Zabuza looked at Kimimaro, who was in an offensive stance before him, then at Haku, who was looking at him with admiration, and finally at Masahiko, who was putting on a serious act. He felt a bit of a headache.
"What 'Seven Ninja Swordsn of the Mist'? What 'Zabuza the Swordless'? Where did that title co from?"
He was confident that if the Seven Ninja Swordsn still existed, he should be able to get his hands on one of the great swords. But now, only two of the seven swords remained in the Mist Village; where was his share?
Slightly irritated, he pointed his long sword at Masahiko.
His attention was entirely focused on Masahiko. Earlier, he hadn't noticed the trajectory of Masahiko's "Body Flicker" at all.
As for Kimimaro, although he was from the Kaguya clan, he was still young and not considered a threat.
Being pointed at by a long sword, Masahiko imdiately beca displeased. "What are you pointing at?"
"Do not disrespect God!" Kimimaro directly charged forward, bone spur in hand.
"God? Are you crazy?"
Zabuza raised his sword to chop.
Whether in terms of accuracy or strength, Kimimaro was currently far inferior to Zabuza.
The bone blade and long sword clashed, and Kimimaro flew backward. He was caught by Masahiko and placed back on the ground.
Having lost face in front of God, Kimimaro felt very ashad. As he steadied himself, bone spurs gradually protruded from his body.
"The Kaguya clan still has an awakened clansman?" Zabuza looked surprised, then glanced at Masahiko again. "Hand this child over to ."
"Pay up!"
The atmosphere instantly beca extrely awkward.
Masahiko scratched his head. He didn't know how that sentence just blurted out... Looking at Kimimaro's look of disbelief, he suddenly felt a little guilty.
"Even if you pay , I won't hand him over to you!"
Ahem, saved it.
"That's right, I am God, and God does not abandon his believers!"
"God!" Kimimaro's face was full of emotion.
Zabuza: "..."
"Since that's the case, I'll just have to chop you down first, you pretender."
"Water Release: Hiding in Mist Technique!"
"Mr. Zabuza."
Accompanied by Haku's worried cry, their vision was gradually obscured by the thick mist.
"The throat..."
"Wait!"
Seeing that Zabuza was about to recite his lines for the Silent Killing Technique, Masahiko hurriedly interrupted.
"Now you want to beg for rcy..."
"Who wants to beg for rcy? Give a second to form seals."
"Water Release: Hiding in Mist Technique!"
Zabuza: "..."
The mist beca even thicker. Originally, Zabuza relied on sensing chakra within the mist he released to locate his targets. But with Masahiko's chakra interspersed in it, he now couldn't sense anything at all.
Looking at the thick mist where you couldn't even see your toes when you stretched out your hand, Masahiko nodded in satisfaction.
"Mr. Zabuza!" Haku shouted anxiously.
"No one can see anyone, this is fair."
Masahiko said this while grabbing hold of Kimimaro.
Zabuza had never seen anyone break his Silent Killing Technique in this manner.
"God? What do we do now?" Kimimaro asked.
Masahiko scratched his head; he was also quite troubled about what to do.
Having successfully abducted Kimimaro, and now running into Haku, he thought about abducting him too while he was at it.
But Zabuza was a problem.
The "tool-like relationship" between these two was very tricky and not easy to separate.
"Take Zabuza back too?" Masahiko was sowhat reluctant. Abducting two kids was one thing, but he really didn't want to take in a twenty-sothing delinquent youth.
While he was pondering, a strong gust of wind ca from behind. Zabuza had finally fumbled his way to Masahiko.
Kimimaro reacted and hurriedly parried the long sword with his bone spur.
"God! Watch out!"
Kimimaro bore the heavy force and slid backward, but didn't crash into Masahiko.
Masahiko had already vanished from his spot and appeared beside Haku.
"With the Silent Killing Technique nullified, Kimimaro should be able to hold out in this thick mist for two minutes."
The sound of clashing weapons ca continuously from a short distance away, but Masahiko focused his attention on Haku in front of him.
Pondering for a mont, he revealed a gentle smile. "Little girl, do you believe in God? I am God..."
Haku, holding a few ice senbon, was on full alert and about to speak when Masahiko interrupted.
"Stop, I know you are a boy, no need to explain." Masahiko sighed. He wasn't Naruto; how could he not be able to tell male from female?
But looking at that little face opposite him, which could only be described as 'beautiful'... he really was a bit reluctant to admit it.
"I don't believe in God."
Masahiko scratched his head. How did Orochimaru abduct kids? I urgently need a 'Kidnapping Manual' right now.
"Co with , and I can give aning to your life?" Masahiko felt a slight headache; these words just didn't sound reliable no matter what.
Haku didn't even know how to reply.
Fortunately, Kimimaro flew over and was caught by Masahiko again, breaking the awkward atmosphere.
Zabuza also walked over. He looked at Masahiko, then at Haku in front of him, slightly hesitant.
"Who exactly are you?!"
"Mr. Zabuza!" Haku ran over, and Masahiko didn't stop him.
He could see that when Haku ran to Zabuza's side, Zabuza subtly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Troubleso..." Masahiko sighed. It seed Haku hadn't just t Zabuza yesterday, and Zabuza didn't completely treat him just as a tool. This made it even harder to separate them.
"Zabuza, do you believe in God?"
Zabuza: "..."
The thick mist dissipated as Masahiko canceled the Hiding in Mist Technique.
"You really don't believe, huh?" Masahiko looked regretful.
"Forget it, let's go, Kimimaro." Masahiko took the slightly injured Kimimaro by the hand, turned, and left.
Zabuza didn't pursue. He wasn't confident he could win, and moreover, Masahiko hadn't taken the opportunity to attack Haku just now.
As the two walked further away, a voice suddenly reached Zabuza's ears: "I am the Great Elder of the Uzumaki clan, Masahiko Uzumaki. If you have nowhere to go, you can co find in the Land of Whirlpools. Although I don't think much of you, the child beside you has great potential. If you join the Land of Whirlpools, I can give the Executioner's Blade to you."
Zabuza was stunned for a long while, then his brows knit tightly together... wait, his forehead wrinkled tightly together; he no longer had eyebrows.
"Mr... Zabuza?" Haku called him softly.
"Tch, is his personality as unreliable as the rumors say? Being looked down upon, huh..."
...
"God, I'm sorry, I couldn't defeat him." Kimimaro was very ashad.
Masahiko shook his head. "How old are you? You will be able to defeat him sooner or later, and it won't be too late."
Although Kaguya clansn who awakened Shikotsumyaku had short lifespans, once they reached adulthood, they were guaranteed to be Jonin, and among the strongest tier of Jonin at that. As for Kimimaro, his potential went beyond even that.
"Kekkei Genkai disease... I wonder if my dical ninjutsu and pharmacy can cure it." Masahiko narrowed his eyes slightly, then froze.
In his field of vision ahead, a familiar figure appeared.
Before Masahiko could speak, Kimimaro rapidly charged forward, only to be kicked back with a single strike—an instant KO.
"Wait, you two, I am not a Mist Village ninja." A familiar hoarse voice.
Masahiko smiled, thinking to himself, "Finally, you're here. Good thing I didn't give up... Orochimaru."
