"What reforestation..."
Deidara glanced at him in surprise and curiously asked, "Aren't you from the Land of Earth? Where did you come from?"
"No, we're from the Land of Fire."
Akihara Kagura didn't shy away from his origins, smiling as he continued, "We usually travel around the Ninja World, helping people with reforestation and greening the environment. Isn't it needed here? There are bare rocks everywhere; wouldn't it be better to plant more trees?"
"Is there such a profession in the Ninja World?"
Deidara felt like he had learned something strange today as he looked around, "It's all stone here, how do you plant trees?"
"Very quickly."
Akihara Kagura slowly clasped his hands together and softly said, "Do you want to see what methods we use for reforestation..."
"Why don't you demonstrate..."
Deidara nodded his little head.
"Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence!"
The entire area suddenly sprouted tree roots and vines, with the rocks unable to stop their spread, rapidly transforming the place into an ancient forest. Although many trees in the forest were thick, they grew rather crooked and twisted.
"Careful!"
Always vigilant, the Five-tailed Jinchuriki Han quickly grabbed Deidara's shoulder, pulling the blond boy back in a rapid retreat, but they couldn't escape the area of Deep Forest Emergence and could only stop a little distance away, watching the Wood Release user and the little girl beside him!
"I'm fine!"
Deidara hadn't even reacted yet and was seriously contemplating this method of reforestation, "If planting trees like this..."
"This is Wood Release."
The Five-tailed Jinchuriki Han reminded the Tsuchikage's young disciple and continued, "There was news from the Land of Water that a Mizukage was captured by a Wood Release Ninja."
"The Mizukage was captured?"
"Another Wood Release Bloodline?"
Deidara's information was seriously out of date.
Since moving outside the village, Deidara relied solely on visits from Kurotsuchi and Akatsuchi for news. Kurotsuchi was basically a little brat, and Akatsuchi wasn't much older and not very bright, so they couldn't provide him with any information.
"Where are the Anbu members?"
The Five-tailed Jinchuriki Han didn't answer Deidara's question but tried to find the Hidden Rock Village Anbu Ninja within the forest, knowing they must be nearby.
"Are you looking for them?"
Akihara Kagura pointed to a giant tree within the forest.
A group of people were dangling from the tree, with more constantly being hung there. These people, bound by vines, were all wearing the Anbu uniforms of the Hidden Rock Village.
The Anbu of the Hidden Rock Village had long reacted and tried to jump out and attack Akihara Kagura, only to be captured by the vines.
"Protect yourself, I'll go capture him."
Five-tailed Jinchuriki Han instructed Deidara, and suddenly his red armor activated, releasing a burst of steam from it!
Harnessing the acceleration of the steam, Han's figure sped towards Akihara Kagura, and all the vines trying to block him were smashed apart by his monster strength!
However...
Human strength has its limits!
Han's monster strength was ultimately stopped by the vines!
A bundle of vines wrapped around his body, immobilizing him on the spot, and the vines quickly began draining his Chakra!
"Go, go, go..."
Deidara quickly spread open his hand, and small clay spiders scurried through the forest, attaching to the vines binding the Five-tailed Jinchuriki!
Boom!
A series of explosions resounded.
The vines were all blown apart by the explosions of the clay spiders!
"Lord Kagura, be careful."
Little Karin by his side opened her mouth to warn, as she could already sense more clay spiders crawling toward them!
"Clay bombs, huh..."
Akihara Kagura couldn't help but glance at Deidara.
Because Akihara Kagura's Wood Release Jutsu mainly consisted of large-scale and powerful techniques, these small clay spiders sneaking through the gaps were indeed troublesome.
Apart from the tiny clay spiders, there was also the escaped Five-tailed Jinchuriki Han, charging toward Akihara Kagura with his red armor continuously emitting steam!
"Don't worry."
Akihara Kagura remained calm, placing his hand on Karin, and both of their figures vanished instantly from the spot!
This entire forest was formed by his Chakra!
All the vines were manipulated by his Chakra, and wherever his Chakra reached, he could instantly leave his Flying Thunder God Mark. As long as Akihara Kagura was within this forest, he could move however he wanted!
"That is..."
Five-tailed Jinchuriki Han's expression suddenly darkened!
The speed at which that little fellow just disappeared reminded him of a person who once brought pain to the Hidden Rock Ninja, even destroying the elite forces of the Hidden Rock Village!
The last person to use this Jutsu was named Namikaze Minato!
"This isn't good..."
Five-tailed Jinchuriki Han remembered the village's warnings and quickly turned back, hoping to catch Deidara and retreat to the Hidden Rock Village in time!
However...
His speed was too slow!
Akihara Kagura quietly appeared behind Deidara, grabbing him by the neck and forcefully pressing the struggling blond boy to the ground!
"You... ugh... bastard..."
Deidara writhed on the ground, trying to break free and stand up, but vines wrapped around Deidara, pinning him to the ground!
