"Don't behead your lord again!"
"You should take a good rest!"
Zabuza, who was recuperating somewhere, looked at Bai standing in front of him.
"Enough! Bai, get out of the way!"
"I won't just let this grudge go!"
"But... if you don't behead your lord, your injuries haven't fully recovered..."
"I don't care if I don't behead, I'll just raise the beheading knife," Zabuza said, his eyes turning ferocious.
At this point, there's no need to fully recover!
Unexpectedly, the ninjas that day were not sent by Kado, but Kakashi and others were still alive.
That meant the two guys who felt strong to him that day were gone.
But at the same time, Kakashi was also seriously injured, and another kid had even passed out.
This time was the best time to deal with Kakashi and the others.
Although doing this could be seen as taking advantage of others' weaknesses, Zabuza didn't care about that at all.
As long as the goal could be achieved, he didn't mind what methods he used.
However, Zabuza was also curious about who the two ninjas who would appear were.
But now, it was impossible to know.
"If you insist on going without beheading your lord again, then please allow me to take action this time!"
Hearing this, Zabuza hesitated for a moment.
"Alright!"
To be honest, if Sasuke wakes up, I really hope Bai can help him hold Sasuke for a while.
As long as Bai takes care of Kakashi, everything will be fine.
Although the kid's speed was fast, his attack power was a bit weak.
Not enough to kill him.
So just like last time, they would wait until Sasuke's Chakra ran out, then it would be his turn.
Furthermore, Zabuza had already figured out how to deal with Sasuke this time.
Although that little ghost was fast, if he couldn't find the target, there was nothing to be afraid of.
This time, Zabuza decided to preemptively strike.
He would use Water Style~ Mist Shinobi Technique.
He would use silent kills against both Sasuke and Kakashi.
As he moved toward where Sasuke and Kakashi were staying,
This time, Zabuza didn't make a rash move, but carefully investigated.
'Nobody?'
'Have these two fellows escaped?'
If they had escaped, it would be impossible for Kado and the others to have taken them away.
Did they abandon the mission?
Any ninja who abandons a mission is rejected by the village.
A ninja should never give up on a mission.
Unless both Kakashi and Sasuke were planning to become rebels, it would be strange to think of not killing them here.
And this time, Bai returned.
"Don't behead me again! I don't seem to see our assassination target this time!"
Didn't see the assassination target?
Has Kado disappeared?
Where could he be? Was he really taken away by those two people?
If they took him away, their mission to escort Kado back would be considered a failure!
And what's the point of taking Kado away? People can run, but the Kingdom of Waves can't.
As the two of them wondered,
Suddenly, they felt a strong presence.
It was coming from the bridge that still hadn't been built.
The two looked at each other and started walking toward the bridge.
At the same time, just to be safe, Zabuza released Water Style~ Mist Shinobi Technique.
Then he and Bai slowly approached the bridge.
When they reached the end of the bridge, it still wasn't finished.
The connection with the bridge on the opposite side hadn't been completed, and there was still a distance of about ten meters.
And from far away, Zabuza could feel Kado's aura, even without needing to look.
That guy was just across the bridge.
'Brought across the bridge!'
'What does this mean?'
Zabuza was a bit confused, but suddenly a flash of lightning struck.
Crackling~
For a moment, he didn't look at the thunder and lightning that burst across his face.
Fortunately, he dodged in time, or he would have been hit by the concentrated attack.
"Who?"
No need to ask again.
But there were footsteps in the distance.
At the same time, with the roar of thunder, flashes of lightning began flashing on Sasuke's body,
As he ran up and down.
Sasuke looked ahead.
"Water Style~ Mist Shinobi Technique, when I saw this thick fog, I guessed that you had come!"
"Since you're here, come out! Don't hide in the mist again!"
Sasuke's voice rang out, and Zabuza frowned.
He wouldn't show himself until Kakashi showed up.
"Don't worry, Mr. Kakashi has left. This time it's a battle between me and you!"
Leave?
Hatake Kakashi left this time?
What was he going to do?
"Kakashi entrusted you to me to deal with, but he himself is looking for our other two companions!"
"Why, as a mighty Mist Shinobi ghost, an elite-level Jōnin, do you dare not even come out and talk to a Konoha Genin kid?"
After Sasuke's words, Zabuza was indeed a little angry.
Carrying the beheading sword, he slowly walked out, and at the same time, the surrounding fog dissipated a lot.
"A Konoha Genin wants to block me, are you out of your mind!"
"What do you mean Kakashi asked you to deal with me, so you are worthy? A Konoha Genin!"
Seeing Zabuza's figure, Sasuke raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
"Not qualified? I don't know who it was, but I was almost killed last time!"
Bringing up the past made Zabuza's expression even uglier.
"You're asking for death... brat!"
"If Kakashi hadn't saved you last time, you would have been the nourishment for my beheading sword."
"Is there still a chance for you to talk nonsense here?"
Sasuke smiled and didn't get angry: "Then this time, no one else will disturb us. We can have a one-on-one..."
As he spoke, Sasuke felt another wave of Chakra.
"It seems that this time, it's not a one-on-one battle!"
Sasuke looked toward Shiro, who was about to approach him quietly.
Zabuza was a little surprised. "You can actually detect Bai's existence!"
"It seems that you, Konoha's Genin kid, are not so simple!"
"You're not just a kid from the Uchiha clan!"
Now that he was discovered, Bai stopped hiding and jumped out.
"If you don't want to behead your lord, just leave this brat to me!"
Hearing this, Zabuza waved his hand again. "No! I want to kill this brat with my own hands..."
