Chapter 735: Unfulfilled Desires!
[A/N: A small note. Orochimaru's Edo Tensei isn't as good as what Kabuto's was during the Fourth War (The fact that old Hiruzen was able to fight Hashirama and Tobirama should say it all). While I have taken some liberties with the jutsu, this aspect isn't changed. Hashirama, Tobirama and Sakumo are still rank S, but they are barely at that rank. In addition, Sakumo is resisting Orochimaru's control to an extent. That should answer the doubts about Kakashi Vs Sakumo.]
"The rumors don't do your strength any justice, Might Guy!" Zabuza claimed after getting kicked yet again. Even though Guy didn't open any of his inner Gates, he was still strong enough to easily keep Zabuza at bay.
It didn't matter what Zabuza threw at him, Guy just brushed everything off. The thick mist proved to be utterly ineffective. His water jutsus failed to hit Guy. Any Water Clones he created would be dispelled by one punch or kick. Luckily, his body could heal automatically, or several of his bones would have been broken as well. Of course, since Guy didn't open the Inner Gates, he didn't have any means to completely destroy Zabuza's body either.
Another powerful punch landed on Zabuza's sword as Guy asked, "Oh, there are rumors about me in the Land of Water? I wonder what they say about Konoha's Blue Beast!"
Zabuza grinned and replied, "You've no idea, do you? Tell me, did you ever fight against an Elite Jounin from Kirigakure?"
Guy was surprised. He couldn't recall ever fighting against any strong ninja from Kirigakure. What Zabuza didn't know was that Guy was terrible at remembering faces.
As they battled, Zabuza thought, 'If there is one ninja who the entire Kirigakure, no matter the faction, is afraid of, it's this monster! After the end of the Third Great Ninja War, he was the highest priority target for all Kiri ninjas.
We were ordered to kill him if we came across him, even if it cost our lives. From what I heard, elaborate plans were also created to eliminate him. Kirigakure didn't want to see another ninja like Might Duy appear in Konoha.
However, before any of the plans could be implemented, the Civil War began and all plans were put on hold. By the time the Mizukage faction could focus on him again, he had already become a Jounin and all plans were shelved. Instead of killing him, all top ninjas in the village were ordered to avoid confrontation with him at all costs!'
