"What's the status? Is Commander alright?" Konomi asked a Hyuga Jounin. The Hyuga Jounin frowned and answered, "A third person appeared out of thin air. However, my view got blocked. It looks like they have applied so seals in the area."
Konomi frowned and wondered, 'Should we interfere? However, the opponent is too strong. I'm afraid we'll just get in Commander's way…'
——
"Sasori, Deidara, let's set aside our differences for now. We'll kill this scamr first and settle our battle later." The sudden proposal left Obito dumbfounded. He couldn't help but wonder, 'Does he plan to make my underlings attack ? Exactly what did I step into?'
Needless to say, Obito wasn't afraid. While he found Fujin intriguing, he didn't see either of the 3 rank S ninjas as a challenge. It was just that the situation was completely out of control. He could see that both Sasori and Deidara were thoughtfully considering his offer.
Of course, there wasn't enough trust between them for them to actually accept Fujin's proposal. While Deidara thought about it seriously, Sasori didn't even entertain it. He thought, 'There is no doubt that he will stab us in the back if we team up. Once we enter that wind do, it's ga over for us.
As expected of a scher from Konoha. His clone must have fed similar bullshit to Deidara! That kid doesn't know how devious Konoha ninjas are. They may have a reputation for being soft, but only brainwashed fools believe that! Even now, he's actively moving the winds to himself.'
Fujin looked at Deidara's and Sasori's reactions and sighed internally, 'A sha. Though useless, seeing them fight Obito would have been a sight to watch. Oh well, it would have been pointless anyway. To think that as many as 4 Akatsuki mbers, including 2 founding mbers, would show up in the middle of nowhere… What an interesting day!'
The battlefield was disturbed yet again as a plant-like being appeared out of the ground. Deidara and Sasori finally saw a familiar face. Black Zetsu asked, "What's the matter? Why are these two confronting you?"
Obito didn't know how to explain the situation. Thankfully, Deidara asked, "Do you know him, Zetsu?"
White Zetsu answered, "He is a mber of Akatsuki too. This mission is a failure. Orochimaru was spotted running towards the Land of Frost. Unfortunately, I couldn't keep track of him."
Deidara and Sasori were surprised. They thought, 'So, he wasn't lying. Instead, Fujin was the one sowing discord. However, did he know that or was he genuine?'
Even Obito had the sa question. However, he knew that he wouldn't get an answer. He glanced at Fujin, who quickly closed his eyes and muttered, "The Sharingan, huh? So, there was another Uchiha among the ranks of Akatsuki. Interesting…"
To the surprise of the four Akatsuki mbers, seals appeared on Fujin's eyelids as he continued, "That absurd Space Ti Ninjutsu surpasses both the Second and the Fourth. For soone to surpass them, I suppose your eyes aren't just ordinary Sharingans. No, they must be the fabled Mangekyou Sharingan. Sigh, that is scary…
Not to ntion, that plant-like being's underground speed and stealth is remarkable too. I almost didn't sense him. Hehehe…"
Deidara's eyes twitched as he wondered, 'What the hell is he talking about? Doesn't he see that he is at a heavy disadvantage? Why is he talking nonsense instead of retreating?'
Obito also observed Fujin curiously, 'Impressive. He sealed his eyes right when he observed my Sharingan eye. I didn't even have ti to cast a Genjutsu. He also did well to analyze my abilities. So, this is Konoha's latest genius? Should I let him grow? Or… Should I take this opportunity to eliminate him?'
Fujin's Wind Domain had successfully attracted Obito's attention. It countered his ability perfectly as well. Since Fujin could spontaneously create wind blades inside the domain, Obito couldn't risk deactivating his intangibility when he was inside it. In a way, he shared the sa weakness as Sasori. So, Obito was of the thought of eliminating Fujin before he beca as big of a threat as Minato.
Before Obito could make a decision, Fujin laughed and said, "The Akatsuki organization… I wonder what your goal is in gathering such powerful ninjas. Regardless, I can't let the four of you leave just yet. Konoha needs so answers. So, I'm afraid you'll have to stay as my guests."
As Fujin spoke, the Akatsuki mbers beca serious. Everyone could feel Fujin building up a massive amount of chakra. None of them missed the movents of the winds either. They could see that Fujin was talking rely to buy so ti.
