Chapter 36

Finishing telling Kakashi and everybody his true background.

"But oh well! That's not your concern! You won't be there to see me daughter and ten year old grandson cry all like their hearts are breaking," Tazuna said to them.

Faking a non caring laughter at himself. Joking to them all.

"But…"Kakashi wanted to interject.

"Oh! And you won't mind if my daughter vows eternal hatred of all the ninja of your village as she lives her life alone! It is not your fault!" Tazuna joked brightly.

Leaves Team 7 suddenly the feeling of a frosty mountain placed onto their back.

"…"

'This is the worst mission for hire of all time!' Is the thought that goes onto everyone's mind at the moment.

"Well, I suppose it can't be helped," sighed Kakashi, "We'll continue protecting you until you return to your country."

…

The four of them sits on this boat that rides through a bridge. On the opposite side begin to show a hint of the light from the world outside.

With the small boat swimming closer assume was able to catch a glimpse of the small foggy village.

It brings a homely feeling with the villages all sticking together closely. With their humble wooden rooftops.

Getting off the deck Sasuke used his sharingan to watch the surrounding closely. Observing every small detail that enters his eyesight.

As they kept walking even Kakashi started taking caution. He stands there casually with readiness.

Throwing a kunai in that direction. Cutting through the bushy tree.

There was a sudden sound that come from above the tree. It was subtle thought Sasuke was still able to catch hold of it.

Noticing what is happening Kakashi shouted to them all, "Quick take cover!"

Using his hand with strength Sasuke was able to push away Sakura and Naruto from the flying long weapon turning at quick speed to them.

"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura was surprised as she found him pushing her away. Then her heart beats loudly as she caught the shadow of the flying attack.

"!!"Kakashi who was bowing low on the ground noticed that Sasuke was still standing in front of the direction where the weapon is coming.

For some reason Kakashi found this student of his always to be ready and prepared at all times like with the assignation not too long ago.

In their eyes this weapon seems to be coming at great speed. Though with his sharingan it was really coming towards him slowly.

Lifting up his leg slowly Sasuke instantly entered a certain new state. With his eyes directed with focus.

"Black Leg Style!" With his eyes watching the turning long sword he kicked his leg upwards hitting the weapon with limitless speed.

Bam

The group on the floor watches with shock seeing Sasuke sending the long sword back where it came. Shooting like a booming rocket.

The enemy watches as his weapon flies off into the distance cutting off trees as it lands away.

'There goes my blade…that damn brat!!' His heart had a tinge of anger knowing he would not be able to get it back now.

"I'll kill you damn brat!!" Zabuza shouts with anger since Sasuke ruined his would-be cool entrance.

Kakashi was able to get in front first kicking Zabuza. Finding it to be only a water clone. "Huh!?"

While his real body does a kick towards Kakashi's chest sending him flying across to the water.

'This water is so heavy!' Thought Kakashi as she tries to lift himself up from the water.

"Gullible fool!" Said Zabuza as he performs a set of hand signs, 'Art of the Water Prison.'

'Damn!!' Kakashi got wrapped around by water that forms into a ball shape around him. Floating inside the water prison.

Another water clone lifts from the near shore of the seawater. Appearing before the team.

'Naruto!' Sasuke looked over to Naruto exchanging glances. Knowing what the other is already thinking in their mind.

Naruto created dozens of shadow clones rushing at Zabuza. Though all of them were tossed flying away in the air.

From Naruto's backpack a weapon was tossed towards him. Sasuke throws that large shuriken at Zabuza's true form.

Fwoom

While the shuriken was able to be easily caught by him. Another shuriken was thrown from his eyes' blind corner.

Jumping his legs upward Zabuza dodge the attack from the shuriken. Which turned into Naruto's true form.

Throwing a kunai at Zabuza causing him to lift his hand from the water prison that traps Kakashi.

Afterwards, Kakashi was release from that water prism. Copying Zabuza's moves to defeat him.

Then Haku appeared throwing needles into Zabuza's neck. Creating a fake death.

Kakashi went up to the body to check the body to see if its dead.

Sasuke stepped up in front of Kakashi facing Haku who was standing on a branch of the tree.

"Zabuza is still alive," Sasuke said with a solemn voice.

"Huh?"

What Sasuke said caught everybody off guard including Haku who has a surprised expression through his mask.

"Those senbon acupuncture needles are just to fake his death," Sasuke said while giving a calm smile. "Am I right?"

'Who is he?' Before Haku could come close to attacking Sasuke it was already too late.

As Sasuke performed a set of hand signs with quick reflexive speed, "Fire Style-Fireball Jutsu!"

A great ball of fire bursted forth from Sasuke's mouth shooting towards the body of the 'dead' Zabuza. Burning the body till its aflame turning it a black corpse.

"No!!!"

"Don't worry Kakashi-sensei I'll take care fo the rest. You can take a nap," Sasuke said to Kakashi who suddenly find himself in a doze from using the sharingan too much.

In his eyesight there was only Haku running towards Sasuke in front.

As his eyelids shut tightly, dozing off into sleep. Knowing he could trust the three of them to take care of the rest.

In front of Sasuke Haku threw what seemed like needles that pierces through the air.
