Please, could you please consider the occasion? We're all ninjas living on the edge, not children...

Wait a minute, they seem to be just kids. Even the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is still a kid.

A deep sense of sorrow washed over me; I, Zabuza, had actually lost to such a group of children.

.........

"I haven't made a move yet, so I won't get involved. As for how to deal with the two of them... you three can figure it out yourselves."

Kakashi stepped aside, took out his "Make-Out Paradise" app, and began to browse through it.

"I didn't defeat them, so I have no right to deal with them."

Sasuke also stepped aside.

Since even the male god has said that, what can Sakura, who was just a bystander the whole time, say? She can only say that she feels the same way.

Kakashi originally wanted to test the students' thinking on how to deal with enemies, but seeing Sasuke and Sakura leave one after another, he put away the Icha Icha Paradise and sighed helplessly.

"Sasuke, Sakura, don't be so formal. You and Naruto are both members of Team 7. What Naruto defeats is the same as what you defeat... Tell me your thoughts."

"Just because Naruto defeated someone doesn't mean I can defeat them!"

Sasuke solemnly emphasized that he has his own pride and would never do something like stealing credit or stealing kills.

"Okay, I misspoke... I just wanted to hear your approach to this."

Sasuke pondered for a moment and said, "It doesn't matter, whether you kill me or let me go, it's fine."

Kakashi replied noncommittally, "I see... What about Sakura?"

Sakura tentatively suggested, "Their mission has already failed, so they pose no threat to us. Why don't we grant their wish..."

The simple wish of a young girl in the throes of first love is that lovers will eventually be united.

However, for a ninja, showing mercy to the enemy is highly inappropriate.

The incident involving Rin and Obito was largely due to Kakashi's arrogance and failure to finish off Obito immediately.

And now, Obito...

Kakashi sighed inwardly. Over the years, he and the other Anbu had searched the entire ninja world but had not been able to find any trace of Obito.

"Naruto, tell me your method."

.........

"Although you broke our agreement not to use ninjutsu, I am magnanimous... Zabuza, agree to two conditions, and I will spare your lives."

Naruto looked down at Zabuza with a calm and composed expression, seemingly not taking Zabuza seriously at all.

"You wretched brat, you underestimate me! Who do you think I am? I am Zabuza the Demon, not some cowardly coward..."

Zabuza was arrogant and unruly, constantly provoking Naruto and urging him to kill him quickly.

Naruto remained unmoved: "I know you're not afraid of death, but the one next to you..."

Bai Shaojian's tone was unfriendly: "You despicable bastard, don't even think about threatening Lord Zabuza with me. I will die with Lord Zabuza."

Naruto patiently explained, "Zabuza, love isn't about clinging on. True love is about letting go. Your lover might be willing to die with you, but if you truly love someone, you shouldn't let them die..."

Beside her, Sakura stared in disbelief. It was the first time she had realized that her teammate was actually a master of romance.

After a barrage of persuasive words, Zabuza was starting to waver.

His injuries were too severe to survive, but Bai was still young and shouldn't die here.

"Kid, state your terms first."

"Lord Zabuza, I won't..."

"Bai! You're not listening to me anymore?!"

"...Yes, Lord Zabuza."

Under Zabuza's stern gaze, Haku lowered his head, indicating his obedience.

Seeing this, Naruto smiled slightly. "First condition: tell me, is Haku male or female?"

To be honest, he had been observing for a long time but still couldn't figure out Bai's gender.

Kakashi, Sasuke, and Sakura all looked strange.

What kind of question is this? The answer is obviously female...

"A man!"

Instantly, the three of them stared at Zabuza and Haku with horrified expressions. "You...you two..."

Zabuza's face darkened: "What's wrong with that? Do you have any objections?"

"Ignore those vulgar people, Mr. Zabuza."

Naruto said with deep respect, "You did what a real man should do. You could say that in this world full of bonds, only you have bravely taken this step... If everyone else could do what you did, the ninja world would have been at peace long ago."

As he spoke, he squatted down, used the Palm Healing Technique, his palm emitting a soft green light, swept it in front of his eyes, and then pressed it against Zabuza's chest.

Zabuza recovered from his injuries very quickly.

"Thank you, thank you for saving Lord Zabuza."

With tears in his eyes, Haku bowed to Naruto in gratitude.

"Healing Palm Technique? When did Naruto learn the Healing Palm Technique?"

Kakashi's eyes were deep in thought. He realized... he didn't seem to know this student at all.

"Kid, what do you mean?"

Zabuza stood up, feeling his injuries completely healed, and looked puzzled.

Naruto solemnly declared, "The ninja world cannot lose you, just as the West cannot lose Jerusalem!"

Zabuza pondered for a long time, then could only shake his head.

"I don't understand what you're saying... Hurry up and state your second condition."

then……

Zabuza looked at Haku, and Haku looked at Zabuza. The two smiled knowingly.

Naruto shuddered at the sight. "So, I'm just an ordinary person after all."

He quickly said, "I originally wanted your ninjutsu, but it doesn't matter now. You guys go ahead and do what you need to do."

"No, I, Zabuza, don't want to owe you a favor... I can give you my ninjutsu, and I can give you the Executioner's Blade, anyway... I probably won't need it anymore."

After this ordeal, Zabuza had a complete change of heart. He no longer cared about being a ninja; all he wanted was to be with Haku.

However, some people disagreed.

"Zabuza, you can't give it to him!"

A clear, crisp female voice rang out, and everyone looked in the direction of the sound.

Then a beautiful woman appeared, with bright green eyes, long, wavy reddish-brown hair, a full figure, and wearing a blue strapless dress.

Behind her, a squad of Kirigakure ANBU followed, quickly surrounding Naruto and the others.

Mei Terumi, the Fifth Mizukage of Kirigakure, was a pioneer who lifted the Blood Mist policy, overthrew the Fourth Mizukage, and led Kirigakure towards openness.

Every day, apart from worrying about her own marriage, Mei Terumi devotes all her energy to restoring Kirigakure's vitality.

However, Obito was too ruthless and cruel, reducing the talented Kirigakure to a mere handful of weaklings.

No matter how hard Mei Terumi tried, she still felt powerless.

There are far too few capable people!

Under these circumstances, a special mission assignment was presented to the Water Shadow Building.

—Gado, a wealthy merchant from the Land of Waves, commissioned the Mist Ninja to assassinate Dazna, a bridge-building expert, at a high price.

The mission itself isn't worth paying attention to, but what is worth noting is the information Gado provided—Zabuza, a former member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, and an Ice Release ninja are currently in the Land of Waves.

Kado: You bastard Zabuza, I let you threaten and blackmail me, I'll just report you.
