gaze, Konan blushed and said, "Don't forget what you promised me a few days ago."
Seeing she was referring to helping her increase her chakra and train in Sage Jutsu, Shishou nodded, "Don't worry, I'll help you in a few days."
His entire breeding operation depended on Konan's management, so he couldn't afford to upset her over such a minor matter.
Shishou tried to pull his hand free, but Konan held on tightly.
Perplexed, Shishou looked at Konan, who blushed and hesitated before saying, "How can I become as strong as the other women around you?"
In the recent battle with the White Snake Sage, Konan was more shocked by the strength displayed by Hyuga Rimei and Kushina than by Shishou's own power.
The abilities of these women far surpassed those of the Kage from the Five Great Ninja Villages.
Even in the Akatsuki, they could easily overpower most members.
Hyuga Rimei's combat prowess seemed to rival Nagato's.
And there was another woman with similar abilities beside Shishou!
Apart from these two, the other women around Shishou were equally powerful, most capable of entering Sage Mode.
Even Priestess Miroku, who couldn't enter Sage Mode, wielded incredibly powerful sealing techniques.
At the very least, she was much stronger than Konan at the moment.
If only one person around Shishou had such immense power, Konan might consider it a coincidence.
But with so many powerful women around him, and none of them opposing each other, there was only one plausible explanation.
These women had become so strong because of Shishou!
Based on this assumption, Konan, who desired to become stronger, held onto Shishou and asked the question that had been on her mind for a long time.
Hearing Konan's question, Shishou narrowed his eyes.
He suddenly realized this might be the perfect opportunity to win Konan over.
He no longer felt the urgency to return to Ryuchi Cave and instead looked at Konan with a leisurely smile, "How to become stronger?"
"You already know the answer to that, don't you? So why ask?"
After saying this, Shishou watched Konan closely to see her reaction.
Hearing Shishou's words, Konan's face turned bright red as her thoughts were exposed, and she quickly let go of his hand.
How could she gain the same power as the women around Shishou?
The answer was to become one of Shishou's women.
Konan had suspected this based on Shishou's different treatment of Priestess Miroku, Uzumaki Eri, and herself.
In the past two years, Priestess Miroku and Uzumaki Eri had mostly withdrawn from company affairs to focus on Sage Jutsu training and sealing techniques, improving their strength.
Meanwhile, Konan had been burdened with various tasks, causing her strength to decline slightly.
It was clear that this was Shishou's doing.
Konan opened her mouth and asked Shishou, "Is this really the only way you'll help me become stronger?"
"Of course," Shishou replied, looking her in the eyes with certainty.
After saying this, Shishou disappeared.
Previously, he had to find ways to get closer to Konan.
But now... the balance of power had shifted!
Seeing Shishou disappear, Konan bit her lip and returned to her palace.
Lying on her bed, she replayed the battle scenes in her mind, thinking about the confident and powerful women around Shishou.
After a while, she went to her wardrobe and pulled out a professional dress...
