Naruto: In the name of the Senju, he made the ninja world tremble.

The coast of the Tea Country was still shrouded in a thin mist in the early morning. The salty and fishy sea breeze came in gusts. Feeling the dampness rushing towards her face, Chiba couldn't help but frown slightly.

After listening to Anko's story last night and sorting through her own memories, Chiba roughly guessed the identity of the attacker, with a 70% chance that it was Orochimaru who had committed atrocities.

The archives in Konoha contain records of Orochimaru's missions over the years, totaling approximately 1,400 missions, both large and small. This doesn't even include the number of missions he commanded during the Second and Third Shinobi World Wars. What an insane number!

Those unaware of the inside story might think that Orochimaru's defection was entirely due to being exploited by Konoha, since the Fourth Hokage only completed 39 S-rank missions, while Orochimaru completed 108.

Orochimaru, a researcher, should have been a shut-in geek who confined himself to the laboratory every day, but he became one of Konoha's recognized "mission experts," and there's definitely a reason for that.

"Experimental materials"—that's why Orochimaru went out. For example, he obtained rare experimental subjects like Jugo Tensei, but more often, he used experimental subjects as consumables.

Anko remembers that she and Orochimaru carried out a mission in a coastal city and even set foot in the Land of the Sea. However, there are large gaps in Anko's memory. If Chiba is not mistaken, Orochimaru has erased the scenes of her being experimented on.

Just as Qianyu was brainstorming, a hurried footstep broke the tranquility of the early morning.

"Lord Senyu... Lord Senyu, something has happened!"

The usually composed Chairman Shirakawa now had his brows furrowed tightly, his face filled with anxiety, anger, and helplessness.

"President Shirakawa, judging from your expression, has something happened to the Sea Kingdom's merchant caravan?"

Qianyu looked calmly at the man in front of him who was constantly wiping away sweat. His employment relationship with the man had ended, and the only thing they were still in contact with was that they were both waiting for the caravan from the Sea Kingdom.

Chairman Shirakawa gave a bitter smile, took a few steps forward, and deliberately lowered his voice, "Lord Chiyu, to be honest, the Sea Kingdom's caravan has run into trouble and can no longer get close here."

"Unable to get close here?" Qianyu raised an eyebrow, her tone icy. "Was it a shipwreck or something else?"

The attack happened last night, and this incident happened this morning; the coincidence is unbelievable.

"It's unclear at the moment, but we've heard the ship started leaking in the middle of the night and is currently undergoing intensive repairs," Chairman Shirakawa said, gritting his teeth. "This must be related to that bastard Kado. He rented out almost every merchant ship of any size last night. What a coincidence!"

Chiyu knew that some fool dared to interfere, and her eyes turned completely cold. It seemed that this little dwarf, Kado, was closely related to the attack on her own people last night.

"President Shirakawa, how long would it take you to find a ship now?" Chiyu looked at the impatient President Shirakawa and couldn't help but admire his good luck; he might just snag another bargain.

"It's been almost two hours, but the journey from here to where the Sea Kingdom's caravan is docked is less than an hour. I'm afraid we won't make it in time," Chairman Shirakawa looked at Chiyu with some confusion. "Lord Chiyu, Kado's fleet has already set sail."

"That's none of your business. President Shirakawa might have some advantages in arriving late. If he arrives too early, he might die young too," Chiyu said, turning and leaving.

Hearing the chill in Qianyu's tone, Chairman Shirakawa bowed deeply behind him, determined to repay the other party properly if this deal succeeded.

Ten minutes later, on the calm sea, three figures swiftly waded through the water, their movements extremely fast. Before long, they spotted several large ships ahead, which were none other than Kado's fleet.

As Qianyu passed by the fleet, she glanced at Kado, who was standing confidently at the bow of the ship. She didn't say anything, but turned around and ran towards the black dot in the distance, which was the landing place of the Sea Kingdom's merchant caravan.

"Sword Beast, I don't know what you want, but don't cause me any trouble, okay?" Kado said somewhat uneasily, listening to the Sword Beast beside him, who was panting heavily and whose eyes were following the departing figures of the three ninjas.

"Alright, but Guild Master Kado needs to trouble you with something else," the cloaked beast turned to look at Kado, "Since you're our employer, I won't lift a finger. You'll have to jump into the sea yourself."

"What?"

A moment later, the sword beast glanced at Kado, who was struggling in the sea, and gently wiped the blood from his fingertips. Several corpses fell to the ground around him; they were Kado's bodyguards.

"Now listen to my orders, full speed ahead! Anyone who dares to slack off, I'll kill them!" The Blade Beast sneered, baring its sharp teeth as it looked at the shipwrights around it. At the same time, the other ships in the fleet were inexplicably pierced through, and screams of agony rang out. The appetizer before revenge had begun.

On the other side, Chiyu and his two companions, who were not stingy with their chakra, had already arrived at the location where the Land of the Sea's fleet was anchored. The three of them jumped and boarded the merchant ship marked with the Summoning Island symbol.

The crew on this merchant ship was quite diverse, including ordinary merchants, guards, and sailors. However, the highest-ranking people were the group standing in the middle. Qianyu could sense that these people were faintly circulating chakra, clearly indicating that they were not ordinary merchants.

The next second, a look of shock flashed across Qianyu's eyes.

Behind this group of people, a slightly thin person, who was trying to hide his figure by keeping his head down, entered his senses. The enormous chakra and the familiar power within him.

This is the bloodline power of the Uzumaki clan, exactly the same as what Chiba sensed in Uzumaki Kana.

The Kingdom of the Sea, the Island of Spirits? So it was that ghost? Qianyu also remembered that he had seen a similar scene in his previous life, where a whirlpool girl transformed into a spirit and waited for someone to seal the ultimate spirit beast on the island.

It's true that timing is everything. Now that she has met the Uzumaki clan, Qianyu naturally doesn't want to give up. However, she should first check the situation to avoid any unexpected events.

"You are the leader of the Konoha team, truly a hero among young men," Hai Shiyun greeted with a smile, taking out his identity token. "I am Hai Shiyun, may I ask how you are addressed?"

"Konoha Ninja, Senju Senba."

As soon as Qianyu said this, Yue and Hongdou looked at him in surprise, wondering why he would mention his surname as well, since the captain had never done this before.

Hai Shiyun, who was on the other side, also felt that the surname sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember it in his haste. He could only laugh politely and then ordered his men to fetch the spirit scroll.

Meanwhile, Honoka Uzumaki, with her blonde hair, was trembling slightly. She was too familiar with the Senju surname, which was why she had to hide. The scene of the Land of Whirlpools being destroyed was still vivid in her mind, and Konoha did not offer any help.
