Naruto Puppet Master

"Isn't there any news about this from Anzi?" This was asked by Anzi Sakumo.

"Sorry, no." Hatake Sakumo bowed slightly and said:

"In the past, the ninjutsu in Sand Ninja Village was passed down from family, especially the inheritance of puppetry. It is difficult for outsiders, even those who are not puppet masters, to come into contact with the puppet master class. Even now that Sand Ninja Village has been reformed, After all, the time is too short. Most of the things that are passed to the ninja school are basic things, and deeper ones will not be uploaded immediately. Firstly, the strength is not enough, and secondly, the issue of trust must be observed, and the strength is enough. The people must be the true direct lineage elites of Sand Ninja Village."

"I think it will take at least ten years before we can use the expansion of the Ninja School to place a chess piece inside the Sand Ninja Village Puppet Master." Orochimaru interrupted:

"As Orochimaru said, Sand Ninja Village seems to have been restructured to be more open now, but in fact it has just turned a small family into a big family. Now they are still connected by acquaintances among the three major factions. As a group, our people have no access to very confidential information and can only send back a large amount of extensive information." Hatake Sakumo explained: "And the confidentiality contract is also a big problem."

"Well, I get it. So is there anything else? Orochimaru, Tsunade's ability is to solve the most difficult poison problem of the puppet master of the Sand Ninja Village. Even if the current Sand Ninja Village has improved the puppet master's strength, it should not be a problem for Tsunade. The impact is not big?" The Third Hokage waved his hand to Hatake Sakumo and continued:

"Standard [-]: Every formal puppet master must cultivate something unique to him, such as new poisons, new puppet techniques, etc. Any ninjutsu or secret techniques that are helpful to the puppet master's system training and combat are acceptable. "

"Standard [-]: The basic ability requirements that a puppet master must have are: First, he must have the ability to command a small group of troops on the battlefield, and he must at least be able to master various auxiliary abilities such as sealing, medical ninjutsu, torture and investigation, etc., and have the ability to contribute to society. He has a good ability to judge the current situation and the world situation.”

"Standard [-]: It is a secret condition spread among the puppet masters of Sand Ninja Village. It is still unknown." Orochimaru said continuously:

"This is too high a request!" Everyone present in Konoha was dumbfounded after hearing this.

"Yes, the requirements are very high, but the Fourth Kazekage of the Sand Ninja Village claims that as long as he can pass the test of the Sand Ninja Village's puppet master and become an official puppet master, as long as he does not die or has no major problems, then in This ninja has a [-]% chance of breaking through to the Kage level in his lifetime." Orochimaru said calmly: "This is because the current puppet masters are all half-transformed. If the puppet masters who grew up after the reform of Sand Ninja Village succeed, The rate is over [-]%.”

"How many such puppet masters are there in Sand Ninja Village now?" The Third Hokage asked worriedly:

"There are only about a dozen of them after all, and the others are still working hard to become official puppet masters. But some of the conditions are particularly difficult, especially standard two. Ninjutsu is not that easy to study. So almost all the puppet masters at that time focused on poison."

"In other words, even the puppet master apprentices in Sand Ninja Village who have not become official puppet masters are likely to have their own unique poison! Tsunade frowned and said: "But even so, they all have their own unique poison. of poison, but do they dare not unify the use of large-scale poisons on the battlefield? "

"You must know that if the sand ninjas dare not use unified poisons during large-scale battles, then once extremely complex and changeable poisons appear, it will also be a fatal threat to themselves."

"But if they have a holy medicine that can detoxify! A holy medicine that can cure all toxins, then what are they afraid of?" Orochimaru said calmly:

"This is impossible. There are thousands of toxins and many changes. It is impossible for one medicine to treat all toxins, or even several types." Tsunade said decisively:

"Theoretically it doesn't exist, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist in reality. Nature is amazing. There are many things in this world that we don't even know about and haven't come into contact with.

Things, Tsunade, don't let your inherent opinions limit your vision. "

"In Sand Ninja Village, there is an ability that claims to be able to cure all toxins as long as one can afford the price. Its treatment range covers almost most of the toxins circulating in the ninja world. As long as a sample of new poisons is given in advance, then All the holy medicines obtained afterwards also removed this toxin." Orochimaru said with some emotion:

"This, this is true." Tsunade said in disbelief: "How could the theoretical universal antibody really appear?"

"It's true, Tsunade. But doesn't the Sand Ninja Village set the price of that holy medicine very high? It is said to be very precious. Can the Sand Ninja Village use a large amount of it in war?" Hatake Sakumo affirmed said:

"This is an obvious thing. Since Sand Ninja Village has allowed outsiders to buy it, then even if the number of sacred objects is not overwhelming, it must have reached a certain output. Otherwise, Sand Ninja Village will have to use it for itself. How can it be sold if you are not satisfied. Moreover, there are not many puppet masters. If you just support the use of the puppet master troops, it should be able to support it for a while." Orochimaru said with certainty:

"So I think we must mobilize a large number of Uchiha and Hyuga forces as vanguards, and it is best to have a Hyuga clan member in or near all teams to prevent the traps and ambush of the Sand Ninja Puppet Master troops."

"And the medical ninja team just established by Tsunade is a top priority. Because this time we can no longer rely on Tsunade to continuously crack the poisons of the sand ninjas to prepare antidotes like in World War II. In that way, as the sand ninjas Ninja may use a variety of poisons at the same time and become useless at all. In the coming war, we urgently need a large number of excellent medical ninjas, especially those who are good at detoxification." Orochimaru suggested:

Hearing this, Tsunade also temporarily put aside her thoughts on the antidote to the Sand Ninja Village, and turned to look at the Third Hokage eagerly. After all, Tsunade had long wanted to promote the concept of medical ninjas, but Konoha's top brass were reluctant to invest resources. To cultivate a ninja group with little fighting ability.

Others who heard Orochimaru's proposal, whether they were veteran ninjas or new jonins, knew what it meant. The Third Hokage also knew what Orochimaru meant by mentioning it at this time.

You must know that Konoha had already defined the original proposal for the construction of medical ninjas.Even though the top management of Konoha knew that its benefits were huge and had Tsunade Senju's endorsement for a period of time, they were still blocked by Danzo and other elders. Even the Third Hokage was not very supportive of this new ninja profession. In the end, it was just looking at Tsunade's face that she agreed to give it a try to a small number of people, and see what the reaction was afterwards.

Now that the results wanted by the village's senior officials have not yet come out, Orochimaru has brought up the old matter again, obviously asking the Third Hokage to put aside the elder group and vigorously promote it.

Bala, Bala

For a time, the only sound in the entire tent was the sound of the Third Hokage smoking vigorously.

After a long time, the Third Hokage took two strong puffs and then put down his pipe and said, "The war is about to begin. Can you do it, Tsunade?"

"Yes, yes, as long as you give me good enough ninjas, I will definitely double the number of current medical ninjas, and the stronger ninjas can also try to practice several medical ninjutsu. As long as chakra control reaches a certain level, simple first aid methods are no problem." Tsunade said rather incoherently:

"What about the detoxification ability?" The Third Hokage asked:

"You can use a general antidote and a few small methods to temporarily suppress the spread of toxins that are not too strong," Tsunade said without hesitation:

"Then leave it to you. I allow you to select people from the entire army and set up a team of medical ninjas for me. I will handle the matter with the village elders."

Obviously, on both sides of the Konoha elders and the war, the third generation Hokage, whose ambition has not receded, chose to deal with the needs of the war first.

"For Konoha, Mon Yan, Koharu and Danzo, you will definitely support me!" The Third Hokage thought silently. (To be continued.)
