"Hahaha..."
"Art is an Explosion!"
A trace of madness flashed in Deidara's eyes. Today, his art would shine more brilliantly than ever.
Huh?
Deidara was puzzled. Why hadn't it exploded?
His clone and the giant dragon were both made of explosive clay. By all rights, they should have exploded under his control.
Shing!
Shihōin Naraku pulled Kurikara out of the giant dragon's body, and a flash of electricity vanished in an instant.

He was going all out!
Pfft!
His mouth kept working, and soon
