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

Zabuza has been called the Demon of the Hidden Mist; this is because during his childhood, he killed over 100 of the ninja academy graduates attending their final exam. In the exam, each student would be pitted against the other in a battle to the death. The massacre ended this tradition immediately.

His fame grew over the years, as he became both an ANBU and a member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. He eventually attempted to kill the Mizukage in a failed coup d’état, and subsequently fled. Just before leaving the Village, he discovered Haku, a child with a special kekkei genkai that allowed him to combine the wind and water elements to bring forth ice. He began training Haku to be the ultimate weapon.

Naruto is an ongoing Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Masashi Kishimoto. The plot tells the story of Naruto Uzumaki, an adolescent ninja who constantly searches for recognition and aspires to become a Hokage, the ninja in his village that is acknowledged as the leader and the strongest of all.

All the rookies aren’t very happy as they prepare to take the Chunin Exam. Especially for Naruto’s team who have so many rivals, they will need help from a fellow ninja named Kabuto to know what they’re up against. Will Naruto and his friends be able to last through the exam?
