This scenario takes place during early part 2. Deidara and Sasori have decided to defect from the Akatsuki, citing that the group's goal of collecting the bijuus to monopolize and manipulate shinobi conflict is rather inartistic, and decide to capture them on their own. Deidara believes it'd be infinitely more inspiring to blow each chakra demon to oblivion, while Sasori wants to try his hand at creating bijuu puppets. While their goals are rather contradictory, they eventually agreed to split the bijuus if they were successful in capturing them. Obviously the Akatsuki will not tolerate insubordination, and decide to send their agents after the two rogue shinobi-artists. Can Sasori and Deidara defeat them all and capture the bijuu?
