Hokage: I Traveled Through Time With The Tenseigan

🍃To advance 17 chapter in patreon🍃

However, before they could take action, dozens of puppets rushed toward them like ghosts.

Huang Tu shouted, "Everyone, be careful! The enemy's puppets are coming."

The humanoid puppets were armed with kunai, which were standard equipment. Kunai are cheap and suitable for use with humanoid puppets. As for other weapons, Shigeru was reluctant to equip these puppets with anything else. They were merely expendables, so why waste extra resources?

"Die!"

One of the Iwagakure ninjas gripped his kunai tightly and engaged the puppet charging at the front.

The kunai clashed, and a powerful impact coursed through the Iwagakure ninja. He hadn't expected the puppet to be so strong. His body halted, and he stepped back a few paces, but the puppet remained unaffected. It surged forward, the kunai piercing his heart.

After delivering a successful blow, the puppet swiftly moved on to the next target without pause.

"Be on guard! Be on guard!"

The battlefield suddenly became chaotic. Dozens of puppets plunged into the Iwa Ninja Village's camp, attacking those around them fiercely, heedless of any injuries they might sustain.

The most troublesome aspect was that even if their heads were severed, these puppets could still wield their weapons to deliver a fatal strike.

From the onset of the battle, the situation flipped unexpectedly. This was something Huang Tu hadn't foreseen. As he raised his hand to form a seal, he watched the puppets charge into crowded areas and couldn't help but curse, rushing forward with a kunai.

The giant eagle landed on the hillside. There, a rock was pushed aside as Orochimaru emerged, carrying Jiraiya and supporting Hatake Sakumo.

"I must have arrived just in time."

"Very timely."

Orochimaru smiled, tossing Jiraiya onto the back of the giant eagle, and said happily, "I was just trying it out. I didn't expect that I could actually contact you through the puppet. Can your puppets be controlled remotely?"

"You never fail to impress, Orochimaru," Shigeru chuckled, giving Orochimaru a thumbs-up.

Frankly, Orochimaru's research abilities were truly impressive.

"Hahaha."

After receiving high praise from Shigeru, Orochimaru laughed.

"Stop laughing, the enemy is approaching."

Shigeru had deployed dozens of puppets. Though the puppets fought tirelessly, the Iwa Ninja Village had many ninjas. They cooperated effectively, quickly dismantling the puppets one by one.

Additionally, the puppets Shigeru deployed were merely defective models.

The damage these defective models could inflict on the enemy was limited.

Shigeru helped Hatake Sakumo onto the giant eagle's back, then turned to Orochimaru and said, "Want to see the fairy scattering flowers?"

"???"

Fairies scattering flowers?

What does that mean? Such a strange phrase.

Orochimaru didn't understand, and Jiraiya and Hatake Sakumo were even more puzzled.

"Surround them."

With victory seemingly within reach, Huang Tu wasn't about to let them escape.

"Shigeru, unleash the puppets and take them down. Let the puppets go," Jiraiya shouted anxiously.

Shigeru glanced at him, unimpressed, and ignored him. He raised his right hand, pinched his thumb and middle finger together, and grinned at Huang Tu.

"I hope you like my gift."

"???"

What does that mean?

How can you still smile when you're surrounded?

This unexpected visitor seemed to believe he could escape the battlefield with just a bird.

"Bang!"

With a sly smile, Shigeru spoke the syllable, then stepped onto the giant eagle's back and snapped his fingers.

With that snap, the dismembered puppets suddenly glowed with a faint blue light.

Not good!

Seeing this, Huang Tu's eyelids twitched. Many village ninjas were still engaged with the puppets. If these puppets were to self-destruct... hiss~~

"Boom!!!"

Within seconds, Huang Tu's fears materialized, as each puppet exploded violently like a bomb.

It took less than two seconds from the moment the puppets began glowing to their detonation. It was too late for Huang Tu to alert the village ninjas to take precautions. He could only watch helplessly as his comrades screamed and were blown away.

Those lucky enough were merely blasted away, while the unlucky ones were obliterated on the spot, leaving no intact bodies behind.

The explosive power of the puppets far exceeded that of explosive tags.

The violent explosions echoed in Huang Tu's ears, leaving his mind blank. He never imagined these puppets would explode.

These were unlike any puppets he had encountered before.

Wait, the one standing on the giant eagle doesn't seem to be controlling the puppets. Can these puppets move autonomously?

As if he'd stumbled upon a terrible secret, Huang Tu's expression changed on the spot.

The explosion continued, and ninjas not caught in the blast were stunned. No one expected the puppets, seemingly devoid of mobility, to explode with such power.

At this point, no one paid attention to Shigeru and the others anymore.

Shigeru calmly guided the giant eagle to ascend into the sky, swiftly leaving the battlefield.

They can actually explode?

Orochimaru was taken aback. He couldn't fathom why these puppets exploded. He had disassembled Shigeru's puppets before for study, and the disassembled puppets showed no signs of being rigged to explode.

Are they two different models?

No, no, it must be the same kind. Shigeru must have the ability to control these puppets to explode...

Orochimaru suddenly broke into a cold sweat, recalling how he studied these puppets without precautions. If a puppet had exploded while he was examining it, he would have been severely injured, if not killed.

"Gulp~~~"

Looking at the devastation below, Hatake Sakumo weakly said, "Shigeru, can I learn how to make a puppet?"

Damn!

With such puppets, who would dare to engage in close combat?

In battle, it's enough to send in the puppets. If a puppet is taken down, it explodes, a terrifying tactic that would frighten any enemy.

The puppet fighting style is all about relentless combat. They don't fear death, but what about your enemies?

They need to fight cautiously, wary of the puppets exploding mid-battle. This kind of fight is the most frustrating.

The puppets are fearless, fighting to the death, willing to drag down their enemies with them at any moment.

"Ahem, count me in," Jiraiya added with a smile, causing his wounds to throb and blood to trickle from his mouth.

"Sorry, the secret technique is exclusive and not shared with outsiders, so don't worry about it."

Many secret techniques are closely guarded, and most ninja families have such secrets.

It's fine if the technique isn't taught to others. Even if it is, not everyone can learn it.

Jiraiya grimaced in pain but remained intrigued by Shigeru's puppets.

"Orochimaru said you have at least hundreds of puppets comparable to Jōnin. Is that true?"

Did he really say that?

Shigeru glanced at Orochimaru and addressed Jiraiya's question:

"It's just a comparison. In reality, they're not quite at the Jōnin level. Unless I personally control them, a Jōnin-level ninja with sufficient strength can easily defeat my puppets."
