Pupet Master in Konoha

Chapter 99: Chapter 99: The Premonition of a Big Bad Movie



Before the registration for the training course ended, Hideki promised to open the puppetry classroom to all students.

The purpose is to allow them to come here during their spare time and exercise their chakra control by practicing controlling pocket puppet beasts.

However, in order to take care of his students' super VIP experience, he did not implement this measure immediately.

But recently, the children's resentment about this has accumulated to a great extent.

Whenever he walked in the school, he would receive either resentful or pitiful stares from the children, and he felt like he had committed a heinous crime.

So Hideki had to fulfill his promise earlier and opened the puppetry classroom to everyone last week, which made everyone very happy.

However, because of this, the puppetry classroom is now occupied, and the crew's preparations are being held in a remote training ground in the school.

When Hideki brought Obito and Shisui here, he saw everyone was busy with various preparations.

Behind the scenes staff like Ebisu, Ibiki are making the props and equipment needed for the movie.

Actors like Yuhi Kurenai and others were either reading the script or acting with each other.

There were also a few little boys, led by Asuma, playing with yo-yos, making it difficult for Hideki to tell whether they were practicing or just slacking off.

"Rin, why are you here too?"

As soon as Obito saw Nohara Rin, he forgot everything and ran over with his tail wagging.

"I'm helping to sew clothes for the actors."

Rin looked up and gave Obito a smile, then lowered her head and continued working.

These days, she and several other little girls around her have accepted the commission from Teacher Hideki and are making the necessary costumes for the crew.

But compared to those little girls, her sewing technique seems to be a little different...

At this time, Obito also followed Rin's gaze and focused his attention on her hands.

As a result, he was surprised to find that Rin's fingers were not holding the needle and thread at all, but were releasing chakra threads from her fingertips, pulling the thin thread back and forth quickly on the cloth.

In a short while, rows of dense and neat stitches appeared, sewing the two pieces of cloth together tightly.

"Wow, Rin, you are amazing!"

Obito said in amazement.

He has made rapid progress recently under the guidance of Mr. Hideki, and can't help but feel a little proud of himself.

I didn't expect that Rin had made so much progress without any notice.

However, Rin seemed dissatisfied with this and shook her head.

"Thank you, but I'm still far behind Mr. Hideki."

"And this is just the basic application of chakra lines. Everyone will learn it in class later. I just learned it in advance."

The little girls standing by were speechless upon hearing this.

Because after getting the teacher's approval, Rin had already shared her knowledge in this area with them without reservation, even the little tricks she had researched herself were no exception.

But after practicing for a long time, they still couldn't reach Rin's level. In order to avoid wasting fabric, they could only sew by hand like primitive people.

This made them all a little envious of Rin.

Could this be the strength of the strongest person whose chakra control has recently increased to eight points?

However, what they didn't know was that Rin was not in Versailles.

Because the more she improved her chakra control and understanding of chakra lines, the more she realized how unfathomable her teacher's level in this area was.

Even the operations performed casually with chakra lines during class contained countless techniques that were enough to be called showmanship, which made her marvel and even made her scalp tingle.

Seeing such miraculous skills every now and then has distorted Rin's cognition. How can she dare to be proud of her small progress?

Now she only hopes to earn more points through working in this crew so that she can ask the teacher for some guidance and continue to explore the mysteries in depth.

Afterwards, Obito ignored the other girls' rolling eyes and stayed there to continue chatting awkwardly with Rin.

Until a commotion came from the actors' area.

"Hey, it looks like they're about to start auditions for the leading role, and the one being auditioned is that genius Uchiha Shisui!"

Many gossipy children were already shouting to their friends.

Obito then remembered about his younger brother's audition, and Rin and the others decided to take a break and go join in the fun.

So everyone walked together towards where the crowd gathered.

It turned out that Hideki had already taken Shisui to greet the actors, and gave him a script and a yo-yo to practice for a while. Now it was time for the audition.

In an open space, Shisui and Genma, who was helping to act and played the role of Mike, were standing about ten meters away, waiting for the teacher's signal to start.

When the children who had read the script saw this scene, they knew it was the first act of the script and their expressions became a little strange.

