Chapter 786 : That is Art!
🕑 Added 2024-10-31 19:05:22 +0000 UTC‘Magnet Release: Iron Sand Gathering Assault jutsu’
Sasori controlled the Third Kazekage's puppet and unleashed enormous amounts of iron sand, transforming them into highly dense shapes and launching them at Fujin. Fujin looked at the weapons and thought, ‘Not bad, the dense nature of these blocks means that there isn't much my Wind jutsus can do against it. Even though the Vacuum jutsus can poke a few holes, it wouldn't be much help… Oh well…’
Massive palms appeared in the Wind Domain and grabbed the iron objects, stopping them. Under normal circumstances, Fujin wouldn't have any issue sending such objects back at the enemy, but Magnet Release meant that the Third Kazekage's puppet had a greater influence on the iron objects than Fujin's Wind Domain.
Sasori looked at the Ghost Palms and analyzed, ‘So, he can also do this? No matter, I can already see a weakness in his technique.’
His fingers moved slightly. The large iron objects disintegrated into small particles once again. The sudden loss in density caused the ghost palms to tighten into fists while almost all the iron sand escaped into the Wind Domain. They began moving along the winds while inching dangerously closer to Fujin.
Fujin immediately controlled the winds to throw the smaller iron particles out of his domain. They were much easier to handle than the larger particles. However, he faced another issue. There were too many iron particles! His initial move couldn't get rid of them all. And, the Third Kazekage's puppet ignored the iron that was blown away and focused entirely on what remained behind. As a result, its control increased considerably and Fujin couldn't expel it from the Wind Domain as easily.
A frown appeared on Fujin's face as he realized, ‘I didn't think Magnet Release would pose such a challenge to my Wind Domain. Although I have thrown out most of the iron sand, he can still exert control over them. Not to mention, it's the few remaining that pose a challenge. If I make a mistake, they could even pierce through my Wind Cloak!’
Fujin knew that defense wasn't particularly a strong point of Wind Domain. After all, it was made of air, what defense could it provide? What made it such a threat was that it could redirect almost all jutsus and living beings made of Flesh and Blood wouldn't dare to step into the domain. However, against mere iron particles, that threat was useless. Redirecting it wasn't very useful either as the Third Kazekage's puppet could redirect it once more.
As several iron particles moved at high speeds through his domain, Fujin suddenly flickered and began floating around 25 meters above the ground. The sudden move wasn't to dodge any iron particles controlled by the Third Kazekage's puppet. Instead, it was to dodge the sneak attack coming from underground by Sasori's other puppets.
Sasori observed, ‘So, he discovered the sneak attack. No matter, I doubt his mobility in the air is as good as his mobility on the ground. The chakra he needs to maintain his technique should be much higher than what I need to control the iron sand. Now, let me see how long he can endure the pressure.’
The poisonous needles launched by the puppets stopped moving in the Wind Domain due to the strong winds. However, the Third Kazekage's puppet took control of them as well and attacked Fujin with it while the other puppets escaped underground once again. Sasori was actively limiting Fujin's movements while forcing him to pay attention to several threats at the same time.
Fujin looked at the needles while thinking, ‘Hmm, as fun as this is, it's time to stop being on the defensive. My clone won't be able to stall Deidara forever…’
The winds in the Wind Domain became chaotic once again and knocked all of the iron controlled by the Third Kazekage's puppet off course. At the same time, Fujin directed his Wind Domain towards the ground.
While digging into the ground would waste a lot of chakra and Fujin would normally use Vacuum Bullets to create underground routes for his winds, he had an even better option. Small holes had been opened up in the ground by the poisonous needles that were shot from underground. They connected to the larger spaces that were created by the puppets themselves. Winds rapidly moved into them and caught up with the puppets. Before Sasori could realize it, his chakra threads that controlled those puppets were sliced by the wind blades that formed underground!
Sasori suddenly realized, ‘Incredible, he used the paths created by the needles and puppets to extend his technique underground. Hmm, wait… That means… SHIT!’
Sasori immediately flickered, taking the Third Kazekage's puppet with him as well. Moments later, winds rushed out of the very path the puppets had taken underground! Even though Sasori had covered the ground to not alert Fujin, it was ripped open by wind blades. Its location wasn't too far from Sasori and the Third Kazekage's previous position. Had Sasori not moved, the chakra threads he used to control the Third Kazekage's puppet would have been severed!
Fujin sighed and thought, ‘A pity. I almost had it!’
Sasori cursed internally, ‘I didn't think he could use the underground attacks as a way to counterattack… It makes this a much more risky option than I initially thought. I'll need to cover up underground tracks after I make my move. However, that will mean I'll have to sacrifice my puppets to make just a single attack… Huh?’
The Wind Domain suddenly began heating up. Sasori was still moving away from the winds that were extending towards him when he turned his gaze back to Fujin. At the center of the Wind Domain, several flaming orbs were floating around Fujin and even more were forming as Fire merged into the Winds of the Wind Domain.
Sasori wondered in surprise, ‘Is that???’
Fujin thought, ‘Oh well, I haven't had time to practice this much and this still can't be considered a Kekkei Genkai, but the damage wouldn't be any lesser.’
The flaming orbs began fusing into one large orb in Fujin's hands. Once every one of them was absorbed, strong Winds blasted behind Fujin. He left the Wind Domain and appeared right above Sasori and the Third Kazekage's puppet!
‘Scorch Release: Evaporation Blast jutsu’
——
“STOP FUCKING TALKING! I'LL BLOW YOUR DAMN MOUTH!” A frustrated Deidara shouted in rage! While Sasori and Fujin engaged in an intense battle, Deidara was thoroughly annoyed by the clone's bullshit. Even experienced and scheming ninjas were left annoyed by Fujin's words. Poor Deidara simply didn't stand a chance.
Worse, he couldn't even do anything as none of his explosive tools reached the Wind Clone. If looks could kill… Well, even if they could kill, Fujin wouldn't mind since Deidara was looking murderously at his Wind Clone. Fujin wouldn't even receive any memories of their conversation.
To his disbelief, a pained look appeared on the Wind Clone's face. It was as if he received the greatest betrayal in history! The pain was obvious in his voice as he muttered, “Deidara… How could you say that? Do you… Do you know how much risk I had to take to deliver this news to you? And you react like this? I'm hurt…”
For a moment, even Deidara felt the Wind Clone's ‘sincerity’. He wondered, ‘Could it be real? But… Why would I care? What does that have to do with me?’
Fujin's Wind Clone continued, “The news is absolutely true. When you left, Kurotsuchi declared she would stay single for the rest of her life. Everyone in Iwagakure is aware of this declaration. That is why the Third Tsuchikage was so angry. If I hadn't stopped him, he would have come out himself to hunt you down! I can't even imagine what magic you performed to snatch the granddaughter of that old man.”
Deidara annoyingly cursed, “What magic could I even perform? I only met her a handful of times!”
The clone's eyes widened as surprise appeared on his face. He muttered, “Damn! How did you do that in just a handful of meetings? I heard every boy in Iwagakure is mad. Most are training their hearts out to hunt you down and gain Kurotsuchi's favor.”
Once again, Deidara was left completely speechless. He wanted to curse, but couldn't even decide how to do so considering that Fujin was praising him. Before he opened his mouth, Fujin's clone continued, “That said, I'm surprised that this is the first time you heard. From what I heard, the news is spreading rapidly throughout the Land of Earth. Does Akatsuki keep you on a leash or something?”
While Deidara didn't care about the news, some doubts about the Akatsuki appeared in his mind. After all, he should have heard about it. He wondered, ‘Could it be that Akatsuki is keeping me in the dark to prevent me from returning to the village? Even though I don't want to return, manipulating me in this way is...’
He decided to think about it later and replied, “I don't care about that shitty village or Kurotsuchi.”
His hands chewed more clay as he continued, “I just want to perfect my art! Art is…”
Fujin's clone interrupted him as he said with disgust, “You call those lousy explosions art?”
Once again, Deidara was annoyed. However, before he could retort, Fujin's clone pointed in a direction and said, “Look there, that is art!”

