"You're going to Navy HQ," Daemon drawled lazily, lounging like a man who ran the world and knew it. "Hijack a warship from Akainu—don't worry, he probably won't bite—and drag a Vice Admiral along to the South Sea. You're going to babysit Portgas D. Rouge."
"Babysit?" Stussy blinked.
"She's on Barmoslila Island. You don't need to touch her, interrogate her, or traumatize her. Just... keep an eye on her. Like a nosy aunt with binoculars."
Daemon waved his hand like it was a boring errand. Go buy milk. Kidnap a Vice Admiral. Same thing.
Stussy nodded mechanically. "Yes, Daemon-sama."
Daemon watched her walk off, then muttered to himself, "Not many people I can trust these days. Stussy's useful, and Akainu's a loyal brute. Shiryu's got potential, too. He admires me. Shame he's still wet behind the ears… probably die out there without ten more years of prison training. That kid's like a sword still stuck in the forge."
Meanwhile, poor Stussy was wrestling with something unexpected: jealousy.
Wait, why do I care?!
Just a few weeks ago, Daemon had personally branded her with the Heavenly Dragon's Hoof, turning her into little more than an obedient pet.
And now? She was jealous of a pregnant woman who hadn't even been collared yet.
"I'm losing it…"
SMACK!
A sharp sting landed on her rear.
Daemon's hand had struck with the casual confidence of a man straightening a picture frame.
"Relax, Stussy," he said smoothly, eyes boring into her soul. "You're my favorite pet. No one's taking your place."
Her cheeks turned scarlet. She couldn't even bring herself to feel offended.
"Y-Yes, I'll go now!"
She fled in confusion, her mind in a fog of shame, pride, and... weirdly enough... happiness?
'Cute pet'... If someone called me that last year, I'd have vaporized them. What the hell is wrong with me…?
Daemon returned to his palace, where several stunning women lounged around in various states of noble indifference and post-coital exhaustion. Princesses, noblewomen—proud creatures who had once ruled palaces, now purring in his bed like pampered cats.
Most of them had gone home after the "exchange program," returning to their countries with satisfied smiles and slightly ruined reputations. He didn't enslave them; they came willingly. That made it more fun.
Three hours—and several too-flexible princesses—later, Daemon finally waved off the last one draped across him like a luxury shawl. With a sigh of freedom, he pulled up the chat group interface to check the task he'd posted earlier.
"Mission: Conquer Wano," he read aloud. "Participants: three. Rewards based on satisfaction. Random loot draw."
He rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
Seems like missions get triggered based on what we want most. Miyuki got hers right before her revenge arc. I decide to invade Wano, and boom—task unlocked. Coincidence? Not likely.
Still, he wasn't complaining. Group members couldn't harm each other anyway. And as for possible collateral damage to the world?
Please. Who in this group gives a damn?
He got up, kicked a few unconscious princesses into their dresses, and marched to his vault.
Inside was enough wealth to make dragons jealous. Mountains of gold, crates of jewels, shelves stacked with cursed weapons, and several treasure chests containing Devil Fruits. And this? This was just one small stash.
He locked the vault and messaged the group.
Daemon: "You two ready?"
Kasumigaoka Utaha: "On school break. Let's roll."
Luo Hao: "Finally. I was starting to itch."
Esdeath: "I will get picked next time. Or someone dies."
Miyuki Uchiha: "Can't wait to meet Sect Master! Also... uh, Daemon-sama… Can I borrow some gold? I'm a little... financially challenged."
In the Naruto world, Miyuki flushed. Even with her titanium Uchiha pride, this was embarrassing.
Yamamoto Mei: "What are you doing, trying to scam ninja girls by pretending to be a god again?"
Miyuki: "W-What! No! Don't make me Amaterasu you!"
The truth was... she was. She'd set her sights on Tsunade. And let's be real—if you want to woo a gambling addict princess, showing up with a mountain of gold screaming "divine sugar daddy" was a solid start.
Daemon smirked.
Daemon: "Sure."
With a flick of the wrist, he sent over a red envelope stuffed with more gold than some nations had in circulation.
Miyuki: "Thanks, Your Majesty Daemon~!!"
Naruto World
"Haha! I'm rich! RIIICH!"
Miyuki Uchiha grabbed a stunned Kushina and cracked open the envelope.
Instantly, a tsunami of gold dropped around them.
Miyuki barely managed a teleportation escape with Kushina, dodging death-by-gold avalanche.
Wide-eyed, Kushina stared at the endless glittering pile. "This... this is more gold than the Fire Daimyo's entire treasury!"
Miyuki, still breathing hard, couldn't stop staring.
Holy crap... Being a Celestial Dragon's pet isn't too bad.
She whipped out a sealing scroll and greedily began storing the loot.
Kushina blinked. "Miyuki… where did this come from?"
"I have... connections," Miyuki said vaguely, trying to look modest and failing completely.
As she watched the last of the gold vanish into her scroll, a devilish thought bloomed.
If I marry Daemon... is all of this mine too?
Back in the Pirate World...
Daemon: "All right. I'm ready."
[All 3 mission members are ready. Initiating world mission.]
Let the interdimensional chaos begin.
