We open with an uber-misty boatride, and our first look at a combustion engine! It's turned off. They sail under Tazuna's bridge, which is a giant piece of engineering. Tazuna expounds on the problems of his land, which mainly stem from Boss Gato, a ruthless ninja-wielding businessman. Then Tazuna plays Squad Seven like a [i]fiddle[/i], going on at length about all the horrible things that'll happen if they leave. It totally works, and is pretty great. The Land of the Waves is kind of like a cross between rural Japan and Venice. Very nice design. Naruto vows to not let Sasuke do all the important stuff, so does what he does best - go ridiculously overboard, flinging kunai about with gay abandon. He successfully traumatizes a small rabbit, but the rabbit itself sets off Kakashi's awesome ninja sense.
From nowhere, Zubochi from last episode throws his ridiculously large sword and then uses it as a perch to let Squad Seven gape in awe. Zubochi knows Kakashi, or as he calls him, the Copy Ninja and remarks on Sharingan. This trips out Sasuke. Interesting. Kakashi starts to raise his eyepatch/head-band and we just might've flicked the switch to 'on.' Naruto and Sakura have no idea what Sharingan means, so I don't feel left out. Kakashi reveals his magic eye, which I can't help but notice the scar on, and it's also the kind of eye Sasuke thought about on the guy he wanted to kill. Kakashi's magic eye means he's copied a thousand ninja arts, making him Naruto's version of Taskmaster which [i]awesome[/i].
Zubochi hits the water, standing [i]on[/i] the water, and uses his jutsu to make a lot of mist. Kakashi lets us know that Zubochi is no joke - his talents revolve around clipping people quick and quiet, but does encourage the kids that if all goes wrong, they'll only die. This doesn't encourage the kids at all. Zubochi lists off all the places where he could just kill a man. Zubochi's urge to kill is an actual oppressive feeling for Sasuke, but he Kakashi chills him out a little by promising to protect him. I'm sure Sqaud Seven get the shock of their life when Zubochi appears in the middle of the kids' formation around Tazuna, and Zubochi bats them away like handballs. Kakashi's on Zubochi in an instant - but it's just the latter's water clone. The real Zubochi's on Kakashi - and [i]that's[/i] just a water clone, Zubochi's trick Kakashi saw [i]just a minute ago[/i]. "It's over," says Kakashi.
