CHAPTER XXI

"Since the Night Moon Clan can provoke these ninja clans near the Vortex Country to wage war, this war is probably not so simple..."

Zhu Jian thought to himself, because the world knows that the Vortex and the Thousand Hands are both distant relatives and allies.

When the Vortex Clan is faced with a crisis, they will inevitably ask the Thousand Hands Clan for help.

Thinking of this, the complexion of the pillar couldn't help but change slightly.

The Night Moon Clan is not afraid of the Thousand Hands who are allies of the Vortex, and in addition to knowing that the Thousand Hands will definitely not be able to send too many forces to the Vortex to help, there must be other back-hands.

Otherwise, it is simply unreasonable to go through such a lot of work.

"Could it be... Is it the Uchiha clan? ”

The most likely situation right now is that when the Uzumaki Clan faces a great enemy and the Thousand Hands send reinforcements, there are other clans that will contain all the power of the Thousand Hands in the Fire Realm.

Only in this way can the Night Moon Clan achieve its goal with limited power expenditure.

The Thousand Hands have rivals like rivals, and the Night Moon Clan is no exception.

The forces they can send to wage war against the Uzumaki are similarly limited.

And even if a part of the power has been withdrawn, there are only a few possibilities for the family that can drag down the remaining strength in the Thousand Hands Clan.

The most likely of these is the Uchiha clan.

This clan is also stationed on the border of a small country very close to the Fire Country, and can gather strength in a short period of time to contain the Thousand Hands Clan.

"Between the doors, between the tiles, between the boards."

Pillar was worried, if things really turned out to be as he thought, maybe the Senju and Uchiha clans had already exchanged fire in the more than a day since they left.

Of course, he didn't think that the Uchiha would be able to destroy the Thousand Hands in this battle, but he couldn't control himself to think about the safety of his relatives at home, especially those younger brothers.

"That's why the Thousand-Hand Buddha will mobilize so many clansmen as much as possible, it seems that they plan to attack directly and defeat the opponents besieging the Vortex clan at one time."

Pillar saw through the battle situation, so the Thousand Hands Zhi Zhi did not let the Thousand Hands who had just arrived in a hurry to camp and rest, because I am afraid that from the beginning, the order given to him by the Thousand Hands Buddha was quite urgent.

These seven or eight hundred thousand-handed people can't stay here for too long.

So along the way, they didn't encounter any enemies between the pillars.

Because the enemy also understands what the key point of this war is, he should have assembled long ago and prepared to deal with the next big war.

Sure enough, the matters discussed by the Thousand Hands Naoto and Uzumaki Ashina in the big tent were the same as what Tsuruma had expected.

The Uzumaki clan often lives in this island country, and although most of the people are hot, they don't like to fight too much, and they don't take the initiative to attack other ninja families at all.

But this time, the Thousand Hands Straight Strategy came to relieve the siege of the Uzumaki Clan, and for this reason, the Thousand Hands Clan is likely to be caught in a battle now, so Uzumaki Ashina agreed to the former's plan to take the initiative to attack without any hesitation.

Inside the tent, an order soon came out, and all the Vortex people in this camp immediately assembled.

...

Soon, hundreds of ninjas of the Uzumaki clan in the camp also began to assemble towards the open space in the camp.

"Is she a warrior too?"

The pillar saw the girl again, and this time the girl walked out of the tent, but she didn't stay long, just rushed towards the gathering place of the Vortex people.

From where the pillars were, he couldn't see what the girl looked like, but he saw that the girl was tying up her long red hair with a headband when she came out of the tent.

However, this question in my heart is superfluous, and the people who can stay in this camp are naturally warriors.

It didn't take long for the Vortex people to complete the assembly.

The leaders of both sides stepped out of the tent, and immediately afterward, the order to regroup was issued.

The teams of the two clans are to be combined and reorganized.

The young ninjas in both clans are arranged at the back of the team, and the reason why they are so distributed is naturally because the combat effectiveness of these young ninjas is still insufficient compared to adult ninjas.

Because the ninjas of the two clans will immediately launch a strong attack on the enemy who is waging war against the whirlpool, and the strong will take precedence.

So, unsurprisingly, Pillar stood in the last row of the line.

Of course, although there can be no more fighters who are only five years old like him, he is certainly not the only one standing here.

And the girl who first made the mood in Zhuma's heart fluctuate was also standing side by side with him.

It's just that the girl stands at the top of the row, and the column is at the bottom.

The pillars looked sideways, and this time they were finally able to see the girl's full picture.

Then there was a slight fluctuation in his heart.

The girl has a delicate goose egg face, which is the same as the one in Pillar's memory.

However, the facial features of the two sides are very different.

The facial features of this girl from the Vortex clan are much more delicate, her pupils are very beautiful, and the pillars can't help but look at the girl twice, but he is not moved.

It was the girl's eyelashes, and in my memory, although the person's eyelashes were not particularly long, they were very thick, and the columns had stared at her eyelashes for a long time at a very close distance.

The two of them are also very similar in this regard.

Pillar was looking at the girl at the top of his row, and the others were all watching him, after all, Pillar was only five years old and looked like a real brother.

In this row, both men and women are taller than him.

In the face of these scrupulous gazes, the pillars naturally looked at one of them, and then the closest to him was a very well-behaved girl, and the girl felt like a little sister next door.

But unlike the girl's well-behaved appearance, her personality is quite direct, even if she is not familiar with it at all, she still asks the pillar directly: "How old are you..."

She didn't have any doubts about his abilities because of his appearance, just pure curiosity.

"Exactly."

Zhu Jian smiled in his heart, he was worried about how to talk to him to find out something he was interested in.

"Actually, I'm not much younger than you, just small."

Zhu Ma casually made up a lie and asked, "Maybe I'm bigger than you, how old are you?" ”

Then he added: "By the way, let's talk about the name, after all, we are also comrades-in-arms and distant relatives." ”

"Really?"

After all, the girl in front of her was still young, so she didn't consider that this was a routine between the pillars, so she replied cheerfully: "My name is Tsuumaki Aoi, and I am ten years old this year. ”

"Hmm." Tsuruma nodded, and her gaze followed Aoi Uzumaki to the boy next to her.

Then Aoi bumped him lightly with her elbow, and the boy revealed his name and age.

In fact, there are only five people in this row where the pillars are located, and the children's minds are simple, not to mention that the pillars are friends and enemies, so there is no special guard.

He wrote down all these names, and of course the only person who paid attention to the pillars was the girl who was furthest away from him at first.

The girl suddenly turned her head to meet the gaze cast from between the pillars.

Immediately afterwards, a light smile appeared on her face, which made people feel like a spring breeze.

"Uzumaki Mito, I'm nine years old."

"Nani?"

When the pillar heard this, he was surprised in his heart.

At this moment, it wasn't because the girl in front of him who made him feel a little familiar was Uzumaki Mito.

It's Mito's age.

"Uzumaki Mito is four years older than the original Hokage?"

"It's actually a sister and brother love!"

...
