In the billowing smoke and dust, the originally calm air seemed to be torn apart in an instant.
Inside the thick smoke created by the explosion of the exploding tags just now, a dark shadow suddenly emerged like a ghost.
A gray-black sharp long spike shot toward Killer Bee at a lightning fast speed that made people gasp.
Killer Bee's heart jolted. He instinctively twisted his body to the side, narrowly avoiding this sudden deadly strike.
However, something he did not expect happened.
The gray spike actually split into several branching prongs, as if it had a life of its own.
And they kept stretching toward him without stopping, like a ferocious giant net trying to wrap tightly around him.
Facing such a strange attack, Killer Bee did not dare be careless even a little.
He quickly swung the octopus tentacle covered in powerful tailed beast chakra, bringing a fierce gust of force as he smashed hard toward the iron sand tips.
With a loud bang, the extremely hard iron sand tips were instantly scattered, turning into countless tiny particles that flew in all directions.
"Iron sand? You're Sasori?"
Killer Bee's eyes widened as he stared in shock at the enemy in front of him.
At the same time, his octopus tentacle suddenly shot forward, wanting to grab the opponent in one move.
But Sasori seemed to have predicted it. His body flickered and slipped into a trap spot beside him.
After Killer Bee's strike missed, he swung his arm forcefully, stirring up a violent whirlwind that swept across the area.
In an instant, the smoke and dust were blown completely away, and the surroundings became clear.
"Heh!"
A cold sneer came from the distance.
Killer Bee looked carefully and saw Sasori standing firmly on top of the body of the Third Kazekage puppet.
Behind the Third Kazekage, a pair of huge wings formed from iron sand had taken shape.
With the help of these wings, Sasori could freely fly back and forth above the ground filled with exploding tag traps.
Sasori's hands controlled the Third Kazekage skillfully, continuously firing sharp needles made of iron sand.
These flying needles poured down on Killer Bee like a torrential rain, leaving him unable to deal with them all at once, and making him feel a little irritated.
Even so, Killer Bee was no ordinary person. As he dodged the incoming needles with agility, he kept swinging the tentacle wrapped tightly in tailed beast power.
He knocked away every flying needle that came close to him with precise accuracy.
At the same time, wind surged under his feet as he rushed toward Sasori to chase him down.
But Sasori would never let Killer Bee get what he wanted, flying again and again toward the ground full of exploding tags.
And each time, Killer Bee would inevitably suffer the impact of violent explosions.
After going through this twice in a row, the anger in Killer Bee's heart erupted like a volcano.
"You hateful guy! I'll tear you into eight pieces!"
With a furious roar, Killer Bee's throat swelled, and chakra surged wildly throughout his body as he began condensing a Tailed Beast Bomb.
Just then, Sasori gave a sudden pull to the chakra threads in his hand, making a modified "Black Ant" burst out from the disguised ground.
It dashed like lightning and trapped Killer Bee's entire body inside it.
In an instant, Killer Bee's vision went dark. He had been swallowed straight into the Black Ant's belly.
At that moment, Killer Bee suddenly felt a strong sense of danger rising in his chest.
He looked closely and saw a white clay figurine right in front of him.
Even more frightening, the figurine was releasing extremely intense chakra fluctuations.
Killer Bee's heart instantly turned cold. A sense of doom washed over him.
Without any hesitation, he made a split-second decision and activated full tailed beast transformation.
Even though Killer Bee reacted fast, the white figurine still exploded without mercy.
BOOM!
With an earth-shaking roar, an overwhelming blast of energy burst out.
A massive fireball several dozen meters high rose from the ground, and the blazing flames lit everything around it.
When the flames faded, what people saw was Killer Bee, who had already completed full tailed beast transformation.
Although the Eight Tails' body was scorched in a few places, without a doubt he was not heavily injured and was recovering rapidly.
Up in the sky, Deidara spread his arms, his face full of confidence and pride, "Oh ho! I knew it! Big Brother Sasori's puppets and my explosive art are the perfect combo! HAHAHAHAHA!"
———
At that moment, the distant Hidden Cloud forces sensed that something was wrong, and a large number of reinforcements suddenly rushed in from the rear.
"Hurry up! We have to go support Lord Killer Bee!"
A ninja shouted loudly. Next, flashes of lightning lit up one after another.
"Lightning Style, Lightning Spear!"
"Lightning Style, Lightning Light Orb!"
All kinds of powerful lightning jutsu rained toward Deidara and Sasori.
However, facing such dense attacks, Deidara and Sasori calmly lifted their altitude a little.
Those fierce jutsu immediately missed, exploding in midair and scattering into disappearing sparks of electricity.
The Hidden Cloud side became anxious. With flying ability and this much agility, how were they supposed to fight?
The ground was already covered with countless exploding tag traps. One careless step would trigger a massive explosion.
These Hidden Cloud ninjas didn't have the tough and durable body of the Eight Tails' jinchuriki to charge through such danger.
With no other choice, they could only throw jutsu from far away, trying to give some long-range support.
But such attacks could hardly hit Deidara and Sasori, who were weaving through the sky with expert flying skills.
Seeing more and more Hidden Cloud ninja appearing, Deidara not only felt no fear at all, he became even more excited.
He reached for his waist pouch, grabbed a large handful of explosive clay, and stuffed it into his mouth to chew.
His mouth moved nonstop, and after a moment, he spat the chewed clay into his hand and kneaded it forcefully.
In the blink of an eye, small but incredibly powerful little spiders formed in his palm.
"Oh ho! Look! This is the true masterpiece of my art!"
Deidara shouted, and then flung his hands forward, scattering the many little spiders like flower petals in the wind.
In an instant, it was as if a storm of spiders poured down from the sky, flooding toward the Hidden Cloud ninja below.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Deafening explosions rang out.
The Hidden Cloud forces in the rear were stopped cold by the overwhelming blast force.
They could only watch the fierce battle happening ahead, feeling anxious and helpless.
