The trip back to the village was quick and without difficulties, no one tried to attack the Uzumakis, much less approached Yui so she ended up taking care of all of them including the food part that she had to hunt on her own.

The Uzumaki child she saved in her retreat woke up the next day but refused to talk to Yui and joined the other Uzumaki, "His name is Hayato he is 4 years old and he lost his whole family in the attack on the square." Hana who was elected temporary leader of the Uzumakis spoke to Yui about the boy.

"I understand, thanks." Yui replied and prepared to leave the tent they were in but Hana grabbed her arm and lowered her head a little, "Miss Yui, can you really protect us?" She asked with a look full of despair and hope on her face.

"To claim that I can protect them would be wrong of me after all even my own safety is at stake now, but I will do everything possible to protect it." She responded and gave Hana a consoling smile before she walked out of the tent.

After leaving Yui moved towards a fire and sat around it, the silence of the night along with the crackle of the burning flames made her mind wander, "What to do." She muttered and drew her sword at her waist.

(Save successful.)

The silver blade now covered in thick dried blood and small cracks made it look extremely menacing, however Yui had no hesitation and placed her finger near the blade sheath before starting to run the blade.

Flashbacks of people killed by the sword began to run through Yui's mind quickly, their screams, looks of despair, and even their last breaths she remembered everything before confronting them and making peace with them.

The process was fast in real time but very slow for Yui, when she finished she was already sweating and threatening to cry at that moment but she held on and looked at the blade once more.

The place where she swiped her finger completely wiped the blade away revealing its silvery glow, "Never forget Yui, take responsibility for every death you caused." She said to herself and completely wiped the blade clean before putting it away.

Despite being in a cruel world where strength meant everything she still kept her values ​​lower or as a good warrior knows, her honor, the passing of the wind through the trees formed a small tune with the environment showing the beautiful figure of Yui.

"Huh? Who's there!" Yui opened his eyes suddenly and looked back and saw a small shadow running back towards the camp, "A boy?" She wondered and thought about who it could be but stopped thinking about it after a while and went back to enjoying the moonlight.

Hayato who was watching Yui earlier ran quickly back to his tent with his small hand on his heart and breathing heavily, he sneaked out today to see what Yui was doing.

In Hayato's heart and mind he doesn't trust and deeply hates all ninjas in the shinobi world, however there was still that sliver of doubt that kept him from totally hating this world and that splinter was Yui.

He left today with the aim of sailing doing something bad and proving his point but beyond asking for forgiveness the people he killed she didn't and not only that but his actions increased the doubt in Hayate's heart.

"Are all ninjas really bad, or is she an exception?" Hayate wondered as he looked back.

------------------------------------------------- ---------

The trip in total lasted 1 month including the boat pass, as a messenger had already been sent ahead by the time they arrived at the village Yui was surrounded by two hundred ninjas.

"Miss Yui please come with us, the Mizukage summons you." A special forces ninja told Yui before showing her the way however Yui didn't move and looked at him.

The ninja felt through his mask that his life was on the line and he sweated hard before the feeling faded and Yui walked past him, "When the meeting is over if even one Uzumaki is missing I'll crucify you at the village gates along with anyone that's important to you." She whispered in the ninja's ear making him shiver slightly.

Of course she wouldn't fulfill this threat but it was functional as no one would now dare touch the Uzumaki, the commotion that happened when Yui entered the village surrounded by ninjas attracted the attention of everyone who sneaked into the house and peeked out the window.

"How boring." Yui muttered as they walked through the village, she couldn't run as this could be said to be a threat so all she could do was accompany the ninjas to the Mizukage's office.

After 40 long minutes of the local population looking at Yui they finally arrived at the office and Yui had to leave her spear and sword at the entrance in order to continue, she walked through a few more corridors before entering a door with Mizukage writing.

" Welcome." As if he were a super villain the third Mizukage said and swiveled his chair around to face Yui, all that was left for this comical scene is Yui saying he's going to finish him off and the Mizukage reveal their plans before an epic final battle between good and evil.

" Excuse me." Yui said and entered the office before sitting down in front of the Mizukage and the two facing each other for a while, in the shadows of the office two elite squads were with their hands on their weapons ready to attack any threat.

After a long 5 minutes of tension Mizukage opened his mouth, "You are really capable huh, on your first mission you caused severe damage to almost all the main villages and entered the bingo book, Miss Shi." He said jokingly and showed Yui a scroll.

(Note: Shi means death, but with some additions you can say death.)

On the parchment it showed a complete page with all the information shown and revealed by Yui so far.

(Issuance for reward: Alive or dead.

Target: Ninja from Kirigakure nicknamed Shi.

Strength: Elite jounin, next to Kage.

Chakra Natures: Thunder, fire, wind, water, wind, and other unknowns that form poison in Chakra form.

Known Jutsus: Water Chakra Mode, remaining unknown.)

Right after that there was a description about her, her combat abilities and a photo in addition to the given reward value for each village, "150 million!" Yui mentally yelled as he saw the reward over her head but didn't let any emotion show on her face.

" I must say that your conquers are quite big, you killed important Kekkei Genkai users from each village in a single battle by slapping 3 of the five villages in the face and best of all, this is the reward issued only by the villages, I received information that the clans of the people you killed will issue bounties of their own probably raising that number by another 100 million hahaha." Mizukage said laughing but as he was laughing to himself then he soon lost the fun.

"Get down to business." Yui said bluntly leaving him rather embarrassed but her face turned serious again, "I believe you understand your current situation don't you?" He said looking into Yui's eyes looking for any information he could get from her but Yui didn't show anything.

"We are under your family's ownership and the other villages are dying to kill you so desertion is not an option. I think all you can do is obey me to ensure your safety and that of your family."

Mizukage said with a bit of menace in his voice but Yui's face didn't change making him a little annoyed, "Let me explain something to you." Yui said and lightly placed her hand on the table.

Crack!

The table broke into two perfect halves, one on each side, "Believe me if at any point you even think about hurting my mother I will erase this village from history even if it costs me my life." Yui didn't need to demonstrate Chakra or intent assassin.

When Mizukage looked into her eyes he saw a big black wolf in her with him being a small lamb separated from the herd, after Yui's functional threat the two traded as equals for a while before the meeting ended and Mizukage started going over the terms.

"So we will protect your family and the Uzumaki plus any other refugee you bring later in exchange will you become Saiken's jinchuuriki and obey the village commands as long as it's not correct extermination orders?" He repeated and Yui nodded in agreement.

"Very well, we close here." He said and Yui said goodbye before leaving, a few moments after Yui left the building the elite squad leader approached the Mizukage, "Sir is it really good to let her be a jinchuriki? It won't just make her more dangerous to the village?" He asked doubtfully but Mizukage smiled in response.

" If you think like that it's really bad but there are political problems around owning a Biju, if she ever defected to another village being the 6-tailed Jinchiriki this village would become the number 1 enemy of all villages, so we put one sure she's from our village and totally loyal even though she's not like that but the enemies don't know it."
