Kakashi was silent and allowed Haku's request. Since Zabuza was a rogue ninja from the Hidden Mist Village, there was no reason not to let his body be taken away by the Hidden Mist Village's pursuit unit.
After all, the ninja pursuit unit was a unit formed to eliminate all traces of a ninja's existence. Kakashi didn't hesitate on this point.
"Then thank you all." Seeing that no one objected, Haku squatted down and prepared to take Zabuza's body away.
"Wait a moment." At this time, Kaoru spoke.
Haku's movements stopped immediately, and then relaxed again: "Do you have anything else?"
"Of course I have something." Kaoru said lightly. He flipped his right hand, and three shuriken appeared in his palm.
Seeing Kaoru take out the shuriken, a trace of tension appeared on Haku's face under the mask.
"What is it?" Haku asked in a deep voice.
"It's very simple, I really don't want to have such an attack a second time....." Kaoru's eyes narrowed, he waved his right hand, and three shuriken instantly flew out of his hand, flying towards Zabuza lying on the ground!
"Ice Release: Ice Rock Dome of Magnificent Nothingness!"
Haku took a step forward, formed hand seals, and a pure white ice wall suddenly appeared in front of Zabuza, blocking all of Kaoru's shuriken.
This development was unexpected by everyone.
"This is......" Kakashi's eyes were full of doubt, and then he immediately understood: "I see....."
He glanced at Haku and continued to say, "It seems that you are not a member of the Hidden Mist Village's ninja pursuit unit. You actually took action to block the attack. In that case, Zabuza is not really dead either."
"What do you mean?" The students were still confused.
"After Kaoru's actions, I now recall it. I almost let you go because of carelessness." Kakashi returned to his dead fish eyes and slowly said, "Since it's killing, how would you use senbon, a weapon with such general lethality, and the location of the hit on Zabuza is also very strange, it's actually the neck, where the acupoints are the most complicated......."
Hearing Kakashi say this, Haku already knew that things were beyond his control.
"Also, ninja pursuit units generally deal with corpses on the spot. You want to take Zabuza away, which means that you deliberately created the illusion of Zabuza's death, but you actually want to take him away from here. I'm right, aren't I!" Kakashi stared at Haku and said in a cold voice.
"Hmph, have I been discovered......." Haku waved his hands, and suddenly several senbon appeared between his fingers. He moved and stood guard beside Zabuza warily.
"Ice Release's Bloodline Limit, I admit that I'm surprised that you have such powerful ninjutsu at such a young age, but now you're alone, what can you do?" Seeing that Haku was wary, Kakashi still had a calm expression. He knew that the boy in front of him was not his opponent at all, let alone that Kaoru was by his side.
"I'll give you two choices now, either you give up Zabuza and leave on your own, or you die with him!" Kaoru said in a cold voice. He was determined to kill Zabuza, as for Haku, he would let him choose for himself.
"I will protect Zabuza-sama with my life!" Haku said firmly, without a trace of hesitation in his tone.
"This boy is really stubborn, is Zabuza so important to him......" Hearing Haku's words, Kakashi was a little touched by his sincere feelings.
"Troublesome....." Kaoru gave a wry smile, and then his expression turned cold, he suddenly turned his body and formed hand seals: " Water Release: Water Formation Wall!"
A stream of water surged beside the children, forming a huge water wall.
"Boom!" Almost at the moment when the water wall was just built, a large rock with a diameter of several meters directly hit the water wall!
"This is!" The students exclaimed in surprise.
"Have I been discovered, but it's not over yet....." A fat young man appeared behind everyone. He had an extremely thick belt around his waist, and the whole person looked quite strong.
"Earth Release: Earth Mausoleum Dumpling!" He plunged his hands into the ground, and then dug out a huge rock from the ground again!
"Let's have some fun!" A sharp voice came from above the tree trunk. A man with the same attire appeared. He had dark skin and actually had six arms, which was rare.
"Secret Technique: Spider Web Unfolding!"
The six-armed man waved his hand, and a huge spider web fell from the sky, covering the six students behind Kaoru and Kakashi.
"Those two guys are...... Orochimaru's subordinates, people from the Sound Five!" Kaoru recognized the identities of the attackers at a glance from the attire and ninjutsu of the two who suddenly attacked. They were Kidōmaru and Jirōbō, two of Orochimaru's capable assistants in the future attack on Konoha.
"Are they targeting the students behind us?!" Kaoru and Kakashi's hearts moved, and they immediately used the Body Flicker Technique to come to the side of Team 7 and Team 8's students.
"Ah!!!" The students were already frightened by the huge rocks flying over and the falling spider web above their heads. Only Wan'er was slightly calm. She immediately formed hand seals, wanting to use ninjutsu to resist all of this, but the speed at which the rocks and spider web flew was far faster than the speed at which she formed hand seals.
"Lightning Cutter!" Facing the flying giant rock, Kakashi did not hesitate at all, and directly used his most proud ninjutsu, Lightning Cutter. A stream of lightning chakra that could be seen with the naked eye enveloped his right palm, and he shattered the flying rock with one blow.
On the other side, Kaoru formed hand seals with both hands: "Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
A large number of swirling fireballs spewed out of Kaoru's mouth, burning the flying spider web.
"Haha, as expected of the people chosen by Orochimaru-sama, it seems you really have some skills......" Seeing Kaoru use Fire Release to burn his spider web, Kidōmaru revealed a playful smile.
"There's more than that....." A cold voice rang out, and Kaoru's figure had already appeared behind Kidōmaru.
"This brat, when!" Kidōmaru was completely frightened, and he didn't even have time to react.
"Shikotsumyaku: Ten-Finger Drilling Bullets!"
Ten bullet-like white bones suddenly attacked from the dark, targeting Kaoru behind Kidōmaru.
"Hmph!" Kaoru's expression did not change. He did not dodge the flying ten finger bones at all, and the kunai in his hand slashed towards Kidōmaru without hesitation.
"Puchi!"
"Puchi!"
Almost at the same time, Kaoru instantly cut off Kidōmaru's two arms, and the "Shikotsumyaku Ten-Finger Drilling Bullets" that attacked from the dark also hit Kaoru's body.
"My hands!" Kidōmaru hugged his two broken arms with his remaining four arms and roared crazily. Then he turned to look at Kaoru, who had been bombarded into his body by ten finger bones, and shouted with a painful face: "You brat, this is the price you paid for cutting off my two hands!"
"Hmph......" Kaoru behind Kidōmaru revealed a smile.
