Anime Heroine Who Travels Through the Blackened Way

At the same time, the rest of the group, led by Kakashi, also quickly bypassed the fighting area, obviously intending to continue moving forward. This made Mercury Lamp frown, and he planned to continue taking action.

But at this moment, with the sound of two weird puppet joints colliding, two incredibly fast figures rushed up from the left and right sides of the mercury lamp. They were the parent puppets controlled by Chiyo. These two figures were supposed to be dead. The object's puppets were like two weightless ghosts under the control of the master-level puppetry. When the wooden arms were raised, a sharp sword and a vine whip wrapped with sharp blades were directed towards the mercury lamp. The neck and waist fell, and a strange purple light flashed between the sharp blades, which showed that most of these blades contained deadly toxins!

so fast!

Even Mercury Lamp couldn't help but flash this thought in her mind. Although she did scatter the red dragon wave released by Bai Chu with one wing, the impact also succeeded in causing a slight delay in her actions, so the next moment, Accompanied by two sharp jingling sounds, two crossed cold lights flashed from her neck and waist, which was the sign that it had actually hit her.

"kindness?!"

However, Chiyo, who succeeded in the attack, was not happy at all. Instead, he felt more solemn. The reason was very simple. Although the parent puppet did hit the vital point of the mercury lamp, it did not cause any effective harm to her at all.

"It's really dangerous. It seems that I still underestimate the puppet master. You are much better than the scum beside Feng Ying."

Looking at the ice cracks on her waist as if nothing had happened, Mercury Lamp glanced at Kakashi and others who had successfully bypassed her, and did not intend to chase her, but shrugged slightly: "Unfortunately, the weakness of the puppet is that I I have seen through it a long time ago, so your attack will not be effective against me."

Mercury Lamp's words naturally have their basis.

As early as two years ago, as a condition for the Sunagakure Village to exchange Gaara and the three of them from the Leaf Village, the Sunagakure Village contributed the core knowledge of puppetry that it has always treasured, including the production and precautions of puppets.

And because of this, Mercury Lamp was able to learn the advantages and disadvantages of this partial ninja technique.

The advantages are obvious. The puppet master can freely use the substitution technique to interchange with his own puppet. Moreover, the puppet is also a dangerous object with a large number of cold weapons built in. When the enemy attacks at close range, he can suddenly replace himself with a puppet. This move is enough. Kill most ordinary melee ninjas. Secondly, the puppet can be controlled from a long distance, and the mechanisms and scrolls installed inside it are enough to allow the puppet to rush into the enemy group with confidence and pour out firepower wantonly. Even if the puppet is damaged, it can be repaired afterwards. Every time a hostile ninja dies, one of them will be lost.

However, the shortcomings are also obvious.

The first thing is that a puppet cannot have too much strength.

In order for the puppets to move freely, the materials of the puppets themselves need to be light. After all, their mobility comes from the chakra threads in the hands of the puppet master. How powerful can a puppet controlled by ten thin threads be?

This is the main reason why the weapons of puppets are usually sharp-edged weapons, because puppets with heavy weapons cannot pick up them at all.

After all, bladed weapons can form effective lethality through speed and strength. This means that the force required to swing them does not need to be too great. However, heavy weapons, such as warhammers and axes, cannot be picked up by the puppets themselves. It is more difficult to use them. It’s impossible.

Even Scorpio couldn't break through this shackles. Whether it is his most proud third-generation Kazekage puppet, or the hundred puppets he summoned in one go during the red secret skill drill he later summoned, as long as you pay attention, you will find that none of them are using heavy weapons, because of the power of the puppets It is a weakness after all.

Speed ​​and agility can be enhanced by the puppet master's own skill level, but the natural weakness of strength cannot be avoided.

In other words, the sharp-edged weapon wielded by the puppet may be able to easily split objects with insufficient defense, such as the human body or wood, but... if the defense is sufficient, a very embarrassing situation will occur - the defense cannot be broken. .

Therefore, although the parent puppets controlled by Chiyo successfully hit the mercury lamp, the light weapons they wielded were unable to open the ice armor on the mercury lamp. This layer of thin and close-fitting armor is easy to destroy if it is a heavy weapon. Even if it cannot be broken, it can directly cause damage to the body of the mercury lamp inside. Unfortunately, the puppet cannot deal heavy damage. .

Even Scorpion's third-generation Kazekage puppet essentially only uses chakra and magnetic escape to manipulate iron sand out of thin air. That's why it was completely restrained by Sakura's brute force in the original work.

If the parent puppets were not wielding light weapons such as tachi and vine whips, but a Xuanhua ax and a heavy siege ram, then the mercury lamp that suffered a combined attack from them would probably be about the same, if not beheaded. It's more air coming out and less air coming in.

Unfortunately, there are no ifs in this world.

Raising her hand slightly, the two ice cracks on the mercury lamp quickly recovered, returning to the unscathed state of the ice armor. When she raised her chin, her eyes were full of arrogance and ridicule: "So, old woman! Still... Just use whatever means you have! Even if I stand here and let you beat me, what can you do to me?"

Chiyo remained silent. Although she had long known that the mercury lamp that could kidnap Gaara was a formidable enemy, the other party was still more difficult than she expected. The other party is right, this layer of ice armor alone can destroy most ordinary puppet masters.

If it were someone else, such as Kankuro, then even if the mercury lamp stood motionless, Kankuro might not be able to hurt her.

