Chapter 649: Blue Out of Blue, Better Than Blue [Part I]
Speaking of which, I was in a hurry when I started just now, and I didn't have time to see clearly who the opponent was this time. β
After summoning the crow and the black ant in charge of the attack at the same time, Kankuro broke the connection with the Sansho Fish, and instead attached the chakra thread that had been materialized to the two puppets, allowing them to stand up vividly. Immediately, his eyes narrowed slightly, and while muttering to himself, through the cover of the night, curiously looking at the appearance of the Red Sand Scorpion, he moved his body a little intentionally or unintentionally, and blessed the Chiyo mother-in-law, who had no puppet at hand for the time being, behind him.
"Let me see...... Well, this face, I seem to have seen it somewhere...... Where the hell is it......"
"Mostly, you have seen information related to him on the wanted poster."
At the same time, although Granny Chiyo knows, Kankuro can't be the opponent of the Red Sand Scorpion. But when Kankuro appeared and saved Sakura's life in time, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Immediately, after hearing Kankuro's casual whispering, Chiyo's mother-in-law only paused for a moment, then pretended to be casual and responded to Kankuro's question word by word.
"The man in front of you is my grandson, the Red Sand Scorpion...... That is, the maker of the three puppets you are used to: the Sansho Fish, the Black Ant, and the Crow. β
"Oh, I see, he's your grandson, Granny Chiyo, no wonder I always feel very eye-catching...... Well? Wait...... Wait a minute......? β
It's just that because of the influence of confidence and superiority derived from successfully resisting the attack, Kankuro didn't realize what terrifying amount of information was contained in Chiyo's mother-in-law's careless words for the first time. It wasn't until most of the words in his mouth that Kankuro, who realized something later, suddenly opened his eyes, and while he looked back and forth in disbelief from Chiyo's mother-in-law and the red sand scorpion, he was worried about whether it was his own ears, and in the short time just now, he had auditory hallucinations, and stammered and asked.
"Chiyo-ma-ma, you say he's your grandson? But isn't your grandson an S-class rebel who defected from the village twenty years ago? In this case, after all these years, how can he still be so young?! β
Between the words, Kankuro, who had followed Chiyo's mother-in-law and practiced puppet art for three years, naturally knew that the Red Sand Scorpion was not only an S-level rebel in the village, but also the most talented genius puppeteer in the history of Sand Hidden Village! So much so that in front of the Red Sand Scorpion, the puppet made of the Red Sand Scorpion was used to perform the puppet technique, which was tantamount to the ridiculous status quo of the class making an axe, so that Kan Jiulang, who was still full of confidence, collapsed in an instant.
And this is also the reason why Chiyo's mother-in-law knew that she was a family ugly, but after only a short moment of hesitation, she directly informed Kankuro of the identity of the red sand scorpion.
After all, if the self-confident Kanjiuro, in this obviously one-sided situation, manipulated the puppet to rashly attack, trying to solve the Red Sand Scorpion with his own strength, it would undoubtedly turn this good rescue operation into a foolish move to send people to the head for thousands of miles!
"I don't know exactly how he did that...... But I am sure that the person you are facing now is indeed my grandson himself! β
Thinking of this, Chiyo's mother-in-law, who had already spoken the words, simply nodded as usual in the face of Kankuro's unbelievable rhetorical question, and gave Kankuro an affirmative answer. Then he turned his head a little sideways, looking at the Sansho fish that had wrapped and protected the corpses of Sakura and Yura, and explained the current situation to Kankuro as concisely as possible.
