"Being so generous? You show up and gift me a Kubikiribōchō worth tens of millions?"
Fuyuki held the Kubikiribōchō and called after Zabuza, who had hurled it into the forest, teasing him.
Zabuza, however, had no sense of humor. Seeing his sneak attack fail, he stood beneath the trees and began forming Hand Seals, calling out, "Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
