Naruto: The Strongest Sage.

The team finally set off. Sasuke and the other two didn't know what agreement Aoba had reached with Dazna. They only knew that the mission was going to continue.

The journey was peaceful for a few days. But Qingye knew that since the ghost brothers had appeared, it meant that Zabuza had set his sights on him just like in the original plot.

Now Aoba is naturally not afraid of Zabuza. However, he is quite interested in this extremely traditional ninja.

Zabuza's weapon is a beheading sword, which doesn't really fit the style of a ninja. Look at his moves in the plot.

Start with the Mist Hidden Technique, then use various water clones to trick people out of their positions. Make hand seals and release ninjutsu.

In his previous life, many people said that Kisame was an honest man. But in Aoba's opinion, Zabuza was almost the same. They were both very traditional ninjas.

When they passed by a forest, Karin's face suddenly became tense.

"Teacher Aoba, there is..."

Before he could finish his words, a whistling sound came from overhead.

"Get down." Qingye shouted, and used the teleportation technique to move forward and catch the flying beheading sword with one hand.

The huge impact pushed him back more than ten meters. But in the end, the beheading sword still fell steadily into Qingye's hands.

Zabuza in the distance: "......"

Qingye casually thrust the beheading sword in front of him and looked up at the tall figure on the tree branch.

Zabuza is very tall and strong. With a huge machete on his back, he looks more like a samurai than a ninja.

"What a strong chakra. It's totally not on the same level as the previous two." Karin's Kagura mind eye clearly observed that Zabuza was very powerful and could not be compared with the previous two losers.

"Squad 7, prepare to meet the enemy."

"Okay, watch me." As soon as Aoba finished speaking, Naruto, who had always wanted to show off, rushed forward.

"Idiot." Sasuke cursed and followed him. He was also very experienced in actual combat. He could see the danger of Zabuza at a glance. Only Naruto, a fool, rushed forward directly.

"Multiple Shadow Clones." Naruto used his signature ninjutsu, which scared Zabuza.

This kid has so much chakra?

But then, Naruto was exposed. His physical skills were pretty good among his peers. But facing a master like Zabuza, it was no different from delivering food.

Even without the beheading sword in his hand, Zabuza could still defeat his shadow clones with one punch each.

“It turns out it’s just a flower stand.”

Sasuke fired six shurikens from the side. Zabuza dodged sideways. Then he discovered that the shurikens were wrapped with very thin steel wires?

"This is... the Uchiha throwing technique. It's been a long time since I've seen it."

The Uchiha of those days were wisely arranged to fight against Kirigakure. The Uchiha's signature throw was something the Kirigakure ninjas were very familiar with.

"Shuriken technique." Sasuke manipulated the steel wire, blocking Zabuza's movement from all directions, and then gathered in the middle.

"I got you." He shouted, and then saw Zabuza turned into a puddle of water.

"Water clone. Not good, Mr. Dazna."

Zabuza, holding a kunai, appeared in front of Dazna.

"mission completed."

There was no intention to get entangled with Naruto and Sasuke. Zabuza once again showed a different style from the original plot. He directly bypassed Sasuke and Naruto and prepared to behead Dazna.

"Earth escape, the art of beheading in the heart."

A hand suddenly grabbed Zabuza's leg from the ground and pulled him directly into the ground.

Karin made her move at the critical moment, and her timing was just right. But Aoba still shook his head with a hint of regret.

Although Zabuza is also a traditional ninja who can cast seals, his speed of casting spells is much faster than that of the three children.

In the instant before Karin succeeded, the opponent used the water clone to dodge again.

"Interesting, as expected of a team led by Konoha's Wind Chaser. Looks like I have to get serious about the Mist Hidden Technique as well."

A thick fog spread rapidly, covering the entire forest. Zabuza's figure disappeared in the fog.

"Damn it, I can't see you anymore. Come out and confront me if you dare." Naruto was still talking nonsense. Karin finally couldn't stand it anymore.

"You two idiots, as long as we guard Mr. Dazna, he will definitely show up. Come back here."

The Mist Hidden Technique is not an ordinary thick fog, and ordinary wind escape techniques cannot actually break it. Therefore, Karin's tactical choice is theoretically correct. It's just that the coordination between the three of them is really bad. And they don't have a correct understanding of Zabuza's strength.

The three of them quickly formed a defensive formation, protecting Dazna in the middle. But ninjas can release ninjutsu, especially when four people are crowded together.

"Water Style, Great Waterfall Technique."

Zabuza did not carry out assassination in the thick fog as expected. Seeing four people crowded together, he directly used an AoE to cover the four people.

"Earth Escape, Earth Flow Wall." Karin outputted chakra frantically, and a wall of earth rose out of thin air, blocking the frontal impact of the waterfall.

But the flowing water still completely submerged them.

All three of them were able to tread water, dragging Dazna and barely standing in the current. Seeing this, Qingye knew that the three little ones had already lost.

In the previous attack, Zabuza had already followed the water flow and sneaked under their feet. Because Karin was concentrating on maintaining the earth flow wall, she was unable to split herself and use Kagura's mind eye to see. As a result, they had already lost the initiative.

Faced with an elite jonin like Zabuza, the genin lost the initiative and could only wait for death.

A huge whistling sound was heard again. A beheading sword suddenly appeared and slashed at the feet of the three people.

The three of them exclaimed, only to realize that Zabuza had approached them without them knowing when.

With a bang, the water surface exploded, and Zabuza rushed out of the water. However, he was unable to cause any harm to the four people, because his beheading sword had already flown to his face.

With a clang, Zabuza barely blocked the beheading sword. But the next second, Aoba's figure appeared in front of him.

"How fast!" This thought flashed through Zabuza's mind, but he was completely too late to respond.

Aoba pushed his right hand flat, pressing it against Zabuza's chest. A ball of compressed air exploded in his hand.

With a bang, Zabuza felt as if he was hit in the chest with a sledgehammer. A mouthful of blood spurted out, and the whole person flew dozens of meters away and hit the tree heavily.

"Uh, cough, cough..." After being hit, Zabuza covered his chest and was almost unable to stand.

There is such a big difference! He is indeed a master who can fight against the Raikage. This guy is probably not weaker than the White Fang of Konoha back then.

It’s just a pity for me that after so many years, I have achieved nothing.

Zabuza was a little sad. He was a very traditional ninja. The assassination was also to save Kirigakure. He was active outside as a traitor in the past few years, hoping to accumulate strength and return to Kirigakure one day.

But now it seems that everything will end today.
