After a round of bombing, Thor no longer looked as handsome and suave as before. There was some blood on his forehead, his hair was disheveled, and his clothes and armor were covered in dark, charred marks.
"Thor!!" The people on the ground also witnessed Thor's act of shielding them from the bombs, and they were all deeply moved. Even when Coulson transmitted this scene back to the Triskelion, the headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury couldn't help but believe Thor's earlier words about wanting to ally with them. If it wasn't for an alliance, how else could Thor's current actions be explained?
However, despite the emotional moment, the people below could do nothing, and dared not do anything. It was obvious that the member of the Akatsuki named Deidara, who was currently called Deidara, was doing this to exhaust Thor. Perhaps he never even considered truly attacking these people below.
Thor couldn't gamble, so he could only physically block the bombs. But once these people below provoked Deidara and angered him, Thor might not even be able to save their lives.
To be on the safe side, for their own sake and not to disappoint Thor's kindness, everyone obediently stayed where they were. The only one who wanted to take action, Jane Foster, was stopped by Dr. Selvig and didn't let her act recklessly.
Seeing everyone behaving as expected, Deidara laughed arrogantly and then threw out more clay birds.
"Hahaha! Keep it coming!"
"But aren't you the God of Thunder? Why do you keep getting beaten up? Are you the God of Taking Hits or the God of Hammers?"
Facing Deidara's mockery, Thor could only forcibly withstand the bombs. In the intervals between blocking the bombs, he threw his Mjolnir at Deidara. However, how could such straightforward attacks possibly hit Deidara?
Therefore, in this battle, Deidara took advantage of the terrain and single-handedly hammered Thor. Although Thor might be physically stronger than Deidara, the current situation was firmly in Deidara's favor.
On the other hand, compared to this side, the other battle was more balanced. Minato Namikaze and Kakashi Hatake both mastered space-time ninjutsu. They both knew that if they really fought, the outcome between them would be determined in an instant. But if they fought like that, it wouldn't look good.
Therefore, for the sake of spectacle, the two of them stopped using space-time ninjutsu during the battle and instead engaged in a ninjutsu showdown. Minato, in his Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, gleamed golden all over, using his super mobility to constantly use various ninjutsu to consume Kakashi.
Due to abandoning the use of Kamui, Kakashi also didn't bother to hide and directly summoned Susanoo. As soon as the half-transparent, blue-skinned skeletal giant appeared, it immediately attracted the attention of agents Coulson and Hawkeye from S.H.I.E.L.D.
Compared to the 'boom boom' of the willing to fight willing to take hits in the sky, the battle on Minato's side was more entertaining and more flashy.
"I didn't expect you to even master Susanoo!" Minato looked at Kakashi, who was unscathed, and said coldly, "With this kind of power, your status in Konoha would not be low. Why betray us?"
"Susanoo?" Hearing this word from afar, Coulson quickly noted it down and instructed someone to look up its meaning. Then, the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents found out that it was a Japanese deity. Coulson was stunned for a moment, and he became more convinced in his heart: Konoha, Akatsuki, and everything else must be related to Japan! He would ask the director to put more pressure on Japan later!
"Betrayal?" Kakashi sneered, "I didn't betray Konoha; it was Konoha that betrayed me!"
"Enough talk, let's fight!" Kakashi obviously didn't want to say more. Before the words fell, the blue giant on his body filled up with flesh and blood, put on clothes, and finally put on armor!
*Ka-ching!*
With a squeeze of the hands of the half-body armored giant, two shuriken, identical to the Kamui Shuriken in Kakashi's Mangekyō Sharingan, appeared in the hands of Susanoo!
"Divine Power Shuriken!"
*Swoosh!*
The two shuriken flew out of his hand and instantly turned into four!
The trajectory of the four Divine Power Shuriken seemed simple and easy to dodge. But Minato knew that it was almost impossible to evade them. Spatial locking meant there was no way to escape without using space-time ninjutsu.
Thinking of this, Minato reluctantly used Flying Thunder God Technique. According to their tacit understanding, whoever used space-time ninjutsu first would lose.
However, it seemed that Kakashi's Divine Power Shuriken was also a space-time ninjutsu!
*Swoosh!*
Minato disappeared from the ground, and the Divine Power Shuriken lost their target and hit the ground!
*Swoosh!*
After hitting the ground, a strange sound appeared, and the ground was directly distorted, and then a large piece of land disappeared into thin air!
Four shuriken, four huge pits appeared. This kind of power made Coulson and others in the distance shudder. If such powerful darts were shot at the Triskelion, the White House, or the Pentagon, who could stop them?
Is this the true strength of the world's number one villain organization, the Akatsuki? And that Deidara, he seems very powerful too...
