Creation and History of Hidden Mist Jutsu


The information related to the history of the creation of Hidden Mist Jutsu is shrouded with mystery. This ninjutsu was first seen during the first mission of Team 7 outside of the Hidden Leaf Village, Lands of Wave Escort Mission. In this mission, Team 7 was confronted by Zabuza Momochi, an assassin and a rogue ninja from the Blood Mist Village.


During his confrontation against Kakashi of the Sharingan, Zabuza uses the Hidden Mist Jutsu to disrupt Kakashi’s field of vision. With this jutsu, he fills the air with mist and is able to manipulate its thickness in his chakra. Although the user can himself cannot see in the mist, Zabuza tracked enemy movements by the sounds they made.


Zabuza used this technique to perform assassinations. It was stated that if the mist is thick enough, it can disrupt the vision of a Dojutsu as well. In the anime, Byakugan users were able to see through it. Although being an excellent technique, it is ineffective on the sensory type shinobi class as they are able to track target movements despite losing visual.
