Chapter 22 Zabuza is resurrected!
"it's useless!"
Rin couldn't stand how happy the others were, and spoke loudly from the side.
"What?"
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Rin finally exploded.
"It's no use! No matter how hard you try, you can't defeat Gado! He's too powerful; all of you weaklings will be killed!"
After a fit of screaming and yelling, she ran away crying.
What did you say?
Hearing his efforts being rejected, Naruto became angry, but Kakashi stopped him in time.
"Please forgive that child; he has just gone through too much pain."
Tazuna recounted the story of Inari's stepfather, and everyone fell silent.
Even the noisiest Naruto was at a loss for words.
However, Itsuka Rin didn't feel anything. It wasn't that she lacked compassion, but rather that in the dreams of the demons, there were far more pitiful people than I was.
Even the demons themselves don't know who their parents are.
They have lived in the chaotic demon world since childhood. In order to save the demon world, they risked their lives to cross the Great Desert and arrive at Central Park.
Then, with Gato's help, they traveled alone through the world and fought against countless enemies.
Her repeated brushes with death had forged her into a resilient and unyielding mind, and she never backed down, even when facing the apostles.
Therefore, having inherited everything from the demons in her dreams, Rin Itsuka's heart has become extremely resilient.
However, Naruto was clearly moved by what Inari had experienced, so he chased after him and used his persuasive skills.
However, his persuasive skills are not yet fully developed, so despite talking for a long time, he only managed to slightly change Irene's opinion of him.
Perhaps because he was too tired from training, and because he chatted with Isaac too late yesterday, the rest of the team was nowhere to be found when Naruto came over.
"Where are they? Where are Kakashi-sensei, Sasuke, and Rin?"
Naruto excitedly ran out and asked loudly.
"They went to the bridge. Seeing that you stayed up too late, Kakashi-sensei said you can rest today."
Tsunami was doing laundry when she heard Naruto's voice and turned around to explain to him.
"Damn it! Why didn't you just call me!"
Naruto only heard the first sentence, and while taking off his pajamas, he turned around and ran back to his bedroom.
He changed into his usual clothes and headed towards the bridge.
At this moment, the three members of Class 7 had arrived at the bridge with Tazuna and were surprised to find that all the workers were lying on the ground.
"What, what's going on?"
Thinking they were all dead, Tazner collapsed to his knees in despair.
"Don't worry, they're all still alive, they've just been knocked unconscious."
Kakashi checked it over, then looked up at Tazuna and said...
However, judging from the way these people fell to the ground, they seemed to have been knocked unconscious without any resistance, so the person who did it must have been very strong.
As Kakashi was thinking, a cloud of mist suddenly spread across the bridge. Sensing the chakra within the mist, Kakashi knew that Zabuza had arrived!
"The enemy is coming!"
He immediately issued a warning, then stood back-to-back behind Dazner.
Rin Itsuka and Sasuke stood on either side of them, observing the left and right sides. This was a formation they had learned in advance.
"Hmph, Kakashi, let's continue our battle. This time, I won't fall for your little tricks again!"
Zabuza appeared in the mist with a cold smile, and Haku, wearing a mask, also appeared and stood next to Zabuza.
"As expected, you are Zabuza's man."
Kakashi said in an icy tone.
"Hmph, it's too late now that you know. Prepare to die!"
As he spoke, Zabuza formed hand seals and released ten water clones, which then attacked the group.
"Don't move, leave everything to me!"
Sasuke had just finished training and was brimming with confidence. He drew his kunai and moved swiftly, eliminating all his water clones in an instant.
"Oh? You've made quite a bit of progress, Bai. Looks like you've met your match."
"It seems so. I shall not kill you, Lord Zabuza."
Bai responded softly.
"I'll deal with you, you bastard!"
Sasuke, having defeated the water clone, felt the sun had finally come out and moved towards Haku.
Haku also rushed forward, and after a brief exchange, their kunai clashed together.
Secret Technique: Thousand Kill Water Flight!
Under Kakashi and Sasuke's astonished gazes, Haku formed a hand seal, and the water on the bridge transformed into senbon needles that flew towards Sasuke from all directions.
At the critical moment, Sasuke used his tree-climbing skills to attach chakra to his feet, increasing his movement speed, and suddenly jumped into the air.
Just as Haku was surprised that his ninjutsu had missed, several shuriken rained down from the sky, and he hurriedly jumped back to dodge them.
"You're too slow!"
The next moment, Sasuke appeared behind Haku, said a word to remind Haku, and then swept his kunai across.
Haku ducked to dodge the kunai, but he couldn't dodge Sasuke's kick and was sent flying.
"This guy is even faster than Bai?"
Zabuza was surprised by Sasuke's progress.
"Ah, he's my lovely subordinate."
Kakashi still looked listless, and what he said was equally unpleasant.
"Hmph, do you really think he won?"
"What?"
Kakashi was taken aback when he heard Zabuza's words. Could it be that Haku was hiding his strength?
"Bai, although you don't want to kill people, if this continues, our mission will fail."
"I'm sorry, Lord Zabuza."
Bai got up, formed a hand seal, and a chill emanated from his body.
Secret Technique: Magic Mirror Ice Crystal!
The water on the bridge surface suddenly floated up, turning into an ice mirror that hovered around Sasuke. The next moment, Haku walked into the mirror.
"Oh no!"
Kakashi knew something was wrong and was about to rescue Sasuke, but Zabuza stopped him in time.
"Don't rush, your opponent is me!"
Kakashi looked at Sasuke, who was being tortured by Haku in the Magic Mirror Ice Crystal, and then at Tazuna. He was torn and didn't know if Rin Itsuka could stop Zabuza.
If he ignores Zabuza's objections and tries to save Sasuke, and if Rin is no match for Zabuza, not only will Tazuna die, but he will also lose his comrade once again.
Just as Kakashi was at a loss, a shuriken flew over and accidentally hit Haku, who was moving at high speed in the magic mirror ice crystal.
Bai was attacked, his body deviated from its intended trajectory, and he fell out of the magic mirror ice crystal.
"Sasuke! I'm here to save you!"
A huge cloud of smoke billowed out, and Naruto suddenly jumped out.
'What is that idiot doing?'
Sasuke and Kakashi stared at Naruto speechlessly. "Wouldn't it have been better to hide and launch a sneak attack? Why did you have to come out and make yourself noticed?"
Rin Itsuka smiled, which perfectly matched Naruto's silly personality.
Another annoying brat has arrived!
Zabuza suddenly turned around and threw several shuriken at Naruto.
Because Kakashi and Naruto were on either side of Zabuza, they had no time to help. Just as he was getting worried, Haku threw a few senbon needles to block the shuriken.
