Naruto's civilian cannon fodder starts with the three-body technique

Chapter 99 Puppet Materials

With the reference of the Mechanical Shield Puppet, it is not difficult to develop the initial version of the Mecha Puppet. The difficulty lies in finding the materials, and even many materials cannot be bought with money.

Puppet materials are generally required to be light in weight, yet high in strength, corrosion-resistant, highly compatible, and also have a certain degree of chakra conductivity.

Finding puppet materials is like finding a partner. One condition is easier to meet, but if all the conditions are added together, it will be difficult. What's more important is that the conditions here are contradictory.

The only things that can meet all the conditions are the scales and bones of spirit beasts and some rare woods.

Of course, if you are not afraid of breaking taboos, ninja corpses are also very good puppet materials.

The reason why the Sand Village was able to develop the ninja profession of puppeteer was not only due to the natural talent of the second generation Kazekage Shamon, but also due to the harsh environment of the desert in the Wind Country, where a large number of crustacean summoned beasts lived. The Sand Ninjas could go deep into the desert to hunt these summoned beasts and obtain a large amount of puppet materials and poisons.

It is naturally impossible for Umino Sasuke to go to the Wind Country to hunt for puppet materials. He can only use the existing puppet materials and some metals to modify the mecha puppet.

"The mecha puppet cannot be too heavy. The proportion of metal materials must be reduced."

Now he has seized more than ten Sand Ninja puppets. Except for the mechanical shield puppet, which can be used after a little modification, the parts and materials taken from the other puppets can barely rebuild half a mecha puppet.

However, he did not rush to the black market to buy puppet materials, but took out the high-level spiritual beast giant lizard that he had killed some time ago.

If all the scales and bones of such a huge monster were extracted, they would be enough for him to make several mecha puppets.

However, since quality is more important than quantity, Umino Sasuke decided to use it to make a large mecha puppet.

If you have a large mecha puppet, even if you face an elite jonin, you won't be killed instantly, at least you will be able to fight.

This idea is also the reason why Sasuke Umino created 6 shadow clones and devoted all his efforts to the research and development and production of this large mecha puppet.

As for the real body of Umino Sasuke, he continued to practice hard. In addition to practicing the Wind Breathing Technique on a daily basis, he also practiced the Rasengan Wave and Konoha Style·Ryu.

The Wind Breathing Technique had made rapid progress during this period. After eating a large amount of summoned lizard meat, the unknown mysterious factors captured and refined in his breathing were increasing. The amount of wind attribute chakra in his body also increased a lot, and he was getting closer and closer to the upper ninja limit of 0.5 cards.

As for the spiral hole wave, with the assistance of a large number of shadow clones, it has completed the chakra shaping of rubber tubes and steel tubes, and is currently in the final stage of rotating and cutting iron rods.

It can already be used in actual combat, and the assault distance has reached 10 meters. However, the actual effective attack distance is only 3 meters. Beyond 3 meters, the shaping of the chakra will become unstable, and it can only rely on shock waves to continue the attack. The subsequent power is equivalent to a Fierce Wind Palm that can launch a sudden attack.

That is, within 3 meters, it can break gold and split rocks, and beyond 3 meters, it all depends on the distance.

If you want to fully develop the spiral hole wave, there are currently only three directions. The first is to increase the amount of chakra and enhance the explosive power. The second is to compress the diameter of the spiral hole wave to make it more slender. The third is to add wind attribute chakra to change its properties.

The three directions correspond exactly to the amount of chakra, the control of chakra, and the changes in the properties of wind-attribute chakra.

Increasing chakra wasn't something that could be done overnight; it could only be achieved through continuous practice of Wind Breathing Technique. His chakra control was already comparable to that of most medical ninjas, so if he wanted to improve further, he could only rely on continuous practice. Of course, he could also hope to learn more advanced training methods from Tsunade.

As for the changes in the nature of wind-attribute chakra, he had been practicing it for a long time. He found that using shadow clones to cut leaves like Uzumaki Naruto did was not very effective. However, using spiral hole waves to cut iron rods was more effective, but it consumed more chakra.

Fortunately, in the process of devouring the summoned beast meat of the giant lizard, with the help of the wind breathing method, the Taotie technique has been developed to Taotie technique 3.0. To a certain extent, it can digest and absorb the energy in the summoned beast meat, and it also enhances the recovery ability of the wind attribute chakra. Otherwise, it really cannot withstand such a huge consumption.

At present, because of the inspiration from devouring the flesh of summoning beasts, the development direction of Taotie Technique has also been found, which is to find an opportunity to go to the black market to obtain the cells of Gold Horn and Silver Horn, analyze and study the principle of them devouring the flesh and blood of the Nine-Tailed Fox and seizing its chakra, so as to develop Taotie Technique 4.0.

His Taotie Technique 3.0 can only utilize part of the chakra in the summoned beast's meat, and it is impossible to devour and seize the chakra in it.

During this period, the increased wind-attribute chakra in his body did not come directly from the summoning beast meat, but was enhanced by capturing and assimilating the unknown mysterious factors in the breath through the energy in the summoning beast meat.

If he could take Taotie Jutsu 3.0 a step further, he wouldn't need to be as terrifying as Kinkaku and Ginkaku in being able to steal the chakra of the tailed beasts. He would be satisfied just by being able to devour and refine the chakra in the flesh and blood of the summoned beasts.

Judging from the amount of chakra a summoned beast has, even if it is far less than the chakra of a tailed beast, it is at least a chakra.

Of course, further developing the art of Taotie is a long and arduous task that cannot be accomplished overnight. It requires not only cells from the Golden Horn and Silver Horn, but also a large number of experiments.

But before that, we cannot stop devouring the spirit beast.

Eating a large amount of summoning beast meat can not only accumulate experimental data in advance, but also practice wind breathing techniques, increase chakra volume, and at the same time, improve physical fitness.

During this period, he devoured a large amount of giant lizard summoning beast meat. In addition to a huge increase in wind attribute chakra, his physical fitness also made a qualitative leap.

In terms of physical skills alone, without using the Eight Gates, he is confident that he can compete with Might Guy.

As his physical fitness improved, the Konoha-ryu Ryu that he practiced during this period also improved a lot.

This is mainly reflected in the speed of his sword-drawing and slashing skills. During this period, his slashing speed has increased by at least 30%.

As for the illusion of Konoha Ryu, with his talent for illusion, he had already mastered it completely, and was even not inferior to Maruboshi Kosuke.

The only thing lacking now is the skill of drawing the sword and slashing.

Swordsmanship is similar to physical skills. In addition to extremely strong comprehension talent, it also requires a lot of time to polish and accumulate experience.

After all, he had only been practicing for a short time, so if he wanted to hone his swordsmanship to a certain level, it would naturally take more time.

And now, what he lacks is time. Ebizo will not wait for him and may send more powerful Sand Ninja elites to retaliate at any time.
