He has even practiced his Haki, and you say this is Naruto?

Because he had no time to raise his sword to fight back, Zabuza took a step back, and at the same time, his body leaned back slightly. It was at this time that the beheading sword barely blocked Kakashi's attack.

The two people crossed each other.

Blood splattered, and blood spilled from Zabuza's chest. The sword in his hand also broke, and a terrible tear appeared on his chest.

Within a few dozen meters in front of Zabuza, the calm sea surface seemed to boil, and water splashed everywhere.

"No Sword Style. Empty Palm", the powerful shock force penetrated Kakashi's body, and even the sea water behind Kakashi was shaken away by this force.

On the sea, the figures of Kakashi and Zabuza were reflected in the eyes of the crows. Zabuza bent over and supported his body, while Kakashi, who was standing behind Zabuza, fell straight down.

"It was a close call. Fortunately, I, the captain, won!"

Zabuza held Kakashi in one hand and walked towards the shore.

"Gah!"

"Gah!"

"Gah!!"

The crow on the bridge called twice and then flew away.

Chapter 43: Three parties gather

"Haven't they made any move yet?"

Zabuza muttered in his heart.

Konoha arranged for people to come here, definitely not because of a simple C-level mission.

But Zabuza didn't expect that Kakashi was beaten half to death by him, and the other people from Konoha hadn't appeared yet.

"It's really sad, Kakashi, it seems that you have been abandoned by Konoha, but this is normal, just an elite jonin, for such a big ninja village, it's just a chess piece that can be discarded at will."

Zabuza even felt a little more sympathy for Kakashi.

He was too familiar with this kind of pathetic ninja who was a chess piece but gave everything for the village, because he used to be like this.

It's normal for Konoha to do this, all ninja villages are similar, Konoha can even abandon an ally like the Whirlpool Country, just a jonin.

"Not only Kakashi, but also the brat from the Uchiha clan, and the brat called Uzumaki Naruto.

Maybe I was wrong from the beginning. Konoha sent them not because they were strong enough, nor because they underestimated our Bladeless Pirates, but because these three people were chess pieces that could be discarded at will."

Zabuza's mind was extremely clear at this time, and he was more convinced of the identity of "Uzumaki Naruto". As for the one called "Uchiha Sasuke", he was the orphan of the Uchiha clan. Why did Konoha want to get rid of the orphan of the Uchiha clan?

Obviously, the extermination of the Uchiha clan was inseparable from the Konoha high-level officials.

"..."

Zabuza carried Kakashi and walked back to the bridge again. He had figured it out.

If anyone knows the Uzumaki clan best, it must be Konoha. It seems that the Konoha high-level officials have known Shanks' information for a long time, and know it better than anyone else.

"Captain!!"

"The captain won."

"..."

Seeing Zabuza coming back, the morale of the pirates was high.

Zabuza walked to the front with a gloomy face.

Bang!

Kakashi was thrown to the ground by Zabuza and looked like he was dying.

"Teacher Kakashi!"

Sasuke's pupils shrank slightly. He didn't expect Kakashi to lose, and lose so badly.

"Teacher Kakashi, damn you pirates."

Naruto saw Kakashi's miserable state, and a burst of anger rose up, and he rushed straight to Zabuza.

"Naruto!"

Sakura hurriedly spoke to stop him, but at this time, Naruto was already overwhelmed by anger.

"Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!"

Naruto rushed to Zabuza and turned into dozens of people in an instant. The oncoming attack left Zabuza no room to dodge.

"No Sword Style. Shattered Lake!"

The next moment, Naruto felt as if he had hit an air wall, and then the air wall shattered and turned into countless blades.

Bang Bang Bang Bang! !

Dozens of shadow clones were shattered in an instant, and Naruto flew back, his clothes were shattered, and wounds of varying sizes appeared on his body.

Dense blood beads fell from Naruto's body.

In an instant, it only took a moment for Naruto to be seriously injured.

Not far away, Zabuza looked down at everyone, and a strong momentum burst out of his body, just like when he faced Shanks's Conqueror's Haki. If he didn't have enough faith and momentum to fight against it, he couldn't even make a move under the Conqueror's Haki.

At this moment, everyone felt the powerful momentum of Zabuza, and even the wind on the bridge stagnated.

Zabuza handed his knife to Bai beside him.

"This is your last chance. Either you defeat me, or all of you will die here, including Kakashi."

"You will die here because you are such a burden."

"Thirty minutes, this is the time I give you."

Zabuza's tone was cold, and a strong killing intent burst out from his body. Everyone knew that this time, Zabuza was really angry.

