16: Chapter 16 Zabuza the Demon, the Sharingan's First Battle"Let's abandon the mission, Kakashi-sensei!" Sakura Haruno's voice trembled uncontrollably, almost swallowed by the thick fog."The enemy is the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist!We're no match for them!We'll die!"
Uchiha Sasuke didn't speak, but all the muscles in his body were tense, and one hand was already on his ninja tool pouch, revealing a wariness that was a mixture of excitement and tension.
Dazner sobered up a bit.He held his head, his body trembling violently, and kept muttering, "It's over, it's all over."
Kakashi ignored the chaos in the group, simply put the small orange book back into his pocket, and then turned to the three trembling genin.
"Continue the mission." His decision was simple and direct.
"But…" Sakura Haruno wanted to argue.
"This is your choice," Kakashi interrupted her."Now, listen carefully.In this dense fog, sight and hearing will be severely impaired.You must learn to use your bodies to sense the flow of chakra and the source of killing intent.Raise your attention to the limit and don't miss any detail."
Naruto nodded earnestly, adopting the demeanor of a well-behaved student who was paying close attention in class.
Only he could see that a huge red warning was flashing wildly on the system panel.
[Ding!Extremely high concentration of [Killing Intent] x10000 detected from Zabuza Momochi!]
That pure, condensed killing intent, almost tangible, was located at a cold coordinate point on the water not far ahead.
"As expected of the Demon of the Hidden Mist." Naruto remained completely unmoved."This emotion is of truly high quality."
"Hiding and dodging, that's not like you at all, Sharingan Kakashi."
A husky, magnetic male voice came from all directions, as if the thick fog itself was speaking.
The next second, a tall figure suddenly appeared on a tree branch not far away.
Instead of standing on the tree branch, he stood in a posture that defied the laws of physics, with his feet on the hilt of the huge cleaver on his shoulder, looking down at the crowd.
Wuyin wore his headband askew, his face was wrapped in bandages, and only his sharp and cold eyes were visible.
Zabuza Momochi.
"Hand over that old man to me, and I can give you a quick death," he said in a statement of fact.
[Ding!You have received 1200 units of ultimate [Fear] from Sakura Haruno!]
[Ding!You have received 1500 units of the ultimate [Despair] from Tazuna!]
Kakashi did not answer.
He simply raised his hand slowly and pushed up the headband that had been covering his left eye.
A scarlet background with three jet-black magatama.
Sharingan.
"Oh?So you're finally willing to show off your treasure?" Zabuza's tone carried a hint of mockery."It's an honor to see the legendary Sharingan."
Before he finished speaking, his figure had already disappeared from the tree.
"Water Release: Mist Concealment Technique!"
The surrounding mist instantly became denser, even taking on a viscous texture, and the aura of chakra was completely disrupted.
"Watch out!" Kakashi shouted, shielding the three genin behind him.
Zabuza's figure appeared on the water's surface like a ghost, his hands rapidly forming hand seals.
"Water Release: Water Prison Technique!"
Whoosh!
The water beneath Kakashi's feet suddenly surged up, transforming into a giant water sphere that completely enveloped him!
Kakashi tried to break free, but the density of the water prison was far greater than that of ordinary water, and every move he made was met with tremendous resistance, making it impossible for him to break through.
"It's over." Zabuza maintained the water prison with one hand, while forming hand seals again with the other."Now, I'll use my water clones to deal with you brats."
A stream of water gathered around him and quickly transformed into another Zabuza Momochi, exactly the same as him.
"Run!" Kakashi shouted urgently from inside the water dungeon."Take Mr.Tazuna and get out of here!Don't worry about me!That's an order!"
Sakura Haruno and Sasuke were both stunned.
The invincible Jonin teacher was defeated in one move.
The shock of this fact almost brought their thinking to a standstill.
[Ding!You have received 800 "Shocking" items from Uchiha Sasuke!]
[Ding!You have received 1000 units of "Despair" from Sakura Haruno!]
In the midst of this deathly silence, Naruto Uzumaki took a step forward.
He didn't look at the water clone that exuded a terrifying aura, but instead turned his head to look at the stiff-bodied Uchiha Sasuke.
"We are not deserters."
His words were clear and exceptionally loud in the frozen air.
"Didn't you want to surpass that man?"
Naruto continued calmly.
"If you can't even defeat a Jonin's clone, how will you take revenge?"
These words pierced Sasuke's heart with deadly precision.
revenge.
That man's face.
The night of annihilation.
All the humiliation and resentment were completely ignited at this moment.
[Ding!You have received 1200 units of "Unwillingness" from Uchiha Sasuke!]
[Ding!You have received 1500 [Battle Spirit] from Uchiha Sasuke!]
"Shut up!You loser!" Sasuke growled, his crimson Sharingan activating for the first time, the two tomoe slowly rotating within."I don't need you to teach me how to do things!"
He charged out suddenly, his target Zabuza's water clone!
"Oh?A brat with some backbone." The water clone sneered, easily deflecting the kunai that Sasuke was swinging.
Their physical techniques instantly intertwined.
Sasuke's movements were swift and sharp, completely in line with the elite style of the Uchiha school, but he was constantly restrained by Zabuza's experienced water clones.
Bang!
The water clone kicked Sasuke in the stomach, sending him flying.
"Too slow."
Just as his water clone was about to give chase, a series of explosions rang out behind him.
"Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!""
A dozen or so Naruto Uzumaki rushed out from all directions, fearlessly attacking the water clones.
"Sasuke!" One of the Narutos rushed to Sasuke's side and handed him a huge Fuma Shuriken."Use that!"
Sasuke understood instantly.
He jumped up and hurled the huge shuriken with all his might!
"Wind Demon Shuriken: Shadow Windmill!"
The shuriken spun rapidly in the air, drawing a sharp arc as it flew towards the water clone.
However, the water clone simply raised one hand dismissively.
Clang!
He actually managed to catch the rapidly spinning shuriken with his palm!
"A little devil's trick."
With a casual flick of his wrist, he threw the giant shuriken back, turning several of Naruto's shadow clones into white smoke.
The tactics were easily countered.
Sasuke's offensive was completely thwarted.
The water clone flashed and appeared in front of Sasuke, delivering a chop to the back of his neck.
Sasuke groaned and his body went limp as he collapsed.
"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura Haruno screamed in despair.
Without pausing, he turned around, swept his sword horizontally, and shattered all the remaining shadow clones, turning them into a cloud of smoke.
The chaotic battlefield was cleared away in an instant.
Only Kakashi, who was trapped, Sasuke, Sakura Haruno, and Tazuna remained.
And standing in front of Tazuna, is Naruto himself, who has been "protecting" the client since the beginning.
"Next, it's your turn, little dwarf." The water clone, carrying a decapitation sword, walked towards him step by step.
Naruto's face finally revealed the same extreme fear and panic as Sakura Haruno's.
Like a wild beast driven to the brink, he suddenly let out a roar that was hard to understand, picked up a fist-sized stone from the ground, and rushed toward Zabuza's water clone without regard for anything else.
It was a suicidal attack that was completely haphazard, driven purely by a surge of bloodlust.
"A pointless struggle."
The water clone disdainfully raised the large sword in its hand, preparing to cleave the foolish brat in two along with the stone in his hand.
However, just as Naruto approached, the arm he was wielding, which was holding a stone, drew a strange arc.
He did not smash the water clone that was so close at hand.
The stone flew out of his hand, over the water clone's shoulder, and at a precise angle, flew towards the giant water sphere that had trapped Kakashi in the distance.
"Sasuke!"
Naruto shouted.
