Boom…

Ameyuri's lightning attack snakes forward on a straight path, aiming for Omoi and his teammate's lives.

"This time we are done for sure!"

Omoi sighs in helplessness.

Whoosh…

Suddenly, a figure jumps in front of the lightning attack. The figure blocks the lightning attack with his bare hands.

"It's still too soon for you to give up, young man!"

Ah!

"Vice-commander Kakashi!"

Omoi recognizes the figure, and relief appears on his face.

"Reinforcement is here!" His teammates celebrate with joy.

Kakashi turns towards them and relays an order.

"All of you fall back and regroup with the rest of the platoon. I will hold her back."

"Yes, commander!" The group hastily retreats. Only Omoi stays behind.

"You aren't going back with the rest of your group?" Kakashi glances at him as he neutralizes Ameyuri's attack.

Smoke rises from Kakashi's hands as the coating of wind chakra on his hand dispersed.

"Commander… I… Can I stay back and fight?"

Hmm…

Kakashi notices the determination in Omoi's eyes.

"Alright, I will allow it. However, you must follow my orders and should absolutely retreat at the first sign of danger. Is that clear?"

"Ys… yss… captain! No, I mean commander. I mean yes!" He stutters with his words.

"It's fine as long as you understand. Also, just call me Kakashi-senpai." Kakashi shrugs off his shoulders and focuses his attention on Ameyuri, who is charging towards him with the twin blades Kiba.

"That's definitely one of the seven most swords, Kiba! They were lost after Kiri's civil war. It's a good opportunity to retrieve them."

Swish… swish…

Kakashi makes a series of hand signs.

"Wind Release: Pressure canon,"

Kakashi inhales a large amount of air and spews out multiple rings of wind.

BOOM… BOOM…

The wind rings explode on top of Ameyuri and disperse the lightning around her body.

Fwish…

Kakashi draws a chakra blade and swings it toward Ameyuri to block her attack.

"It has been a while since I last wielded a sword."

Clang… clang…

Kakashi engages in a sword fight with her and is evenly matched against her sword skills.

"Woah! Amazing!"

The rest of the shinobi stares at Kakashi's battle in amazement.

"Commander Kakashi's Kenjutsu skills are almost on par with one of the seven mist swordsmen." They marvel at his Kenjutsu proficiency.

"Of course!" One of the veteran shinobi nods his head in affirmation.

"Commander Kakashi Hatake is the son of Supreme Commander Sakumo Hatake, who is known for his powerful Kenjutsu skills. It's said that Sakumo-sama's sword skills are greater than that of former Seven Mist Swordsman." The war veteran continues.

"Back then, during the second shinobi war, Sakumo-sama fought against multiple members of the Seven Mist swordsman. Not only did he survive the battle, he managed to kill two of the seven mist swordsmen and escape from their ambush. This battle marked the legend of the White Fang of Konoha, since his white chakra blade reaped the lives of enemies like the fangs of a wolf." The war veteran shares his experience of the battle.

"Commander Kakashi is no less amazing than his father. Perhaps he is even more amazing." Omoi, who has turned into a Kakashi fan at this point, interrupts them.

Meanwhile, Kakashi easily parries the attack of Ameyuri and gains an advantage over her in terms of Kenjutsu skills.

"It would be a bit difficult if she was in control of her body. But with her free will gone, she is only as good as her puppeteer in terms of skills."

Seeing Ameyuri locked in a deadlock with Kakashi, Kabuto decides to use her trump card to finish the battle.

Whoosh…

Ameyuri kicks the ground and retreats from Kakashi. She stabs her twin blades into the ground and makes a series of quick hand signs. She picks up the twin blades and crosses them as she points them toward the sky.

"Secret Technique: Thunder sword Kiba: Sword of Punishment,"

Bzzt… Crackle…

A large amount of lightning gathers in the sky and forms a gigantic sword in the air. The giant lightning sword suspends over Ameyuri's head as she slowly points the twin blade towards Kakashi. The lightning blade falls down on Kakashi's forehead, similar to an executioner's guillotine to sever Kakashi in half.

"Unfortunately for you, a secret technique is only as powerful as its wielder, and currently, in terms of lightning jutsu, I am slightly more powerful than you."

HAAH…

Kakashi stretches out his palm in front of his chest.

BZZT… CRACKLE. CHIRP… CHIII…

Purple lightning gathers in Kakashi's hands. Multiple bolts of purple lightning flicker around his body and rip apart the nearby ground. Kakashi stretches his palm back and shapes the purple lightning into the form of a spear.

