Team 7 is on a motorboat, owned by Kaji, headed towards the Land of Waves. Kakashi threatened to abandon the mission if Tazuna did not provide an adequate explanation for lying about the mission's difficulty level. He told them that an extremely wealthy businessman called Gatō was responsible for his country's struggles, and could not afford any high ranked missions.
Later as they were walking, Kakashi Sensei suddenly told everyone to duck just before a giant sword spun over them and a ninja appeared on the handle of the sword. The ninja revealed himself to be Zabuza Momochi, a missing-nin from Kirigakure.
"Give me the man," he demanded.
"Why on earth would we do that, You nearly took our heads off?!" Y/n shouted.
"That sword. That's the Demon of the hidden mist." When Kakashi recognised Zabuza, he was forced to use his Sharingan.
Sasuke immediately recognised it and explained, "along with Zabuza, that the Sharingan is a dōjutsu that can immediately see and anticipate all ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu at hand," he says.
"That means he can mimick the Jutsu," Y/n mumbled.
"Yeah, but only members of my clan wield the Sharingan.." Sasuke muttered.
Then Zabuza summoned a thick veil of mist, and Kakashi informed them to protect Tazuna. The great tension between the two jōnin causes Sasuke to have a panic attack, but Kakashi is able to calm him down.
"Sasuke, don't worry. I will protect you guys with my life," He assured.
"I wonder about that. ," Zabuza states and prepared to strike all with his sword.
Y/n quickly rushes in as a shield pulling out her Kunai ready for battle. Zabuza appears in between Tazuna and Team 7.
"It's over."
Kakashi raced toward them and stabbed Zabuza with his kunai just in time, but Zabuza revealed that he merely used a water clone. He then sliced Kakashi in half, but Kakashi, who also used a clone, appeared behind Zabuza, catching him off guard, and held a kunai to Zabuza's throat. But he was tricked.
