Chapter 248: Art Bang Bang

Nami was still having a hard time with Yoroi. Thanks to the fact he could use prehensile hair.

She had managed to get away from him and was currently hiding.

However she didn't see him hiding behind her.

He grabbed her from behind using his life return which made his hair prehensile.

Back with Gaara, he glared at the man.

"What is your name?" asked Gaara.

"Deidara." Answered the man.

Gaara glared at him and sent his sand at him. However Deidara dodged.

"You know you have always been my target." Said Deidara.

"Is that so." Said Gaara.

Deidara took out more clay and began to shape.

Gaara watched while on guard, he knew whatever Deidara might try it would be difficult.

Even with his almost ultimate defenses.

Back with Nami, she was being choked by Yoroi's hair, Nami struggled but it was no use.

"When you got to that world tell my late mother…" said Yoroi, "Tell her that my… killer instinct is strong."

It should be noted that his mother is alive and well…

Thankfully Chopper showed up at the right time and saved her.

"Nami are you alright?" asked Chopper.

"Thank you Chopper! You saved me!" said Nami.

"Does he have weird powers?" asked Chopper.

"Yeah he can use his like octopus There's no way to handle him!" said Nami.

They watched as he tried to get up.

"We have to leave now!" yelled Nami.

"But what about the key?" asked Chopper.

Nami took out the key.

"You mean this?" asked Nami taking out the key.

Of course Chopper was surprised she had the key.

"I was able to pocket without him noticing." Said Nami.

"Which number is it?" asked Chopper.

"Three." Answered Nami.

"Shoot not the one." Said Chopper.

"What do you mean?" asked Nami.

"Well." Sighed Chopper.

Back with Gaara, he dodged the birds.

However they continued to follow him.

However Gaara didn't know why but he got the feeling, a feeling that Deidara was hiding something.

That was when Gaara got to a wall… he saw what had happened to the building.

"Is that why you're holding back?" asked Gaara, "You know about this… didn't you?"

"Knew about what?" asked Deidara.

Deidara stared at the wall, it was the cut made by Kaku earlier, he sweat dropped.

"You have got to be kidding me." Muttered Deidara.

Back with Nami and Chopper, Chopper wasn't able to tell Nami about Sogeking and Zoro's situation because of well… Sanji fell from the floors above.

However the strangest thing about the situation was that his entire body was shiny and smooth, it was very odd.

"He's really badly hurt!" yelled Chopper, "And what happened to him."

Nami looked up and saw Kalifa.

"You really couldn't beat them?" asked Nami.

Sane was silent.

"It was because your opponent was a woman and you went soft." Said Nami.

"I couldn't get the key." Said Sanji.

"I said nothing about the key." Said Nami.

She began to hit him with her climax-tact.

"When this is all over I'm telling Ino." Said Nami, "I have some words for you but I'm sure Ino could say it better."

"But she knows that it was drummed into me as a kid." Said Sanji, "But I will never kick a woman even if it kills me." Said Sanji.

"Which 9s why I'm telling Ino." Mumbled Nami.

Nami looked up at Kalifa, she knew what she had to do.

Back with Gaara he looked at Deidara and picked up certain things.

"You had no idea about this." Said Gaara.

"Of course not." Muttered Deidara.

"So then the reason why you're holding back…" said Gaara.

"My powers aren't good for indoors." Answered Deidara.

"My powers are restricted indoors as well." Said Gaara.

"I guess we both want the same thing.," said Deidara.

"But I refuse to fight you outside." Said Gaara.

"Great… I didn't want to do this." Muttered Deidara.

Deidara created a large bird and sent it over at the crack. Gaara eyes widened.

Back with Nami's group, she looked up at Kalifa.

"It's my turn." She said, "And I won't go easy."

"Neither will I." said Kalifa, "It seems like we'll get along just fine."

That was when there was a loud explosion.

"What was that." Said Chopper.

"I have no idea." Said Nami.

With Gaara he had managed to grab the bird before it hit the wall using his sand. Of course the same exploded everywhere.

"That was lucky." Mocked Deidara.

"I won't let you do that again." Muttered Gaara.

"Oh really?" asked Deidara.

Gaara unleashed his sand at Deidara, however Deidara could barely dodge.

"Won't let you destroy this tower!" yelled Gaara.

That was when another bird appeared, flew by Gaara and hit the crack.

"It doesn't even need to be big." Said Deidara.

The exploded shook the building, the top of the tower swayed but not enough to fall… at least just yet.

A good chunk of the wall was blown out.

"This fight only just begging." Said Deidara.

Back with Nami, she began to walk to Kalifa when Yoroi tried to attack her.

"Halt! You must not haste from my challenge!" called out Yoroi.

Before he could attack Chopper called out.

"I'll handle him, you take the woman!" said Chopper.

"Right!" said Nami.

And so the two left Sanji laying there…

Well it wasn't like he could move anyways.

With Luffy he almost trying to get to the other side. However Chimney and Gonbe managed to save him.

"What were you doing?" asked Chimney.

"I was trying to get to the other side." Said Luffy.

"That what were going to show you." Said Chimney.

Little did they know by doing that they almost trained everything.

Meanwhile with Sasuke he stared at Tobi.

"So you're supposed to be the decoy?" asked Sasuke.

Tobi nodded, "It's my job… I don't know what I'm being a decoy for." Said Tobi.

Sasuke decided to punch him out, it would have been the easiest thing.

"Man this is embarrassing." Said Sasuke.

Before the punch to make contact Tobi grabbed Sasuke's arm.

"It's not going to be easy." Laughed Tobi.

"Amazing." Thought Sasuke.

As it turns out Tobi was more dangerous than he seemed.

Next Time: Sasuke must fight the mysterious Tobi... is he stupid, crazy or faking it? Meanwhile Franky fights with his opponent. Also Luffy gets one step closer to finding Robin... well that's the good thing the bad thing is well... you just have to see...
