The artistic duo felt the leader's gaze, and the corners of their mouths twitched violently.
Didara twitched his lips and asked, "Chief, do you want me and Brother Scorpion to go and hold the line?"
"Hmm." Pain nodded, explaining earnestly:
"The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is heading this way now."
"Right now, apart from you and Scorpion's true form being in the cave, the rest of us are here using the Illusionary Body Technique."
"So...you are the best candidates."
"Your mission with Scorpion this time is very simple."
"All we need to do is hold off the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."
"Keep pushing until we seal the One-Tailed Beast into the Gedo Mazo."
"Then you can figure out a way to leave!!"
Upon hearing this, Deidara and Sasori's faces twitched violently.
This is absolutely no easy task!
If it weren't for the existence of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, the mission might have been very simple!
But with Naruto's presence, the nature of the mission completely changed.
The mission level was increased countless times.
Calling it hellish difficulty wouldn't be an exaggeration!!!
Deidara, with a long face, grinned and said, "Boss, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki's strength is too terrifying. I think Sasori and I will have a hard time dealing with him."
"Chief, should we send more men to provide support? Hmm."
As soon as he finished speaking, Scorpion quickly chimed in.
"Well, that makes sense."
Ever since being brutally beaten by Naruto, Sasori has inexplicably developed a sense of fear.
even--
Sometimes, when he's sleeping at night, he has nightmares about being brutally beaten!
That was worse than death!!!
Pain pondered for a moment after hearing this before speaking, "Sealing the tailed beasts is of paramount importance now. If one person were to seal them, the speed of sealing the tailed beasts would be greatly reduced."
"Hmm...how about this?"
At this point, Pain looked at Black Zetsu.
"Jue, have Bai Jue create more clones to assist Xie and Xiao Di."
"Yes, no problem." Black Zetsu nodded and replied.
Pain looked at Deidara and Sasori and said again, "Hold on for now. Once we seal the One-Tailed Beast into the Gedo Mazo, we will immediately send reinforcements to you."
Deidara could only nod when he heard his leader say that.
"Alright then, you need to seal the tailed beast quickly."
"Scorpion and I really can't hold out for long."
"Hmm." Pain nodded, giving the art duo a reassuring look.
"Dee, let's go." At this moment, Sasori stopped using the Book of Sealing to seal the tailed beasts and turned to his teammate beside him, saying.
“Okay.” Deidara nodded repeatedly.
Immediately, the artistic duo left the cave, watched by the other members of Akatsuki.
After watching Deidara and Sasori leave, Pain turned to the other Akatsuki members and solemnly reminded them, "Everyone, concentrate! Quickly seal the Tailed Beasts into the demonic statue!!!"
Everyone understood the seriousness of the situation and nodded in agreement.
Chapter 147 Deidara's Frustration: This is so disrespectful! I can't stand it!
At the border of the Land of Wind.
The desolate and barren desert meets the vibrant green vegetation.
Upon closer inspection, it gives one the feeling of navigating between life and death.
"Naruto, how much further?"
Temari tilted her head and looked at the blond boy beside her, asking a question.
"Coming."
Naruto nodded in response.
Not long after the group continued on their way, Naruto suddenly sensed two familiar chakra streams approaching them from ahead.
"Someone is coming."
After he finished speaking, Kakashi, Temari, and Chiyo all froze.
Immediately afterwards, they quickly released their chakra to sense the surroundings.
Just as Naruto said, two people were approaching from the front.
They've been completely desensitized by Naruto's heightened senses.
At this moment, Naruto gave them only one impression.
No matter how well the Akatsuki members hid, they could not escape Naruto's control!
soon!!
Naruto and his group walked through the jungle and arrived at a flat area.
Just then, they saw members of the Akatsuki organization crossing the jungle.
The two sides happened to meet on a flat piece of land.
"Yes, those two guys attacked Sunagakure in the middle of the night and kidnapped Gaara!!!"
When Temari saw the Akatsuki's artistic duo, her face stiffened, and she quickly said something.
As she spoke, she clenched her teeth, appearing extremely angry.
Immediately, Temari glared at Deidara and Sasori, shouting, "Hand over Gaara now, or don't blame us for being impolite!!"
at the same time.
The artistic duo focused all their attention on Naruto.
They were extremely nervous!
"Brother Sasori, what do we do?" Deidara glanced at his teammate and asked.
Upon hearing this, Sasori pondered for a moment, then said with a solemn expression, "There's nothing we can do. The leaders haven't sealed the One-Tailed Beast into the Gedo Mazo yet, so we can only hold out for now."
“...Alright then.” Deidara’s lips twitched slightly.
A year ago, he was brutally beaten by Naruto.
Now, a year later, although he doesn't know how powerful Naruto has become, Deidara can imagine the fate of himself and Sasori.
They will definitely still get a beating.
Thinking of this, Deidara's body trembled slightly, his heart filled with grief and indignation.
Scorpion and I came here purely to be tortured.
Although he was terrified of Naruto, Deidara wasn't truly a coward!
Hearing Temari's question, he smirked and said, "Hand over the One-Tailed Jinchuriki? Dream on! Hmm."
Without waiting for Temari's reply, he immediately shoved his hands into his pockets, frantically tearing at the clay inside.
Not a moment.
A clay bomb made entirely of white material was created.
"C2 - Dragon!!!"
Deidara tossed the C2 dragon into the air.
The next moment, the C2 dragon's body rapidly expanded.
In just a few seconds, the C2 dragon's body swelled to a length of more than ten people.
The scorpion standing nearby looked astonished upon seeing this.
"Xiao Di, why don't you unleash your ultimate move right away?"
"Brother Sasori, I'm helpless too. Who can blame me when the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is just too strong?" Deidara said speechlessly.
Upon hearing this, Scorpion nodded, finding no problem with his teammate's words.
If we don't unleash our ultimate move now, it'll be too late to make a move later.
No more words.
Scorpion took out the scroll and began to form hand seals.
"Boom boom boom boom boom boom!!!!!"
White mist rose in billows.
At this moment, dozens of puppets appeared in front of him.
These puppets were the limit of what he could produce.
There was nothing the scorpion could do.
During his last battle with Naruto, all the puppets he created, including the Third Kazekage puppet, and the hundreds of puppets he released during the Hundred Puppet Technique were destroyed in that battle.
The puppets he summons now are all things he has been working hard to create over the past year.
There are really not many puppets left in stock.
I'm so poor!!!
not far away.
