"Captain, we've been discovered.”
The enemies hiding in the dark became alert when they saw the Whirlpool clansmen. They knew that they had been discovered.
"Attack. The goal is to obtain the sealing technique of the Swirl Race.”
The leader of the team was dressed like a ninja from the Dark Group. He wore a tanuki mask and pulled out the ninjato from his back to take the lead.
Soon after, more than twenty ninjas dressed in the same attire jumped out. They first threw out their shuriken and Kuna to attack.
"Bastard."
Swirl Kai was furious because a few more of his clansmen had fallen under the attack.
The furious Swirl Kai was actually very terrifying. As the clan leader, his strength was quite strong. He had the strength of a quasi-shadow level.
"Vajra Seal."
Chakra chains flew out from Swirl Qi's back. Several enemies were bound by the chains and then strangled.
"Uchiha, you should attack as well.”Flowing Maple said to Uchiha, who was protecting him.
"Young master, my mission is to protect you.”
Uchiha did not make a move. His most important task was not to kill the enemy, but to protect Flowing Maple.
"Getting rid of the enemy is the best protection for me. This is an order.”
Hearing Flowing Maple say that this was an order, Uchiha hesitated for a moment before making his move. However, he still observed Flowing Maple's side from time to time while fighting with the enemy.
"Are you scared silly?"
Flowing Maple lowered his head and asked Uzumaki Koshina. At this moment, Flowing Maple already knew that she was Uzumaki Koshina, the mother of the future main character.
However, Kyocinna was still a little loli around five years old at the moment. Moreover, it was impossible to tell Little Chili Pepper's personality at this moment. Her expression was blank and she was silent.
This was normal. For a five-year-old girl, her current experience was indeed like a nightmare.
"Attack me?"
Flowing Maple keenly sensed a strong wind coming from behind him. No, it was not attacking him, but Jiu Xinna.
Activating the Three Hook Jade Shura Eye, Flowing Maple turned his head and looked at the other party. The moment they looked at each other, he used the Shura Eye illusion to control the other party.
After controlling this ninja, Flowing Maple also wanted to attack the other ninjas, but after glancing at Kushina, Flowing Maple gave up.
He couldn't just leave Kushina alone when she was entrusted to his care.
Moreover, there was no need for Flowing Maple to make a move. The battle ended very quickly. Other than the leader who escaped, the others were basically dead.
Those who were caught had all committed suicide by consuming poison. The only one who survived was the one who was controlled by Flowing Maple's Shura Eye.
Swirl Qi's expression was very ugly. Although he had repelled the enemy, nine more Swirl clansmen had died, and even more were injured.
This was an elite team. If not for the fact that the members of the Whirlpool Race were all elites and had the help of Uchiha Uno and Uchiha Haruno, it would have been difficult to predict the outcome.
"Who sent you?" Flowing Maple asked the ninja who was being controlled by Shurunyan.
The controlled ninja did not speak. It was not that he did not want to speak, but he could not speak at all.
"Open his mouth and see." Flowing Maple said to Uchiha.
Uchiha nodded, opened his mouth, and pulled out his tongue.
Sure enough, there was a curse mark on it. It should be the curse mark of the Bane of Tongue. It was a curse mark created by Tuan Zang. Anyone who wanted to say anything about Tuan Zang would be unable to move or speak.
"Can Swirl Clan Leader break it?"
Flowing Maple asked Swirl Kai. To put it bluntly, this curse was also a type of sealing technique.
"Yes, I can." Swirl Awakener nodded and began to crack it.
This curse was indeed a little troublesome, but with Vortex Enlightenment's attainments in sealing arts, it took him some time to crack it.
After that, under Flowing Maple's control, the ninja revealed his identity, the mastermind behind the scenes, and the plan to target the Whirlpool Race.
As expected, it was someone from the Tuanzang Root organization. This time, Tuanzang and the other two Ninja Villages had joined forces. As for who was the initiator, no one knew.
"Damn it, we can't let this matter go like this.”
Swirl Qi's eyes were bloodshot. How could he just let the Swirl Race die like this?
"What does Swirl tribe leader plan to do?" Flowing Maple asked Swirl Kai.
"I'm going to ask Lord Naruto for an explanation.”
Flowing Maple smiled and laughed when he heard that. Was there any use in seeking an explanation from Yuan Fei and Sun Slash? At that time, Flying Ape Sun Slash would definitely cover up for the group.
"Swirl tribe leader, this witness alone won't affect the group. Of course, if you don't believe me, you can try.”
Swirl Qi was silent. He was actually also clear that the possibility of relying on this alone to deal with Tuan Zang was not high. But for the sake of his dead clansmen, he had to find Yuan Fei Ri Zhan no matter what.
After that, they did not encounter any attacks on the road. In addition to speeding up their journey, Flowing Maple and the others arrived at Woodleaf Village with the Swirl clansmen in less than a day.
"Flowing Maple, I'm going to see Naruto. I'll leave Jiu Xinna and the Whirlpool clansmen in your care for now.”
Swirl Kai asked Flowing Maple for help before bringing the controlled Ninja to Naruto Building.
"Uncle Yun, why don't you go with us?”Flowing Maple said to Uchiha.
"Alright, I'll go take a look."
Uchiha also wanted to go over and watch a good show. This time, no matter what, it would be detrimental to the team.
Tanzo had been targeting the Uchiha Clan for a long time. It was rare for him to be in trouble now. It should not be a problem for him to take a layer of skin off this time.
"Father."
After seeing her father leave, Jiu Xinna felt a little uneasy. The other clansmen also felt as if they had lost their backbone.
After experiencing this incident, these Whirlpool clansmen were very confused.
"Come with me first."
Flowing Maple said to the Whirlpool clansmen. Then, he held Koshina's hand and walked toward the Uchiha clan.
Jiu Xinna raised her head and glanced at Flowing Maple. She knew that Flowing Maple had saved them, and the other members of the Whirlpool Clan knew about it as well, so they were not against following Flowing Maple.
