Name: Sasori
Age: --Sasori has Eternal Life---No one knows how old he is---
Village:
Rank: S Rank
Alias: Reikon
Personality:
Out of all the Akatsuki members, the one with the most attitude that was furious and always irritated with stuff that his partner did was Sasori of the Red Sand. But as a child he had always seemed sad due to his lack of his parents being in his life. Sasori started to become more happier each day as Chiyo started to introduce him to Puppetry day after day, teaching him it. Sasori was always happy every since the day he learned how to create puppets. After becoming more experienced with the creation of puppets, he eventually created puppets with the likeness of his parents, but when the puppets couldn't give him the parental love he desired, he became cold and aloof.
As Sasori began to get older and older, he grew a very big emotion that made him leave his village; He possessed a very down-to-earth outlook on life, rarely growing worked up over obstacles that came his way and never showed any extreme emotion to anyone. Even Deidara who was a shinobi that loved to talk alot and get excited to much.
"Don't keep me waiting" was the words that Sasori always said. He was a very impatience man, who had a grudge for making people wait as well. This was one of the reasons why Sasori was also known as a very dangerous opponent to fight because of the way he fought. He fought by rushing his opponent first with carefully dipped poison that would eventually hit the target and end the battle. Every thing he did, he had that impatience personality about it.
Sasori and Deidara had many differences. But the main difference between them was that they both saw art in different ways. Sasori believed that fine art is something wonderful that is left long into the future. Deidara believed that "fine" art was seeing something explode, and making something explode. This was something that would always keep them apart from each other except that Deidara respected Sasori's art and Sasori never respected Deidara's because of the way that he had seen things in life and never was to show any emotion.
Eternal Life was one of the things that Sasori had because of himself becoming a Human Puppet which gave him more intelligence than most people. He could think more smarter than most people and could come up with a battle plan in a mere second of the battle if he could identify his target while in the battle.
Repeatedly, Sasori has demonstrated to be a highly cunning ninja, able to handle situations with various traps and misdirection. He is also shown to be a highly analytical man, able to quickly determine his opponent's strengths and combat methods. Like his grandmother, Sasori has a great knowledge of the human body, as shown from his brainwashing technique and his mastery over creating different types of poisons. His unique poisons, that he laced nearly every weapon in his arsenal with, took effect instantly, and one such poison could kill the target after three days of suffering; according to Sasori, this poison is refined with heavy metals, which gets into the muscles and destroys the cells. This poison was so complex that Sasori correctly acknowledged that no one in Sunagakure could counter it, and believed its complexity made it incurable altogether.
Sasori had fought so many killed so many people before he had joined the Akatsuki which made him a man with a enormous blood lust that would lash at his enemy trying to get them off track of being able to think of how to react. Even though Sasori sometimes was a man of speaking a few words, he would always intimidate his opponent.
Appearance:
When walking around the shinobi world, Sasori never shown his true face or form. He always wore the Hiruko puppet armor that stood on four feet and had a large Akatsuki Jacket covered over it which made him look short to most people. Hiruko also wore a bamboo hat (kasa) to hide their appearance when traveling and would be taking off when entering battle. One of his main features about his face was that Hiruko had a bandanna that covered his nose and every thing below it. Hiruko hair looked similar to if he had cornrows but on the end of each one, he had hair that stood up from out of the back of his head. On the back of Hiruko is a Iron Tail that is extendable and comes with a dangerous amount of weapons installed in this puppet.
Sasori barely revealed his real body because of their was no one out their that could take him to the point of defeating Hiruko and causing him to have to come out of it. But when out of Hiruko which is rarely seen, he has red hair that is very spiky, his body is that of a puppet which is named his "Human Puppet form" that gives him Eternal Life. Around the body of his Human Puppet form he has a pair of spinning claws attached to his lower back, a holder for four scrolls on the back, a stinger in the empty and open stomach cavity, a compartment in the right chest, and a core in the left, his eyes were wide open in a maniacal-like way, as opposed to his normal calm looking eyes.
