Summer of the 55th year of the Konoha calendar, Earth Country.
Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Ingakaki met the Scorpion of Red Sand, who was holding a ring with the word "Jade" on behalf of the Jade Girl. He was an ugly middle-aged man like a ball, with a hoarse voice, but his body was not flesh, and there was a Scorpion behind him.
A steel tail like a tail.
Kisame Kisaki asked: "In that temple?"
"Yeah, he's a nasty little kid, but he's pretty strong, and those bombs he made can come in handy," Xie said.
"What a bomb, that's art, art." A teenage boy with yellow hair covering half of his face ran out to protest, "Do you guys understand what art is? Let me tell you..."
Xie couldn't help complaining: "Do I have to take this long-winded guy back?"
"There is no way, the leader's order." Uchiha Itachi said.
Deidara discovered the problem, "Uh, who are you? Do you know me?"
Kisame Inikaki asked: "Recently, explosives made of clay have appeared in the hands of opposition forces in many countries. Are these all flowing out from you?"
Deidara emphasized: "Art, that's art."
Xie said: "Then, come with us, our leader of Xiao, I admire your artwork very much."
Deidara said angrily: "Why should I go?"
"It seems that this is the reason why I came here." Uchiha Itachi glanced at Deidara with three magatama reflected in his eyes.
"Such beautiful eyes." Deidara was instantly lost.
Itachi Uchiha stepped forward and placed the kunai on Deidara's neck, then released the genjutsu.
"Ah, my work of art!" Deidara shouted as if he was missing something, and then he reacted and said angrily, "Asshole, you used an illusion on me!"
"Sorry." Uchiha Itachi said nonchalantly, and at the same time moved the kunai in his hand to signal Deidara to understand the current situation.
"Okay, okay, I'll join." Deidara surrendered.
Uchiha Itachi collected his kunai and retreated, while Deidara launched a sneak attack, and a pile of clay bombs blew Uchiha Itachi to pieces.
"Hahaha, I asked you to cast illusions on me." Deidara said with a proud smile.
"Sorry, that was just an illusion." Itachi Uchiha dragged Deidara back to reality.
Deidara's expression changed. Except for the temple which was bombed into a mess, no one else seemed to have moved at all. Uchiha Itachi's kunai was still on his neck.
"Are you coming again?" Uchiha Itachi asked.
"I won't come. I can't deal with your illusion now." Deidara gritted his teeth and said, "Help me remove the illusion."
Uchiha Itachi stepped back, "Now that we have become companions, I will naturally not use illusions on you anymore."
Deidara did not make a sneak attack, but used a kunai to draw a horizontal line on his Iwagakure's forehead, just like Uchiha Itachi.
"Let me tell you first, I will not give up my pursuit of art." Deidara emphasized.
"Blue Dragon." Xie Xie shook his hand and threw the ring with the word "青" representing the blue dragon to Deidara.
"Only the ring, at least give me a set of clothes similar to this guy's."
Deidara caught the ring, pointed at Itachi Uchiha, and shouted angrily, like a child distributing sugar unevenly.
"Yes." Scorpion used space ninjutsu to take out a black windbreaker embroidered with red clouds from the scroll, and handed it to Deidara with Scorpion's tail.
"That's pretty much it." Deidara put on his windbreaker and said narcissistically, "I feel like I'm more artistic." Then he shouted to Uchiha Itachi, "Hey, I will definitely let you know my art in the future.
.”
Itachi Uchiha ignored Deidara at all, making Deidara jump in anger.
At this time, Xie received the message and used space ninjutsu to take out two mission scrolls from the message scroll, one for Junan and one for Qingbai.
"Confirm Orochimaru's defection, let Deidara and I go to the Kingdom of Wind to deal with Orochimaru."
"Kissame and I are looking for the next member."......
The country of wind.
"Old man, we have arrived in the Kingdom of Wind. There are deserts everywhere here. Where on earth are we going to find that smelly snake?"
"The secret I buried a long time ago is now with Orochimaru."
Xie took out a scroll from under a stone statue on the side of the road, with the words "The Great Sand Dune of the East" written on it.
"That's where it turned out to be."
"Let's go now, old man, do you know the way?"...
The Great Sand Dune of the East.
The target was a grotto in the center of the dune, but Xie and Deidara found a snake as soon as they approached one kilometer.
Deidara then threw a clay bomb, blowing the snake into pieces.
Then, a group of snakes crawled out of the sand.
"Whoosh..."
The scorpion opened its mouth and spat out a bunch of needles, nailing all the snakes to the ground.
"Old man, where did so many snakes come from?"
"Don't you understand? Orochimaru already knows that we are coming."
"Very good, now you don't have to run around here and there."
"Go to heaven to prevent him from escaping."
"Listen to me, old man, do you have any grudge against him?"
“This has nothing to do with you.”…
At the entrance of the cave, Orochimaru stood with his arms folded, looking at Deidara who was flying in the sky on a giant clay bird.
