If Itachi hadn't arrived in time, Killer Bee might already be a prisoner.
He was a crucial fighting force in the battle against Kirigakure; if he were captured, Kumogakure would lose everything.
Itachi and Shisui found Killer Bee's communication style rather uncomfortable and somewhat helpless.
Yaoyue responded on his behalf: "We are allies, these are minor matters."
With the Uchiha clan around, your safety is our responsibility.
Yaoyue was filled with pride, feeling extremely honored that the Cloud Village people trusted the Uchiha so much.
Meanwhile, Yukito's face remained pale, and her injuries were the most bizarre.
There were no visible external wounds, but the internal organs appeared to be severely damaged, leaving the medical ninjas of Kumogakure helpless.
As a Jinchūriki, she naturally possessed powerful regenerative abilities, yet her injuries healed slowly, demonstrating the peculiarity of the curse.
Recalling when he first arrived on the island, Yugito firmly believed that he would not be rescued by the Uchiha, but he was soon proven wrong.
Although slightly embarrassed, the other party was, after all, his/her savior, and it was still necessary to express gratitude.
"Um... Yaoyue, thank you and Zhishui for saving me."
Seeing the usually arrogant Yukito humbly express his gratitude, Yaoyue felt very satisfied.
"Hahaha, it's nothing, you're our allies after all..."
Thud...!
Before she finished speaking, Yaoyue disappeared from the spot.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized—reverse psychic magic!
Before the Cloud Village members could understand what was happening, Shisui had already summoned crows.
"Ah—ah—ah—!"
Shisui took the information scroll from the summoning beast, read it, and then handed it to Itachi.
Seeing the gazes of the Cloud Village members converge, Shisui's expression turned grave: "The situation is not good. The Mist Village's tsunami strategy has exposed the location and scale of your reinforcements."
"Konoha has agreed to Iwagakure's request to pass through."
"Iwagakure has already deployed troops, intending to cross the Land of Fire and launch a surprise attack on your base."
Although Kirabi's injuries had not fully healed, it did not stop him from rambling on.
"Those bastards from Iwagakure, of all times they had to choose this time, idiots, scoundrels."
Shisui shook his head in denial: "There's no need to worry. Our clan leader has already set off personally to lead the clansmen to intercept Iwagakure on the border."
"If the situation becomes critical over there, the two of us could be transferred there at any time."
"We anticipate that the Fog Shadows will intensify their offensive here, so you must be on high alert."
Killer Bee and Yugito's expressions darkened.
Iwagakure was the biggest variable in the war from beginning to end, and the core of Kawasaki's deal with Kumogakure was that Kawasaki would be responsible for restraining Iwagakure.
Everything had been going smoothly until now. Even though the Akatsuki organization, which Kirigakure had invited, was very strong, they were defeated one by one by the Uchiha.
However, Kirigakure's tsunami strategy slowed down Kumogakure's reinforcements to the front lines, and just then, two Jinchuriki were injured.
Since Iwagakure chose this moment to attack Kumogakure, Kawasaki will inevitably send two Mangekyou Sharingan users there.
We must guard against both Kumogakure and Konoha and Iwagakure joining forces.
This series of events has forced the two injured Jinchūriki of Kumogakure to face the Kirigakure's counterattack alone.
Chapter 148 Illusionary Suppression! Pain's Rinnegan! Black Zetsu and Obito!
Just as everyone was pondering how to overcome this difficulty, a messenger eagle flew in; it was Killer Bee's personal messenger.
Kirabi opened the message, so excited he wanted to jump up, but his wound reopened and he could only lie down:
"Hey! Big Brother's here ahead of time to lend a hand! He'll arrive even before the fleet!"
Itachi exchanged a glance with Shisui without making a sound.
Shisui exclaimed, "Then you are safe."
The Cloud Village members were overjoyed, as their strongest warrior, Raikage A, was their pillar of strength.
Originally worried about the impending attack from Kirigakure, everyone's spirits were lifted upon learning that the Raikage had arrived ahead of schedule.
At this moment, Itachi stood up and said, "Although reinforcements are about to arrive, we should switch from defense to offense."
"Knowing that Shisui and I could be transferred at any time, we should take the initiative."
