Red sand dust

Although Daimaru vaguely remembered that Gaara did have a disciple, was it really appropriate to accept him now?

Glancing at Gaara's two followers not far behind, Daimaru thought with some confusion.

These two young chuunin are two assistants arranged by the Shadow Guards. They are in the same nature as attendants who take care of personal affairs. They are not considered formal positions, but are Gaara's personal servants.

Although they had met several times, Daimaru could never remember their names. The two were not brothers and had no relationship, but they looked a bit similar, with slightly handsome and comely ordinary faces, but no special features at all.

It is said that he is a servant carefully selected by Ma Ji. His presence is a little thin, but he is considered a suitable candidate.

Sensing that Kazekage and Daimaru were probably going to talk about something private, the two consciously moved a little further away.

"Have you thought about it? In another two years..."

Daimaru suggested in a low voice.

Gaara is still more than half a month away from being fourteen years old, and the ninja school graduates are probably around twelve or thirteen years old.

As a Kazekage, he definitely doesn't have time to teach children the basics. He must be a ninja school graduate with at least some basic knowledge.

It always feels a bit strange to accept people of the same age as students and disciples.

"It doesn't matter, I'm very optimistic about that child's will..."

"As long as you are satisfied!"

Daimaru nodded, although he felt a little inappropriate, it was not a big deal;

"Why do you suddenly want to accept a disciple? Do you think that having a descendant to inherit will make you appear more mature and make people ignore your age?"

Gaara shook his head and replied:

"Not entirely! The main reason is that I think we should do this! The training of ninjas in Konoha Village has been very successful, we can also try it..."

"Start with Kazekage and lead by example?"

"almost!"

The ninja school in Sunagakure Village and the advanced ninja leadership system are actually imitated by Konoha Village, but they only learned the surface, and most of its core is missing.

The original intention was to popularize ninja education and train civilian ninjas to enrich their strength, but in the end they fell into the old path of brutal and disorderly competition and elite training.

In the past, there was no way, the village was under too much pressure; now that the situation has improved, it cannot be like it was in the past. An extensive training management model will only waste the talents of the next generation.

The first thing Gaara thinks of is to do a good job with the purpose of bringing in the old with the new, enriching the inheritance, and carrying it forward.

"Which one is your target?"

"That little girl with brown hair..."

"The one with the rope dart?"

Daimaru narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the seemingly unremarkable student.

She is pretty, but not stunning. She is dressed in an ordinary way, and she probably doesn't belong to a wealthy family. She looks a bit like a girl next door.

Underneath her gentle face, there is also a hint of heroic spirit. Just looking at her temperament, she should be a motivated girl.

Most of the students in the ninja school enter the school when they are around seven years old. After five years of schooling, they graduate at the age of twelve or thirteen, but things are not so absolute.

Some children develop slowly due to congenital or acquired factors, and may not enter school until they are eight, nine or even ten years old. The disciple Gaara is interested in may be smaller than Gaara in size, but he may still be older. A little bigger.

There is no before or after in learning, those who master come first!

Daimaru is not a pedantic person. Even if the girl is older than Gaara, there is nothing wrong with the Kazekage Fifth Daime accepting her as a disciple.

The relieved Daimaru looked at it with interest and then turned his attention to the others.

"Would you like to accept a few students? It would be a pity if such good skills are lost..."

"Let's talk about it in two years. I'm too busy and don't have time to teach. I'm afraid I'll mislead my children..."

student? How many more?

Daimaru laughed and shook his head in refusal. After the Fourth Ninja War, he might consider that now is not the time.

"That's fine!"

On Daimaru's slightly relaxed face, he casually glanced at the students below who were practicing the manipulation of ninja tools under the guidance of the instructor. Suddenly, he discovered something unexpected.

"Huh?"

A slightly shorter boy standing behind everyone fell into Daimaru's eyes. To be precise, it was a light gray wooden four-legged beast-shaped puppet behind him.

"What's wrong?"

"What happened to that puppet?"

Daimaru indicated the direction with his eyes, and Gaara looked over.

"you do not know?"

Gaara asked in surprise.

"Should I know? Wait... During the time I was on the south coast, something interesting happened in the village..."

Chakra gathered along the meridians to his eyes, sensing the rhythm of the surrounding natural energy. In the empty void, a faint energy wave spread from behind the strange puppet into the distance.

"Necromanticism? Or blood contract and spiritual synchronization? It seems to be a little bit of both. It can also maintain contact with the fluctuation of natural energy. It seems to be the power of Yin Escape..."

After looking at it carefully for a few minutes, Daimaru concluded that this thing had little to do with the production of Daimaru Puppet Workshop. At most, it borrowed a few parts with scarce materials.

Looking back, Daimaru asked curiously:

"Whose handiwork are those?"

"Not one person, but a group of people..."

Gaara replied slowly,

"Probably stimulated by the huge profits made by your puppet workshop from a series of sales, rentals, services and other businesses, some puppet masters joined forces and created the concept of 'psychic puppets'. Based on a group of high-quality puppets, it was opened to some Young ninjas use..."

"So, it's been going on for a while?"

"Um!"

Following Gaara's answer, Daimaru couldn't help but feel huge waves in his heart.

"The wisdom of the indigenous people should not be underestimated. I didn't even plan to get to that point. They just started playing "shared puppets" on their own. 』

Daimaru estimates that it will take at least thirty to fifty years for the ninja world to develop into the Internet era, without a ninja war that affects the entire ninja world and causes great damage.

Unexpectedly, Daimaru's relatively advanced business model put too much pressure on the traditional puppet masters, forcing them to break out in this direction.

"Sharing", a strategy originated from the Internet information age, does not have much technical content in itself, but as long as it has basic support, it can maximize the integration of resources, optimize the industrial chain, and improve efficiency.

The technological level of Sunagakure Village is still far behind, but the ninja world has extraordinary power. The deficiencies can be made up by ninjutsu. Using some special techniques, it can even avoid many pain points of the "sharing economy" in the era of electronic information and the Internet.

What makes Daimaru curious is whether the "shared puppet" model can survive with the size of Sunagakure Village. At least for now, it seems that there are still many "technical" merits.
