Bloodline Limit - Chapter 453

Therefore, Orochimaru would definitely not bother him in this battle. After all, Orochimaru would be delighted if he were to be removed by the members of the Akatsuki. It just so happened that Sasuke was searching for Itachi while also improving his strength through battles.

With this in mind, a sharp cold light erupted in Sasuke’s eyes. His right hand gripped the Kusanagi sword, already infused with Chidori. He then rushed towards Deidara, his speed even faster. Seeing Deidara taking flight, Sasuke extended his left hand, and lightning flashed as a laser-like lightning spear shot out. Unfortunately, the attack missed Deidara by just five meters.

“Only five meters away? As expected, as Kakashi’s disciple, he indeed passed this technique on to you. However, you modified its shape transformation, making it seem weaker. Hah!” Deidara laughed and suddenly shouted. The C2 dragon immediately spewed a small C2 dragon missile directly at Sasuke.

“The power is greater than before.” Sasuke clasped his hands together and swiftly retreated. Although he avoided the explosion, the resulting shockwave blew him away. Unluckily, one of his feet landed on the location where Deidara had planted a landmine.

“Not good.” Sasuke immediately realized the danger and tried to dodge again. Unfortunately, he was a step too late, and the landmine exploded the moment he stepped on it. This was Deidara’s usual fighting style, utilizing his agility, versatility, and aerial advantage to deal with opponents who couldn’t fly or could only fly for short periods, giving him a significant advantage.

“Boom!”

Firelight flickered, and the explosion mixed with smoke directly obliterated the ground where Sasuke stood. Many rocks were sent flying, and Sasuke was not spared either.

“Darn it.” At this point, Sasuke no longer underestimated Deidara. Even in his previous state of power, he didn’t have absolute confidence in defeating Deidara, let alone the current Deidara, who was overwhelmingly strong. Even if he could win, he would only defeat the opponent and not kill them. At the same time, he would be exhausted and seriously injured, not to mention the current Deidara.

“He seems to have a good understanding of the Sharingan, but it’s not surprising, he must have watched Itachi since they were from the same organization. This is troublesome.” In a critical situation, Sasuke immediately used the Cursed Seal of Heaven, significantly increasing his overall combat power and defense.

However, his left foot was injured from the explosion, making it impossible to perform the high-speed movement he used earlier. If it were Ryoha or Tsunade, who possessed the Sage of Six Paths’ power and Wood Release, even if they had their legs blown off, they could regenerate them in the blink of an eye. Regenerating within a few seconds was definitely not a problem.

In fact, how could Itachi tell the other members of the organization about the Sharingan? Deidara’s profound understanding of the Sharingan resulted not only from his efforts but also from the information provided by Onoki about the Sharingan and how to deal with it.

“They are indeed like Orochimaru, with the disciple following the master’s path. They are all so stubborn, enjoy burning bridges, and are so vicious and disgusting. Let’s see how you dodge this time.”

Deidara felt disgusted with Sasuke, who killed his own teacher. Frankly speaking, Deidara’s perspective and views had changed significantly from before. Another guided missile was fired.

“Damn it.” Sasuke didn’t expect it to be like this. This opponent was too difficult to deal with. However, it was alright; he spread his wings from behind and rushed forward, even though half of one wing was blown off.

“Hehe, one foot immobilized and one wing lost, you are definitely going to die this time,” Deidara shouted, and the C2 dragon once again spewed a guided missile. However, this time, Sasuke jumped away again and used the smoke from the explosion to unleash the Fuuma Shurikens. He threw two of them at Deidara, but Deidara managed to dodge them.

“Tch, how could I be hit by such an attack?” Deidara said disdainfully. However, he was soon surprised because Sasuke actually pierced the Kusanagi sword into the ground to confirm there were no landmines. Then, he stepped on the hilt of the sword and jumped into the air.

The Chidori Sharp Spear was used again, but because Deidara had to avoid the attack of the windmill blades, he fell within the range predicted by the Sharingan. Sasuke’s Chidori Sharp Spear cut through one of the dragon-like wings.

“He actually did that, using the foothold!” Deidara’s expression changed slightly. The dragon was already falling down, but Sasuke’s next attack came. The giant shuriken that he had dodged earlier came back again. Losing his balance, Deidara fell from the dragon and was impaled by the giant shuriken through his wrists.

At the same time, the falling dragon crashed into the landmine-buried ground, causing a series of earth-shattering explosions. Apparently, Sasuke had been waiting for this opportunity, the opportunity to turn the tide.

However, unfortunately, a giant bird flew out from the explosion, and Deidara was standing on it. Apparently, at the critical moment, Deidara kicked away the giant shuriken.

“This brat still has some skills. So, this is the power of the Sharingan’s predictive ability?” Deidara recalled what Onoki had said and immediately understood how he had dodged the attacks that seemed to have been released after the most ingenious calculations.

“This is troublesome.” Sasuke thought that the opponent was definitely finished this time, but he didn’t expect his attacks, which were calculated through the Sharingan, to ultimately fail.

“You damn brat.” Deidara’s two hands were no longer connected in the middle with some special material, and both his arms were almost identical in length and proportion.

It can be said that Kakuzu had gone through many people’s arms before he finally found an arm that was exactly the same as Deidara’s original arms. He replaced them with the best ones, so now, apart from some scars, Deidara’s arms looked no different from those of a normal person.

“You actually injured my hand. These arms were the last gift from Kakuzu, and I will definitely make you pay with your life. But don’t worry; you wanted to kill Itachi, right? After you die, I will also send him to the underworld to accompany you, C4 Garuda!”

Deidara was angry that Sasuke had injured him and used the same gaze as Itachi to look at him, as if he was scornful of his art. He was even more furious that Sasuke had hurt the only gift Kakuzu left for him.

For the current Deidara, this pair of arms carefully selected by Kakuzu was undoubtedly more important than his pursuit and appreciation of art. In his eyes, Kakuzu, Hidan, and Sasori were more important than art. This was his transformation, or rather, his level of thinking had become higher. He was no longer troubled by the art that accompanied him from childhood due to his emptiness. He had found something more important than his art.
