Chapter 157 The Possibility of Recovering the Seven Ninja Swords

"Seiya, you arranged for Chojuro and the others to stay in a hotel, and brought me to this place called Wave Country. It shouldn't be just because you're bored, right?"

The Land of Waves is a very small island country that was once occupied by a merchant named Cardo.

Of course, these things are all important, but the focus is on the plot of Wave Country, which is the first copy that the protagonist group Team 7 has to fight in the strict sense.

The dungeon boss that appeared here was also closely related to their Hidden Mist Village.

When Seiya brought Mei Terumi to this small country, Cardo and his criminal gang had been defeated, and the residents of Wave Country, led by Dazna, were thriving and were building a bridge.

Because Cardo once recruited escaped ninjas such as Zabuza Momochi as his thugs, the people of Wave Country actually had no good feelings towards the so-called "ninjas" before.

But since Cardo, Zabuza Momochi and others were defeated, and the people who defeated them and saved the country were also ninjas, the Wave Country has greatly changed its view of ninjas.

"Uncle, do you know where Zabuza Momochi's grave is?"

When they heard Seiya's question, the uncle from Wave Country who was building the bridge and Mei Terumi beside Seiya were stunned.

Whether it was the people from Wave Country or Mei Terumi, they all naturally knew Zabuza Momochi.

The former was surprised by Seiya's question because the other party obviously did not expect that someone would come here to look for Zabuza Momochi.

The latter reason why Mei Terumi was surprised was that she did not expect that Zabuza, an A-rank rebel ninja from Kirigakure and one of the former Seven Ninja Swordsmen, would die in such a small place.

When the uncle heard Seiya asking about Zabuza, he realized that Seiya and Mei Terumi were both ninjas, but he didn't know whether they were enemies or friends, so he looked at a loss at this moment.

"You don't have to be too scared. Although we are ninjas, we are regular ninjas from the ninja village. Unlike those traitorous ninjas like Zabuza, we will not kill innocent people..."

Seeing the panicked residents of Wave Country, Seiya was still explaining when a middle-aged man wearing a conical hat and with an unshaven face heard the commotion and rushed over.

"My dear ninjas, my name is Dazna, and I am the bridge builder from the Land of Waves.

The demon Zabuza you are talking about was indeed in our Wave Country a while ago, but he is dead now, and his tomb is also on the edge of a cliff here.

Zabuza was defeated by Konoha's ninjas, but it was Kado's men who killed him. Even his tomb was built by Konoha's ninjas at that time."

Compared with other inexperienced people from the Wave Country, although Dazna is also an ordinary person with a miserable life, he is a man who has been to Konoha Village after all.

Being knowledgeable, he immediately noticed the ninja forehead protector on Seiya's head, which was the same one worn by the people around Zabuza.

This also means that the person standing in front of them is a ninja from the same ninja village as Zabuza.

Dazna couldn't tell whether this ninja who suddenly came to his door was here to seek revenge on Zabuza or was Zabuza's former friend, but in any case, he was an existence that ordinary people like them in the Land of Waves could not afford to provoke.

So if you listen carefully, you can tell that Dazna's answer is actually quite sophisticated.

The one who defeated Zabuza was a Konoha ninja, and the one who killed him was Kado and his gang, who completely wiped out their Wave Country in the whole process.

Of course, because the Konoha ninjas had helped them after all, out of humanitarianism, Dazna also spoke a lot of good things about Naruto and the others, saying things like how the Konoha ninjas had avenged Zabuza and buried him.

"I never thought that the rebel ninja from our Hidden Mist Village would be killed by Konoha in the end..."

When she heard that Zabuza was dead, Mei Terumi was actually quite sad and regretful.

To be honest, if the demon Zabuza had not died, she would be confident enough to persuade Zabuza to return to the village.

After all, the reason why the "Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Ninja" were sentenced to death was largely due to the various outrageous actions of the Fourth Mizukage under the influence of illusions.

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen were an important fighting force of Kirigakure. They had their reasons for rebelling against the village, so it is not impossible for them to be whitewashed.

But unfortunately, Zabuza is dead now, and even if he was killed by the Konoha ninja, because Zabuza was a traitor ninja, they in the Kirigakure had no right to ask for an explanation.

"Sure enough, we're still a little late. Zabuza is fine, but it's a pity for Mizunoe Haku. That's the bloodline of Ice Release..."

Mizunoe Haku is of the same age as Naruto and the others, but he is able to beat two protagonists in their explosive state at the same time. In Seiya's opinion, both his strength and potential are already quite impressive.

Among the young generation of Kirigakure, only Chojuro is somewhat capable. Seiya originally wanted Haku and Kimimaro to form the strongest Genin team with him, but now it seems that the plan has failed.

When the two came to Zabuza's tomb, looking at the beheading sword standing beside the tomb, a hint of surprise appeared on Terumi Mei's originally regretful face.

Although taking away the remains of the dead seemed a bit immoral, Mei Terumi had no scruples about it. Instead, she chose to directly pull out the beheading sword in front of the tomb.

She also said frankly that the beheading sword originally belonged to the village and it was not private property. She was just recycling it now.

Of the former Seven Ninja Swordsmen, only the twin swords, Ayu, remain in the Hidden Mist Village; the other swords are nowhere to be found.

In Terumi Mei's opinion, this trip was worthwhile as she was able to retrieve the beheading sword.

"Seiya, how did you know Zabuza and the Beheading Blade were in Wave Country?"

Because she wanted to maintain her ladylike image, Mei Terumi temporarily handed the beheading sword to Seiya for safekeeping, and when she returned, she also asked the biggest question in her heart.

"Zabuza is a traitor, and Orochimaru is also a traitor. Moreover, the ninjas in Sound Village are mainly traitors. In order to strengthen themselves, they naturally collected a lot of information about the traitors."

After hearing Seiya's explanation, Mei Terumi's eyes instantly turned red. After defecting, almost all of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen became traitors. If Seiya also knew the information about the other Ninja Swordsmen, wouldn't that mean...

The thought of the seven ninja swords returning to the Hidden Mist Village made Terumi Mei excited, so she looked at Seiya and said, "Besides Zabuza, do you know anyone else..."

"I do know information about Thunder Blade·Ya and Black Hoe Thunder Blade, Big Blade·Samehada and Hoshigaki Kisame. Retrieving Thunder Blade should not be a problem, but as for Samehada, it may not be as simple as you think.

As for the Bakuto Feimo, the Blunt Sword Douge, and the Long Sword Stitch, I suspect they might be in Konoha's collection vault. After all, the one who nearly wiped out the first group of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen was none other than the Konoha ninja Might Dai.
