Konoha's Frozen Vortex

Chapter 5 The Future of the Uzumaki Clan
Uzumaki Ashina shook his head, as if a little regretful, and continued to talk about all aspects of Uzumaki Country.

"... Having said so much, I just want to tell you one thing. The country of the vortex has the name of the country, but it does not have the scale to match it. We are not completely safe in the middle of the country of fire and the country of water. , now with the help of Hashirama and Mito, the tribe has lived a stable life for a few years. Once Hashirama and Mito are gone, and even Togama is gone, when the Senju clan is no longer strong, Konoha may not We will always remain friendly, and no one knows what the future of Uzumaki will be."

Whirlpool Xuehui was a little shocked, he didn't expect that the old man who controlled the Whirlpool Kingdom could understand the future of Whirlpool Nation so clearly.

"Could it be that our Uzumaki clan will usher in annihilation in the future?" Uzumaki Xuehui tentatively asked.

"Huh? Didn't you never pay attention to these things? You can come to such a conclusion. Although it's a bit too much to say, I don't think it should be easy. It seems that you are not old, and you see it better than those gangs." The single-minded guy is much farther away. They always feel that with the relationship between Uzumaki and Senju, Konoha will not ignore anything. However, Konoha has never said that Hokage is the Hokage of the Senju clan. .”

Uzumaki Ashina was only surprised when he heard Xuehui, and more of a kind of appreciation, feeling that he had chosen the right heir.

"No, Grandpa, I think there is one thing you forgot to consider."

For the first time in history, Uzumaki Yuki refuted Uzumaki Ashina's words in a conversation.

"Oh? What is it?"

"Tailed beast!"

This is the first time that Uzumaki Xuehui, who is considered gentle by nature, has shown such a serious expression in front of others except for cultivation. Although such an expression is a bit weird for a child who has just been eight years old, it is surprisingly, Uzumaki Ashina didn't find it ridiculous.

"Tailed beast?"

"That's right, during the process of practicing these advanced sealing techniques, I discovered that these sealing techniques have the ability to control and seal tailed beasts."

"You're right. Although the tailed beast is scary, it's not a scary thing for the Uzumaki family." Uzumaki Ashina said proudly.

"We are not afraid, which does not mean that other people are not afraid. Besides, who knows that tailed beasts will not be able to be controlled and used in the future. Once there is a precedent, our family with the method of sealing tailed beasts will be the target of various countries. "

It was rare for Xuehui to say so much.

"Haha, you really brought me a lot of surprises today. I didn't expect you to have already been thinking about what I wanted to make you realize through this conversation. I haven't been this happy for a long time, old man."

Uzumaki Ashina suddenly laughed a few times, and did not answer the question directly, but said with a smile on his face.

"Xuehui, I'm already old. Although our family can live for a long time, our strength can't last as long as our lifespan. My current strength has declined a lot, let alone in the future."

"The tailed beast problem you mentioned is indeed something we have been ignoring all the time, but now that Hashirama is here, these problems will not surface, so we don't know what will really happen then."

"So our family needs a young man to solve these problems. Originally, Mito was the most suitable candidate, but now it seems that she has no time to take care of her family, and my son Uoina manages daily affairs, don't worry about it." Except for the fighting power that he barely reached as a Jonin, I can't count on him for anything else."

Uzumaki Ashina raised his hand and pointed at Xuehui in front of him.

"So I decided that you will be the one who will solve our family's problems in the future. Xuehui, your potential, wisdom, and character are far superior to those of your age. What you said just now and your previous studies have proved this. What you lack All you need is time and experience, so I originally wanted to wait until you grow up to tell you the whole thing. But what I said today made me feel that it doesn’t matter if I let you know now.”

"Me?" Whirlpool Xuehui asked in surprise, pointing at himself.

"That's right! Boy, you are the only one in the Uzumaki Clan who can have this potential right now."

"Wait a minute, grandpa, my mother seems to be from the Minazuki clan, right?"

Xue Hui made a 'wait' gesture and said.

Uzumaki Ashina waved his hand indifferently.

"Hmph! Do you think the Uzumaki clan is a narrow-minded guy like Hyuga Uchiha? This kind of thing has never been a problem. Since your surname is Uzumaki, then you are a member of the Uzumaki clan. The clan has criticized you because of your bloodline. You? I think you know this best, they are such people!"

"That's the way it is..." Whirlpool Xuehui scratched his head, remembering every detail of his life in the village. This was not because of the kindness that a relative of the patriarch could explain.

"Let's wait until then to talk about the future. No matter what, I will not abandon the identity of the Uzumaki clan, will I? Don't worry, no matter whether I become the patriarch or not in the future, I will let the Uzumaki Kingdom stand here. of."

Whirlpool Xuehui promised.

"You kid, it doesn't matter, let's do this first." Uzumaki Ashina didn't want to press too hard, and the meal still had to be eaten in bites.

"By the way, speaking of Aunt Mito, I would like to go to Konoha when I have time." Seeing that this topic was temporarily over, Xuehui turned to another proposal.

"Xuehui, you are really different from the clansmen. Are these strange thoughts one after another, the influence of Minazuki's blood? Why do you want to go to Konoha again, isn't it good in the village?"

"That's not it..." Xue Hui scratched his hair, thinking: "I can't say that I want to hug my thigh while the first and second generations are still there. I am coveted for those powerful techniques. After all, the sealing technique Its usefulness for frontal combat is still limited."

"I just want to meet the world. I'm a little curious about legendary figures like Senshou Brothers and Uchiha Madara. By the way, I will visit Aunt Mito, whom I have never met before."

"I think it's fake for you to visit Mito. Curious about Mito's yin seal is your purpose! I knew you boy wouldn't be satisfied with that,"

Uzumaki Ashina said with a half-smile that I had seen through a long time ago.

"Well, I do have a little thought about this, just a little bit." Xue Hui said with a smile after comparing his right thumb and index finger.

"There's no harm in going out to see the world, and it's still peaceful now. However, with your current strength, let's forget it. Let's talk about when you have mastered what you just learned. It should be the same for you." It won't take much time."

Uzumaki Ashina said the conditions.

"That's natural!" Whirlpool Xuehui understood.

"Mito, I haven't seen her since Konoha was established, and I can only communicate with letters. I don't know how she and Hashirama get along. Their children should be adults now."

Ashina muttered.
