A portal opened and Shika came out of it, missing an arm, leg and entire section of his stomach from one side.
"Haffff hasss…" He breathed hard, trying to regain his breathing, trying to stop the blood from overflowing.
He was very close to just passing out but somehow kept himself awake. His shadow morphed the moment he came out of the portal and a deer came out.
Before anything else, the deer pours all his reverse curse energy to heal Shika. The moment Shika came under Round Deer's healing range, he felt a warmth pass through his entire body and all his lost body parts were regenerated in an instant.
"Haaaa haaa…" Only then he was able to regain his breathing as he gaped for air before calming down.
"Thanks, you save my ass there…" Shika turns to the ever-stoic and nonchalant deer with a grateful look on his face. Of course, he didn't get any response but he was grateful nonetheless.
'Damn that Deidara…' he cursed under his breath. Deidara just used his giant bomb with millions of miniature bombs which explode at the cellular level.
Shika knew what happened went Deidara would use that giant version of himself as a bomb. He was ready to dodge it anytime with his teleportation but that damn bomb caught Max Elephant.
Shika had to go there to save the Elephant or he would have lost Max Elephant. As soon as he released Max Elephant he opened a portal to get out of there but he was still not fast enough, a few of those cellular bombs were attached to his body and destroyed it from the molecular level.
'I'm just glad that I have round deer or god only knows what would have happened.' He sighed and as he regained the feeling of his hand and leg he was ready to go back to fight but that was when his mind clicked on something.
It was like a 1000-megawatt bulb lit up in his head. And a ridiculously big smile appeared on his face.
"I'm not sure whether I'm an idiot for planning something so dangerous or actually considering doing it…" Shika laughed to himself suddenly, a mad look appearing on his face making him look strange and dangerous to many.
"Maybe it was what just happened now which gave me the further courage but let's go for it.
NO RISK IT, NO BISCUIT…" He told himself this mantra and got ready.
—-
On the other hand, Deidara was flying up high in the air, looking down to see where Shika went, though he was sure that his last attack was almost impossible to avoid for anyone except for Raikage, he still waited until he got clarification of Shiak's death.
"Ha… haha haha.. finally gone. Finally, it's over. My art has prevailed supreme." Shouted Deidara at the top of his lungs. He had used much of his resources in this fight, he wasn't expecting this fight to be this hard but ultimately his art came out victorious.
However, that was when suddenly he saw something coming right towards his dragon.
The speed of this thing was so fast that he couldn't even reach on time and before even he knew it, his dragon was cut into two.
"FUCK…." He shouted as he began to fall and that was only when he completely saw what cut his dragon into two. It was a sword, an sword which could extend in size and had lightning crackling around it.
The person who was holding onto that sword on the ground was none other than Shika who looked completely unharmed and this left Deidara disbelieving. He could have sworn he saw Shika rushing towards his bomb when he exploded it, there was no way Shika could do that until he had an ability very could be very similar to Tobi.
But right now wasn't the time, he was still falling and thus he quickly took out the remaining clay he had on him and made a small bird to fly on and land safely.
"Yo, Hisashiburi…" Shika grinned as he saw Deidara landing with a strange smile on his face.
'He looks different…' That was the first thing which came to Deidara's mind upon seeing Shika, he couldn't pinpoint it but there was something different about Shika here, he couldn't pinpoint it but he could feel that there was something different about him.
That was also when he saw the ruined clothes of Shika. Making him more confused.
'Did my bomb work on him? If so then how he survived ?' His mind was working thousands of miles a minute to understand what just happened.
But Shika wasn't ready to give him that time, while earlier Shika was fighting Deidara without using his Shinigami as he was afraid of that pyromaniac blasting them to kingdom come and hardly use his Rinnegan near him since there was a possibility that black Zetsu could spy on him and in this case him showing off his Rinnegan was bad news.
Now he no longer planned to hold back, not like he had a solution for that peeping tom but now his goal had changed. However, that still doesn't mean that he had to resort to using his hidden cards just yet. He still has a few things which he can use to beat Deidara.
One of them was pure old shinobi-style deception and trap.
"Sorry, but kid gloves are off now." Shika smiled and said making Deidara tense.
'You tell me that all was with gloves on you bastard. Fuck you.' Deidara wanted to curse but suddenly he found that he wasn't capable of moving anymore. His body felt like being restrained by something.
He is barely able to look down only to see shadow connecting to him.
"You, you are not from Kiri…" Deidara's immediately recognized this technique and realized that he was wrong. Nara Clan's shadow technique is not something just anyone would do, its very similar to bloodline only people from the Nara clan know this technique and Nara only exists in the land of Fire, in Konoha.
"Yeah…" Shika shrugged, he pointed his sword at Deidara with lightning crackling around it.
Deidara's eyes widen.
"Sorry, but it's time to end this fight…" Shika smiled and extended his sword, directly piercing Deidara's chest.
Blood splattered and Deidara fell down. This time this was the real Deidara, he didn't have the time to replace himself or move after falling down. He directly fell for Shika's trap.
This is the reason why information is such an important thing in this world, with the right information even the weak can win against the strong. This was the power of deception.
"Haha…" But even after getting his chest impaled by a sword, Deidara laughed. His menacing laugh now matches Shika's earlier demiere.
"So this is how it ends huh, good then I'll make sure to make this end a fabulous one. My art will brighten up the world…" Deidara shouted and then he ripped apart his shirt, revealing another mouth on his left chest.
"You might think that you won but you can't be further from the truth, I still have my greatest art left. It's time to make an art of myself. I'll explode and take you with me, in the show of the greatest art this world has ever seen…" Deidara laughed and took out all the clay he had left and fed it to the mouth on his chest.
"So here it's comes…" Shika let out a breath, this last technique was the only reason he had to make sure he created so much distance between them and Suigetsu and Haku. This technique was fatal and he had to make sure that if it came down to it, that he couldn't beat Deidara without letting him use this technique then it would be very dangerous for himself and them.
That was the reason he was letting Deidara use up all his clay so that he ran out of clay to the point either he outright couldn't use this move or the move itself did not have much power behind it.
However, that all changed when his next plan came into motion. Earlier he was planning on using the hit-and-run tactics to annoy Deidara just enough that he used all he had to deal with him but just not this one move. Now he wanted Deidara to use this move.
Becuase he had a crazy plan.
"I see… then I too would like to see this magnificent art of yours…" Shika smiled and then with a puff of smoke he disappeared.
"Huh…" Deidara who was already half done, almost ready to explode himself was shocked. His mind buzzed, Shika was gone and he couldn't stop this attack mid-way.
Gritting his teeth he put more chakra into the attack just to make sure the explosion became bigger and Shika, wherever he was, got trapped in it.
And just right now, about 200 meters ago from Deidara. Shika took.
He had his eyes closed and the moment he got his clone's memories he bolted into action. Making a familiar hand sigh he got ready.
