"Idiot."
Ignoring the samurai thugs, Sasuke looked at the smug Gato and mocked him mercilessly.
Although he knew this guy had a unique way of thinking, he didn't expect him to be so impatient!
Coming out now, wasn't he forcing Zabuza to betray him?
"Kakashi. I'm sorry, but it seems our battle is over. From now on, that old man is no longer our target," Zabuza said, changing his tone, his eyes glinting with a cold light.
It was difficult for him and Haku to deal with Kakashi and his team, but facing Gato was like slaughtering chickens and dogs.
"Is that so? I understand.Naruto, Sakura, protect Tazuna. Leave the rest to Sasuke and me," Kakashi said, giving Zabuza a deep look, then changing his strategy.
Although they could deal with Zabuza, there was no need to risk an unnecessary battle!
If Zabuza retaliated and killed someone or escaped and targeted them, those were outcomes Kakashi didn't want.
Being targeted by an elite jĹnin was not good!
"Huh. It changed just like that? Clearly, they were mortal enemies before! How did they suddenly stop being opponents!"
Naruto cried out in confusion, finding the change hard to accept.
"Exactly! Can we trust him, Kakashi-sensei?" Sakura asked, her eyes warily fixed on Zabuza and the unconscious Haku.
These two nearly killed Naruto and put Sasuke and Kakashi-sensei in a tough fight!
"This is what it means to be a ninja. In missions, we face complex situations. No one knows what sudden changes come next.Maintaining a clear mind and rationality is the foundation of a mature ninja."
"Zabuza and his team no longer have a conflict with us. On the contrary, they are now our teammates." Kakashi said, glancing at the silent Sasuke, secretly nodding, educating the two.
"Team... teammates?"
"How is that possible?!"
Naruto and Sakura exclaimed, unable to believe their ears.
Were changes this exciting?
"You two are far inferior to that brat named Sasuke."
Zabuza commented, glancing at Naruto and Sakura, striking them down coldly, his gaze shifting, full of killing intent, to Gato.
His fierce, bloodthirsty eyes made Gato step back, then fly into a rage out of shame.
"Quick, kill him for me!"
Seeing Gato's disgraceful display, Zabuza smiled grimly, gripping his KubikiribĹchĹ and accelerating rapidly.
"Kakashi, please do not participate in the upcoming battle. This is a battle between a rogue ninja and his employer," Zabuza said, passing Kakashi and the others, swinging his sword upward.
The samurai ronin who met him screamed, split in two, no match in a single blow.
"Hiss. So terrifying...Kakashi-sensei, are we really not going over there?"
Naruto asked, looking at the wailing ronin.
"Idiot. Why do something thankless While they fight, our best choice is to recover chakra and ensure fighting strength!"
Sasuke said, rolling his eyes, chiding, then sitting to recover stamina.
His scarlet Sharingan, however, was fixed on Zabuza, observing and copying his taijutsu for combat experience.
Zabuza, focused on Hidden Mist's assassination techniques, was clean and ruthless.
Sasuke wouldn't miss out.
"Naruto, Sasuke is right. Come here."
Kakashi agreed, calling out, preparing to check Naruto's seal secretly.
He was very satisfied with Sasuke's performance!
This guy didn't miss any opportunity to grow.
Meanwhile, as Sasuke and the others observed leisurely, Gato's side faced terror.
Dozens, even hundreds, of thugs attacked, but in less than three minutes, over thirty were killed.
This made Gato and the thugs hesitant and uneasy.
But the more they hesitated, the faster Zabuza's killing became!
Finally, after ten more were killed.
"Run!"
"This is a devil, a true demon!"
"Ninjas are too terrifying."
As one fled, the others' willpower collapsed, and they ran, throwing away armor and weapons, scrambling to boats or the sea.
"You bastards, wait for me!"
Gato cried, throwing away his cane, running.
But Zabuza, with his eyes on him, wouldn't let him go!
With a whoosh.
Zabuza appeared before Gato, cold killing intent erupting.
"Don't kill me... I'm your employer, if you kill me, no one will hire you again! You rogue ninjas, losing trust means death. I'll pay double, no... ten times the reward, continue the mission!"
Gato screamed, falling, his pants soiled.
He finally understood the 'Demon of the Hidden Mist, Zabuza'
"Ten times? Heh.. Indeed, rogue ninjas value reputation. A rogue ninja who kills his employer won't be hired again! But you forgot one thing. Employer betrayal is an exception, and you made the first move!"
Zabuza said, his eyes cold as blades, sneering, his KubikiribĹchĹ decapitating Gato in one stroke.
"I forgot to tell you. We rogue ninjas like employers like you who think they're smart. Only then can we take your wealth without qualms."
Zabuza said, looking at Gato's eyes wide in death, kicking him into the sea to feed the fish.
"You're using your Sharingan to copy my taijutsu. Kid, I heard you learned my Silent Killing technique? The Uchiha are terrifying."
"But this is a secret art of the Hidden Mist Village. Little Advice here, If you don't want to be hunted by Hidden Mist Anbu, don't use this casually, especially in front of Hidden Mist ninjas." Zabuza warned, looking at Sasuke's scarlet Sharingan, teasing with a sigh.
Sometimes, being too talented wasn't good!
[Detection of Zabuza's advice, triggering C-rank reward. Mission: Do not casually use Silent Killing. Reward: Ninja Art: Mist Body Flicker Technique.]
Sasuke's mouth twitched, hearing the notification.
Who would casually use a secret technique involving chakra bursts for taijutsu?
A free reward.
"You don't need to remind me, Zabuza."
Sasuke retorted casually, receiving the system reward.
This made Zabuza's expression stiffen, and he walked to Haku with a dark face.
"Kakashi, this mission ends here. If we meet again, I won't hold back," Zabuza said, helping the disoriented Haku, staring at Kakashi, delivering his final warning.
He couldn't let go of this failure.
"Of course, same here!" Kakashi said confidently, not taking Zabuza's threats to heart.
If there was a next time, Sasuke might fight Zabuza alone.
He wasn't afraid at all.
