Battle with Deidara

Deidara was caught off guard by Uzumaki Hane's sudden attack and landed on the rooftop to his left, looking disheveled and disheveled.

Deidara glared angrily at Uzumaki Hane, wanting to see who had ruined his art. He saw a red-haired boy staring at him; it must have been him who had launched the attack. Upon closer inspection, wasn't this the target he was looking for?

Deidara asked, "Hey, are you Uzumaki Hane Yu?"

Uzumaki Hane looked at Deidara and said, "I didn't expect Akatsuki to come knocking so quickly. Are you here to get this?" Uzumaki Hane took out Kakuzu's ring from his person.

Deidara looked at the ring and said, "I did come to collect the ring, but do you recognize us?"

Uzumaki Hane said, "Deidara, missing-nin from Iwagakure in the Land of Earth. You're dressed like Kakuzu, so you must be from Akatsuki too."

Deidara's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Looks like you know quite a lot." He lifted his trench coat with both hands, already reaching into the pouch at his waist, and began to devour the clay.

Deidara thought to himself, "I'll use C1 to test him first." He chewed clay with both hands, mixing it with Chakra, and created dozens of Clay Spider, which he then threw at Uzumaki Hane.

Uzumaki Hane naturally wouldn't allow the spiders to explode near him. His right hand quickly turned into lava, and he unleashed dozens of Magma Senbon, piercing through the spiders in mid-air.

Deidara: "Drink!" The Clay Spider suddenly exploded.

At this moment, seeing that the Clay Spider couldn't deal with Uzumaki Hane, Deidara conjured several small birds with his hands and sent Uzumaki Hane again.

Uzumaki Hane wouldn't let the birds explode in front of her. With a sudden swing of her right hand, more than a dozen Lava Shuriken shot out, piercing through the birds before they even reached her.

At the same time, Uzumaki Hane said, "Gozu, protect Shion."

Then, Uzumaki Hane shouted to the surrounding soldiers, "You all go down first, I'll handle this." The soldiers greatly admired Uzumaki Hane, and upon hearing this, they all retreated.

Then, Uzumaki Hane flashed and rushed towards Deidara on the left rooftop. With a casual wave of his hand, more than a dozen Lava Shuriken out.

Deidara's figure flashed, leaping off the rooftop and dodging Uzumaki Hane's Lava Shuriken. His hands were already in his waist pouch as he said to Uzumaki Hane, "Let me play with you." Seeing how easily Asuka had been hit by Uzumaki Hane, Deidara conjured a dozen clay ants with his right hand and sent them leaping towards Uzumaki Hane.

The ants were very small, and if Uzumaki Hane hadn't been paying close attention to Deidara's movements, she wouldn't have noticed them so quickly. Uzumaki Hane opened her mouth and spewed out a ball of magma, engulfing the attacking ants.

Deidara: "Drink!" The ants suddenly exploded, scattering lava everywhere. A Magma Wall appeared in front of Uzumaki Hane, blocking the impact of the explosion.

Deidara said, "So what if it's this move, hmm." He held Uzumaki Hane in his hands and spat out white clay from the mouths on his hands, which turned into two clay figures and rushed towards Uzumaki Hane.

Two white puppets rushed towards Uzumaki Yushi. Uzumaki Hane the first puppet in the stomach with his right fist, but he felt the puppet's body was full of elasticity, dissipating his force. However, the high temperature of his fist was something the puppet couldn't withstand, burning its stomach off in two, leaving it limp on the ground. The other puppet suddenly threw a punch, its left hand raised, steadily blocking the blow. At that moment, two white clay lines connected the white clay lying on the ground, and the clay immediately transformed into two smaller clay puppets.

Uzumaki Hane thought to himself, "As expected, these puppets will multiply as we fight. However, without Deidara's control, they haven't exploded."

Three puppets charged towards Uzumaki Hane. Uzumaki Hane punched the largest puppet in two, instantly splitting it into two more. White spikes shot out from the two smaller puppets, but Uzumaki Hane's right hand produced a lava shield that blocked the spikes and sent them flying. Then, the shield transformed into a lava javelin, which shot out like a red Inazuma, pinning the two white puppets to the ground.

At this moment, two other newly created white puppets, under Deidara's control, rushed in front of Uzumaki Hane, one on the left and one on the right, their heads suddenly extending and slamming down on him. Uzumaki Hane dodged the attack, kicking the right puppet's stomach with his right foot. The puppet's stomach elastically extended, dissipating the force of the kick. The left puppet's arm transformed into a sharp spear, thrusting out in the opening. Uzumaki Hane performed a backflip to avoid the attack, and at the same time, a lava javelin appeared in his right hand, pinning the left puppet to the ground.

Several sharp spikes suddenly shot out from the puppet on the right, attempting to pierce through Uzumaki Hane. Uzumaki Hane leaped up, and a lava javelin appeared in his right hand again, piercing through the white puppet's head and pinning it to the ground.

Deidara chuckled and said, "It's not over yet." Suddenly, the four white puppets that had been pinned to the ground began to struggle, breaking off from where they had been thrown by the javelins. They collapsed to the ground, and then several white clay lines connected, instantly creating eight more white puppets.

Seeing this, Uzumaki Hane naturally wouldn't let it succeed and charged towards the clay.

Deidara naturally knew Uzumaki Hane's plan. The clay closest to Uzumaki Hane suddenly exploded, and a Magma Wall appeared in front of Uzumaki Hane, blocking the aftershocks of the explosion.

At this moment, the seven white puppets stood up and, under Deidara's control, continued to rush towards Uzumaki Hane.

The first two puppets rushed in front of Uzumaki Hane, their right hands transforming into spears, one on the left and one on the right, simultaneously thrusting towards Uzumaki Hane. Uzumaki Hane's left arm also quickly transformed into lava, each producing a lava javelin, which also thrust towards the white puppet. Given Uzumaki Hane's speed, it would definitely hit the white puppet first.

But Deidara's attack wasn't like that. He muttered, "Haha, almost there. Can we begin? Drink."

The first two white puppets exploded. With a deafening roar, the explosion engulfed Uzumaki Hane.

Deidara watched the explosion amidst billowing smoke and dust, and said with satisfaction, "Uzumaki Hane really isn't anything special, hmm."

At that moment, from the smoke and dust, Uzumaki Hane burst forth, taking advantage of Deidara's unpreparedness, leaping over the white doll and charging towards Deidara. Simultaneously, a lava javelin appeared in his right hand and shot it fiercely towards Deidara.

The lava javelin appeared before Deidara like a streak of red Inazuma. Deidara dodged the lava javelin with a clumsy effort, but Uzumaki Hane had already reached him.

Uzumaki Hane's right arm suddenly swelled to ten times its original size and slammed down towards Deidara's head.

Several Clay Spider appeared from Deidara's right mouth and flew towards Uzumaki Hane. Then Deidara shouted, "Hah!" and the Clay Spider exploded violently.