"Scorpion, this kid has been in the demolition team in Iwagakure, right?"
"Orochimaru, you don't seem scared at all?"
"If it's the leader, maybe."
"This is my home court." Xie released a puppet from the space scroll with blue hair and yellow eyes.
"Oh my, the Sandaime Kazekage was indeed killed by you."
"You know the strength of the Sandaime Kazekage very well."
"Yes, it just so happens that I also have a hobby of collecting collectibles." Orochimaru formed the seal, "Ninja Technique: The Reincarnation of the Earth."
A coffin rose from the ground, opened it, and a man who looked exactly like the Sandaime Kazekage's puppet came out, but his face was covered in dust.
Xie was shocked, "This, this is..."
The Sandaime Kazekage said angrily: "Scorpion, you bastard, how dare you make me a puppet."
"The Sandaime Kazekage! Damn it, how is this possible!" Xia shouted in disbelief.
Orochimaru smiled happily and said: "This is the Sandaime Kazekage you killed, and I resurrected him using forbidden techniques."
Xie said sternly: "Okay, then I will kill him again."
The Sandaime Kazekage said bitterly: "This time it won't be like last time."
"Let's stop here to complain." Orochimaru put a control spell into the mind of the Sandaime Kazekage.
The dusty color of the Sandaime Kazekage disappeared, becoming clean and more like a living person.
Orochimaru smiled expectantly: "Which one is stronger, your puppet or my forbidden technique?"
"Satetsu Shigure!"
The Sandaime formed the Kazekage Seal and shot a piece of iron sand towards the scorpion.
"Shield of Rakshasa!"
Scorpion controlled the Sandaime Kazekage puppet in front of him, and a shield made of sand and iron was spit out from the mouth of the Sandaime Kazekage puppet, blocking the flying sand and iron and rebounding it.
The rebounding sand and iron hit the giant clay bird in the sky, breaking the left wing of the giant clay bird. Deidara was caught off guard and fell down with the giant bird.
Suddenly the sand and iron rain stopped. Scorpion felt something was wrong and immediately controlled the Sandaime Kazekage puppet to retreat.
Sure enough, a rain of sand and iron came out of the ground and hit the place where Scorpion was just standing.
"If the sand iron hits the puppet, the puppet will no longer be able to be used."
"It's not your turn to talk about my puppet."
After the sand and iron rain passed, Scorpion controlled the Sandaime Kazekage's puppet to attack with his left hand wheel. The Sandaime Kazekage jumped up to avoid it.
The Sandaime Kazekage puppet raised his hand and used dozens of telescopic arms to smash the Sandaime Kazekage into pieces.
"It's your turn next, Orochimaru!"
"It's not over yet."
The fragments of the Sandaime Kazekage were gradually put together and restored to their original state.
"This is also a kind of eternal life. Once you die, you will never die again."
"How is it possible not to die! Sand and iron knot attack!"
Angry, Scorpion controlled the Third-generation Kazekage puppet to launch some sand-iron spears composed of sand-iron.
The Sandaime Kazekage did not dodge, letting the sand iron spear penetrate into his body, and then controlled the sand iron spear and shot it towards the scorpion.
"Shield of Rakshasa!"
Scorpion controlled the Sandaime Kazekage puppet in front of him, erected a sand-iron shield, and blocked the sand-iron spear.
"Give you a taste of my art."
Deidara controlled the repaired giant bird to rotate, causing a bunch of clay bombs to fall from the sky, hit the Sandaime Kazekage, and detonate them.
However, after the dust and smoke passed, the smashed Sandaime Kazekage recovered again.
Deidara was surprised, "Hey, this thing is really unkillable."
"When you die, I will resurrect you like this."
Orochimaru proudly commanded the Sandaime Kazekage to condense a huge awl out of sand and iron, while Scorpion could only passively control the Sandaime Kazekage's puppet to condense a huge pillar out of sand and iron.
Orochimaru smiled proudly and said: "You guys, become my chess pieces forever." He waved his hand and directed the Sandaime Kazekage to attack.
A sudden change occurred, and the sand iron cones began to scatter, and the Sandaime Kazekage spoke, word for word, "How is it possible? I am, the Sandaime Kazekage..."
Orochimaru said in a strange tone: "The chess pieces are the chess pieces."
The Sandaime Kazekage turned to look at Orochimaru, "I am, no, am..."
At this time, Orochimaru discovered that Scorpion controlled the sand iron pillar condensed by the third generation Kazekage puppet to attack, but the blocking sand iron cone had completely dissipated.
"It seems there are still flaws, we can only talk about it later."
Orochimaru let the Sandaime Kazekage stand in front of him, turned around and slipped into the cave.
The Sandaime Kazekage was smashed into pieces by the sand iron pillar, and did not recover this time.
"Don't run."
Deidara jumped off the giant bird and released a large swarm of clay birds in the air, chasing them into the cave and detonating them after landing.
"boom……"
In the explosion that soared into the sky, the entire cave covering an area of nearly one hectare was leveled.
