"I would not bother asking Tsuchikage. When it comes to sharing information don't expect to get anything back from him or that village of his."
Minato glared a little from his seat while the two kages huffed. "Not surprising. The boy always was full of himself," Onoki muttered while Kakashi glared at him before Onoki glared at Kakashi.
"Boy if you don't stop glaring at me you will be joining your father in the afterlife," he threatened as Minato put his hand on Kakashi's shoulder as things went quiet in the Hokage box.
"Good job out there Anko. You showed him who was boss," Naruto said as Anko shrugged. "I did what I could," she said before looking at Itachi." You better win your match because I will be waiting for you in the next round," she said as Itachi nodded and began walking onto the field.
Itachi arrived on the field as he looked across from his opponent, Deidara of Iwa. The blond Iwa shinobi was grinning as his hands were very close to a pouch on his side.
"Are Uchiha-san? Are you ready to behold my art. It is quite a bang," he said as Itachi furrowed his brow.
"Art?"
"Art is fast, something that happens in an instance. It so quick most don't even see it. Except for me that is. Its art, it's beautiful. It would be great to defeat you Uchiha-san. My sensei the Tsuchikage will be pleased with me knowing I defeated someone of the famed Uchiha clan."
After speaking many looked at him in surprise at that he was trained by Onoki. Some of the Uchiha members including Mikoto looked a little worried while Fugaku and the others showed no emotion.
In the Kage box the other kages looked at Onoki in surprise since Onoki had never shown any interest in taking on a student before other than those in his family. So they wondered what was so special about this one boy.
"A student of the Tsuchikage.? He is going to be good then," Naruto said as Anko nodded in agreement.
Pakura's voice broke everyone out of their thoughts as she raised her hands. She looked towards the two who both nodded at her. She nodded back before calling out "HAJIME."
Immediately both Itachi and Deidara jumped back from each other to the other side of the field. Naruto fingered his shurikans in his pocket while keeping his eyes plastered on Deidara while Deidara and put his hand in the pouch and took out a lump of white clay. Everyone looked in curiosity at what h was going to as well as Itachi before everyone had a slightly grossed out looked when they saw a hand appear on his hand with a tongue sticking out of it. It ate the clay and began to munching on it.
"I think I lost my appetite Kaa-chan," Sasuke said looking a little green as did Ria who was pouting and waving her arms at the action, obviously not impressed.
Deidara grinned before he noticed that Itachi's eyes and become Sharingan and were spinning around. He looked away and tried to avoid eye contact since he had been told that an Uchiha could easily put a genjutsu on someone by just looking at them.
"Your eye tricks won't work on me," he said as Itachi then threw a flurry of shurikens.
"Doton: Doryūheki," Deidara called as he made the hand signs while his right hand was still munching on the clay. The wall went u and stopped the shurikans but Deidara was surprised to see Itachi quickly appear on top of the wall .
"Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu" A torrent of fire went towards Deidara and poured over Deidara much to everyone's surprise and few a few people's cries.
Itachi looked a little surprised but when the fire disappeared he and everyone went al title wide eyed when they saw Deidara begin to melt away.
"A clone," Itachi thought before he suddenly heard scurrying come from beneath him. He looked down to see little spiders made of clay walk towards him.
"It seemed you fell into the trap," Deidara said appearing a distance behind him and made a hand sign. "KATSU."
When he spoke the spiders lit up and to everyone's surprise exploded. "ITACHI," Anko shouted out having seen her friend in the centre of the explosion though Naruto stayed looking calm. Though she and many other were relieved when they saw a log was now where Itachi as standing.
"Not bad," Itachi said now appearing behind Deidara with a kunai to the back of his neck. "When did you make the clone?"
"I see the Uchiha live up to their name. I would be disappointed if you did not. And to answer the question when the earth wall went up."
"But you Uchiha's really should pay more attention behind you," Deidara called as Itachi looked behind to find more clay spiders appearing and jumping towards him and trying to latch onto him.
