Konoha's Frozen Vortex

"Xuehui!"

"Fortunately, Xuehui, you're back!"

Walking to the door, the two elders of Whirlpool, who had already been notified to wait here, saw Xue Hui, their eyes filled with joy.

"Well, the two elders have worked hard, how is the grandfather?"

Xue Hui politely returned the salute.

"Ugh--"

Uzumaki Cangming sighed.

"Your great grandfather is very old after all. After the news of you and Feijian's disappearance came, there was no follow-up news for several days. The patriarch always looked sad every day, and fell ill after a long time. .”

"It's my fault." Xue Hui blamed himself.

"You should go in quickly, the patriarch should be much better when he sees you."

"Ok!"

Xue Hui quickly agreed, opened the door and walked in.

Uzumaki Ashina on the bed was much older than before Xuehui left, his whole body was lying on the bed, a lot thinner.

"Xuehui, it's good that you come back."

A weak but happy voice came from Uzumaki Ashina's mouth.

"Grandpa, Xue Hui is back, and it makes you worry."

Xue Hui quickly came to Ashing's bedside, and said softly.

"It's okay, it's okay, anyway, the old man has lived long enough, but Xuehui, don't be so reckless in doing things in the future. It seems that Feijian is no longer there, right?"

Ashina Uzumaki sighed.

"Hashirama and Feijian, I didn't expect these two brothers, who are a generation younger than me, to leave earlier than me. What bad luck!"

"Cang Ming, Wei Ming, you guys come in too!"

Uzumaki Ashina greeted the two Uzumaki elders to enter.

"Now you have seen my situation, Xue Hui, it's time to hand over the entire family and the entire country of Vortex to you!"

Xue Hui had anticipated this situation from the very beginning, wisely he didn't make a sound, and silently listened to Ashina's instructions.

"But the situation is a little different now, Xuehui, thanks to your efforts alone, the Thousand Hands can be merged into the country of the vortex. This is something we can't even imagine, but you actually did it. This is an amazing feat!"

"However, because of the joining of the Thousand Hands Clan, it is no longer appropriate to govern the Uzumaki Village as the patriarch of the Uzumaki Clan, so we decided to abandon the existing system of one clan, one village, and follow the Ninja Village model of other countries. Re-establish the name Uzumaki to separate the village from the affairs of the clan."

"Now, we officially confer on you the titles of Daimyo of Uzumaki Country, Uzumaki Village of Uzumaki, and the patriarch of Uzumaki Clan. You must shoulder this responsibility and make Uzumaki Country even stronger!"

"Yes! Patriarch! I have already prepared!"

Xue Hui also changed his title at this time.

"We naturally believe in you. After all, you have brought many changes to the country of Vortex, including the vassalization of the country of Vortex, the development of the country of Vortex, the establishment of the port of Vortex, maritime trade, and now even the joining of the Thousand Hands Clan! "

Uzumaki Cangming on the side sighed, unknowingly, so many changes had taken place in the country of Uzumaki under Yukiteru's suggestion.

"That's right. We originally set up a village and a country to find a place where our people could live in peace. As for making the country of the vortex stronger, we really didn't think too much about it. After going through the troubled times We feel that we are satisfied with a peaceful place to live. Now it seems that we are already behind the times!"

Uzumaki Ashina was also sighing.

"You guys are overrated, this is just what I should do."

Xue Hui said modestly.

"Then this matter is settled like this. The succession ceremony will be held in a few days. I don't think Qianshou and the others will have any objections to Xuehui. It is just a matter of using the celebration to show them the welcoming attitude of our Uzumaki clan! "

Uzumaki Ashina arranged.

"Yes!"

……

In the current Uzumaki Village, there is a large unplanned area in the center, and only one building symbolizing Uzumaki has been constructed, which has also replaced the office of the Uzumaki patriarch and has become the daily office of the entire village.

Two days later, the Uzushio Village was decorated with lights and festoons, and almost all the ninjas returned to the village. Xuehui stood on the balcony of the Uzumaki Building and announced to the excited crowd below:

"From today, I will be the shadow of Uzushio Village! Its name is Uzumaki!"

Xue Hui clenched his fist with his right hand and swung it forcefully toward the sky.

"Oh oh oh!"

"Master Xuehui!"

"Uzumaki! Uzumaki! Uzumaki!"

The crowd below completely boiled with Xue Hui's words.

Xue Hui looked at the Thousand Hands Clan who were celebrating together below, seeing that they had integrated into the village well, he smiled with satisfaction.

"Well, this is Xuehui's real side, how do you feel?"

Senshou Momoka brought Kaguya Chizuru below, and Senshou Momohua looked at Xuehui on the stage with a smile, and said to Qianzuru who was beside him thoughtfully.

"Has he... always been this popular?"

Kaguya Chizuru asked hesitantly.

"No, I heard that it was his unceasing efforts from the beginning to get everyone's approval. He also said that his family, friends, and village are the motivation for him to work hard to become stronger. He wants to repay He has been kind to his people since he was a baby."

Momoka Senshou explained.

"This village, as he said, is really different."

Kaguya Chizuru looked thoughtfully at Xuehui's spirited way of accepting the cheers.

"Indeed, this village is indeed different, and I feel the same way."

"This place is more peaceful than Konoha, which may be the reason why the composition of the village is not complicated!"

Senju Momoka also felt the same way, but with her vision, she could still see something deeper.

"Xuehui, I'm looking forward to seeing how far you can go. Will this village, as Mito said, grow under your hands!"

Qianshou Taohua looked at Xuehui expectantly.

Next, Uzumaki Village, after the succession ceremony, held a rare celebration ceremony, which not only celebrated Xue Hui's appointment, but also welcomed the joining of the Thousand Hands Clan.

Xue Hui was on the Kuoying Building, silently watching all this.

"With the friendship between Qianshou and Whirlpool, the integration of the Qianshou clan is indeed very smooth. It seems that I don't need to worry about the relationship between the two clans in the future."

Xuehui then turned his gaze to the distance, that direction, the direction where Konoha was.

"But for another family, if they want to integrate them into the village, it should take a lot of effort. Whether it is the character of that family or the old grievances with the whirlpool of thousands of hands, it needs to be carefully resolved."

"However, even if it is difficult, I will not give up the opportunity to get you!"

Xuehui's eyes narrowed.

"Although that's what I said, it's still unclear whether I can successfully get you to join! It depends on what kind of results my next trip can bring! Hirizhan, and Danzo, I want to Here to help you stabilize the situation!"
