Where was that insane speed when Kakashi was beating his ass, and even my fatass could have dodged that vertical slash he made when Kakashi was tending to Haku? Even if his movement speed is fast we have never seen him attack quickly. We have never seen him use that jutsu in a place were there isn't an abundance of water, so whatever destructive water jutsu he has is irrelevant unless he's fighting on or near a large water source.
Simple brute strength is pointless unless you have superior durability, otherwise someone who is faster then you will beat you. And Neji can kill Zabuza with one punch. So... *shrug*
The Mist doesn't cover an infinite area of land, and again it depends on if there's a water source around. Zabuza doesn't just randomly spout mist out of his ass. He needs a water source first. Same rules as above apply.
Despite that, even with mist activated it's not an automatic loss. Mist does not spread out infinitely, the only reason it was dangerous was because Kakashi and co. were on a bridge with no where to go. Weightless Lee's speed is incredible enough for him to, at the least escape from the mist depending on the area.
The location that this is taking place at is the ultimate answer really.
Where was Kakashi's speed when Zabuza almost killed him in their first fight?Maybe i watch a different Naruto from what you people watch because the one i watch Zabuza had the upper hand in their second fight until Kakashi's tracking dogs bit his arms.Let some big dogs bite your arms and lets see how fast you could swing a sword.
Zabuza only needed the mist to began with because Kakashi has a sharingan eye.You people act like the ony way Zabuza could beat anyone is if he is hiding in mist when the offical japanese ninja stats state he is a 9 out of 10 in taijutsu a 9 out of 10 in ninjutsu and pretty much a 8 or higher at every other ninja skill besides genjutsu
Haku also was getting slower by the time the sharingan awakened because of how much chakra was being drained using that technique. Sasuke could also see Lee fine..he just couldn't react. Haku also wasn't trying to kill Sasuke nor Naruto.
Exactly the japanese manga stated that the demonic ice mirrors use alot of chakra to keep up and haku moving at high speeds also burns up alot of chakra which is the reason Sasuke could track him at the end.Even Sasuke said he knew Haku was never trying to kill him even at the end when Sasuke sharingan emerged.As i said we don't know how powerful Haku was because he wasn't a killer.Based on what i read in the official japanese naruto guide's to become a Jonin a ninja need to know at least 2 elemental Jutsu so apparently Zabuza would have to know at least 2 right and the fact he wasn't just a regular Jonin he was a elite Jonin so he probably knew more than 2.
I also said this so let me repeat it.There was no way that Zabuza or Haku could win the fight again Naruto,Sasuke and Kakashi because if they did the show would be over.Think abou it...why didn't Haku try to kill Kakashi when Zabuza was injured up against the tree in their first fight?There would be no way for Kakashi to know Haku would throw needles at him so there would be no way to avoid it.Why didn't Zabuza's water clone didn't just kill Naruto and Sasuke instead of just punching them around a little.Why did Zabuza only swing his head cleaving sword once in their second fight and then put it on his back?Kakashi had no way to know where Zabuza was in the mist but Zabuza knew how to kill Kakashi just by using sound alone.
Most of you think just because Rock Lee and Might Gai can open the 8 inner gates that means they cant be defeated which is hilarious since opening 5 gates agaist Gaara who was a chunin level fighter almost got him killed.Zabuza is also better at taijutsu than lee is or even Kakashi.Might Gai is one of the fastest people on the show but none of the characters on naruto think Gai is a better ninja than Kakashi do they and Kakashi,Lee,Haku and Zabuza speed are all 8 out of 10 compared to Gai's 10 out of 10.Even if you look at Nenji and Rock Lee's stats after the time skip neither is even close to Zabuza's level yet.Rock Lee stats are basically the same as they were when the show started.
I doubt Neji and Rock Lee together could beat Zabuza never mind Zabuza and Haku together.