But Chiyo is a human spirit among ninjas after all. Although this situation is the type of enemy she hates the most, it is not enough to make her give up directly. The puppet master's right hand moved slightly, and the father puppet on the side immediately raised his hand and counted. Kunai spurted out from his sleeves, and then stabbed towards Mercury Lamp's back heart. As if to prove his words, Mercury Lamp just stood there without any dodge: "That's why I said, you are like this It’s all in vain…”

boom! !

A flash of fire and a violent explosion immediately interrupted the mercury lamp's words, and violent smoke immediately enveloped it inside.

Looking at the smoke of the explosion, Chiyo nodded slightly.

"I forgot to mention that puppets can also use detonating charms. I think this is more powerful than heavy weapons."

(PS1: Well~~First update~~)

(PS2: As for puppets, the most outstanding thing is indeed the one that uses biochemical meat and chakra core to artificially create a sturdy body, and then covers the outside with powerful chakra armor, so that the puppet itself has the ability to move. Plant it~)

‘Protagonist’ level strategy

The border lines have always represented the areas with the weakest national governance. Because they are too far away from the core city, the daimyo are too lazy to spend more time managing them. Therefore, these places are often managed by the more partial nobles. , as long as you pay your taxes on time and don't go too far, you will basically not be questioned.

Therefore, there is often a kind of abnormal prosperity in border cities. Merchants entering and exiting the country have to rest here, gangsters going in and out of the country have to turn over goods here, criminals who are wanted for committing crimes hide and hide here, etc., so that these The city is quite chaotic and quite prosperous.

This is true even in reality. Cities that are used as export and trading locations are basically synonymous with prosperity and turmoil. Many commercial activities that are prohibited from opening in the mainland, such as casinos, can only be found in these places. In a stately manner.

"Tanzhu Street? Are you planning to be here?"

Looking at the writing on the plaque in front of him, Sasuke also raised his eyebrows slightly. For him, Naruto's plan was not the worst, but it was still a bit... unnatural to do what the other party decided to do here.

"Yeah~! This is the fastest way to get the news out! Could it be that, Sasuke, you have stage fright?"

Naruto poked Sasuke's side with his elbow in a sly manner, with a smirk on his face. Naruto was extremely proud of himself. He had seen this kind of scene in the past, but he didn't have many opportunities to see this chuuniu iceberg face paralyzed with embarrassment.

"Ahem~! Naruto, since you plan to do it here, then prepare well and don't waste any more time."

The Hagoromo Fox who was following the two people suddenly frowned, and then immediately interrupted the interaction between Naruto and Sasuke, which made Naruto say slightly unconvinced: "Okay, okay, I understand. So~ let’s go buy some things first.”

"This is necessary, hey! You!"

The feathered fox nodded, then turned to look at Xiang Ling, who was secretly trying to make a small mark next to him: "You! Go shopping!"

"Hey? Why me... Hi~! I know!"

The named Xiang Ling instinctively wanted to speak out a few words to refute, but before she could finish her words, she was directly suppressed by the eye blade of Hagoromo Kitsune. As the oldest woman here, Hagoromo Fox is also considered to be a member of the Uzumaki clan, so for Xiang Xiang Phosphorus itself has an elder-like oppression.

"I'll go too, let's buy men's clothing and props here."

Sasuke is obviously a very discerning person, so he does not intend to continue to look at Hagoromo Kitsune's cold face here, while Xianglan suddenly became excited: "Hey! I won't have any problems like this!"

"Ah~ But I don't have any money now. Sasuke, give me some. I'll pay you back when I get back to the village."

Naruto naturally stretched out a hand towards Sasuke and rubbed his index finger and thumb, which made the latter say slightly dissatisfied: "You said the same thing last time... and Shang Shang. Time, last time..."

Having said that, Sasuke still took out a wad of banknotes from the ninja bag on his waist without hesitation, and handed it to Naruto. As a companion of the capitalist ninja Hinata, although he dare not say that he and Naruto have any relationship with each other, They don’t know much about Capital, but at least they still have a high level of awareness of the convenience of money.

After all, whether it is to inquire for information or something, as long as you have money to clear the way, the chance of getting the information can be more than doubled. After doing a few tasks together, Sasuke and Naruto have become accustomed to using money to clear the way. In addition to the usual shuriken kunai and other standard ninja tools, he always carries some money with him. Therefore, the overall mission record of Team 7 is quite good, both in terms of completion rate and completion speed.

After all, ordinary ninjas do tasks to make money, but Team 7 does tasks for money, so the results are naturally different.

"Hahahaha~~ Don't be so stingy, Sasuke, haven't I paid you back~ And every time you are so rough, I still feel pain in my back when I think about it~! No one else can do this~"

Counting the bills in his hands with a playful smile, Naruto obviously enjoyed teasing Sasuke like this. After all, Sasuke is the person who makes the most money in the Hinata group and even in Konoha Village. Although Naruto, the queen of the art world, has an amazing salary, it is impossible to compare with Sasuke, the king of the art world and the largest real estate in Konoha. A pure capitalist businessman.

However... although the conversation between Sasuke and Naruto was quite satisfactory, both he and Sasuke seemed to ignore the environment and their own image. Therefore, in the eyes of others, this picture seemed to be a bit seriously skewed...

A caravan has obviously just arrived at Tanshu Street. Judging from the road, they should be returning from Iwagakure Village. After making a lot of money, both the leader and the associates of the caravan strongly hope to enjoy themselves. A little, including clearing the pressure off the prostate.

"Hey, boss~ Look at the one in front~"
