Konoha: The Female Ninja Fell Apart After Her Diary Was Exposed

Naruto Uzumaki blocked Zabuza's attack once again.

"How... how is that possible?!"

Zabuza couldn't help crying out.

He had put everything he had

into that last attack.

The weight of the Kubikiribōchō, combined with the momentum of his full-strength swing—

how could a kid

have stopped a blow like that head-on?

No, something was wrong.

Even if this kid had an unusual physique,

an ordinary steel kunai couldn't possibly stop the Kubikiribōchō!

"That presence... Wind Release chakra?!"

Zabuza's pupils contracted.

This kid

had coated the kunai in his hand with Wind Release chakra to block the attack!

"A kid like him has already mastered Chakra Nature Transformation?"

Zabuza drew a sharp breath.

That technique

was beyond the grasp of many jonin!

More importantly,

the kid had stayed this calm under his Silent Killing Technique...

Could a child

really have nerves like that?

"Found you!"

While Zabuza was distracted, Kakashi Hatate appeared behind him.

Thud!

With a muffled sound,

Kakashi drove his kunai through Zabuza's heart.

"Yes!"

"We won."

Sasuke Uchiha shouted in excitement at the sight.

But the next second,

Zabuza's body dissolved into a puddle of clear water.

"A water clone?!"

"It's too late to notice now."

Zabuza appeared behind Kakashi.

"Ninja Art: Water Prison Technique!"

He formed hand seals,

and a huge sphere of water engulfed Kakashi Hatake.

"Kakashi, this fight is over."

Watching Kakashi Hatake struggle inside the water prison, Zabuza wore a look of certain victory.

As long as he kept Kakashi Hatake trapped,

those three kids

were his to deal with however he pleased.

"Damn it!"

Sasuke Uchiha's heart sank at the sight.

Kakashi had been captured.

What could they do against an elite jonin like Zabuza?

"You three Konoha brats ready to die?"

Zabuza stared smugly at Naruto Uzumaki and the others.

The blond kid had surprised him by blocking his water clone's attack.

But that was all.

Genius or not,

he was still just a Konoha genin.

Zabuza had won this fight.

We have to rescue Kakashi!

It's our only chance of surviving.

After forcing himself to calmly assess the situation, Sasuke Uchiha gripped his kunai and prepared to attack Zabuza.

With things as they were,

he was the only one who had a chance of pulling it off!

Smack!

Someone patted his shoulder. Sasuke Uchiha turned and looked at Naruto Uzumaki in confusion.

"Sasuke, don't throw your life away."

"You can't handle an opponent this strong."

"Sakura, you and Sasuke protect the old man."

With that, Naruto Uzumaki slowly walked toward Zabuza.

What Kind of Monster Is This?

"Idiot! This isn't the time to mess around!"

Sasuke Uchiha shouted at Naruto Uzumaki's back and moved to stop him.

Zabuza was an S-rank missing-nin who had attempted to assassinate a Kage-level fighter and lived!

Was that fool trying to get himself killed?

"Sasuke, trust Naruto."

"We can just watch this fight."

Sakura stepped in front of Sasuke Uchiha and spoke one word at a time.

"Huh?"

Sasuke Uchiha was getting angry.

Naruto was supposed to fight while they stood by and watched?

What kind of joke was that?!

"He's an elite jonin. Do you even understand that?"

"That's exactly why I'm stopping you."

Sakura nodded calmly.

"Naruto's power is far more terrifying than you imagine."

In the shadows,

Uzuki Yugao, who had been about to intervene, stopped as well.

That Naruto...

He wouldn't do this unless he was sure he could win, would he?

"Mmmph!!!"

Seeing Naruto Uzumaki approach Zabuza alone, Kakashi Hatake looked frantic inside the water prison.

What were these kids

thinking?

Did they think

this was some kind of game?

Against an enemy this strong, they would be lucky if all three worked together and managed to free him from the water prison.

Going in alone

was suicide!

"Kakashi, is this the kind of student you've trained?"

Zabuza watched Naruto Uzumaki with interest, his eyes full of mockery.

A kid was still a kid.

A little strength, and suddenly he thought he could take on anyone.

With that,

Zabuza left a shadow clone to maintain the Water Prison Technique.

"Kid, you don't seriously think blocking two of my attacks makes you a match for me, do you?"

"That little exchange didn't even count as a warm-up."

Zabuza raised the Kubikiribōchō and snorted at Naruto Uzumaki.

Unfortunately for him,

Naruto Uzumaki

gave no response at all.

"Arrogant Konoha brat!"

Zabuza's gaze turned cold at Naruto Uzumaki's attitude.

The next second,

he vanished.

"Die, you little shit!"

Zabuza appeared directly in front of Naruto Uzumaki and swung the Kubikiribōchō at him with a rush of air.

He would cut this irritating kid in two.

Instead of dodging Zabuza's attack, Naruto Uzumaki raised his kunai and charged!

"What the hell is that idiot thinking?!"

At the sight,

both Kakashi Hatake and Sasuke Uchiha panicked.