"In addition, I have to remind you that the puppet around him is a human puppet made from the corpse of the third generation of Kazekage-sama! Therefore, he can use the ninjutsu developed by the three generations of Kazekage before his death! And the sand iron of the three generations of Lord Kazekage-sama can be said to be the biggest nemesis for our puppeteer! So, you have to be careful not to let his attacks hit the golem! β
"Has the attack on my favorite collection been resisted by my previous works...... This feeling of being in the way of oneself is unexpectedly subtle. β
It's a pity that Chiyo's mother-in-law, who has lost her puppet, plans to give Kankuro more action suggestions so that Kankuro can replace him and try to buy Sakura enough time to complete the development of the antidote. The red sand scorpion, whose expression was still indifferent, began to hook his fingers slightly after completely recovering from the initial surprise, and regathered the sand and iron scattered all over the place back to the side of the three generations of Kazekage. And in this state of poised to go, it is obvious that he does not intend to leave more time for the master and apprentice to communicate.
"Still, it's just a legacy of my old failures. Isn't it ridiculous to rely on their power to challenge me?! β
As soon as he finished speaking, he was affected by the chakra of the three generations of Kazekage, and the sand iron, which had regained its magnetic force, changed into a cuboid and a cylinder again. And in this huge scale, even if you don't have to experience it yourself, you can imagine what terrifying weight these two seemingly simple sand iron polymers contain, but as if they are not affected by the total weight at all, they still use the same speed as the sand and iron rain, and rush straight towards the figures of Chiyo's mother-in-law and Kankuro one left and one right! It seems that he is planning to use this terrible weight to directly crush the bodies of Kankuro and Chiyo's mother-in-law into meat sauce!
"It's coming! So fastββ! β
Fortunately, Kankuro and Chiyo's mother-in-law, although nominally, they are "ordinary people" whose strength will be greatly reduced as long as they lose the help of their puppets. But that's just an assessment of defense and offense. Even with the help of puppets or not, the movement speed of the two will not be compromised in the slightest. It can even be said that without distracting the puppet, it can be improved by a small amount! So much so that Chiyo's mother-in-law and Kankuro, who are also puppeteers, can judge that when the other party has begun to prepare for an attack, they are ready to dodge the attack in advance by virtue of the subtle movements of the fingers of the red sand scorpion. And then I was surprised and sighed, Kankuro and Chiyo's mother-in-law were both dangerously out of the original attack range intact before these two heavy pressures hit them!
"It's dangerous...... Without the protection of the sansho fish, if I were suppressed like this, I was afraid that I would really die......"
Of course, blindly dodging and being beaten, gradually exhausting his physical energy, and finally being killed by the red sand scorpion like a cat and mouse, is not what Kankuro is happy to see. So much so that while dodging the attack, Kankuro did not forget to pull the crow's figure and jumped into the air with himself. Immediately, he muttered and complained rather unhappily, but only slightly hooked his lower finger and split the crow's body entirely, so as to reveal the sharp blade hidden in it, and from all angles and directions, surrounded and sandwiched the figure of the red sand scorpion!
"Fighting the maker of the crow and the black ant means that all my attacks are under the control of the other party...... That stinky boy named Naruto really arranged a terrible errand for me! β
In the final analysis, Kankuro's penance and effort in these three years of penance were not much inferior to those of others who practiced in the Holy Land. So much so that both his father and younger brother are users of magnetic escape, so Kanjiuro's attack on sand iron can more or less find some solutions from this familiar sense of familiarity. And after seeing that the three generations of the Kazekage were attacking, the number of sand iron floating around him had decreased significantly, which was obviously a sign of a significant decline in defense, and Kankuro, who was unwilling to sit still, naturally would not let go of this excellent opportunity, and chose the path of taking the initiative to counterattack now that he still had the strength to fight!
Of course, this is also the reason why Chiyo's mother-in-law was in a hurry, and she didn't have time to convey to Kankuro that Sakura was racing against time to develop an antidote, and she was forced to interrupt the words by the sudden attack of the Red Sand Scorpion. Otherwise, knowing that the Red Sand Scorpion, which has the help of the three generations of Wind Shadows, can not only restrain the puppet, but also use toxins to threaten the safety of the body, it is estimated that he would never dare to act so recklessly!
"Hmph, boring little trick......"
