Chapter 145 - 144: Ruining Zabuza's Entrance
Kakashi's gaze hardened as he stared at the snow-white rabbit. His instincts had been on edge ever since they arrived. He had felt someone watching them from the shadows.
And now, he understood why.
Something was wrong with this rabbit.
The fur color was unnatural. Snow rabbits only turn white during winter when there's little daylight.
But this wasn't winter.
That meant the rabbit had been raised indoors, away from sunlight, a clear sign that it was being used as a substitution target.
Kakashi's body tensed as he thought, 'So, they are here already....'
Somewhere in the shadows, Zabuza was watching, silently observing his targets.
[Uchiha Madara: Kid, looks like you're in danger again. This time, it's a slightly stronger piece of trash. It might be a problem for others... but it'll be a walk in the park for you!]
[Ito Makoto: Grandpa Madara, so even you think he's strong? Perfect! He'll be my first subordinate!]
[Uchiha Madara: Hmph! A stronger piece of trash is still just trash. One punch should be enough to deal with him.]
