"!"
Inside Kado Manor, Zabuza Momochi was the first to react.
As the Demon of the Hidden Mist, Zabuza was particularly skilled in assassination. He had assassinated countless important figures with the Silent Killing Technique and had even personally attempted to assassinate the Fourth Mizukage, so he was extremely sensitive to killing intent.
Even if Chakra could not be sensed, killing intent was sometimes far more obvious than Chakra.
Thud!
Zabuza rose to his feet, slinging the Kubikiribōchō across his back as his left hand formed a hand seal.
"Zabuza-sama!"
Haku immediately set down his drink and pulled out several senbon needles.
"..."
"Th-then, Mr. Zabuza, may I ask what happened?"
After a moment of silence, Gato immediately moved away from Zabuza and hid behind several subordinates.
Zabuza shot Gato a disdainful look, but since he was the employer, he still gave him an explanation.
"Someone with a grudge against you has come."
"Ninja Art: Hiding in Mist Technique!"
A thick white mist suddenly rose within the manor.
"A-a grudge?"
Gato was confused. Could those damned commoners have hired ninjas to kill him too?
"Mr. Zabuza, you..."
Bang!
Before Gato could finish speaking, the manor gates were kicked open.
"What is this?"
Uchiha Izumi, who charged in at the front, spotted the spreading mist at a glance.
"This is Kirigakure's Hiding in Mist Technique."
Uchiha Tekka, following behind Uchiha Izumi, spoke up. His attitude toward Izumi was extremely respectful. More accurately, the entire Uchiha Clan now treated Izumi with great respect.
Uchiha Izumi was the Uchiha Clan's only Mangekyō Sharingan wielder now. Naruto did not count.
"The Hiding in Mist Technique? Just burn it away!"
As Uchiha Izumi watched the mist rapidly spread toward them, she reminded them, "Control your Chakra. Leave them barely alive!"
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
