**Notable Attacks/Techniques:**

* **Puppet Technique:** is the core skill of a puppeteer's (傀儡使い, *kugutsutsukai*) fighting style, whereby they control a puppet.
* **Mother and Father: Mother** (母, *Haha*) and **Father** (父, *Chichi*) were the first two puppets Sasori ever created, modelled after his real mother and father, who were killed by Sakumo Hatake during a war.
* **Mechanical Light Shield Block:** This technique is a chakra-based shield that is used to defend against attacks. This form of defence is usually installed into puppets, where the user opens their segmented arms and radiates chakra through to form a light blue, thin shield. While it is powerful enough to block iron sand constructs, the sand will still seep into the joints of the puppets, which will restrict their movements, and thereby, stop the technique from functioning.
* **Puppet Performance: Skilful Achievement with a Human Body:** A puppet performance technique where chakra threads are attached to various spots on a person's body; the head, torso, both arms, and both legs. The person being manipulated gains the ability to not only use their own techniques, but the skills of the puppeteer as well.

* **White Secret Technique: The Chikamatsu Collection of Ten Puppets:** After unravelling the carrying scroll, the Chikamatsu Collection appears from the gate (門, mon) crest. Using the Puppet Technique to manipulate them at will is what is known as the "an amount matching ones fingers" (指に数, Yubi ni sū) method. With this puppet collection it is literally possible to use one puppet with each finger each boasting a power matching a thousand puppets put together. However, to use all of these secret mechanisms demands extremely high-class expertise and skill.
* **Three Jewels Suction Crushing:** This technique is a performance by puppets 6, 7, and 8 of the Chikamatsu Collection. The three puppets get into a triangular formation and by opening the mechanisms marked with "Buddha", "Dharma", and "Sangha", respectively, they invoke this technique. A terrifying tornado breaks out and sucks the targets into the centre of the formation. Everything that is sucked into the centre is completely crushed with tremendous force and shot out from the back. However, the vacuum can be overloaded, leaving the three puppets vulnerable to attacks.
* **Sealing Technique: Lion Closing Roar:** This sealing technique completely blocks the target's chakra with a sealing formula (封印式, *fūin-shiki*) drawn on the ground or a wall. This is done by closing all the tenketsu of the person caught in the middle. When the target is sealed, a stylised kanji for *"close"* or *"shut"* (閉, *hei*) appears in the middle of the sealing formula.
