"I'm not sure if the 'Reaper Death Seal' can really work, and that remains to be studied. But if it can really solve the 'Karma' on Lord Kamihane's body, then I am willing to personally perform this technique!"
After thinking for a long time, Uzumaki Kurami gave his promise with a solemn expression.
"Oh? Really? If you do that, you will have to pay the price of your life." Kamihane raised his eyebrows.
"My death is not without value. If it can really solve your problem, it will be a small way to repay your kindness to the Uzumaki clan. I will have no regrets." Uzumaki Kurami took a few deep breaths and said solemnly.
Kamihane lowered his sunglasses, revealing a pair of scarlet, bright eyes. He looked at Kurami's face with some surprise, as if he was seeing the man for the first time.
He looked for a moment and chuckled. "Brother, I'm surprised that you can say such a thing."
"Things are different now." Uzumaki Kurami sighed. "Before, my shoulders were light, and I only needed to be responsible for myself. But now, the burden of the entire Uzumaki clan is on my shoulders. For this clan, and to live up to his entrustment, I must be prepared to sacrifice myself at any time."
Kamihane sat back in his rattan chair and nodded. "Well, in that case, thank you."
"However..." Uzumaki Kurami pondered, "Maybe I am just ignorant and haven't studied the clan's secret techniques thoroughly. Let's do this, I will call a meeting of all the elders this afternoon. They have been immersed in sealing techniques for a long time, maybe they will have different ideas. It's better to brainstorm than to just work behind closed doors."
"Thank you for your trouble." Kamihane nodded slightly.
At this moment, a staggering figure walked to Kamihane's side. Her red hair was smooth, her appearance was beautiful, and she was none other than Uzumaki Kyonoka, the person in charge of the eastern district of Uzushiogakure.
Her injuries were obviously not healed. Although the physical injuries had long healed, the consumed life force could not be recovered in a short time. This could be seen from the dull red color of her hair.
According to the physiological performance of the Uzumaki clan, they could distinguish the strength of their life force based on hair color.
The more scarlet and vivid the hair color, the more vigorous the Uzumaki clan's life force, the better their qualifications, and the better their state. Conversely, pale or faint red hair indicated that they were weak and depleted, either old and frail, or had suffered too much loss, or had been seriously injured.
To Kamihane's surprise, Kyonoka didn't come alone. She was holding a cute little girl in her arms.
"This is..." Kamihane looked inquiringly.
Kyonoka bowed gracefully, her voice soft: "I'm here to express my gratitude."
Kamihane felt embarrassed instead and got up to gently help her up. "There's no need to be so grateful. You can ask Brother Kurami, my actions are also selfish."
"A gentleman judges by actions, not by intentions." She said softly, "In any case, regardless of whether the purpose is good or not, you did save our clan. In terms of reason and emotion, you should accept this gift."
"Besides..." She looked at the girl in her arms tenderly, "If it weren't for you and your nephew, my daughter would have been killed as well. Although she is young, she should always see her benefactor with her own eyes."
Kamihane couldn't refuse her and called over his hard-working nephew, who was casting Wood Release.
"Uncle, what's the matter?"
Nian looked dazed and slightly out of breath. Even he was a little overwhelmed by casting Wood Release on such a scale continuously, but his uncle had said that this was also a way to increase the amount of chakra, so he enjoyed it.
Kamihane took the girl from Kyonoka's arms, and a porcelain doll-like face immediately came into view.
She looked more than one year old, wearing a miniature clan outfit, and her bright red hair was tied into childish pigtails. She didn't cry or make noise, and her two almond-shaped eyes stared at Kamihane's face without blinking, tilting her head slightly.
"Kushina, this is our benefactor." Kyonoka said softly.
"Un an~" The girl babbled.
Hearing this familiar name, Kamihane was slightly startled. He looked at Kushina in his arms carefully again, and a different emotion washed over him.
Time flies, the years pass quickly. Since he was reincarnated into this world, had it been so long...
"Kushina... huh?" He murmured.
"Kushina!" Kushina said her name vaguely, raising her little hands, and a black and white big eye appeared with a little excitement.
Kamihane smiled slightly, but at this moment, Kushina suddenly raised her arm and reached for his sunglasses with her short little hand.
This action immediately frightened Kyonoka, but Kamihane wasn't angry, and instead let Kushina take off his sunglasses.
The glass-like pupils were reflected in his eyes, and Kushina was immediately stunned.
"If you like it, I'll give it to you." Kamihane smiled warmly and handed Kushina to his nephew next to him. Nian immediately took her in a flurry, squeezing a smile on his face.
...
After a busy morning, the Uzumaki Hidden Village, which had been mostly destroyed, had completed the most basic emergency facilities. Of course, this was all thanks to Uchiha Nian, whose "Continuous Pillar House Technique" helped a lot.
The uncle and nephew, as "saviors," were also treated as honored guests by the Uzumaki clan and warmly received.
Uzumaki Kurami took the opportunity of the meeting to summon all the elders of the Uzumaki clan and put forward Kamihane's request.
The process was smooth, and even Kamihane found it unexpected.
He thought that the old fellows would be stubborn, but they were surprisingly unified. After only a slight discussion, they agreed to Uzumaki Kurami's proposal and offered advice, studying the feasibility of the "Reaper Death Seal."
They even nodded to Kamihane's idea of taking a look at the Uzumaki sealing techniques. Kamihane was a little surprised, and the reasons he had prepared early seemed redundant. He raised his eyes slightly, and after seeing Nian's expression, he immediately understood.
The old men had gray hair and had obviously reached the age where they couldn't help but grow old. At this time, they didn't have much combat power left. In last night's attack, they were also treated as objects of protection and hid in the Five Seal Barrier with women and children.
When the enemy broke into the barrier and swung their bloody knives at them, it was Kamihane and Nian who saved everyone's lives.
After Kamihane went to support the battlefield, Nian blocked all the invaders with his own strength. The young man's thin back also became great in their eyes.
It was because of this gratitude that they were willing to treat the uncle and nephew without reservation. After all, if it weren't for them, the Uzumaki clan would have been removed from the ninja world last night, and even the Land of Whirlpools would have become a ruin.
Soon, with Kurami's guarantee, the elders began to talk about the principles of sealing techniques. As Kamihane expected, the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques were really passed down orally!
They didn't have secret scrolls compiled into books. All the unique skills were personally taught by predecessors to their descendants. If the practice was successful, everyone would be happy, but after thousands of years of precipitation, many secret techniques had failed to be passed down. Even the Uzumaki clansmen had failed to inherit them and could only be buried in the sands of time, like the name of the "sealing technique" itself, sealed forever.
The Uzumaki clan wasn't too saddened by this situation. According to their generation-to-generation concept, the failure of inheritance wasn't necessarily a destiny. It meant that the current era didn't need this technique.
Therefore, each generation of clan leaders would accept this result with peace of mind.