At the same time, as Kankuro guessed, as the maker of the three puppets that Kankuro is accustomed to, the Red Sand Scorpion is all too familiar with the crow's attack mode. So much so that although Kankuro has a slight difference and change with the Red Sand Scorpion in terms of control style. But in the face of this ever-changing essence of the sect, it was still a glance at the Red Sand Scorpion, and he quickly identified the offensive route of these flying blades.
"Is this your strongest attack? Then it's my turn! β
As soon as the words fell, the Red Sand Scorpion, who had already seen through Kankuro's attack method, not only didn't bother to change the shield, but also moved out a small part of the remaining sand iron around him, condensing the sand iron bullets corresponding to the number of flying blades. Immediately, under the precise control of the Red Sand Scorpion, before Kankuro had time to react, he hit the side of the flying blade with a clanging collision sound. And then in the case of this external force impacting and forcibly changing the attack route of Kanjiuro's flying blade, the "perfect blow" that was supposed to be fired at the Red Sand Scorpion, so as to cooperate with each other and seal all the dodge space of the Red Sand Scorpion, instantly evolved, as if Kankuro's skills were too poor, resulting in a major mistake, colliding with each other on their own, completely interrupting the comical scene of the attack!
"Completely ineffective...... What a genius puppeteer......"
Fortunately, after Kankuro learned from Chiyo's mother-in-law that the enemy he needed to face was the Red Sand Scorpion, he did not naively expect that he could easily defeat the Red Sand Scorpion with the power of the crow's puppet. So much so that while controlling the crow and attacking the Red Sand Scorpion, Kankuro's seemingly free other hand was also constantly hooking and moving. Immediately, before the Red Sand Scorpion made a move, he deliberately shouted loudly, trying to focus the attention of the Red Sand Scorpion on himself and the crow.
"But my attack isn't over yetββ!"
Between the words, it seemed that in the previous sudden attack of the Red Sand Scorpion, it was not able to be taken away by Kankuro in time, and it was buried under the weight of sand and iron. And according to common sense, the black ants that should have been directly crushed into scattered parts by this astonishing weight suddenly broke out of the ground without a sound, imitating the previous Sanjiao fish. Even if you look closely, you can quickly perceive that the black ant not only dodged the blow that was enough to scrap it, but also under the uninterrupted control of Kankuro, taking advantage of the crow's attack to attract the attention of the red sand scorpion, from under this unguardable ground, quietly sneaked behind the red sand scorpion!
"Even if you are a genius puppeteer, as long as you disconnect from the puppet, you have nothing to fear!"
At the same time, Kan Jiulang, who took great pains to regard the black ant as a killer and quietly sent it to the Red Sand Scorpion, made it clear that it was not as simple as just to suddenly appear and scare the Red Sand Scorpion. So much so that at the moment when the black ant appeared, Kankuro danced flexibly with his fingers, allowing the mechanism in the black ant's abdomen to operate, revealing an internal space large enough to accommodate the size of an adult. While taking advantage of most of the attention of the Red Sand Scorpion, he still stayed on himself, and before he had time to look back, he unceremoniously swallowed the entire body of the Red Sand Scorpion into the belly of the black ant!
"In this way, the predation is successfulββ!"
It is obvious that the three puppets developed by the Red Sand Scorpion, like the "father" and "mother", are all types that can be used in conjunction with each other to exert the greatest effect. In addition, in the case of a clear division of labor, there are already crows responsible for attacking and sanjiao fish responsible for defense, although the black ant also has a certain attack ability, its main function is to use its own solid body to restrict the opponent's freedom of action!
And once it is successfully captured, the contact between the red sand scorpion and the outside world will naturally be forcibly interrupted by the tightly closed black ants! Even the three generations of Kazekage, who had lost the connection and control of the chakra thread, could only turn back into a puppet with no threat at all!
This is the real countermeasure that Kan Jiulang, who knows that he is attacking head-on and is by no means the opponent of the Red Sand Scorpion, has thought of! I want to talk about "Naruto: Changing My Life" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find a confidant~