"Secret technique: Purple Lightning: Chidori Sharp Spear,"

Kakashi wields the lightning spear and smashes apart the giant lightning sword with a single swing of his spear.

Whoosh…

He flickers in front of Ameyuri and stabs the spear through her chest. The purple lightning spear pierces through Ameyuri's heart. The lightning paralyzes her movements and Ameyuri slowly regains control over her body as Kakashi's earlier attack destroys the command seal within her body.

Ameyuri's body glows with white light as the dust and ashes around her start to dissipate. She casts a last glance towards Omoi and remarks.

"I'll be waiting for you on the other side." With these last words and a smile, Ameyuri's body and soul fade away, leaving behind a stunned Omoi.

"Did I just get proposed?" He stands in a spot with a stunned expression.

Kakashi recovers the twin blade Kiba and stores them. He turns to the rest of the group.

"Recover the bodies of your fallen comrades and erase all trace of their blood, hair, or anything, for that matter. We don't want them to fall into the enemy's hands."

"Yes, Senpai!"

The group hastily follows Kakashi's order and recovers the bodies of their fallen comrades.

Meanwhile, the rest of the reinforcement also arrives.

"Kakashi Hatake!" Zabuza joins the battle, with Haku by his side.

"Zabuza, it's been a while since I last saw you." Kakashi nods at him.

Zabuza wields a giant sword on his shoulder and stares at the battle between Juzo and the captain.

"Let me fight this battle. I would also like to see how I fare against my predecessor."

"Kakashi-sama, please let me fight that person from the Yuki clan." Haku requests to battle the Ice release user from the Yuki clan.

"Hmm… do you by any chance know that person?" Kakashi enquires.

"Mm…" Haku nods his head.

"He is my uncle! I met him once I was small. He came to pick up my mother and escape from the Land of Water. However, my mother refused to leave with him. Later, my father discovered her identity as a member of the Yuki clan because of me. He gathered the villagers and the villagers sentenced her to death."

Tears flow from Haku's eyes as he recalls his past.

"Very well!"

Haku wipes his tears and walks towards the Yuki clan member.

"Uncle!" He utters these words as he confronts the latter.

"You are… you are… Kohaku's son. Haku!"

Tears flow from Haku's uncle's eyes as he recognizes Haku.

"It's good to see that you are alive." Haku's uncle smiles at him as he fights the several vice-captains.

"Please leave it to me!"

Haku turns towards the various vice-captains and requests.

"But… he… you!" The vice-captains hesitate, as Haku is just a young man.

"Let me fight him!" Kakashi's voice echoes in their ears.

"Commander Kakashi!" The vice-captain notices Kakashi and nods in respect.

Haku takes a step forward toward his uncle.

Shiing… Shiing…

Several ice shards gather behind Haku's back to form a halo of ice.

"Another Ice Release user!" The vice-captain's eyes widen in shock.

"Ice Release: Song of a thousand spear,"

Haku claps his hand and the several ice shards around him turn into multiple ice spears.

BANG… BANG…

Ice spears rain down on the battlefield and break apart the ice domain and shatter the several ice mirrors in the vicinity. The ice spears continue to rain down and pierce through the Yuki clan member's body, incarcerating him in a place.

"Uncle!"

Haku towards his uncle with wet eyes.

"Haku!"

The Yuki clan shinobi gently caresses Haku's face as his body shimmer with a white glow.

"Sometime after I left the village, I came to visit Kohaku again. However, I couldn't find any traces of you and your mother. Later, I learned from the villagers that both of you are dead. I was heartbroken after hearing the news. Later, I was captured and experimented upon. In one of those gruesome experiments, I lost my life."

Haku's uncle reveals his fate after Kohaku's death.

"The name of my captor is Orochimaru!"

Haku's uncle slowly dissipates and vanishes, finally freed from a lifetime of agony.

"So, that's how it is!"

Kakashi nods as he walks beside Haku and gently pats the latter's back.

"I am sure your uncle will find peace after knowing you are safe and sound."

Mm…

Haku wipes his tears and turns in the direction of Zabuza's battle.

'Uncle, Mom! I finally found my family.'

----------------------

A/N:- After the bridge battle with Haku and Zabuza, Izuna instructed Haku in the ice release. So, it is because of this Haku one-shot his opponent when others were struggling. Keep in mind when Haku's uncle was alive, he was modified by Orochimaru to increase his strength.
