Far away.

After Woody was dealt with, the atmosphere changed again.

Han's face darkened; he felt uncertain.

If he was still thinking of using one enemy to devour another, or using someone else to kill him, then now the wolf has been swallowed whole by the tiger, leaving only him as the victim.

"Why are you all looking at me? I've already said before that I won't help you capture Jinchuriki, nor will I stop you from doing it yourselves."

"What do you think, little turtle?"

"Humph~"

Isobu gave a haughty snort and went back to sleeping on his shoulder.

Tailed beasts don't have much affection for each other, let alone when the other party is a Jinchūriki. The Three-Tails doesn't care about the life or death of the Jinchūriki in front of it.

Deidara and Sasori immediately started fighting Han again.

Han originally thought he was doomed, but he never expected things to turn out this way, so he naturally started to fight desperately.

Regardless of whether it's true or not, he's going to take the gamble.

Shinji, on the other hand, led his men a little further away to watch the spectacle.

It must be said that Han's powerful physical skills combined with his unique steam always produce a surprising and impressive effect.

If his red armor hadn't been damaged so badly, it would have been much more difficult for Deidara and Sasori to take down Han.

In just a short while, all the puppets controlled by Scorpion were smashed to pieces.

However, under the relentless bombardment of the artistic duo, Han eventually collapsed.

The poisoned steel needle pierced Han's body through the broken parts of his armor, and the more violently he moved, the faster the poison spread.

When Han was about to transform into his tailed beast form for a final, desperate fight, Deidara unleashed a barrage of clay bombs that left him completely disoriented.

The last breath I managed to muster was released.

The Jinchuriki was poisoned and fainted, and the Tailed Beast inside him was helpless; this didn't seem like an illusion.

Moreover, Han is not a perfect Jinchūriki. If the Five-Tails wants to take over his body, the first hurdle he must overcome is that strong seal.

Last time it was a life-or-death crisis, but this time there's no such opportunity.

However, Deidara and Sasori also suffered considerable losses. Not to mention the puppets Sasori destroyed, which were priceless.

The unlucky Deidara was also accidentally kicked by Han, and his left arm bones broke into several pieces, hanging there.

As expected, those skilled in physical combat are the best at overcoming all fancy tricks!

The reason Han lost was because his physical skills were not strong enough. Relying solely on the steam generated by Boil Release to enhance his strength and speed has its limits.

Compared to Kai, he's nowhere near as good.

When Shinji returned, Sasori immediately became alert, and the Third Kazekage puppet stood in front of him.

He strongly suspected that Shinji wanted to steal their spoils and make them work for free.

But only Nagato would do something like that. Shinji cherishes his employees so much, right?

What do you want to do?

"No need to be so nervous. If I wanted to snatch it, I would have done it already. I wouldn't have waited until now."

Shinji walked straight to Deidara's side and said, "Let me see your hand."

If it were anyone else, Deidara would probably have thrown a clay bomb at them long ago, but when it came to Shinji, he always felt a little embarrassed.

But he couldn't really leave the Akatsuki organization and join the Jashin Cult.

So I'm really conflicted and upset.

Deidara wasn't afraid that Shinji would harm him, so he simply turned his body to the side and adjusted the direction of his left arm.

"You, with no salary and even losing money every month, why are you working so hard!"

Who said no.

It's all because I was too young back then and insisted on proving myself.

Deidara sighed.

Shinji extended a hand towards Deidara's left arm and began to cast the Reversal Technique - Healing.

The attribute energy after the curse power was reversed quickly healed Deidara's injuries, even restoring his broken bones to their original state.

"Alright, move around a bit to see if the bones are set properly."

Deidara was taken aback, then swung his windmill a few times and found that nothing had happened.

"Is this medical ninjutsu?"

"Pretty much, they mean the same thing."

Shinji was too lazy to explain. Luckily, there was an evil god in front of him to shield him, allowing him to shift all the blame for things that couldn't be explained.

He didn't care whether others believed him or not.

Thanks.

Deidara, quite unusually, said thank you.

Shinji pretended to be angry, "What's there to thank me for? Look at you, you still won't call me 'big brother'."

Deidara glanced at Sasori subconsciously, and seeing that he didn't react, he awkwardly stammered, "Brother Akagi..."