When Sasori is in the Human Puppet form, he is able to open the right side of his chest to summon the One hundred Puppets. Something that he never used until someone had ever had pushed him to the point of the battle that he would become even more impatience and have to end the battle with it.
Abilities
Sasori was an extremely powerful shinobi, and a highly analytical and cunning man. Sasori's use of his puppets were greatly feared during the Third Shinobi World War as he turned the sand red with blood, thus giving him the nickname "Sasori of the Red Sand". Sasori's abilities also gave him the power to defeat and kill the Third Kazekage, who was said to be the strongest ninja in the history of Sunagakure, though Sasori states that he had some trouble defeating him. Deidara himself even admitted that Sasori was stronger of the two.
The symbol Sasori placed on the puppets he created.
Being trained by his powerful grandmother, Chiyo, in the art, Sasori was a master of puppetry and had great skill in both creating and controlling them. He created a number of ingenious puppets including the three main puppets that Kankurō uses, which he created while in Sunagakure.[8] At the time of the battle that led to his death, he had 298 puppets in his collection.[9] His status as a master puppeteer offered him a tremendous advantage against other puppeteer shinobi, especially if the puppets they were using happened to be formerly his own, as seen in his battle against Kankurō. As puppets are usually installed with long-range weapons, Sasori was an expert at fighting at long distances. Sasori can also control living people as puppets, even against their will, if they are weakened enough. His usage of puppets were at such a high level that he made mere techniques appear as an artistic performance, what he called his "Red Secret Technique".[10]
Sasori's puppet armour: Hiruko.
Hiruko was the first puppet to be shown being used by Sasori in the series. Sasori actually wore this puppet as an armour and weapon, and controlled it from the inside, thus eliminating the puppeteer's weakness of being a separate and exposed target.[11] While within Hiruko, Sasori had a deeper and more hoarse voice. Hiruko was his favourite puppet, such that he adorned it during nearly his entire tenure with Akatsuki, and had it wear the Akatsuki cloak and hat. Sasori used Hiruko so much that many people seemed to have rarely seen Sasori himself in person, as evidenced by Zetsu and Kabuto's responses to seeing that Hiruko was not his actual body. On the other hand, Orochimaru did realise he was not Sasori, implying he had seen Sasori's true face during his time with Akatsuki. During an anime omake, it was shown that Deidara has also seen Sasori's true face while Sasori was doing maintenance of Hiruko.
Hiruko had a long mechanical, scorpion-like tail (an allusion to Sasori's name meaning "scorpion"), extending from the mouth of what appeared to be a demon mask on its back. Chiyo said this mask was a recent addition by Sasori to add extra defence to a weak point in the puppet. The tail worked as Hiruko's main offensive weapon, and was laced with his poison. The tail was also used as an extra defence by spinning it around his body at a rapid speed. Hiruko's left arm was rigged with a projectile launcher capable of firing poisoned shrapnel and needles,[12] and its mouth could also be used to serve a similar function of firing poisoned needles.
Hiruko is only said to have been a human puppet in the anime, from a once famous Sunagakure shinobi that Sasori converted upon death. In the manga it was just a regular puppet.
Human Puppetry
Main article: Human Puppet
Sasori's puppets were unique in that they were made from the still-living bodies of humans. These human puppets were more versatile than regular puppets, since, in addition to having many dangerous devices installed within them (as is common with regular puppets), they were also able to use chakra and perform technique. Any techniques or kekkei genkai abilities possessed by the converted human were also passed onto the puppet.
Third Kazekage
The Third Kazekage as Sasori's puppet.
Sasori's favourite human puppet was the Third Kazekage, which retained its Magnet Release, which in turn grants Sasori access to the Iron Sand techniques. When mixed with Sasori's poison, the Iron Sand was given a more lethal edge. The Iron Sand could also be used to fill up the joints of other puppets, thus immobilising them. Due to the Iron Sand being derived from the Third's ability to convert chakra to magnetism, this grants Sasori immunity from metallic weapons. The Third's puppet's right arm held several poisoned blades, while the left arm could open up to reveal several summoning seals that summoned thousands of similar arms to attack the target. These arms were capable of crushing an opponent, emitting poisonous gas clouds, and releasing wires that dragged the opponent into the gas cloud. If these arms were cut off, a small buzz-saw took their place.
