Soon, the forest became quiet.
Fragmented tree trunks and branches were everywhere, as well as Otogakure corpses that had been blown to pieces.
Scorpion threw away the "strong firepower" shield and continued to move forward.
Standing at the back, the puppet master who witnessed Xion's perfect art with his own eyes lit up and looked at Hiruko's back with admiration.
For all Sunagakure puppet masters, Scorpion is their idol."
It is also the "target" they are chasing.
"Sir, wait for me."
Sunagakure The puppet master came back to his senses, glanced at the abandoned agency object with some heartache and excitement, and hurriedly chased after it.
After once again easily killing all the invading Otogakure, the rest of the process went very smoothly.
The two of them stepped into Otogakure without any hindrance.
However, at this time, Jue has disappeared.
As expected, Otogakure is really not big, and there is no formal construction. It feels very similar.
An original village was transformed into a Ninja Village. As far as you can see, they are almost all monotonous wooden houses.
The entire village is surrounded by forests and vegetation.
Only in the center of the village was a palace that seemed to have just been built, and the pavilion was only two stories high.
"So eerie--"
Sunagakure The puppet master looked around and said softly.
His evaluation of this ninja village was scrawled - and because it was located deep in the forest, the light from high above was also blocked.
Not only was the temperature a bit low, but the visibility was also reduced.
As far as the eye could see, even the inside of the palace door was completely black.
This kind of Ninja Village doesn't feel like it is "inhabited by living people".
However, there are indeed some local people in the village, but their number is very small - after seeing them, they all looked surprised and uneasy.
Obviously, these villagers did not know the identities of Xie and Xie, but the explosion that just came from the forest seemed to have caused some panic.
"My lord--"
The puppet master glanced at the scattered villagers and called out to Scorpion.
What he wanted to say was very obvious. If Scorpion takes action against Otogakure, he can "kill Otogakure at will" - but if it involves civilians, it will be of two different natures.
Moreover, once Scorpion and Orochimaru fight, the fight will be fierce. At that time, everyone in the village will be passively involved in the battle and die from the impact.
Once word gets out about this - then -
This move by the enemy has sinister intentions.
It was clear that he wanted Sunagakure to be convicted of the charges of "murderer" and "intruder".
"This is Otogakure?"
Hiruko sneered.
It seems that the scale of Otogakure and the investment of Orochimaru are too sloppy in his opinion.
"Kazuo."
Scorpion issued an order and called his men by their names.
"Yes."
Sunagakure's puppet master understood this and immediately untied a puppet he was carrying, placed it on the ground, and then used Chakra Threads to control it.
Looking carefully, his puppet has an appearance similar to that of a bird, but the workmanship is much rougher than that of Scorpion's puppet. Some of the organs and structures embedded in the puppet can still be clearly seen.
However, this does not hinder the special functionality of this puppet.
You can hear the sound of gears turning inside its body.
Then, the big puppet bird flew high into the air.
From a high position, he patrolled the entire Otogakure.
Soon, Chakra Threads was broken due to the distance, but Kazuo was not worried, but Hand Seals with both hands and closed his eyes o
It seems that he is using his puppet to activate some kind of sensory Ninja.
"Everything is fine outside, but inside the room--"
After a while, Kazuo opened his eyes and reported to Xie.
After all, they had arrived at the enemy's territory, so they had to be cautious to avoid being ambushed by the enemy.
Although Scorpio behaves domineeringly, they are not really reckless to the end.
After all, the person we have to deal with is Orochimaru.
There are dozens of scattered houses in Otogakure - if Otogakure's troops are harbored in them, the scale will be considerable.
Let's see if the current Otogakure and Orochimaru have summoned this number of subordinates.
After the puppet in the air circled and flew, it returned according to a specific trajectory. Kazuo released Chakra Threads to control it again, and finally took it back.
The scorpion moved.
Facing the gazes of the villagers, he controlled Hiruko and followed the only main road into the village, going deep into Otogakure.
Go straight to the pavilion in the center of the village.
This is the only decent-looking landmark building in the village.
Orochimaru is the founder behind Otogakure, so this small building is probably the temporary residence of Orochimaru."
As the two people moved around, some nearby villagers got out of the way in panic.
"Did you move here temporarily? Do you want to seek protection from the Ninja Village?"
As he walked into Otogakure, the puppet master Kazuo could not help but observe this new ninja village in more detail.
First, he counted the number of villagers.
There are only a few dozen people - which obviously does not match the number of houses.
But it is also understandable that the houses may have just been built and will have to be gradually allocated as the village develops and the population increases.
Currently, the number of people staying at Otogakure is only a small part of the initial introduction.
It will increase in the future.
But Kazuo stared at a nearby villager and looked at it.
He felt something was wrong.
Because - these villagers don't look like they live in this village permanently, they look more like - they were captured.
These people themselves also have a strong sense of strangeness to this village." Even he, an outsider, could feel it.
"With the importance Land of Rice Fields attaches to Otogakure, it's impossible for Land of Rice Fields's name to be given to this Ninja Village and this kind of resources, right?"
Kazuo spoke.
Just as he was talking, Hiruko in front of him suddenly stopped.
At this time, they were less than two hundred meters away from the attic.
Kazuo was stunned and was about to ask what happened to Scorpion - the next second, without any warning, a cluster of black threads burst out of the ground at his feet and came out, like a living thing, about to stab his body.
But Kazuo was completely unaware of this.
Bang.
Hiruko's tail spike fell in time, not only shattering those black lines, but also piercing deeper into the pothole at Kazuo's feet.
Immediately afterwards, in the shadow of the alley to the side of the two, two lightning bolts rushed from the ground.
"Lightning Release?"
Kazuo was startled and immediately jumped away to dodge.
However, Hiruko, who was standing there motionless, was struck by the electric light.
It seems that Scorpion was attracted by the black thread coming out of the ground.
No reaction came.
Another lightning bolt that was originally going to attack Kazuo did not restrain itself at all after being dodged, and directly hit a villager.
The electric shock made his whole body burnt black, and he let out a scream. In the blink of an eye, he smelled of meat and lost his breath.
"My lord."
Kazuo looked at Hiruko who was hit by lightning and exclaimed.
Hiruko Electricity was flowing all over his body - but it seems that this blow did not cause any effective damage or impact on the puppet itself.
Hiruko slowly raised his tail stinger and turned to look at the alley where the thunder and lightning entered and exited.
"Sasori of the Red Sands is worthy of Sunagakure. Sure enough, there are two things - the material used to make this puppet seems to be a bit special, and it can actually block lightning."
"It seems that if you want to kill this guy, you have to think of other ways."
A burst of words came out.
Under Hiruko's gaze, a figure slowly stepped out of the alley.
