When the water mist dissipated, Naruto and the others saw that their teacher was surrounded by a layer of water, seemingly defeated.
Cold sweats lingered on, and they all expressed that Kakashi was too unreliable, what about the teacher? Should this be the case?
In fact, it is not that Kakashi cannot escape, he is just testing his apprentice's mentality when facing a strong person. Yes, it is really like this.
Naruto and Sasuke were under great pressure. They asked the only girl to protect the client, and two boys stepped forward to challenge Zabuza.
But when they were fighting, they didn't realize that the space on the battlefield was already occupied by other ninjas. A large number of Kirigakure ninjas had surrounded the lake. The leader of the team was Terumi Mei, the fifth generation Mizukage of Kirigakure Village.
The reason why the Country of Waves was able to attract a master like Mei Terumi this time was actually because Kirigakure Village was preparing to control the Country of Waves under the rule of the Kingdom of Water and become a vassal state of the Kingdom of Water. Terumi Mei had already made an agreement with Cardo.
Cardo also agreed, as long as he can make money, he is willing to do it.
The Country of Waves was originally a vassal state of the Country of Water. It was just because Kirigakure Village was severely damaged a few years ago that they had no power to intervene. Now they have finally recovered. Although they have lost their tailed beasts, they have cultivated a group of ninjas in the past few years.
came out, now they want to regain the trust of the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Water, and the first task is to turn the Kingdom of Waves into a vassal state again.
It's just that now the Country of Waves is actually controlled by Cardo, so the condition of agreement given by Cardo is to prevent the Country of Waves from building a bridge. That's why the Kirigakure Village ninjas accepted the mission to assassinate Tazuna.
Of course Terumi Mei went out personally not to kill people, but to invite Zabuza back to the village.
The Fourth Mizukage was controlled by Obito and did many terrible things. At that time, Zabuza prepared to assassinate the Mizukage for the sake of the village, but failed to escape. Now Terumi Mei is trying to bring the Seven Kirigakure Ninja Swordsmen back to the world.
Before Kirigakure Village became "Blood Mist Village", Kirigakure Village had a tradition that as long as the ninja who inherited the seven special weapons in the village would inherit the name of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, these seven names are almost the same as those of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.
Kirigakure Village has a long history, and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen are definitely the heroes of Kirigakure Village.
However, times have changed, especially during the time when Obito was taking revenge on the Kirigakure Village, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen escaped with death and the village they guarded turned into a purgatory, which was simply the most tragic situation for a hero.
But now the times have changed again. Since the modified psychic beast attacked Kirigakure Village, although the losses were great, the fourth generation Mizukage was also defeated. A new order has been established. The new fifth generation Terumi Mei hopes to be able to run away.
She found all the outstanding ninjas, and she even left the village as a Mizukage just to show her sincerity.
When Uchiha Obito controlled the Mizukage and turned the Kirigakure Village into a gladiatorial arena, it was all out of personal grudge. Because when Kakashi killed Lin in the third battle, it was because they were kidnapped by the Kirikage. Obito wanted to make
They feel the same grief.
Kirigakure Village has indeed suffered great sorrow, but the people of Kirigakure Village have not sunk. There are many hopeful people like Terumi Mei who have come forward to build the village well.
Naruto and Sasuke performed very well and rescued Kakashi by making a fuss in the east and attacking in the west. They knew that their abilities were not enough, so they started the war on the premise of saving Kakashi from the beginning.
Their performance impressed Kakashi. They were able to make the right choices in a short period of time. These two young people may really be born to be ninjas.
"Zabuza, second round." Kakashi stood on the water and challenged Zabuza.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
But it didn't work out today. The ninjas of Kirigakure Village jumped out from around them one by one.
"Stop, that's it!" Terumi Mei personally stopped the fight: "The Fifth Mizukage Terumi Mei of Kirigakure Village, you two will call it a truce!" The voice was loud and unyielding.
Terumi Mei is a tall and beautiful lady, not inferior to Senju Tsunade at all. Standing between Kakashi and Zabuza, her aura instantly overshadowed the two powerful men in the world.
Kakashi and Zabuza were both stunned. In the past, Kirigakure Village was like a black hole with only one entrance and no exit. This time, not only were there so many Kirigakure ninjas, but even the Mizukage appeared?!
****At first glance, Terumi Mei's long bangs cover one eye, but even if only her left eye is exposed, she still makes people feel amazingly imposing. She is the Mizukage, no one doubts it.
"Tch, has Kirigakure Village fallen to the point where even Mizukage has to go out to take on missions?" It had been many years since he left his hometown, and Zabuza didn't know what was going on in Kirigakure Village now.
"Momochi Zabuza, my coming out this time is not on a mission, but to find outstanding ninjas who have left Kirigakure Village. I hope you can go back." Terumi Mei got straight to the point: "The village is different from before, and the fourth generation is dead.
It has been a long time, and now we are all working hard to restore the glory of the village. As one of the few surviving ninjas among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, you should dedicate your strength to the village."
Zabuza showed a disdainful expression and went back? It was just his own sad place. It was there that he became a ghost, a monster with no friends except the decapitating sword in his hand. Zabuza might not be able to compete with Kirigakure.
I'm against it, but it's absolutely impossible to go back.
"You'd better find someone else. Now I'm not a ninja from any village. I'm Ronin Zabuza." Zabuza said and looked at Tazuna: "I remember that there are ninjas in your Kirigakure Village who accepted the responsibility to kill Tatsuna.
Please accept the task, but don’t compete with me, I’m homeless and I’m just counting on this task to make money.”
Kakashi thought to himself that it was too bad, the ninjas who appeared now seemed to be on the opposite side, and the female Mizukage obviously wanted something from Zabuza, so she might just give Tazuna a favor.
Although the other party is a woman, she can sit in the Mizukage's position. I'm afraid her strength is far above hers. What should I do? Kakashi thought to himself that this mission to meet the Mizukage is already the highest level mission, and he will be charged for a C-level mission.
Too little.
"What are you going to do? I will never let you hurt uncle." Seeing that Zabuza was going to attack Tazuna, Naruto immediately stood in front of Tazuna, as if to say that if he wanted to kill someone, he should do it first.
Kill him.
"Get out of the way, kid." Zabuza didn't even want to kill Naruto right away, because he remembered that nightmare day and night, when they graduated from school and entered the mode of killing each other. They were about the same age as Naruto, and each of them was like Naruto.
A young life was ruined in his own hands, and Zabuza didn't want this at all. Terumi Mei's appearance made those memories more real. In addition, surrounded by Kirigakure ninjas, Zabuza was also under surveillance in this way.
Let's kill our former friends.
But today Zabuza wanted to make his own choice. He didn't want to kill a boy of Naruto's age: "Get out!"
However, Naruto will not leave. He is the protagonist, so how can the protagonist leave?
