Testing and Ideas

"Lord Charlotte, you jest. My Puppet skills are only considered excellent among my peers, not particularly powerful."

Kankuro spoke modestly, knowing Lord Charlotte's abilities. In the future, whether it was Elder Chiyo, the traitor Sasori of the Red Sands, the Second Kazekage who developed the Puppet, or Monzaemon who improved the Puppet, they could all be brought here. Among these people, Kankuro dared not claim to be particularly powerful.

Tony didn't care about Kankuro's explanation. Back in the Magic World, he had seen Kankuro control Puppet to attack. Although the puppets' overall strength couldn't compare to his own armor, they were still very powerful.

"How old are you this year?"

Fourteen years old.

Hearing this age, Tony couldn't help but sigh. A ninja with extraordinary strength could fight and kill on the battlefield in his teens. The gap between ordinary people and them was truly huge.

"At this age, children here are still in school."

At this moment, Pakkun, who had come with Tony, spoke up, "Tony, ninjas usually graduate from the Ninja Academy at the age of twelve, and some top geniuses can even graduate at six or seven and become qualified Genin."

Upon hearing that someone could become Genin at the age of six or seven, Tony looked at Kankuro with surprise.

"Yes, some exceptionally talented ninjas can indeed graduate from the Ninja Academy at the age of six or seven."

Tony was somewhat surprised by the ninja system, where a child would graduate from school at the age of twelve or six or seven. However, since he didn't know much about the ninja system, he didn't make any rash judgments. After all, the fact that they could use this system for so long must mean that it was something special.

"Okay, that's your system. I just think you're still young, still a child."

Kankuro paused for a moment, then lowered his voice considerably. "I am still a child; I can't smoke or drink."

"OK, let's not discuss this anymore."

"Come with me, I'll show you my masterpiece."

After speaking, Tony stood up and led Kankuro toward his underground Laboratory. He wasn't worried that Kankuro would steal his technology; they weren't from the same system.

On the other side.

The man dressed as Joker, after learning Gaara's name, memorized it firmly. He glanced back at the corpse on the ground, then left the place of trouble without lingering.

As the two men left, the three corpses lay alone on the ground. At that moment, a female resident from the neighborhood went downstairs to throw out the trash. When she reached the trash can in the alley, she saw the three corpses not far away and immediately let out a piercing scream.

Ah~!

After screaming, she immediately ran outside and dialed the police.

Brooklyn police responded quickly to the call and arrived at the alleyway where the incident occurred.

The police officers looked at the three bodies on the ground, speechless. The manner of death was illogical; the countless bleeding holes all over their bodies indicated that the attack was not simple.

The scene was cordoned off to examine the traces left behind.

Looking at the damaged advertising sign and the marks left by the Joker when he fell, the officers checked the alleyway and found no surveillance cameras.

However, there are cameras on the street at the intersection. Although they can't see what happened inside the alley, they can still retrieve information about who entered the alley during that time.

Just as the officers were preparing to request access to the roadside surveillance footage, Hawkeye arrived at the scene with a team of S.H.I.E.L.D.. agents. He immediately flashed his badge and said, "Guys, your mission is over. This place is under our control."

Just then, a young policeman was about to speak up in rebuttal when an older officer immediately pulled his arm, checked his identification, and said with a smile, "Okay, this is yours to handle."

"Fall back!"

Sitting in the police car, the young officer still said with some indignation, "Why should we give it to them? Once we see the surveillance footage, we'll know who the perpetrator is, and the case will be solved."

"Tal, this case is clearly not an ordinary one. You saw the blood-stained gravel embedded in the wall, and the holes in the victim's body. This tells us that this is not a case we can handle."

"Even if we retrieve the video footage and find the suspect to complete the case file, the case will still be transferred out of the bureau. Cases involving the supernatural are not within our scope of responsibility."

"Extraordinary?"

"Iron Man, the God of Ninjas?"

The older officer glanced at Tal but didn't say anything more. Instead, he focused on driving towards the police station.

After Hawkeye and his men took control of the scene, they immediately loaded the three Little Black's bodies into a vehicle. They even ordered their agents to remove the wall covered in gravel.

Clearly, they didn't intend to leave a single trace. Just as S.H.I.E.L.D.. was cleaning up the scene, Gaara's good mood was disturbed by a few silent people. Instead of wandering the streets of Brooklyn, he returned to the Sunagakure Puppet Shop.

Back at the Puppet Shop, Gaara walked to the service counter and suddenly asked, "Has anyone been to the shop today?"

Upon hearing Gaara's words, Temari paused for a moment, not expecting her younger brother to care about this, and then replied, "Yes, Agent Coulson from S.H.I.E.L.D.. came by and bought four plush toys."

How did you know someone was coming?

Gaara pointed to the four empty slots on the shelf behind Temari, indicating that there were no more Puppet available there.

Looking in the direction her younger brother was pointing, Temari smiled and said, "Kankuro didn't make any extra Puppet, so I didn't restock this spot."

"How was your day? Did you learn anything?"

Gaara stood in front of the service counter, thought for a moment, and then said, "I finally understand why Lord Charlotte hates Mo so much."

"They are truly despicable creatures, utterly disgusting."

Temari's smile faded. For her younger brother to have such thoughts, something terrible must have happened. She wondered if he was about to go on a killing spree.

With Gaara's current destructive power, he could easily destroy several streets after a massacre, if not the entire Brooklyn. The impact would be significant, and things would become more complicated.

"What happened?"

Gaara briefly recounted his experiences that day, and upon hearing Gaara's words, Temari visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

Killing three Silent Ones is no problem at all and won't affect anything. She's killed quite a few scumbags in previous missions as well.

