STORY

With Kakashi captured in Zabuza's Water Prison Technique, Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura are forced to defend against Zabuza's attacks. Kakashi tells them to run. Naruto instinctively moves to flee but feels the pain in his hand, remembering his oath. He decides to fight to save Kakashi and keep Tazuna alive, rushing forward and retrieving his forehead protector from under Zabuza's foot. He tells Sasuke that he has a plan, and uses his Shadow Clone Technique to completely surround Zabuza's clone. With one swing of his sword, most of Naruto's clones scatter and disappear. The remaining Naruto passes a Fūma Shuriken to Sasuke, who senses his teammate's plan. Sasuke uses the Shadow Shuriken Technique, throwing two shuriken at Zabuza. Zabuza easily catches the first shuriken but only dodges the second at the last moment. Once past him, the second shuriken transforms back into Naruto, who had disguised himself to trick the superior ninja. Naruto throws a kunai at Zabuza, forcing him to break his technique, freeing Kakashi from his prison.
