Konoha's Frozen Vortex

With a burst of dizziness, Xuehui felt the existence of a little space.Xuehui, who felt that he was back, took off his mask and opened his eyes again. The familiar Whirlpool Temple was indeed in his sight.

"Finally back, I don't know how long it has been."

Xue Hui, who returned to Uzumaki Village, stretched his body that had been bound by iron chains for a long time, and felt that his body was much lighter. After thinking about it, he decided to put the mask in his hand back to its original place.

"Huh? Didn't they put it here? Or did Grandpa and the others put a new mask here?" Xue Hui looked at a mask that was similar to his hand in the place that should have been vacant. Dazed.

Putting back the mask in his hand, Xue Hui decided that it would be better to find out about the situation with his patriarch grandpa, so he walked out of the ancestral hall.

As soon as the door was pushed open, the "squeaking" sound from the door immediately attracted the attention of the guards who had stepped up their security in recent days. Before Yukiteru even stepped out of the ancestral hall, the two guards of the Uzumaki clan were beaming with joy. appeared in front of Xuehui.

"Master Yukiteru! You finally showed up. That's great. I'm going to inform the clan leader!" One of the guards disappeared from Yukiteru's eyes again before he could respond, apparently to inform Uzumaki Ashina.

Seeing this speed, Xue Hui was dumbfounded.

But the other one was much more stable, he looked at Xue Hui up and down and asked with a smile: "Don't worry about that guy, are you injured?"

Xue Hui regained consciousness, shook his head, and asked back: "I'm fine, don't worry, by the way, how long has it been since I disappeared?"

"It's been two days, Master Xuehui."

"How did it take so long?" Xue Hui was very surprised, he didn't expect that this unexpected trip took more time than expected.

"No major incident happened in the village, right?" Xue Hui calmed down and asked.

"As far as I know, not." The guard replied truthfully, then locked the door of the ancestral hall together with Xue Hui, and rushed towards the patriarch's place.

But before they had gone far, the impetuous guard returned again, and said directly as soon as they met: "Master Xuehui, the patriarch, please go over quickly."

"Huh?" Xue Hui was surprised, thinking: "Grandpa, what does this mean? He neither asked me about my situation nor what happened. Why do I feel that it wasn't because of my business that he asked me to go there?"

Xue Hui didn't have any clue, it's better to ask the guard first: "Did something happen?"

"It seems that something happened. The patriarch looked like he was frowning and thinking. He was only a little happy when he heard that the young master came back, and then he asked me to tell you to go see him quickly." The impatient guard quickly moved What I have seen and heard shows that character has become an advantage at this time.

"I understand, I'll go right away, thank you both for your hard work!" Xue Hui thanked the two guards with courtesy, and hurried towards the patriarch's house amidst the wavering of their hands.

"Why do you feel that the young master's physical fitness has become stronger?" Looking at Xue Hui's leaving figure, the guard who had been with him just now said doubtfully.

"I think so too." The quick-tempered guard echoed, turned around and prepared to go back to his post, "Let's go, let's go back, there won't be any danger in the village anyway, besides, the young master's strength is not weak."

On one side, the two guards completed their mission and returned to their duties, while on the other side, Yukiteru quickly felt the clan leader and once again saw Uzumaki Ashina and the two elders.

"Grandpa, I'm back." Xue Hui greeted respectfully, while not forgetting the two elders.

"Ah, it's Yukiteru." Uzumaki Ashina heard Yukiteru's voice, and his consciousness was pulled away from his thoughts. He looked at Yukiteru, nodded and said, "It seems you are fine, that's fine."

Xue Hui looked at the other party's appearance, and couldn't help saying: "Grandpa, what happened?"

"Yukiki," at this time, the great elder Uzumaki Ashina came up and handed him a document marked with the Konoha logo, "Look at this, it was sent not long ago."

As a result of Xue Hui's subconscious, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind. At this point in time, the big event of Konoha, it can't be...

Xue Hui didn't say any more, just opened it and looked at it, his pupils trembled, as expected, the content on it was extremely simple, so simple that Xue Hui didn't need to confirm again——

"Uchiha Madara fought fiercely with the first generation, Madara died in the battle, and Hashirama was seriously injured and returned to the village."

"This..." Rao was already prepared, but when it really happened, he still felt very shocked, raised his head and asked:

"This was sent by Konoha on its own initiative? What do they mean by sending it? It shouldn't be just a notification, right?"

"Yes, Yukiteru, you asked a good question. He is indeed the boy we like." Uzumaki Sona took over the words from the side and answered calmly with a smile.

"It's true that Konoha didn't take the initiative to send it over. Mito asked them to send it over. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been sent to us so soon."

"Aunt Mito?" Xue Hui was a little surprised, this time he couldn't figure out the meaning behind it.

"It seems that even if I know the direction of the plot, I will still have a lot of confusion when I am in it. Is this a fan of the authorities?" Xue Hui thought to himself.

"As for what Mito wants to express..." Uzumaki Sona continued.

"We want us to send someone to Konoha. Mito needs help." At this time, Uzumaki Ashina, who had been silent and silent, raised his head and spoke.

"Help?" Xue Hui was curious.

"Yes." Uzumaki Ashina nodded in affirmation, then suddenly changed the topic and asked:

"Xuehui, tell me what happened to you during the two days you were missing."

Seeing that Ashina Uzumaki seemed to have made her own decision on this matter, Yukiteru was not prepared to ask any more questions now. He followed the topic and told everything about his experiences in the past two days, while also taking out the strange mask.

"This mask?" The three old men looked at the mask Xue Hui took out, showing strange expressions.

"What's wrong?" Xue Hui was puzzled.

"After you disappeared, we checked the masks in the ancestral hall, and there was no missing mask." Uzumaki Ashina looked strange.

"What?" Hearing this sentence, Xue Hui couldn't believe it.

"Then where did the mask in my hand come from? I clearly remember that it was taken off the wall."

"Sana has confirmed it several times, and there will definitely be no less. So Yukiteru, you can go to the ancestral hall later to see it. Anyway, you can come back on your own." Uzumaki Ashina made a decision.

Xue Hui nodded, now the reason is not very important.

"By the way," just when Yukiteru was about to say goodbye and go back to rest, Ashina Uzumaki suddenly called out to Yukiteru: "Yukiki, what do you think about letting you go to Konoha to help Mito?"

"Me?!" Although he had always planned to go to Konoha, Xuehui was a little caught off guard by this sudden proposal, and pointed at himself.
