Ch. 53. Zabuza who dare not show his face. [2]

At the same time, two more of the three clones Zabuza summoned were killed by Mizuki.

　　At this time, Mizuki looked pale, looked sluggish, and was a little unsteady on his feet.

　　But even so, Zabuza is still cautious, and until now his body has been hiding underwater without showing up.

　　Mizuki was a little doubtful of his acting skills:

- "Am I not acting realistic enough?"

　　Seeing that Sasuke and the other four had walked out of the thick fog, Mizuki once again used the explosive tag to change his form and kill Zabuza's last water clone.

　　Then dragging his "tired" body, he staggered towards Sasuke and the others.

　　Even so, Zabuza still didn't come out of the water.

　　Mizuki was really speechless:

- "This is too cautious!"

　　Soon, he caught up with the four of them and fell to the ground with a thud.

　　Naruto and Sasuke hurried over and helped Mizuki up one on the left and the other on the right:

- "Mizuki-Sensei, how are you?"

　　Mizuki:

- "It's okay, I just consumed too much chakra."

　　Sasuke asked:

- "Where's Zabuza, has it been solved?"

　　Mizuki shook his head:

- "He was too cautious. He kept using his water clone to pretend to attack. I didn't know where he was hiding. Even if I ran out of chakra, he didn't dare to show his face."

　　Sakura:

- "Then, will he catch up?"

　　Mizuki smiled and said:

- "He's just a coward, he doesn't dare to chase me. Besides, I'm just showing off to him that I'm exhausted of chakra. In fact, I still have some chakra left, which can be used three times."

　　Tazuna:

- "Then don't worry!"

　　Mizuki:

- "Let's go to Mr. Tazuna's house. I need to take a good rest."

　　The five people left quickly along the road, and Mizuki had a faint smile on his lips.

　　After the five people walked away, a man walked out from behind a tree on the roadside, wearing an ANBU mask from the Kirigakure Village.

　　After taking a look at the direction where Mizuki and others left, the man turned back and quickly came to the river:

- "Zabuza-sama!"

　　Zabuza rose from the water and stood on the water:

- "How long will you wear this mask, Haku?"

　　Haku took off his mask, revealing a prosperous and beautiful face.

　　Unfortunately, it's a boy...

　　Zabuza asked:

- "Have they left?"

　　Haku nodded:

- "Let's go. The chunin named Mizuki had excessive chakra consumption and was being helped to walk. I overheard on the side and he said that she was in disguise and she still had three attacks left."

　　Zabuza sneered:

- "I'm just telling you. He has the ability to perceive. If you were hiding aside, he would have discovered you long ago."

　　Haku:

- "I know, but he didn't do anything to me, which means that his chakra is indeed exhausted."

　　Zabuza:

- "Don't be careless. His ability is too weird. Combined with the explosive tag's, he has the ability to kill with one hit. This is why I have never dared to attack with my body."

- "Obviously he is a chunin, but he is more dangerous than most of the jonin I have faced before."

　　Haku asked:

- "Since it's dangerous, it's better to give up on Gato's commission."

　　Zabuza yelled, interrupting his words:

- "Haku!"

- "The money given by Gato is very generous. We need this money, so we can't give it up. When the time comes, you and I will take action together."

- "But we can't take the initiative and let Gato's warriors rush in front and consume his chakra with human lives."

- "When his chakra is exhausted, there will be no threat."

- "Next time, he will die in my hands."

　　Mizuki and his party soon arrived at Tazuna's house.

　　Mizuki:

- "Mr. Tazuna, when do you plan to start building the bridge?"

　　Tazuna:

- "It will take me one day to gather the old guys and two days to prepare the wood. It is tentatively planned to start building the bridge in three days."

　　Mizuki nodded and looked at Naruto and the others:

- "In the past three days, you will practice by yourself nearby."

　　Naruto asked:

- "What has Mizuki-Sensei been doing these three days?"

　　Mizuki:

- "I can also practice. I have an idea for a ninjutsu."

　　Naruto asked curiously:

- "What ninjutsu is it? Is it powerful?"

　　Sakura and Sasuke also looked curious.

　　Mizuki smiled and said:

- "That is the ninjutsu developed by the Fourth Hokage. It is very strong and cruel!"

- "Well, when I succeed in practicing, I will find an opportunity to teach you."

　　It was still early, so Mizuki went to the market and bought a lot of balloons and rubber balls.

　　Mizuki:

- "[Rasengan], I've been waiting for a long time."

　　In the village, with ANBU surveillance and Sandaime's [Telescope Technique], he did not dare to practice the [Rasengan].

　　But now, there is no such worry.

　　Mizuki:

- "Although there are a few annoying guys secretly following from Konoha to here, their purpose is to protect Naruto and Sasuke."

- "When I practice, I am separated from Naruto and the others, so I don't have to worry about being discovered."

- "As for the [Substition Technique: Displacement], just expose it. It will happen sooner or later anyway."

...

　　At this time, Konoha Village, Hokage's office.

　　Third Hokage murmured:

- "A ninjutsu that can instantly change places with people, combined with the explosive tag's, no one dares to show his face even if he doesn't zap."

- "No wonder!"

- "He is just a chunin with ordinary qualifications. How can he develop such a powerful space-time ninjutsu that is comparable to the [Flying Thunder God]?"

- "Did he deceive me about Chakra Controlling Pill?"

- "Or maybe he got other things in Uzushio Village?"
