A few days later, Chiba and his party arrived in the small country that had been destroyed.

By this time, most of the corpses had already been cleaned up, and Chiba and they could only roughly find any traces from the blood on the houses and the destroyed and burned streets.

"It's... Amazing strength, such traces of battle, not to mention the elite of hundreds of people to do it, is this really as Chiba-sama said, is it just one person who can do it?" Chiba's side was quite incredulous in his tone.

The scene in front of him was no stranger to him, he had been fighting with Chiba for so long, and he had completely seen a battlefield that was ten times harsher than here.

However, those were hundreds of people and thousands of people, but Chiba said that it was probably done by one person, which made him a little unbelievable.

"If nothing else, it's the guy I know. While examining these traces, Chiba became more and more sure of some of his conjectures.

When those ninja villages saw these traces without a clue, they would naturally think that they were made by a large number of people, but this was not the case for Chiba at all.

When he, Chiba, imagined the battle scene here in advance as a powerful puppeteer, many traces began to become clear.

It may not be that no one suspects that this is a puppeteer's case, but they absolutely can't imagine that someone can control dozens or even hundreds of puppets.

In this day and age, Chiyo's mother-in-law, who has studied puppetry the most, is only able to control ten puppets at his limit.

There is no doubt that the scorpion is definitely a genius among geniuses.

Based on some of the traces left at the scene, Chiba was probably able to have a simple assessment of the scorpion's true strength.

That is, the current scorpion is stronger than he expected.

Originally, Chiba felt that the scorpion was about the same age as himself, and without doubling his shadow clone like himself, he must be far from him in strength more than ten years later.

However, judging from the traces of the battle, Chiba guessed that the scorpion could use at least more than eighty puppets at this time, if it weren't for that, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to keep one person from escaping.

But if you think about it carefully, Chiba can also roughly understand.

As early as its infancy, the scorpion had already developed a human puppet.

If it is calculated according to age, the scorpion at this time should have already transformed itself into a human puppet.

At least part of it should have been remodeled.

And once the transformation is completed, it means that the strength has been initially finalized.

In the next ten years, the scorpion may collect more and more puppets, but its own control ability is likely to have reached its peak at this time.

And from the disappearance of the three generations of Kazekage to the end of the third ninja war now, almost a few years have passed, and it is not surprising that the puppets of the three generations of Kazekage have already been transformed.

Therefore, even if the strength of the scorpion at this moment is weaker than later, the weak one is relatively limited, and it is definitely very strong.

As for why the scorpion wanted to destroy this small country, if it was someone else, it might not be possible to guess, but Chiba had already had a faint guess before.

There is no doubt that the scorpion is for resources.

For ordinary ninjas, resources are indispensable if they want to become stronger.

Just like Orochimaru, he established his own sound shinobi after breaking away from Konoha.

To be honest, the total amount of the entire sound ninja is relatively limited compared to Orochimaru's own strength.

But if there is no sound ninja, where did Orochimaru get so many research materials, where did he get so many bases, do you expect him to catch people and build them by himself?

And Chiba is probably the same thing, although part of the purpose of his establishment of the Ninja Village is to gain the strength to solve the rock ninja early, but the main purpose is probably not so.

Of course, he also knew that the combat ability of ordinary ninjas in the later wars might not be of much help.

But from the side, ordinary ninjas still helped him a lot in his cultivation.

For example, Chiba's recent conjecture about the force field in the final part of his research on the art of light and heavy rock and the technique of heavy rock can completely order hundreds of earth ninjas under his command to continuously simulate him day and night to accumulate data for him, and then develop a strong enough ninjutsu.

Chiba has reason to believe that the second generation Hokage can develop so many techniques, and it is inseparable from the many teams under him.

In addition, some pills necessary for cultivation could not be collected and refined by himself.

There are many similar examples, such as the Thunder Shadow lineage, as far as Chiba knows, Yun Shinobi and they have been collecting some special medicinal herbs all year round.

Many people in the ninja world can probably guess that Yun Ninja's alchemy must have mysteries, just as cultivating the Eight Gates Dun Armor may practice to death if there is no special pill to take, Chiba guesses that Yun Ninja's secret technique must also have a similar situation, and if there are not enough resources, it is likely that he will also practice to death.

Therefore, as far as Chiba knows, most of the civilian powerhouses in this world are piled up by resources, and having resources may not necessarily be able to become strong, but it must be difficult to have no resources.

Just like the tonic that they had given them when they had just started cultivating when they were young, if they hadn't laid such a good foundation, he would definitely not have achieved what he has today.

And there is naturally a conjecture about why the scorpion wants to destroy this country, and Chiba naturally has a guess.

The answer is simple, he has no money.

In the past, when he was backed by Sha Ninja, the scorpion may not have felt that it was worth a lot of money to give them a piece of material at will.

But without the support of the village, what can the scorpion do to continue to transform its puppet, you must know that the puppet is extremely expensive.

Many times, a small part requires a commission that lasts for months of hard work.

Therefore, this small country that made its fortune by making timber and commerce will naturally be targeted by scorpions.

And as far as Chiba analysis is concerned, with the character of the scorpion, it is obviously impossible to join just because of Payne Qiang, and it is not surprising that Nagato should have made some promises later.

And now, he can probably make the same promise.

Of course, this matter still needs to be very careful.

The scorpion is definitely not as good as he seems, and judging from the fact that he can slaughter a country mercilessly, the scorpion is definitely not as harmless as he seems from the outside.