Sasori's puppet body.
Although Sasori was thirty-five years old, he maintained the appearance of a teenage boy. Sasori's unnaturally young appearance was a product of his design. Aside from his heart, Sasori's body was actually a puppet. In place of his stomach was a thick cable coiled around a pole, allowing Sasori to use it as a stinger and retract it if necessary. Attached to his back was a scroll holder, containing four scrolls that stored extra armament. The first scroll allowed him to fire powerful streams of fire, and the second scroll was used to store numerous puppets for the Red Secret Technique: Performance of a Hundred Puppets. The capabilities of the third and fourth scrolls were not revealed in the manga, though in the anime the fourth scroll is used to fire jets of water with enough force to cut through rock. Sasori also has a pair of poles attached to the back of his hips, each equipped with five large blades that could spin like a propeller, granting him both a way to move faster and a monstrous close combat weapon, and pipes to each of his hands that could spew out intense fire, hot enough to even melt rock, or, in the anime, powerful water jets with such pressure that they were capable of cutting through rock.
Despite being loaded with weapons, Sasori kept them (and his true form) hidden with his Akatsuki robes, which were large enough to conceal them without problem. Curiously, when using "himself", Sasori's eyes were always wide open, giving him a somewhat maniacal look. In contrast, prior to revealing his puppet body, they were always half-closed, making him appear calmer and aloof. Sasori has claimed that he has not used "himself" since joining Akatsuki, until his last battle with his grandmother and Sakura Haruno.
Installed in the right part of his chest was a mechanism that could spin numerous Chakra Threads, allowing Sasori to use his Red Secret Technique: Performance of a Hundred Puppets. With it, he was given a drastic advantage over other puppeteers, such that he claimed to have taken down an entire country with it. Sasori's left part of his chest held the only part of him still human and thus the only, and necessary, part of his body capable of controlling chakra: a cylinder-shaped device containing his heart.
The only living part left of Sasori
Because Sasori's heart was the only living part of himself, his puppet body was virtually indestructible, allowing him to survive the poison mist Kankuro; bombarded him with, as well as the impact from Sakura's punches. He was also able to fight for extended periods of time without hindrances that would normally affect a human's body, such as fatigue, muscle failure, loss of blood, wounds and pain. When smashed apart, he could simply draw the pieces back together. Additionally, he could transfer his heart to other puppets in a split second, allowing him to abandon a body should it be damaged beyond repair or otherwise incapacitated. It is suggested in the manga that Sasori created more than one puppet body in his image. The core was his only weakness, and its destruction would mean his death. After Sasori's death, Kankuro; would later take the body and use it as his puppet.
Hiruko
Hiruko (ヒルコ, Hiruko) is a puppet used by the Akatsuki shinobi, Sasori. As a puppet, he served as Sasori's "puppet armour", as Sasori was capable of hiding inside of it. Sasori even adorned Hiruko with the Akatsuki's robes, and hid inside it so often that others came to recognise him only when he was wearing it. In the anime, Hiruko is a human puppet made from the corpse of a renowned shinobi. According to Chiyo, Hiruko was Sasori's favorite puppet.
Abilities/Weapons: All weapons installed in Hiruko were coated in Sasori's special brand of poison, which would kill the victim after three days of painful paralysis.
- Extendible iron tail provided offence by stabbing and defence by rotating around the body.
- Heavy back shell for additional defence. A new addition since Chiyo last saw it 20 years ago.
- Rapid launching of senbon from the mouth.
- Torpedo-shaped left arm that launches shrapnel of senbon in all directions. A new addition since Chiyo last saw it 20 years ago.
- Granted Sasori a gruffer voice.
Third Kazekage
This is the puppet created by Sasori from the body of Sunagakure's Third Kazekage. After being converted into a human puppet, Sasori installed several weapons into his body. The efforts that Sasori went through to get the puppet made it his favourite. In the end, Sakura Haruno destroyed the puppet, and in the anime, when Chiyo tried to use the head to attack Sasori, he simply incinerated it. All of the weapons installed in the Third Kazekage puppet, including his Iron Sand, are soaked in Sasori's special brand of poison, which kills the victim after three days of painful paralysis.
