To put it bluntly, Sasori was indeed a genius. As long as he was a genius, he would have the arrogance and strength that he should have. Indeed, Sasori's talent in puppetry had reached the peak of perfection. Even the first generation of puppeteers might not have Sasori's brain, talent, and madness.
However, it was precisely because of this that he was overly superstitious about his own strength. Until his death, he was overly superstitious about his own strength. In other words, when he fought with Chiyo and Sakura, Sasori was overly superstitious about his own strength and underestimated the combat power that Chiyo and Sakura could unleash.
According to AB's description of Scorpio's death in the "Book of Sages", with Scorpio's personality, there was no way he would let Chiyo win. Even if he couldn't bear to do it, his actions would not change because he was the kind of person who was stubborn and refused to face his true thoughts. If he really wanted to be merciful, he wouldn't do it because such thoughts had already violated his understanding of ninja.
The only explanation was that he was too confident in his own strength. Chiyo and Sakura cracked his ninjutsu again and again, hitting the bottom line in his heart again and again, which made it difficult for him to accept. After the appearance of "Father" and "Mother", Sasori had been in a trance and reminiscence state, which made him have no intention of continuing to fight. It was precisely because of this that Sasori couldn't really exert his full strength and was killed by the combination of Chiyo and Sakura.
Fundamentally speaking, Sasori was a person who cared very much about his face, cared very much about other people's opinions, and had extremely strong self-esteem. After this kind of emotional performance materialized, it made him irrational and manic in battle. He didn't even look carefully at whether he had really caught Shen or not, and directly used a set of combination punches.
Shen, who was floating directly above Sasori, crossed his arms and looked at Sasori with pity. He knew that Sasori was almost broken by him, and there was no point in playing with him anymore. Shen felt that it was a pity. At any rate, Scorpion was a character that Shen admired quite a bit in the past. Unexpectedly, Scorpion was such a weak character. This was something that Shen had not expected. Originally, he had only wanted to see how strong Scorpion was.
But judging from Sasori's performance, he didn't deserve the evaluation of the Book of Sages. His comprehensive strength was only ranked third under Itachi and Jiraiya. Instead of saying that he's a genius, it's better to say that he's a paranoid child like Sasuke who has great strength but doesn't have a matching temperament.
Shen sighed softly. Only now did he understand the true meaning of the phrase, 'it is better not to see each other'. Even if they do not meet, the good impression he had of her might be shattered. "Is this all you've got?"
Since Shen had already witnessed Scorpion's strength, he had no intention of playing around anymore. He could not help but say, "If this is all you have, then I'm sorry, but you should die again."
Scorpion was shocked. "When?" Earlier, Sasori was certain that Celest had been surrounded by his Iron Sand Strike. Otherwise, he would not have dared to use Combination Fist Ninjutsu. Although his current Chakra amount is equivalent to infinite, it's still easy to be defeated if he uses old moves.
Sasori's legs bounced and quickly left his original position. Even though he was now in a state of hysteria, his high vigilance still prompted him to subconsciously leave his original position. The combat awareness he had developed over the years told him that if he didn't dodge, he might really die again.
Sure enough, less than a second after Scorpion jumped away, a raging flame appeared where he was originally standing. It was the Amaterasu's black flames that had burned Scorpion Crimson Flow Hu to death.
"You bastard!" Sasori gritted his teeth and stared at Shen with a strong sense of unyieldingness. "How the hell did you escape my perception?"
"Trying to avoid your perception …" Shen tilted his head. "Is it that difficult?" What kind of joke is this? Shen has now become the Juubi's Jinchuriki. He can almost perfectly control the flow of Chakra all over his body. When facing Sasori, it's like a max level big account bullying a newbie who hasn't graduated from the Novice Village. Isn't it easy to avoid Sasori's perception?
"Seeing that you're more or less a character that I admire, I'll give you a decent death." Shen's body gradually rose into the air, as if his body began to float in space without the control of gravity. "Remember, don't be so conceited in your next life."
"Damn it …" Sasori could not help but feel humiliated. He felt that Shen had never fought him head-on since the beginning. From the beginning until now, it was as if he was singing a one-man show. Otherwise, how could someone who could destroy his puppet in one move and kill Dedale in one move not fight back after taking so many moves from him?
Thinking of this, Sasori could not help but sigh. His strong self-esteem made him lose himself. All this was just an excuse. Rather than saying that his self-esteem caused trouble, it was better to say that he did not want to believe that Shen was a genius more talented than him.
Perhaps Scorpion had known from the very beginning that he was no match for Shen. Yet, he had still chosen to attack Shen. Although part of the reason for that was because he was being controlled by Dou, it was more because he was unwilling to admit defeat. That's right, Scorpion had been forcing himself to fight since the very beginning.
Shen, who was flying higher and higher, looked down at Sasori, who was now only a black dot in the sky. The corner of his mouth could not help but curve. "In that case, I will use this move to send you on your way."
"Fire Release Dragon Flame Song Jutsu!"
Several fire dragons were spat out from Uchiha Shen's mouth. They were not like the Edo Tensei Madara who only had one dragon head, but a whole dragon. However, the target of Shen's attack was not Sasori on the ground, but the sky above Shen.
Several fire dragons entangled and circled higher in the sky. They kept circling and roaring, as if they wanted to turn the whole sky into a sea of fire.
At this time, Sasori looked up at the sky and easily discovered Shen's movements, but what puzzled him was that Shen's ninjutsu was not aimed at him, but at the sky. He did not believe that Shen's ninjutsu was accidentally released.
