Hiding in the sand, splitting into many places, starting with Arkham

It wouldn't be too late to do those things after digesting the knowledge gained from studying in the puppet troop, including the Black Secret Technique.

In addition, Shimizu also wanted the clone to acquire some modern engineering knowledge from Gotham and integrate it into the puppet technique.

As for now, Shimizu planned to first learn the Mind Division technique from the Black Secret Technique.

A puppeteer's weakness in close combat is relative. One reason is that most of their methods are on the puppet, and another is that when manipulating the puppet, a considerable part of their attention is focused on the puppet, leading to neglect of their own protection.

Therefore, ninjas like Konoha White Fang, who have super strong close combat abilities, extremely fast speed, and super strong impact, and can rush to the puppeteer in a short time, are the most restrained against puppeteers.

Mastering the ability to multitask, being able to put more attention back on oneself is actually a way to avoid this situation.

There are other methods as well.

For example, like Chiyo, strengthening one's own speed, fast enough that enemies can't easily catch up.

Or, like Scorpion, transforming oneself into a puppet.

But those are too far away for Shimizu.

Moreover, he prefers to put himself inside the puppet.

This way, he can also have the advantages of the above.

"I can understand it, but theory is theory. The actual operation is really not easy."

Inside the workshop at home, the previous notes were placed on the table. Shimizu spread out his hands, manipulating Fatty with his left hand and Tom with his right hand.

There was also a lonely little boy puppet at his feet.

The little boy's puppet has a higher level and is more difficult to manipulate, so it is not suitable for early practice.

Now Shimizu's shortcoming is that the "ropes" are too thin. The chakra threads are not condensed enough, and his skills can only be considered barely qualified.

In this situation, manipulating two puppets to fight is not as strong as manipulating one puppet in the first place, and may not even be able to fight.

"Bang!"

Fatty was tripped by Tom's foot and fell to the ground.

Shimizu helplessly covered his forehead and turned his gaze to the panel.

Why can't you add some points for me like Deep Blue?

Needless to say, let's keep practicing.

… …

… …

Gotham City.

In a dark alley.

"Crack!"

Shimizu personally twisted the neck of a gang leader who came out of a nightclub, and then quickly searched his body.

This was the most suitable prey he found after choosing for a day.

Two days had passed since he escaped from Arkham Island.

Relying on the Transformation Technique and the information gathering methods mastered as a ninja, Shimizu had already grasped some of the information he needed and could carry out the next step of his plan.

The first step was to get money, get materials, and then find a place to live, first creating a puppet with a certain combat power.

The DC world is a dangerous, high-combat power world, and Gotham is even more simple and honest. You never know when you go out to see an opera, you will be shot in the alley when you go home.

Without mastering sufficiently powerful force to protect yourself, it will be difficult to do anything.

"Four thousand dollars, a little less than I thought, but it's okay, but having this bunch of keys is fine."

Shimizu tossed the keychain in his hand and took off the holster from the gangster boss's waist.

Now he was dressed as a sexy urban beauty.

Not cross-dressing, but using the Transformation Technique to sneak into the nightclub and replace the top brand there. He was originally going to be taken back for the night by this boss.

When passing this alley, Shimizu launched an attack, which led to the current situation.

He made hand seals and activated the Transformation Technique again.

White smoke emerged, and Shimizu transformed into the appearance of the gang leader in an instant. After coughing twice, he strained his voice and shouted a few times, and cursed Batman a few times. After feeling that his voice was close to the original owner, Shimizu walked out of the alley, got into the car, and took out the keychain.

After trying a few times, he quickly started the car.

He had a driver's license in his previous life. Although the cars here were slightly different from those in his previous life, Shimizu quickly got the hang of it.

Ten minutes later.

In front of a bar, Shimizu turned off the engine, parked the car, and walked out of the car door.

"Boss!"

The two security guards in suits in front of the bar saw Shimizu and took the initiative to bow their heads and open the door.

The first mistake is the first mistake, the first release is the first, the first content is the first, the first look is the first!

This large bar was the property of the Black Boss.

"Um."

Shimizu imitated the actions and habits of the original owner that he had observed in the past two days, and walked into the bar with arrogant steps.

First, he ordered a bottle of champagne in the bar as usual, then flirted with the waitress, and then walked upstairs to the second floor with a laugh.

"The office should be in this room."

Shimizu tried each room with the key and finally found his target location.

"That guy was tricked when he was drunk. The bar's income and his personal savings are all in this office."

Shimizu glanced around and then searched the room.

There were six thousand dollars and two magazine pouches in the drawer.

There was women's underwear in the cabinet.

There was an old key left in the corner.

He pushed the bookshelf away, but found no mechanism.

It wasn't until he moved the table that Shimizu found that there wasn't much dust under the table.

"If it wasn't cleaned recently, then it is…"

Shimizu put his finger into the gap in the floor tiles, and with a little force, he pried the tile out.

Inside was a safe.

He tried the keychain again, and finally opened the safe smoothly.

On top of stacks of green US dollars were rows of neatly arranged gold bars.

Five rows and six columns, thirty gold bars.

He picked up one and weighed it in his hand. Shimizu silently estimated the weight and checked the US dollars.

Each gold bar should be the same size and weight. One bar weighs 100 grams. Just these gold bars are probably worth $200,000.

There were thirty stacks of banknotes, and each stack was exactly $10,000.

Adding up to exactly $500,000, it can be considered a huge sum of money.

After all, he was just a small black gang boss.

In the whole of Gotham, there are countless small gangs like this one. It's already good to have a harvest of $500,000.

This money is enough to buy a house in most areas outside of downtown Gotham, and there will even be a lot left over.
