Chapter 236 Tetsuya: Wow, so many people! Perfect, let's take them all in one go.
The world seemed to be silenced at that moment, but instead of the sound of the famous sword shattering, there was only the deafening roar of thunder, like the cries of a thousand birds.
Kakashi's eyes widened in disbelief, while Zabuza was even more astonished than Kakashi, unable to believe what was happening before his eyes.
Bai suddenly appeared from the ice mirror, standing in front of him and shielding him from the fatal blow.
Kakashi's hand pierced through Haku's chest.
The ninjutsu ended, the lightning disappeared, and time, which had seemed to have stopped, began to flow again.
Kakashi was caught off guard by this sudden turn of events, and his summoning jutsu was temporarily canceled.
However, Bai, whose chest had been pierced, did something that surprised everyone.
He grabbed Kakashi's hand, the one that had pierced through his chest, with his own.
"Lord Zabuza, this is a perfect opportunity!"
Kakashi's eyes widened even more. He hadn't expected that this guy would actually use his own life to create an opportunity for Zabuza.
"Kakashi, it seems that the one who will face the ultimate fate is not me, but you."
Naruto couldn't understand what was happening before his eyes.
"What on earth is going on?!"
"That masked kid!"
"He actually chose to sacrifice himself for Zabuza!"
Kakashi felt the force on his wrist.
"The child is dead, but his hand shows no sign of loosening."
"You did a great job! I won't let you die in vain!"
Zabuza roared and drew his Executioner's Blade from behind him, ready to slash at Kakashi.
"You don't intend to kill this child too, do you?!"
"Kakashi-sensei!"
"Oh no, we're too close!"
"I've really struck gold! At the very last moment, they actually created this opportunity for me! Hahahaha!"
The massive decapitation blade traced an arc of light in the air as it slashed towards Kakashi and Haku together.
Kakashi immediately made a decision, and directly used his teleportation ability to carry Haku's corpse backward.
"Whoosh!"
The decapitation blade fell, leaving a deep gash on the sturdy bridge surface.
Seeing that Kakashi had dodged his attack, Zabuza burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, so you were only able to be moved after Bai was completely dead?"
Kakashi frowned and retorted.
"Zabuza, your mind is in turmoil."
As Naruto watched Zabuza actually swing his sword at the corpse of his comrade, an unnamed rage rose from the depths of his heart.
"Unforgivable, you bastard!"
"Naruto!"
Kakashi shouted sharply, stopping Naruto.
“You stay there and watch. I’ll handle this guy. I’m going to personally send them to their reunion.”
With that, Kakashi placed Haku on the ground and closed his eyes.
This is only the second person in Kakashi's long life to run into his own Lightning Blade.
He thought that he would never encounter such a thing again after that.
But to his surprise, he ran into it again today.
"Right now, there's no time for you to talk big!"
Zabuza charged at Kakashi again.
While everyone's attention was focused on Kakashi and Zabuza, no one noticed that Gato had already surrounded the unfinished bridge with his men.
"Wow, so many people! Kado really went all out this time. He must have brought out all his servants too. But that's fine, at least we can get rid of them all at once."
"You plan to kill all of them!"
Sasuke's eyes widened in disbelief.
Tetsuya removed his mask and smiled at Sasuke.
"What's wrong? Can't you bear to see so many people die? I never thought that the Uchiha clan would produce such a kind and compassionate person."
"Tch, I don't care whether these people live or die."
Sasuke scoffed and looked up as he spoke.
"I don't care about those random passersby, hooligans, bandits, etc. It's just that the thought of so many people dying brings back some bad memories."
"Is that so? Then don't worry, you won't see a single bloody scene."
"What do you mean?"
Tetsuya smiled and activated his kaleidoscope ability, and a figure was reflected in his eyes.
Then Sasuke saw someone suddenly appear beside him.
He just appeared out of nowhere, as if he had always been there.
"Izuna-senpai! When did you appear?"
"The real Izuna is not here; he is merely a reflection created by my Kaleidoscope ability."
"This is just a reflection created by your kaleidoscope ability!"
Sasuke's eyes widened in disbelief as he activated his two-tomoe Sharingan to carefully observe the person before him.
The person in front of him, except for not speaking, was exactly like Izuna himself.
Even the pressure exerted by those Rinnegan eyes was incredibly realistic.
"That's right. Although it's still difficult to replicate a reflection that's 100% identical, the current reflection is at least 80% as powerful as Izuna's."
"Possessing 80% of Izuna-senpai's strength! That's already quite terrifying, okay? That's the Rinnegan, you know. How much chakra and ocular power would you have to expend to create such a reflection?"
"It's alright, it doesn't matter to me anyway."
As he spoke, Tetsuya took out a white mask from his sleeve and handed it to the reflection of Izuna.
"Take this and wear it when you get to work."
Reflection Izuna didn't say anything, but simply took the white mask and put it on his face.
At this moment, Madara Uchiha, the ninja world's savior who instantly defeated Hanzo of the Salamander on the battlefield of the Land of Rain, reappears in the ninja world.
On the bridge, Zabuza's hands had already been crippled by Kakashi.
At the same time, Kado stopped hiding and led his men to block all their way.
"Oh my, the battle is so fierce. However, I am very dissatisfied with your performance, Zabuza."
Zabuza turned around and looked behind him.
"Kado, what brings you here? And what's the story with your men?"
"Hehehe, it's nothing, just a slight change in the battle plan."
"Cardo, wearing glasses and sporting a small mustache, chuckled."
"Then you should die here."
"What did you say?"
"Oh dear, has your brain been damaged? Hiring a regular ninja is very expensive, but you rogue ninjas are much cheaper, and even if you die, I won't lose anything."
Moreover, letting you ninjas kill each other saves me a lot of money and time.
"That's hilarious! They call themselves 'demons of the Hidden Mist,' but to me they're nothing but a bunch of childish brats. Hahahaha!"
After saying that, Kado burst into wild laughter.
Kado's men burst into laughter.
The laughter was quite jarring.
