Chapter 720 Zabuza: Long time no see, Kakashi!
Since learning that the Akatsuki organization was targeting the Tailed Beasts, the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade, has taken the Three-Tails sealing incident extremely seriously.

Because of the incident involving the Fifth Kazekage, Gaara, the relationship between Sunagakure and Sunagakure has become so close that they are practically inseparable.

Meanwhile, Kirigakure, which is also allied with Konoha, has had little cooperation or contact with them in the past two years.

Therefore, after becoming the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade believed it was necessary to strengthen the friendly relationship between the two great ninja villages, Kirigakure, and the sealing of the Three-Tails was a good opportunity for this.

For this purpose, Tsunade also sent the rebuilt Team 7, as well as Hinata Hyuga and others from Team 8.

The Jonin leading the team, besides Kakashi, included Yamato and Shizune, who served as his right-hand man.

Shizune, Hinata, Sakura, and Ino are responsible for maintaining the Four Symbols Seal and sealing the Three-Tails. The others are responsible for suppressing the Three-Tails if it resists and for guarding against any possible unexpected situations.

When Kakashi, who was leading the group, saw Mei Terumi who came to greet them, he also showed a flattered expression.

After all, as the Fifth Mizukage, regardless of Mei Terumi's strength, her status and position represent the entire Hidden Mist Village.

The fact that they have come here specifically to welcome them is already a great honor for Konoha.

"It's been a long time, Lord Mizukage and Mr. Seiya. I didn't expect Kirigakure to take this matter so seriously, that you two would choose to take action personally."

The Fifth Mizukage, Mei Terumi, and the Hidden Mist Anbu captain, Seiya Kaguya, might be quite unfamiliar with Yamato and Shizune, who had never met them before. However, Kakashi had experienced the Konoha Crush, so he had met these two people once before.

Mei Terumi, the Fifth Mizukage, was a female ninja who became a Kage shortly before Tsunade. She mastered two bloodline limits: Lava Release and Boil Release.

During the Konoha Crush, his Water Release ninjutsu was on par with the Second Hokage.

Not to mention Kaguya Seiya, the captain of the Hidden Mist Anbu. As a member of the Kaguya clan with the Shikotsumyaku bloodline, he nearly destroyed the entire Hidden Leaf Village during his battle with the resurrected First Hokage in Konoha.

To put it bluntly, Kakashi even believed that this captain of the Hidden Mist Village's Anbu was probably already at the pinnacle of the ninja world in terms of sheer strength.

Furthermore, if Kakashi remembers correctly, Kaguya Seiya, like the First and Second Hokage, was in the state of Edo Tensei (reanimation).

But when Kakashi saw Seiya again at this moment, he was shocked to find that Kaguya Seiya had actually broken free from the Edo Tensei state!
Impure World Reincarnation is a forbidden technique that grants the dead a false life. Although they can act like the living, they are still essentially dead.

But now Kaguya Seiya is clearly breathing and has a heartbeat, doesn't that mean that he has truly been resurrected!
"Among the tailed beasts, the Three-Tailed Isobu is relatively docile, but it is still a tailed beast after all."

"The Hokage dispatched so many excellent Konoha ninja to seal the Three-Tails. As the main beneficiaries of this effort, it would be unreasonable for Kirigakure to shirk their responsibilities."

Upon hearing Mei Terumi's words, Kakashi nodded and repeatedly stated that Konoha and Kirigakure were allies and that helping each other was only right.

And soon after, he introduced the combat personnel to Mei Terumi.

"This is Kato Shizune, not only Tsunade's disciple but also Tsunade's secretary. She is in charge of the sealing team this time."

As for me, I'm in charge of the action team. This guy is also a Konoha Jonin, Yamato, and there are also Chunin Uzumaki Naruto, Aburame Shino, Inuzuka Kiba..."

After listening to Kakashi's introduction, Mei Terumi politely smiled and said, "Konoha Village truly lives up to its reputation as a cradle of geniuses. It remains as full of talented people as ever."

Those who came to carry out this mission were either descendants of famous teachers or members of renowned ninja clans. Our Hidden Mist Village has very limited manpower, so there are only a few of us this time. I won't go into too much detail about Seiya and me.

This is Ringo Ameyuri, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist and a genius of Lightning Release.

As for this one, he is also…

Before Mei Terumi could finish speaking, Zabuza, who had been standing behind her, stepped forward, removed his hood, and sneered at Kakashi, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth.

"It's been a long time, Kakashi."

Upon seeing Zabuza Momochi, Kakashi's face showed surprise, and Naruto and Sakura, standing behind him, exclaimed in shock, "Zabuza the Demon! What are you doing here!"

Hearing Sakura and Naruto's exclamations, Zabuza also looked at Naruto and Sakura, and quickly saw his former self reflected in them.

"Those kids from the Land of Waves back then? I never imagined they'd grow up so much."

"Weren't there three brats before? So that Uchiha brat is dead?"

Zabuza still has a pretty deep impression of the kids in Team 7.

When Zabuza mentioned Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura couldn't help but show a look of sadness on their faces.

"Zabuza, what's wrong with your eyes? Why do you have Sharingan?!"

Compared to Naruto and Sakura, who were instantly disarmed at the mention of Sasuke, Kakashi noticed Zabuza's crimson eyes, which were actually Sharingan with three tomoe!

The Uchiha clan has been exterminated for nearly ten years, and the Sharingan has almost disappeared from the ninja world. Now that Zabuza has first mentioned Sasuke and now revealed his Sharingan, Kakashi naturally immediately misunderstood.

"Kakashi Hatake, don't get excited. I can assure you that Zabuza's Sharingan did not come from Sasuke Uchiha or Itachi Uchiha."

"Because I put these eyes on him; they're like trophies I acquired in the past."

Seiya's words undoubtedly relieved Kakashi and the others, but looking at Zabuza's Sharingan, Kakashi still felt uneasy.

"I will report this matter truthfully to the Hokage."

The Uchiha clan, once a powerful clan in Konoha, now has its bloodline limit in the hands of Kirigakure. Both morally and logically, he needs to report this to the Konoha leadership.

“It’s alright. Seiya also said that these Sharingan are his spoils of war, just like how Konoha picked up our Kirigakure’s ninja swords before. What is gained on the battlefield naturally belongs to the victor.”

"These Sharingan?" Kakashi grasped the key point in Mei Terumi's words and asked with a somewhat surprised expression.

Seeing Kakashi's confusion, Mei Terumi didn't explain much. Instead, she turned to look behind her and said, "Ameyuri, take off your hood too."

When Ringo Ameyuri took off her hood and looked at the Konoha members with a blank expression, Kakashi and the others were shocked to discover that she actually had another pair of Sharingan with three tomoe!
