Capítulo 69: **Chapter 69: Fool**
After setting a goal for himself, Hattori threw himself back into training.
He went to bed by 8 p.m., woke up by 9 a.m., and spent every minute outside his basic needs practicing dodging outside.
His training method was simple yet intense: throwing stones into the air and dodging as they fell.
Rather than stepping aside, he dodged only by moving his upper body. When he couldn't avoid it, he used a kunai to deflect the stones.
This type of training pushed his reaction time and coordination to the limit.
At first, he couldn't dodge all of them and would get hit even by a handful of stones. But after a few days, he could avoid them with ease.
That's when he upped the challenge—he asked Karura to throw stones at him.
Unlike Chiyo's earlier throws one at a time, Karura threw a whole handful of stones his way.
At first, she resisted, but under Hattori's insistence, she began to toss them, increasing her strength gradually.
After two weeks, even her hardest throws couldn't hit Hattori.
By this time, his dodging skills had improved, reaching a new level:
**[Advanced Dodging: Passive skill, +100% dodge for ranged projectiles, +80% dodge for mid-range weapons, +60% dodge for close-range attacks; +50% physical attack accuracy within 3 seconds after a successful dodge.]**
A new attribute had appeared!
Hattori grinned as he looked at the new feature.
"I didn't expect an accuracy bonus! Three seconds may be short, but if used well, it's enough!"
Hattori knew that his strongest attack wasn't puppet mastery, but the monstrous strength he unlocked through Tsunade's medical ninjutsu techniques.
This was no ordinary skill but the ultimate Taijutsu attack from the Senju clan.
Its terrifying power could break through any defense, leaving dodging as the only option.
If it hit, it was Game Over.
However, it was meaningless if it didn't connect.
Just like in the original storyline, when Kabuto first faced Tsunade, he gained the upper hand using high evasion and escape abilities.
Remembering this, Hattori became wary again.
"Even with my boosted accuracy, what if I encounter someone with even higher dodge skills? Would I be unable to hit them?"
With this in mind, he made a decision.
"No, I need to keep training this skill and see if I can improve it further!"
With this goal, he planned to find Rasa and use his magnet-style gold dust to help him level up.
However, when he reached the Kazekage building, he learned that Rasa was out on a mission.
Left with no choice, he went to look for Chiyo, hoping her puppets could help him upgrade his skill.
But to his surprise, Chiyo wasn't there either, nor was Ebizō or anyone else.
Immediately, Hattori sensed something unusual.
"Something big must be happening… I hope I'm wrong."
With a mix of apprehension and curiosity, he started gathering information.
Given his reputation in Sunagakure, he quickly learned the situation—
Chiyo had led a large force out of the village!
Nearly all the village's shinobi, led by Chiyo, Ebizō, and Rasa, had set off toward Iwagakure in the north.
When Hattori heard this news, his expression darkened.
"The thing I feared most has happened!"
From his previous conversations with Chiyo and Ebizō, Hattori knew that Sunagakure wouldn't go into full-scale war with Iwagakure—at least not yet.
So, why were they moving a large force toward Iwagakure? It was clearly a diversion from their true target!
Aside from Iwagakure, Sunagakure's other major enemies were Konohagakure and Kirigakure. But Kirigakure lay to the south; Chiyo wouldn't go north to misdirect.
This could only mean that Chiyo's real target was the eastern Konohagakure!
Realizing this, Hattori's mouth twisted into a scowl.
"Dammit, attacking Konoha now—is Sunagakure trying to end itself faster?"
He pondered how to prevent this tragedy.
But before he could devise a plan, a series of notification messages appeared before him—
**[Hundredfold Yin Seal Completed!]**
**[Unlock Sealing or Curse Marks. Choose one.]**
**[Option 1: Sealing]**
**Description: An ancient sealing art from the Uzumaki clan, granting the passive skill—Resilient Life, permanently increasing HP limit by 1000.**
**Note: The essence of resilient life is the power to seal anything.**
**[Option 2: Curse Marks]**
**Description: A newer school of curse marks from Orochimaru, granting the passive skill—Soul Immortality, permanently increasing MP limit by 1000.**
**Note: The essence of a strong soul is the power to live forever.**
Once again, he had two options.
Hattori reviewed them carefully.
From the notes, he could tell that sealing aimed to bind all things, while curse marks pursued eternal life.
In terms of power, the Uzumaki clan's sealing jutsu was stronger than Orochimaru's curse marks. But Hattori leaned toward immortality.
Unlike Sasori's puppet body, Orochimaru's immortality allowed for bodily selection, including switching bodies at will—unrestricted by gender.
This could be the ultimate way to experience life.
Most importantly, with enough caution, it could mean living until the end of the shinobi world itself.
By contrast, the Uzumaki sealing jutsu seemed like a deep, unpredictable pit, always threatening danger.
"Only a fool would choose sealing!"
With that thought, Hattori smirked but didn't choose immediately. He headed back, still deep in thought.
When he returned home, he saw Karura with her large belly, and his expression grew complex before he turned to leave again.
Outside, he sat on the doorstep, lost in thought for hours.
Then, he heard Karura's voice from inside.
"Hattori, you're out there, right? Come in for dinner!"
"Oh, alright!"
Hattori sighed heavily.
"Ah, looks like I really am a fool. I've decided—I'll choose the Uzumaki clan's sealing jutsu!"
After making his choice, his HP limit immediately increased by 1000 points, and his personal stats transformed—
**[Name: Hattori]**
**[Title: Puppet Tyrant]**
**[Level: 41]**
**[HP: 1428/1428]**
**[MP: 471/905 (Yin Seal: 90500/90500, can be unsealed)]**
**[EXP: 20/410]**
**[Specialties: Medical Ninjutsu, Puppetry, Sealing]**
**[Combat Rating: A]**
As Hattori reviewed his stats, Karura opened the door.
"Hattori, are you… huh?"
Looking at the puppet sitting on the doorstep, she paused before asking uncertainly,
"Is that… Hattori?"
Hattori: "???"
