His father killed his mother when it was discovered that he possessed a genetic ability, Hyōton ("Ice Release"), which allows him to mix wind and water elements to create ice,[ch. 24] and Haku then killed him. After wandering from place to place for a time he was found by Zabuza. He recognized Haku's talents and agreed to take him in as a tool. As a result, Haku becomes unquestioningly protective of and loyal to Zabuza, and only by being useful does he find a purpose in life.[ch. 29] Haku later meets Naruto while he is training (with Naruto initially thinking Haku was a pretty girl), and the two bond over their bonds (Haku's with Zabuza, Naruto's with Sakura). On this same mission, Haku ultimately gives his life in his mission to be useful to Zabuza, becoming a human shield to protect his master from Kakashi Hatake's Lightning Blade, becoming the first casualty in the series. This is not in vain, however, as a saddened Naruto uses Haku's death to redeem Zabuza.[ch. 30] Haku is resurrected by Kabuto later in the series to fight in the Shinobi World War until being sealed by the alliance.[ch. 516, 524] His voice actress in the Japanese anime is Mayumi Asano, and his English voice actress is Susan Dalian. Mona Marshall voiced Haku as a child..