He was indeed angry, but Zabuza's anger was not directed at Naruto and the others, but at the ninjas of the old era, at those ninja villages that said one thing in public and another behind the scenes.

The ninja world needs to usher in a new era, an era of pirates!

"What...what? We...are all going to die?"

Kotaro and Saabei, who had been fishing, were stunned. Ah, no, what does it have to do with them? The two of them just stood a little closer to the ninjas of Konoha.

"If you run away, you may die worse."

Sasuke said coldly.

He would not die in a place like this, not to mention that the other party was already so seriously injured.

"let's go!"

Sasuke also rushed forward, and Zuobei and Kotaro gritted their teeth.

"Fight!"

As a genin floor with fighting power, the two of them had already shown their strongest form at this time - it was still a genin floor.

"boom!"

Sasuke was kicked away.

Kotaro was punched in the cheek, and his teeth flew out.

Zuobei's katana hit Zabuza's chest solidly, not much.

"This weak blade of the old era can never cut off our belief in opening up a new era, you low-level ninja."

Zabuza looked down at Zuohei, his ferocious gaze more terrifying than any ferocious beast Zuohei had ever seen.

"Knife-free flow. Gravel!"

Zabuza's hand blade tore through the air and struck down with terrifying force.

"I don't care... I don't care if it's thirty minutes, whether it's three minutes or thirty minutes, I will defeat you."

"I, Naruto Uzumaki, am not a loser or a burden."

Naruto stood up unsteadily, his clothes were soaked in blood and his face was covered in blood.

Peng!

At the moment when his life was hanging by a thread, Zuobei was knocked out by Naruto.

Immediately afterwards.

boom! !

The ground in front of Zabuza was shattered inch by inch, with Zabuza as the center of the circle, and the cracks spread to ten meters away.

"I... can't lose."

Naruto was lying on the ground, his right hand firmly grasping Zabuza's wrist.

"I'm not a low-level ninja. I... also have my own beliefs."

Naruto held a kunai in his other hand and stabbed Zabuza in the thigh.

"Naruto!!"

Sasuke, who was knocked away, rushed forward, his Sharingan was operating to the extreme, but it was useless, it had no effect.

Even if he could see Zabuza's movements clearly, his body wouldn't be able to react.

"snort!"

Zabuza didn't take these people seriously at all and directly lifted Naruto up to block Sasuke's attack.

At this moment, a whip kicked from the side.

It's still the same as before, you can obviously see it, but you can only watch it, you can't avoid it at all.

boom!

Before Sasuke could react after being kicked by Zabuza, Zabuza rushed forward again, clasping his palms together.

The surrounding air seemed to be stagnant the next moment.

"boom!!"

A violent explosion of energy exploded, and Sasuke felt as if his chest was broken, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he flew backwards.

Zuobei also reacted and rushed forward to catch Sasuke.

The two people rolled on the ground several times, and finally Zuobei hit a pillar beside the bridge and stopped.

At this time, Sakura was the only one left on the bridge.

Her heart had been completely filled with fear, as if she had been plunged into endless darkness. Kakashi-sensei's life and death were unknown, Sasuke was seriously injured and unconscious, and Naruto was even more seriously injured.

They will all...all die here.

Sakura's body trembled.

In her eyes, Zabuza was completely the image of the Great Demon King, and the terrifying murderous intent came from Senhan.

The next moment, two kunai passed through Sakura's body and she fell to the ground.

Zuobei not far away was also completely wrapped in frost and had no power to resist.

It's not that Zabuza made a move, but that he made a move for nothing.

Naruto's eyes were so painful that he could hardly open them. They were filled with blood and his vision gradually blurred.

"It would be great if...if I were really a fox demon."

"If I were really a fox demon, everyone wouldn't have to die. Kakashi-sensei, Sasuke...Sakura...Kotaro and Zuobei wouldn't die here."

"if……"

Naruto fell into darkness. He heard the sound of water dripping, and a puddle of water appeared under his feet. Looking up, a terrifying black shadow emerged from the cage formed by huge pillars.

A force came from the other end of the cage. As the terrifying shadow gradually approached, Naruto's power became stronger and stronger, and he also saw those violent eyes approaching.

But the next moment, the cage twisted, the tall pillars disappeared, and the terrifying shadows also disappeared. Only three magatama remained in the space, and then, Naruto's consciousness also fell into a deep sleep.

On the bridge, the sea breeze made the red cloud cloak rustle. Two tall figures stood in front of Zabuza, and Zabuza had already retreated into the distance.

A wall of ice appeared in front of him, and the ice wall was burning with flames. On the ground, a trace of blood was left, and Zabuza's wound burst open.

Kisame, who was standing next to Itachi, slowly raised his sword.
