"Oh? Is that so?" Shin'yu asked, feigning surprise.
The man nodded earnestly and sighed deeply, "Yes, brother, you don't know, some time ago..."
As they walked and talked, Shin'yu learned the gist of it by the time they arrived at the Uzumaki Clan's warehouse.
It turned out that two months ago, some uninvited guests suddenly appeared in the Land of Whirlpools.
At first, these people were just lurking on the shore, and seeing that the Uzumaki Clan didn't react, they gradually moved forward, eventually hiding outside the Hidden Whirlpool Village, acting somewhat suspiciously.
Of course, all of this couldn't escape the Uzumaki Clan's notice. After all, in addition to their renowned Sealing Techniques, they also possessed a super-large-range detection technique—the Kagura Mind's Eye.
Although this technique is an exclusive sensory Ninjutsu of the Uzumaki Clan, not everyone in the clan can learn it. Only those with exceptional talent have the possibility of successfully mastering it.
The user only needs to close their eyes, open the "Mind's Eye," and everything within a radius of dozens of kilometers can be sensed with Chakra. Any abnormal behavior cannot escape the user's perception.
If there is known specific Chakra, it can also be used for tracking. As long as it is within the range of perception, the detailed location and movements of the target can be detected, including the number of people around the target, the characteristics of the Chakra, and even information such as movement speed. It is one of the strongest detection Ninjutsu.
This technique can both see far and see through the opponent's Chakra, completely comparable to the Hyuga Clan's Byakugan. Only a monster like Shin'yu, whose Chakra reserves and Chakra control level far exceed those of humans, would not be seen through by the Kagura Mind's Eye.
Of course, this does not mean that the Kagura Mind's Eye is weak; after all, Shin'yu... is just an exception.
Not to mention that his level of Chakra control is already meticulous, with the blessing of "Mahoraga," after successively adapting to Tobirama's Water Release and Hashirama's Wooden Style, he has reached a perverted level in terms of Chakra form transformation.
The "Autumn Dew on Leaves" that made Otsutsuki Urashiki lose his composure is just the tip of the iceberg. Even the "Susanoo," a high-density, high-output Chakra body, can be further compressed by Shin'yu into a life-sized martial god. Even Uchiha Madara cannot do this.
Therefore, hiding Chakra and concealing his aura is not difficult for him.
But others are different. In fact, from the moment these sneaky guys landed on the island, they completely fell under the surveillance of Whirlpool Tide Village.
At first, the Uzumaki Clan remained calm and did not act rashly, because they found that these people were just lurking outside the village, silently observing the Uzumaki Clan, but did not take any action.
As they advanced step by step, the Uzumaki Clan couldn't figure out what they were going to do. Finally, under the order of the current Clan Head Uzumaki Changming, the village's experts were dispatched to arrest all these uninvited guests and bring them back to the village.
What they didn't expect was that these guys were very tight-lipped. No matter how the Uzumaki Clan interrogated, threatened, enticed, or even used torture, they didn't say a word about their lurking, and the Chakra attributes of these people were very uniform, making it impossible to judge their origins through Chakra attribute specialties.
Interrogation, information gathering, and soul exploration are not what the Uzumaki Clan excels at. Their methods are only effective against large targets. A skilled cook cannot make a meal without rice. Even with strong skills, they could not pry open these people's mouths.
Moreover, this clan is naturally kind, and most of the clan members are gentle in nature. In addition, they are used to being free and undisciplined, and they did not have the heart to kill all these people. Letting them go was not an option, and killing them was not either, which led to the current awkward situation.
Although they didn't extract any useful information, Clan Head Uzumaki Changming still felt that the Undertow was surging and a storm was coming. He immediately ordered a large batch of weapons from the Forging Blades Workshop Merchant Guild to prepare for a rainy day.
This gave Shin'yu a relatively gentle opportunity to approach the Uzumaki Clan.
Originally, he was still struggling with how to get the Uzumaki's Sealing Technique. Either directly break in and force the Uzumaki Clan to submit with his fists. Anyway, with his current strength, there would be no problem in sweeping through any Shinobi Village.
But this approach has three hidden dangers.
First of all, although Shin'yu is very confident in his current strength, he can't guarantee that the Uzumaki Clan will have some kind of evil Sealing Technique, similar to the "Dead Demon Consuming Seal," which sacrifices life as the price to unleash terrifying sealing power. After all, this is a clan that can communicate with the Grim Reaper.
Everything must be considered carefully. He was almost killed when Tobirama, the old thief, transferred him to the deep sea. The lesson he learned from that experience was: never underestimate any opponent.
Secondly, the Uzumaki Clan should not be so easily subdued by force. As a famous Shinobi World clan with a thousand years of heritage, they must have their own dignity. If there were a few spineless people, they would not have ended up with the fate of the entire clan being wiped out in the original timeline.
If everyone is that kind of violent temperament, sacrificing themselves for righteousness, even if Shin'yu sinks the entire Land of Whirlpools into the sea, he probably won't be able to get their Sealing Technique.
Moreover, he is not the kind of ruthless person who destroys entire clans at every turn. The most fundamental purpose is nothing more than to suppress the "Karma" mark on his palm, which can be completely resolved through peaceful means.
Finally, the Uzumaki Clan has always been mysterious. No one knows whether their sealing techniques, passed down for thousands of years, are locked away in secret chambers or passed down orally. In case there isn't a physical copy, it would be a case of penny wise, pound foolish to exterminate them all.
Taking a step back, no one is sure if there really exists a technique that can seal the 'Karma' in one go. If there isn't, Shin'yu might still need to rely on the power of the Uzumaki Clan to develop new sealing techniques.
The above are the conclusions reached after Guang's analysis and Shin'yu's own careful consideration.
Although, at first... he really thought about barging directly into Whirlpool Tide Village.
Soon, accompanied by the Uzumaki members, Shin'yu, along with Nen, handed over the storage scroll. After the warehouse gatekeeper's appraisal, it was confirmed that they were all fine swords from the Forging Blades Workshop, and their goods were not problematic.
While Uchiha Nen went to collect the money, the leading man from before immediately approached Shin'yu and said in a low voice:
"Brother, your Merchant Guild's business spans the Five Lakes and Four Seas, so you definitely know more than we do. How about you do us a favor and take a look for us?"
He nodded towards the direction of the prison, where the "Uninvited Guests" that the Uzumaki Clan had captured a few days ago were being held.
Shin'yu rubbed his chin, "You mean, you want me to help you identify people?"
"Yes, ah." The man scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "To be honest, our village has always been very isolated, and we know very little about the ninja from the outside world. When it comes to knowledge, we definitely can't compare to you businessmen. I heard that you are very perceptive and can even analyze a person's origins and personality from their appearance and conversation..."
"Well... I can't guarantee that I can see anything," Shin'yu said, feigning difficulty.
The man immediately said, "It doesn't matter. If you really can't see anything, we won't force it. We just want to see if there are any clues."
"Alright." Shin'yu nodded "reluctantly". After Nen returned with the money, he called him together and followed the man into the Whirlpool Tide Village's prison.
