Capítulo 183: Chapter 183: Taking Control of the Land of Demons
"You disagree?"
Hearing Konan's words, both Shishou and Nagato were taken aback.
Neither of them expected her to disagree.
From their perspective, Konan should have been the one most eager for the exchange.
"Nagato, come with me for a moment."
Glancing at Shishou, Konan flew to the side, and Nagato followed her.
Once Nagato established a soundproof barrier with his gravitational field, Konan shared her suspicions:
"Nagato, his strength has already reached the pinnacle of the ninja world, yet it has continued to grow significantly over the past month or two."
"This indicates that he is not content with his current power and is still finding ways to enhance his strength."
"If he is now asking for the chakra of the Four-Tails and Five-Tails, it must be related to his future power growth."
"So, we absolutely cannot let the Four-Tails and Five-Tails fall into his hands, nor can we lend him their chakra."
"If his strength continues to grow, you will still be unable to defeat him next time."
"And then, won't I still end up in his hands?"
Nagato, hearing this, suddenly understood. He looked at Konan and said:
"What about you? I don't feel comfortable with you staying by his side."
Konan shook her head and continued:
"Although my strength cannot match yours, as long as I'm cautious, using my Paper Dance to escape is not an issue."
"Moreover, by staying with him, I can prevent Akatsuki members from clashing with him, as happened last time."
Nagato fell silent upon hearing this.
On the other side, Shishou, who had heard their conversation through the nano-sized insects on Konan, rolled his eyes.
He hadn't expected Konan to be so clever, accurately guessing his intentions, which was quite bothersome.
"Konan disagrees, so the exchange is off."
After their discussion, Nagato dismissed the sound barrier and looked at Shishou from a distance.
He then left the area.
Konan, meanwhile, approached Shishou and stared at him expressionlessly.
She had just thwarted his plan and was unsure if he would make things difficult for her in the future.
"Impressive, Konan. I didn't expect you to be so clever and directly guess my intentions. Well done."
Shishou genuinely praised her as he looked at her beautiful face.
"Hmph!" Konan snorted coldly, still expressionless, though inwardly pleased.
"Since you don't want to exchange, let's go."
"From now on, make sure to behave."
With that, Shishou extended his right hand to Konan, inviting her for a Flying Thunder God teleportation.
Konan pursed her lips and placed her hand on Shishou.
In the next instant, the scene changed rapidly, and the two of them arrived in the capital of the Land of Fire.
"Why are we here?"
Looking at the bustling streets around her, Konan asked coldly.
"I think you'd make a good secretary, so from now on, you'll be my secretary."
"And the first task of a secretary is, of course, to buy a uniform."
"You can't just walk around in Akatsuki robes, can you?"
Laughing lightly, Shishou walked towards a high-end clothing store on the commercial street.
I'm not angry, I'm not angry...
Suppressing her anger, Konan bit her lip and slowly followed Shishou.
Half an hour later.
"Wow, you look beautiful in that outfit."
The store clerk praised Konan, who was wearing a black, fitted office lady outfit.
Shishou, standing nearby, also gave her a thumbs up.
Konan's exquisite features, cold demeanor, and slender figure made her look like a formidable businesswoman in the office attire.
"Hmph!" Konan snorted coldly, not wanting to acknowledge Shishou.
"Let's go. It's time to get to work."
After paying, Shishou led Konan out of the capital of the Land of Fire and headed to the capital of the Land of Demons.
"Your task is simple: kill the daimyo of the Land of Demons and severely cripple the ninja forces of the royal palace."
"If you succeed, I can double your chakra as a reward."
Noticing Konan's discomfort in her office attire, Shishou began to issue her mission.
His fertilizer research in Fire Source City had made preliminary progress and was starting to be produced. However, the promotion of it was encountering obstacles.
He had initially thought that with the high esteem in which Miko Miroku was held in the Land of Demons, the promotion should go smoothly. However, the new daimyo of the Land of Demons had obstructed it.
The reason for the obstruction was simple: the new daimyo had taken a liking to Miko Miroku and was using this to exert pressure.
So, Shishou's purpose for coming to the Land of Demons was straightforward.
He intended to abolish the daimyo system and have Miko Miroku rule the Land of Demons.
Anyone daring to covet his woman was as good as dead.
Double my chakra!!!
Hearing Shishou's words, Konan was startled.
"I understand. I will complete the task you assigned."
With that, Konan flew towards the royal palace of the Land of Demons.
Faced with the temptation of doubling her chakra, no one could resist.
Watching Konan leave, Shishou smiled.
He had three objectives in giving Konan this task.
First, to kill the daimyo and have Miko Miroku take control of the Land of Demons, facilitating the subsequent promotion of his fertilizer.
Second, to use the promise of doubling her chakra to encourage Konan to follow his orders, while also creating an opportunity to strengthen their relationship during the chakra enhancement process.
Third, to have Konan manage the promotion of the fertilizer, freeing him to focus on his own matters.
He believed that Konan, who had always fought for the common people, would not refuse once she understood his purpose.
Two hours later, Konan had successfully killed the daimyo and crippled the defending forces.
Her Paper Dance and explosive tags were unparalleled in large-scale attacks.
Under Shishou's hypnotic influence using the Mangekyo Sharingan, the remaining leaders of the Land of Demons began to seek help from Miko Miroku.
Before long, Miko Miroku, accompanied by Uzumaki Eri, arrived on the red-armored centipede.
Under Shishou's guidance, Konan began to 'retreat' in the face of Miko Miroku's attack, eventually being 'killed.'
Shishou took this opportunity to use his Mangekyo Sharingan to guide the nobles of the Land of Demons, urging them to have Miko Miroku temporarily replace the daimyo.
In just over half a month, with the help of Shishou and Konan, Miko Miroku implemented a theocratic system, consolidating her control over the Land of Demons.
Initially, the nobles were reluctant to accept the divine mandate, but once they realized their power had increased, they became staunch supporters of the new system.
Under this theocracy, the daimyo system was abolished, and Miko became the supreme ruler of the Land of Demons, holding ultimate power.
All actual governance and daily affairs were handled by the ministers, but Miko retained the right to dismiss them at any time.
Following this, Shishou's fertilizer industry, with Miko Miroku's assistance, began to spread rapidly in the Land of Demons.
With April and May being prime growing seasons, it was the perfect time to promote the fertilizer.
Konan, who had been following Shishou, was perplexed by his actions, as they seemed solely focused on promoting fertilizer.
Eventually, she confronted Shishou and voiced her confusion.
"Why are you going to such lengths? What are you trying to achieve?"
