I think the whole Zabuza washes away blood thing is invalid since Hidan's best trait as a ninja is that the opponent doesn't know what his technique is. Zabuza could easily kill him with Hidden mist+Silent killing but he wouldn't know to do that straight of the bat. I don't remember his fight with Kakashi well but I'm pretty sure in there first encounter Zabuza only used HM straight away to impair Kakashi's Sharigan. Zabuza likes to get up close too since he wield's Kubikiribocho and once up close Hidan's not gonna let him leave close combat engagement since that's all he has. I think by the time Zabuza would use HM, Hidan would have drawn blood and setting up the ritual in the mist.
