Chapter 192: The Crazy Art Duo

"Hmph, I gave you a way out, but you didn't cherish it."

Sasori of the Red Sand didn't hesitate any longer. He looked up at Deidara, who was struggling in the sky, and muttered:

"I hate waiting for others, and I don't like being waited on either. If you keep pestering me, I'll just kill you..."

"My partner is having a hard time up there. Although I don't care much for him, it's a pity if he dies since he has a rare artist's spirit."

"Without me, he probably wouldn't survive..."

At this moment, Deidara's voice suddenly came from behind Sasori:

"What nonsense are you spouting, Brother Sasori!"

"It's you who should be worried! I thought you were getting beaten up by these two old geezers, so I came to check on you, hmm!"

"Why did you come here?" Sasori was a bit surprised.

"That up there is my clay clone. As expected of the Kazekage, he's really tough! Brother Sasori, I can't take it anymore. Step aside, I'm going to do something big! Leave these two old geezers to me, hmm!"

Without waiting for Sasori to speak, Deidara put his hands into his pockets and took out all the remaining clay.

"Deidara! I don't need you to handle my opponents! I'm almost done here, and I can take care of yours as well. Just stand aside and watch, you're the one who should be moving away!"

Sasori raised his hands again, releasing a large amount of black poison gas from both sides of his arms.

Deidara was also ready, throwing a large clay puppet into the air.

"Deidara, put down your ugly thing and let me handle it!"

"Once the bow is drawn, there's no turning back, Brother Sasori! Step aside, and don't blame me if you get hurt, hmm!"

The two artists clashed, neither willing to back down.

Their recklessness scared the Sand Village ninjas.

Black mist spread throughout the Sand Village.

Chiyo urgently warned, "This is bad, the mist is poisonous! Cover your mouths quickly, don't inhale the poison!"

Rasa commanded, "Everyone move aside! Let me handle that clay puppet! It's not simple! Its power is enough to destroy the entire Sand Village!"

With that, Rasa waved his hand, and a large amount of gold sand gathered beneath the clay puppet.

The poison gas was spreading everywhere, and he couldn't hold his breath any longer, he just wanted to deal with the bomb quickly.

"Hahaha! Old man, my art won't be buried by the same technique. This time, I'll detonate it early!"

Rasa was shocked: "No, everyone run! It's too late! This crazy guy, isn't he even going to dodge himself?"

"Ugh!" A sudden sense of numbness spread throughout his body, and Rasa knew that the poison in the gas was taking effect.

"Damn it... Before my body stops functioning, I need to at least reduce the blast radius!"

Using all his remaining strength, Rasa wrapped as much of the clay puppet as possible in gold sand.

"Art is... an explosion!"

"Click!"

Boom!

A huge mushroom cloud rose above the Sand Village...

...

Two kilometers away from the Sand Village.

A large aloe plant emerged from the desert.

Inside the aloe, Sasori and Deidara's bodies were wrapped.

"Tsk tsk... Sasori, Deidara, were you trying to kill each other?"

The aloe revealed its true form, and White Zetsu and Black Zetsu appeared before the artistic duo.

"Sasori, no matter how immortal you are, facing a clay bomb, you'd still turn to dust..."

"Deidara, you're poisoned too, right? Sigh... You two went too far..."
