A bird flew high above the Leaf Village and a blond ninja watched the giants move below. "Not good , hmm," Deidara said before returning to the other two.

"So, what the f%#$ situation?" Hidan asked,still peeved about Asuma's actions from earlier.

"There are at least five giants keeping watch over the village from attack," Deidara said, "I doubt we could get in and find a suitable candidate before they come at us. Hmm."

"So we should return to Sasori and use these on his current slave," Kazuku said.

"What are you guys, chicken?" Hidan asked as he started walking to the village. But he didn't ger far as Kazuku ripped his head off Hidan's body.

"You need to pay attention. I'm going in on this gambit," Kazuku said, "And you may be immortal, but you're pretty useless like this." As he spoke, Deidara had his bird pick up Hidan's body.

"I'm going to kill you you bastard!" Hidan yelled as the other two started to go back to Sasori.

"You know, my target in Suna has a brother," Deidara said, "We could use him."

"And they wouldn't have any giants there," Kakuzu said.

"All right, we'll go there," Hidan said.

As the three Akatsuki went back to meet Sasori, they passed the Leaf Ninja by a mile.

"So Neji got to 120 feet tall," Jiraiya said, riding on a 20 foot Kakashi's shoulder. Sasuke was carrying Shizune, while Naruto carried Neji. "That will be useful."

"Yeah," Sasuke said, miffed that he wasn't able to save Sakura. The five ninja moved quickly back to the village and soon made it.

Back at Sasori and Sakura, Konohamaru grinned. He held the scroll his master gave him. "With this power, people will no longer see me just as the the honorable grandson," Konohamaru said opening the scroll and the dust came at him. He quickly shot up in height to 160 feet tall.

"Very good slave," Sasori said, looking his living puppet over.
