Red Secret Technique: Performance of a Hundred Puppets


 * Name:
 * Type: S-rank, Offensive, Defensive, All ranges
 * User: Sasori
 * Debut (Anime): Shippūden Episode 26
 * Debut (Manga): Chapter 272

To begin this jutsu, Sasori removed one summoning scroll from his back. He then opened his right chest compartment to emit one hundred chakra strings, which then reached into the scrolls. From the scrolls, one hundred human puppets emerged, each one a defeated and converted opponent of Sasori.

As even the most elite of puppeteers cannot control more than ten puppets a time (one per finger), this technique is proof of Sasori's superiority in regards to the Puppet Technique. Also, normally a puppet's movement is dependent on the will of the user, and as such will have a time lag between the user's commands and the puppet's response. However, since these hundred puppets were directly connected to the core, there was no time lag between Sasori's will and the puppets' movements.

Sasori claimed that he had brought down an entire country with this jutsu. Many of the puppets, however, were destroyed during Sasori's battle with Chiyo and Sakura Haruno, although they did manage to destroy some of Chiyo's puppets. While these one hundred puppets lacked teamwork, they apparently used sheer attrition to wear down their opponents.
