"These things are better left unsaid. Kakashi-sensei definitely knows. As for you little brats, you're not old enough yet."
Kong had an inscrutable expression.
Sakura scoffed, "You talk like you're so old. You're just a little kid too, and you're Sasuke's brother."
Sasuke glanced at Sora, but he really couldn't see any younger brother in Sora. He always acted like a big shot, he really deserved a beating.
Sasuke's idea was approved by everyone, including Tazuna, and Ku had unknowingly become deserted by everyone.
"Haha, that must be what the narrator said, it has nothing to do with you guys," Kong said.
Kong Da made up his mind that when he got the chance, he would definitely let everyone taste the effects of his newly developed enhanced smoke bomb, guaranteeing them an experience of unparalleled pleasure.
Kakashi was somewhat surprised; he had witnessed the power of smoke bombs before, but he hadn't expected them to be able to be improved upon.
The group of six unknowingly arrived at the riverbank, preparing to take a boat to the Land of Waves.
At this moment, outside Konoha Village, Asuma's squad had just left the village.
Ino looked around curiously and asked, "Asuma-sensei, what's all this mystery about? What kind of mission is it this time?"
"Heading to the Land of Waves to support Kakashi. I heard that the enemy this time is Zabuza, the rogue ninja from Kirigakure. The Hokage is worried about the safety of the rest of the team."
[In just two days, Asuma had already forgotten about Uchiha's free meal.]
Shikamaru glanced at Asuma, whose previously normal expression immediately darkened.
The mission has already been accepted; it's too late to back out now. We have no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it.
"Remember, when you see Uchiha Sora, don't mention anything about food. Sora is too cunning; you'll fall into his trap if you're not careful."
Asuma wanted to see if Sora could still get a free meal, even with his prior preparations.
Shikamaru shook his head and said, "Asuma-sensei, how can we prevent this kind of thing? The most important thing now is to figure out how to deal with Zabuza. We need to meet up with Kakashi-sensei before we can discuss it."
Asuma nodded to himself, thankfully there was a highly intelligent ninja from the Nara clan like Shikamaru, otherwise he might have been racking his brains.
On the vast sea, a small boat moves slowly forward, with a light mist spreading around it, as if draping the sea surface with a mysterious veil.
“Apart from Zabuza, Gato’s subordinates are all a bunch of rabble and not difficult to deal with. With Kakashi-sensei holding Zabuza back, we can take care of Gato and the Land of Waves mission can be completed easily.”
Kong glanced at the four of them and quickly formulated a battle plan.
[Ku seems to underestimate Zabuza's subordinates; underestimating your opponent will come at a price.]
A slight smile appeared on his face. "It seems Zabuza's subordinates are no ordinary people."
Although the narrator was not under Kong's control, he did not reveal Kong's secrets. He did not believe that the narrator would not know the secret of his time travel.
[Of course, he's a ninja with an ice shield bloodline limit, and his strength is considerable.]
Kakashi frowned inwardly. Zabuza alone was already a challenge, and now there was another ninja with a bloodline limit. This mission was going to be troublesome.
Naruto, like a curious child, asked, "Teacher, what is a bloodline limit?"
Kakashi pondered for a moment and said, "The techniques that appear after the nature transformation of two chakras is combined, such as wind and water forming ice release, and wind and fire forming scorch release, are usually more powerful than single jutsu."
Another type is the mutation of human organs. The Byakugan of the Hyuga clan in Konoha and the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan are both examples of organ mutations, and are also a type of bloodline limit.
Chapter Twenty-Eight: Zabuza Appears
[Sasuke is amazing, he has a bloodline limit so early. Sakura is swooning, she almost wants to swallow Sasuke whole.]
Sasuke shifted slightly, silently creating a small distance, but unfortunately the boat wasn't very big, so even with the movement, they were still very close.
In the distance, a large bridge can be vaguely seen spanning the sea through the hazy mist.
Kong stared intently at the distant bridge, speechless.
The Land of Waves, a country without ninjas, with impoverished people and no modern machinery, actually built a bridge across the sea.
Moreover, if it weren't for Kado's obstruction, it would probably be built by now.
"This is your bridge."
Tazuna nodded and said, "That's right. Gato has monopolized the entire Land of Waves by relying on shipping and gangs. As long as we connect the islands with bridges, the shipping companies will no longer be able to exploit the people of the Land of Waves."
[Kū feels Tazuna is too naive. The Land of Waves has no defense whatsoever, and Gato is a world-renowned tycoon.]
[Right now, Konoha ninjas are helping Tazuna hold off Gato. Once the Konoha ninjas retreat, the Land of Waves will be like a juicy cake exposed to everyone, and a few explosive tags will be enough to make the bridge collapse.]
[Unless Gato dies, or the Land of Waves develops its own armed forces, this situation will continue indefinitely.]
Tazna's expression immediately turned grim. Sora was right; simply building a bridge was only a temporary solution, not a permanent one. The root of the problem, Kado, remained.
Tazuna looked at Kakashi and said, "Konoha must help us. Without Konoha, the bridge will probably collapse soon."
Or it could be occupied by Gato, and then the Land of Waves would return to what it was before.
The most despairing thing in the world is when hope arrives only to be suddenly shattered. The only way for the weak to survive is to attach themselves to the strong.
Kakashi frowned and said, "I need to report to the Hokage before I can decide whether it is our duty to deal with the ninjas who are obstructing the bridge construction."
However, assassinating Cado is not within the scope of our mission.
