"Hahaha! Serves Itachi Uchiha right!"
Deidara reached up to brush the stray hairs from his forehead and threw his head back, laughing wildly. His exaggerated laughter showed indescribable joy.
"What? The Uchiha clan is nothing special after all. They've turned into the dust of the wind and drifted away!"
"Well~ Really? But it's quite an interesting ability."
Suddenly, a voice boomed in his ear. Deidara looked behind him in disbelief. Itachi's figure hovered in the air, appearing both real and illusory. Deidara let out a terrified yell and fell heavily onto the clay dragon's back.
"This is impossible! You were clearly dead! No one could possibly escape my C4 bomb - Garuda!"
"You're talking about those small bombs of yours. Although they can't be seen with the naked eye, I can still distinguish the color of chakra. After the human - shaped bombs failed, I noticed a continuous flow of blue chakra leaking out. The blown - up birds and mice absorbed a large number of micro - bombs through breathing. When you shouted, numerous bombs exploded inside them, which is why they seemed to dissipate like dust."
Deidara looked at Itachi with a calm face. Clearly, Itachi didn't take his C4 bomb seriously. He had even come up with a counter - strategy long ago and used Genjutsu to create the phenomenon of his faked death.
Terrible! This man is unfathomable. To what extent did he anticipate this battle with me?
"Don't worry. Your ability is interesting. I have no intention of killing you for now."
"Hey! Stop daydreaming. As if you could do it!"
Deidara was instantly enraged by Itachi and scolded loudly in dissatisfaction. The calmer Itachi's face became, the harder it was for him to control his anger.
Doesn't he look down on me? Doesn't he think he has absolute control over everything here?
Damn it! I ain't gonna lose so easily!
Deidara ripped off his coat, revealing his strong chest. Black threads were sewn around his heart.
He placed his hand with a mouth on his chest and bit through the threads one by one. There was another mouth in his heart area!
"Itachi Uchiha, you're finished, and so is Konoha. The next bomb I'm going to use is an absolute art with a radius of 10 kilometers. Now, repent for the rest of your life!"
After saying that, he took out a large plate of clay from his pocket and was about to stuff it into the mouth on his chest when his whole body stiffened and he stood there, motionless.
Deidara looked at Itachi in the distance in confusion, with his eyes rolling. Itachi was walking towards him slowly, with the same calm expression as always.
"Oh~ A blast radius of 10 kilometers? If you really use it, as you said, all the civilians in Konoha and the ninjas in battle will be finished!"
"Why can't I even move a finger now!"
Deidara, furious, struggled to move his body, but he couldn't move an inch. Even if it was the Body - Binding Jutsu, the effect was too strong.
"What? Haven't you noticed yet? You've long been in the illusion I created. This is my world, and everything obeys my command."
"How come?"
Deidara's eyes were full of surprise and consternation. The surrounding scenery instantly changed. The houses and space were distorted, and the light suddenly dimmed. With great difficulty, he shook his head. When he looked up again, he found himself nailed to a cross and couldn't move at all.
"Mangekyō Sharingan: Tsukuyomi"
"So what if you trap me in the Genjutsu world? My art will never yield!"
Itachi didn't say a word, but instead brought a deep sense of oppression to Deidara. To be honest, Itachi was also curious about how long Deidara could stay stubborn - mouthed in his Mangekyō Sharingan: Tsukuyomi world.
Suddenly, Itachi held an ordinary Kunai in his hand. Finally, there was a slight smile on his long - calm face.
"Since you're so stubborn - mouthed, it seems I'll have plenty of fun!"
"Hey! Wait, what are you going to do? Let me go quickly!"
Deidara was pitifully tied to the cross. Only the part above his neck could move slightly as he shook his head in refusal. He clearly felt something was wrong with Itachi in this state.
Under Deidara's gaze, Itachi repeatedly stabbed an ordinary Kunai into his body. A couple of times was bearable. As a member of the Akatsuki, who wasn't battle - tested and scarred? But what about 100 times, 1000 times? Deidara's spiritual world gradually collapsed until he completely lost his will.
In the real world, Itachi looked at Deidara who had fainted. He reached out and touched his eyes. Strangely, after using the Mangekyō Sharingan, he didn't feel the slightest pain.
This was thanks to Sasuke's research in the past two years. He found that using the Sharingan in conjunction with Sage Art would greatly reduce the side effects of the Sharingan and even improve the pupil power to a certain extent.
He had always lacked a test subject. Unexpectedly, he met Deidara, a good experimental target. Sasuke's method really worked.

"Damn it!"
An angry roar came from the other side of the arena. Sasori controlled his Puppet and dodged the menacing bone shards from behind in a sorry state.
He glanced back at the two Ninjas chasing him. What a joke! How could he be so unlucky to encounter two Ninjas capable of using Sage Mode? Has the cultivation of Sage Transformation become so widespread these days?
While Sasori was distracted, dozens of bone shards shot towards him at once. Sasori, not willing to be outdone, controlled his Puppet and shot out a row of fine needles.
When they clashed, there was a huge disparity in power. The bone shards' penetrating power actually sent the fine needles flying. Like bullets, they shot over quickly and hit the wooden body of the Puppet heavily one after another. Soon, the body was damaged.
Jūgo, who had been waiting for the right moment, took advantage of the moment when Sasori was distracted controlling the Puppet. He opened all the jet ports on his body, accelerated to full speed, and in an instant, appeared in front of Sasori. He repeatedly punched the Puppeteer Sasori in the chin.
His whole body was sent flying high into the air. After spinning in the air countless times, he barely managed to land...
Sasori, who finally managed to get back on his feet, cursed bitterly in his heart. Damn it! Just that one moment. If he didn't have a mechanical body, he'd be done for long ago!
"Hey! Weren't you being so cocky? Why are you running away? Let me teach you a lesson and wipe you out!"
Since Sasuke and Kimimaro brought back the correct cultivation method for Sage Transformation, Jūgo isn't as likely to lose control as he used to be.
