Seeing that things were going wrong, Ye Liang immediately prepared to retreat.
Ye Liang never did anything he wasn't sure about. Risk and reward were never proportional!
After all, no Old Schemer would willingly put himself out in the open.
"I'm leaving first!" Ye Liang gave a warning.
Deidara did not even need to be told. He directly controlled the clay bird and flew away.
"Don't even think about leaving! Stay and serve your master!"
Kitsuchi's eyes were bloodshot, making him look like an enraged gorilla!
With a furious roar, the earthen torrent beneath his feet surged toward Ye Liang once more.

"Susanoo!"
The man within the skeletal phantom spoke softly. His expression was calm, and when he looked at Kitsuchi, there was not a trace of fear in his eyes.
"It's Uchiha Itachi! He's finally shown himself!" Ye Liang naturally recognized Itachi.
At a time like this, the only person capable of using Susanoo was Uchiha Itachi.
"No, we can't leave him behind." Ye Liang stuffed a Shuriken engraved with a Flying Thunder God Cursed Seal into Deidara's hands and immediately plunged back into the battlefield.
Itachi was buying time for them. Given his current age, he was still far from being a match for the enhanced Kitsuchi.
"Damn it! Anyone who dares destroy Master's plans must die!" Kitsuchi roared furiously again.

Great sheets of skin fell to the ground, revealing a massive White Zetsu-like figure beneath.
"It's that thing!" Ye Liang sucked in a sharp breath.
