What Ebizo said was right. Since Zhang Miao came, Chiyo had indeed changed a lot.
Chiyo had been Sunagakure's advisor for decades, and she was also a powerful ninja. She had advocated using tough means to protect the village. It could be said that she was the same as Konoha's Danzo. Therefore, even though she had retired, she still treated the Fourth Kazekage with the same attitude.
Because she had this confidence!
However, in front of Zhang Miao, she was completely obedient and kind. She even showed her unusual gentleness when teaching Zhang Miao about puppet techniques.
"Little Ryu, you see, the fitted blades can be hidden in the puppets. This is not only very convenient, but also added an element of surprise when dealing with the enemy..."
Although Chiyo felt that Zhang Miao had already learned how to make puppets, she still taught him very seriously. She seemed to enjoy the process.
After she finished speaking, she patted Zhang Miao's head with a kind face again.
"Well, you have learned how to make, assemble, manipulate your puppet! You also learned how to install weapons on it. Now there is only one step left - to make a puppet that belongs to you!"
"Making a puppet that belongs to me?" Hearing Chiyo's words, Zhang Miao pointed at the simple puppet beside him, "Isn't that what I made?"
"No, it's just a standard puppet" Just as Zhang Miao finished speaking, Chiyo waved her hand with a smile.
"Creating a puppet that belongs to you means that you need to complete the design, production, and the final assembly process all by yourself. Understand?"
"Uh..." Hearing Chiyo's words, the corners of Zhang Miao's mouth twitched. "It means that I have to create a puppet from nothing, right? Alright, I understand. It's really troublesome!"
Although he said it was troublesome, Zhang Miao still walked directly to the table. After thinking for a while, he picked up a pen and started drawing on the paper.
Seeing Zhang Miao's actions, Chiyo curiously stretched her head over to take a look. When she clearly saw what Zhang Miao drew, her eyes immediately revealed a bit of surprise.
"Is this... a mantis?"
The thing Zhang Miao drew was none other than a mantis.
However, this mantis was different from the normal insect from his world, but a mantis puppet designed by Zhang Miao himself!
Zhang Miao carefully designed the composition of every part of its body, as well as its length and width.
When he finished drawing, Chiyo suddenly showed a surprised look.
"What a good blueprint, this is not something a beginner could make. Little Ryu, have you ever made a puppet before?"
"No!" Hearing Chiyo's question, Zhang Miao shook his head without hesitation, "I am just more familiar with mantis. Granny, do you think my puppet design is good?"
"Of course!" As soon as Zhang Miao finished speaking, Chiyo nodded with a happy face.
"This is simply the most beautiful puppet that granny has ever seen. The materials are placed in another room. Granny will go and bring them to you now. My little Ryu is really amazing."
Looking at Chiyo excitedly running to get the materials, Zhang Miao looked at the drawings on the table and smiled.
"The most beautiful puppet? Well, in that case, I have to add this, but what color should I use for this one? Green is boring, and black and white are too monotonous..."
Just as Zhang Miao was thinking about which color to choose, Chiyo had already brought over a pile of materials and placed them in front of him.
"For starters, you can use these. If you need anything else, just told granny! Granny will find them for you!"
"Okay!" Hearing Chiyo's words, Zhang Miao immediately came back to his senses and nodded, "Then granny, you should go fishing. If I have anything I don't understand, I will ask you again!"
"I know. Good luck with the design!" After saying that, Chiyo stroked Zhang Miao's head lovingly, and then walked out of the room.
After Chiyo left, Zhang Miao immediately locked the door and clasped his fingers together.
"Wood Release - Moulding!"
This jutsu was able to create a wooden model according to the user's will. The principle was similar to the Wood Substitution. The only difference was the shape.
At this time, Zhang Miao was making a mantis model. Under the effect of his Wood Release chakra, a small piece of wood emerged from one side of his body, and then grew bigger and bigger, and finally formed a shape of the mantis from Zhang Miao's blueprint.
When this wooden mantis grew over 2 meters tall, Zhang Miao finally let go of his hand seal and grinned.
"Hehe, it's convenient to have Wood Release. Now that the model is out, the rest is to make it into a puppet that can move."
At this point, Zhang Miao picked up the saw carved all the parts of the wooden mantis according to the blueprint he had drawn. Then he used steel threads and other materials to connect them.
After assembling the wooden mantis, Zhang Miao immediately flicked ten chakra threads from his fingers to his mantis puppet. He began to try to control it and immediately adjust and modify the parts that were not smooth.
After controlling the mantis puppet to walk around the house twice, Zhang Miao frowned again.
"There is no problem in its movement, and I can control it comfortably, but I feel that something is missing... Oh right, wings!"
At this point, Zhang Miao suddenly clapped his hands. "What can a mantis do without wings?"
In fact, puppets did not need wings, because their performance would depend on how good the user's control of their chakra threads. But Zhang Miao did not think so.
"The wings are also part of the mantis. It looks cool and it is not useless. Oh, I can put a some blades on its wings to attack my enemy when I spread them. Wahaha... I am indeed a genius!"
As soon as he thought of it, Zhang Miao added a pair of wings to the mantis puppet, and at the same time, he began to add weapons to the other parts of the wooden mantis.
There was only one type of weapon he added, and it was a saber!
To Zhang Miao, a saber was the weapon he was most familiar with. Not only was it convenient to use, but it also had a good lethality.
Therefore, he added four sabers on its feet, two on its hands, one on its head. He also added some to the wings. There were a total of nine sabers!
After installing the weapon, Zhang Miao applied red dye to the puppet and checked it carefully a few times. When he found that there was no problem, he nodded in satisfaction.
"Hmm, the production is done. I'll give it a name. What should I call it?" After thinking for a while, Zhang Miao's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Yes, since it uses saber as its weapon, let's call it "The Swordmaster'!"
