Boom! QQ group chat! 119!
A massive explosion occurred at C3-18.
The raging flames engulfed everything around them.
A powerful shockwave swept across the area in an instant.
Even though Yugito, in her tailed beast form, was incredibly fast, she was still blasted away.
Deidara, panting heavily, watched the explosion from mid-air, a satisfied smile on his face.
"Art is an explosion! Yeah!"
Yukito stood up. She was incredibly fast and was only thrown back by the shockwave, so she wasn't seriously injured.
However, the entire stronghold had been completely razed to the ground by Deidara's bombs.
Those from Kumogakure who were slow to run and were close to the explosion's epicenter, "950,"
Almost none survived.
Those who weren't directly killed by the explosion also fell to the ground groaning, a scene of utter despair.
Yugito's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, but Kumogakure currently had no aerial combat capability whatsoever.
Only she can use the Fire Rat Jewel to pose a threat to Deidara in the air.
Fortunately, Deidara had just used C3-18 and his chakra was greatly depleted, so the giant bird's flight speed was noticeably slower.
The wooden figures on the ground continuously spewed out fireballs, which exploded in the air and transformed into fire rat jewels that chased after Deidara.
Deidara then threw out a small bomb, preemptively detonating the Fire Rat Orb.
At the same time, he also threw small birds at the ground, bombarding the remaining Cloud Village villagers.
As a Jonin of Kumogakure, Hii finally realized that Deidara was always using Earth Release seals.
She shouted to her still-fighting comrades, "He's using Earth Release seals! Use Lightning Release to disrupt his explosion!"
Deidara threw the little bird again, which landed right next to Hii as it approached the ground.
Lightning Release: Lightning Spear!
A thin beam of light pierced the little bird.
The little bird didn't explode; instead, it crashed to the ground and shattered.
Deidara spat in mid-air and hurriedly pulled the giant bird away.
His chakra was exhausted, and the giant bird slowed down considerably, making it difficult for some of the Fire Rat Balls to dodge.
Boom!
Ultimately, the giant bird was struck by the Fire Rat Jade, causing its speed to drop drastically.
The giant bird began to shed pieces of clay in mid-air, teetering on the brink of collapse.
Deidara stuffed some of the remaining clay into his mouth and chewed the rest in his hand.
Deidara spat out clay from his mouth and quickly rubbed it, turning the clay into white spiders that fell from the sky.
However, these spiders did not land; instead, they exploded in mid-air.
Under the cover of smoke and dust, Deidara spat out a lump of clay, which gradually grew larger and transformed into his own likeness.
He himself turned into a lump of clay, merging into the giant bird, and disintegrated and fell with it.
The real Deidara, however, strives to fly far away on the giant bird.
The gradual disintegration of the giant bird left him feeling powerless.
On Yugito's side, seeing Deidara's giant bird slow down, she transformed into a cat demon and opened her mouth wide.
A tailed beast ball had already gathered in its mouth.
The air seemed to freeze, and a thick, ink-black Tailed Beast Ball formed.
call out! !
Yugito harbored deep hatred for Deidara.
The Tailed Beast Ball shot out straight out.
Boom!
A giant fireball exploded in the sky.
A mushroom cloud rose, and a powerful shockwave spread in all directions along with smoke and dust.
call...
Yukito breathed a sigh of relief, feeling somewhat comforted.
She was quite certain that Deidara had vanished into thin air.
.....
Cloud Hidden Stronghold.
The battle is finally over.
Although Deidara was defeated, Yugito felt no joy whatsoever.
Deidara was alone, but the losses suffered by Kumogakure were far more severe.
Forty-seven people died.
More than 20 people could not even find their bodies.

Thirty people were injured.
Of these 30 people, 30% have physical disabilities.
The entire stronghold was completely destroyed by bombs.
Samui and the other two returned slowly.
The battle was over when they arrived, but they had never witnessed such a horrific scene before.
The stronghold was completely destroyed, and more than half of the personnel were killed or wounded.
This was the day with the heaviest casualties since the Hidden Cloud Village launched its attack.
Some bodies could not even be recovered.
If it weren't for Hiki's sensory abilities, which allowed her to detect Deidara's Earth Release seal in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Da da da...
Several footsteps sounded, and Shisui, Itachi, and Yogetsu returned.
Itachi frowned slightly: "Were you attacked?"
Yukito flew into a rage: "What are you doing here? Just here to watch the show?"
Itachi coldly replied, "You should understand that you're the one who told us to stay put."
"I dealt with the enemy before you showed up. I really don't understand why the Raikage would cooperate with you," Yukito said angrily.
Itachi remained expressionless and composed: "You've only eliminated one member; there are many more to come."
"What's the meaning!?"
The atmosphere between the two became extremely tense, and Shisui quickly tried to mediate.
“We have gathered enough information. Yaoyue will hold the line from now on, while we will pursue them.”
Yukito's anger subsided slightly after hearing this: "Who is that person on the other side?"
Shisui replied, "The organization on the other side is called 'Akatsuki'."
They specialize in taking on all kinds of bounty and war missions; their members are mysterious and complex, and their strength is unfathomable.
...
"puff!"
A blond-haired youth emerged from the soil.
This place is quite a distance from the Cloud Hidden Stronghold, so it's very safe.
Deidara looked around, then jumped out.
"That was close! Was that a Tailed Beast Ball? It's really dazzling, hmm."
"No, explosions are the most beautiful art, hmm!"
I didn't expect the Two-Tails Jinchuriki to return ahead of schedule.
Waterfalls are really unreliable. Hmm.
Deidara checked the clay on his body; it was almost completely used up.
Let's take a break and adjust first.
After confirming the direction, Deidara headed towards the place he had agreed upon with Sasori.
Soon after, Deidara saw a scorpion at the foot of a mountain wall.
"Brother Scorpion, how's the situation on your end? Hmm!"
