Ayanokouji: Defective Shinobi

Chapter 7: An Extension of Team 7

Going through trees, I caught up towards the lake where a small bridge was destroyed. In a water-like prison, most likely from a jutsu, was Kakashi and his uncovered sharingan. Sakura stood back next to the Bridge Builder barely holding onto a kunai as Naruto and Sasuke were trying to figure out a way for Kakashi to escape from the water prison.

As long as Zabuza kept focus, Kakashi was never going to get out of that prison. 

The two were throwing shuriken towards Zabuza only for him to calmly catch and dodge them. He was very nimble despite wielding a greatsword. 

Walking on water, he toyed with Sasuke and Naruto as Kakashi was still trying to find ways to escape the prison. The situation felt hopeless for these genin. 

Naruto: Sasuke, let's save sensei by working together!

Looking at Naruto, he nodded.

At that moment, Naruto created multiple shadow clones as They all went running towards Zabuza. 

Zabuza: Shadow clones, really?

Slashing them apart, a giant smokescreen was created. Through the smoke, Sasuke emerged with a giant shuriken as he launched it towards Zabuza, where he launched forward to meet it with his greatsword. The shuriken, as I predicted, dissipated and Naruto emerged as he punched Zabuza right in the face, sending him down into the water. A great one-two punch. 

However, Zabuza still kept his control over the water prison jutsu. 

Zabuza: A pretty clever move. But that's never going to be enough to phase me. 

Looks like they've done as much as I think they can right now. Time to end this when he's completely distracted.  

Taking out my two katana, I streamed chakra as I positioned myself for a single move. 

In almost all of my sword forms, there is only one constant. Each of them kill the person in question perfectly. Whether it be dismemberment or worse, it is done instantly. However, that isn't the case with this one, a form I added during my training. 

Me: Ancient Sword Art: 101st form.

Crackling the ground I stood, sparks flew off my sword as I reached full speed with my swords positioned to the right. 

Coming through like a missile, Zabuza looked over to see me right in front of him. 

Zabuza: What?!

Going right through him, I slashed his abdomen and neck, as the electricity jolted the injuries closed and sealed them. Chakra continued to stream on him. 

I'd like to interrogate him about the whereabouts of the other six swords of the mist so he will only be put on the brink of death. Once I get the information needed, he'll bleed out when the chakra wears out. That is the form I created.

Me: Prolonged Execution

Falling to the ground, Zabuza tried to grab his injuries but he saw that no blood was coming from them. Th water prison broke apart as did his shadow clone. Kakashi escaped as I grabbed Zabuza from the scarf and dragged him to a tree where I sat him up. 

Naruto: What was that?!

Sasuke: I couldn't even see him. 

Me: Shut up. Let me finish my business with Zabuza. From what I can tell, you all were going somewhere else when he ambushed. It'd be in your best interest to leave.  

Kakashi appeared right behind me as he put a kunai to my neck. 

Kakashi: I don't know who you are, but you don't look like a shinobi from another village. You work alone?
