"Elder Guanghai, the top priority now is to ensure the safety of Princess Mito."
Senju Kawaragi came up and interrupted.
Seeing this, Uzumaki Guanghai reluctantly suppressed his anger and asked in a deep voice, "What is the opinion of Clan Leader Kawaragi?"
"Uchiha Izuna, as the deputy chief of the Uchiha clan, crossed the border into the Land of Whirlpools without authorization and killed two of our clan's ninjas. This has already broken the truce."
Senju Kawaragi showed a sinister sneer. "Now is the best time to counterattack. Hashirama has already joined forces with Tobirama to go to the Sarutobi and Shimura clans. If the Uzumaki clan joins us, then..."
Uzumaki Guanghai silently contemplated Kawaragi's words.
He understood perfectly what Kawaragi was implying—joining forces with the Senju to formally declare war on the Uchiha, forcing them to hand over his granddaughter. Initially, Guanghai was in favor of forming an alliance with the Senju and getting involved in the war, so Kawaragi's suggestion wasn't far-fetched. It would allow them to strike while the iron was hot.
The only thing holding him back was his concern for Princess Mito—his beloved granddaughter—and the fear that Uchiha Izuna might harm her.
Noticing Uzumaki Guanghai's hesitation, Senju Kawaragi quickly added, "Of course, during the war, the safety of Princess Mito will be our top priority. Please rest assured, Great Elder."
Uzumaki Guanghai pondered for a while longer before finally extending his hand to shake Kawaragi's, signaling his agreement. "Very well. Today, the Uzumaki clan will officially enter the war and assist the Senju in eradicating the Uchiha!"
On a small boat heading from the Land of Whirlpools back to the Land of Fire, Izuna removed his coat, laid it out on the edge of the boat to dry, and sat down. His clothes were completely soaked during his battle with the Three-Tails, and it was uncomfortable to wear them.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the boat, a red-haired girl dressed in plain white gauze stirred, frowning slightly as she woke up. It was Uzumaki Mito.
As she opened her eyes, she was startled to see Izuna sitting across from her, his upper body bare.
"Ah!"
Uzumaki Mito instinctively yelped and stumbled backward, nearly falling overboard.
Izuna reacted quickly, stepping forward to catch her by the hand and pulling her back.
Uzumaki Mito, caught by surprise, ended up pressing her face against Izuna's chest. The masculine scent of him made her cheeks flush. She quickly recoiled, punching Izuna in embarrassment, but in her haste, she struck her heel against the edge of the boat, causing her to fall awkwardly. Her neatly tied red hair came loose, cascading around her.
Izuna couldn't help but laugh.
"Haha~~"
Still flustered, Uzumaki Mito stood up, adjusted her messy hair, and sat down opposite him, quietly casting wary glances at him every now and then.
"Don't be so tense," Izuna said nonchalantly, resting his chin on one hand. "I'm not going to eat you. Since we've got time to kill, how about we have a little chat?"
Izuna was curious about the woman whose life had such legendary significance. Judging from her appearance, Mito couldn't be older than seventeen or eighteen.
Uzumaki Mito studied him in silence for a long moment before her lips curled into a slight smirk. "It's said that Uchiha Izuna, the deputy chief of the Uchiha clan, is very knowledgeable and serves as the think tank of the clan. I never expected you to make such a rookie mistake."
"Oh?" Izuna's eyes narrowed with amusement. "What mistake did I make?"
Mito's expression turned confident. "Senju Kawaragi approached my grandfather to discuss an alliance between our clans to join the war. Originally, my grandfather and the Uzumaki clan were hesitant about getting involved. But your decision to kidnap me has angered my grandfather and the entire Uzumaki clan. Under such provocation, they will inevitably form an alliance with the Senju, join the war, and turn against you Uchiha. The rift between your clan and the Senju will only widen."
Mito intentionally lied about her grandfather's hesitation, hoping to provoke some doubt in Izuna. While she knew it was unlikely that he would release her, it might at least throw him off balance and give her a chance to escape.
Izuna, however, first chuckled, then broke into a full-blown laugh.
"Hahaha... AHAHAHAHA!!!"
His laughter echoed across the small boat, causing Mito to feel an icy chill run down her spine. She couldn't help but ask, "W-what are you laughing at?"
Izuna's laughter slowly died down as he took a step toward her. Seeing him approach, his bare chest gleaming in the sunlight, Mito instinctively crossed her arms over her chest in panic. "What are you doing?"
"Princess Mito, have you forgotten the power of the Uchiha's Sharingan?"
In an instant, Izuna's eyes shifted into the form of the three-tomoe Sharingan. Uzumaki Mito's eyes glazed over, her body freezing in place.
"Now, tell me," Izuna's voice was calm yet commanding, "what exactly did Senju Kawaragi discuss when he visited Uzushio Village?"
Under the control of the Sharingan, Mito stood still for a moment, before she slowly began to speak, detailing everything about the discussion.
