He could even feel the anxiety changing his thought and speech patterns, his very grammar was changing for the worse. Fascinating.
Noting the oddity for further dissection later, Hito shifted his weight between both legs and confirmed all systems were working properly. He was once again possessing a puppet and changing its appearance to match his own. This would be a good test of how human the final result looked, and he hoped it was with fluid confidence that he strode into the room that should have been seated full of shinobi that got one of his hand crafted letters that would have been mysteriously delivered to somewhere strange only they would find, and it had a Kazekage seal.
Not bothering to disguise himself or do any awkward small talk, Hito began speaking the moment his calculations assured him everyone in the room would be able to hear his voice. A calculation that was rather fun once he started accounting for the material of each participants clothing and how that'd further affect the sound dampening.
They were in a large auditorium, a typical mid-sized academy lecture hall. The only difference is this one was clearly utilized by more advanced students as the walls, desks and just about every usable space was occupied by documents, tools and random items.
"Thank you all for coming and waiting. We can do introductions soon, but first I wnat you all to understand why you are here." As he spoke and moved towards the front of the room, invisible chakra strings began to sprout from his body and worm their way outwards. "We live in a society that is years behind where it could be. Our people starve when they could be full, we grope in the darkness when we could be dancing in the light, and we dont so much as even know our own history to be able to use to guide our path forwards."
Timing the cadence of his speech and the word choice perfectly so that it ended just as he reached the foot of the stage, but turned instead of standing on it and continued speaking. Meanwhile, his chakra strings reached every corner of the room and were hooking into many different spots and objects.
"You are all here because I've identified you as people that have the skills or the talent to help fix all that. I have considered it carefully and have deemed that if even 30% of this room remain to work together, we will achieve a majority of my goals. Some of which you can see here." With a touch of dramatic flair that Hito could almost swear caused his intestines eyes to roll, his chakra strings tugged and a variety of objects moved into place. Documents unfurled, books opened, notes and posters flipped. The prepped room was suddenly legible and visible for all to see.
"I want you all to get up and look around the room and talk to each other. Read the projects and objectives, decide which ones interest you and rank in them in order of priority to you. Once you're ready to discuss further, sit back down and I'll give you a proper introduction. Everyone here is free to leave at any time. "
And with that, Hito would sit down on the stage and watch, clearly not wanting to engage any further and expecting them to follow his instructions.