Because when they read the script, they felt that the plot of this scene was too abstract and a little inexplicable, and they didn't know whether the actual performance would be any better...

Seeing that Shisui and Genma were ready and the surroundings had become quiet, Hideki shouted,

"Action!"

After a few seconds, seeing that the two did not move, he added awkwardly: "Start!"

This time the two finally moved...

They both took a few steps forward in steady steps, and only stopped and looked at each other when they were five or six meters apart.

A hint of fighting spirit surged in the eyes of the two men and began to accumulate gradually, and where their eyes met, lightning and sparks that seemed real kept colliding.

There is no need for verbal communication between men.

When the four eyes meet, it is time to decide the outcome.

In a short while, the fighting spirit of the two men reached its peak at the same time, and a tragic battle seemed to be about to break out...

The next moment, the two of them each took out a yo-yo and started performing various yo-yo moves on their own.

I fell!

The little ninjas who were watching almost fell to the ground.

Although they had read the script, the huge contrast between the beginning and the end of the scene still shocked them.

Why is it that the first part of the film is full of the momentum of the battle in the Valley of the End, but then they suddenly start playing yo-yo happily?

However, this is just the appetizer, and the more outrageous things are still to come.

After Shisui and Genma played with the yo-yo for a few times, they suddenly raised it high, made a mysterious pose and shouted:

"Divine Eagle Spreads Wings!"

"Green Holy Light!"

Then... nothing happened at the scene...

However, the two actors still kept posing, because the script clearly stipulated that this action had to last for thirty seconds...

During these short yet long thirty seconds, many students watching began to think about life.

Who am I, where am I, and what am I doing?

If the yo-yo duel just now was just a little out of place, then the current scene has already gone beyond everyone's understanding...

Finally, after the 30 seconds that had made everyone extremely tormented, the two finally had the opportunity to say their only three serious lines.

Shisui: "I will definitely surpass you."

Kurenai: "In the eyes of the world, my Western speed style is the most powerful."

Shisui: "I will definitely come back for the next tournament."

Little Ninjas: "..."

( ̄_ ̄;) ( ̄□ ̄;) ( ̄_ ̄;)

All right.

Although these three sentences are incoherent, we can still barely infer a certain relationship between the two characters.

But after the previous confrontation that could be described as performance art, no one cared about the grudges between the two characters anymore. They just wanted to know when the mental hospital would take them back.

But there was actually one person present who was quite satisfied with this...

"Card!"

Hideki smiled and clapped his hands,

"Very good, Shisui, it looks like there will be no problem with this scene."

This is a big problem!

The little ninjas were all complaining wildly in their hearts!

Of course, the problem wasn't Shisui's audition performance.

To be honest, the fact that they were able to act this thing out so seriously, everyone wants to give them the Best Actor award.

The real problem is that the plot is so abstract that it's hard to understand what it's talking about.

Seeing Mr. Hideki's name on the script cover, everyone fell silent.

It turns out that there is no perfect person in this world.

Although Mr. Hideki is young, handsome, talented, gentle and polite to others.

But in terms of the aesthetic level of the story, it is simply horrible!

Everyone expressed their understanding of this, and even felt more familiar with the teacher because he was more down-to-earth.

But if this movie is made according to this script, it will definitely fail!

Hideki naturally noticed everyone's strangeness and didn't take it seriously.

After all, they knew a lot about filming!

Although Hideki didn't know much either, he had seen a lot of behind-the-scenes footage of movies.

Even those popular Hollywood special effects blockbusters had awkward acting during filming!

However, Hideki also began to realize a problem.

Now it seems that in this ninja world where even basic film techniques are still in the exploratory stage, such shooting techniques are indeed a bit advanced and difficult to understand.

To put it bluntly, this crew is just a makeshift team stuck together by a few points rewards.

If everyone keeps this skeptical attitude, it is likely to affect work efficiency.

So after Hideki pondered for a moment, he decided to give everyone some reassurance.

Then he suddenly clapped his hands and said with a smile:

"Oh, by the way, time is running out, and since the lead actor has been decided, why don't we start shooting the first scene now..."
