Start with the Mangekyō and leave Konoha with Madara.

Could it be that the Uzumaki clan’s strength has reached this level?

The sudden change in the Uzumaki clan made Sarutobi Hiruzen think deeply.

Faced with the deliberate conspiracy of the three major ninja villages, this small ninja village that has never been good at using force actually resolved the crisis quietly.

As for the team he sent out, no one was found alive or dead, and the reconnaissance team found nothing despite repeated investigations, so they had to give up in disappointment.

What Hiruzen didn't know was that this team had already had their hearts ripped out by someone and sunk to the bottom of the sea forever.

But there was one thing he was very clear about, that was... Konoha Village, as an ally of Uzushio Village, did not play any role in this crisis and had a completely nonchalant attitude.

This also led to the Uzumaki clan gradually becoming estranged from Konoha, and even the letters he sent to the Uzumaki clan leader seemed to fall into the sea and received no response.

Under normal circumstances, Hiruzen would not take these things to heart. After all, as the Hokage, there were more pressing matters waiting for him to deal with every day. However, it was not until Uzumaki Mito, the "pillar" of the family, gradually collapsed that he realized the seriousness of the problem.

The tailed beasts are like time bombs if they don't have the Jinchūriki as a container to restrain them!

At the meeting, the senior executives were extremely anxious. They all knew that they had to ask the Uzumaki clan for help. It would be best if they could get two gifted children willing to become Jinchūriki. This would not only solve the problem of the tailed beasts, but also ensure Konoha's future combat power.

But everyone has witnessed the relationship between Konoha and Uzumaki over the years, so it would be a bit shameless to ask them for people so openly.

"Humph, you all advised me not to send troops back then, but now you're telling me to do it? How can I, the Hokage, speak up about the Jinchūriki matter?"

Hiruzen slammed his Hokage hat down on his desk and looked around at everyone, fuming.

"What? Are you blaming us?"

Danzo looked up at him with a tepid tone.

"Hiruzen, you are getting old, isn't your memory getting worse?" He said lightly, "We only gave suggestions, but you were the one who gave the order."

"Although this is not a nice thing to say, it is the truth." Mitomon Yan also frowned slightly, "Besides, if we really sent troops to the Land of Whirlpools, who knows what would happen. This idea is somewhat biased."

Utane also advised: "Yes, after all, no one can predict what will happen in the future."

Hiruzen snorted coldly and rubbed his brow, "So what do you guys say, what should we do now?"

"Who says we have to borrow people? Don't we have people with Uzumaki bloodline who are willing to sacrifice everything for the village?" Danzo's voice suddenly became gloomy, "Tsunade and Nawaki, aren't these two the best candidates?"

Hiruzen immediately frowned, "Tsunade...is not good at sealing techniques. If she becomes a Jinchūriki rashly, it will only lower her strength. Besides, the actions of the Rain Country have become more and more frequent recently. The storm is coming. If we do this, we will undoubtedly lose an elite jonin."

"As for Rope Tree... he can be considered, but he is just a child now and there is no way he can control the power of the tailed beast in a short period of time!"

"Yes." Xiaochun said: "Only pure Uzumaki clan members can guarantee the stability of Jinchūriki, so we must go to the Uzumaki clan no matter what."

"Well... our past actions were certainly inappropriate, but fortunately, no tragedy occurred. I believe that as long as we clear up the misunderstanding, Uzumaki will accept us again." Mitomon Yan pushed his glasses, "We have to give it a try."

Danzo crossed his arms and said sarcastically, "That's easy to say. If we just send two people over there, they will give us the pure-blooded descendants?"

His words undoubtedly poured cold water on everyone.

"In this case... we must be extremely careful in selecting this messenger..."

Hiruzen pondered for a moment and finally decided on the candidate in his mind.

This is also the reason why Tsunade and Rope Tree appeared in the Land of Whirlpools.

I have to say, his idea is brilliant.

Because this pair of siblings are not only the prince and princess of Konoha, but also the direct grandchildren of Uzumaki Mito. The blood of both the Senju and Uzumaki clan flows in their bodies. They are the symbol of the good alliance between the first Hokage and the Uzumaki clan.

In other words, their mission to the Land of Whirlpools is no different from returning to their mother's home.

I think, even if the Uzumaki clan had some complaints about what Konoha did back then, they would not be embarrassed to attack these two, right?

The sun is rising and the sea breeze is cool.

"Sister, don't worry. I will complete the task assigned by the village beautifully!"

Nawaki turned his back and pointed at the Uzumaki family emblem behind him with his thumb raised, "I am the son of destiny who inherited the power of both the Senju and Uzumaki. I will inherit the will of my ancestors and become the man who will become the Hokage in the future!"

Tsunade stared at her brother in front of her and sighed helplessly.

She knew that if she couldn't find two children from the Uzumaki clan this time, then her brother and herself would have to take over their grandmother's burden and become Konoha's jinchūriki.

Soon, under Tsunade's guidance, the three of them had a smooth journey and went straight to the outside of Uzushio Village, stopping in front of the transparent air realm.

"We are Konoha's ninjas, Lord Mito's direct relatives. We are here today to discuss something."

The two Uzumaki people guarding the gate looked at each other, and at the same time formed seals to open the barrier, allowing the three people to enter the village.

In fact, before these three people went ashore, they were discovered by Uzushio Village.

Having experienced the turmoil of the night of genocide, the Uzumaki clan had long since been on high alert. In order to prevent tragedy from happening again, they set up defenses throughout the Uzumaki Country, putting every inch of land under the surveillance of the "Kagura Heart's Eye" so that they could obtain intelligence and react as soon as possible before the enemy invaded.

Before Tsunade and the others got close to the village, their news had already reached Shenyu's ears.

He immediately activated the reverse summoning technique and instantly descended from the thousands of miles away Iron Kingdom. Accompanying him were Uchiha Hikaru and... Orochimaru.

"Let them in." He said calmly.

"But..." The clan leader Uzumaki Soumei hesitated, "We have already decided to never have anything to do with Konoha again. If I am right, they must be here for the tailed beasts. Will this..."

"What do you think?" Shen Yu sat upright in the main seat, holding a glass of grape juice in his hand, looking at Xuanwo Kongming with a slightly scrutinizing look.

"Of course I don't want to hand him over!" Kong Ming snorted coldly, "I have seen the true face of Konoha after that incident!"

"Leave this matter to me." Shen Yu said softly.

"This..." Kong Ming was a little surprised.

"Don't want to?" Uchiha Guangxiu frowned slightly.

"Ah, no, no." Kong Ming immediately shook his head, "I just think that this is not fair to Lord Shen Yu. After all, you were the one who saved us."

"It doesn't matter. I want to make Konoha understand one thing." Shen Yu's mouth curled up slightly, "If you want to reach out and grab the blade, you must be prepared to get your hand cut and bleed."

"Isn't that right, Kushina?" He reached out and rubbed a little girl's head.
