Don't think he got his sword, so I'd guess not.

Jiraiya sealed the bodies of all the Leaf-nin who died, including the ANBU and Hiruzen, but didn't say anything about sealing up Mist-nin. After all, you can't extract much information from a corpse and Jiraiya's first priority after recovering the Leaf bodies was getting back to Konoha as fast as he possibly could.
Also, Zabuza was killed by Naruto, who then immediately went to help out another fight in progress, so there'd be no time to double-check that Zabuza really died.

Or go and have Zazabu try to hire you for a long term escort mission with no fixed end date.
Z knows Feign Death.

I'm stealing this phrase
Frozen meets Moana?Also, @Velorien, that chapter was so disney that my imagination represented it as a pixar animation.
All it needs now is for princess not-Haku to break out into a song about how she doesn't fit in with the tedium of her tribe and wants to go out into the world and express herself.
If Zabuza did fake his death, the question is what he did after that.
Everybody sure he's probably dead, a snow kunoichi not actually young enough to be his daughter waiting for him, and having had his loyalty to the village worn to the bone. Well.
A man who spent his career hunting missing ninjas could take that knowledge and experience and turn it to a different purpose, now couldn't he?

You know what. You're absolutely right... he joined Akatsuki, didn't he?

- Yes.
Akatsuki? You mean he joined the Sage of the Six Paths!

I was more thinking that he'd have tracked the Akatsuki to try to find Yagura. ...maybe, anyway.

There's a reason Disney is a multi-billion dollar company.

We haven't noticed him joining Leaf. Unless Jiraiya (who is totally maybe the Sage now) just didn't tell us.

So not only did Mastermind Hazou join Leaf, he brought along his own S class escort?

Based just on what's been actually shown on the page (as oppposed to the extra stuff I know from GM notes), I'd say the Sage is a little beyond S-class. You remember the pangolins & Kagome telling you about how he created a dimension, right?

I was actually referring to Zabuza, but it's telling that you think I was referring to the Sage.
e: Also, Kagome isn't the most reliable source.
e2: That said, if Kagome is right about how bloodlines were originally induced -- Jutsu encoded into one's body -- I wonder what the jutsu behind the Uzumaki and Uchiha bloodlines was?

See this casual reality warping was why we wanted to see you in the chunin exams. You versus velorien as the final match, mountains collapsing with ezach dodged blow, forgotten ninjutsu weilded with impunity, and all the while oliwhail running around defeating the invasion he dropped out of the tourney to take on.
So there was no vote prompt at the end of the update.
Is a final decision on the new system coming soon or is it still under consideration?

[X] The Death of Shikigami
It's possible Zabuza went into the fight planning to 'feign death' and abort being Mist's hunter-nin from that point on, and thus may not have interest in joining Akutsuki OR Leaf. The question of what he's up to now/where he's gone would be pretty hard to answer in that scenario though

We're going to be continuing interludes and flashbacks. Prompts are encouraged and welcomed, but not required
We're currently exploring how much/little we'd need to tweak DFAE and HERO 5 to really work, so that's still ongoing.
