Chapter 288 Gaara VS Deidara
In the arena.
Law, who had never had any sense of existence and was from Taki Ninja, suddenly made harsh words and wanted to kill Deidara here.
“Hahaha, what a shameless talker.”
Deidara seemed to have heard some big joke and said with a frivolous expression, "Then let's try it and see if you can do it. It's useless to have a good mouth. Unless it's my mouth."
After saying that, he raised his hands in front of Gaara and faced the latter with his palms.
I saw that the palms of his left and right hands actually had a mouth on each, and they also stuck out their tongues, making a provocative expression towards Gaara.
Facing the weak Deidara.
咻.
The sand suddenly flew out of the gourd behind Gaara and shot toward Deidara like an arrow from a string.
Hunting for a sneak attack without even completing the seal of opposition.
"etc!"
Sasuke suddenly frowned and shouted at Gaara, "Stop, this is against the rules."
"Shut up!"
"go away!"
Two voices sounded at the same time, but it was Gaara and Deidara who spoke in unison, telling the annoying Sasuke not to disturb their duel.
Whoosh.
Deidara nimbly dodged to the side and avoided Sand's attack.
Although he looks careless, he is actually bold and careful. He never underestimates his opponents and always pays attention to Gaara's movements.
After all, there will be no weaklings who can reach the semi-finals.
Sasuke saw that Deidara had dodged his opponent's attack, so he didn't say anything more. He just frowned and added: "Start!"
This duel has officially begun.
Shashashasha.
As soon as Gaara came up, he controlled the sand to launch a violent attack on Deidara, seemingly wanting to take down the opponent in one go.
After all, it was an arena battle, and the area of the arena was limited, which was very suitable for Sunako to perform. Therefore, Deidara didn't even have time to seal the seal, and was chased everywhere by Sunako as soon as he started.
During this process, sand continuously poured out from the gourd behind Gaara, and in an instant it would cover the entire arena.
Is that guy's gourd from another dimension? Can it hold so much sand?
Deidara glanced at him while dodging, feeling startled, but he quickly came to his senses, that was not the case.
The sand in the gourd is only a small part.
The source of most of the sand on the ring is that Gaara secretly crushed the rocks under the ring and turned them all into sand.
“Have you finally discovered it? It’s a pity it’s too late.”
Gaara had no expression on his face, stretched out his hand forward, and said in a cold voice, "Quicksand Storm!"
The next second.
Amid a loud rumbling sound, the entire arena suddenly sank and turned into a desert in an instant.
Crash.
Violent waves of sand filled the stadium, just like real waves, rushing towards Deidara one after another, trying to engulf him.
Whoosh.
Even Sasuke had to retreat to the sidelines, looking horrified.
Taki Ninja's Luo actually turned the entire arena into quicksand, leaving Deidara unable to find a place to stay.
If this continues, Deidara will lose.
“Haha, there are two brushes.”
Facing the surging sand waves, Deidara still smiled confidently, and then jumped into the air.
Leave the ground temporarily?
It’s useless, just struggling to the death. In mid-air, the person lost his point of leverage, could no longer change direction or dodge, and became a living target.
Gaara did not hesitate and controlled the sand wave to sweep towards Deidara.
However, this battle was not as easy as Gaara imagined.
.
Deidara, who was in mid-air, quickly reached into the ninja tool bag on his waist, grabbed a white clay bird, and then completed the seal.
After the banging cloud of white smoke dissipated.
咻.
The little bird from before turned into a big clay bird, flapped its wings, and carried Deidara into the sky. In an instant, it was out of the attack range of the sand wave and flew above the stadium.
Saw this scene.
“Hey, referee, that guy has left the ring!”
“This should be considered cheating, so I’ll be punished immediately!”
The Taki ninjas in the stands, as well as some of the gamblers who had placed bets on Deidara, all stood up and shouted impatiently.
However, Sasuke frowned and stared at Deidara in the sky for a while, and ignored the noisy sounds, but announced:
“The game continues!”
In the opinion of Sasuke, the referee.
Luo's sand ninjutsu is too advantageous in the ring and is very unfair to other people. Since Deidara has a way to deal with it, he should be allowed to use it well.
Besides, most of the audience would not agree if the game was immediately decided as a loss just after it started.
