"Mmm, is Yusei going to go in my place?"
A still somewhat dazed Kaguya, nestled under the covers, peeked at Yusei.
"Of course."
Patting Kaguya's forehead, Yusei smiled.
Originally, he hadn't wanted to play around with those weaklings this time, but now it was a good opportunity to try out his new abilities anyway.
The new abilities naturally referred to the Six Paths Puppets.
As for the choice of vessels, Yusei actually already had an answer.
In the Naruto, Nagato used corpses and installed black rod signal receivers in them because Ninjas were relatively powerful, and it was too effort-consuming to control living people.
Controlling the dead was simpler.
But in this ordinary world, using an ordinary person's body, one only needed to install a black rod signal receiver, and not too many, to directly control a living person.
However, the target couldn't have too strong a will to resist, otherwise the control difficulty would increase.
These were some conclusions Yusei had drawn from his research on the Rinnegan.
As for the black pipes inserted into Nagato's back, sucking life force from the Gedo Statue, that was because the Rinnegan wasn't originally his, so using the Rinnegan required massive amounts of Chakra.
Yusei didn't need to worry about that. His Rinnegan was gradually upgraded by the system; he didn't need to absorb vast amounts of energy as fuel to drive it.
But there was one problem now: he hadn't yet chosen the candidates for his Six Paths Puppets.
It was a natural issue. The one being controlled couldn't have a strong will to resist. They could have consciousness, but they couldn't resist, as they needed to empty their mind and body to accept the control.
In Japan, there were many, many pitiful people, the kind who couldn't go on living and could only commit suicide.
But for Yusei to suddenly go looking for them right now would be difficult.
Thinking about it, Yusei turned his gaze to Hayasaka, who was currently feeding Kaguya her medicine.
Hayasaka, who was carefully attending to Kaguya, suddenly felt a chill down her spine. She looked back to see her young master's gaze fixed intently on her. Those 'colored contacts' were somewhat mesmerizing.
That's right, she thought Yusei was being Chuunibyou and wearing colored contacts, and hadn't looked into the matter deeply.
Yusei beckoned to Hayasaka with a 'kind' smile, "Ai-chan, come here."
Hayasaka hesitated slightly. She glanced at Kaguya, who had just taken her medicine and lain down to sleep, and said weakly, "Yusei-sama... really, here?"
"Of course, time waits for no one." Yusei urged Hayasaka to come over quickly.
Hayasaka was inwardly shy, but bound by Yusei's order, she tremblingly began to undo the collar of her clothes.
Before Yusei could react, she had already undone her top. Yusei hurriedly stopped her.
"What are you doing?"
Hayasaka was taken aback, looking at Yusei in confusion, "Yusei-sama, didn't you want to... vent on me here?"
"..."
"I never said that... Forget it, put your clothes back on properly. Then take off your earrings and put these on instead." Yusei took out two small black ear accessories.
Nagato needed to install 'signal receivers' all over his targets' bodies because controlling the Rinnegan was extremely strenuous for him. But Yusei's Rinnegan was his own ability, so he didn't need the black rods.
In fact, a black rod the size of an ear accessory would suffice.
Once Hayasaka had put on the ear accessories, Yusei smiled and held a mirror in front of her, "See how it looks?"
Hayasaka looked at her reflection. The black ear accessories were small and exquisite. Although pitch black, they had a pleasing shape.
Paired with her, they did give off a nice vibe and looked quite good.
"Thank you for the gift, Yusei-sama." Hayasaka Ai bowed in thanks.
"You should show your oppai when giving thanks."
"..."
Yusei waved his hand and laughed, "Just kidding. Alright, next, empty your mind. I'm going to control your body. No matter what happens, don't resist."
Before Hayasaka could understand what was happening, she felt an irresistible force enter her body. She found herself completely unable to control her own body.
In an instant, it was as if she had become an observer, viewing things from a god's perspective.
And after Yusei entered Hayasaka's body, her eyes also changed color, becoming the ripple-patterned Rinnegan.
Yusei hesitated for a moment, then temporarily bestowed the Deva Path's power upon Hayasaka.
Because she was an acquaintance, Yusei only planned to control Hayasaka for this martial arts competition.
After this competition, she would return to normal.
Simply put, Hayasaka was not Yusei's chosen vessel for a Six Paths Puppet.
Yusei tried controlling the body and found it unexpectedly smooth. Although the speed, strength, and other aspects couldn't be compared to his main body, the fluidity was the same as a normal person's, and some movements were even smoother.
"Feels unexpectedly good." Yusei and Hayasaka spoke simultaneously, but eerily, although their voices were different, their tone was identical.
Yusei smiled, looking at Hayasaka standing in front of him, "Ai-chan, how does it feel?"
Hayasaka Ai, having regained her senses by now, looked at her own hands in disbelief.
"I... I am..." Perhaps unconsciously, a repulsive force erupted from her body. If left unchecked, Kaguya's room would have been completely destroyed.
Yusei directly severed the source of her Rinnegan connection.
Hayasaka, who had unintentionally used the Rinnegan's power, slumped to the floor, gasping for breath. That small exertion had exhausted her completely.
"Don't try to use that ability. Also, this is my development in swordsmanship, don't tell anyone, okay?"
"Later, I'll control you to fight those people. They will be hypnotized by an illusion and won't realize it's you fighting instead of Kaguya."
Hayasaka was still somewhat dazed, but when she heard this was 'swordsmanship', one thought immediately crossed her mind.
'Yusei-sama, do you take me for a fool?'
But she didn't say anything.
Firstly, Yusei was Kaguya's fiancé.
Secondly, she herself was very curious about this ability.
It wasn't until evening that Yusei, Hayasaka, and Koken returned from Okita Family's dojo. This martial arts competition had been quite fruitful for him.
The first point was learning that living Six Paths Puppets could also be controlled and used for combat.
Perhaps because they were alive, the body's flexibility and fluidity were unexpectedly excellent.
The second point was that Souji's aura had become much stronger. Her Rengoku Ken was very problematic, but for now, this 'problem' seemed to be positive.
