Chapter 64: Selling Jars Requires Credibility
Although Zabuza's mouth was covered with bandages, anyone could tell that he was smiling.
"Dead end?" He slowly slung the greatsword in his hand back over his shoulder, then made as if to form hand seals. A chilling killing intent seemed to flicker in his gaze as he looked at Sasuke. "Your name is Sasuke, right? I'll tell you what a true ninja is."
"" Sasuke held Green Edge horizontally before him.
Even Kakashi began to focus.
The other side might have the ability to defeat Naruto and Sasuke, but Kakashi was still there. After witnessing Naruto and Sasuke's strength and teamwork, their opponent should know that the odds of killing the target had become vanishingly small.
What abilities and trump cards did Momochi Zabuza, known as the "Demon," actually possess?
Zabuza's hands formed the first seal.
Everyone stared intently.
"Release!"
He shouted softly.
Poof—
His entire body turned into a puddle of water and collapsed onto the ground.
And then there was nothing more.
The scene seemed to fall into an eerie silence. Sasuke gripped his sword, warily and dumbfoundedly scanning his surroundings.
"What the heck? It was just a clone." Naruto looked around. "Where is he? Where did he go?"
Shen Mo, who was watching from the shadows, had a truly difficult time holding back his laughter.
This was the reason for his surprise just now.
Momochi Zabuza had made a tactical retreat without hesitation after seeing no hope of completing the mission.
When he had appeared to be preparing to ambush Naruto, it had already been a clone. The real Zabuza had slipped away silently long ago.
He had left Sasuke and the others on guard there for quite some time.
At last, they finally confirmed it.
Their opponent had fled.
