Chapter 212
Title: Sasori of the Red Sand... (BONUS CHAPTER)
….
-Kiba POV-
I can feel my body starting to get crushed by the iron sand. Immediately chakra runs through my body and I am covered in black markings all over my body, only activating stage one of the
*boom*
I easily break through the Iron Sand and try to immediately go on attack, I see that Sasori is frowning when I do that. So he isn't panicking at all, then a direct attack on his body would most likely be useless just like the previous times… so…
*fwosh*
I go for his arm and rip it off. But I immediately feel something weird, the arm is… I look down at it… sh*t, is his whole body a puppet.
I see that his hand drops off and a hidden knife appears from the arm that I ripped off, and the blade comes towards my head. I immediately jump back with a frown on my face.
I give Chiyo a side glance and see that she and Sakura are fighting the puppet who seems to be able to somehow have the Kekkei Genkai for Iron Sand control.
Sasori is fighting all three of us without high difficulty… even if I win like this… can this be called a true win. I know that as I am right now, I can't defeat someone like Sasori head on. But… I will never lose!
Not to someone like Sasori, nor to anyone else. I can't lose, once I lose I will never be able to stop losing, dad always said that and he has never lost. I want to be just like my father, so I too… WILL NEVER LOSE!!!!
My curse mark enters stage two…
Immediately I can feel my senses sharpen and an instinctual rise, but I easily suppress both of them.
I look at the S Rank Ninja in front of me… I can instinctively feel it. This is not enough. I need MORE!!!
I can feel my body starting to overheat. Akamaru jumps off and transforms back to his real form he looks at me.
*bark*
I stop as I hear Akamaru. I look at him and see the worried look on his face. I smile at this. "Don't worry Akamaru, I will never lose."
He barks one more time. I stop for a split second and answer to him. "You are right Akamaru, you are my ninken… so help me never lose."
I am surrounded by a huge cloud of smoke and my senses go into overdrive. I can feel my senses starting to slip away… NO!! I will control this power perfectly.
….
-General POV-
Sasori's eyes widen at the… thing in front of him. He immediately starts to summon his army of puppet but…
*fwosh*
He feels a huge gust of wind behind him, which pushes his hair up. He hears a creepy voice behind him say. "I will win. ORA!"
He punches Sasori and before he can react he is plummeted into the ground breaking his body to pieces. But Kiba's attacks don't stop. "Ora!Ora!Ora!Ora!Ora!Ora!."
*BOOOM*
Creating a giant crater below him… Chiyo and Sakura look at this, surprised at Kiba's and his attitude.
..
But it doesn't take long as ten seconds later.
*poof*
The giant Werewolf mode is dispelled and Kiba together with Akamaru are in the ground. Kiba is almost unconscious just like his ninken, but before he slips into unconsciousness due to chakra exhaustion he puts his hand up. "I…-I won."
And he immediately slips into unconsciousness.
"Yes, you did." Says a voice belonging to neither Sakura or Chiyo. They look and see the head of Sasori, it has cracks all around and it seems all broken. "It seems like I was defeated… that kid is truly something isn't he."
Chiyo takes this time to get close to him and she looks at her grandson with a sad look in her eyes. "Sasori…"
Though Sasori can't see anything anymore and this is only a piece of his resident chakra talking through the head. As his weak point is already destroyed by Kiba's rampage.
"Don't worry grandma Chiyo." Says Sasori. "I have already made my choice."
He then 'looks' at the sky as he thinks of his parents. "Though I never planned on dying this way…"
Chiyo doesn't say anything as she uses her chakra strings to manipulate the two puppets who look like Sasori's parents… they go and hug Sasori's head. When he feels that his face morphs into a smile. "Tell the kid that he has a long way before he can even look at his father's shadow."
Chiyo looks down sadly. But Sasori can't see this so he just says. "By the way, I heard that you are looking for Orochimaru. I have a trade meeting with him in Tenchi Bridge in the Land of Grass."
His chakra starts leaking away until it all of his chakra dissipates, but not before he whispers. "Can you believe it the guy didn't even dare enter the Land of Fire…"
….
During the time of the fight with Sasori, Naruto and Kakashi were chasing after Deidara. Kakashi activated his own version of the Mangekyō Sharingan and aimed to use it to take Deidara's head. However, it was difficult to aim, and all he managed to remove was his arm. Deidara tried to retreat, but Naruto destroyed his clay bird with Rasengan and retrieved Gaara's body.
Enraged and powered by the Nine Tail's
powers, Naruto seemed to be defeating Deidara with Rasengan, but it turned out to be a Clay Clone. Still enraged, Naruto started to appear feral as he transformed into his two-tailed form. Kakashi recognised the bad sign and used a seal tag he had received from Jiraiya to stop the transformation from proceeding any further. Naruto subsequently reverted back to his normal form.
As the rest of Team Kakashi and Team Guy caught up with Naruto and Kakashi, Deidara found himself unable to escape. He swallowed some clay, turning himself into a human bomb.
Neji sees this and tells everyone to get away. Deidara then swelled up and detonated. As the dust settled, Kakashi collapsed from exhaustion, explaining that he used his Mangekyō Sharingan to send the explosion to another dimension. With Naruto carrying Gaara's body, the two teams headed back to Sunagakure.
….
….
Stopping in a grassy field near the village, Sakura checked on Gaara and pronounced him dead, making Naruto very upset. Chiyo moved towards Gaara and tried to use her reincarnation technique, but didn't have enough life force left to bring Gaara back to life. Naruto gladly lent his own chakra, and Chiyo was able to revive Gaara at the cost of her own life while the shinobi of Suna watched.
While this happens Kiba is still unconscious due to his extreme chakra exhaustion.
….
But during this time at the battlefield where 'Deidara' suicide exploded himself. The ground moves a little and someone comes out from underground.
It is Deidara, he had one of his clones explode, making it seem like he himself did a suicide bombing.
Suddenly out of the trees two people wearing Akatsuki clothing appear. One of them is wearing a spiral orange mask with the only opening in one eye of the mask, this is Tobi. The other seems like he is half fused with the tree and half of it seems like made out of darkness while the other half is pale. This is Zetsu.
Tobi looks at Deidara's pitiful state and he cheerfully says. "Yo! I am Tobi. So you were pitifully defeated huh…"
Deidara seems annoyed at this. "Who the hell are you bastard."
"He is your new partner." Says Zetsu.
"Yep! It is I, the most powerful ninja… Tobi."
Deidara frowns at this. "I don't need this clown as my partner."
Zetsu just melts into the tree. "Sure, solve this amongst yourselves. Just do it quick or Yami Inuzuka will flood this place with his mosquitoes and you will both be dead then."
*tch* Deidara is annoyed but he still listens to Zetsu and starts walking away.
"Ohhh… Deidara -sempai… you don't have any arms, I just noticed. Wow, you really got beat up like a weakling."
A tick mark appears on Deidara's forehead. "Why you!!!"
…..
AUTHOR NOTE:
Orochimaru already told the Akatsuki about Yami's spy network and different spy methods. Also everyone is cautious of Yami as it can be seen.
P.S: When Kiba fought Sasori he had no information on Sasori. So he went clueless in the fights, except knowing that he was a good puppeteer. That is why several times he was surprised by Sasori's abilities.
P.P.S: Orochimaru and the Akatsuki don't have a bad relationship, even though Orochimaru left the Organization and still keeps his Akatsuki ring around. They have the same bigger enemy… Yami. This is a change from canon, because of Yami's presence, and even though he tries to stop too many deviations, Yami still couldn't control everything.
Like always, you get +1 chapter for that day if the story reaches 2000 power stones.
