Chapter 773 Candidates
Ever since the Kazekage Nidaime started research on puppet techniques, in the past few decades, most of the ninjutsu research in Sunagakure Village had something to do with puppets.
Different from the development of forbidden arts, in the field of puppetry, except for the preparation of poisons, quenching poisons, testing toxicology and effects, detoxification, etc., which are quite dangerous, there is basically nothing to avoid.
Therefore, many puppet workshops' laboratories are located in Sunagakure Village.
Except for a few directions such as research on human puppets that may violate human ethics, there is indeed no need to avoid suspicion.
Daimaru's subordinates now actually control several research organizations of different sizes, half of which are dedicated to promoting the civilian use of puppets, and the other half are mainly focused on the design of flying puppets and underwater puppets.
In addition, there are also several private laboratories unknown to outsiders, either in places where no one is allowed to enter, or hidden deep underground.
If we just talk about the accumulation of technology, Daimaru can single-handedly eliminate most of the low-end and mid-range puppets on the market. If he is still committed to making money to improve his life and provide assistance for his own practice, such a goal has been achieved. .
When Kankuro opened the door to the laboratory and walked in, he saw that they were all puppets of different shapes, some were only half-finished products, and some were even obvious failures.
For most of them, Kankuro was able to judge their general structure and characteristic capabilities through past experience, but some were beyond his understanding.
Walking forward, the displays on the left and right are as clear as the direction of the evolution of the puppet technique in Daimaru's hand.
After walking to the end and turning the corner, the slightly nervous puppeteer at home saw Daimaru busy in front of the test bench.
"I am coming!"
"Wait a minute……"
Dawan didn't even raise his head. One hand was operating a device like a separator commonly used by pharmacists, and the other hand was carefully adding excipients. His brows were furrowed, as if he was worried about the results of the next experiment.
A few minutes passed, and Daimaru finally stopped. He destroyed the materials in his hands with a little disappointment, poured them into the waste bucket, cleaned the equipment, and then took off his plastic gloves to remove the odor from his whole body, and then exchanged greetings with Kankuro, who had been observing him for a long time. :
"It's a bit unsatisfactory! The material process is so troublesome. You have to try and make mistakes one by one, and rely on good luck to find the sample you like..."
"I know!"
After all, he is also a puppet master. Even if he is not good at designing and making puppets, he still has basic common sense. Kankuro has heard about the hardships of doing basic research before. It is a hell with no shortcuts and can only be achieved by the blessing of fate. Get out of the sea of suffering.
"With your conditions, you can definitely recruit a few assistants to do these things. There are many young puppet masters out there who want to learn from you..."
Daimaru smiled and shook his head, casually brought two high stools over, and the two sat down facing each other:
"Look at those experimental products. Does it look like a place suitable for ordinary apprentices?"
"That's true!"
The deeper you go, the more difficult and deviating you are from ordinary people's common sense. The specimens soaked in the petri dishes are all biological tissues that have been cultivated using biotechnology. They are not complete lives from the beginning. Logically speaking, it is against ethics. Morality has nothing to do with it, but looking at those fragments that are exactly the same as certain organs of the human body, it is inevitable that you will feel unbearable.
"The fear of death is an inevitable instinct of the living. Those experimental products are too similar to humans, and..."
Daimaru said with some emotion,
"They once had the opportunity to become living humans, even if their flaws were serious and their life span was extremely short..."
"Don't talk about other people, even me, I feel a little uncomfortable after looking at it for a few more times..."
A puppet stylist is a profession that shapes ordinary materials into combat weapons with various biological forms. The most familiar and adaptable thing to humans is humans themselves. Of course, a skilled puppet master will pursue powerful human puppets.
The lifelike robots, the flying Gundam, the omnipotent EVA, as small as shadow puppets, toy dolls, and as large as Transformers, the feelings are the same.
However, Kankuro came today not to discuss the future of the puppet master with Daimaru, but to discuss important matters as an invitation.
After a few pleasantries, Kankuro asked directly:
"What's the problem? Can't you please explain it to another place or time? It must be in a laboratory like this that makes people feel chilled all over..."
"well enough!"
During the busy break, Daimaru prepared a cup of carbonated drink full of calories for himself, and handed another to Kankuro.
"Would you like some? Drink a little less, it will refresh you..."
"No, I don't like sweets very much..."
"Your life is missing a lot of fun!"
Daimaru drank the liquid in the cup, which was a bit daunting, and let out a sigh of relief.
"Let's get down to business, I asked you to come here just to take over the human puppet of the third generation Kazekage..."
"This...the village has already decided?"
Kankuro, who had been waiting for a long time, was overjoyed and asked in disbelief.
"There's no suspense for a long time! This thing is a magic weapon for others, but I don't need it much anymore. It's a bit wasteful to have it at my disposal..."
There are not many masters in Sand Hidden Village to begin with. It would definitely be a good thing if there is another strong man who can use the Magnetic Release and Sand Iron Secret Technique.
"But why did you give it to me privately instead of giving it to the village and then legitimately letting me inherit it?"
Daimaru sighed and said:
"If the village were full of single-minded guys like you, there wouldn't be so much trouble!"
"What do you mean?"
"Do you really think you are the third Kazekage to be the human puppet? The leader of the new generation of puppet masters, a prestigious cadre of the Shadow Guards, what a great name..."
Daimaru curled his lips,
"Do you believe it or not, if I hand the human puppet back now, it will no longer have anything to do with you, at least within three to five years, it will have no part in you..."
Daimaru was able to get it because of his military exploits in destroying the Red Sand Scorpion, which made him eligible to "borrow" it. Later, his strength became stronger and stronger. Even if someone coveted it, no one could compete with it, but now the survey Kuro is still far away.
"Does that mean I rely on my backdoor skills?"
"What do you think?"
Daimaru laughed and said,
"Apart from Elder Qianyo and me, who else can legitimately control human puppets without anyone making irresponsible remarks? It doesn't really matter if other puppet masters, including you, are stronger or weaker. "Come on, do you think Gaara 'respects the wise and avoids relatives' or 'respects the worthy and avoids relatives'?"
Only Daimaru could blatantly open the back door for Kankuro at this moment.
