Chapter 195 Human Puppet

The Second Shinobi World War also coincided with Sasori's childhood.

[His parents were killed during a mission by Sakumo Hatake, the father of the character Wu Wu Kai.]

To conceal the truth, Sasori's grandmother, Chiyo, began teaching him puppetry techniques to distract him.

[As a child, Scorpion created two puppets modeled after his parents, and he would hug them every day for comfort.]

These "parent" puppets were the first pair of puppets created by Scorpion.

"Good heavens, if we didn't know the inside story, just looking at the images displayed on the screen, Sakumo is simply heinous. He personally destroyed Sasori's wonderful life, turning him into a pitiful child without parents."

Jiraiya's words resonated with most of those present.

These ninjas are ruthless killers, but that doesn't mean they lack the emotions of ordinary people.

Before being ninjas, they were first and foremost human beings.

When he saw Sasori using his clumsy puppetry skills to control the two puppets, "Parents," to embrace him.

The more sentimental Kushina and Kushina's eyes instantly welled up with tears.

"There's no other way. During the Ninja Wars, it was either you kill me or I kill you. There was no room for mercy."

Sakumo Hatake was also helpless.

When the two groups met, there was no time to think about anything else. For his own sake and for the sake of his teammates, he had to take the initiative and seize the opportunity, otherwise they might be the ones who died.

Even if Sakumo had to choose ten thousand times, he would still make the same choice.

Time passed, and ordinary puppets were clearly no longer enough for Scorpion. During this time, Scorpion honed his skills in using poison and creating human-modified puppets to a level of unparalleled mastery.

The three broken puppets in the hands of Gaara's younger brother, the puppeteer Kankuro, are toys made by Sasori in his early days.

[After that, wooden puppets could no longer satisfy Sasori's needs, so he began killing ninjas from other villages to create human puppets.]

[This includes Hiruko, who appeared later.]

Therefore, Hiruko's ugliness wasn't designed by Sasori; he was simply that ugly in life.

"Huh? A human puppet?"

In Tobirama's office, when Hashirama saw the human puppet Hiruko, not only did Hashirama exclaim in surprise, but Tobirama himself also seemed quite astonished.

Can a person be made into a puppet?

At this moment, Tobirama couldn't help but think of the speculation about the Rinnegan's abilities that the Third Hokage and Fifth Jiraiya had told him.

One of these aspects is the presence of puppets.

"I wonder what the difference is between the puppets controlled by the Rinnegan and the human puppets created by Sasori."

Due to the time difference, while the Third Hokage was resurrecting Danzo using Edo Tensei, Tobirama and his group had already returned to their own timeline.

This led to the Third Hokage and others learning through Danzo that Nagato could control at least five Rinnegan puppets, while Tobirama only knew that the Rinnegan could control puppets made by humans, but he had no idea how many could be controlled or what abilities they possessed.

Even if he didn't know these things, he could guess that the puppets in the two cases were probably not the same thing.

Just look at the image of Pain on the screen; those Rinnegan eyes are unmistakable.

No matter how powerful Sasori's puppets are, can they be more powerful than puppets with the Rinnegan?

Whether others believe it or not, Tobirama certainly doesn't.

"This kid is amazing! The material he used to create the child has changed from wood to a human figure. That must have been incredibly difficult."

"The First Generation Lord is right, and I think that with this increased difficulty, the puppets created will likely be much more powerful as well."

Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at Danzo, who was clearly flattering the First Hokage, and sighed slightly, saying, "It's just that using people to make puppets feels a bit cruel."

"Speaking of cruelty..."

Hashirama Senju glanced at his younger brother with disdain and continued, "There's a ruthless guy here who doesn't even spare the dead. Compared to him, Sasori is just a piece of trash."

Tobirama Senju: ? ? ?

How the hell did they manage to mention me?

(╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

Chiyo said that this kid was really tough, and she couldn't control him at all.

[Because the Land of Wind is vast and sparsely populated, with scarce resources, and has a penchant for body painting, and given that young Sasori's puppet-making skills are unmatched, he decided to leave Sunagakure and become a member of society.]

[Sasori truly lived up to his reputation as a "socialite," leaving Sunagakure with a significant gift before he departed: the execution of the Third Kazekage, who was considered the strongest Kazekage at the time.]

With the Third Kazekage's arrival, Sunagakure has become even weaker.

"No, so the Third Kazekage was killed by his own people?"

"Wasn't the trigger for the Third Shinobi World War something like the disappearance of the Third Kazekage?"

"That's right. Due to the long-term disappearance of the Third Kazekage, Sunagakure was left leaderless, which gave the barbarians of Kumogakure an opportunity. They took advantage of the situation and launched a surprise attack on the Land of Wind. After tasting the benefits, they immediately declared war on our Land of Fire and Land of Earth, wanting to unify the ninja world."

This work was compiled and uploaded by [author's name].

"If you ask me, Sunagakure is too weak. If they could gain even the slightest advantage in the war against Kumogakure, Kumogakure wouldn't dare to declare war on us and Iwagakure."

"There's nothing we can do. The Sand Village's puppet techniques are completely countered by the Cloud Village's Lightning Release and taijutsu. The puppets' attacks can't even penetrate the Cloud Ninja's defenses. How are we supposed to fight them?"

"Wind Release counters Lightning Release, right? Shouldn't the Kazekage of Sunagakure be proficient in Wind Release ninjutsu?"

"Ha, how novel! It's as if every one of our Hokage is proficient in Fire Release ninjutsu."

On Jiraiya's side, everyone was still intensely discussing the Third Shinobi World War while watching the screen, but after Orochimaru spoke, everyone fell silent.

Thinking about it carefully, what Orochimaru said doesn't seem to be wrong.

The First Hokage was skilled in Wood Release.

The Second Hokage was skilled in Water Release techniques.

The Third Hokage, well, he was skilled in Fire Release, but he wasn't only skilled in Fire Release; he was also proficient in the other four elemental jutsu.

The Fourth Hokage was skilled in the Wind and Thunder God Technique developed by the Second Hokage.

The Fifth Hokage, Jiraiya, would likely use Summoning Jutsu and Sage Mode from Mount Myōboku.

Of the five Hokage, only the Third Hokage can barely be considered a "Hokage." The other four, apart from Jiraiya, don't even come close.

It would be absolutely absurd if Naruto didn't become "fire".

"Do you think the Third Kazekage might have been turned into a human puppet by Sasori?"

After a moment of silence, Jiraiya spoke first.

"It's highly likely."

Orochimaru licked his lips, looking extremely excited.

Because he came up with a very interesting idea.

Since others can be turned into human puppets by Scorpion, could Scorpion also turn himself into a human puppet?

If a scorpion really did that, does that mean it can also live forever?

Even immortality?

"No wonder Sasori always talked about eternity back in the Akatsuki. So that's what he meant."

Thank you to [不入道] for the 1500 book coins!
