Naruto: The Wind Calamity

Chapter 796: Betrayal!



"Now, Deidara!" Fujin's laughter roared as he called his new 'friend' to make a move!

Obito, whose hand was moving towards Deidara, faltered! His eye observed Deidara's hands which were still eating clay. While Obito didn't consider anyone present there a threat, he didn't dare underestimate anyone.

Deidara may be young, but his reputation for blowing things up was well known. Additionally, Obito was also informed that he had a jutsu to blow his entire body up! If Deidara were to suddenly explode while he transferred the two to his Kamui Dimension, even Obito would suffer a great loss. Depending on how subtle Deidara could be, there was even a chance that Obito could die!

With Fujin and Deidara acting weirdly, Obito grew increasingly suspicious. Even Sasori looked at his young partner with suspicion. He kept the iron sand ready to block any explosives Deidara might throw at them. With Fujin's shout, Sasori mentally prepared himself for a strong explosion.

While such thoughts ran through the minds of Sasori and Obito, Deidara was thoroughly confused. He wondered, 'Now what? What am I supposed to do? And, why does this bastard think I'll act at his will? Eh? Fuck! Not this again!'

Deidara ignored Fujin's call and looked at Obito, who had called him earlier. However, all he saw was red. The sight immediately brought memories of his humiliating loss against Itachi. Just like that day, Deidara was put under a Genjutsu!

Obito decided, 'Whatever it is, I'll investigate later. Time to leav… What the…???'

A Wind Pillar hit Deidara's back, surprising Obito and Sasori. However, it wasn't an ordinary Wind Pillar. It was an inferior version of Ryu's Wind Breath. The Wind Pillar consisted of countless small wind blades.

Due to being under Obito's Genjutsu, Deidara couldn't react to the danger behind him. The pillar passed through Deidara's body as if it were nothing but thin air, leaving a massive hole in his abdomen and chest!

Deidara, one of the prominent members of the Akatsuki, who would have defeated and captured the Fifth Kazekage and nearly killed Sasuke, a reincarnation of Indra, fell in a nameless field in the Land of Rice!

Ironically, the main reason for his death was none other than Uchiha Obito, who cast a Genjutsu on him in his final moments! Though Akatsuki had its fair share of betrayals, be it Kakuzu backstabbing his partners or Orochimaru attacking Itachi, this would be the first instance where a founding member betrayed an Akatsuki member!

Obito and Sasori immediately retreated as the Wind Pillar continued towards them. Both had the same thought, 'Did we misjudge Deidara or did Fujin kill him to stop us from getting information?'

With Deidara dead, it wasn't something they could figure out easily. Both looked at Fujin in a new light. If it was the second case, the two admired Fujin's decisiveness in eliminating a rank S ally. If it was the former, they had to admire and be wary of Fujin's scheming mind. Through just a few words and actions, Fujin successfully planted the doubts of Deidara's loyalty in their minds.

Of course, what was also impressive was the speed at which Fujin attacked. Neither of them noticed the attack until it was too late for Deidara.

Some distance away, both the Zetsu were shocked as well. White Zetsu muttered, "To think that Fujin could kill Deidara in his presence. We have underestimated him. His threat is extremely high. This is the second time an Akatsuki member fell to him. Only Kakuzu has killed more."

Black Zetsu agreed, "More than his techniques, it's his words that are dangerous. Kisame underplayed their significance."

Fujin sensed Deidara's falling body and thought, 'The future has already changed too much. With Hiruzen surviving Orochimaru's attack, the former Kages being sealed inside the God of Death, Kakashi gaining strength rapidly and every hidden village being far more cautious, there is no way the events involving Akatsuki would stay the same. At the very least, Yugito, Roshi and Bee won't be captured that easily.

Since that is the case, it's time to eliminate these troublesome people. The fewer the variables, the more accurately I'll be able to calculate and make plans. With Kabuto dead, one of the two major forces is already gone. If Sasuke's path changes and he doesn't kill Orochimaru, I'll hunt him down to ensure he doesn't replace Kabuto.