You haven’t had enough of watching it yet.
As soon as Sasuke finished speaking, Deidara launched a counterattack.
“Let’s use chakra level C1 first to see how deep this guy is.”
Deidara, who was on the back of the bird, muttered to himself, and took out a handful of small clay spiders from the ninja tool bag on his waist.
The key to his art lies in this explosive clay.
If you are not prepared in advance and just temporarily create explosive clay during the battle, it will be difficult to take advantage and put yourself at a disadvantage.
But the opposite.
If enough explosive clay is prepared in advance, Deidara will have the confidence to use his art to defeat any powerful enemy.
At this time, he had a huge ninja bag on his left and right waists, filled with explosive clay he had made overnight.
Kurotsuchi once thought that Deidara was just carefree and didn't take the game seriously. He even stayed up late watching entertainment programs on Konoha TV before the game.
In fact, he was doing "handiwork" and actively preparing for war.
The explosive clay in these two ninja kits is enough for the finals, not to mention the semi-finals.
By the way, I left some more "ammunition" to take care of Uchiha Sasuke.
唰.
Deidara threw his hand, and dozens of clay spiders fell from the air, aiming at Gaara on the ground.
“Quick, camera No. 3 cuts the camera and zooms in!”
With the urging of the director in the studio, the little spiders were captured by cameras arranged in the field, and close-ups were shown on the big screen.
“Hey, what is that thing? It’s so ugly and weird.”
“It’s so disgusting, it gave me goosebumps.”
In the stands, Sasuke's fans started to complain.
Idiots really don’t understand art.
Deidara sneered in his heart. Seeing the little spider land on Gaara's head, he immediately formed a seal with one hand and shouted:
“Art is explosion, drink!”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a bang, and the little spider exploded, turning into blazing fire and swallowing Gaara.
but.
Gaara dared to stand where he was and not dodge, so he must have something to rely on.
That is his sand.
“The defense strength is pretty good. So... what about C2, can it still be blocked?”
Deidara didn't panic at all, after all, it was just a test, so he took out another fat and white clay pig and threw it out.
Bang!
The little pig expanded and transformed in the air, turning into a fat pig three meters long. It also had two pairs of wings, which flapped so fast that only an afterimage could be seen.
咻.
The clay pig was extremely fast, like a missile, easily breaking through the blockade of Gaara Sunako and landing on the latter's head again.
In addition, Deidara also had a dirty trick.
When the clay pig was about to reach the ground, it split into two without any warning. In addition to aiming at Gaara, the other one suddenly flew towards Sasuke not far away.
Obviously.
Deidara was too lazy to wait for the playoffs. In his opinion, a touted figure like Sasuke could be easily dealt with now.
Oops.
Sasuke's eyes were focused, and his pair of Sharingan saw through the flight path of the clay pig. He immediately reacted and flashed to the left.
Boom.
The clay pig still exploded.
Although Sasuke reacted quickly, the opponent sneak attacked and the explosion was too powerful, causing him to be injured.
uluulu.
Sasuke flew out of the fire and smoke and rolled on the ground more than a dozen times. His clothes and hair were singed, and he looked extremely miserable.
“Sasuke, are you okay?”
“Stop the game, that Deidara actually attacked the referee!”
The Sasuke fans in the stands were all panicked.
But when it comes to Deidara deliberately attacking the referee, he can completely argue that it was because Sasuke and Gaara were too close, causing his clay missile to misjudge the target.
Besides, he is just a genin, and Sasuke is a jounin. Even if he is not careful, is Sasuke so easy to get hurt?
In the final analysis, weakness is the original sin.
What is more worthy of concern at the moment is the situation of Luo in Takinin Village.
After all, in the face of Deidara's attack, even Sasuke had a hard time dodging the explosion and saving his life. But Luo didn't even hide.
That guy...couldn't he have been killed?
The results were once again surprising.
After the smoke of the explosion dissipated, only a ball made of sand was left on the ground, protecting Gaara and leaving him unscathed.
Sand Shield.
“Is it sand that even C2 can’t penetrate?”
When Deidara saw this scene, he was surprised and couldn't help but become more excited. Only such a guy deserves to be his opponent, not that embroidered pillow Uchiha Sasuke.
