The stable operation of East Sea Bay Oasis and the thunderous launch of the Southwestern Peninsula's large-scale development were like two powerful stimulants, completely awakening Sunagakure's long-dormant potential. However, as the cultivated area grew exponentially, a harsh reality emerged: traditional manpower and animal power could no longer meet the demands of such massive, efficient production.
Once again, all eyes turned to the Sunagakure Joint R&D Department—to its director, Shaye, who had repeatedly created miracles.
After successfully mass-producing sufficient Ecological Puppet: Seawater Purifiers and ensuring their stable operation, Shaye did not stop. His gaze had long since turned toward broader horizons. How to apply ninjutsu and Puppet Technique more deeply to production and construction, comprehensively improving efficiency, became the R&D Department's new core mission.
Thus, under Shaye's personal leadership, the R&D Department's elites once more threw themselves into intense research. Based on the Ecological Puppets' mature Natural Energy Core power system, precise Sealing Technique control system, and high-strength alloy forging technology, a series of massive machines created specifically for production and construction gradually transformed from blueprints into reality within the research workshops.
The first to debut was the Giant Plow series of large-scale farming puppets. These puppets were sturdy and heavy in design, with broad tracked structures on their lower halves that allowed them to travel easily across loose sand or newly cultivated fields without ever sinking. Their core components were not combat weapons, but enormous composite plowshares gleaming with cold metallic light, along with automatic seeding and soil-covering units at the rear. Driven by the stable energy supplied by the purifiers, they possessed strength surpassing dozens of sturdy oxen. They could plow land, sow seeds with precision, and work day and night at astonishing speed, with efficiency over a hundred times that of human labor. When several Giant Plow puppets
