Surprise Attack and Diversion Platoon

The Akatsuki Ambush and Distraction Squadron was formed by Kabuto Yakushi during the outset of the Fourth Great Shinobi War. The primary goal of the squad was to conduct an air raid on the Allied Shinobi Forces. The members were all resurrected by Kabuto using the Summoning: Impure World Resurrection technique.

Kabuto selected the members of this team based on their ambush abilities. Sasori has experience with making traps, Deidara has his Exploding Clay, Chūkichi is a sensor, and Shin would function as backup. When Chūkichi refused to follow orders from Akatsuki, Kabuto erased his personality. The team later located Muta, Ranka Aburame and Tokuma Hyūga while they left the area of Mountains' Graveyard.
