Chapter 654: I'm Sorry, Too Many People Can Really Do What They Want [Part II]
();
In addition, he was busy fighting the Red Sand Scorpion head-on, giving poisons with complex compositions and concocting corresponding antidotes. And when he was saving Kankuro's life, he had to use the chakra stored in the Yin Seal at the same time, so that Sakura's physical strength and spirit had been consumed by half. Even after going to the front line in person, after several hard battles, the chakra in Sakura's body has long been left.
And even a young man like Sakura, who is full of energy, seems to be a little difficult to support after this long battle. Chiyo's mother-in-law, who is already old, naturally no longer has the same spirit and calmness as she did at the beginning. On the contrary, in that instinctive continuous gasp, it was difficult to restrain a little tiredness.
It is precisely because of this that the red sand scorpion that has transformed its body into a human puppet and does not need to worry about physical exertion from now on is obviously an absolute advantage in a stable state that never changes its color.
"Whew...... Call...... It seems that we have won this battle after all. β
It's just that exhaustion is exhaustion, but it still retains the power of a battle in itself, and even if the red sand scorpion transforms his body into a human puppet, it can't avoid the iron law that the puppeteer's strength will be greatly limited when there is no puppet available, which makes Chiyo's mother-in-law's eyes full of undisguised smiles. Immediately, while controlling the remaining puppets and cooperating with Sakura's actions, the Red Sand Scorpion was firmly surrounded in the center, and at the same time, he opened his mouth to try to persuade the Red Sand Scorpion to come down.
"Now that the victory or defeat has been revealed, you still obediently tie up your hands and follow me back to Shayin Village to ask for guilt!"
Between the words, even if the Red Sand Scorpion intends to use its own body as the last puppet, it will continue to resist stubbornly. But for Chiyo's mother-in-law and others, who have the advantage of the scene, it's like a certain poisonous milk commentator's "How to lose the flying dragon riding face", no matter how you think about it, there is no possibility of defeat!
In other words, at this moment, the red sand scorpion has become a turtle in an urn with nowhere to escape!
But is that really the case?
"A hundred puppets, have you all been eliminated...... I'll just praise you guys, well done. β
In the face of Chiyo's mother-in-law's verbal stimulation, and the approaching puppet and Sakura's threat, the face of the Red Sand Scorpion still did not show the slightest unwillingness and annoyance, but seemed to look down on life and death, and always maintained a calm - or, to be precise, indifferent - look. Immediately, while speaking out and responding unhurriedly, several thin chakra threads were condensed from the mechanism opened on his chest. And then several of them were connected to the flying blades that had been thrown by Chiyo's mother-in-law before, and the last one of them quickly extended to the shelf behind him that was specially used to store scrolls.
"But you shouldn't be naΓ―ve enough to think that this is the end of it, right?"
"Don't forget, I still have one last scroll that I haven't usedββ!"
As soon as the words fell, before Granny Chiyo and the others, who were vaguely aware of the fact that something was wrong, had time to stop the Red Sand Scorpion, the Red Sand Scorpion used the way of treating others and the body of others, and shot the flying blade of the crow that was successfully connected to Sakura's figure in an instant without hesitation. And then surrounded Wei to save Zhao, forcing Sakura to instinctively avoid, and Chiyo's mother-in-law moved the puppet to help Sakura intercept the offensive, and at the same time, the last scroll that had never been used behind his back, from beginning to end, was directly thrown into the air, and quickly spread out.
It was also at this moment that the Red Sand Scorpion first released a puppet to achieve the effect of a hundred machine exercises. A large red afterimage emerged from the unfolding scroll one after another. And then not only the puppets that were lost before, but also completely replenished them. After the puppet inside the scroll was released in one go, the scale and number of puppets were almost twice as large as the previous 100-machine exercises!
"My good boy...... There are so many puppets left? There's no end to it!? β
At the same time, because he no longer had the extra strength, let alone a puppet that could be used, to stop the Red Sand Scorpion, so that Kankuro could only be stunned even if he was not disturbed by the Red Sand Scorpion, and watched the Red Sand Scorpion complete the action of releasing the puppet. Then, after a brief silence, he held his head in his hands and exclaimed in despair.
"There are more than the previous ones...... How does this work? Just getting rid of those 100 puppets has already tossed us enough! β
Between the words, the reason why Kankuro had such a big reaction was not only that his current group was indeed not suitable for continuing a long-term fierce battle, but also because the previous battle had already consumed the vitality of Chiyo's mother-in-law and others...... The most intuitive is that Chiyo's mother-in-law's ten people in Konmatsu are on the verge of disintegration and scrapping. Kankuro even had no puppets available at hand, and his combat effectiveness was greatly reduced. Even Sakura, who rushed straight into the puppet group and turned on the Musou mode on a rampage, and was not afraid of the threat of poison at all, relied on the antidote that had long since passed the time to take effect!
Under this trade-off, for the exhausted Chiyo mother-in-law and others, let alone fight for a lose-lose ending. Whether or not they can kill the fifty or sixty puppets of the Red Sand Scorpion before they completely lose their combat effectiveness is probably already unknown!
"How? Were you completely blown away by my collection? β
Compared with the nervous Chiyo mother-in-law and others, the indifferent expression of the red sand scorpion revealed a smug smile. Then, while concocting more chakra threads and attaching them to each puppet's body, he held his forehead with one hand, deliberately posing as a careless appearance, teasing and mocking lightly.
"By the way, counting the part that you destroyed before, I have a total of two hundred and ninety-eight collectibles so far...... Originally, I was going to kill you and that little girl, and then make up the whole number of three hundred. But now it seems that there is no longer a need for this. β
"After all, it's already a question of whether you can keep a complete corpse for the next attack, right?"