Kongdao: "The narrator is right. The only way for the weak to survive is to attach themselves to the strong. Otherwise, if one Kado is eliminated, another will appear."
Kakashi gave a signal to the air, making it clear: don't interfere in other countries' politics; these are not things the ninja village should worry about.
Tazuna nodded and said, "I understand what you mean, kid Sora. Once the bridge is built, I will ask to see the Daimyo and explain things clearly."
Tazuna decided to persuade the Daimyo to form an alliance with the Land of Fire, as only in this way could they gain the protection of Konoha; otherwise, the people of the Land of Waves would face wave after wave of suffering.
The small boat slowly glided through the thin mist, and the magnificent bridge came into view.
Passing through the bridge arch, a paradise-like scene comes into view.
"So beautiful," Sakura murmured unconsciously.
Sora nodded. "It's really good. Once the bridge is built, we can develop tourism. With such abundant water resources, the Land of Waves should be a wealthy country. How can it be so poor?"
Even if they could only go out to sea to fish, the people of the Land of Waves would still live a good life and wouldn't be in such poverty as they are now.
Tazuna's expression darkened as he said, "It's also because of Gato that the Land of Waves used to be quite wealthy, with many fishermen living a prosperous life by selling sea fish."
Since Kado appeared, many fishermen have perished at sea, and fishing boats have been destroyed. Even the one we are on was secretly hidden.
The people of the Land of Waves can only travel to other islands by taking Kado's ships, at a high cost.
"That Gato is awful! Kakashi-sensei, we must defeat Gato and save the people of the Land of Waves."
Tazuna found the blond-haired guy in front of him increasingly pleasing to the eye. He had initially thought the guy was just a short, stocky fellow who was only there to make up the numbers, but it turned out he had a heart full of justice.
Naruto secretly compared his height with others; he was the shortest of the four in the team. That old man, if it weren't for pitying him, he would have beaten him up long ago.
"Haha, old man Tazuna, that's what the narrator said, it has nothing to do with me."
[Somewhat surprisingly, Naruto actually showed some cleverness this time and learned to use a trick.]
Naruto stared blankly at Sora and asked, "What is a routine?"
Kong shook his head: "With your intelligence, I can't explain it to you. You'll understand when the time is right."
Sasuke glanced at Sora with disdain. "What's with the act of being so profound? He's just a little kid."
Sakura almost burst out laughing; Sasuke looked so cool, especially when he was yelling at Ku.
"Mr. Tazuna, there was no narration in your Land of Waves before, was there?"
[Sora sensed that she had once again angered everyone, so she quietly changed the subject. The narrator then appeared in the Land of Waves, which might explain something.]
"No, there isn't. At first, I thought some kind of vengeful spirit had haunted us."
Kakashi said, "Either the narrator is expanding and has now reached the Land of Waves, or they came with us."
[Kakashi was more inclined to follow them. The narrator appeared in Konoha for a long time, when there wasn't even a capital city yet. It's impossible for the narrator to have spread from the Land of Fire to the Land of Waves in just a few days.]
[It seems the narrator has the ability to follow, spreading his message along with the creatures within his coverage area.]
The small boat docked, and several people disembarked.
After scanning the area and finding no enemy, he said, "Sasuke, use your Sharingan to scout around. Zabuza might be hiding nearby."
Zabuza was a tragic product of his time. He was wanted for failing to assassinate the Mizukage, and Gato spent a lot of money to hire him. Unfortunately, he didn't know that his strength was ultimately inferior to Kakashi's, and his fate had already sealed his defeat.
A hint of a smile flashed in Kong's eyes. The narrator possessed the ability to predict the future; it seemed they had won this battle. The only question was whether there had been any casualties.
"Don't trust narrators too much. The future is not static. If you harbor wishful thinking, you will only fail," Kakashi warned.
Kakashi glanced at Zabuza discreetly out of the corner of his eye. "Is Zabuza here?"
Zabuza, hidden in the tree, was startled. He had been exposed! Zabuza panicked, wondering what the sudden voice was and whether it was a new ninjutsu developed by Konoha.
Upon hearing this, Sora whispered, "That's right, this is Konoha's mind-reading technique. Zabuza, why don't you come down and surrender? What are you waiting for?"
Zabuza was terrified. He looked around, but there was no one in sight. He immediately realized that he had been tricked by a brat.
"Kid, I'm going to kill you first later."
"Anyone can talk big. Brother Ghost has talked big before, and now he's in a terrible state."
"Later I'll make sure your black intestines don't go in and your yellow intestines don't come out, I'll shove them into your guts."
Zabuza realized that the Demon Brothers had run into Kakashi the Copy Ninja; with their strength, they were just easy prey.
Chapter Twenty-Nine: Shocking News
The decapitation blade was suddenly swung up, spinning rapidly in the air with a whooshing sound, trying to fly over the six people's bodies.
The sharp blade gleamed with a cold light, seemingly about to cut the six people in half at the waist.
Zabuza looked confident of victory. Apart from Kakashi, who was a bit of a problem, the other four were just kids.
He turned around in mid-air, his pupils contracting sharply, the decapitation blade aimed directly at him.
Two kunai flew out of his hand and struck the hilt of the greatsword one after the other.
"Ku, lie down quickly!" Kakashi shouted anxiously.
With a "buzzing" sound, the decapitation blade that came flying from nowhere deviated slightly, grazing the empty head as it flew over, and a strand of hair slowly drifted down.
