Naruto: If I ask you to kill Sasuke, you will become a succubus?

I pushed him away and said, "I'll show you when I'm done."

"Brother Scorpion's poison is not so easy to cure, don't let yourself cure it..." Deidara looked at me squatting next to Zabuza, still muttering in disbelief, "You don't use illusions to make Brother Scorpion hand over the antidote. Even if it's the Sharingan, it can't be able to detoxify, right? Hmm."

Zabuza looked into my Sharingan, and I could sense that he had the same doubts.

Deidara didn't know what he was thinking of, and suddenly realized: "Are you trying to use the Sharingan to hypnotize Zabuza, making him think he is not poisoned, and then deceive Brother Scorpion?"

"If you can think of it, Mr. Scorpion will think of it."

Deidara paused: "…what do you mean?"

"I won't joke about my companions' lives. If I just tricked Mr. Scorpion away and there was no antidote, wouldn't Zabuza still die?"

I stared into Zabuza's eyes and opened my Mangekyō Sharingan. At that moment, I felt like a reservoir, the chakra in my body was the water in the reservoir, and the Mangekyō Sharingan was my floodgate. As the floodgate opened, the water gushed out like a torrent.

distortion……

It was an invisible and mysterious feeling, hard to describe. I could only desperately try to grasp that feeling as the chakra flowed away and activate my ability before it was completely exhausted.

Twisting Zabuza's fate of dying from poisoning!

The moment I sensed success, I also felt as if my brain had been hit hard by someone.

The use of the Mangekyō Sharingan consumes a large amount of chakra. Chakra includes not only physical strength but also mental strength. Therefore, the burden on the body will cause physical and mental discomfort due to excessive weight.

At the same time, different things are distorted, and the effort required is also different. I can feel that distorting the fate of "death" is definitely the most difficult one.

But now is not the time to show weakness.

I have to appear very relaxed so that the enemy cannot figure out my true intentions and maintain deterrence.

Although Bai can hide in the mirror to avoid Scorpion's attacks, his chakra cannot be maintained for too long. If he cannot break Scorpion's defense, then even if there is a stalemate for a while, in the end Scorpion will have the advantage because he is well-rested.

Since Zabuza was defeated by Scorpion once, it would be difficult for him to win even if he was given another chance.

I don't want to fight Scorpion, not only because I think his body will be my future comrade-in-arms, but also because once we fight, the possibility of being defeated is too high, and I may even be seriously injured.

So it is best to avoid direct combat if victory can be achieved in other ways.

But... I felt like I couldn't stand up on my own.

Zabuza stretched his arm in front of me, and I was stunned for a moment, then I understood what he meant.

I put my hands on his arms, and it would be difficult for outsiders to tell whether I was helping him up or using his body to support myself.

Deidara asked incredulously: "How did you do that!?"

"Distortion." I answered him in a relaxed tone, "Didn't I tell you? My ability is distortion."

"Isn't it true that you can only twist other people's minds? Huh?"

"I twisted fate." I looked up in Scorpion's direction and said, "Mr. Scorpion, no matter how many times you poison Zabuza, I will save him."

Deidara repeated in disbelief: "Fate? What fate?"

Zabuza said in a deep voice: "Bai, come back."

According to our bet, Scorpion has already lost. Rather than letting Haku maintain the magic mirror ice crystal until he runs out of chakra and has to cancel it, it would be more decent for him to take the initiative to end the ninjutsu.

Shiro landed next to me, fending off Deidara and me.

Deidara said unhappily, "Hey, I still want to see her Sharingan!"

The white face with the mask on ignored him.

"Deidara, come here." Scorpion said in a low voice.

Deidara looked at Scorpion, then at me, frowned, and walked over reluctantly.

I stared at the two people opposite me, knowing full well that the fate of many people present depended on Scorpion's thoughts.

I won't be able to distort fate a second time in this short period of time. If Zabuza and Haku are poisoned again, I will be powerless. Or if Scorpion attacks me, my ability will not be able to be used on myself.

But seeing that he looked different from how he was in Kankuro-sama's hands, I felt uncomfortable.

