"Marigold, let him try the naginata; that's the only way a stubborn man will understand." Sonia said in a low voice.
"However, I must warn you in advance that even Marigold needs to use high-intensity Armament Haki to cut through this ironwood."
In Sonia's eyes, Uchiha Kai was quite strong.
However, the proposed deal had already proven that he hadn't even mastered Armament Haki.
Given this major premise, there was no way Uchiha Kai would be able to cut through a tree stump with a material comparable to iron using brute force alone.
"Is that so? Then that's perfect for me to try!" Uchiha Kai said with a dry laugh, taking the naginata from Marigold.
Looking at the ironwood in front of him, the soul fire in his eyes surged violently.
Crackling lightning quickly spread over his body.
Lightning Release Chakra Mode!
The previous exchange had consumed a lot of the main body's chakra and the crossing-over usage time.
But it was more than enough to cut a piece of ironwood.
As the lightning was frantically poured into the naginata, a sharp, ear-piercing sound of air vibration suddenly rang out.
Feeling as if the naginata couldn't withstand this enormous lightning-attribute chakra, it let out a wail.
Uchiha Kai clenched his skeletal hands violently, and swung the naginata down on the ironwood.
Supersonic Vibration Lightning Release Blade!
This was a technique possessed by Killer B, the Eight-Tails' jinchuriki.
Pouring Lightning Release chakra into the blade to enhance its sharpness.
Using Lightning Release to generate high-frequency vibrations, giving it penetration power surpassing Wind Release.
In the original story, when Killer B fought Kisame, he used a pencil to pierce through a rock.
Pfft!
With one slash, the air stirred up large ripples, and the lightning-wrapped naginata instantly came crashing down.
Bang!
A dull collision sound echoed like thunder, and the tree, which took several people to encircle, was instantly split in two.
Witnessing this scene, Sandersonia and the others' pupils suddenly contracted, their faces filled with disbelief.
However, before they could ask any questions, the lightning-wrapped naginata in Uchiha Kai's hand suddenly paused, then quickly spun and danced like a swimming dragon.
The enormous ironwood, in Uchiha Kai's hands, was like tofu as he shaved off the outer layer.
By the time everyone reacted, the ironwood, which had taken several people to encircle, was only a tree core a little over a meter tall.
Uchiha Kai weighed it a couple of times, then revealed a satisfied expression.
"Alright, thanks for your naginata. If there's nothing else, help me prepare a place to stay; I still need to work on this thing."
Right now, Uchiha Kai was eager to increase his strength, and imitating a Staff of Ainz Ooal Gown was clearly a shortcut.
As for what rewards he could get, Uchiha Kai also had a glimmer of hope.
"Sandersonia, leave him to me; you go and report to Hancock first." Granny Nyon said, regaining her composure.
In Hancock's eyes, Granny Nyon received no respect.
However, Sandersonia and Marigold still quite respected this elder.
To some extent, she was still their Amazon Lily's strategist.
Sandersonia, after taking another look at Uchiha Kai, didn't linger any longer, turning around and leaving with Marigold.
With Hancock's return, the palace gates were quickly closed, the barriers were raised, and the entire country immediately entered a state of martial law.
However, the only difference this time was that Sandersonia and Marigold, who were guarding the gates, rushed to the bathroom.
"Sister, have you already started bathing and changing?" As soon as Sandersonia arrived at the bathroom, she saw a figure in the steam-filled pool.
This had never happened in the past ten years.
Every time Hancock bathed and changed, every step was indispensable.
Especially the gates, which had to be guarded by them.
However, now that something was out of the ordinary, there was bound to be a demon.
"Thank you for your hard work!" Hancock suddenly said, making Sandersonia and Marigold feel flattered.
"Sister, you're too kind, but what about that guy? He didn't use Armament Haki just now, yet he easily cut through the ironwood."
"Besides the Zoan-type Mythical Fruit ability, he also seems to know how to control lightning; he gives off a very mysterious feeling." Sandersonia explained urgently.
Hancock was silent for a moment, then said, "Let him come see me."
"Whether I believe it or not, you should also have the opportunity to try and erase your painful memories."
In front of outsiders, Hancock was the proud Empress, but she also had another side when facing her two younger sisters, on whom she depended for life.
"Hehe, it seems you're not heartless either."
Uchiha Kai's cold laughter suddenly rang out.
Hancock and the others' expressions changed drastically. Following the sound, what first entered their eyes was still Uchiha Kai in his skeletal form.
However, this time, Uchiha Kai had a staff entwined with seven golden vipers in his hand.
Each of the vipers' gaping mouths held a gem, giving a lifelike feeling.
They had been feeling uneasy and talking at the same time.
But because they were used to it, Hancock would use Observation Haki to be on full alert during her bath, and the two younger sisters were no exception.
It could be said that Uchiha Kai had been in the room they were monitoring just a moment ago.
Why he had suddenly appeared here without anyone noticing in the blink of an eye was truly beyond their expectations.
"Don't be nervous; I'm a pretty timid person, so while you were monitoring me with Observation Haki, I also used some tricks to keep an eye on your every move."
Uchiha Kai said with a smile, clenching the staff in his hand.
For the Ainz Ooal Gown character template, caution, care, and timidity were the most basic traits.
If Uchiha Kai wanted to improve the verisimilitude of the character template, this was absolutely essential.
Looking at Sandersonia and Marigold, who had a hint of anger on their faces, Uchiha Kai instead turned his gaze to Hancock, who was faintly visible in the steam.
"Don't be angry; haven't you decided to let me remove the Celestial Dragon's mark? To a doctor, the body is just fleeting clouds, beauty is just a pink skull, everything is empty!"
Uchiha Kai said with a smile again.
"Take off your clothes, all of you!"
"No, just take off your tops and show the Celestial Dragon's slave mark!"
Looking at Sandersonia and Marigold, whose appearances were so different from the Empress Hancock's.
Uchiha Kai really had a feeling that the two younger sisters were born to Old Wang next door; otherwise, they wouldn't be so different.
Hearing Uchiha Kai's somewhat excessive request, they would have already attacked in a rage if it were any other time.
But this time it was a deal, and Uchiha Kai's request didn't seem so excessive.
Thinking of this, Sandersonia and Marigold exchanged a look, then looked at Hancock.
"Take them off, both of you!"
