The leisurely life of the Hyuga main family

As the devouring began, the Jinchuriki were devoured one by one.

It took a total of several days, though not a long time.

"Speaking of which, the Konoha Festival is about to begin, isn't it?" Looking at Fu's final, lifeless body, Bai Yue rubbed his... his mask. "That girl's really pitiful. Her prime was just beginning and it's all gone. Should we try to save her... um?"

"Ah Fei, what are you thinking about?" Deidara asked curiously, slapping Bai Yue on the shoulder.

"I was thinking that this child was so young, yet he died so easily, and the murderer was none other than us, who had no grudge against him..." Bai Yue casually made up a reason.

These past few days, Bai Yue hasn't been idle either. She's been leisurely exploring the interior of the Akatsuki organization, and taking the opportunity to "build good relationships" with the other members.

However, the person he has the best relationship with right now is the rather eccentric Deidara. This is probably because this unfortunate kid, as the youngest member of the Akatsuki, has always been treated as a junior. Now that he suddenly has a polite junior, he takes better care of him.

Secondly, there's Kakuzu and Kisame, while Konan and Nagato, because they're very wary of Tsuchiko, can't be connected at all.

What? Why should I try to get closer to them?

Because it's fun!

"That's just how the ninja world is," Deidara shrugged, looking as if he was already used to it.

"Fine." Bai Yue shrugged, not expecting such a sad answer to her casual remark.

"How about we go out and have some fun?" Seeing that Bai Yue was no longer 'worried' about the question, Deidara immediately extended an invitation: "I've recently had a new inspiration, and this new art will definitely give that guy a run for his money."

"That guy? Who is he?" Bai Yue asked in confusion.

"Who else could it be but the Fifth Hokage of Konoha!" Deidara said through gritted teeth.

"Huh?" Bai Yue was taken aback. He didn't seem to have any grudge against Deidara.

But...it seems kind of interesting.

Faced with Deidara's sudden attack, Bai Yue was genuinely curious about what interesting trump card he could come up with.

"Oh right. It's normal that you don't understand since you've never met that guy." Deidara said solemnly, "That guy is strong, extremely strong! But he's incredibly arrogant!"

Really? I don't think I've looked down on anyone, have I?

"I hate it when people see me..." Deidara muttered to himself, clearly annoyed.

Oh, I got it!

After being easily defeated by Itachi, this guy became allergic to pretending to be something he'd never do.

And it was a very severe allergic reaction.

Later on, this guy shouldn't have died, but unfortunately, he encountered Erzhuzi asking for directions and was infuriated by Erzhuzi, a seasoned user of the "pretending to be an escapist" technique.

Seriously! A physical explosion!

"So, would you like to come with me to see my new art?" Deidara extended the invitation again.

"Senior Deidara, this isn't right. If I knew about these new ninjutsu, I wouldn't be able to do this..." Bai Yue said, feigning modesty.

"It's nothing!" Deidara, who didn't seem to care much about these things, continued smugly, "It's not my ultimate art anyway."

"Alright then..." Bai Yue was somewhat interested in Deidara's so-called art.

"Go..." Deidara summoned the giant clay bird with great enthusiasm, and was just about to call for Hakugetsu to follow when he was interrupted by the sudden appearance of Pain.

"The Hidden Cloud Village is preparing to launch a war against the Hidden Leaf Village," Pain said silently, appearing beside the two.

"Has the Fourth Raikage gone mad?" Deidara asked incredulously before Bai Yue could even speak.

"They're probably blaming Konoha for the disappearance of the Two-Tails Jinchuriki." Pain glanced at Deidara, briefly answering his question, then looked at Hakugetsu again: "If the two countries go to war, will it affect you?"

"It shouldn't have any impact, right..." Bai Yue said flippantly.

"Then I'll leave the Nine-Tails to you, but only after I've captured the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki." After sizing up Hakugetsu, Pain vanished again.

"I really didn't expect you to be so brave, kid." After Pain left, Deidara looked at Bai Yue in surprise. He really didn't expect this junior to be so brave, actually wanting to attack the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki: "That Fifth Hokage may be a bastard, but his strength is extremely powerful."

Alright, you're the first guy to dare call me a bastard to my face. You better remember this!

You're definitely going to get what's coming to you.

"If we don't have to confront them head-on, I should be fairly confident."

"No need for a direct confrontation?" Deidara scoffed. "Everyone knows to avoid that damned Hokage, but that guy has mastered the space-time ninjutsu Flying Thunder God Technique and even placed a mark on the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, allowing him to instantly arrive beside him! Avoiding him is simply impossible!"

Very well, this is the second time you've called me an idiot!

"Deidara-senpai, I can also use space-time ninjutsu!"

"Really?!" Deidara's eyes widened as he stared at Hakugetsu in disbelief, then he suddenly grabbed Hakugetsu's shoulder: "You really know space-time ninjutsu?"

"Of course!" Bai Yue raised his head confidently. He was a professional in spatial ninjutsu, you know.

"Can you teleport things to other places?" Deidara asked excitedly, his eyes gleaming.

"Sure, senior!" Bai Yue said with a smile.

"If the two of us work together well, we'll be invincible!" Deidara was even more excited after receiving a satisfactory answer. Without saying another word, he pulled Hakugetsu onto the back of the clay giant bird: "Let's go! Let's go!"

"Senior, where are we going?"

"I'll find a way to take down Konoha! Then you can send my art to Konoha and bombard them like crazy! It'll definitely cause Konoha a huge headache, and then it'll be easier for you to deal with the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki." Unable to suppress his desire for revenge, Deidara immediately controlled the giant clay bird to take off.

"Senior Deidara, are you planning to go with me to capture the Nine-Tails?" Bai Yue asked with a smile, blinking her eyes.

"Of course! Let's go! We have to teach that bastard Hokage a lesson he won't forget!"

Very well, that's enough for now, dear Deidara-senpai! You've already insulted me three times!

"Then let's go!" Bai Yue replied immediately.

The two happily rode the clay flying bird and flew quickly towards Konoha Village.

One wanted to get revenge on the user who pretended to be an imposter, and the other wanted to see Xiao Di's ghost-like expression.

While enjoying the beautiful scenery from the sky, I chatted with my classmate Xiaodi.

Gradually, the two people high in the sky began to see the outline of Konoha Village!