Before the words fell, he had already delayed too much time in this battle, and like Granny Chiyo and others, the Red Sand Scorpion that had consumed a lot of chakra was controlled, and the puppet that had just been connected was like a raging tide, and it was like a surging tide that charged towards Granny Chiyo and the others one after another. Immediately, the increase in the number of puppets in this person led to the pressure that Chiyo's mother-in-law and her party needed to bear, and then multiplied a lot, so that at the beginning, Chiyo's mother-in-law, who was still able to take advantage of the red sand scorpion in a short period of time, could not control all the puppets in detail, and Chiyo's mother-in-law and her party, who were temporarily in the upper hand, completely fell into a precarious danger from the moment the battle broke out again!
And this adds up to a total of 298 human puppet armies, which is the real hole card that the Red Sand Scorpion has conquered an entire city by itself!
"With such an exaggerated scale, even I can't do anything about it......"
At the same time, in the face of this overwhelming offensive, even if she has personally experienced the ninja world war several times and is used to seeing life and death, she can't help but secretly feel a strong aura of despair in the depths of her heart. Immediately, her mother-in-law, Chiyo, who had made up her mind, used the chakra thread that was free to pull Sakura who was attacked by the flying knife back to her side, and at the same time opened her mouth to give instructions and instructions to Sakura and Kankuro.
"Listen up, Sakura-chan, Kankuro...... I'll try my best to delay the actions of this group of puppets and give you a chance to break through! And you have to take advantage of this opportunity to rush back to Shayin Village immediately to find more helpers! β
Between the words, as if she was arranging her own funeral, Chiyo's mother-in-law, who looked like she was going home, obviously planned to use half of her old life to exchange as much hope for survival for the two juniors who still have a lot of room for growth! So much so that as soon as the words fell, before they realized anything, Sakura and Kankuro, who caused their faces to change greatly, had time to speak out about this and express any objections, so they used the pulling power of the chakra silk thread to rush before the puppets of the Red Sand Scorpion completely completed the airtight encirclement, and threw the figures of Sakura and Kankuro far back!
In the final analysis, although the number of human puppets in this group is large, like the three generations of Kazekage, after all, they still have to rely on the chakra silk thread of the Red Sand Scorpion to control them in order to have the ability to act. So that in the end, there is still a certain limit to the length of this chakra silk line, as long as Sakura and Kankuro evacuate first and quickly open the distance between them and the human puppet, and Chiyo's mother-in-law is going all out to intercept the pursuit route of the human puppet, she should still be able to save one of their lives!
"Chiyo-sama, don't ββ!"
"Mother-in-law! What are you doing! Stop, don't ββ! β
With the exclamation of Sakura and Kankuro drifting apart, the puppets who were controlled by the Red Sand Scorpion had also surrounded the figure of Chiyo's mother-in-law in the center. Immediately, as Chiyo's mother-in-law expected, the Red Sand Scorpion, which also consumed a lot of money, gave up the plan to distract and pursue Sakura and Kankuro. And then the weapons that the human puppets each possessed, all of them were aimed at the relatively fragile body of Chiyo's mother-in-law with bad intentions.
Of course, even if she knew that her next path was only a dead end, Chiyo's mother-in-law did not intend to be caught and let herself be killed by the Red Sand Scorpion. Instead, he methodically manipulated the remaining puppets of the Ten Men of Kinmatsu, causing them to slowly move closer to themselves and form a solid defensive formation as much as possible. It is clear that it is necessary to use passive defensive tactics to delay the action time of the Red Sand Scorpion as much as possible!
"Oh? At this last moment, choose to sacrifice your life to save the two of them? It doesn't really look like your style......"
And after the formations between each other were all ready, the Red Sand Scorpion, who had already witnessed the scene of Chiyo's mother-in-law's sacrifice of life, deliberately applauded, using that banter and mockery to distract Chiyo's mother-in-law as much as possible. And then in the last syllable in his mouth, the moment he just spit out, he controlled the puppets who were ready to attack, and launched the final charge against Chiyo's mother-in-law without reservation!
"However, since this is your last wish, then I will look at the love of your ancestors and grandchildren, and fulfill you with great compassion!"
"In the end, did you still come to this point......
At the same time, although the current physical state is already close to the limit, Chiyo's mother-in-law's face, in the face of this extremely unfavorable situation, seems to be a return to the light, supported by a large amount of adrenal hormones secreted in the body, showing a sickly blood. Then he whispered rather self-deprecatingly, and tensed up, ready for the last battle of his life.
"I didn't expect that in my life, I have escaped countless fatal crises, and in the end, I will die in the hands of my own grandson, which is really ...... It's hard to put into words......"
It's just that when Chiyo's mother-in-law herself thought that it wouldn't be long before she would die tragically under the siege of this puppet. An unexpected figure of Chiyo's mother-in-law appeared in front of Chiyo's mother-in-law suddenly. Immediately, in the next second, with the figure of Chiyo's mother-in-law, she disappeared from the spot in an instant. Only the ten people of Konmatsu, who had completely lost their ability to move after losing their control, were quickly disassembled into scrapped parts all over the ground by the puppets who swarmed up!
"Finally, have you completely eliminated that old immortal thing?"
On the other hand, the Red Sand Scorpion, who had no idea about this, was completely blocked by this overwhelming puppet, and could only rely on his own experience to try to judge whether the combined attack he had just launched had been successful. Immediately, within the scope of his own perception, the number of human puppets was determined, and there was no reduction in anything, and while he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and he felt a little wrong about this somewhat overly simple ending.
"Huh? No, why didn't there be any movement at all...... Even if you don't resist and let my puppets slaughter you, there should be some noise, right? β
"Is it possible...... That old immortal guy, like me, has completely transformed his body into a human puppet, so even if he dies, he won't feel any pain? β
