Zhu Zhuqing Was About to Turn Dark and Join the Akatsuki Organization, Kill Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ning Rongrong (Part 1)

"Make them kill each other from within? That really is a good approach..."

Konan glanced at Ye Chen and more or less understood what he was thinking. She continued.

"Just like the members of those organizations we controlled in the Ninja World. Although we could defeat them, if we could not truly win them over from the heart, they would not willingly serve us... I believe that as long as the Zhu Zhuqing you mentioned feels that the world we want to create is also the world of her ideals, she will definitely follow us and eliminate dissenters for us..."

"Mm... mm, you're right, Konan. That's what I was thinking too."

Ye Chen nodded repeatedly. In truth, he did not really understand what Konan was saying, but thinking of how so many organizations in Naruto had been loyal to Akatsuki, Konan and Nagato must have possessed profound methods and ideas. He could tell just from these words.

Konan had genuinely come from the Ninja World, while Ye Chen was merely an impostor. So he kept silent at this moment, lest he expose himself.

Seeing Zhu Zhuqing continue down the road, Ye Chen quickly said to Konan.

"I'll follow Zhu Zhuqing and find out where she and the rest of the Shrek Seven Monsters are hiding... Take Pain and find any hotel to settle down in. I'll come find you later. I share Pain's vision, so as long as you have him with you, I can find you no matter where you are."

"Alright... go on."

Konan nodded. Once Ye Chen got out of the carriage, she drove away with it.

Watching Zhu Zhuqing's curvy, sexy back, Ye Chen quietly activated his Rinnegan. He considered how to awaken the hatred in Zhu Zhuqing's heart, make her join the Akatsuki Organization, and have her help kill Tang San, Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ning Rongrong...

Yes, even Ning Rongrong had to die, because Ye Chen had no interest in her.

And if the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect refused to obey, it would have to be destroyed sooner or later anyway.

There were many people on this street, and Ye Chen kept a considerable distance while following her, so Zhu Zhuqing did not notice him at all. Carrying the herbs she had bought, she eventually stopped before an inn with a sign that read Strength Clan, then carefully walked inside.

Only after Zhu Zhuqing entered did Ye Chen approach the inn. He discovered that this truly was an inn once opened here by the Strength Clan. Now that the Strength Clan had joined the Tang Sect, it was no wonder the Shrek Seven Monsters were staying here.

Ye Chen raised his head toward the third floor of the inn and quietly activated his Rinnegan.

In an instant, his sight, hearing... and all five senses were greatly enhanced.

With the Rinnegan's perception ability activated, Ye Chen's gaze passed through the walls and windows. He saw Tang San cultivating in the room on the left, then Ma Hongjun recuperating from his injuries in another room, and Dai Mubai, whose leg was already crippled and whose entire body was wrapped in bandages.

Zhu Zhuqing, dressed in black leather, went up to the third floor and entered Dai Mubai's room, where she began applying medicine to his injured face.

Worried about being discovered, Ye Chen immediately went to a concealed teahouse nearby. Pretending to drink tea, he used his Rinnegan to observe the Shrek Seven Monsters' movements.

With the power of Ye Chen's Eternal Rinnegan, secretly observing the Shrek Seven Monsters was naturally effortless. Tang San's Purple Demon Eyes had not yet reached the Vast Expanse Realm and could not detect him at all.

Then Ye Chen saw Tang San enter Dai Mubai's room as well. He told Zhu Zhuqing to rest and applied medicine to Dai Mubai himself. He also took several more herbs from Twenty-Four Bridges Bright Moon Night, mixed them together, and carefully applied them to Dai Mubai's crippled leg.

"Third Brother... slower, ah..."

Toward the end, Dai Mubai could not help crying out. He truly looked like a pathetic coward.

Having confirmed where the Shrek Seven Monsters were staying, Ye Chen quietly left as dusk approached.

It seemed that Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai were still seriously injured. They probably would not leave this place anytime soon, much less head for Sea God Island.

Not every injury could be treated by Oscar's Healing Sausage. His Healing Sausage merely enhanced the body's recovery ability. Whether it was injuries caused by the Split Hound or internal damage inflicted by the Six Paths of Pain using Black Rods, neither could be healed through recovery ability alone.

Through his shared vision with the Deva Path of Pain, Ye Chen saw Konan take Pain to a hotel on the southern side of Jinshui City, so he headed there as well.

But while he was on the way, the system's voice suddenly rang out in Ye Chen's mind.

"Ding... Congratulations, Host, for successfully recruiting Konan and gaining her complete loyalty. She is willing to serve the organization. The system rewards the Host with 10,000 Reputation Points. Reputation Points can be used in the shop to exchange for rewards and purchase items. Host, please go take a look..."

"What? Reputation Points..."

Ye Chen's heart stirred, and he quickly asked.

"What are Reputation Points? How can I obtain them..."

The system replied in his mind.

"As long as the Host successfully accumulates a certain level of prestige on the continent, making the strong fear you and more people dread you... or recruits new members, the Host can obtain a certain amount of Reputation Points. Reputation Points accumulated by either the Host or the Six Paths of Pain are shared. In addition, the Host can make more members of the opposite sex fall in love with you to obtain Affection Points. Affection Points can also be used in the shop to exchange for specific rewards."

"Reputation Points, Affection Points... both can be exchanged for rewards and items. Not bad, not bad. I'm liking this journey after transmigrating more and more."

Ye Chen thought to himself and immediately opened his personal attributes interface.

Sure enough, he saw his Reputation Points and Affection Points this time.

Reputation Points: 10,000. Affection Points: 30.

"There are actually 30 Affection Points. Could they be from Konan? Forget it, whatever... Let's look at the shop first."

Then Ye Chen opened the System Shop.

What appeared in his mind was a dazzling assortment of rewards and items.

There were all kinds of ninjutsu, forbidden techniques, game skills he had played in his previous life, luxury cars, firearms, and various superpowers from X-Men.

In short, as long as one had enough Reputation Points and Affection Points, nearly anything could be exchanged for in this shop.

The System Shop not only had clear categories for all kinds of rewards, but also allowed users to freely search for the items and rewards they wanted, such as motorcycles, fighter jets, tanks, and even nuclear weapons.

Of course, those items required a great deal of Reputation Points to exchange for.

After looking around for a while, Ye Chen found that most rewards and items in the System Shop required Reputation Points. Only a small number of rewards and skills meant for picking up girls or showing off could be exchanged with Affection Points.

"Still, taken as a whole, these rewards are really pretty good. Great..."

Ye Chen could not help praising it inwardly.

This gave him even more motivation to make the Akatsuki Organization gain greater prestige—to make the strong fear it, the weak dread it... and make the Divine Realm tremble.

Then Ye Chen began browsing through the shop.

"As-You-Wish Transformation Technique: 500 Reputation Points."

Ye Chen read the description of this ninjutsu, and his eyes immediately lit up.

It turned out to be an upgraded version of the Transformation Technique. After learning it, there was no need to form hand seals. He could transform anytime, anywhere, however he wished. He could even make his clones transform, and under the condition of using the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, he could carry out transformations on a massive scale.

After reading the description, Ye Chen hesitated no longer. He directly spent 500 Reputation Points to exchange for this ninjutsu.