Sasori and Deidara are both strong men who can be called geniuses, and Haku and Zabuza are definitely not weak either. As ninjas, we have to go through rigorous training since childhood, and in some special areas, such as the Hidden Mist Village, we have to endure the pain of the death of our companions.

But will our final outcome be to be hired by a scumbag like Cardo to kill each other? Or accept some inexplicable tasks and die for nothing?

Scorpion's battle at the hands of Kankuro-sama will definitely be much more meaningful than it is now!

But he seemed content with it and didn't think there was anything wrong with his behavior.

Even if Cardo could offer a lot of money as a hireling, when a life could be measured in money, no matter how high the price was, it would seem cheap.

Ninja...are they such cheap beings?

"What's the matter?" Zabuza saw that I had not said anything, perhaps because he felt that I could no longer speak. He forcefully asked Scorpion to speak for me: "The famous Scorpion of the Red Sand, are you going to go back on your word?"

Scorpion said: "Just like Deidara said, you can't prove whether the poison in your body has really been removed or you are just deceiving me."

Bai Yin suppressed his anger and asked, "What do you want?"

"Since you said my poison is meaningless to you," the scorpion's tail rose from the bottom of his robe behind him, and he looked at me with a sinister look. "Then, even if you are poisoned again, you can solve it yourself."

But the tail was just a feint. He suddenly opened his mouth, and the mechanism in his mouth would surely shoot out countless poisonous needles like a rainstorm in the next instant.

Haku and Zabuza both tensed their bodies suddenly, trying to take me with them to dodge.

But Bai's attack method also includes a rain of needles. He should be very clear that it is already very difficult for him to completely avoid the storm-like rain of needles, not to mention that he has to carry a burden that makes it difficult for his body to move freely.

I simply pushed Zabuza's arm away and took a step forward.

Bai said nervously, "Chao Lu!"

I glared at Scorpion and said, "Are you done yet? You always say art is art... Is your art just like a tool? No matter who the client is, you will obey him willingly!? As a puppeteer, you live like a puppet that can be used by anyone as long as they have money. What is the difference between you and the puppet in your hand!?"

The scorpion's mouth was wide open as if it was stuck, and it did not launch an attack.

I glared at Deidara, "Aren't you all talented artists? A genius is... among tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, tens of millions of people, there can only be one as powerful, unique, and artistic as you... Why did you let yourself be tainted by a scumbag like Cardo? Can Cardo understand your art? Although you are defected ninjas, haven't you always insisted on your art? But you sell your art for money... Is your art so cheap? As artists, you are really... too degenerate!!"

Deidara: "...We just accepted a commission, right?"

"I look down on you! You are not worthy of admiring the Sharingan!"

"Hey! All ninjas are like this!"

"If you don't want to pick on anything, why did you defect? ​​Why don't you just follow the village's instructions and take whatever missions you're given? You must have defected because you wanted to do something that others didn't allow you to do! Since you've become a defecting ninja just to stick to your guns, why are you acting like a bystander now with Cardo?"

Deidara: "..."

scorpion:"……"

I took another step towards Scorpion. "If you want to be a puppet in Cardo's hands no matter what, then use poison on me! I will stand right here and will never move away!"

scorpion:"……"

I kept walking and walking until I reached him.

At this distance, I could even see the bloodshot in his eyes.

With the adrenaline from my nameless anger, I felt that they couldn’t see that I was almost at the end of my strength: “You can just poke me to death with your big tail!”

The scorpion's big tail slowly descended and retracted under the robe.

"…Deidara, let's go."

Deidara: "Ah? But..."

But the scorpion had already turned and left.

Deidara looked at his back, then looked into my eyes, his face showing a very embarrassed and conflicted expression.

He seemed to want to admire the Sharingan, but I just wanted him to leave as soon as possible: "Come back in six months..."

Deidara uttered a “tsk” and turned to rush towards Scorpion: “Brother Scorpion, wait for me!”

I wanted to hold on until their backs disappeared, but as soon as they turned around, I felt dizzy and couldn't hold on any longer.

Just when my legs went weak and I was about to collapse to the ground, someone grabbed my waist from behind and prevented me from falling.

"Well done," Kakashi's familiar voice came from my ears, his tone was gentle and concerned: "Asahi... you've worked hard."
