Deidara Actually Has Four Mouths!?
[Deidara: "That Chidori you used on yourself… turned all the bombs inside your body into duds!"]
[Sasuke: "Yeah. And thanks to that, my body is full of holes now. To be precise—
that's the price of using Chidori."]
[Deidara, stunned: "You figured out the weakness of my jutsu… in such a short time? When did you notice?"]
In the footage, Sasuke began explaining in his usual smug tone.
Konoha, Chūnin Exam Hall.
"Ahhhh!! SO COOL!! Sasuke, you're way too cool!!"
Both Sakura and Ino were sparkling with heart-eyes, crowding around Sasuke.
Sasuke's face remained stone-cold, even showing faint irritation.
"Naruto beamed proudly:
SASUKE! Amazing! From the very beginning you were analyzing Deidara's jutsu!
Hakkē yarō! That's so like you! Truly my rival!"
"Naruto! Since when are YOU worthy of being my rival?"
Sasuke snapped.
But internally…
As expected of Naruto. He understands me.
…Wait.
Something felt off.
Why was the one who understood him… that idiot Naruto?
Root Base.
"He cannot be allowed to live! Sasuke ABSOLUTELY must not remain alive!"
"Sasuke, just wait. I'll master the power of the Sharingan soon…"
Danzō closed his eyes and continued meditating.
Pure Land.
[Uchiha Fugaku: It's finally over, right? Our Sasuke won!]
[Uchiha Mikoto: Yes! Finally I can relax…]
...
The footage continued.
[Sasuke stopped bragging and began walking toward Deidara.]
[Deidara tried to stand and flee, but collapsed immediately—he couldn't even get up.]
[Sasuke: "Where is Itachi!?"]
["Ah!"]
[Deidara forced himself to throw clay bombs—Sasuke neutralized them with lightning.]
[But—]
[The strain made Sasuke collapse to the ground as well.]
[Deidara: "I'm going to win… I haven't triggered my clay yet.
As soon as you flinch—
you'll die!"]
[Sasuke remained perfectly calm.]
[Deidara: "Hmph—hahaha!!"]
Suddenly—
[His expression twisted into pure rage.]
["You're JUST like Itachi—always pretending to act cool!!"]
["Those eyes of yours are an eyesore!"]
["Always looking calm—like you're dismissing my art!"]
["Unforgivable!!"]
["You look at my art—and show not an ounce of awe!"]
["Eyes that ignore my art… must NOT be allowed to exist!!"]
The more Deidara screamed, the more distorted his face became.
[Sasuke: "That kind of thing isn't even worth looking at. Tell me where Itachi is."]
[Deidara completely snapped.]
["You're not even using your Sharingan now?! You're REALLY looking down on me!!"]
[Deidara tore off his shirt—revealing his FOURTH mouth on his chest.]
[Then he began FEEDING that mouth clay.]
...
Rain Country, Akatsuki Base.
"My FOURTH mouth… got exposed too?!"
"And judging from the footage—
I was preparing to SELF-DESTRUCT?! Mm!?"
Deidara was dumbfounded.
"NOOO! Deidara-senpai don't self-destruct!!"
Tobi threw his arms around him.
"You idiot—let me go! Mm!!"
To Deidara's shock—Tobi somehow had enough strength that he couldn't break free.
"I won't let Deidara-senpai self-destruct!"
"Baka! It's the me in the footage who's going to explode!! Mm!!"
"Oh."
Tobi finally let go.
All the members of Akatsuki stared at Deidara.
Hidan: "Deidara… you've got a mouth on your chest too? That's FOUR mouths??"
Kakuzu: "Just how many mouths do you have?"
Nagato fell into deep thought.
If future Deidara was pushed to self-destruction by Sasuke…
He absolutely could NOT send Deidara alone for future missions like capturing the Nine-Tails or searching for Sasuke.
Uchiha Itachi remained silent… but his thoughts were unknown.
Kisame chuckled:
"To think someone could push you to self-destruction… what a glorious early death."
Then—he shivered.
Itachi was staring at him.
"Ah—I-Itachi… I didn't mean it."
...
Hidden Stone Village.
"That was such an ugly loss."
sigh…
Ōnoki took a long breath.
"Grandpa, now that we know Deidara is in Akatsuki… shall we bring him back?"
Kurotsuchi asked.
She knew Ōnoki had always been unable to let go of Deidara.
"He won't come back."
"And if we want to bring him back…
I'd have to go personally."
"But I'm not ready to start a war with Akatsuki."
Ōnoki sighed again.
Deidara had once been his pride.
Now—he had become his regret.
...
Hidden Mist Village.
"I never expected a man to have that many mouths."
"His wife must be…"
Mei Terumi didn't finish her sentence—her face turned scarlet.
Beside her, Chōjūrō also went red.
A flustered Mei Terumi was truly beautiful…
...
Pure Land.
[Senju Tobirama: Nii-san! That Deidara is disgusting. After we're Edo Tensei'd, let's destroy him together.]
[Senju Hashirama: Tobirama! He's too gross—don't touch him. I'll throw a True Several Thousand Hands punch from a distance and blow him away!]
[Uchiha Madara: Hashiramaaa! That Deidara is MINE.
He dared harm a descendant of my clan—don't you dare steal him from me!]
