NARUTO-THE ASSASSIN OF THE MIST-EPISODE 7-3 STARS

11. June 2008 by Ria.

So now our brave heroes (I’m talkin’ about Kakashi, and Sasuke), are traveling through the the fog to the land of waves, when Naruto opens his big mouth, and starts talking crap, when they’re supposed to be sneaking into town. At this time, Kakashi demands to know why Tazuna has ninjas scopin’ him out.

Tazuna tells of a man named Gato, some rich gangster, that controls all transport and shipping. When Tazuna finishes building this bridge, the land of waves will be joined to the land, and Gato will lose his control. Tazuna also tells Kakashi that he’s broker than a piece of glass, so he couldn’t afford to pay for a A or B level assignment.

In other words, the price for Jounin level ninjas to protect him was pretty steep, so he had to settle for Chunin protection. Only thing is, Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura are only Genins. Remember, Kakashi is Jounin, but he’s supposed to be along just for the ride, kind of, but he decides to continue with the mission. Anyway, our heroes approach the shore unnoticed.

Naruto starts doing stupid stuff, pretending that he sees ninjas about to attack, and starts throwing kunine knives all over, and almost kills a rabbit. ”That’s right Sakura, slap Naruto around a little bit for being a silly ass. But wait, Kakashi gets suspicious, and suspects a replacement technique at work, but by who?

Now Sabuza appears (a jounin ninja), and it’s on now. Uh oh, time for Kakashi to break out with his sharingan, a special rare form of jutsu. This means Kakashi can copy certain kinds of jutsu, and reflect the attack right back to the opponent. Zabuza builds up his chakra for a hidden in the midst jutsu.

He’s also a master of the silent killing technique, and the sharingan can’t fully neutralize it. Now the mist gets thicker and thicker, and Sasuke psychologically wigs out, I guess cause he had to be completely still, or end up a Zabuza casualty. Zabuza sneaks up between Tazuna, and the gang, but Kakashi strikes first.

He gets a lick in, but Zabuza escapes the attack with a water clone jutsu. The episode ends with my man Kakashi putting a knife to Zabuza’s throat, but this battle is far from over. Stay with me folks right into the next episode, to see what happens next!
