When Shirataki passed through the physical defense line formed by the Kirigakure ninjas, knocking down and flying countless Kirigakure ninjas along the way like a typhoon, someone on the wall of Uzushio Village already noticed this sudden change.

Therefore, when Shirataki finally arrived at the city wall of Uzushio Village, although there were a circle of Uzumaki tribesmen with wary eyes around them, no brainless guy tried to yell at Shirataki to kill him.

But similarly, many Uzumaki clan members tacitly stopped in front of Shirataki, with no intention of letting him pass. It seemed that they were still very wary.

The two sides faced off for a while, and just when Shirataki felt a little impatient, a middle-aged man in his thirties who was leading the Uzumaki tribe on the opposite side suddenly took a step forward and stood in front of Shirataki.

"Your Excellency." The middle-aged man looked at Shirataki cautiously, put one hand on his chest, bowed slightly for a moment, then raised his head, and asked with very cautious words, "I wonder if you are Shirataki-sama?"

As if he had expected this question from the other party, Shirataki's shoulders shook slightly, and Uzumaki Ashina's ring immediately fell out of his sleeve, and he held it in his hand.

Then, Shirataki flicked his wrist, and the ring drew an arc in the air, and was taken directly by the middle-aged man in front of him.

"I am Uzumaki Shirataki, the son of Uzumaki Ashina! Who is your clan leader now? I want to see him!" In two sentences, Shirataki expressed his intention very clearly, and the content of his words was very simple.

Hearing Shirataki reveal his identity, many of the Uzumaki clan members on the opposite side couldn't help but make a slight commotion. However, as the middle-aged man in the lead turned his head slightly and signaled with his eyes for a moment, they all became quiet.

A few seconds passed, and when the ring in his hand was inspected, the middle-aged man handed it back to Shirataki and said seriously, "Master Shirataki, the current clan leader is on his way here quickly. Please stay here for a moment. If there is any offense, please forgive me." Please forgive me."

Although Shirataki showed great strength and hostile attitude towards Kirigakure during his sudden attack, and now he even took out a ring to prove his identity.

But the middle-aged man still didn't dare to let Shirataki enter the Uzumaki Village like this, because "keep this place and don't let even a fly in" was the order he received and the responsibility he should shoulder.

No matter what kind of emergency occurs, it will naturally be decided by the clan leader himself. He knows very well that he neither has the authority to make any decisions without authorization, nor the qualifications to take all risks for it.

Therefore, even if he offends the "former young master", the middle-aged man will stick to his beliefs and strictly implement every order he receives. Perhaps he was aware of the determination in the eyes of the middle-aged man in front of him, so Bai Taki did not continue to force anything, and simply sat down on the ground and rested for a while.

Glancing at the middle-aged man who was standing silently on the side, Bai Takixian looked bored and said, "What's your name? I don't think I've seen you before?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man's heart moved, and he immediately replied, "My name is Uzumaki Makoto. Thanks to the trust of the clan leader, I am currently living in the position of commander-in-chief of the West Wall garrison."

Uzumaki Makoto's expression was cautious, his attitude was respectful, and his tone and words were all very polite. Only his legs never moved back a bit, and his eyes were firmly locked on Shirataki.

The various profound meanings shown in this made Shirataki slightly interesting. For a moment, he felt that Uzumaki Makoto was a wonderful person. When he continued to ask, "I see that you are very vigilant. I have done this to this extent." I have come to prove myself, but you are still so defensive about me. Have you suffered similar losses before?"

Shirataki's tone was very casual, as if he was just chatting to kill time, but Uzumaki Makoto did not dare to be careless. Because of Shirataki's strength, he had just seen it with his own eyes on the top of the city.

Although he had already ruled out the possibility of Shirataki being Kirigakure's spy in his heart, Uzumaki Makoto knew that he could not do anything based on his own opinion, and everything had to be decided by the clan leader, which was a formal process.

However, despite this, if the strong support is dissatisfied due to this overly cautious attitude, although Uzumaki Makoto himself will not be harshly criticized by the clan leader, the Uzumaki clan as a whole will undoubtedly be looked down upon by the other party.

And this would undoubtedly do more harm than good to him. Therefore, facing Shirataki's question that seemed to be raised casually but was actually quite sharp, Uzumaki Makoto decided to speak the truth with reservations after a brief thought.

"Things like rings can be forged, and Kirigakure ninjas have also used the so-called bitter flesh trick in order to insert agents into our Uzumaki Village. These things are all lessons learned."

Sighing softly, a look of fear flashed across Uzumaki Makoto's eyes unconsciously, and then he said to Shirataki sincerely, "Master Shirataki, it's not that we can't trust you. In fact, we are a bit fooled by the endless methods of Kirigakure Village. I’m so scared that I’m so careful.”

"After all, today's Uzumaki Village and even the Uzumaki clan can no longer afford the slightest risk." After saying this, Uzumaki Cheng silently raised his head and his eyes slowly swept towards the direction of the city.

