Denjiro immediately said loudly, "That Witness of History's position is unclear.
His purpose in seeking your soul is probably to control Wano Country!
You absolutely must not agree!
I think I understand why all of his subordinates hold such high positions now.
They're either a Princess or a queen.
So that's it.
He wants to use this method to control the entire world!
His ambition is truly immense!
We absolutely cannot agree!"
"But..."
Hiyori furrowed her brows at his words.
"If he really wants to control Wano Country,
he could simply take my brother's soul!
After all, my brother is the next shogun!"
"This..."
Denjiro was stunned by her words.
This question
had genuinely left him unable to think of an answer for a moment.
"Perhaps he thinks Lord Momonosuke is too young,
so he wants to put you in power?"
By then,
Lord Momonosuke would be the shogun in name,
but merely a puppet.
And you would become the one truly at the helm?
No!
Rather, that Witness of History would become the true master of Wano Country!"
"I don't think so..."
Hiyori shook her head.
Although she felt that there was some truth to what Denjiro had said,
still,
she sensed that something was wrong.
"That Witness of History has no need to go through all that trouble to control me.
He could control my brother directly,
then kill us.
Wouldn't that be much simpler?"
"Uh..."
Denjiro did not know what to say for a moment.
Because Hiyori's words were indeed very reasonable.
Controlling Momonosuke directly,
then eliminating the unnecessary people—
that truly would be an extremely easy and simple solution.
It would also be the best choice.
"Then,
what does he actually want?"
Denjiro fell into deep thought.
Hiyori also fell into deep thought.
Neither of them
