Rōran, Land of Wind.
Liao Wu was bullying Sasori. "Sasori, remember this from now on: wherever I am, you'd better keep your head down."
"..."
Sasori didn't know what to say. He wanted to die.
He was already dead.
Even death brought him no peace. Someone had dragged him back with Impure World Reincarnation just to torment him.
Impure World Reincarnation really was an unethical technique.
Candy reached out a paw and scratched Liao Wu. "Get to the point!"
Liao Wu said to Sasori, "Of course, I didn't snatch you back from Kabuto just to bully you!"
"You're the most gifted Puppet Master in the Ninja World. You must have noticed the puppets in Loulan City!"
At the mention of puppets and his own specialty, Sasori became noticeably more focused.
He said, "I noticed them. They seem to follow Sunagakure's puppet style, but they're better suited to remote control."
Liao Wu nodded. "That's right. Those puppets have Sunagakure's style, and they can draw on Dragon Vein Power."
Liao Wu and the Ninja Cats had obtained Loulan City's Puppet Technique from Anrokuzan in the past.
Anrokuzan's puppets were terracotta figurines.
Liao Wu said to Sasori, "From now on, I'll leave Rōran's puppet research to you. You'll build Rōran's puppet defense network."
"Do a good job, and I'll bring you back to life!"
Sasori shook his head. "No need. This body is the ideal Puppet Body!"
A body created through Impure World Reincarnation couldn't die, age, or even suffer lasting injury.
The only issue was that someone else controlled it. However, Sasori and the others had formed the Impure World Reincarnation hand seals when Kabuto released the technique.
That meant they were now free of the caster's control.
Ageless, undying, endlessly regenerating, and beyond anyone's control.
This was the perfect puppet Sasori
