10 Zabuza's Memory

"Where is this?" Zabuza asked as he woke up from his sleep. He saw nothing but white where he had woken up.

"You're finally awake." Someone said in a gentle tone.

"Who are you?" asked Zabuza.

"Who I am is not important. I'm just here to offer you something."

"Offers something? What for? Aren't I dead?"

"Indeed, you are already dead. That's why I want to offer you something."

"Offer what?"

"Do you want to live again? This time as a human, not edo tensei. And you too will live not in the shinobi world, but in another, more peaceful world."

"What did you say? Back to life?"

"Yes. What do you think?"

"Huh… If you have that kind of power, better take me to where Haku is. I don't want to live again."

"Don't worry, I will also revive Haku. I want you two to live together again. This time you have to live happily."

"Why are you like that? What is so special about me that you want to do all this to me?"

"Because I saw all of your past. And I'm not satisfied with the end of both of you. Just because you were born in a land of conflict, you have to live such a tough life. And this is my main reason, I want Haku to live happily with you. Lastly, Haku realized that you didn't think of him as just a killing tool when he revived in edo tensei, and that was very painful and sad in my opinion. I want the two of you to live happily, this time not as shinobi partners, but as family. What do you think?"

Hearing the offer, made Zabuza tempted. If there is a chance, he really wants to live with Haku again and make him happy. "I want to be with him again. I want nothing more than to live with him. He is a child that I cherish and love. I want to make him happy." Zabuza replied.

"Understood. I will revive you together with Haku in another world. But I can't manage everything, I can only send your souls to that world. The rest, you have to try yourself to achieve your desires. Of course I'll help you there if you need help. You also retain your abilities and memories as a shinobi. So far, any questions?"

"Do I have to fight in this world too?"

"Of course. But not like the shinobi world. In this world, 80% of the people have super powers of various kinds. You have to be strong to be able to live safely there."

"I understand. I'll try myself. So send me now. You better keep your promise and reunite me with Haku as a family." Zabuza said.

"Take it easy. I will definitely keep everything I say. See you again. Good luck." Said the creature then the world became completely black.

When he wakes up from his sleep, Zabuza realizes that he has been reborn into his new world. And since then, Zabuza has continued to practice and learn new ninjutsu that he got his knowledge of from the mysterious creature that sent him here. In addition to retraining his body to become a reliable fighter in silent assassination, Zabuza is always looking for all available information to find out more details about the world he lives in.

In his life here, Zabuza lives in a snowy village that is very remote because it is a shinobi village similar to Kirigakure but smaller in scale. And at the age of 11, Zabuza was happy when his older sister, who was married, gave birth to a baby boy and was named Yuki Haku because Zabuza and his older sister belonged to the kekkei genkai clan, Yuki. The situation in the village is very similar to what happens in the shinobi world, clan kekkei genkai are feared and hunted.

When Haku was born, Zabuza often visited Haku and played with him as his uncle. And when he was 15 years old, Zabuza went downtown to prepare for his new life with Haku when he grew up. He is considered a traitor to the village for violating village rules and leaving the village. That's why he didn't even know that shortly after he left for the city, his sister was killed by her husband who found out that his sister had kekkei genkai abilities and Haku also killed his own father because he was nearly killed too.

Because he was still a child, Haku was then locked up and trained to be a killing tool for the village. When Zabuza found out about this 4 years later, he went back to the village and killed all the village officials and destroyed the village together with Haku and took Haku away from there. Haku forced to participate in killing the higher-ups together with Zabuza because he didn't want Zabuza to be the only one who sinned for saving him. Since then, Haku and Zabuza have become very close partners and family.

And for the past 5 years, Zabuza has continued to train Haku's abilities until at the age of 15, Haku has become a more dangerous shinobi than him. Fortunately, Haku already has always a kind and sincere heart so that Haku doesn't take his bad experience as a shinobi in his village too seriously when he is forced to become a murderer for his village and accepts everything he has experienced with steadfastness.

In the city, before picking up Haku, Zabuza had become a police officer who was in training so he could support Haku in the city. His great ability in investigating a case was recognized by the police so that he rose through the ranks quickly. His fighting ability is also very great, especially in cases that require silence in solving cases. It was so great that Zabuza was offered some pro heroes to join as their sidekick. But Zabuza refused because he didn't want to be a hero.

Zabuza has opened his whole heart to Haku and dedicated his life just to make Haku happy. So when he found out that UA was under attack and Haku forced himself to restrain the villains and protect his friends, he was very angry and wanted to kill nomu who almost killed Haku. And also he was very angry when Bakugo said that Haku did useless things because Haku had sacrificed his sweat and blood to protect them all.

And even this time when Haku asked for his permission to take part in the sports festival, Zabuza allowed it only if Haku had fully recovered. And Zabuza also intends to come straight to UA and watch Haku in action. 'If anything happens to Haku again, this time I will definitely protect him. For that, I have to get stronger again. I also have to learn ninjutsu again so I can help Haku in the future.' Zabuza thought.
