Naruto can mean “maelstrom”, and is also the name for a sliced stick of Kamaboko with a pink whirlpool design in the middle that is used as a topping for ramen which is also Naruto’s favorite food. The surname Uzumaki is a pun on “spiral”, while uzumaki refers to a three-dimensional spiral, like a whirlpool or vortex.

Zabuza Momochi is one of the first antagonists to be introduced in Naruto. He was once one of Kirigakure’s Seven Swordsmen of the Mist, a group of ninja that use particularly large swords in battle. Zabuza possesses a massive sword called Kubikiri H?ch? , which is later claimed by Suigetsu Hozuki after Zabuza’s death.

Haku is Zabuza Momochi’s right hand man and most faithful follower. He has a heavily androgynous appearance, so much so that when Naruto Uzumaki first meets Haku he ends up mistaking him for a girl, saying that “he’s prettier than Sakura!”. Before he started working for Zabuza, Haku lived as an orphan
