Saki charged into the sea of flames. Under the intense blaze, his pale eyes focused slightly as he spread his hands, assuming a stance.
"Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven!"
With a light shout, Saki's figure, engulfed in flames, began spinning rapidly.
"Boom!"
Centered around Saki, a fierce windstorm expanded into a nearly ten-meter-wide tornado. The swirling flames were swept up and directed skyward.
Gradually, the wind died down, and the flames dissipated. Saki stood calmly in a ten-meter-wide pit, surrounded by traces of the high-speed rotation.
Saki looked at the equally calm Sasori and spoke softly.
"This level of attack is still insufficient."
Sasori's gaze lowered slightly as he replied.
"Your body is impressive, able to release chakra from your body's acupoints instantly and form a defensive barrier through intense rotation."
A glint flashed in Sasori's eyes as he continued.
"However, even with this near-perfect defense, I have a way to attack your body."
Hearing Sasori's calm and confident words, Saki's lips curled slightly. His pale eyes fixed on Sasori as he spoke softly.
"Oh, I must commend you for quickly understanding the principle of Revolving Heaven, but I don't agree with your unwarranted confidence. Show me how you plan to break through my absolute defense."
As soon as Saki finished speaking, Sasori moved swiftly, charging toward Saki instead of retreating.
During his advance, Sasori's hand extended forcefully.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
From a scroll, he released ten puppets of various designs, some wielding sharp swords, others covered in poisonous iron needles, and some with claw-like hands capable of snapping a person in half.
With a flick of his fingertips, ten chakra threads connected to the puppets, bringing them to life.
The puppets, initially just fearsome shapes, sprang into action once connected to the chakra threads.
"Creaaak! Clang!"
The ten puppets floated in midair, following Sasori's lead as he advanced on Saki.
Saki's pale eyes widened slightly as he spoke softly.
"Do you intend to defeat me with puppets?"
"Such things can be destroyed with a single blow. I might ruin all your creations."
Sasori remained expressionless, his voice hoarse as he replied.
"Don't compare my creations with others'. Puppetry is a sacred and meticulous art, with no room for error. My puppets, imbued with a soul-like existence, might kill you if underestimated."
Saki's lips curled slightly as he muttered.
"Let's see then."
As their exchange ended, Sasori approached Saki closely. Maintaining a ten-meter distance, he swung his hand, sending the puppets diving toward Saki.
"Crack! Crack! Crack!"
The puppets unleashed their unique abilities mid-air.
A puppet slashed at Saki with a sword, creating a white arc in the air. Saki dodged, then countered with a blue chakra-infused palm strike to the puppet's abdomen.
"Boom!"
The puppet was knocked back several meters without any apparent damage, making Saki frown slightly.
The other puppets launched their attacks. One spewed thick poison gas, which Saki dispersed with an Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm, sending the puppet flying.
Another puppet, covered in poison needles, charged at Saki. He repelled all attacks with Revolving Heaven, scattering the puppets.
Despite Saki's defenses, the puppets remained undamaged, floating in midair, facing him.
Saki, lightly panting, asked calmly.
"How can these puppets resist my chakra attacks?"
Sasori explained quietly.
"My puppets, designed to fight ninja, are made with black meteorite iron, a rare metal unique to Sunagakure."
"Unlike metals that conduct chakra perfectly, black meteorite iron almost completely isolates chakra."
"Thus, your techniques are ineffective against them."
Saki listened calmly, his pale eyes shifting to the floating puppets. After a moment of thought, he lowered his attacking stance and spoke softly.
"No need to continue fighting. With such puppets and your meticulous planning, you can kill most unsuspecting ninjas."
