Chapter 514: Edo Tensei: Liberation!
Deidara choked back another gasp.
Honestly, he had always considered Itachi stronger than him. The humiliating defeat back then still echoed clearly in his mind.
That was also one of the reasons he hated Sasuke—he wanted to defeat Sasuke first, then challenge Itachi for revenge!
But now Itachi had challenged him like this. If he backed down, wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing? So he gritted his teeth and accepted the challenge.
He would defeat Itachi first, then finish off Sasuke!
"Fine! Just you wait, after I prepare my clay, I'll crush you!"
Itachi nodded lightly, but inwardly he was very pleased.
As long as Deidara only challenged him, he was confident he could make Deidara never be able to cross the 'mountain' named Itachi!
That way, Sasuke would be spared a lot of trouble.
After all, a living Deidara wasn't too dangerous. But a Deidara in Edo Tensei form who could explode without limit? Without any snakes to sacrifice, Sasuke wouldn't survive.