That just leaves Akatsuki and the White Zetsu army. Be it through my hands or others, I have to weaken both forces, preferably eliminate both. Of course, the best-case scenario would be if I can kill Obito here! The only question is, can I?'

Even though his eyes were sealed, Fujin focused on the spatial disturbances and the chakra signatures of the remaining Akatsuki members.

With no attack nearby following Deidara's death and the Wind Domain some distance away, Obito decided, 'I'll transfer Sasori first.'

He activated his ability and began transferring Sasori into the Kamui dimension. He wasn't even halfway done when he suddenly felt something and looked at the place where the Wind Pillar that killed Deidara had landed. To his shock, a Wind Blade appeared from the residue chakra in that place and flew straight at him!

Due to the short distance, Obito didn't have much time. He looked at the wind blade and thought, 'So, it isn't just from that domain but he can also use his residual chakra to create new jutsus? However, there are limitations. This attack is far weaker and slower than the jutsu that killed Deidara. Without the support from that technique, he can only use this trick to launch a sneak attack.'

The blade was inches away from his throat when he completed transferring Sasori and became intangible.

A chuckle was heard as Fujin said, "Hehe, I could sense your fear. My analysis was perfect. Now then, will you risk escaping too or do you want to avenge the death of your comrade? Then again, his death was your fault, hahaha!"

Having been fooled once, Obito ignored Fujin's words just like Orochimaru did previously. In a deep voice, Obito said, "To be able to use words as weapons at such an age... I shall remember you, Suzuki Fujin."

Obito understood that Fujin's laughter, amusement and excitement were all fake. Not a single one represented his true emotions. They were mere acts to gain an advantage in the battle, be it by agitating his enemies or buying time for his Wind Domain to spread throughout the area.

While Obito harbored some thoughts of eliminating Fujin, the sneak attack with the Wind Blade made him realize how difficult it'd be to fight Fujin inside the Wind Domain. While he wasn't afraid, he didn't see much reason to overexpose himself at this time.

His right eye activated once again as he started entering the Kamui dimension himself. Sensing what was happening, Fujin's cheeks puffed as he prepared a Vacuum Bullet.

Obito said, "Unfortunately, you no longer have any residue chakra around me. Your Wind Domain will require a few seconds to reach this area as well. None of your jutsus can reach me in time…"

Obito's eye suddenly widened. The Vacuum Bullet Fujin fired, even though it looked like an ordinary Vacuum Bullet, flew at over ten times the speed of Fujin's previous Vacuum Bullets! As the Vacuum Bullet reached right in front of his right eye before he could completely transfer himself to the Kamui dimension, a question rose in Obito's mind, 'Why is this Vacuum Bullet so much faster?'

At the same time, Fujin thought, 'Even though it looks just like a normal Vacuum Bullet, its core has been greatly modified by me. Under normal conditions, its speed is twice that of my normal Vacuum Bullets.

However, that's where the fun part comes in. A normal Vacuum jutsu merely consists of winds flowing through a Vacuum core. However, the way I created the core leaves me space to add another component to the jutsu. Though it is very small, it is extremely significant. This component is fire! The fire provides the explosive speed initially, quite similar to the boosters on missiles or rockets. The Winds then sustain this explosive speed for a couple of seconds.

This was a lucky inspiration I had while I was working on Scorch Release. Unfortunately, the implementation is quite difficult. I completed it just a couple of days ago while others were cleaning up the bases. Modifying the remaining Vacuum cores will take months even with Shadow Clones.

In addition, it is riskier than the normal Wind Vacuum Technique due to the fire's presence. I have to pay careful attention to the jutsu to ensure that it won't harm me. So, it's unlikely that I can spam this technique. Regardless, it is still an excellent technique to catch troublesome enemies off guard. Now then, is your Kamui still faster than my attack, Obito?'

Fujin received his answer immediately. Even though Obito's body disappeared and entered the Kamui dimension, it wasn't before a hole was left in his head, starting from his right eye and opening up at the back of his head!
