Chapter 75: Understanding Zabuza and Learning from Zabuza
"The deal is still valid."
The voice of the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, came through, tinged with fatigue and pain: "Don't kill Zabuza, I understand why he wanted to assassinate me."
"Putting on a show of magnanimity for whom?"
Momochi Zabuza pulled out his blade from the vines, leapt back, and stood on the railing. He began to bring his hands together to form seals, attempting to use ninjutsu to break through the vine's defense!
"You think it's over just like that!"
The speed of Momochi Zabuza's hand seals was incredibly fast!
Akihara Kagura looked at those rapidly moving fingers, feeling somewhat dazzled, and sighed, "How long is he going to make those seals..."
"It must be the Water Dragon Bullet Technique..."
Uchiha Itachi, having dealt with Momochi Zabuza's water clone, walked over: "The Water Dragon Bullet Technique requires forty-four hand seals!"
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
Momochi Zabuza shouted fiercely, and a water dragon emerged from the sea behind him, lunging towards the direction of Akihara Kagura and the others!
"What a nuisance."
Akihara Kagura's fingers stood up!
A thick vine suddenly sprouted from the deck, wrapping around the neck of the water dragon and instantly crushing it!
Water splashed in all directions!
Taking advantage of the moment the water splashed down, the vine suddenly reached out and wrapped around Momochi Zabuza's body, starting to drain his chakra!
"You!"
Momochi Zabuza's pupils dilated in shock!
At that moment, Momochi Zabuza could hardly believe his eyes. The Water Dragon Bullet Technique, which took ten seconds to complete, was easily neutralized by the opponent with just a raise of their hand, and even he himself was effortlessly captured!
"Is it resolved already?"
Just at this moment, Hatake Kakashi had dealt with another water clone and was walking towards this area.
"Hmph!"
Momoichi Zabuza snorted coldly, unconcerned about his own situation, and looked in the direction of Yagura, the Fourth Mizukage, cursing in a deep voice: "Yagura, this time you are merely relying on the protection of Konoha!"
"..."
The Fourth Mizukage Yagura did not speak in his own defense.
Hatake Kakashi asked with some curiosity: "I am quite curious, why would Mist Anbu want to assassinate the Mizukage?"
"Probably to end the 'Bloody Mist Policy'..."
Yagura, the Fourth Mizukage, sighed and continued: "This is an unforgivable mistake I made against the village. It's only natural to be assassinated by my own subordinates."
"If this time I hadn't been captured by the Konoha ninja but instead killed by Zabuza, it would have been a relief for the village."
After saying this, Yagura praised Zabuza for attempting to assassinate him: "Taking this step for the sake of the village, Zabuza, you are a true hero!"
"So why don't you just willingly die!"
Zabuza scornfully retorted, coldly saying: "For the village, there could be nothing worse than your 'Bloody Mist' policy!"
"I can't just kill myself."
Yagura, the Fourth Mizukage, shook his head.
For him, suicide would bring personal relief but could cause dissatisfaction among the Konoha ninja around him and might even trigger a war between Konoha and Mist.
Hatake Kakashi and others did not speak up to defend him, as everyone couldn't just say that it was Uchiha Obito controlling Yagura to implement the 'Bloody Mist' policy in Mist, could they?
This matter should be kept as hidden as possible before Konoha retrieves Uchiha Obito, to avoid provoking greater hostility from Mist towards Konoha...
Capturing the Mizukage by Konoha ninja is one thing.
The control of the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, by the Konoha ninja and the implementation of the brutal Blood Mist policy in Mist Village, which forced the Mist ninja to slaughter each other, is a separate matter. Such actions could lead to an endless feud between the two great ninja villages.
"Go back."
The Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, no longer looked at Momochi Zabuza and said softly, "I have already ordered the village Genji and Jonin to abolish the Blood Mist policy. Zabuza, you are a genius. Return to the village, and you will achieve even greater accomplishments in the future."
"I don't need your kindness!"
Momochi Zabuza, always defiant, coldly continued, "Who knows what the village will become once you return? It might revert to its detestable state!"
"Let him go."
The Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, no longer looked at Momochi Zabuza.
Having already decided when he was released from the illusion, Yagura, the Fourth Mizukage, planned to answer with his life when he was no longer important.
As for the Three-Tails inside him...
Even if he died in the Konoha, the Three-Tails would be reborn in the Land of Water, so there was no need to worry about this strategic weapon falling into the hands of Konoha.
"See you if there's a chance."
Akihara Kagura released the vines binding Momochi Zabuza and even kindly reminded him, "Feel free to come again. I quite enjoy watching performances like this, where a village leader submits to the enemy to save his subordinates..."
"Bastard!"
A murderous intent flashed in Momochi Zabuza's eyes!
Just as he was about to pounce on Akihara Kagura, a flash of lightning suddenly calmed him down!
Kakashi's fingertips sparkled with lightning, firmly blocking Momochi Zabuza's way to prevent any rash actions, "The Mizukage has already saved you. Don't let his sacrifice be in vain. Hurry up and leave!"
"I will remember you all!"
Before leaving, Momochi Zabuza sized up everyone present.
This time, he had been defeated by a ninja with Wood Release Kekkei Genkai. After returning, he planned to collect information on Kekkei Genkai ninjas and seek his revenge!
After the incident involving Momochi Zabuza, their journey seemed to become smoother. There were probably many in the Mist Village who wanted to assassinate the Fourth Mizukage, but few dared to do so. Only Momochi Zabuza possessed the courage to resist.
"That guy is indeed impressive..."
Hatake Kakashi understood the courage in Momochi Zabuza.
"I've learned a lot..."
Akihara Kagura nodded repeatedly, speaking nonchalantly: "If our Third Hokage ever does anything inappropriate, I'll go assassinate the Hokage..."
"..."
That's not what you're supposed to learn!
A black line crossed Hatake Kakashi's forehead.
You shouldn't always learn these messy things, you little rascal!
Akihara Kagura was very eager to learn. He not only learned the spirit of rebellion from Momochi Zabuza but also an interesting jutsu from the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura.
The Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, taught him a harmless defensive jutsu. He definitely wouldn't teach Akihara Kagura any jutsu that could harm the ninjas of the Mist, like the extremely effective "Wind Release: Typhoon" jutsu against Mist ninjas.

[Water Release: Water Mirror Technique (Utilizes Water Release ninjutsu to create a mirror made of water. The mirror can reflect and duplicate an opponent identical in appearance, and it can use the same techniques as the enemy with the same power. Note: Water Mirror Technique requires a vast amount of chakra, the duplicate cannot be controlled, and will dissipate after one strike.)]
This technique is good.
It's very useful against ninjas who are strong in taijutsu, especially troublesome close-range ambush ninjas. Coincidentally, Akihara Kagura is not very good at close combat.
"Kakashi-senpai, Kagura-kun!"
Uchiha Itachi took over the watch from Akihara Kagura, loudly saying, "There's a boat following us
