Chapter 507, Number C38
In the northeast direction, on the battlefield of the Hidden Clouds, not far from the Hidden Clouds' base, lies a dark and deep cave.
The cave was filled with a damp and cold atmosphere, and the faint sound of the wind whistling past outside could be heard.
At this moment, Deidara was sitting listlessly on a rock, constantly kneading the clay in his hands and muttering to himself:
"It's so boring to just sit here and wait like this!"
Sasori, meanwhile, was focused on maintaining his beloved puppet, ignoring Deidara's complaints.
However, this wasn't the first time such a scene had happened, and Sasori was already used to it, so he didn't respond to Deidara's words.
However, Deidara wouldn't stay quiet so easily. Suddenly, an idea struck him, and he slapped his forehead, shouting excitedly:
"Brother Scorpion, how about we take the initiative and attack the Cloud Village's base? That would definitely be very interesting!"
After saying that, his eyes gleamed with eager anticipation, as if he could already see the scene of a fierce battle.
The loss of ring communication has made obtaining intelligence somewhat difficult.
Their mission this time is to find a way to slow down the advance of the Cloud Village.
However, the three battlefields are currently far apart, and Konan is unable to learn about the specific situation of the Iwagakure battlefield and the River Country battlefield in a timely manner.
Therefore, they must firmly grasp the initiative.
At this moment, Xiao Nan is carefully setting up explosive tag traps outside the cave to enhance its defensive capabilities;
Kakuzu then went to the nearby black market to obtain the latest intelligence on the enemy.
Besides Deidara and Sasori, Kisame Hoshigaki was also left in the cave.
Deidara simply didn't have a good impression of Kisame Hoshigaki.
In his eyes, Kisame Hoshigaki was a burly, uncouth man with absolutely no artistic talent.
Upon hearing Deidara's words, Sasori's hands, which had been meticulously tending to the puppet, suddenly paused.
He slowly raised his head, his gaze coldly fixed on Deidara:
"Kumakushi Village has eight thousand people. Aren't you afraid of dying at all?"
However, Deidara seemed completely unconcerned and casually replied:
"So what if there are many of them? You have to understand, not many of them can actually fly."
"Look at the Mizukage of Kirigakure, he blew up their village and they couldn't do anything about it."
Upon hearing this, Scorpion merely gave a cold laugh and then fell silent.
Deidara naturally understood the meaning behind Sasori's smile.
— Clearly, Scorpion disagrees with his own opinion.
But Deidara has always been childlike, and the more he is opposed by others, the stronger his desire to prove himself becomes.
So he shouted:
"Since none of you dare to go, fine, I'll go by myself!"
Before he finished speaking, he had already quickly sculpted a clay bird.
Without hesitation, they mounted the horse and sped off towards the outside of the cave.
Kisame Hoshigaki, watching Deidara charge out alone, couldn't help but grin and turn to Sasori, saying:
"Sasori, that brat Deidara actually went and attacked Kumogakure all by himself."
He paused, then continued jokingly:
"Speaking of which, Deidara seems to respect you quite a bit."
"What, aren't you even a little worried that he'll be killed by those guys from Yunyin during this operation?"
Despite Kisame's question, Sasori remained focused on maintaining the puppet in his hands.
As if they hadn't heard, they showed absolutely no intention of responding.
However, upon closer inspection, it can be observed that the speed of the scorpion's movements has noticeably increased.
Seeing this, Kisame Hoshigaki didn't say anything more and leaned against the wall, pretending to doze off.
……
After Killer Bee was poisoned last time, the people of Kumogakure did not hesitate to retreat completely.
Their actions clearly show that these people intend to wait until Kirabi has fully recovered before taking any action.
The operation in Yunyin Village this time can be described as a step-by-step and steady advance. Not only are the supplies sufficient, but the personnel responsible for reconnaissance are also fully prepared.
After all, their arrival was not merely a simple probe, but rather carried the important mission of serving as the vanguard in the invasion of the Land of Fire.
On such a dark and windy night, Deidara sat alone and quietly atop his clay bird, soaring thousands of meters in the sky.
He was chewing clay continuously, seemingly carefully mixing it in some proportion.
"Whenever a lot of clay is needed, the process is always a bit slow, hmm."
Deidara is planning to create a massive clay bomb, and he has been chewing clay for quite some time to prepare for it.
As he continued chewing the clay, he fell into deep thought, wondering whether he should add a mouth to his hands.
After all, during the Thousand Radiance Illusion he had experienced before, he had personally witnessed the mouth that he had modified in his hands.
However, after a moment's thought, he gently shook his head and muttered to himself:
"If I had an extra mouth, it would be less convenient to use the Dust Release technique."
For Deidara, Dust Release remains an extremely powerful and practical ninjutsu skill.
However, the consumption is too high now, so he doesn't use it often.
He secretly resolved to further improve and refine it.
But now...
Deidara couldn't help but show a hint of excitement, his gaze fixed on the clay figure that had already taken shape in his hands.
"C3 Number 18!"
Didarabi successfully completed the clay bomb several years ahead of schedule.
Tonight is the perfect opportunity for him to try this technique for the first time.
He took a deep breath, his hands quickly formed hand seals, and his chakra poured into the clay bomb like a tidal wave.
In the blink of an eye, the seemingly ordinary clay lump began to expand and deform at a speed visible to the naked eye, eventually transforming into the doll-shaped C3 No. 18!
Deidara stared intently at the C3 No. 18 statue before him.
They simply threw it down.
C3 plummeted downwards.
Due to the influence of gravity, it falls faster and faster.
The defenses of the Hidden Cloud Village are extremely tight.
Given that the Akatsuki had deployed three members with flying abilities, the Hidden Cloud Village dared not let their guard down.
Dozens of elite ninjas, riding well-trained giant eagles, had already been dispatched to patrol the skies in order to prevent any unforeseen events.
Just then, C3-18, carrying intense chakra fluctuations, suddenly broke through layers of clouds and crashed straight into the Cloud Village camp.
