Chapter 392: Reinforcements are coming
Just as Scorpion controlled several puppets to attack Kankuro and Temari, a wall of fire suddenly appeared in front of them, burning the puppets to ashes.
"I finally arrived in time." Zhang Yang turned to the front of Kankuro, landed in a very perfect position, and said casually: "It's okay, let's watch my performance next."
After saying that, he activated ninjutsu on several puppets that were about to rush to him: "Fire Escape and Fireball Technique!"
Puppets are afraid of fire, so they have no choice but to do anything in front of Zhang Yang's fire escape and are burned to ashes.
But what is strange is that even with such an obvious disadvantage, Scorpion still only controls a few puppets to attack Zhang Yang at a time. Is it consuming his chakra?
Zhang Yang also noticed something was wrong with Scorpion, but he didn't care. Even for the purpose of consuming chakra, he only consumed Flang's chakra. A mere hundred puppets could not cost Flang much chakra.
On the contrary, if Scorpion did this again and again in vain, his puppet would be burned away.
Finally, when the number of puppets was about 60, the scorpion stopped its wasted attacks, and then controlled all the puppets to attack Zhang Yang.
When Kankuro, who was watching the battle on the side, finally understood the scorpion's intention when he saw all the puppet attacks. He was not consuming the chakra, but consuming his own puppets. The more puppets there are, the more distracting the puppet master's attention, so he reduced their number, which actually improved his control.
"Be careful, the remaining puppets are difficult to deal with, and their speed and strength are increasing." Kankuro reminded: "And their blades must be poisonous, so don't be injured."
"I understand." Zhang Yang agreed while launching the ninjutsu: "Fire Escape and Fireball Technique!"
However, these puppets obviously did not have the suicide attacks like the cannon fodder before. They spread out before the fireball technique was launched, forming a spherical encirclement attack on Zhang Yang.
Sure enough, Zhang Yang also noticed that the abilities of these puppets were greatly improved. While avoiding the attacks of puppets from all directions, he activated a new ninjutsu: "Fire Escape of the Fire Dragon Technique!" The fire dragon was released from Zhang Yang's mouth, and opened his mouth and bit more than a dozen puppets in one breath.
But at this moment, Zhang Yang, who controlled the fire dragon, could not worry about being behind him, and a puppet was inserted into his arm with a ninja knife. Zhang Yang felt a severe pain, then quickly turned around and kicked the puppet away, and pulled out the ninja knife inserted in his arm and threw it on the ground.
"It's over, it's over, it's over." Zhang Yang nervously controlled the fire dragon to attack the puppet, while muttering in his mouth with sweat: "Is there anyone who can save me? I'm poisoned..."
Flang cursed with helplessness, "You idiot, why were you attacked?"
Zhang Yang was also anxious and retorted: "Aren't I careless? Besides, what the hell are you doing, why don't you help me block it? Or remind me?"
Folang coughed awkwardly and said absent-mindedly: "Aren't I careless too..."
Zhang Yang cursed: "You are careless! It's obviously intentional. Do you want to leave my body? Do you want to find that Lin Xiaoyu? You ungrateful thing!"
When Folang heard this, he became anxious and asked, "Did you take the wrong medicine? Why did you suddenly feel suspicious? When did I say I want to leave you?"
But soon, Flang noticed something wrong with Zhang Yang. He did not mean that he said these words on purpose, but that the toxins had begun to numb his nerves, causing him to speak without passing through his brain.
Indeed, Zhang Yang began to circle in a dizzy way, as if he was attacking the puppet, he was actually wielding his fists like a drunkard. In his eyes, the number of puppets suddenly increased, from dozens to hundreds. Zhang Yang was furious and fainted on the ground as soon as his feet were weak.
Scorpion did not say anything nonsense, and controlled a puppet to lift the ninja knife and moved towards Zhang Yang, ready to end his life.
At the critical moment, a girl with short pink hair suddenly appeared in front of Zhang Yang. She raised her fist and smashed it hard on the puppet, knocking it away more than ten meters away.
"This person is..." Temari remembered who she was and called out her name: "Haruno Sakura!"
"I finally arrived, are you okay?" Ying turned her head and said to them, "I'll leave it to me next." Then she looked at Zhang Yang who was foaming at the mouth and immediately gave him an antidote.
"Is Konoha's little ghost?" Scorpion saw the forehead protection on Sakura's head and said, "It's useless when you come. You don't know the ingredients of the toxins, so it's impossible to detoxify. And if you use medicine indiscriminately, he might die faster."
Sakura asked without any concern: "How did you know that I don't understand the ingredients of toxins?"
Scorpion didn't say anything anymore. He thought the girl was just talking big, and the purpose was to delay time and wait for other recruits. Scorpion would not give her a chance, so he continued to attack.
"Kankuro, can you still move now?" Sakura asked.
"Well, what's wrong?" Kankuro asked.
"Use a chakra line to connect my joints and serve as my assistance." Sakura said: "Next I will attack him close, so I need your help."
This was the first time Kankuro heard about the way to control people as puppets, but now it is not the time to be confused, so he immediately did what Sakura ordered.
Then Sakura raised her fist, smiled coldly, and fisted at the puppet that had rushed to her. The huge monster force instantly smashed the puppet, and then she rushed into the puppet pile and began to attack them physically.
Kankuro was shocked by Sakura's bold behavior, so he helped her more carefully. Several times when the puppet was about to attack Sakura, Kankuro pulled the chakra line to help her avoid the attack.
"It's done well." Sakura encouraged him while waving her fist: "Next, let's smash all these puppets one by one!"
Zhang Yang, who gradually improved, recovered a little bit of consciousness, but his head was still dizzy. When he saw Sakura fighting and the empty antidote that fell beside him, he immediately realized what was going on.
It seems that he finally arrived. Fortunately, when he was analyzing the abilities and shortcomings of the members of the Akatsuki organization with Shikamaru, he told him the ingredients of the antidote that he needed to fight against scorpions, which came in handy.
Everyone else should have arrived here, Zhang Yang thought about this and fell asleep with confidence.