A smirk appeared on Deidara's face while Sasori sighed, 'Youngsters… They're all suicidal.'
Fujin's chakra suddenly spiked! His body expelled chakra rapidly, strengthening and expanding the Wind Domain at a horrendous rate! At the sa ti, two Wind Dragons appeared from what remained of the previous Wind Domain and dived towards Sasori and Deidara. In addition, dozens of wind blades, air bullets and vacuum bullets were launched as well at the sa ti!
Sasori's fingers moved and the Third Kazekage's puppet controlled iron sand once again. He was about to use it to attack the Wind Dragon when the Wind Dragon was suddenly set ablaze and transford into a Scorch Dragon in the blink of an eye. Sasori was once again forced to retreat.
Deidara tossed a small clay bird at the mouth of the Wind Dragon. The explosion shattered the Wind Dragon, but Deidara was forced to retreat as well as dozens of Wind Blades and Air Bullets were launched at him from the Wind Dragon before it dispersed completely.
Obito made himself intangible once again while Zetsu hid underground as their position was bombarded by the remaining Wind jutsus. Zetsu ca out once the bombardnt was over and enquired, "His technique is troubleso for your ability. What do you plan on doing?"
Obito replied, "It is a strong technique. However, he's overreaching himse…"
Obito's eye suddenly widened and he glanced behind him. At the sa ti, Zetsu escaped underground again as their position was bombarded once again, this ti from behind them. Needless to say, it was the sa Wind Clone that had bullshitted Deidara.
Obito looked at the Wind Clone and thought, 'A Wind Clone… Huh?'
Obito expected the clone to double-team with Fujin. However, the clone smirked and exploded. However, instead of shockwaves, winds were unleashed in every direction. With his Sharingan, Obito easily noticed Fujin's chakra in those winds. The winds, instead of extending towards Obito and the rest, started expanding sideways and towards the sky.
Obito's eyes widened as he realized, 'Could it be?'
He imdiately turned his gaze towards Fujin, who was continuously pumping out chakra. Just like the Wind Clone's domain, Fujin's Wind Domain was also expanding outwards and towards the skies. Obito imdiately realized that Fujin was building a massive Wind Domain, one that would trap the three of them. While he wasn't afraid of it, he wouldn't be able to save Sasori and Deidara once they were trapped inside!
Even Sasori and Deidara noticed it as they dodged Fujin's assault. Obito said aloud, "We don't have much ti, co with ."
He quickly moved forward, but his path was bombarded with Vacuum Bullets and Vacuum Blades. Fujin chuckled and taunted, "You couldn't use your ability when you ca here. I wonder whether you can use it while you leave."
A wide grin appeared on his face as he laughed, "If you can't, then this battle will be decided by whether I run out of chakra first or you are unable to maintain that form. Hahahaha! This is even more exciting than fighting Orochimaru!"
Obito and the rest had dark expressions when they heard Fujin's laughter. All had the sa thought running through their minds, 'Unseal your eyes if you want excitent!'
Unfortunately, Fujin's relentless assault left them with no ti to retort. They knew it would only take a few seconds for Fujin's wind domain to encircle the entire battlefield. It wouldn't take too long after that for the Winds controlled by Fujin to flood the entire area.
When that happened, the only escape route Sasori and Deidara would have was underground. However, Sasori wasn't too confident in that escape route after what happened earlier.
Sasori counterattacked with iron dust while he and Deidara desperately dodged all attacks. Unlike Obito, they couldn't turn intangible. They could only be thankful that they weren't under the intense assault that Obito was. Especially Deidara, who seed to have it much easier.
Obito couldn't help but wonder, 'Why is he taking it easy on Deidara? Is there really sothing going on or is he just sowing seeds of discord?'
When Obito reached Sasori, the Third Kazekage's puppet unleashed all the Iron Dust it had to create several protective layers to stop Fujin's relentless assault temporarily. Obito placed his right hand on the Hiruko puppet, extended his left hand to Deidara and said, "Quickly hold !"
At that mont, Deidara's hands were in his bag, eating clay. Before he could move his hands, Fujin's laughter roared once again as he shouted, "Now, Deidara!"
