Naruto: The Wind Calamity

Deidara was feeling helpless and annoyed at Fujin's Wind Domain. He couldn't help but recall the events that landed him in this situation. He and Sasori were looking for Orochimaru to eliminate him at Nagato's orders. They successfully found his main base even before Konoha's forces located it. However, they were misled just like Konoha's forces by Orochimaru's little scheme.

Since they weren't as good as the Konoha ninjas at tracking, their speed was slower. Before they could find the sacrificial unit, the place was swamped by Konoha ninjas, trapping them in the area too. As they had no reason to kill hundreds of Konoha ninjas and attract unneeded attention, they stayed hidden.

Under normal circumstances, Konoha ninjas wouldn't have found them. Unfortunately for them, the army was led by none other than Fujin, who found it peculiar that the Konoha ninjas couldn't spot the two disturbances in space that he was feeling with his Space Time Sensing Technique.

In the few minutes they clashed, Sasori ensured that his chakra threads didn't enter the Wind Domain, allowing him to keep control of his puppets. Unfortunately, it was almost impossible to hit Fujin from 50 meters away. Any surprising traps in his puppets would be just too slow to reach him. Not to mention, the winds would just knock off all of his attacks. Even poisonous gases were contained by the winds. On the contrary, Fujin destroyed the dozen puppets Sasori controlled. That said, it wasn't as if Sasori didn't have any gains.

As for Deidara, he went through half of his explosive clay to get a feel of the Wind Domain. While they gained some intel, they failed to inflict a single scratch on Fujin. However, intelligence was a crucial aspect in ninja battles. While Deidara was still too young and inexperienced, Sasori's analytical mind quickly calculated ways to counter the absurd jutsu.

He thought, 'What a remarkable control over the winds. I have never seen anyone even remotely close to this level of mastery in Wind Manipulation. At first glance, this technique is completely invincible. However, every technique has weaknesses. His weakness should be Pain's and Kisame's ability to absorb chakra.

Unfortunately, neither is here. Luckily, there are still several other shortcomings. Even though the technique is very strong, it severely restricts his movement. He can't move the Wind Domain along with him at a fast speed. Otherwise, we would already be trapped inside it.

In addition, the Wind Domain doesn't extend into the ground for obvious reasons. So, he can't counter underground attacks that easily. However, Zetsu said that he also displayed the ability to fly. He could avoid underground attacks that way, but it would increase his chakra consumption, which is another weakness of this jutsu.

Even though it looks like the dome is entirely made of winds, it contains a large amount of his chakra which he uses to control the winds. While my poisons and weapons have no effect on it, Deidara's explosions have consumed a decent amount of that chakra. Unfortunately, Deidara will run out of clay as well as chakra long before Fujin shows any signs of exhaustion. However, we could employ this tactic when we have a significant numerical advantage.'