"At least it will lighten your burden a bit, so you can be safer."
Itachi's words deeply moved the two Jinchūriki from Kumogakure.
Killer Bee was so serious he even forgot his rap: "But this will put you in danger."
Shisui stood up: "If the two of us act alone and only cause some minor disturbances to Kirigakure, it won't be too dangerous."
"Since it's a collaboration, helping each other is naturally no problem."
"Focus on recovering from your injuries. Until the Raikage arrives, we must remain vigilant and be prepared to repel any attack from Kirigakure."
"Let's scout out the movements of Kirigakure and set up some traps around the perimeter."
"If possible, we will try to restrain as many people from Kirigakure as possible."
After saying that, the two walked out together.
Yugito's voice came from behind: "Gentlemen, the Hidden Cloud Village will always remember the friendship of the Uchiha clan."
The border of the Fire Nation.
After Yaoyue told Kawasaki the information,
Kawasaki pulled Yotsuki aside, pointed at Deidara who was mixing soil, and whispered information to Yotsuki.
After a while, Deidara finally finished mixing the soil.
He strode over with an air of confidence. "Kawasaki, I'm ready to show you Uchiha people my true art... Hmm!"
Kawasaki glanced at Deidara's bulging mud-covered belt and a sly smile crept onto his lips.
Then he pulled Yaoyue over: "This is your opponent, an ordinary member of our clan."
Yaoyue said proudly, "You dare to challenge the Uchiha? I'll show you the power of the Uchiha."
Deidara sneered, put his hands into his bag and began chewing mud balls: "I'd like to see how you fight me without the Mangekyou Sharingan."
Yaoyue chuckled and drew her knife: "You'll see."
Seeing the two men on the verge of exchanging blows, Kawasaki waved for everyone to disperse, giving them some space.
The two were extremely close. Yaoyue opened his Sharingan, drew his sword, and charged towards Deidara.
Deidara squinted, wanting to test him, and with both hands, two mud spiders flew towards Yaoyue, blocking his escape routes.
Deidara gave a soft shout.
Bang bang!
Two explosions sounded.
But Yaoyue did not retreat; instead, she planted her sword in the ground and used the momentum to flip over.
And skillfully evaded the trajectories of the two bombs in mid-air.
The movements were exceptionally graceful.
Kawasaki, standing nearby, clicked his tongue in admiration: "What a graceful figure!"
Kawasaki prefers practical physical skills and dislikes such flashy moves.
Observing Yaoyue from the sidelines, he was indeed the Uchiha, the strongest dancing clan in the ninja world.
Deidara threw several more bombs, but Yaoyue dodged them all.
Soon, Deidara was cornered by the Radiant Moon.
With a single slash, Yaoyue sliced Deidara in two.
However, there was no joy on Yaoyue's face, because what lay on the ground was not Deidara's body, but just two lumps of dirt.
Bang!
Deidara suddenly leaped out from a distance, raising his hands and showering countless spiders and grasshoppers like rain.
The mud spider crawls on the ground, while the mud grasshopper is even more agile, jumping at an extremely fast speed.
It will explode immediately once it leaps to Yaoyue's side.
"Take a look, this is my art! Ha!"
call out!
BOOM BOOM BOOM...!
Grasshoppers leaped in wildly, and explosions echoed one after another.
But then, Yaoyue began to move rapidly, his weapon crackling with electricity.
The mud spiders and mud grasshoppers he struck fell helplessly to the ground.
Deidara's eyes narrowed. A master of lightning release, hmm!
Deidara rubbed his hands together, and a mud centipede appeared in his left hand, burrowing into the ground.
Some spiders also scurried in.
He conjured an owl with his right hand; it was more agile than the giant bird, but its flight height was less than that of the earthen giant bird.
Deidara flipped himself onto the mud owl and immediately took off.
After chewing a few times, he spat out a clump of clay, shaped it into a small flying bird, and threw it out.
The little bird became exceptionally agile in the air, circling the bright moon without ever colliding with it.
Deidara then created a two-winged bird that was faster than the small bird, drawing various arcs in the air and making its flight direction unpredictable.
Deidara focused on manipulating the two earthen birds, seeing that Yaoyue had dealt with his spider and grasshopper.