Abilities/Weapons:
- Retractable blades in the formation of a claw on the right arm.
- Thousand Hands Manipulation Force.
- Hidden buzz saw in the left arm.
- Iron Sand abilities (stored within and externally released from the mouth).
- Retractable scythe hidden in right arm.
- Magnetic apparatus stored inside left chest compartment.
Water Stream Shooters
Sasori can shoot pressurized streams of water from the pipes in his palms, similar to a water cannon. By twisting his wrists like knobs, Sasori can condense the streams into water jet cutters that can slice through rocks. It uses the fourth scroll on his back as ammunition.
Flame
Sasori can shoot fire from the pipes in its hands, making them like flamethrowers. The flames are fierce enough to melt rocks and incinerate a metal kunai that was thrown at it near instantly. The ammunition is sealed in the the first scroll on its back.
Poison
Sasori had developed such a poison that even if a small amount is introduced into the bloodstream, the affected person will die within three days while also being painfully paralysed for the duration. This poison is refined with heavy metals which gets into the muscles and destroys the cells. The antidote for this poison is extremely complex - so much so that no one in Sunagakure was capable of creating it.
Senbon
Senbon are metal needles with a point at both ends. They often serve a medical purpose, being used to strike acupuncture points. They have little killing power, but can be thrown with great accuracy. A user with proper medical knowledge however, can effectively use senbon in battle to incapacitate or even kill their target should they aim for vital spots. To make these needles more effective, the user can poison the tips of the senbon. An added benefit of throwing these at the enemy is that these are smaller than a kunai or a shuriken, making it harder to see and dodge. Sasori's Senbon are carefully dipped into his poison to make them even more dangerous.
History
Before Sasori became a Puppet menace of the Akatsuki, he lived in Sunagakure and was a used to love everything about his life until his parents were killed. Sasori was forced to grow up with no parents which was the reason that he seen the world the way he did. His parents were killed by a Hatake but not just some random one, it was the Fang of Konohagakure. When his parents died, he was always seen walking around the village with a very sad face until Granny Chiyo became responsible for him. Losing his parents became a reward but a flaw as well. Because of him losing his parents, Granny Chiyo had tried to cheer him up by teaching him the art making of puppets.
Sasori learned to make puppets at the age of five, becoming very experienced at it. He became even lonelier as the days went by until Sasori had made a creation of his mother and dad. This got rid of the sadness and trouble of having a smile on his face. But because they were only a mere puppet, he began to depart from loving them and went back to his old evil way of seeing the world. As Sasori took less care of them, they later fell into the hands of Granny Chiyo who turned them into a strong puppet that could fight through most obstacles. Sasori proved to be a born natural at the art, even devising masterful ways of eliminating a puppet master's weakness.
When Sasori became even older, he began creating more puppets that spread around Sunagakure and became very popular puppets. Sasori created so many puppets that he would forget if they were his so he placed a scorpion tag some where on them. More and more Sasori began to gain more of the loneliness attitude and at the age of fifteenth he felt as though he was done with Sunagakure and left the village. When he left the village, he left behind a sign that he was a big threat by killing the Third Kazekage (although his involvement in the Third's disappearance would not be discovered until around the time of his death). Once becoming a Missing Shinobi, he later on had his body turned into a Human Puppet with many newly installed weapons implanted on himself.
Sometime after leaving the village and becoming a Human Puppet, Sasori joined Akatsuki, and was eventually paired with Orochimaru. They had great respect for each other during their partnership, and did many things together, killing alot of shinobi at their time. After Orochimaru left Akatsuki (after a failed attempt at stealing fellow member Itachi Uchiha's body), Sasori was paired with Deidara who no one took seriously when he first joined the Akatsuki but Pein did it because of one thing they both had in common. A way of seeing Art. Later on after learning about each other, they were given the job to capture the Shukaku. Will they Succeed or will it be the end of this newly formed partnership fast...
