"Then come on." Chiyo was actually someone who had experienced great storms and waves. After being surprised, she calmed down. Sasori might be able to control so many puppets, but that didn't mean he could defeat her easily.
"Alright." Sasori was also not to be outdone. The ten white figures immediately turned into white shadows and rushed toward the hundreds of red figures in the air. There was the sound of metal colliding, the sound of fists colliding with wood and metal. Of course, there was also the sound of cutting that instantly disappeared.
As hundreds of figures clashed in the air, there were also many red figures descending. Although Sasori could control so many puppets, his spirit was divided into so many parts that the puppets were not so fierce. However, with each decrease in number, the attacks of the remaining puppets became more ferocious.
"That's right." Without Chiyo's control when she was fighting Sasori and his puppets in the original work, Sakura could only fight by herself.
As she waved her chakra scalpel against the army of puppets, Sakura's movements became more skillful and faster. Chiyo was extremely surprised after she noticed the changes.
Originally, she was still having a headache about how to improve Sakura's combat experience. She did not expect that she actually began to explore on her own. Moreover, she actually used her chakra scalpel to cut open the connection between the joints. It was as if she was dissecting a person. After being cut open, it was not so easy to reconnect.
The puppets from the Red Secret Technique were different from Sasori's other individual puppets. Despite being prone to breaking, Once they are broken up, they can be combined immediately by using chakra threads. Sasori needed to spend a lot of effort to fix them all after being destroyed after the war, though.
After all, the puppets here were not ordinary puppets. They had the same flexible fighting style as humans. Of course, they also had some weaknesses of humans. That was, the joints were more fragile than the pure puppets. It was difficult to reconnect them in battle.
Human puppets had such advantages, but there were also some disadvantages in using them. Did Sasori not know? No, he knew it very well, but there was no other way.
It was impossible for him to get every puppet to be as perfect as his original body. His works could only be divided into good and bad. Moreover, if every puppet was so perfect, he would not be able to control it himself. Sometimes, it would be more practical if it was simpler. He just needed to leave some trump cards behind.
After all, the will of a person was limited. Sasori's technique was superb, and there was a limit to how many people he could multitask. If each of his puppets were in the same quality at his Hiruko or Third Kazekage puppet, he would not be able to control them and could not exert their full power. Sometimes it was better to keep things simple
"I really did not expect that Sakura would actually use the chakra scalpel of medical ninjutsu to fight against the puppets. It is really impressive. Then I, this old woman, can't lose too much to the younger generation!"
After the surprise, Chiyo acted faster and more accurately. Three of her white puppets stood together. They formed a triangle while opening their mouths. The characters "Buddha", "Sangha", and "Dharma" appeared in each puppet's mouth. Instantly, a violent tornado sucked over the dozen or so puppets in front of them. The puppets that were absorbed were completely compressed and shattered in the middle of the formation.
Although this move was formidable, the number of puppets Sasori had was simply too great. Moreover, every time one of them was missing, the combat strength of the puppets that existed would increase by a bit.
Because Sasori's mind was becoming more and more concentrated, the fewer puppets he controlled, the stronger the might he exerted. Even if that puppet did not have any hidden abilities, it still possessed an extremely terrifying might in the hands of a Grandmaster-rank puppet master like Sasori.
"This won't do. There are too many of them. Even if Sakura's attacks are getting better, it still won't do. Moreover, she has also started to get injured. The only way now is to defeat Sasori himself. If he were to injure me, then we would all be finished."
Chiyo was getting more and more anxious. Sakura was getting more and more familiar with Sasori's movements, but the injuries on her body were also getting more and more serious. If this continued, she would be finished.
Unfortunately, it really did not work. Just as Chiyo thought this, Sasori had already controlled a large number of puppets to destroy the three puppets that were using the Three Jewels Suction Crushing technique.. At the same time, one of the puppets rushed toward Chiyo, and it was already too late for Chiyo to react.
"!!!"
Chiyo opened his eyes wide. She thought that she would die, but she did not expect Sakura to actually cover her. However, Sakura was also injured. Fortunately, the injury was not as bad as in the original work because there was no Hiruko or the Third Kazekage puppet around.
"Chiyo, it's your loss." Sasori still had more than a hundred puppets, but the battle he displayed was not much worse than when he still had two hundred.
"Not necessarily." Chiyo glanced at Sasori. No matter how strong a puppet master was, they were still a puppet master. They could not compare to other normal ninjas. As long as they were killed, then no matter how strong those puppets they have, it would be over."
"Is that so? Then let's give it a try." Sasori smiled. His work was phenomenal. Even the smile on his puppet face really resembled the smile of a normal human being.
"Let's end it." The chakra threads on Sasori's chest trembled, and more than a dozen puppets flew over.
"Fire Release - Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!" Suddenly, a straight line of flames shot over from afar, destroying over a dozen puppets like a fire dragon.
"Who's that!?" In fact, Sasori did not intend to kill Chiyo in his heart, but on the surface, he still pretended to be unhappy that he had been disturbed.
"I did not expect to be late. It seems that the One-tail has been extracted by you." A slightly cold voice exploded in the air. The black-eyed person who appeared before Sasori's eyes was wearing sportswear that was different from the usual ninja uniform in this world. The shoes he was wearing were not ninja sandals, but a pair of skate shoes.
However, compared to many weirdos in this Ninja World, the clothes of the person who just came were relatively ordinary.
"It's you!" Although more than two years had passed, Sasori still remembered this person in front of him in that battle. Thinking of the other party's ability and his words, Sasori immediately became alert.
"Ryoha!" Sakura muttered to herself. She looked at the person in front of her with a complicated expression. The person who came was Ryoha. With his speed, it would not take much time to rush over from Suna. Therefore, when he came here, Sasori's battle had not ended.