As far as the field of vision can be seen, countless waste stones, bricks and tiles, as well as ruins and broken walls filling every corner, immediately caught everyone's eyes.

Above the sky, the setting sun is like blood, and groups of crows fly around, landing in the ruins from time to time. Looking at the movements of their lowered heads and gnawing, you can imagine what these crows are eating.

Facts have proved that even if it is the same scene, the atmosphere felt is very different when viewed from a distance and viewed from close up. Shirataki understood this deeply at this time.

But he had seen similar scenes countless times, so he did not express any emotion, but calmly continued to ask, "How long has the war been going on?"

Uzumaki Makoto retracted his gaze from the distance and paused for a second or two on Shirataki's Furui Muha face, and then slowly replied, "It's been more than a month."

"One month?" Shirataki muttered in a low voice. Then he no longer dwelled on the topic, but stood up abruptly, straightened his expression, and looked behind Uzumaki Makoto.

There was a large group of chakra reactions rushing over there. The leader of them had chakra strength that almost reached the Kage level. He should be the current leader of the Uzumaki clan.

Uzumaki Makoto noticed Shirataki's movements and subconsciously turned his head to look back, only to see the head of his family climbing up the city, followed by a group of elders.

"Clan leader!" Including Uzumaki Makoto, many Uzumaki clan members surrounding Shirataki on the city quickly stepped aside and respectfully waited for their clan leader to arrive.

Shirataki raised his eyes and quickly took a look at the leader of the Uzumaki clan. He was an old man over fifty years old. His hair was different from the color of ordinary Uzumaki clan members. It was not red, but showed an old white color.

The old man's face was covered with mottled wrinkles, but his expression was quite calm and self-defeating. Wearing a red armor with a rather retro style, he strode towards Shirataki with a meteoric stride. His bloodshot eyes were wide open, as if he wanted to take a closer look at Shirataki.

Judging from the old man's subtle movements, Shirataki estimated that the Uzumaki clan leader had not had a good night's sleep in a long time. Although the other party's expression was trying his best to remain serious, the almost indelible fatigue still reflected the true condition of his body and spirit.

Stopping half a meter away from Shirataki, the Uzumaki clan leader took a deep breath, as if to relieve his tired spirit, and then asked directly to Shirataki, "Shirataki? Do you represent Konoha?"

Shirataki nodded and replied, "Exactly."

"only you?"

Bai Taki raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "That's right."

Hearing this, the Uzumaki clan leader raised his hand expressionlessly, rubbed his face fiercely, and then scratched the top of his head vigorously, causing a few strands of hair to fall off.

After completing these actions, he took a long breath and said in an extremely calm tone: "Uzumaki Shirataki of Konoha, I am very happy to see you coming to help."

"But." Pointing to the seemingly endless fog ninjas in the distance outside the city wall, the Uzumaki clan leader said calmly, "You have also seen the number of enemies. If there is only one person, unless you are Senju Hashirama alive, no matter what No matter how strong you are, it will not help the severe situation our clan is facing now."

As he spoke, the Uzumaki clan leader suddenly raised his head and cast his gaze to the sky. At this moment, a tailed beast jade passed over everyone's heads and flew straight to the central area of ​​the city. Soon, golden light appeared.

boom! The strong wind blew in the direction of everyone, making everyone present slightly unstable.

The Uzumaki clan leader raised his hand to protect his face, and glanced around the city unmoved. He paused for a while at another large crater that appeared, and then turned back and continued to Shirataki, "Look. Are you here? Kirigakure has gone crazy. In this situation, even if Konoha’s full support is not enough, you are alone?”

"Haha." The face of the Uzumaki clan leader was very dull, and even his laughter seemed feeble. Shirataki felt that the other party was not so much mocking him as he was rejecting a clan member who did not have the blood of the Uzumaki clan.

Faced with such a situation, Shirataki had no intention of talking nonsense. He looked up at the central area of ​​the city, pointed at the relatively well-preserved buildings, and said word by word, "Take me there, I can help." You solve the problem."

Seeing the Uzumaki clan leader narrowing his eyes and staring at him, with the scrutiny and vigilance in his eyes almost solidified, Shirataki turned back, looked at him without blinking, and added again, "I'm not like that." I’ve spent so much time talking nonsense to you, trust me, if you don’t want to die, just lead the way.”

The eyes of both parties briefly met at this moment, and under the influence of Qi, there seemed to be some invisible message being transmitted. Finally, after more than ten seconds, the Uzumaki clan leader took the initiative to look away. He seemed to be more awake, and the vigilant expression on his face seemed to have dissipated. He didn't know what he read in Shirataki's eyes.

"No matter what you plan to do." After pondering for a while, the Uzumaki clan leader slowly turned around, leaving a trace of his back to Shirataki, and continued without looking back, "If your actions destroy the operation of the Vajra Formation, then Whether it’s us, the Uzumaki clan, or yourself, everyone will surely die.”

"I hope you understand this."

After hearing this, Shirataki did not make any reply, but a sneer flashed across his face, as if he was unhappy with the Uzumaki clan leader's distrust of him.
