"Fuck!" Naruto generated his one-tail cloak of chakra and cut out in a hasty retreat away from the almost microscopic iron projectiles. He was shocked to see that they had such a wide range of spread 'How the hell is that even happening?' He cut back to avoid getting overtaken by the small iron pellets and rushed Sasori and his Kazekage puppet as he generated a Rasengan in his right hand and drew it back to attack.
Looking closely at Sasori and the Sandai Kazekage puppet, Naruto saw that his clones were able to get close enough to force a short conflict, as the cloak of the Kazekage was sowhat shredded revealing a shut chest compartnt. As he bared closer to the puppet user and his prized tool his senses of danger went off due to the fact that Sasori wasn't moving, he wasn't even making an effort to get the Kazekage in his way to run interference. Naruto aborted his attack just in ti to see the mass amounts of iron particles stop in front of Sasori and his puppet.
The chest compartnt was wide open as a strange glow emitted from it. It had to be so kind of strange control thing for the sand, as it wasn't visible until it ca close enough to almost hit Sasori. That needed to go if he was ever going to get any misdirection on Sasori. He had to put yet another thought aside for later as Sasori pressed his advantage.
"Senju Soubu (Thousand Hands Manipulation Military Art)!" A series of compartnts opened up in the left hand of the Kazekage puppet with a series of summoning seals in them. From the seals ca an obscene amount of puppet arms that expanded out at Naruto.
They crashed directly in front of him as he dodged the move. Naruto prepared his body to cut right through them before he got another nasty surprise from Sasori. After detaching from the Kazekage, the arms shot poison gas that Naruto was caught off guard by. He quickly erged from the cloud and went through with his plan to utterly eradicate the puppet arms with extre prejudice, using his modified taijutsu to dice them up almost effortlessly, turning them into useless chunks of wood. His vision started to swim as he set himself back into a stance to battle with Sasori. He stopped and glared at Sasori who took the ti to speak to him, "Do you feel it yet? The paralyzing effects of my poison?"
Naruto frowned, 'So that's what that was? Kyuubi, systems purge please.' Naruto cringed at the feeling of Kyuubi running his chakra through his organs and nerves to clean his system before smirking at Sasori, "Yep. Felt it. It's not really that bad. It's like a mixture of tons of stuff I've already had before. You deal with it once, you can deal with it all at once. Your poison is useless."
For not showing it, this significantly caught Sasori off guard. He had sowhat been banking on his poison to subdue Naruto. It was ant to paralyze Naruto and slowly kill him over the length of three days. How else was he going to capture and transport Naruto all the way to a point where he could have his biju extracted without paralyzing him? He would wake up and break away. But now that his poison proved to be ineffective he had to co up with a new way to keep Naruto down without killing him. Naruto on the other hand, didn't have such restrictions, and imdiately proved that to Sasori with his next move.
Naruto pulled out a handful of shuriken and layered them with wind chakra before throwing it at Sasori. The puppeteer called forth another iron wall to block for him but Naruto ran through a series of hand-seals, "Shuriken Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu)!" The sheer raw amount of shuriken made by the replication technique stuck into as well as went over the iron wall where Naruto then made his next move, flying through more hand-seals, "Raiton: Kaminari Shuriken (Lightning Release: Lightning Shuriken)!"
The shuriken above Sasori's head began to rain down a torrent of electricity that forced him to flee alongside his puppet. A few jolts actually hit the Kazekage puppet and gave Sasori a significant shock himself as the electricity coursed through his body. The sll of the burnt hair and flesh from the Kazekage wafted through the air. Sasori's eyes narrowed as he saw that the attack had disrupted his puppet's magnetic apparatus. It was slowly losing its power and would soon be useless and deactivated.
Naruto grinned at Sasori, "You aren't going to beat with a lucky scratch Sasori. You need to actually finish to claim victory, I wonder if you actually have anything capable of doing that. How did you even take this village down anyway?"
"This village beca too dependent on its fuuinjutsu." Sasori started, "Everything that made this village unique and powerful was based on its sealing techniques. From the genjutsu seal they had at the periter of the forest surrounding it that would force people to wander about, to the defenses set up around major choke points in the village. After being able to negate that advantage and engage them personally I found that they weren't as skilled as many believe they were."
Naruto didn't accept that answer, there were still too many things to consider on that front, "You're just one man, no matter how you cut it. To take on the bulk of an entire military force seems beyond you in a straight fight. I suppose I'll get the answer from you before I finish you off for good."
Sasori simply smirked, "Finish off for good? Just try it." The red-haired puppeteer had the Kazekage make use of its still active magnetic part and launch two masses of iron sand at Naruto. As he made to dodge, Sasori simply spoke the na of his attack calmly and coolly, "Satetsu Kaihou (Iron Sand World Order)."
XxX
(Sai vs. Deidara)
Sai eventually picked himself up off of the ground, his head swimming due to the concussive force of the blast and the impact of his hitting the ground. He idly wondered why Deidara hadn't arrived to finish him off. Not to look a gift horse in the mouth in the this case, he pulled out his tipless tanto and began slowly stalking the ruins for a sign of Deidara. He fell off of his ride as well, even if it was intentional, there was no way that he was at one-hundred percent himself after that.
He limped along the area looking for Deidara. Why was that bastard so good at covering his tracks? He and Naruto never even saw him every ti he attacked until it was too-
BOOM
-late.
Sai found himself rocked by an explosion that ca from under him when he placed a foot on the rubble that made up the bulk of Uzushiogakure. Sai's sandal and pant leg on his right leg were destroyed. Stepping on a landmine, so that's what Deidara had been doing for so long. Looking at the burns on his leg, Sai was extrely grateful that Deidara's explosives didn't have any shrapnel in them.
Walking was now a chore, and running? He didn't even want to think about how he would run for the ti being. At this point, his best bet was holding out until he could get so assistance in the form of Naruto, but seeing as how Naruto had his own opponent, he needed to figure out his own way to win or at the very least survive.