Deidara is about to look at Fujin as a senior brother in the art of explosions 🤣

Could do it, but would be less dense and hence less effective. Also, the Wind Domain is already too strong for normal attacks and too weak for Tailed Beast level attacks. So, kinda difficult to find an instance where Fujin would require such a jutsu

Done writing. Editing rn. So around 30 mins

Thnx for the chapter. Happy Diwali Hex and to everyone else!

In the future, maybe Fujin can transform his wind domain into a big Rasenshuriken.

This! I'm not sure Hex though about it. Or maybe he did, and Fujin copying revolving heaven may not be taken well or lighty by the hyuga.
TrustZee
There is something interesting about this idea.

if fujins domain has him releasing charka inside, and he can basically control almost everything inside especially wind, wouldn't he have somehow figured out to incorporate the hyugas rotation in the domain to a degree? the hyugas release chakra and then just spin, Fujin already has the chakra out, all he needs is wind and chakra control to cause a rotation within his domain. Having the outer core manipulate wind and chakra at high-speed at the moment of impact would be a great defense. Plus it's basically a giant rasengan and he also knows the principles behind that technique too. don't see why Fujins domain can't be an absolute defense too.

‘Scorch Release: Evaporation Blast jutsu’ Finally!! He did it!!
TrustZee
Wiki says that Kurotsuchi was 18 in Shipuden. Now she is 14-15. Fujin, according to the author, will soon be 17.

Peak 😂 only someone as young as deidara could fall for this bullshit but that’s what makes it so funny
Milos
Bro Wind clone Fujin got the bullshit genes on a whole New level
Rei Lagea
FUJIN NUKE NO JUTSU 🔥🔥🔥

Nice..so in order to create an opportunity for his mobility issue he uses his already created winds and add fire to it forming into a mini sun and smashing it into the puppet..interesting

That brainwashing of Fujin, poor Deidara if he doesn't abandon Akatsuki now I don't know what else will do.
