Chapter 23 Naruto's Outburst
"white?"
"Lord Zabuza, please hand this person over to me!"
Haku's tone was somewhat forceful.
"Really? Alright then. But if you remain so naive, you really could die!"
"Please rest assured, Lord Zabuza, I have already made up my mind!"
Bai turned to look at Sasuke as he spoke.
"Sasuke, I'm here to save you~"
Naruto casually walked into the sunglasses-covered ice palace and squatted down next to Sasuke.
"You big idiot!"
Sasuke finally broke down.
"Hey! I'm here to rescue you, what kind of attitude is this?"
When Naruto saw that Sasuke not only didn't thank him, but also called him an idiot, he got angry too.
The white shell didn't miss the opportunity and re-entered the ice crystal.
The battle continued, and this time, instead of Sasuke suffering alone, he and Naruto became two unfortunate brothers.
We can't wait any longer!
Kakashi's expression changed, and he prepared to attack Zabuza.
Zabuza, a veteran of countless battles, immediately noticed Kakashi's change, jumped back first, and then released the Hidden Mist Technique.
Whoosh!
The next moment, Zabuza suddenly appeared next to Tazuna and slashed at him with his sword.
This old man is the mission objective. Once he is eliminated, the battle with Kakashi will be over, and Haku will no longer have to struggle with whether or not to kill.
However, Itsuka Rin wouldn't stand by and watch him hurt the people she was protecting, so she turned around and struck him with a palm.
Zabuza had no choice but to give up the chance to kill Tazuna and instead turned his Executioner's Blade to slash at Rin Itsuka.
Itsuka Rin dodged the blade with a sliding step and struck the blade of the Executioner's Blade from bottom to top with her palm.
Zabuza felt an upward force coming from the Executioner's Blade. In order to prevent the blade from flying away, he had to grip the hilt tightly and take a few steps back to dissipate the force.
Sky Strike!
However, since Itsuka Rin had no weapon, she used the Falling Flower Palm technique instead, which worked quite well.
The next moment, Kakashi instantly appeared behind Zabuza, his kunai slicing across Zabuza's shoulder, leaving a trail of blood.
This was only because Zabuza managed to twist his body in time; otherwise, the blow would have been enough to slit his neck or even cut off his head.
boom!
A powerful burst of chakra suddenly erupted, and Haku was shocked to see Naruto standing in front of Sasuke.
I'm going to kill you!
Naruto's eyes had turned into vertical pupils, and his body was covered in a layer of red chakra that formed the shape of a fox's head.
Just now, Sasuke activated his Sharingan. Although he couldn't keep up with Haku's movements completely, he was able to react quickly enough to Haku's attack.
However, in order to protect Naruto who was unable to react in time, Sasuke actually used his body to block the senbon needles for him.
Seeing Sasuke lying in front of him, his body covered in senbon needles, Naruto suddenly erupted, drawing out the power of the Nine-Tails.
'What kind of power is this? It even healed my injuries?'
Haku tried to throw a senbon needle at Naruto, but it was knocked away by the chakra cloak before it could get close.
'If ranged attacks don't work, then melee combat!'
Thinking of this, Haku used the high speed granted by the magic mirror's ice crystals to rush towards Naruto, forcefully thrusting the senbon needles in his hand at him.
However, Naruto was faster than he had imagined, dodging the attack just as the senbon needles were about to strike.
'Oh no! I have to get back into the mirror quickly!'
Haku was startled and quickly ran to the nearest mirror.
His speed depends entirely on the mirror's enhancement; once he leaves the mirror, his speed will decrease significantly.
But Naruto didn't give him a chance. The next moment, he grabbed Haku and punched him in the face.
Bai's body was sent flying, crashing through the ice mirror and slamming heavily onto the bridge. The mask, which had been marked by the shuriken, was completely shattered by this punch.
On the other side, Rin Itsuka, Kakashi, and Zabuza all sensed Naruto's outburst and decided to stop delaying and finish the battle quickly.
Zabuza then jumped into the thick fog, forming hand seals, preparing to unleash his signature Water Release ninjutsu.
Kakashi then used a summoning jutsu to summon the Eight Ninja Dogs.
The ninja dog sniffed the kunai, then used Earth Release to appear next to Zabuza, who was forming hand seals, and jumped out to subdue him.
"What?"
Zabuza was taken aback when his hand seals were interrupted and he was completely unable to move.
"I don't have time to waste with you, Zabuza. Your actions are too dangerous, so die!"
As Kakashi spoke, he formed hand seals and unleashed his signature technique, Chidori: Lightning Blade!
On the other side, upon seeing Haku's face, Naruto's consciousness returned, and he did not unleash a fatal blow on Haku.
Haku, on the other hand, constantly taught Naruto how to deal with enemies.
These are the words Haku usually uses to comfort himself, taking advantage of his soft-hearted nature, and now they are having some effect on Naruto as well.
However, just as Naruto made up his mind to kill Haku with a kunai, Haku suddenly stopped him.
"I'm sorry, I can't die here!"
As he spoke, he used the Body Flicker Technique to block Zabuza's path.
Pfft!
Kakashi plunged his hand into Haku's chest, and Haku used his last bit of strength to tighten his muscles, preventing Kakashi from pulling his hand out.
"Well done, Haku!"
Overwhelmed by the pain of losing Haku, Zabuza broke free from the ninja dogs' restraints and swung his Executioner's Blade down at Kakashi and Haku together.
Kakashi's hand was trapped inside Haku's body, so he could only jump backwards with him. The ninja dog's fighting power was not strong, and it also canceled the summoning.
Just as Zabuza was about to continue his attack, Rin Itsuka rushed forward.
Although watching the live-action version is very interesting, the mission still needs to be completed. She silently prepared herself when Kakashi used the Lightning Blade.
Thanks to the elementalist's passive movement casting ability, Rin Itsuka was able to quickly move while charging up her skills, unleashing a spiral Nen field at Zabuza.
Zabuza, who was already determined to die, did not dodge and let the skills hit him.
Although Rin Itsuka's skills are not very powerful when she uses other characters' skills, Spiral Nen Field is a level 40 offensive skill with considerable damage. Since most ninjas are high-attack, low-defense glass cannons, Zabuza simply couldn't withstand this attack. His body spun out and he died before landing.
Thump! Thump!
With two consecutive thuds, Zabuza's body fell to the ground, and Haku slid off Kakashi's arm and onto the ground.
"it's over?"
When Tazna saw that all those who came to kill him were dead, his legs went weak and he sat down on the ground.
[Mission complete! Congratulations, host, you have acquired advanced elemental control techniques!]
As the system's voice came through, Rin felt a large amount of knowledge flooding her mind, all related to the use and control of elements.
However, now is not the time to read, because Kado has already led a group of people to surround them.
"Useless fellow!"
Just then, a fat man suddenly walked over with a group of warriors.
"The strongest rogue ninja, and he was taken care of just like that? Well, that saved us a lot of money."
"Hey, who are you? Stop babbling on and on, it's annoying!"
Naruto asked impatiently, "This guy is too noisy. Sasuke needs to rest!"
