Esdeath was very obedient. Although Uchiha Madara had asked her to bring out another beautiful young girl, Esdeath, deeply aware that she could not and would not resist, went to do Uchiha Madara's bidding the very next day.
As the Empire's strongest general, was it a small matter for Esdeath to get a person?!
Even if the person desired was an Imperial Arms user, Esdeath's few words were enough to make the Imperial Assassination Squad not even dare to fart. They hurriedly brought out Kurome and handed her over to Esdeath.
Thus, Esdeath, carrying Kurome who was constantly eating snacks and still a bit confused, arrived at Uchiha Madara's estate.
When Esdeath brought Kurome before Uchiha Madara, Uchiha Madara couldn't help but scrutinize the Akame's younger sister.
Black hair, black eyes, pretty face, loli figure, clearly a petite girl.
Who knew, when being stared at by Uchiha Madara like this, Kurome's reaction was quite peculiar.
Kurome just pulled her snack bag closer, looking at Uchiha Madara warily, like a kitten protecting its food:
"What are you looking at!? I won't give you my cookies to eat!"
Instantly, Uchiha Madara, Esdeath, and Suigetsu were all covered in black lines.
Fortunately, Uchiha Madara had a considerable understanding of Kurome's habits. After an awkward moment, he signaled her to come closer.
Several servants brought out a large tray, almost the size of a table, piled high with snacks like a small mountain, placing it not far from Kurome.
Kurome was stunned at the time, her eyes sparkling as she looked at the pile of snacks, unable to tear her gaze away.
Walking over to Kurome, Uchiha Madara, with his old, profound cunning, spoke to Kurome:
"Kurome, want to eat?"
Kurome desperately nodded.
"If you want to eat, will you listen to me from now on?"
Kurome desperately nodded.
"You have to listen to everything I say!"
Kurome hesitated a bit now, gripping the snack bag in her hand, pacing back and forth. Seeing this, Uchiha Madara added another lure:
"If you follow me and are absolutely obedient, from now on, you can eat as many snacks as you want!"
Kurome's eyes lit up, and she nodded desperately.
Uchiha Madara nodded with great satisfaction, then waved his large hand and said:
"Alright, go on. All these snacks are yours!"
With a cheer, Kurome's eyes sparkled as she directly lunged forward and pounced on the pile of snacks, devouring them ravenously.
Watching Kurome like this, Esdeath walked up to Uchiha Madara, her eyes wide with surprise:
"There's also this type of Imperial Arms user. What do you want her for!?"
Uchiha Madara revealed a mysterious, unfathomable smile. Because he was afraid Kurome would hear, he whispered to Esdeath:
"Akame, the assassin most skilled in assassination within Night Raid, is her older sister. Back then,
Akame rebelled against the Empire, causing Kurome great psychological trauma. Starting with Kurome will be very helpful in subduing Akame!"
Esdeath nodded, suddenly realizing the truth.
After a while, when Kurome was almost at her happiest eating, Uchiha Madara walked over and leaned closer to Kurome:
"Kurome, are you happy eating?"
Chewing contentedly on snacks, Kurome nodded with a face full of smiles.
"Since that's the case, then you should absolutely listen to me, right?"
Kurome still nodded.
Given this, Uchiha Madara smiled, then continued to speak:
"Since that's the case, then Kurome, get along with your sister!"
Crack! As if a bolt of lightning had flashed through Kurome's body, hearing this, the moe little girl instantly stiffened all over. Her entire aura changed, becoming twisted and sinister, and a violent killing intent surged forth!
Seeing this sudden change, Esdeath's (aeeb) face stiffened. She subconsciously wanted to step forward and protect Uchiha Madara, but suddenly reacted and chuckled wryly. She saw Suigetsu beside her trembling from Akame's terrifying killing intent, but still didn't move forward to protect her.
The stiff Kurome slowly turned her head, her eyes filled with condensed, sinister killing intent, and this killing intent mercilessly pointed directly at Uchiha Madara.
Kurome spoke her second sentence since arriving here, and in her words, there was obvious anger:
"Impossible!"
Uchiha Madara was unmoved by Kurome's terrifying killing intent. He stood up and shook his head:
"As the saying goes, 'those who eat from others' hands have short mouths.' Kurome, you just now agreed to me!"
This made sense to some extent. Kurome calmed down a bit, looked at the remaining snacks, and her voice became much colder:
"Sorry, I think I want to renege. As for what I've eaten, I'll pay for it!"
With that, Kurome stood up and turned to leave, her expression firm and cold.
Watching Kurome's retreating figure, just as Kurome was about to walk out, Uchiha Madara called out with a chuckle:
"Kurome, you actually don't hate your sister. Love too much, hate too deeply. Even hate is born from love. The so-called betrayal of the Empire's ideals is merely an excuse.
You are because your sister abandoned you and left completely, which is why you consider it your sister's betrayal to you, turning love into hate."
Kurome's retreating figure stiffly stopped. She asked back, but didn't turn around:
"So what!?"
Uchiha Madara walked over and stood side by side with Kurome, looking at the scenery outside:
"My goal is to subdue all of Night Raid, and that of course includes your sister. As long as your sister submits to me, you will be able to reunite with your sister and fight for the same goal from now on. Why wouldn't you?"
Kurome's eyes trembled uncontrollably, and the surging killing intent on her body seemed to directly dissipate as if shattered.
As if a whole century had passed, Kurome turned to Uchiha Madara and said calmly:
"What do you want me to do?"
Uchiha Madara smiled:
"Nothing much. You just need to appear at the right time, advise, threaten, and even awaken your sister! But remember, what I want is a complete Akame. Do not, under any circumstances, accidentally go too far."
Taking a deep breath, Kurome's eyes regained their clarity:
"Okay! I agree! But... snacks must be enough!"
"Of course, the previous conditions stand!"
"Oh, right, your terrible body, which you're forcing to hold up with drugs, I'll heal it for you first!"
