At the same time, Raikage's Office is within Kumogakure.
Naruto Uzumaki is squatting on the ground, with a pile of broken-looking Puppet parts and human tissue fragments of different colors in front of him.
This pile of "garbage" is exactly the remains of Sasori of the Red Sands that was blown away by the aftermath of Susanoo and later carefully collected by Konoha Ninja while cleaning the battlefield.
However, at this moment, Scorpion's Puppet body was seriously damaged and covered with cracks.
Naruto looked at the pile of "junk" in front of him, couldn't help but sigh, and rubbed his eyebrows with a headache.
"After doing it for a long time, I still have to fight on my own..."
His previous sweep of Susanoo was indeed a little too powerful to stop.
The original intention was just to scare and disperse Akatsuki's people, but I didn't expect to blow them all away, and they flew so far and scattered...
Deidara didn't know which corner he was blown to, and Naruto and Shadow Clone haven't found him until now.
Kisame was seriously injured and buried. Although he was dug out, he was still dying and was receiving emergency treatment.
They have been hospitalized for a week and still haven't recovered.
Kakuzu only had one heart left. At this time, because he felt insecure, he went to nearby Land of Hot Water to collect the heart under the supervision of Wood Clone of Naruto.
After Kakuzu collects the heart, the clone will come forward to capture it, and then take Yugakure and Land of Hot Water along with it.
As for Scorpio...
It turned into a pile of "figure" wreckage that needed to be assembled manually.
"These are all talents..."
Naruto muttered while starting to do it.
He stretched out his hands and began to repair Scorpion's body.
Under the guidance of Naruto Chakra, the scattered Puppet parts and fragments on the ground began to float slowly, as if pulled by invisible threads, moving and docking towards where they should have been.
Subtle splicing sounds continued to sound.
At the same time, Naruto also used the power of Wood Release.
I saw some places that were seriously damaged and could not be directly spliced. Thin, green threads like wood fibers began to spread from the palm of Naruto, wrapping around those damaged areas, and then quickly "grew" and filled in, forming a new wooden structure that was very similar to the original material but full of vitality, reconnecting and strengthening the broken parts.
This is not a simple repair, but more like a "regeneration" and "transformation".
Naruto While working hard, he was thinking about the future uses of these "talents":
"When Shinobi World is engaged in infrastructure construction in the future...Deidara guy is so dedicated to the art of explosions. He must be a good hand at blowing up tunnels, digging mountains and building roads, and his efficiency is absolutely high..."
"Scorpion, Master Puppet, has in-depth research on machinery and human body structure. It should be very suitable to develop infrastructure machines, automation tools or Medical Ninjutsu Puppet..."
"Kakuzu... that old money addict who has lived for almost a hundred years must be extremely sensitive to money and the economy. After Shinobi World is unified and the economic system is rebuilt, and he is asked to manage money and conduct financial supervision, he will probably be able to account for every penny clearly, and no one will be able to embezzle..."
"As for Kisame..." Naruto paused and frowned slightly, "Kisame...Kisame..."
He carefully recalled Kisame's abilities: huge Chakra, good at Water Release, able to combine with Samehada, absorb enemy Chakra...
These abilities are indeed useful in combat, but when it comes to infrastructure construction and development in peacetime... it seems that I can't think of a particularly suitable position for a while.
Should he be asked to work on water conservancy projects? Use Water Release to dig ditches or dredge rivers?
Or... given his personality, let him be responsible for some important security work?
Naruto thought about it and finally decided to put it on hold for now.
"Forget it, it will always be useful in the future." He said to himself, "Talents, the more the better, put them away first."
After completely assembling Sasori of the Red Sands's body, which was composed of countless precision parts and modified human tissue, and finally carefully placing the heart core inlaid with "Core of Regeneration" back to the reserved position in his chest, Naruto took two steps back and waited quietly.
This is a room next door to Kumogakure Raikage's Office that was temporarily used as Laboratory's and prison cell.
The light was not bright, but it was enough to see clearly the body of Puppet that was repaired by his own hands and standing quietly in the center of the room.
Scorpio's appearance has returned to what Naruto remembered - Red Eyes's short hair, handsome but cold Young Naruto face, and Akatsuki's clothes.
But those eyes that were supposed to be smart and sharp were now empty and without any sparkle.
Time passed by minute by minute.
The only sounds in the room were the ticking of the clock on the wall and the faint noise coming from the distance.
Naruto waited patiently.
He knew that Scorpion's "Core of Regeneration" would need time to re-stabilize and activate after experiencing the previous devastating impact.
Moreover, with Scorpio's cautious, suspicious and extremely persistent character of his "Eternity art", even if his consciousness has been restored, he is likely to choose to temporarily pretend to be unconscious, observe the surrounding environment and look for opportunities to escape.
As expected.
After waiting for a while, Sasori of the Red Sands was still like a real statue, without any movement.
Naruto seems to have lost patience.
He shrugged slightly, with a look of "It doesn't look like he's well yet" on his face, then turned around and strode Meteor Earth Flow out of the room, closing the door behind him.
The footsteps gradually faded away until they disappeared.
Silence returned to the room.
About three minutes passed.
After confirming that there is indeed no sign of Naruto coming back, and there are no other people's Chakra fluctuations around...
Sasori of the Red Sands's empty eyes suddenly turned.
An extremely weak light, but full of vigilance and scrutiny, flashed in his eyes.
Then, he began to move his body extremely slowly and almost without making any sound.
First the fingers are slightly bent, then the wrists, elbows, shoulders...
Finally, the whole person took a step forward stiffly like a rusty machine.
"Click..."
An extremely slight friction sound came from his joints.
Sure enough...
The body is a little stiff, and the lubrication and coordination of the joints are not as flexible as before.
This is the sequelae of the previous battle, and it is also the "flaw" left by Naruto Uzumaki who used Wood Release to forcibly repair the splicing.
Although it looks intact on the outside, many of the precise transmission structures and Chakra circuits inside have not been adjusted to their optimal condition.
But... it doesn't matter.
For Sasori of the Red Sands, an artist who transformed his whole body into Puppet and pursued "Eternity", the damage and imperfection of his body are just an opportunity for new transformation and upgrade.
As long as he can escape and return to his Secret Workshop, he can completely remodel his body back to its original perfect appearance.
The first priority now is to escape from here.
Scorpion didn't hesitate at all and started taking action immediately.
He first moved to the only window in the room like a silent shadow.
This window is a traditional wooden grille window, and outside is the street being reconstructed by Kumogakure.
Xie put his face close to the window and looked outside through the gap in the grille with extreme caution.
There were scattered pedestrians and Ninja working on the street, but no one paid special attention to this direction.
He Sensing looked around carefully again and confirmed that there seemed to be no ambush Ninja hidden near Office.
Opportunity!
