After my triumphs and defeats, I created multiple aliases across countless worlds.

Whether Deidara is dead or alive, obviously no one knows at the moment.

"Grandpa, what do we do now?!"

Kurotsuchi looked at Onoki with some anxiety. Now that Deidara had been taken away, she was also at a loss.

The two can be considered childhood friends, and they were always competing with each other at the Ninja Academy.

After all, it has always been rumored in the village that Deidara is the next Tsuchikage.

As someone who has always aspired to be the Tsuchikage and aims to become the first female Tsuchikage in history.

Between nature and Deidara, the black soil inevitably fell into competition.

Although she was competing with Deidara, she didn't want to see Deidara die like that.

"Should we go after him and check on the old man?"

Huang Tu looked around and saw some footprints, which were most likely left by the ninjas when they left.

Judging from the sound of the explosion and the current time it ended.

It's highly likely the other party hasn't gone far, so going there now might still give you a chance to catch up.

Huang Tu looked at Onoki, waiting for Onoki to give him orders.

Although he wanted to pursue him, after all, Deidara was a talent among the Iwa ninja.

Even if they die, we cannot let them wander outside; at the very least, we must find their body.

However, this was just Huang Tu's own opinion.

The key is to follow Onoki's orders.

Without Onoki's orders, Hikari couldn't possibly chase after him directly. Kurotsuchi, standing to the side, was also anxiously watching Onoki.

Chapter 114 - Xiao Di's Disdain: You really are an illiterate person!

"It's practically impossible to catch up now."

Onoki closed his eyes and sighed. There was no way he could catch up in this situation.

Even if someone were to chase after them, it seems unnecessary.

"Why, Grandpa?"

Heitu immediately panicked. How could they give up so easily?

We don't even know what's going on right now; Deidara might still be around here.

How can you just leave like that?!

"There's no reason why, it's because Deidara defected."

Onoki's face was gloomy; he hadn't really wanted to talk.

But since his granddaughter kept asking, he had no choice but to tell her the truth.

In a real sense, was it that he didn't want to do it?

Not at all!

However, it's because Deidara defected, not because he was taken away.

So from this perspective, it seems there's no need to do anything further.

"How can it be!?"

A look of shock flashed across Kurotsuchi's eyes. She never expected that Deidara would defect instead of being taken away by someone.

She was somewhat unwilling to believe it.

"Nothing is impossible. After all, haven't you noticed that there are only footsteps coming from here?"

Onoki pointed to the footsteps around him that had not yet been destroyed by the explosion.

The reason I was so sure was because there were no other footsteps here.

Therefore, they left riding on Deidara's flying bird.

So, under what circumstances would Deidara take people with him?

Wasn't it when he wanted to leave with the other person?

Otherwise, there would be no need for them to leave together. Even if they were taken away, it would never be by Deidara's ability to fly away.

"Grandpa, are you saying Deidara wanted to leave on his own?"

Huang Tu was also somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected this...

Deidara was not taken away by someone.

“That’s right, he did want to leave on his own. After all, he’s a rogue ninja. Go back and issue Deidara’s arrest warrant.”

A hint of discomfort flashed across Onoki's face.

He was grooming Deidara to be the next Tsuchikage.

Unexpectedly, he chose to leave and become a rogue ninja.

The purpose of sending Deidara to the monastery was twofold: firstly, to make Deidara realize his mistakes and that he could not continue down this path.

Another reason is that he wants to correct Deidara's temper.

Otherwise, given Deidara's temper, he would definitely suffer if he continued to do this, and this was also a punishment for Deidara's previous bombing behavior.

To Onoki's surprise, Deidara simply ran away.

"I don't believe it! How could Deidara possibly defect?!"

Kurotsuchi simply couldn't believe that Deidara would choose to defect.

Why would Deidara, who was given such high expectations, make this choice?

She was also a little confused at the moment.

If she had just persevered a little longer, she might have become the Tsuchikage someday. In fact, Kurotsuchi had absolutely no confidence in competing with Deidara.

She knew very well that Deidara would eventually become the Tsuchikage, yet he chose to defect.

"Who knows? We'll have to find out who took Deidara away!"

Onoki's face was grim, and he then ordered an investigation into who was the last person to contact Deidara.

The immediate priority is to find out who exactly approached Deidara.

"Understood, sir."

Huang Tu nodded in agreement.

"I'm going to ask him why he defected!!"

Kurotsuchi looked at Onoki with a somber expression. She was going to ask Deidara why he had defected.

You can't catch up.

Onoki shook his head, feeling somewhat helpless.

Why would your own granddaughter do this?

But after seeing the other person's persistent gaze, he felt a slight wavering in his heart.

It seems she has no choice but to go.

If we don't let the black soil pass through, we'll probably be stuck in a vicious cycle because of this.

"Alright, go and take a look."

With that, Onoki gestured to Kurotsuchi that they could leave, then glanced at the Anbu behind him and told them to follow him.

With Deidara already gone, he didn't want anything to happen to his granddaughter.

Therefore, it is essential to keep an eye on my granddaughter.

Several ANBU agents immediately followed after receiving Onoki's signal.

...

"It looks like someone is following us!"

They weren't moving very fast to begin with; they had only left earlier because of pursuers. But after their speed decreased, Bai Ye sensed a figure appearing in his mind.

Immediately afterwards, several more figures followed.

"The other side is taking a shortcut. Come to think of it, to be intercepted in mid-air, your ability is really lacking!"

In the original work, he was able to be chased by Kakashi all the way, although it was later due to Kamui.

But come to think of it, this bird doesn't seem to be very fast, or... is it just that Deidara hasn't shown his full potential yet?

"Tch, increasing speed requires more chakra. Using the kinetic energy of the air to fly can greatly save chakra. Don't you have any common sense?"

Deidara looked at Bai Ye with disdain; this had given him an opportunity.

Having been defeated by Bai Ye before, he was filled with resentment that he couldn't vent.

Now Bai Ye has walked right into the line of fire.
