Three days later, Rosen emerged from the secret room.
Ryoko Tsubaki immediately appeared before Rosen.
"Lord Sen, do you have any instructions?"
"Take me to Lord Takaji."
Led by Ryoko Tsubaki, Rosen arrived before Koshi Tsubaki.
Koshi Tsubaki dismissed Ryoko Tsubaki, then observed Rosen, saying meaningfully, "Now you can also be considered a member of the Uzumaki Clan."
Rosen took out the Twenty-Four Qi Refining Incantation and the cultivation method for Light Release.
"Lord Takaji, thank you for your generosity and trust. This is a small token of my appreciation; please accept it."
"I am not after your personal secret techniques."
"I know, but it's always good to be prepared." Rosen discovered that the things the Six Paths Sage researched were not without offensive capabilities; it was mainly that the Ninjutsu he researched for combat were difficult for even the Uzumaki Clan to apply in actual combat.
For example, regarding Seal techniques, there were more than a dozen Seal techniques within the Uzumaki Clan capable of sealing Tailed Beasts, such as the Five Elements Seal and the Eight Trigrams Seal. These Seal techniques could deal with Tailed Beasts but might not be effective against a Jonin, and were even less damaging to an enemy than a single kunai.
"Lord Takaji, you must have heard the saying, 'Possessing a treasure makes one a target of crime.'"
In fact, Rosen wanted to persuade Koshi Tsubaki to let the Uzumaki Clan integrate into Konoha.
Konoha Village was currently in ruins, and the Uzumaki Clan integrating into Konoha would be like sending charcoal in the snow, absolutely ensuring they would receive the same treatment as the Senju Clan and Uchiha Clan.
However, once Konoha Village stabilized, or if a new Sect Leader took over, it would be extremely difficult for the Uzumaki Clan to integrate into Konoha then, because by that time, the benefits would have been mostly distributed.
"The Uzumaki Clan has its own difficulties," Koshi Tsubaki said with a bitter expression.
Rosen thought for a moment. He owed the Uzumaki Clan such a great favor, so he felt he had to do something for them.
As for preventing the Uzumaki Clan's destruction, he didn't have the ability for that. After all, it was a war waged by two great nations against the Land of Whirlpools, and it was specifically aimed at exterminating their entire Family.
Unless he possessed the strength of Senju Hashirama or Uchiha Madara, he would be powerless.
The golden light on Rosen's body began to bloom, and at the same time, a crack appeared between his eyebrows.
This supreme Chakra changed Koshi Tsubaki's expression, and he felt a kinship with this Chakra, like a Bloodline connection.
"Lord Takaji, this eye of mine can see a certain fragment of the future," Rosen said. "I saw that the Uzumaki Clan will be destroyed in thirty years."
Koshi Tsubaki looked at Rosen, his expression very solemn.
"Your Excellency Sen, I wish to make a request of you."
Rosen's heart skipped a beat. Don't tell me he wants me to stop the destruction of a country?
I don't have that ability...
Don't speak, don't speak!
"Please speak."
"I hope you can lead a portion of our clansmen to join Konoha Village and form a second Uzumaki Clan in Konoha Village."
"Huh?" Rosen looked at Koshi Tsubaki in surprise.
"If it's you, I am willing to trust you, and you have now cultivated the Whirlpool Sage Body, so you can be considered one of our Whirlpool clansmen. In our Whirlpool Clan, only the Clan Chief and the Clan Chief's direct descendants are qualified to cultivation the Whirlpool Sage Body, so I hope you can serve as the Clan Chief of the Konoha Whirlpool Clan."
In the Warring States Period, for the continuation of a Family, splitting the Family was a very common practice.
For example, the descendants of the Six Paths Sage, weren't they originally one Family? Later, they still split into several Families.
Just then, Koshi Tsubaki knelt down, his hands flat, his head touching the ground.
"Even so, Lord Takaji is unwilling to give up the Land of Whirlpools?"
"We are descendants of the Six Paths Sage, and we are also responsible for guarding the Six Paths Sage's remains."
Rosen's scalp tingled. No wonder the Land of Whirlpools had always been unwilling to align with any power; it turned out they had been guarding the Six Paths Sage's remains all along.
"Please, Lord Sen, grant this old man's request."
Rosen helped Koshi Tsubaki up: "Yes, I agree."
Koshi Tsubaki didn't know Rosen very well, but his daughter highly praised him.
He didn't trust Rosen, but he trusted his daughter.
As long as his clansmen in Konoha Village had Rosen's protection, and with his daughter also there, they would not face the danger of extinction.
Of course, integrating into Konoha Village would inevitably mean becoming Shinobi, and the risks associated with being a Shinobi were unavoidable.
Koshi Tsubaki did not accept the Twenty-Four Qi Refining Incantation and the cultivation method for Light Release.
Instead, he hoped Rosen would teach them to the Konoha Uzumaki Clan later.
At the same time, he also copied all of the Uzumaki Clan's collected books for Rosen.
It could be said that the Whirlpool Clan had been extremely benevolent towards Rosen.
Rosen left the Land of Whirlpools a year later.
He brought with him one hundred households, totaling three hundred and twenty Whirlpool clansmen.
When Rosen arrived outside Konoha Village with the people, Uzumaki Mito, Senju Hashirama, and Senju Tobirama were all waiting at the gate.
When Uzumaki Mito saw so many of her clansmen, her tears immediately welled up.
She hadn't returned to the Land of Whirlpools for over ten years, and even their communication was through Konoha Village's Shinobi.
