Deep in the sands to north of the Suna shinobi who were going about their own daily routines in teams of three, three on guard, three on patrol, and three resting, only a tiny black hood protruded from the wind blown sand as the rest of the 'Reaper' puppet body was concealed beneath the sand. Not only that the puppet body shinobi was also around three miles away from the outpost and utilized his 'Sniper Eye' to increase his vision similar to that of a scope or telescope that allowed for him to adjust to see the outpost and gain some reconnaissance on how it operated. Not needing to eat or sleep...or even breath for that matter, the former shinobi was familiar with the locations of these outposts and had selected one that was closest to his own current base of operations in case the need occurred in which he had to quickly flee. For the past week the man had been quietly observing the happenings within the outpost and judging the routine and shift changes for the shinobi. Every three days it appeared that a new squad would come relieve these ten shinobi on post allowing for them to venture back to the village for rest and recovery time.
Hyoryu was able to bide his time, with no need to act to carelessly on such a mission, dealing with that man and his village could bring in a great deal of money for him and the organization and it would be in his best interest not to fuck this up. While he was no push over all three of the elders were on a level much higher than his own person level and he didn't want to get on their bad side, especially owing two of the three elders favors. To reach his own goals he would needs to pay of those debts and raise his own personal strength to at least their levels. Barely exposed from the ground the man watched with the golden color eye that had opened from the forehead of the black armored head of the large puppet body, learning the patterns as the time to strike was growing near. The shinobi had just swapped out this morning and the next group wouldn't be here to three days which would allow for him to strike and if successful go unnoticed for two or three days which would allow for him enough time to retrograde after collecting what he'd come to here retrieve.
Currently it was still early in the morning and the sun had just risen above the eastern sands, it was almost time to begin but he was waiting...waiting on one person who might be able to cause him the most problems in this scenario. That being the jounin commander whom was ultimately in charge of the outpost and the shinobi who stood watch within its perimeters. If he wasn't able to dispose of that shinobi first then it would make things much more complex, more so than this needed to be for the man. For someone on or near his own skill level as a shinobi it was best to take the element of surprise in dealing with them but first things first...that person needed to show themselves this morning...what were they doing anyways, sleeping in on the job? 'Range, a bit over 4600 meters. Wind coming from the west at 10 kmph..' In his head the former man was already calculating just how hard of a shot it would be from this range...

Description: Contained within the center of the puppet body's forehead is a red eye known as the 'Sniper Eye' and when activated by the user channeling chakra into it and shutting both eyes and focusing solely on this eye it will open revealing the crimson eyes. This allows for the puppet eye to extend the vision of the user out to a maximum of [(Instinct+Deftness)/2]/5 miles, but causes for their vision to become tunneled.
(35+25)/2 = 30/5 = 6 mile max
