It was not only Zabuza—even Kakashi, trapped inside the Water Prison, found it hard to conceal his shock. That Body Flicker Technique seemed to belong to that fallen genius, Uchiha Shisui!
He was the terrifying figure whom Kirigakure had ordered its shinobi to abandon their missions upon sighting. To think Sasuke had actually learned Shisui's Body Flicker Technique—it seemed he still did not know enough about his "adorable" student!
