"Mr. Dazner, we will be here soon. It seems that Cardo has not noticed us."
The young man rowing the boat looked at the bridge opening in front of him and breathed a sigh of relief.
You must know that he left the island and went to sea privately without Kado's permission, especially if he was picked up by Dazna who was repairing the bridge. If he was discovered, he would probably not see the sun tomorrow.
"Thank you for your hard work!"
Dazna raised his hat and his expression became serious.
Li Chuan, who heard the conversation between the two, had a flash of light in his eyes.
Because he knew that he would soon face two jounin-level ninjas, Demon Zabuza and Haku, who had the blood inheritance limit.
The specific strength of a Jonin can be seen from his daily training with Chiriku. This is why he came to the Land of Waves with Kakashi and the others.
Without the help of Kakashi's power, he couldn't handle Zabuza and Haku alone.
After passing through the bridge hole, the fog dissipated, and a very beautiful island gradually appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
The only drawback is that the houses on the island look relatively shabby, and most of the residents on the shore have numb expressions and are very thin.
"The place I live is still some distance away from here. Everyone, please follow me!"
After landing, Dazna led everyone through the town at the dock and walked toward the interior of the island along a dirt road shrouded in dense forests.
"We can't let Sasuke be in the limelight anymore!"
Naruto, who was walking in front of Li Chuan, looked at Sasuke who had his hands in his pockets and looked like he was pulling. He immediately ran forward and started pretending to look around, and even threw a few kunai from time to time.
He was so anxious to show off his attitude, how could he deceive everyone? Sakura was so angry that she immediately yelled.
However, at this time, Li Chuan was secretly vigilant.
Because of the keen perception he had developed as a warrior, he was vaguely aware of a murderous sight that had just passed over his body.
However, he could not determine the specific location of the sight.
"There!"
At this moment, Li Chuan noticed something strange because Naruto threw the kunai and hit him accidentally. He then pushed aside the dense bushes on the roadside and cautiously stepped forward to check.
Naruto's kunai was right in the middle of the root of a big tree, and a little white rabbit was shivering in fear under the root of the tree.
"Did you use the Substitute Technique to dodge it?"
Li Chuan secretly worked up his energy and paid attention to what was going on around him, but on the surface he pulled out a kunai and threw it to Naruto, picked up the shivering little rabbit and walked out with a smile.
Kakashi, who was standing over there, suddenly stared at Li Chuan when he saw the rabbit in his hand.
Because of his rich experience, he has already seen that this is not an ordinary rabbit, but a rabbit specially raised by ninjas in order to confuse the enemy into using the Substitution Technique.
Over there, Sakura saw a cute rabbit that Naruto almost killed and growled at it again.
"What a cute little bunny."
Li Chuan walked back to Dazna, deliberately raised the little rabbit in his hand, and then said:
"You said...Bunny is so cute...should it be braised or steamed?"
Over there, Zabuza, who had just used the rabbit prepared in advance as a substitute, squatted on a large tree with lush leaves and poked his head out of the dark.
The monk below who was observing the man who was not within the scope of the intelligence was suddenly stunned by Li Chuan's extremely contrasting words, and his originally perfect concealment also revealed a flaw.
And just this little flaw has made Li Chuan and Kakashi, who was also suspicious over there, discover his traces.
"If you're exposed, then go straight to it!"
Knowing that his aura was confused just now, it was very likely that it had been noticed by the famous Konoha clone ninja Kakashi below. Zabuza no longer hid, drew out the decapitating sword from behind, and threw it at the target Tazuna.
past.
"Everyone, get down quickly!"
At first glance, they saw the large, exaggerated beheading knife flying towards them like a meat grinder, and the attack range actually included all of them.
Kakashi immediately took the most effortless and safe response.
If you block the decapitating sword for everyone, you may be attacked by ninjas hiding in the dark. If you don't take action, with the speed and force of the flying sword, Naruto and others can't stop it at all.
And as long as everyone lies down, they can perfectly dodge the attack of the sword, and can also be alert to the sneak attack ninja to counterattack at any time.
Regarding Kakashi's improvised solution, Li Chuan also sighed secretly. He was worthy of being an elite jounin who had experienced countless missions and battles.
However, he did not lie down like Sasuke and others, but stared, holding his breath and concentrating at the moment when the decapitating sword was about to strike in front of him.
He leaned back and lowered his waist, raised the Zen staff in his hand like lightning, and accurately inserted it into the round hole in front of the beheading sword. Then, with the strength of a horse as steady as a mountain, he forcibly stopped the castration of the beheading sword and hardened it.
He was pulled back alive.
With Kakashi watching, he was not afraid of Zabuza taking the opportunity to make a sneak attack, so he could naturally take the opportunity to seize Zabuza's weapon first.
"What?"
Seeing that Li Chuan could actually stop the big sword with the Zen staff in his hand, Kakashi over there couldn't help but be a little surprised.
You know, with the speed and power of the big knife just now, if you want to stop it like Li Chuan, especially to prevent it from flying away, insert it accurately into the round hole in the knife.
It has extremely strong requirements for strength, speed and eyesight.
This young monk from the Temple of Fire must have considerable attainments, at least in terms of physical skills.
Also, the Fire Temple is famous for its physical skills, and its current host, Chiriku, is the same as Asuma in the village. He was once the guardian of the daimyo. As his disciple Kawa, it is understandable that he has such strength.
On the other side, Zabuza just threw out the decapitating sword in his hand, and immediately jumped towards the big tree where the sword landed.
Kakashi, Konoha's clone ninja, has a great reputation and cannot be easily knocked down by his sword swing. He will most likely make everyone lie down to dodge while secretly being vigilant.
So this attack is just a small test, and by the way, there is a strong enough appearance.
Ninja battles test all aspects, including ninjutsu, taijutsu, illusions, combat strategies, chakra levels, and psychological games.
Especially for experts who are evenly matched, the outcome of the battle may change just because of a small factor.
The reason for Zabuza to make a sufficiently impressive appearance is not to show off, but to suppress the opponent mentally and emotionally in order to create an advantage for the subsequent battle.
However, when he used the teleportation technique to appear where his decapitating sword should have appeared, he found that there was nothing there.
"Where's my knife? Where's my big knife?"
Zabuza landed on the branch of a big tree, with a confused look on his face, and felt like he fell to the ground in an instant.
