Chapter 142: Crushing From Technology
When we arrived at the Country of Rain, it was already noon the next day.
Looking at the land shrouded in dark clouds in the distance and feeling the water vapor in the air, Xie frowned.
As a puppet master, he hated the gray sky and the dark and humid environment.
Excessive moisture will cause metal to rust, and the dried corpse will nourish mold. It can be expected that during the days of staying in the Akatsuki organization, his puppet maintenance work will be more difficult than before.
After secretly cursing, Xie followed Bai Ye's pace.
Walking on the road to the Kingdom of Rain, Xie noticed that the Kingdom of Rain was different from other small countries. The roads here were actually built with cement instead of simple mud roads.
And it turns out that there are not ordinary people involved in the construction of these roads, there are also ninjas.
In his opinion, ninjas should not participate in these constructions. This is a tacit agreement between the ninja village and the daimyo not to interfere in each other's fields.
But in the Land of Rain, Hidden Rain Village quietly broke this unspoken rule.
This made Xia realize that the Akatsuki organization behind Bai Ye might really be different from other ninja organizations.
But what does this have to do with him? He has never had the ideal of peace in his heart. Only eternal art is worth all his pursuit.
Not long after, several people appeared in front of the gate of the Akatsuki organization base.
Looking at the gloomy Akatsuki organization base, Xie's expression changed slightly, and then he asked with some confusion: "Bai Ye, is this our base? Why does it feel so gloomy?"
Bai Ye glanced at Xie with a strange look:
"When we implement the tailed beast weapon plan in the future, we will stand on the opposite side of the entire ninja world. As the villain in their eyes, shouldn't our lair be so gloomy?"
Hearing this, Xie didn't know what to say, and his face was full of helplessness.
It turns out that you know that capturing the tailed beasts will arouse the hostility of the five great ninja villages, but there is no reason to call yourself a villain. Shouldn't you promote yourself as the righteous party?
Seemingly reading Xie's thoughts, Bai Ye explained with a smile: "I was just joking with you. The Akatsuki organization's plans for tailed beast weapons need to be kept secret for the time being, so we chose this inconspicuous place."
Hearing this, Scorpio didn't hesitate too much.
In fact, he is more concerned about the future working environment, remuneration, and whether scientific research funding can be obtained. The rest are details.
Of course, there is also the most important third generation Kazekage puppet.
"Byakuya, now that I have joined the Akatsuki organization, according to our agreement, should you return the third-generation Kazekage puppet?"
After saying this, Xie looked at Bai Ye. He was not sure whether Bai Ye would return the Wind Shadow puppet.
The Kazekage puppet is not an ordinary human puppet. Although its strength is not as good as that of the third Kazekage during his lifetime, it has inherited the Magnetic Release Blood Succession Limit. It is one of his most proud works and accounts for at least 30% of his strength.
Bai Ye nodded, and then gave the scroll containing the puppet of the third generation of Kazekage back to Xie.
Bai Ye returned the Feng Yingren puppet so easily, which was unexpected by Xie. He thought Bai Ye would keep the third generation Feng Yingren puppet to blackmail him into submission.
Thinking of this, Xie asked in confusion:
"Bai Ye, aren't you worried about me getting the human puppet and escaping? With the Kazekage puppet in hand, my combat power will double."
Bai Ye glanced at Xie and said expressionlessly:
"Since I promised to return the Wind Shadow Man puppet, I will naturally not break my promise. Besides, this is Yuyin Village. Even if you get the Wind Shadow Man puppet, it won't cause much trouble."
"However, if you try to escape, someone will show you how deep the water in the ninja world really is."
After hearing this, Xie's face was expressionless, but he didn't think so in his heart.
He didn't know how deep the water in the ninja world was, but he knew that he was very strong. The only ninjas in the entire ninja world who could defeat him, except Byakuya, were the leaders of the five major ninja villages.
If Amegakure Village really had so many powerful people, it would have become one of the five great ninja villages.
In the following time, Bai Ye first arranged for Xie's accommodation, and then allocated a large amount of scientific research funds to Xie to conduct research on puppetry.
In return, Scorpio must hand in the research results on puppetry on time.
Xie naturally agreed to Bai Ye's conditions, and there was no reason to refuse the research funds that came to his door.
However, after opening the seal scroll and seeing his own Feng Yingren puppet, the idea of replacing it emerged in Xie's mind.
If he could defeat Bai Ye and gain control of the Akatsuki organization.
Not only can he have access to all the funds within the Akatsuki organization, but he can also have a ninja village of his own. By then, whether he is pursuing eternal art or launching a war against Konoha, it will be very simple.
Soon, the time came to a week later.
As time went by, Xie's desire to defeat Bai Ye became more and more intense. He even wanted to take the initiative to find Bai Ye and launch a frontal attack.
However, at this moment, Xie was invited by Bai Ye to participate in a discussion among the top leaders of the Akatsuki organization.
After seeing Bai Ye and Xiao Nan releasing thousands of detonating talismans during a sparring session, Scorpion began to doubt his own strength.
Can he really survive the overwhelming detonating charms?
Even if he really completes the puppet transformation ninjutsu and transforms himself into a puppet body, he may not be the opponent of these two people.
After all, even the toughest puppet can't withstand such a violent bombardment.
The competition between Bai Ye and Nagato directly shattered Scorpion's three views and made him begin to doubt his puppet master's attainments.
In the competition between Bai Ye and Nagato, both of them used puppets to fight.
Seeing this scene, Scorpion became a little interested, and he also wanted to see Bai Ye's attainments in puppetry.
After the competition began, Scorpion was surprised to find that Bai Ye was also an excellent puppeteer who could manipulate three puppets at the same time.
The number of three puppets was not as many as his and his mother-in-law, but it was undoubtedly at the level of a jonin.
The puppets manipulated by Nagato even had two abilities that could be called heaven-defying, namely repulsion and gravity. In front of these abilities, the magnetic escape bloodline of the wind shadow puppet seemed really not enough.
Soon, Scorpion discovered a strange scene and frowned immediately.
When Bai Ye and Nagato manipulated the puppets, they did not use chakra lines.
Instead, they used a black stick that was completely black, which seemed to be used to remotely manipulate the puppets.
For Scorpion, this was undoubtedly a subversive innovation.
Let him realize that puppeteers do not necessarily need chakra lines to control puppets, and can directly control them remotely.
Scorpion can accept that his strength is not as good as others, but he cannot accept being crushed by others in puppetry.
