Chapter 222 - Chapter 115: The Unspeakable Secrets of the Uzumaki Clan

After a description by Uzumaki Kurami and Kushina, Kamihane and others also simply understood the general process of the matter.

In recent years, although almost no one in the ninja world dared to rashly attack the Land of Whirlpools directly, the Uzumaki clan ninjas who went out alone still faced different degrees of danger, and almost every two years, members would disappear for no reason.

To this, the entire Uzumaki clan was very angry, but there was nothing they could do, because they found that apart from anger, they could not do anything.

Some people in the clan suggested to seek assistance from the Leaf Village, but the lack of action by the Leaf Village on the night of the Uzumaki clan's extermination had hurt the hearts of a considerable number of clan members, and even Uzumaki Kurami, the patriarch, was very cold towards the Leaf.

For survival, and also for the future of the Uzumaki clan, some elders in the clan still sent people to the Leaf Village, but the feedback they received was very disappointing.

"This situation of ninjas being out of contact is very complicated, and it is difficult for us to do anything. Which ninja village hasn't lost a ninja? Besides, your Land of Whirlpools is not only poor in resources, but also has a very awkward status in the ninja world. It is possible that they have taken the initiative to defect and leave the ninja village..."

Faced with the perfunctory and careless reply from the Leaf, the Uzumaki clan was extremely furious and felt that they had been greatly humiliated.

And Uzumaki Mito, the eldest princess whom they placed high hopes on, was even older at this time, and lived in seclusion in the Uzumaki Shrine all day long, without asking about world affairs, and had stepped into retirement life in advance.

Out of desperation, in order to avoid similar situations of clan members disappearing again, Uzumaki Kurami could only try to reduce the clan members' outward permissions as much as possible, and would not go out easily unless it was necessary.

But this also caused the Land of Whirlpools to close itself and slowly derail from the ninja world era.

Just a while ago, they suddenly received a message from the missing clan members from previous years, and Uzumaki Haruna, as a member of the reconnaissance team of Whirlpool Tide Hidden Village, was sent to the Land of Rain to investigate the whereabouts of the clan members.

Before the information could be received, Haruna's three-person team was directly out of contact.

And another team disappeared suddenly in the Eastern Sea area of the Land of Whirlpools while going out to fish, with no trace.

"If that's the case..." Kamihane rubbed his chin, thoughtfully.

It would be very complicated to lose contact in the Land of Rain, because the Land of Fire, the Land of Wind, and the Land of Earth all bordered this small country, and it was difficult to guess who had done it.

As for the Rock Hidden Village, it was unlikely, because Ōnoki knew that he was standing behind the Uzumaki clan. This behavior was tantamount to openly calling him out, unless he was tired of living.

The Sand Hidden Village had a high chance of doing it, and Kamihane was also suspicious of the Leaf.

Of course, there was also a possibility that Hanzo, the leader of the Land of Rain, had done it, but the possibility of this happening was very slim. He was a small country, without tailed beasts or strong strength as support, and there was no reason to move the Uzumaki clan.

And for the team that lost contact in the Eastern Sea of the Land of Whirlpools, Kamihane could immediately confirm that the Land of Water was the culprit.

Back then, although Kamihane "righteously" took action to help the Whirlpool Tide Hidden Village solve the action forces of the three major ninja villages, and thus forged a "friendly and mutual assistance" relationship with the Uzumaki clan, this did not mean that all enemies had completely let go of the Uzumaki clan.

Although this move made the three major ninja villages suffer, only the Rock Hidden Village knew how deep the Uzumaki clan's water was, because Kamihane only let Ōnoki escape in a despondent manner.

Under Kamihane's invisible deterrence, these Rock ninjas really did not dare to act rashly, at least not to attack the Uzumaki clan on the surface.

But the other two major ninja villages that suddenly lost their Kage did not know, and depending on the situation, the cunning Ōnoki did not publicize this news, just like the Second Tsuchikage did not publicize the fact that Kamihane had attacked the Leaf at night and challenged Hashirama.

It could only be said that they were worthy of being masters and apprentices who had lived through the Warring States Period, and their styles were no different.

This made the Sand Hidden Village and the Mist Hidden Village feel that their Kage personally led an assassination team to the Land of Whirlpools, but all of them had died overnight, and hatred arose spontaneously.

Kamihane pondered for a moment, and said to the little Kushina who was sitting on his lap, "Kushina, is Haruna a very important friend of yours?"

Kushina raised her small face, her voice crisp, "Yes, Haruna-nee always brings back a lot of strange little things for me from outside, she is the only nee-san who doesn't treat me like a child... it's a pity..."

Saying that, her eyes darkened.

"Don't worry, I think she should be safe for the time being." Kamihane said softly.

"Huh? Why?"

Because the Uzumaki clan people who are alive are more valuable... Kamihane smiled, "Uncle has a way to save her."

As soon as these words came out, not only Kushina, but every Uzumaki clan member on the seat was shocked, and Kurami was even more incredulous.

In their eyes, Kamihane's status was no different from a savior, and it would only be normal for him to take action when the Uzumaki clan was on the verge of extinction.

"Lord Kamihane, is what you said true?" Kurami couldn't help but ask.

"Of course I'm serious." Kamihane glanced at him lightly.

"But... but... how can such a trivial matter trouble you to take action..."

Kushina immediately cheered up, hugging Kamihane's arm with two small hands, and rubbing her chubby face, "If Uncle can save Haruna-nee back, then you will be Kushina's benefactor!"

"Ah, no!" She shook her head, her little eyebrows wrinkled together, "You are already Kushina's benefactor, that is... a super benefactor, Kushina is willing to dedicate everything for you!"

Kamihane reached out and rubbed her head, and said in a gentle tone, "Do you have a photo of Haruna?"

Kushina thought seriously for a while, and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "Yes!"

With that said, she jumped off Kamihane's lap, "patta patta" ran away, and soon brought back a photo from her room.

It was a two-person group photo. Kushina was riding on the neck of a girl in her seventeen or eighteen, holding a golden sunflower high in her hand. Both girls had bright smiles.

This delicate-looking girl was Uzumaki Haruna.

After Kamihane read it, he directly handed the photo to Uchiha Nian.

Nian immediately understood, opened his Mangekyō Sharingan, and the pattern on his left eye rotated gently, and "Kuye-biko" was activated, and the girl's face was reflected in his eyes without any difference.

At that moment, his vision seemed to travel through time and space, everything around him disappeared, and only countless mirror-like spaces were constantly folded, until he clearly "observed" everything around the girl.

It was a dark and dry bunker, with two bloodied people lying in the cage. They both had red hair, and Uzumaki Haruna was lying helplessly beside her companion, sobbing.

Outside the prison, a strong man was threatening her, and on his gray and white headband, he was wearing a Suna headband!

Nian watched for a long time before dispersing his eye power and returning his vision to reality, and nodded to Kamihane.