"When you encounter such scum in the mortal realm, there's absolutely no problem with physically destroying them."

"If Lord Charlotte finds out, she'll only look at you differently, since she utterly despises them."

Gaara waved his hand, saying nothing more, and returned to his room. He planned to learn more about this race online, and why they could provoke such strong dislike from Lord Charlotte.

······

The underground Laboratory of Tony Stark Seaside Villa.

Kankuro looked at a series of Mark Armor displayed to the side with an expression of amazement.

Tony's armor could carry him through the air, a capability he greatly envied.

What do you use to power them?

Tony patted the latest version of the Arc Reactor on his chest and said, "Arc Reactor, this is the power source for the armor."

"Can I see your Puppet?"

Upon hearing Tony's request, Kankuro was visibly taken aback. For Puppet Master, their Puppet is the most important secret, and it cannot be shown to others.

However, considering the purpose of my visit today—to exchange ideas and learn from Tony Stark —I hope to gain a better understanding of the materials in this world and suitable alternatives, and be able to offer many insights.

Kankuro flicked his finger, Chakra Threads on his hand immediately connected to the Crow's body, untying the bandages.

"This is my Puppet Crow."

Looking at the Puppet in front of him that could move on its own, Tony asked curiously, "How did you make it move by itself?"

However, Tony couldn't see the Chakra Threads with his naked eye.

Kankuro wiggled his fingers, and the Crow in front of him reacted in various ways as Kankuro fingers moved.

Seeing this, Tony was somewhat confused because he couldn't see the Chakra Threads, assuming that Kankuro's Ninjutsu was able to control these Puppet.

"Jarvis, scan this Puppet."

The next second, the Crow was thoroughly scanned by the equipment controlled by Jarvis.

As soon as Jarvis finished scanning, he immediately created a three-dimensional image in front of everyone.

Looking at the 3D model, Tony immediately started working on it, disassembling the Crow Puppet into its components.

"Indeed, this Puppet is a killing machine."

"Every mechanism and component is designed for killing."

The Crow Puppet has daggers on its wrists for attacking, cones in its mouth for attacking opponents, and some round hidden weapons at its joints.

What is this?

Kankuro was somewhat stunned as he watched the scanned Crow being immediately disassembled into various parts. Was this the help of technology?

It's a pity that the Puppet left by Scorpion isn't with me. Otherwise, if I could have it scanned and then learn from the breakdown, I could master it very quickly.

"This is Smoke Bomb containing poison. It can both block the enemy's vision and paralyze them with poison."

"There were actually quite a few Kunai and needles inside."

"My God, there are six bayonets on his trunk, and the ends of his limbs are all covered in them."

Tony exclaimed in surprise at the weapons on Crow's body, marveling that the Puppet's entire body had been transformed into deadly weapons, with no space left inside, filled entirely with various hidden weapons and killing tools.

Seeing that Jarvis's weapon might have a coating and toxins on it, Tony asked, "Are all weapons poisonous?"

"Yes, to better kill the enemy, the Puppet ' weapons are coated with poison, which is lethal upon contact with blood."

Looking at the dismantled virtual image of the Crow Puppet, Tony stroked his chin and then asked, "I see that your materials are mainly wood, and your attack methods are all poison and melee weapons."

Have you ever thought about firearms?

When Tony mentioned firearms, Kankuro hesitated. He had only been here for about 20 days, and while he had some knowledge of the weapons here, it wasn't extensive.

"Ordinary firearms are probably not as lethal as my Kunai."

Tony shook his head. "I'm not talking about those outdated things."

However, after seeing Kankuro's Crow, Tony had an idea: if an Arc Reactor were installed in the Crow's beak and used only to fire Energy Cannon, wouldn't its power immediately increase several levels?

Furthermore, the Arc Reactor's energy does not need to be supplied to other parts, nor does it need to consider flight issues, thus greatly improving its durability, rather than making it a disposable weapon.

However, Tony hadn't decided whether to install the Energy Cannon on Kankuro's Crow. Instead, he asked, "How powerful are the Kunai your Crow can shoot?"

"I have a granite ornament here. Try using the Kunai on the Puppet to see how powerful it is."

Tony led Kankuro to a granite rock that was 30 centimeters taller than a person.

"Try to see Kunai on your Puppet can pierce them."

Kankuro flicked his finger and immediately unleashed his secret technique, "Kunai in the Mouth": a continuous, high-frequency spray of Kunai in groups of three.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Three Kunai, empowered by Chakra, were fired at an extremely high frequency, instantly piercing and shattering the granite block that was taller than a person.

Tony was stunned by what he saw. The kunai Kunai powerful; even a machine gun couldn't penetrate this thickness of granite. At most, it would leave a white dot on the granite before it was spread out and pierced through by the Kunai.

Tony picked up a Kunai from the ground and found nothing particularly special about the materials used to make it. He could only marvel at the power of Chakra.

"Indeed, ordinary firearms are not Kunai."

"However, judging from the materials of your Puppet, they are mostly made of wood. Do you have any weight requirements when controlling them?"

"I think many metals can be used as substitutes, which would make its defense and attack capabilities even stronger."

Kankuro thought for a moment. His Ibuse Puppet was also made of wood, but the quality of wood in the Ninja World was different from that of wood in this world.

The Ibuse Puppet can withstand Monolith weighing tens of tons falling from the sky without being damaged, but the wood here might not be able to do that.

"Mr. Stark, the materials used for the Puppet are specially made wood from our region, which is harder than ordinary steel. If we could find a material that is both lightweight and strong, I would be very willing to upgrade the Puppet."

"That's easy."

"Jarvis, test the hardness of the Crow Puppet's material and find a material with higher hardness for the same weight."
