Salome and Dora, their emotions soothed by the Empress, were led back to the harbor by her second sister, Sandersonia.

Before leaving, the two serpents still raised their heads and hissed incessantly.

They were just like two children who had been wronged.

"Let's go!"

The Empress didn't waste words, preparing to lead the Kuja Tribe's female warriors away.

The person across from her with that disgusting smile made her not want to stay here a single moment longer.

Sure enough, men were no good!

"Hey, Empress, please wait. I have a third exchange to offer. Interested in hearing it?"

Seeing the Empress and her group about to leave, Yoru quickly called out to stop them.

No way—he hadn't yet achieved his biggest goal in coming to Kuja Island.

"Not interested."

The Empress didn't even glance at Yoru. Whatever this man said, she didn't want to hear it.

"Better listen anyway. Otherwise, I'm afraid those two little darlings you keep might get bullied by the big fellows in the surrounding seas."

"You dare threaten I? Don't you know that I am the most beautiful woman in the world?"

Silence~

Watching the Empress, who had her left hand on her hip and leaned back to an exaggerated degree.

The Uchiha Camp was dead silent.

A second time—that terrifyingly strong woman across from them had said such shameful words and made such bizarre moves for the second time?!

Did she really not see anything wrong with doing that?

Itachi turned his head in confusion to look at Big Brother. He had just arrived and wasn't clear on the situation.

He was already starting to suspect that Big Brother was bullying an idiot.

Just as he thought that, a cheer erupted from the crowd across from them!

Accompanied by shouts like "The Empress is the most beautiful!" "The Empress is invincibly cute!" "I would die for the Empress!"

Itachi confirmed it.

Big Brother was bullying a bunch of idiots.

"I heard the Navy has developed Seastone Technology, allowing warships to freely enter and leave the Calm Belt. They've even approached Kuja Island to threaten you. If you can tolerate that, I can't!!"

"You looking to die?"

Watching Yoru's clumsy provocation, the Empress felt her patience had reached its limit.

"I can ensure Kuja Island is no longer threatened by Navy warships. From now on, no one will dare approach Kuja Island. Interested in that condition?"

"Not interested."

The Empress tilted her head, looking down at Yoru from the corner of her eye.

"Let's hear it. Hear what they want first before refusing—it won't be too late."

Granny Niu, who had been flung away by the Empress earlier, had somehow run back again.

She stood beside the Empress, offering advice.

"Simple. The Uchiha Clan and the Kuja Tribe are both warrior peoples, so we hope to learn more combat techniques.

We'll take responsibility for the safety of the waters around Kuja Island, ensuring even the Navy can't approach it.

In exchange, you teach our people the use of Armament Haki. How about that?"

Yoru slowly stated his third exchange offer.

"Pah~ You little brat sure think big."

Before the Empress could speak, Granny Niu, upon hearing this so-called exchange offer, was already so angry she laughed. Pointing at Yoru's nose, she cursed:

"Do you take us for fools? So-called responsibility for the safety of Kuja Island's waters means using that ability of yours to control the Sea Kings, right.

If the nearby Sea Kings are all under your control, doesn't that mean Kuja Island's safety rests entirely on your whim?

Empress, kick this brat to pieces! This guy has bad intentions!"

Granny Niu raised her cane and pointed it at Yoru, striking a pose as if she were about to charge forward at any moment.

Yoru, of course, saw through Granny Niu's bluff. He could only wave his hand helplessly:

"Alright, alright. To show sincerity, let's change the exchange terms.

You teach us Haki, and we teach your people how to control Sea Kings. How about that?"

"Little brat, are you serious?"

Granny Niu's eyes lit up at this exchange.

If they could truly control the Sea Kings, then Kuja Island would never be threatened by anyone again.

From now on, even ordinary tribespeople could go out and see the outside world whenever they wished.

"This deal—no problem, agree to it."

Granny Niu shot the Empress a meaningful glance.

After all, Armament Haki wasn't exactly a rare commodity. In the second half of the Grand Line, while not everyone could use it, it was still a fairly common skill.

Even if they sincerely wanted to teach, whether someone could learn it still depended on their own aptitude.

This deal was a steal!

Yoru was also calculating in his mind.

He certainly wouldn't tell the Empress that to control creatures on the level of Sea Kings, it would likely require nothing less than the Eye Power of the Uchiha Mangekyo.

He planned to only teach the Kuja Tribe some illusions like the Golden Binding Technique.

This was one of the few practical illusions that didn't require the Sharingan to use.

Also known as the Paralysis Jutsu, its effect could render an enemy unable to move.

Though classified as only a D-rank ninjutsu, its effectiveness was excellent.

As for what would happen when the Kuja Tribe's warriors discovered that even after mastering it, they couldn't control creatures, only freeze them in place?

Don't ask—ask, and the answer would be that their ability wasn't enough, and they needed to keep training.

The master leads you through the door; cultivation depends on the individual. Don't you understand that principle?

"Don't you know Haki yourself? Can't you teach it yourself?"

Though the Empress also felt this deal was fairly advantageous, she still didn't trust the other party's character.

The fact that he had used her beloved snake to threaten them said it all.

This guy was absolutely a scumbag-level character. Would someone like that kindly hand over a method to control Sea Kings?

Facing the Empress's questioning, Uchiha Yoru's smile didn't waver. He spread his hands, his tone carrying a hint of just the right amount of helplessness:

"Empress, my crude application of Haki is nothing more than a few scraps I stumbled upon by chance—no system to speak of.

It's fine for my own use, but to systematically teach the tribe, I'm truly out of my depth.

Every warrior of the Kuja Tribe knows Haki, so you must have your own set of training methods. My people are in great need of those."

Yoru's words were absolutely sincere.

His left Mangekyo eye ability was "Amenomikado," which could break through spatial barriers and open [Dimension Gates] connecting different dimensions and planes, allowing free traversal.

His right eye ability was "Earthly Covenant Seal," which actively attuned to the fundamental laws of the world he arrived in, quickly analyzing the core power system of that world.

In plain terms, Yoru's Armament Haki had appeared out of thin air.

It wasn't something he had cultivated himself.

The first time he came alone to Kuja Island, after secretly watching the Kuja Tribe's warriors use Armament Haki, his body had naturally learned it.

So Yoru himself knew Haki, but if someone had asked him back then to teach the Uchiha clan how to train in Armament Haki, he couldn't have done it even if they killed him.

Granny Niu narrowed her eyes from the side, sizing up Uchiha Yoru, as if judging the sincerity in his words.

Having lived most of her life, she had seen all kinds of people. This young man before her, though cunning, didn't seem to be lying at this moment.

"I disagree!"

Hancock tilted her chin slightly, glancing at Yoru from the corner of her eye.

Maybe what he said was true.

But given his earlier despicable act of controlling Salome and Dora, she would not agree to this deal!
