"I have to say, your perception of killing intent is astonishingly accurate..."

Kazeka looked at the mirror in front of him, a complex smile forming on his lips:

"But to stop fighting just because of killing intent, you're quite kind, aren't you?"

"It's not just that. As far as I know, Konoha usually has a skilled Jonin leading the team when they're out with three Genin..."

The Haku in the mirror spoke, its voice clear and cold:

"A complete squad, my lord Zabuza and I can handle. But two squads, with an unknown Jonin lurking...

Most importantly, you didn't attack immediately. That's enough for me to stop for now and hear your request!"

"Hmm, a very accurate assessment. In that case, I won't waste any more words..."

Kazeka began:

"I want you to stop pursuing Mr. Tazuna and leave Gato's side.

I know this sounds ridiculous, but I've obtained some intel.

Gato plans to eliminate you after you've completed your mission!

Is this information enough for you to stand down?"

"I'm very sorry, but it's not enough!"

Hearing Kazeka's intel, Haku froze for a moment, then gently shook its head:

"We had some expectation of Gato's intentions.

But as long as we eliminate Tazuna, and as long as we withstand Gato's pressure, We can still get paid by him, and consider our mission complete.

It's cruel, but that's how it is for Rogue Ninjas. Those are the rules for Rogue Ninjas!"

"Since we're talking about rules, it seems there's no way to reconcile..."

Kazeka shook his head helplessly, glared at Kiba Inuzuka who seemed about to say something, and then adopted a fighting stance:

"Naruto, Sasuke, let's attack Haku from both the inside and outside. Your main goal is to protect yourselves and engage in a prolonged fight.

I've already secretly used a volatile agent on Haku. Just hold on for a while, and victory will surely be ours!"

"Kazeka, is your agent reliable?"

The negotiation had failed, and the opponent had launched a new wave of attacks. Feeling the even fiercer assault than before, Naruto couldn't help but complain:

"Did you use the wrong agent or something?"

"Not at all!"

It was clear that Haku had excellent control over the Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals, as it could move even after forming.

In an instant, it enveloped Kazeka and Kiba Inuzuka, giving them no chance for an attack from both inside and out.

However, Kazeka remained unruffled by this, instead revealing the madness of a twisted scientist:

"What I just used was a gender-bending agent!

As time passes, the opponent's body will continuously change towards the opposite gender!

A ninja's body is incredibly intricate; even the slightest change can have a significant impact.

And a complete gender change in a short period will only amplify this change infinitely.

Physical uncoordination, mental panic, emotional confusion...

When all of this combines, that will be our moment to counterattack!"

"Wow, Kazeka, you really are a pervert!"

Even while defending against the attack, Naruto couldn't help but stare at Kazeka, dumbfounded:

"If I'm not mistaken, this change you're talking about is a literal, genuine change, right?"

"That's right, a genuine change from the inside out. And this agent lasts for quite a long time.

Based on my estimation, without my agent, the opponent will remain in this state for ten years!"

Kazeka glanced at Naruto with admiration:

"You know, this inspiration actually came from your 'Sexy Jutsu'!"

"Hey, don't just throw the blame onto me!"

Hearing this, Naruto was shocked and yelled at Kazeka:

"That was just a prank, not some perverted technique like yours!

Sasuke..."

At this point, Naruto suddenly spoke to Sasuke:

"Did you see how terrifying this guy's experiments are? Do you still want to go to him now?"

Sasuke: "..."

Kazeka's potion-making skills were truly terrifying, but also abstract enough.

Such absurd methods left Sasuke in great hesitation, even his defensive attacks began to slow down.

However, Sasuke wasn't the only one whose attacks slowed; Haku's attacks also began to decelerate.

After a while, Haku's attacks completely stopped.

Clutching his chest, which was gradually swelling, Haku, his face flushed red, dispelled the Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals. He stared intently at Kazeka for a few seconds before hesitantly asking:

"Do you have any more of those potions?"

Naruto: "..."

Sasuke: "..."

Kiba Inuzuka: "..."

While Kazeka's potions were too abstract, Haku's question was even more explosive.

However, seeing that the other party seemed to have no intention of continuing the attack, the group didn't provoke Haku further.

Clearly, Haku's question had also caught Kazeka by surprise.

But Kazeka, who always enjoyed a good spectacle, didn't hesitate and directly took out a pack of ten potions, tossing them to Haku:

"Drink them all at once, and it'll completely stabilize your condition. I don't have many raw materials for this, this is all that's left.

But almost no one likes this stuff, so consider it a gift!"

"Gulp!"

Taking the potions from Kazeka, Haku didn't hesitate and downed them all.

After confirming his physical condition, Haku no longer wasted time with Kazeka and his group, and went directly to the battlefield between Zabuza and Kakashi:

"Lord Zabuza, stop. We're abandoning the mission, let's leave here!"

"Haku, what nonsense are you spouting? What's wrong with your current state?

Damn it, hurry up and capture that kid named Kazeka..."

As a ninja, even while fighting Kakashi, Zabuza knew what had just happened to Haku.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but anxiously shout:

"Hurry up and have him change you back to normal!"

"I'm in a great state right now. The other side has two teams, there's no point in fighting any further!"

Haku yelled in embarrassment and annoyance at Zabuza:

"Lord Zabuza, I didn't have the qualifications before, but now, can't you stop for me?"

Zabuza: "..."

Hearing Haku's words, Zabuza instinctively sensed something was wrong, but he suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his mind and continued:

"Haku, you said it yourself. As my weapon, you were to completely eliminate your own thoughts and only eliminate enemies for me. I now command you..."

"Becoming a thoughtless weapon was because I was just a boy. It's different now..."

Haku looked at Zabuza enthusiastically, his words starting to become a bit unreasonable:

"My gender has changed, so I can demand more.

Zabuza, I command you now, you must stop, or I'll team up with Kakashi and the others to deal with you!"

Zabuza: "..."