"That's too distant. Call him Brother Shinji."

"Uh, Shin... Shinji-nii-san."

"Haha, not bad. I won't force you. When you can't make it in that lousy organization anymore, come and join me. I'll arrange a protector for you. Oh, by the way, if you have any friends you get along with, or any companions you think are good, you can bring them along."

Shinji patted Deidara on the shoulder with delight, openly poaching members from the Akatsuki organization right in front of Tobi.

Ah Fei's face behind the mask had turned black, but there was nothing he could do to stop it, so he could only keep quiet and hold it in.

Since Shinji had said so, Deidara had no choice but to nod. In his heart, however, he was thinking that if Akatsuki's plan failed, he would bring Sasori with him and switch sides.

Anyway, the name "Cult of Evil Gods" doesn't sound like a good thing, which suits him perfectly.

Then I can go bomb the five great nations with Shinji, wouldn't that be amazing!

[Chapter 419 Black Soil]

Upon receiving the message, Heitu, who was leading a team on a mission outside, immediately rushed to the location mentioned in the intelligence.

But by the time she arrived, the battle was already over, leaving only a scene of devastation and a distant mountain that had been pierced by bullets.

"Search! Don't overlook any clues!"

Hei Tu immediately issued orders, and his entourage began a thorough search of the scene.

Before long, all the information and intelligence had been gathered and sent to her.

Looking at the multiple pieces of red armor scattered on the ground, Black Earth's guess before coming here was confirmed.

It turns out there was something wrong with the Jinchūriki!

Furthermore, based on the clues at the scene, there were probably around 7 to 8 people there at the time.

One of the footprints was enormous, and it was suspected that it was not human, but rather some kind of creature about 5 meters tall.

There must have been a puppeteer at the time, as numerous puppet fragments were scattered nearby...

However, the analysis ended there because the scene was too badly damaged.

Whether it's the smooth, cylindrical tunnel over a thousand meters long on the ground or the mountain that was pierced through in the distance, both are enough to illustrate just how dangerous the previous battle was.

That was definitely not an effect caused by the Tailed Beast Ball!

Kurotsuchi had witnessed the power of the Tailed Beast Ball; it was more like a giant bomb, leaving no such smooth cutting marks.

"Wuya, take these fragments back to the village immediately and await Lord Tsuchikage's next orders. The rest of you, follow me!"

"Yes!"

Although the scene was severely damaged, one group of people did not clean up any traces when they left, which gave them the opportunity to track them down.

"Everyone stay alert. We're not sure yet about the identity of the people we're tracking. But they're more likely to be the enemy."

"And you all saw what happened just now, right? The enemy is very likely to be very powerful, so be careful."

"Remember, our mission is pursuit. We'll chase first, then attack. Go after them and assess the situation. If there's an opportunity, make your move; otherwise, don't force it. The village will send reinforcements soon!"

Kurotsuchi has a very strong leadership style, not only because she has a grandfather who is the Tsuchikage, but also because of her own personality.

He is decisive and efficient, and does things without any hesitation or delay.

More importantly, she knows exactly what she wants and what she is doing.

It's rare to find someone so clear-headed.

The other Iwagakure ninjas respected her greatly and immediately scattered, not forgetting to conceal themselves as much as possible even during the pursuit.

As time passed, Heitu suddenly narrowed his eyes and gestured for him to stop.

The Iwagakure ninjas were well-trained; they quickly hid behind the trees, awaiting further orders.

Standing atop a tree, Heitu gazed ahead and could vaguely make out a group of people walking forward.

She immediately pulled a golden monocular telescope from her ninja tool bag, and now she could see much more clearly.

“1、2、3、4、5、6...”

"Six people, four men and two women, including a black-haired boy and a blonde girl... In addition, there is a fox and a turtle, possibly ninja beasts..."

Kurotsuchi quickly analyzed the 'enemy's' team composition and soon frowned.

Because she didn't see Han among these people.

Moreover, the personnel configuration was also strange; they seemed more like tourists, walking at a leisurely pace.

But all the clues pointed to them.

Heitu took a deep breath, so either she misjudged the situation, or she made a blunder and was misled by the enemy.
