One Dragon Tail Kick will shatter your Susanoo dream!

Within the territory of the Land of Fields, in a narrow area, a transparent light screen could be seen, shimmering faintly. Several red-haired elders sat cross-legged on the ground, forming hand seals.

Behind him were dozens of Uzumaki clan members with similar red hair. The elder leading them cursed at the Kirigakure ninja who were using ninjutsu to attack the barrier.

"If you want to capture ninjas, we three old men can go with you. Why won't you even spare civilians and children!"

A Kirigakure Jonin with a scar near his eye, wearing a disdainful expression, crossed his arms across the barrier and then signaled the others to stop attacking.

"Maintaining such a large barrier must be very tiring. If you are willing to give up the resistance, I can let half of the Uzumaki clan civilians go!"

Among the crowd, three black-haired youths covered in blood struggled to their feet. One of them, a young-looking and cute female ninja, was a young woman.

"Elder Toshihiko Uzumaki, please do not believe their promises. I have already sent out a distress signal, and the master will arrive soon!"

Despair was evident in Toshihiko's eyes as he looked with some concern at his two companions sitting cross-legged to the side.

"Miss Hunting, this is a calamity for the Uzumaki clan, and I'm truly sorry that it has affected you, but..."

Before he could finish speaking, the two elderly men who were sitting cross-legged coughed up blood and fell into a deep sleep without making a sound. They were old and their strength had declined significantly, so they could no longer maintain the barrier!

A ripple appeared in the barrier, which then rapidly shrank. The crowd huddled together in fear, and the space gradually became crowded.

"Uzumaki Toshihiko said with a wry smile."

"Damn it, is our branch of the lineage doomed too?!"

Upon seeing this, the Kirigakure Jonin's eyes revealed a greedy look, and he immediately formed hand seals.

"Water escape, water dragon bullet!"

The giant dragon formed by the water flow crashed into the barrier, causing a violent surge of waves.

The greed in the eyes of the Kirigakure Jonin intensified, and he couldn't help but burst into laughter. He looked at Kari, whose left hand was injured, in the crowd and let out a lewd laugh.

"You were the one who was always going against us, weren't you? Once the barrier disappears and we've dealt with these red-haired materials, I'm going to take the brothers out for a good time!"

The dozen or so Hidden Mist ninjas behind him, the weakest of whom were all elite Chunin-level, also burst into laughter.

"Ah, I love these delicate little girls the most! I'll line up behind the adults!"

"Hehe, let's go together then, okay!"

Uzumaki Toshihiko looked behind him at his terrified clansmen and sighed deeply.

He knew that most of his people had no way out, but they were still making a last-ditch effort.

"My lord, if I give up resisting, please spare Miss Hunting and her two companions!"

"Otherwise, I will fight to the death to prevent you from getting what you want. At worst, my entire Uzumaki clan will commit suicide!"

The rest of the Vortex Clan, though terrified, also spoke up after hearing what their elder had to say.

"That's right, let Miss Shou and the others leave!"

"Yes, my Uzumaki clan would never implicate our friends!"

"That's right, otherwise you'd only get a pile of useless corpses!"

The threat from the Uzumaki clan made the Kirigakure Jonin somewhat unhappy. If he really followed their advice, he would not only fail to achieve anything, but might even be executed by the Third Mizukage!

The Hidden Mist Jonin reluctantly stopped forming hand seals and then said helplessly.

"I understand. I swear by the honor of the Third Mizukage, this three-person team can leave safely!"

After saying that, he gestured for his subordinates behind him to disperse!

The barrier allowed exit but not entry. Hunting looked reluctant, gritting his teeth as he tried to hold on, but then he saw his companions bleeding profusely.

"I'm sorry everyone, I have to leave with two of my companions!"

Faced with the threat of death, the members of the Uzumaki clan became calm, each offering a smile and their blessings.

"Hehe, thank you three for taking good care of me these past two days!"

This is a short, chubby young man from the Whirlpool Clan. He was being chased and unfortunately fell behind his group. It was Hunt's teammates who risked their lives to save him!

"Thank you for your efforts. Please make sure you return to the village safely!"

A beautiful woman with swirling hair smiled, hoping to reassure the young girl in front of her and make her leave...

"Sisters, you guys are amazing! I want to be a powerful ninja when I grow up!"

A red-haired, chubby-faced child peeked out from under his father's arm and whispered.

With tears welling in his eyes, he bowed deeply.

"I'm sorry everyone, I've settled my teammates in and I'll definitely come back to help!"

Toshihiko Uzumaki nodded with a smile.

"Miss Hunting, please leave quickly, I can hold on for a while longer!"

The Kirigakure Jonin outside the barrier urged them on and began forming hand seals again.

Seeing this, Shou helped up his two injured teammates and left from behind the barrier.

Meanwhile, none of the Kirigakure members on the front pursued them, and Uzumaki Toshihiko breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

Half an hour later, the light of the barrier began to appear and disappear intermittently, then vanished in a flash. The Kirigakure Jonin appeared in front of Uzumaki Toshihiko in an instant.

He grabbed the other person by the neck and lifted them into the air.

"Old man, you actually managed to hold on for so long. You must have exhausted your chakra to buy enough time for that girl and your companions! You're so weak now!"

Blood trickled from Toshihiko Uzumaki's mouth, but his tone remained calm.

"Hehe, the Uzumaki clan will never betray their friends..."

Suddenly, the Kirigakure Jonin covered his forehead and burst into laughter, then threw Uzumaki Toshihiko into the crowd.

"Hahaha, you really think that little girl can leave so easily!"

Supported by his clansmen, Uzumaki Toshihiko looked at the other party with a nervous expression.

"Don't try to fool this old man. There was clearly no one who went after them!"

The Kirigakure Jonin fiddled with his ninja sword, holding it horizontally across his chest.

"Yeah, we didn't go after them. Who told you that the rear was definitely safe?"

Footsteps echoed through the forest, and then nearly 10 squads, totaling almost 40 Kirigakure ninja, appeared instantly behind the Uzumaki clan members.

The ninja squad at the head of the group had murderous intent in their eyes, and on their backs were the unconscious members of the Hunting Squad.

The opponent instantly appeared in front of the Hidden Mist Jonin, knelt down, and placed Kari, whose cheek was covered in blood, on the ground.

"Lady Aoi, the fish that was caught has been brought in!"

A lewd grin spread across Aoi's face as she used her ninja sword to cut open the vest on Kari's chest, revealing his fair skin.

"Heh heh, you really think you can escape!"

Uzumaki Toshihiko and his people roared in anger.

"You wretched bastard, let go of the Hunting Maiden!"

Aoi Ueto looked at Kari with a wicked smile, his hands gradually reaching towards the peak.

"I'm not only going to play with her, I'm going to play with her right in front of you bunch of useless ninja!"

"Hey hey hey..."

Most of the Hidden Mist ninjas around him also wore expressions of watching a good show and made mocking noises!