Temari and Kankuro in the stands looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes, and then blurted out at the same time:
“It’s Gaara!”
It can’t be wrong.
The sand used by Gaara is very special, because it was transformed into the sand after the death of his mother Garura. It has a defensive strength that far exceeds that of steel, and will automatically protect Gaara.
This is the absolute defense of sand.
Through careful observation, Temari and Kankuro were now 100% sure that the Taki-nin genin named "Law" in the ring was their long-lost brother——
gaara.
But why, Gaara was clearly kidnapped by Akatsuki back then, but now he appears in Taki-nin's team? Moreover, he had no intention of recognizing Temari and the two.
“What should we do now?” Kankuro asked.
“Don’t act rashly yet.”
Temari's eyes narrowed and she said in a deep voice, "Gaara is a one-tailed jinchuriki. Don't forget, it is rumored that the Sixth Hokage wants to collect all the tailed beasts to realize a huge ambition. Once Gaara's identity is exposed, he is likely to He would be captured on the spot, and what would happen if the jinchūriki had his tailed beast taken away..."
"I see."
Kankuro nodded solemnly, and then stopped mentioning the word Gaara.
Fortunately.
Except for the two of them, the rest of the people didn’t know Gaara that well, so they didn’t recognize him yet.
In other words, we can’t be sure like them, that boy is Gaara.
The highest stand.
“That child…”
Kazekage Chiyo looked surprised. The more she looked at him, the more she felt that Luo's appearance and the ninjutsu he used were very familiar, reminding her of Rasa, the Fourth Kazekage.
at this time.
After two rounds of high-altitude bombing by Deidara.
Shasha.
A large amount of sand quickly gathered at Gaara's feet, lifting him up into the sky.
The arena of this competition has also been moved from the ground to the sky.
Continue.
As Gaara opened his arms, there was another loud noise in the stadium, and the sand he had created earlier turned into waterfalls rising into the sky.
What a spectacular scene this is.
Whether it was the audience at the venue or the audience in front of the TV, they were all transfixed at this moment.
The exciting part has just begun.
In the air, Gaara manipulated countless sands and continued to pursue Deidara fiercely.
Deidara also controlled the big clay bird under his feet, making various difficult dodges, sudden stops and turns in the air, narrowly escaping every attack from Gaara.
咻!
The big clay bird flew a small circle close to the stands, and the sand followed closely and passed through the auditorium. Suddenly, many people were scared out of their wits and hid under their seats in embarrassment.
The audience was in a state of uproar for a while.
“Hahaha, interesting.”
Deidara laughed and looked like he was having a great time.
With a thought in his mind, he even deliberately flew over from the highest stand, and even took the time to make faces at the Five Shadows and the Daimyos.
“Damyo-sama, be careful!”
“Protect the Daimyo quickly!”
In an instant, Konoha ANBU and the guards brought by the daimyo rushed out from the darkness and surrounded the frightened daimyo.
"Deidara, what are you doing? Be more serious!"
Ohnoki was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and angrily yelled at Deidara who flew away. Then he turned around hurriedly and apologized to all the daimyo.
"Such a naughty disciple is really a headache. With Tsuchikage's old bones, he must have been tortured a lot."
Terumi Mei sighed quietly, and then glanced at Suan quietly.
Deidara first provoked Uchiha Sasuke, and then acted like this, obviously not giving any face to the Uchiha clan and Konoha.
Logically speaking, as the Hokage, Duan should be angry at this time, right?
Unexpectedly, Duan leisurely sat on the chair with a faint smile on his face, seeming to find all of this very interesting.
Terumi Mei couldn't help but shook her head.
This sixth generation Hokage has an elusive personality. Except for himself, I am afraid no one knows what he is thinking.
For example, Terumi Mei, I still haven’t been able to figure it out until now.
He clearly used Sharingan to control her Mizukage, making her kneel on the ground and call her master, holding the fate of Kirigakure in her hands.
But in the end, Dan easily dispelled Terumi Mei's illusion and asked her for nothing.
Boom.
The explosion in the air brought Terumi Mei's thoughts back to reality.
She looked up and saw that the aerial duel between Deidara and Gaara had reached a fever pitch, and the winner was about to be decided.
