Deepa is one of the Inner Kara members who harbors a unique obsession with tasting various foods. On several occasions, he is shown visiting restaurants, but every restaurant he enters always ends up destroyed. Even the waiters and customers at those places are mercilessly slaughtered by Deepa.

Deepa also has personal rules that must not be broken. One of these is that he dislikes introducing himself. Moreover, anyone who sees his face or becomes aware of his existence is immediately eliminated by him.

Deepa’s obsession with food is not merely about tasting flavors but also about exploring things that intrigue him. However, he finds the flavors and textures of food in the world boring. For this reason, he supports Victor’s plan to grow an artificial Shinju Tree.

Deepa hopes to taste the fruit of the Shinju. His goal is not to gain power like the other Kara members but purely to satisfy his curiosity for new foods.

Unfortunately, his hopes were crushed when the artificial Shinju Tree melted, destroyed by Orochimaru’s Shikokumojin jutsu. Deepa became frustrated because he failed to fulfill his desire to taste everything in the world.

In battle, Deepa treats his enemies like ingredients being prepared for cooking. He relishes every moment when his enemies experience fear, pain, and despair. For Deepa, the expression of hopelessness from his opponents is an extraordinary “delicacy.” He even likens this delight to preparing meat dishes, where animals that experience fear before death are believed to produce tastier meat.

Deepa once admitted that stones and his body are the two most beautiful things in the world. Thanks to Amado’s modifications using Ninja Scientific Tools, Deepa possesses a special ability. He can absorb carbon from his body and create super-dense molecular bonds. These molecules are then hardened and polished to form beautiful stones and a body as strong as diamonds.

# The Special Abilities of Deepa’s Ninja Scientific Tools

# 1. Deepa Manipulates His Metallic Body to Withstand Attacks

Deepa demonstrated his strength during a battle against Kumogakure shinobi, including Marui, Kakui, and their leader, Omoi. With his hardened metallic body, Deepa was able to withstand a flurry of attacks from the Kumogakure team, who tried to overwhelm him with sheer numbers, even though he fought using only Taijutsu and his bare hands.

Even Raiton-based attacks, known for their effectiveness, failed to affect Deepa’s body, and Omoi’s signature sword technique, taught directly by Killer Bee, was also unable to scratch him. As a result, Kakui and Marui were killed in the battle, while Omoi was ultimately defeated by Deepa.

The strength of Deepa’s metal-coated body was so overwhelming that even powerful techniques from his opponents couldn’t harm him. Some examples include:

• Konohamaru’s Katon: Kayo Endan jutsu failed to burn his body.
• Mitsuki’s Sage Mode attack was ineffective in knocking him down.
• Even Boruto’s Rasengan, enhanced by his entire chakra reserve, had no effect on Deepa’s body.
• Shinki’s Kurogane no Kobushi attack was also unable to injure Deepa.

When Asaka tried to protect Boruto, she resorted to using the Kinjutsu **Higanbana** in a desperate attempt to blow herself up along with Deepa. The massive explosion from the jutsu directly hit Deepa. However, thanks to his impenetrable metallic body, Deepa survived the blast without sustaining even the slightest injury.

# Deepa Was Once Wounded

Despite his diamond-like body, Deepa was once injured. This incident occurred during a mission given by Victor to steal Toneri’s Kugutsu from Sunagakure. During the mission, he faced Team 10, consisting of Shikadai, Inojin, and Chocho, as well as a team from Sunagakure comprising Yodo, Araya, and Shinki.

At that moment, Deepa became careless, assuming he had already defeated all his opponents. However, as he turned his back while carrying the Kugutsu, Shinki seized the opportunity to launch a surprise attack. Shinki used his black iron sand to pierce Deepa’s back. This attack successfully injured Deepa’s back, marking the first time Deepa was wounded in a battle.
