Chapter 110 How did he die?
Upon hearing this, an elder with a full white beard stepped forward and did not deny what Uchiha Gen had said. "Then let me ask you, what else can we do? Go and negotiate?"
They feared and dreaded the power of the Uzumaki clan and their sealing techniques. All the major ninja villages, and even the smaller ones in the surrounding areas, were hostile towards us. We couldn't fight them all, and the situation in Konoha was unclear…”
"Hmm, so what?" Uchiha Gen asked back as if he didn't understand.
So what? Are we just going to leave the Land of Whirlpools like stray dogs?
"..."
The elders fell silent.
"Uzumaki Reikawa, you are a genius in every way, and we were able to discover this ahead of time because of the suspicious points you pointed out."
But rationally speaking, staying here, no matter how much damage they could inflict on the enemy, meant the Uzumaki clan was gone forever. The annihilation of a clan is ultimately just a written record in history.
The elder with a few strands of white hair sighed almost imperceptibly as he spoke, as if he had thought of something. They were old and had lost the vigor of their youth. It wasn't that they were afraid of death, but that they dared not risk the survival of their entire clan. If the Whirlpool Clan were wiped out because of this, they would be sinners for all eternity.
Gen Uchiha pondered for a moment and then asked, "...Although this question is a bit strange, please answer me seriously: what is my current strength? Since you say I am currently the strongest in the Uzumaki clan, how strong is 'strongest'?"
"???" The white-haired elder looked puzzled upon hearing this, glancing at the other elders before hesitatingly saying, "Actually... we didn't determine the exact level of your strength. The reason we came to this conclusion is that you were caught by this bearded man next to me on your way to steal the mask from the Namen Hall..."
The elder with a full beard coughed a few times, looking somewhat embarrassed, and quickly gestured for him to stop talking! In terms of direct combat, apart from Mito and the deceased clan chief, he could be considered the strongest among these people, yet he had failed to defeat this kid before and had been completely outmaneuvered.
It was on that occasion that Reikawa Uzumaki first entered the elders' view in a "positive" light. After passing the basic assessment, he was publicly declared to be a Jonin, but only Reikawa himself knew the true extent of his strength.
Seeing their performance, although he didn't say it explicitly, Uchiha Gen roughly guessed what the situation was, and showed a knowing expression. "In that case, give me the specific information you have gathered these past few days."
"???"
"What do you want to do?"
"Kill them all!" Uchiha Gen stated as if stating a fact, his eyes smiling but revealing no trace of murderous intent. He already had a rough idea of the situation; now only one question remained: how exactly did 'he' die?
The specific reasons for the annihilation of the Uzumaki clan were probably also due to Black Zetsu's interference. This was because of the death of the First Hokage and the outbreak of the Second World War, while the Uzumaki clan's Adamantine Sealing Technique had a great restraining effect on the Tailed Beasts.
For other ninja villages, selecting Jinchuriki is a delicate matter. However, the Uzumaki clan, with their powerful chakra and vitality, can train even a child with decent aptitude to become a Jinchuriki. This is something that other ninja villages covet.
The Sharingan has already cast a shadow over various countries. Furthermore, Konoha, possessing the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques, is absolutely capable of suppressing tailed beasts. This is not what other ninja villages or Black Zetsu want to see.
