Chapter 22 : Team 10 Arrive (Rewrite)

Unlike Shinobi who travel at a very fast speed, especially in places like a forest. Team 7 in the canon with Tazuna were travelling at a very slow speed because Tazuna could not travel any faster.

This lets Team 10 easily catch up to Team 7 without any problem. The most interesting thing about this mission to Kirito was the simple fact of how easy it was to catch up to Team 7.

In the Conon, this would have been equally easy but there was no reinforcement. Why ? he has no idea but still he would like to figure that out in the future.

When Team 10 finally reached the location where Team 7 was supposed to be, they realised that they were already under attack by Zabuza Momochi.

[Kakashi POV]

I was given a simple, escort mission by Hokage Sama with my team to the land of waves but this is turning into troublesome.

First, there were those two Chunins, the demon brothers. Not a big problem to be honest. Sasuke took care of them.

Despite not knowing what going on, he acted wonderfully. Hard to believe that Uzumaki kid took the rookie of the year position from Sasuke.

The only lead down was Sakura. She is not currently fit to be a Kunoichi. The only thing which was making her good was her excellent chakra control and knowledge.

After taking care of those two little Chunins, I talk with Tazuna and figure out that the bastard lied to us from the very beginning.

Gato of the shipping industry is currently targeting Tazuna. This simply makes this entire mission a B-rank or possibly an A-rank mission.

This is not something where we are supposed to bring the new Genins. If it's not war of course.

But those green leaves are too good for their good. A little emotional blackmail from Tazuna and here we are.

Doing a mission which we should not and facing an enemy which again we should not.

Zabuza Momochi is an elite Jonin rank ninja and although I can handle him but not in this environment where the terrain is of his advantage and I have 3 new Genins to protect.

<END POV>

----

Everything happened very fast. The moment Zabuza came, he started to target Kakashi.

Kakashi shown is as Sharingan at the start, while Zabuza unsheathed his iconic Kubikiribōchō, the executioner's blade.

Without any hesitation, Zabuza charged at Kakashi, swinging his massive sword in a wide arc. Kakashi deftly dodged the attack and countered with a swift strike from his kunai. However, Zabuza was able to block it with his sword and quickly launched another attack, this time with incredible speed.

Kakashi barely managed to dodge the attack, but his coat was sliced in half, revealing his muscular physique. Angered by the attack, Kakashi charged at Zabuza, his chakra Kunai against the executioner's blade. The sound of metal echoed across the battlefield as the two powerful weapons collided.

Zabuza grinned, impressed by Kakashi's skill. He swung his sword in a diagonal slash, but Kakashi was able to block it with his Kunai. The force of the attack sent Kakashi sliding back several feet, but he quickly regained his footing.

The two ninjas continued to exchange blows, their weapons clashing and ringing out with every strike. Kakashi used his speed and agility to dodge Zabuza's attacks, while Zabuza relied on his brute strength to overpower his opponent.

As the fight wore on, Kakashi began to gain the upper hand, landing several hits on Zabuza and causing him to stagger. However, Zabuza was not one to be underestimated. With a sudden burst of energy, he swung his sword with incredible force, striking Kakashi in the chest and sending him flying through the air. Clearly, this version of the fight was not exactly like the anime.

Kakashi crashed to the ground, his Kunai clattering beside him. Zabuza walked over to him, a wicked grin on his face. He raised his sword to deliver the final blow, but Kakashi, with all his strength, threw a shuriken at Zabuza's arm, causing him to drop the sword.

This was the position Kakashi was in at this moment. He knew that he could easily get out of this situation but what about his team?

They are not strong enough to even able to run away from Zabuza.

Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura watched the entire battle and they were becoming more worried about their sensei.

Naruto wanted to do something but every time he thought about something, he could only think about him dying here. The Killing intent in the air was heavy.

Sasuke was trembling in fear. This was the first time he was feeling like this after getting targeted by his brother.

Sakura on the other hand was taken aback by Zabuza's killing intent and was almost in the verse of collapsing.

But when everything was looking lost. Suddenly team 10 arrived there. Asuma, Shikamaru, Kirito and finally Ino directly join team 7.

Zabuza was not an idiot to fight 2 elite Jonin-level shinobi alone. Especially when one of those shinobi is the copy ninja Kakashi. Wounded may it be but dangerous nonetheless

He does not care about all the Genins. Haku can take care of them easily. But right now handling both Kakashi and Asuma with their Genin team is going to be hard.

Unwillingly he had to retreat this time around. He needs to get another strong Jonin to even the odds here for him.

With that, he flicked away after saying. "I will meet you two soon, Kakashi of the Sharingan and Asuma of the 12 guardians".
