However, when Zabuza saw clearly what color the "blood" was, he was shocked, because it was actually water.
In other words, Kakashi also used a water clone.
Zabuza was shocked: "When?"
"From the very beginning!"
"Wow? No wonder he's the Copy Ninja."
The two were deadlocked for a time.
Chapter 39 Victory! The Growing Shadow
The thick sea fog enveloped the entire coastline as if it were a physical substance, reducing visibility to less than three meters.
Kakashi's Sharingan drew three crimson streaks in the mist, the three tomoe spinning wildly to capture every minute fluctuation of chakra.
The crisp sound of metal clashing echoed continuously from the mist, and sparks from the clash of kunai and guillotine swords appeared intermittently.
Kakashi suddenly turned to the side, the blade of the Executioner's Blade grazing his headband and lifting a few strands of silver hair.
He quickly counterattacked, but lacking the means to strike directly at the throat, he was blocked by the opponent's blade.
The two parted ways immediately after their initial contact and disappeared back into the thick fog.
"teacher..."
Naruto clenched his fist, and five shadow clones surrounded Tazuna in the center.
Sasuke's Sharingan kept spinning, but he could only catch blurry afterimages.
Sakura felt a deep sense of loss as she watched Naruto and Sasuke's retreating figures.
In the event of combat, she can offer nothing but theoretical knowledge.
This was the first time she felt that it didn't matter whether she was in the team or not.
"This can't go on."
At this moment, Sasuke gritted his teeth and said, "We have to do something."
Although Kakashi can still hold his own against his opponent, Kakashi's energy expenditure is significantly higher than his opponent's.
Once their strength is completely exhausted, they will all be nothing more than meat on a cutting board.
Suddenly, Naruto's eyes lit up: "That's right! Kakashi-sensei used Wind Release to disperse the mist earlier!"
He quickly formed hand seals: "Although it quickly gathered again, if the wind continues..."
"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"
A violent stream of air erupted from Naruto's mouth, like an invisible giant hand tearing through the thick fog.
The fog was forcefully blown open, revealing the figures of two people fighting not far away.
"Well done, Naruto!"
Kakashi, whose vision had suddenly become clear, quickly spotted Naruto unleashing a ninjutsu in the distance.
Kakashi quickly seized the opportunity, his Sharingan locking onto Zabuza's position, and he fired three shuriken with precision.
Zabuza was forced to retreat, swinging his Executioner's Blade in a circle to knock down all the shuriken.
But this retreat completely exposed him to the public eye.
"My turn!"
Sasuke's Sharingan glowed slightly.
He swiftly threw six special shuriken, each with an almost transparent steel wire attached to its end.
"Little tricks."
Zabuza sneered and easily dodged the attack.
However, just as he was preparing to counterattack, Sasuke suddenly pulled the wire taut, then formed hand seals and bit the wire in his mouth: "Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!"
The blazing fire dragon spread along the steel wire, instantly forming six walls of fire that blocked Zabuza's retreat.
The intense heat of the flames caused the surrounding seawater to evaporate, creating a white mist.
"You wretched brat!"
Feeling the intense heat around him, Zabuza roared and rapidly formed hand seals: "Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
A giant water dragon rose from the sea and rushed straight towards Naruto and his two companions.
"The same tricks won't work on me."
Kakashi's voice suddenly rang out.
His hand seals were faster than Zabuza's, and his Water Dragon Bullet struck first despite being launched later.
Two water dragons collided in mid-air, turning into a torrential downpour.
"That damn Kakashi!"
Seeing this, Zabuza formed hand seals again, and at the same time, Kakashi followed suit and formed hand seals as well.
"Want to copy my techniques? What a pointless approach..."
However, Zabuza froze as he spoke.
Because Kakashi's hand seals are faster than his own, it seems he already knows what technique he's going to use.
"Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!"
While Zabuza was still in a daze, Kakashi had already completed all the hand seals.
A colossal wave appeared out of nowhere and crashed down on Zabuza with overwhelming force.
This move is faster and stronger than the ninjutsu Zabuza wanted to use!
"What?!"
Zabuza only had time to raise his Executioner's Blade for defense before being swept away by the giant wave and crashing heavily onto the distant reef.
Blood spilled from the corner of his mouth. He struggled to get up, only to find Kakashi's kunai pressed against his throat.
"it's over."
Kakashi's Sharingan coldly stared at him: "Who sent you? What other plans does Gato have?"
"You think I would..."
Just as Zabuza was about to speak, several senbon needles flew over and pierced through Zabuza's throat.
Zabuza's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe he had been killed.
He collapsed to the ground, lifeless, with a look of resentment in his eyes.
At this moment, everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a white-haired boy wearing a fox mask who had appeared on the big tree behind them at some point.
"Zabuza Momochi has been killed. I apologize for any inconvenience caused." The boy's voice was cold, but very polite.
At this moment, Kakashi crouched down and felt Zabuza's pulse, and had to admit: "He is indeed dead."
Immediately, the masked boy appeared beside Zabuza in a flash: "Then, Zabuza's corpse is mine!"
After saying that, he disappeared from everyone's sight with Zabuza's corpse.
With Zabuza's death, the sea fog maintained by the Hidden Mist Technique finally dissipated completely.
At this moment, the crimson sunset dyed the sea surface blood-red.
Kakashi gazed thoughtfully in the direction where the Anbu had disappeared, the tomoe in his Sharingan slowly rotating.
Sakura was checking everyone's injuries when she suddenly noticed Kakashi's gaze and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Kakashi-sensei?"
"That secret service..."
Before Kakashi could finish speaking, Sasuke frowned and said, "That's strange, isn't it?"
Naruto was completely confused: "What are you talking about?"
Kakashi said, "For the Anbu, the disposal of a corpse should be done on the spot, but that person took the corpse away."
Sasuke added, "So that person wasn't an Anbu member at all."
Naruto was shocked: "Then what were you doing just now...?"
Kakashi shook his head: "We don't know how many of them there are. If we rashly stop them, we'll be the ones in danger."
Naruto suddenly realized: "That's why I let them go, right?"
Sasuke was quite satisfied with Naruto's performance: "You're not too stupid, you're the worst student."
However, Sasuke's words ignited Naruto's heart like a fire. He rolled up his sleeves, ready to fight Sasuke: "What did you say, you arrogant Sasuke!"
Sakura quickly stepped between the two, saying, "Anyway, we've finally completed our mission."
Tazuna lit his pipe, his fingers trembling. "Now you understand why that bridge absolutely had to be built, right? Gato could even hire ninjas of that caliber..."
These people have experienced this firsthand and understand it deeply now.
Inside the sealed space, the Nine-Tails suddenly perked up its ears: "That masked kid's seal is a bit strange..."
Minato seemed thoughtful: "The last hand seal he formed was for medical ninjutsu."
Madara's Sharingan gleamed slightly: "This is getting more and more interesting."
Chapter 40 Tazner's Grandson
After confirming that it was safe to be around, Kakashi pulled his headband down again and then slung his backpack over his shoulder.
"Alright everyone, if there's nothing else, let's continue..."
However, as soon as Kakashi took a step, everything suddenly went black before his eyes, and he fell straight forward.
With a muffled thud, the renowned Copy Ninja fell face-first into the mud in an extremely undignified manner.
"Kakashi-sensei!" Naruto's shout startled the birds in the tree.
"Let me see!" Little
