<strong>Chapter 216: Making Some Room</strong>
"C4!" Deidara closed his mouth shut before his body began to inte like a balloon.
Kakashi was taken aback by the sudden reaction. He did not know what Deidara was trying to aplish, but from what he had seen so far, he considered it wise to get some distance in between them.
Naruto had the same thought and decided not to approach him immediately.
Momentster, the inted body of Deidara, which had grown over a dozen times its regr size, detonated…
The resulting explosion was more than just potent.
The cloud of smoke made it impossible to see what was going on, and Naruto detected that something was left behind in the air.
" Kakashi, be careful. There is s-"
" I know." Kakashi was using his Sharingan and had also realized that Deidara''stest jutsu was more than a simple bomb.
Naruto brought his hands together and formed a powerful current of wind that pushed away the smoke and the microscopic bombs that the C4 jutsu had left behind after its initial explosion.
" He is escaping…" It was then that Kakashi caught a glimpse of a figure in the sky.
Naruto saw it too and could still detect the presence of Deidara. He had moved extremely fast and was now close to his Divine Sense range limit.
" Not going to follow him?" Kakashi was surprised to see that Naruto didn''t attempt to chase him.
This one showed him the broken kunai. "Can''t use that jutsu anymore and I cannot fly that fast either." Naruto shrugged. " Leave him. He''s not important anyway." If Deidara tried to get in his way again, it would be thest. But he realized that someone was missing and looked around the ce in an attempt to find him. " By the way…what happened to Kabuto?." He could not see his corpse anywhere.
Even if Orochimaru was dead, people brought back with that forbidden jutsu would not disappear after the caster died. So if they didn''t kill Kabuto themselves, that would mean he is still around and no longer under Orochimaru''s control.
"''He escaped…" Kakashi had to admit with shame. " When the three tails emerged, we became too distracted with it, and Kabuto did not waste the opportunity to get away from us…"
"Is that so..." This made Naruto frown deeply. He may not have cared about Deidara, but he considered Kabuto much more dangerous despite hisck of power. The man probably had ess to a lot of Orochimaru research and jutsus.
If left to his own devices, who knows what he could do?...
'' A worry for the future…'' Naruto thought, as there was nothing he could do about that now.
<><><><><><><>
As the two of them talked, The real Deidara was using his fastest flying creation to get as far away as he could.
The only thought in his mind now was to survive. The idea of capturing Naruto or the Three Tails hadpletely disappeared.
And it now sounded ridiculous in his head. They had underestimated their enemies to a deadly degree. Especially the Jinchuuriki of the Kyubi…or maybe it''s not the Kyuubi anymore. He wasn''t sure of that.
Their Leader was certainly going to find him and question him about what happened. And he still had no idea how was he going to exin it.
" Damn it all…" He kinda wished now that he could just go away and leave the Elemental Nations behind.
"What was that monster?..." Deidara muttered, recalling thest moments of Sasori and how easily Naruto had killed his partner. And on top of that, he had done so while using the power of the Two-Tailed Beast...something that should be impossible for someone who was already a Jinchuriki of a different Bijuu.
"Will Pain even believe me?..." Deidara wondered.

The screams from Yamato brought Kakashi and Naruto back from their thoughts.
" Right…we still need to deal with that one," Kakashi said.
Yamato had been able to keep the Demon Beast near the center of theke and had created some thick branches to form a cage that could contain it.
But the beast was continuously trashing around and using the water of theke to attack its container.
Yamato felt like he was near exhaustion, as he had to keep renewing the branches that formed the cage.
" Need help here!" He finally yelled. "Won''t be able to hold for much longer!"
" What is the n here?."Kakashi turned to Naruto. " We are not equipped to capture the Bijuu. I say we send a request for reinforcements. Perhaps Jiraiya has already returned to the vige." Kakashi suggested this despite being well aware of how risky was to remain here to ward the Bijuu.
That one member of Akatsuki that fled, will definitely inform the other members of the group. Soon enough, this ind will be surrounded by them.
Naruto reabsorbed the Charka cloak, ending the transformation. " Puff…"
Kakashi took this gesture as a sign of exhaustion. It wasn''t surprising after all he did. Not only did Naruto fight against Orochimaru, but also an S rank ninja immediately afterward. Even with his ridiculous stamina, it was already impressive he was still standing." You must be tired. The more reason to take a step back and as-"
All of a sudden, there was a loudmotion and the ground shook violently.
The Three Tais had broken free from its cage and Yamato was forced to retreat.
Hended next to Kakashi and was having trouble breathing. He had taken two soldier pills already and was near the point of being chakra-depleted.
"I''m sorry…I couldn''t hold it any longer…"
Kakashi ced a hand on his shoulder. " You did great. Now is the time to rest.
He nced at Naruto, who had his eyes closed.
'' What is he doing at a time like this?.'' Kakashi wondered.
" Is not safe to remain here." The Bijuu was ring at them already and it looked more than angry at this point...the chakra beast was enraged.
Kakashi was about to say something else to Naruto, when his eyes snapped open, and his aura became a lot more oppressive, to the point that it almost made him lose his bnce.
Naruto had just absorbed the Two Tail beast and assimted its chakra into his Core.@@novelbin@@
This time it had been much easier,pared to the Kyubi. Not only was there a lesser amount of chakra, but the Two Tail was nowhere near as violent and confrontational as the fox had been.
But regardless of that, Naruto now had room for more.
" It is time to eat a turtle."
