Chasing Deidara

Might Guy initially overwhelmed the imposter Might Guy with his sheer passion, but the Might Guy also knew all of Might Guy's moves. As a result, the Might Guy gradually adapted to Might Guy's attacks and ended up suppressing Might Guy.

Neji's eyes narrowed, and he unleashed a Chakra shockwave with a "Air Palm." The imposter Neji seemed to possess the Byakugan as well, easily dodging the attack. He then charged towards Neji, waving several Kunai with both hands, Neji immediately spun around and used "Rotation" to block the incoming Kunai.

Full of passion, Rock Lee shouted, "Leaf Great Whirlwind!" and attacked the imposter Rock Lee. The imposter Rock Lee also used "Leaf Great Whirlwind," and the Rock Lee clashed.

Rock Lee stepped back and said, "It seems that it will be difficult to determine a winner in a short time." He then unleashed another "Konoha Whirlwind" attack, charging towards the imposter Rock Lee.

Tenten pulls out a scroll from her back, unleashing countless blades that fly out in dense barrages, attacking the imposter Tenten. The imposter Tenten also fires out countless ninja tools, and the two are locked in a stalemate.

Looking at the imposter Tenten, who was slightly out of breath, Tenten said, "Both of them have the exact same abilities as me, they're really troublesome."

Gradually, Rock Lee, Tenten, and Neji also found themselves gradually being suppressed by their imposters, but they had no choice but to try their best to keep going.

Deidara, controlling the giant bird, hovered in the air, looking down and thinking to himself, "Damn it, Uzumaki Hane is even stronger than last time, and the remaining two ninjas are not weak either. With Brother Sasori's strength, he should be able to deal with the people inside very quickly. It seems I have to lure Uzumaki Hane to a more distant place, hmm." He then turned and left, riding the giant bird.

Naruto, of course, wouldn't let Deidara escape, shouting, "Damn it, put Gaara down!" Naruto's eyes had turned into vertical pupils, and his speed suddenly increased as he chased after Deidara.

Kakashi, fearing for Naruto's safety, hurriedly followed, while Uzumaki Hane also increased his speed, quickly overtaking Naruto and catching up with Deidara.

Deidara turned to look at the three below, thinking to himself, "Not bad, hurry up and catch up, hmm." He then controlled the giant bird to increase its speed.

Deidara's ability to fly was clearly an advantage he was using to draw the three into his fighting rhythm.

Uzumaki Hane frowned, his right hand quickly turning into lava, and he threw a punch at Deidara. A Rock Fist rushed towards Deidara.

Deidara's lips curled into a smile, and just as the Rock Fist was about to strike Deidara giant bird beneath his feet, he skillfully maneuvered the bird to dodge the attack.

Uzumaki Hane did not continue attacking, because if she did not control the angle well, she might accidentally injure Gaara on the giant bird.

Deidara controlled the giant bird to circle once in the air, clearly as a provocation, before continuing to fly forward.

Seeing this, Naruto flew into a rage again, shouting, "Bastard, bastard, if you have the Gaara down, you bastard..."

Deidara was clearly not that foolish as to abandon his advantage, so he circled around again and provoked Deidara.

Kakashi's eyes narrowed, and lightning crackled in his right hand. A bolt of lightning pierced through the giant bird's head, nearly striking Deidara above.

Seeing the opportunity, Naruto took out another scroll from his body, pulled out a huge Shuriken from it, threw it with force, and rushed in front of the giant bird in the blink of an eye, severing the bird's head.

Upon seeing this, Deidara leaped into the air, Uzumaki Hane shouted, unleashing Rock Fist that hurtled towards Deidara.

Deidara conjured a giant bird in his right hand, caught him in mid-air, and soared into the sky again, dodging Uzumaki Hane's Rock Fist, but he no longer had a chance to catch Gaara.

Worried Uzumaki Hane Deidara would detonate the giant bird, Uzumaki Yu unleashed punch after punch, Rock Fist relentlessly pounding towards Deidara. Deidara could only control the giant bird, flying forward.

Watching Gaara fall from the giant bird, Deidara thought to himself, "Oh well, the One-Tail has already been extracted, so this corpse is useless now. Besides, it can hold off the other two ninjas, allowing me to fight Uzumaki Hane alone."

Naruto called out, "Kakashi-sensei..."

Kakashi understood, grabbed Naruto, and shoved Naruto toward Gaara in the air. However, he couldn't reach Gaara. Naruto quickly Hand Seals, created a Shadow Clone, pulled himself up, threw it next to Gaara, and fell from the sky.

Naruto, unsure of Gaara's condition, carefully landed on the tree trunk and called out to Gaara, "Gaara, are you alright? Wake up, Gaara..." But Gaara did not respond, his fate unknown.

Kakashi approached Naruto, his heart heavy. The extraction of the Tailed Beast from Jinchūriki's body almost always meant certain death, so Gaara was likely beyond saving.

Naruto, however, refused to give up, repeatedly calling out Gaara: "Gaara, Gaara, wake up, Gaara..."

Uzumaki Hane watched Deidara fly forward, his eyes burning with killing intent. This time, he would not let him escape again. He suddenly accelerated and chased after Deidara.

Deidara seemed to know that Uzumaki Hane was coming after him, a smirk playing on his lips, as he controlled the giant bird to increase its speed.

At this moment, Gaara had already been rescued, and Uzumaki Hane no longer held back. With a loud shout, his right hand suddenly swelled to ten times its original size, and a lava javelin appeared in his hand. He threw it at Deidara, and the lava javelin transformed into a lava Inazuma, instantly piercing through the giant bird.

Deidara leaped into the air, controlling the giant bird to swoop down. At the same time, he conjured another giant bird to catch himself, suspending him in mid-air.

The giant bird rushed in front of Uzumaki Hane and suddenly exploded. With a loud bang, Kakkō shot into the sky and instantly engulfed Uzumaki Hane.

Deidara looked down and said, "The Explosive Clay used by the giant bird is C3 mixed with the highest level of Chakra. Art is an Explosion, hmm."

Boom! A Rock Fist blasted through the dust and rushed towards Deidara. Deidara was caught off guard but managed to narrowly avoid the Rock Fist.

Deidara steadied the giant bird and looked down, only to see that Uzumaki Hane's entire body had turned into magma, the ground beneath his feet had melted directly due to the high temperature of the lava, and the surrounding air was distorted by the high temperature.

Uzumaki Hane looked at Deidara and said, "Deidara, this time I won't let you escape."

Deidara roared, "Uzumaki Hane, today I'll show you my sublime art!"

Uzumaki Hane scoffed, Teuchi two Rock Fist that hurtled toward Deidara.

Deidara controlled the giant bird, nimbly dodging the attacks. He threw down a white doll with his right hand, which exploded violently, sending Kakkō soaring into the sky.
