Konoha's Frozen Vortex

One day, on the coastline of the country of Uzumaki, the Uzumaki Squad was conducting daily patrols.

With the energy of the enchantment completely exhausted, Xue Hui did not intend to inject new energy into it.

Instead, there are more frequent patrols and several newly established strongholds.

The country of Uzumaki still maintains a policy of restricting entry and exit. Although personnel from other countries know that the barrier has disappeared, due to the strength of the country of Uzumaki and its prestige in the ninja world, they all wisely choose not to provoke the country of Uzumaki. .

However, compared to the previous situation where only one port was open, Whirlpool Port, now the Wave Port on the opposite side of the strait is also open to the outside world.

There are two main reasons for this decision.

One is that the number and strength of Uzumaki ninjas have increased significantly, which is enough to ensure the safety and order of the two ports.

The second is the bridge connecting the two places. The bridge named Naruto Bridge has been built, and the connection between the two places has become very frequent, which has greatly promoted the national strength of the country of vortex.

In order to prevent the sneaking in of Mist Ninja, there is no doubt that the alertness of the coastline is stronger than that of the border of the Kingdom of Fire.

"Captain! Someone appeared on the beach in the distance!"

Otsutsuki's Uzumaki reported to the team's Jonin captain.

"What?! Tell me in detail!"

While speeding up and approaching, the Uzumaki clan's jounin also activated his perception ninjutsu. This team relied on the rotation of the two to scout their own area.

"There is only one enemy, and there is a Chakra reaction, but it seems to have fallen into a coma?"

After watching with blank eyes for a while, the ninja of Otsutsuki reported.

At this time, Jonin also used his perception ninjutsu to discover the unexpected guest.

After sending out a signal to the nearest stronghold, he led his team carefully towards the beach where the incident happened.

The tall weeds were pushed aside silently, and there was indeed a young woman lying on the beach quietly with her head down, her lower body still being washed by the waves from time to time.

Jonin saw the opponent's Mistnin's forehead with sharp eyes, and his pupils shrank sharply.

"Stop! Let's just keep a distance and monitor here!"

This middle-aged Jōnin has undoubtedly experienced the battle of the Kiriginin's sneak attack. He subconsciously became [-] points vigilant against the Kiriginin.

"Reinforcements will come soon. Before that, don't relax your vigilance, keep monitoring the surrounding movements, and don't let go of any possible traces!"

"Yes! Captain!"

The expressions of the three team members also became serious. This was the first time they saw their team leader look like an enemy.

The tense atmosphere lasted for a quarter of an hour, and Qianju Qianshu rushed here with two teams.

At this time, Senju Chiki had become the head of Uzumaki's defense department, and it was a coincidence that he happened to be inspecting this stronghold. As soon as he received the signal, he rushed over without stopping.

Seeing that it was Senju Chiju, Jonin was slightly relieved. At least three squad leaders plus Senju Chiki, the combat effectiveness was absolutely guaranteed.

"That person has been lying there motionless since you found it?"

As soon as Qianshou Qianshu arrived, he asked in a low voice.

"Yes, but I can't confirm whether it is really passed out or a trap."

Jonin answered cautiously.

"Um……"

Qian Shu thought for a while, then called a young boy behind him.

"Go and try it, is it okay?"

"Yes! Master Qianshu!"

Uzumaki, who seemed to be just a ninja, didn't refuse, and then pulled a scroll.

With a bang, a puppet appeared in front of everyone.

Under the operation of the puppeteer, the puppet approached the Mist Ninja, and then turned him over, revealing his face.

"Kirakure's female ninja?"

Thousand Hands Thousand Trees muttered.

"It is true that he has passed out, and there are still several wounds on his body, and there are no signs of traps around."

Feedback from the ninja collector puppet, reported.

"Very well, you are doing a good job in the event of an emergency."

Chiki encouraged him, and then separated a shadow clone, walked to the unconscious Mist ninja, sealed its chakra, and then let the puppet carry it on its back, and brought it all the way back to Uzumaki outside the village.

Xuehui and Jing have stayed in Uzumaki Country since they came back last time. After receiving the notice sent by Qianshou Qianshu, Xuehui came outside the village.

"This is the Kirin who you found lying on the beach?"

Seeing the ninja being carried on the puppet, Xue Hui asked.

"Yes, because I'm afraid that some dangerous operation has been placed on her body, so before sending her to the hospital, I ask you to check her."

Under Qianshu's signal, the ninja was placed on the ground.

"Terumi Mei?"

Xuehui looked at this familiar Mist ninja quite unexpectedly.

With that long brown hair, good looks and plump figure, Xue Hui thought that there should be no other person among the fog ninja.

"There is nothing wrong with her. Send her to the hospital and let Tsunade or Nonoyu treat her personally."

Xuehui immediately ordered that his ability for this kind of spiritual treatment is still not as good as orthodox medical ninjas.

"She notified me as soon as she woke up. I guess something happened to Mist Ninja."

Xuehui added.

That night, under the joint treatment of Tsunade and Nonou, Terumi Mei woke up relying on her strong body.

"Terumi Mei, isn't it?"

As soon as she opened her eyes, Terumi Mei heard a strange voice calling to herself.

She suddenly found that her chakra had been sealed, and she was lying in a ward, surrounded by many people, all focused on herself.

"I see, this is the country of the vortex, right?"

After thinking for a while, Terumi Mei understood the ins and outs.

"If you're here for help, you'd better answer my questions first."

Xue Hui emphasized.

"Yes, I am Terumi Mei, Uzumaki-sama."

Terumi Mei closed her eyes and answered in a low voice while recovering.

Xue Hui didn't care about the other party's behavior, and then asked:

"Tell us what happened."

"Qing told me one day that Mizukage was manipulated by someone using illusion. After we confirmed it, we secretly summoned a group of companions to overthrow the control of the mastermind behind the scenes and save Mizukage."

"Failed?"

Xue Hui raised his eyebrows unexpectedly.

"……Yes."

Terumi said dejectedly.

"Not only that, our plan was already fully known by the opponent before we investigated who was controlling the water shadow."

"Moreover, those damned ninja swordsmen actually took refuge in the man behind the scenes, united with a group of rebel ninjas from various countries who did not know when they entered the fog ninja, and launched a surprise attack on us first."

"They were too strong, and they were making another surprise attack. In the end, in order to buy me time to escape, Qing chose to stay and lead his companions to hold them back."

Terumi sighed dejectedly.
