Naruto, this game world seems a bit real.

Chapter 213 Driven Out of the Village

Iwagaku Village in the Land of Earth.

"Deidara, are you ever going to stop? You're making so much noise every single day!"

Qingrou walked out of the room with a face full of anger and roared at the blond man with a high ponytail.

"What do you know? Art is about practicing early in the morning."

After Deidara finished speaking, he shouted "Hah!" and several more explosions rang out.

"Go to hell with you, I'm making you practice so early in the morning."

"Earth Release: Earth Cone Technique!"

With a 'pui' sound, Qingrou instantly formed hand seals, and countless earthen spikes emerged from the ground, stabbing towards Deidara who was standing on the ground.

Deidara immediately conjured a bird and flew into the sky.

Earth Release: Falling Rock Technique!

In an instant, countless stones fell from the sky, as if the stones had eyes, falling only in Deidara's direction.

"Qingrou, are you serious..."

Deidara yelled, using one hand to direct the bird beneath his feet to move quickly, while the other hand released a handful of clay, blasting the falling stones to pieces. "Bang bang bang..." The explosions echoed one after another.

At that moment, the sky resembled a spectacular explosion.

"Earth Release: Light and Heavy Rock Technique!" After Qingrou finished casting the spell, her body instantly felt light and she flew into the sky.

"Qingrou, you actually learned that old man's ninjutsu!" Deidara exclaimed in disbelief.

Qingrou was too lazy to pay attention to him. She was determined to beat him into submission today, so he wouldn't keep bothering her all day.

Earth Release: Needle Stone Technique!

Countless needles formed from the earth shot rapidly toward Deidara.

Deidara immediately activated his clay defense, blocking everything.

"Sister Qingrou, Brother Deidara, please stop fighting!" Kurotsuchi looked up at the sky and pleaded loudly with the two of them.

The two ignored him, and the battle intensified.

The explosions in the sky never stopped.

"You...you...when did you learn how to explode clay?" Deidara watched as Qingrou sculpted his likeness out of clay and then exploded in front of him, it was simply unbelievable.

"Guess!" Qingrou wouldn't tell him that this was something you taught the main character during the Chunin Exams, so of course she knew it too.

Upon hearing this, Deidara choked for a moment, then declared, "Qingrou, today I'll show you that I am the true founder of 'Art is Explosion'."

"Come on... I'll defeat you today with your so-called explosion..." Qingrou said sarcastically.

The moment their eyes met in the sky, their hands began to move.

Before long, they all threw out the clay they had made.

"Dust Release: Particle Style: Detachment Technique!"

At that moment, a white light enveloped the clay that the two had thrown, and in no time the clay vanished into nothingness.

"You two are actually fighting in the village? Do you even respect me, the Earth Shadow?"

Suddenly, Onoki appeared in the air, his face grim as he reprimanded the two.

If he had arrived a moment later, half of the village would have been destroyed.

Both of them looked secretly disappointed, as no winner had been decided.

This made Onoki's veins bulge. "You two will be living outside the village starting tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, the two glared at each other and turned away without giving Onoki a second glance.

It's unbelievable that Onoki had no interest in either of the two candidates who were most promising candidates for the Tsuchikage position.

He remembered that they had been told whoever learned Dust Release first would become the next Tsuchikage. Upon hearing this, the two of them ran faster than anyone else, afraid of being left behind.

You should know that many people want to be in this position but can't!

"Grandpa, Qingrou must have lost interest in the Tsuchikage position after returning because she failed in the last mission and caused the deaths of two of her teammates. She felt guilty about it."

"Brother Deidara, he's just having a temporary moment of confusion."

At that time, Kurotsuchi was still a little girl with a soft and sweet voice, which softened Onoki's gloomy face.

"This time, let the two of them reflect on their actions outside the village. None of you are allowed to secretly support them." Ōnoki said this and turned to leave.

Qingrou and Deidara were neighbors. They didn't speak to each other the whole way as they went home to pack their things.

She calculated the time and felt that Deidara should have left by now, so she opened the door with her bag on her back.

Deidara happened to think the same way.

By sheer coincidence, the two of them came out of the house at the same time.

"What a coincidence, do you need a ride?" Deidara raised an eyebrow and spoke first.

"No need!" Qingrou casually picked up a bird that was a size larger than Deidara's foot and left.

Deidara immediately understood what she was thinking, and his face darkened instantly.

Although they used to compete and win, he always came out on top.

Ever since Qingrou returned from her failed mission, her strength seems to have increased dramatically. She hasn't won a single time, at most managing a draw.

Now he's using his signature Explosion Release technique to fight him.

"If we were to be defeated one day, wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing!"

He absolutely cannot let this happen.

Upon leaving Iwagakure, the two instantly let loose and embraced their newfound freedom.

Qingrou doesn't need to maintain a certain persona; she clashes with Deidara every day, though most of the time she just wants to teach the brat a lesson.

Deidara felt he could finally unleash his full potential, and it would be even better if he could meet Uchiha Yoru.

“Uchiha Yoh, she’s long dead.”

Qingrou heard Deidara muttering and kindly offered a reminder.

"Qingrou, don't say anything reckless just to beat me." Deidara instantly bristled.

“You don’t know anything about what’s going on in the village. It’s not a secret.”

“Think carefully about a year and a half ago, when the village suddenly transferred out most of its ninjas to attack Konoha, and also joined forces with the other three countries.”

"It's a pity that despite all the preparations, he was defeated by a man named Uchiha Ye. He fought four Kage alone and ended up killing himself by pulling the four Kage with him."

"If it weren't for the fact that the tailed beast inside the Mizukage was bearing a large part of the burden, the four Kage would probably have had to be replaced."

Deidara grew increasingly shocked as he listened, his face filled with disbelief.

"If you don't believe me, go ahead and ask someone else."

Qingrou spread her hands and controlled the bird beneath her feet, flying away from Yanyin Village.

Deidara flew towards the Tsuchikage's office; he wanted to find Onoki and get some answers.

"Finally, I don't have to be neighbors with this guy anymore. That's great."

"Finally, I can get a good night's sleep."

What Qingrou just said was not against her conscience at all; it was simply the truth.

Deidara left the Tsuchikage's office, feeling an indescribable sadness.

On one side is his hometown village, and on the other side is the girl he liked at first sight.

Now that she's dead, there's nothing he can do.

Deidara left Iwagakure looking utterly dejected.

The next morning, Qingrou was awakened again by a series of explosions.

"It must be an illusion. I'm clearly not Deidara's neighbor anymore."

"That must be it."

Qingrou pulled the covers over her head, ready to go back to sleep, when another huge explosion rang out, like a demonic sound piercing her ears.

"Deidara, you're haunting me!" Qingrou kicked open the door and roared. Her gentle and good temper had vanished the moment she encountered Deidara.

"Qingrou, what are you saying? Others who want this wake-up service don't even get it."

"Then I should thank you!" she said through gritted teeth.

"No need for thanks, just make me breakfast, I'm hungry," Deidara said without any politeness.

"Okay, you wait." Qingrou suddenly became very easy to talk to, and her smile was so gentle that it made Deidara's heart tremble.
