"Then you'd better send that guy Uchiha Itachi. I still have a score to settle with him!"
He said loudly.
"I see, so that's your reason for joining the Akatsuki?"
Everyone who joined the Akatsuki had their own reasons.
But Obito didn't care.
As long as these people could help him with his work, he didn't care what their purposes were.
In fact, he also knew that the Akatsuki's members didn't have much loyalty.
They gathered together completely because of the decisive power displayed by Nagato, and the prospects painted by a lie.
Using Tailed Beasts to start wars, and then using wars to make a lot of money.
This obvious lie still attracted some strong individuals to join.
And the reason they joined was also very simple.
Because Nagato was strong enough.
The strong are always attracted to each other.
Every Akatsuki's member, if placed outside, was a top-tier Shinobi capable of easily annihilating a small country.
These people gathered together, forming a powerful force.
And as long as this force could be used by him, Obito didn't care if it had other ideas.
As long as it was useful.
For now, they were still very useful.
Although they always dropped the ball when facing Takumi,
They were still a power that ordinary people couldn't hope to match, saving him a lot of trouble.
However, this organization seemed to be nearing its end.
Obito had a feeling that perhaps by the time he gathered all the Tailed Beasts, it might be time for the Akatsuki to disband.
Originally, the Akatsuki had nine members. First, they lost Sasori.
Now, Deidara had also betrayed them.
Who would be next?
A sense of urgency arose in Obito's heart.
Before the Akatsuki fell apart, he had to squeeze every last bit of use out of them.
He came before the controlled Three-Tails and reached out to touch it.
This time, no one came to stop him.
Then, the Three-Tails was absorbed by Obito into his Kamui Dimension.
"What was that? Space-Time Ninjutsu?"
Deidara watched Obito in shock.
Space-Time Ninjutsu was not an ordinary Ninjutsu.
Especially the bizarre ability Obito had just displayed; he had never even heard of it.
"Run, Deidara, before we meet again."
After retrieving the Three-Tails, Obito looked at Deidara and left his final words.
"The next time we meet will be your day of death."
Obito's figure was also sucked into the Kamui Dimension.
"Still failed, huh?"
Takumi frowned slightly, somehow having already arrived beside Deidara.
Just one small mistake, and Obito seized the opportunity to take the Three-Tails away. He really hadn't expected this.
It was also his own carelessness.
To stabilize Yukimaru's injuries, even if he sped up, it still took him a minute.
And one minute was enough time for Obito to set a trap.
And he wasn't vigilant enough; this was his biggest mistake.
If he had been cautious enough, he should have had a good chance of stopping Obito.
Unfortunately, it was too late to say anything now.
"Se-Senpai?!"
Deidara was startled and quickly jumped to the side, then immediately rushed back over. "Takumi-senpai! Please take me in!"
"Take you in?"
Takumi looked Deidara up and down, his gaze making Deidara's heart race, afraid Takumi might say no.
After pondering for a moment, long enough to see sweat gradually forming on Deidara's face, he finally revealed a smile and said, "Alright."
"Huh?"
Deidara was stunned; Takumi's sudden change of expression caught him off guard.
It took him a full two seconds to realize that Takumi had agreed.
Instantly, excitement made him jump for joy.
He grabbed Takumi's hand, his face flushed with excitement. "From today on, I'm Takumi-senpai's little brother! Let's study great art together!"
"Of course."
Takumi calmly withdrew his hand, a full smile on his face. "But you'd better disguise yourself, at least so that people from the Land of Earth don't see you."
"Otherwise, there could be some diplomatic problems."
This wasn't just idle worry on Takumi's part.
Ohnoki of the Land of Earth was a very troublesome old man, and also very strong.
His Dust Release meant certain death for anyone hit; even Takumi wouldn't dare to claim he could withstand it head-on.
After all, it directly annihilated everything within its attack range; this attack power was truly a bit too strong.
"Don't worry, I have some talent for disguise."
Deidara patted his chest and said.
"Mm, then you go back to Konoha and wait for me. I still have some things to handle here."
Takumi looked around. With the Three-Tails gone, the surrounding mist was also dissipating quickly, and the sensory blocking ability had disappeared.
"When I get back, we'll study the art of explosion together."
Seeing that Deidara seemed reluctant, he quickly added.
Sure enough, upon hearing the word "explosion", Deidara immediately nodded eagerly. "It's a deal then! I'll go wait for you at Sasori-danna's hair salon first."
With that, he rushed off without stopping.
"Don't forget to disguise yourself!"
Watching his rapidly disappearing figure, Takumi could only shout helplessly.
"This matter is temporarily settled. Now it's time to deal with the other matter."
Takumi's figure flickered and disappeared from the spot.
He reappeared where Yukimaru had been protected.
But Guren hadn't arrived yet.
He first removed the simplified Four Violet Flames Formation and then began detailed treatment.
This was only a temporary measure; to completely heal Yukimaru's injuries, he still needed the corpse Guren brought back.
However, before the complete treatment, he could do some processing first.
For example, cleaning up some unnecessary parts.
He was already skilled at this and quickly removed the excess parts from Yukimaru's body.
Looking at his handiwork, Takumi couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.
This suited Yukimaru's delicate face much better.
Suddenly, his Observation Haki showed him Guren's arrival.
Looking up, sure enough, Guren was rushing over quickly.
In her hand, she carried a corpse.
Judging by the clothes, it should be a villager or something. Who knows which unlucky person it was.
But Takumi didn't care.
The killing was done by Guren; it had nothing to do with him.
And in the Shinobi World, the lives of civilians were like weeds.
When war came, these civilians had no means of self-protection against the power of Shinobi.
"I got the corpse."
Guren gently placed the corpse beside Yukimaru.
Takumi looked; it was a woman.
Now he was even more satisfied.
This perfectly allowed him to further perfect the situation inside Yukimaru's body.
