The Uzumaki patriarch spoke in a sorrowful tone, expressing his uncertainty, "Uncle, I find myself in a dilemma. I am unsure whether to send some of our seedlings outside the borders of Uzumaki country or to fight until the bitter end."

Uzumaki Kagutsuchi expressed a strong sense of confidence as he responded to the statement made earlier, "Your words seem to imply that our family is on the verge of destruction, but let me remind you that I am still alive and well. As long as I exist, the Uzumaki family will continue to flourish and thrive. You can rest assured that nothing will happen to us as long as I am here to protect and lead our clan."

As the Uzumaki patriarch spoke hesitantly, "Uncle, but you are clearly-", his words were abruptly cut off by Uzumaki Kagutsuchi, who interrupted with a booming voice. At that very moment, a tremendous amount of chakra, combined with an overwhelming spiritual pressure, surged out from his body, leaving the patriarch breathless and struggling to keep his composure.

With a look of horror, the patriarch stared at his uncle, unable to fathom the sheer magnitude of the power that was being unleashed from an old man who was well over a century old and could pass away at any moment. The patriarch was left in awe, realizing that age was clearly just a number for the Uzumaki clan, and their powers only grew stronger with time.

The Uzumaki patriarch listened intently as Uzumaki Kagutsuchi responded to his dilemma, his voice oozing with confidence, "My dear nephew, do not be afraid. The Uzumaki family has survived countless battles and we will continue to stand strong. We have faced worse threats than this and emerged victorious."

The patriarch tried to interject, "But uncle, the situation we face-"

Uzumaki Kagutsuchi cut him off, his voice booming, "I know the situation, but let me tell you this: I am not just some old man waiting for death. I am still here, with years of experience and a powerful chakra within me. As long as I am alive, the Uzumaki clan will not falter."

The chakra emanating from Kagutsuchi's body was almost too much for the patriarch to handle, leaving him breathless and overwhelmed. He couldn't believe that an elderly man could possess such an immense amount of power. The patriarch couldn't help but admire his uncle's unwavering strength and determination.

With a newfound sense of hope, the patriarch bowed to his uncle and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Uncle. I will follow your lead and do everything in my power to protect our clan."

Following their conversation, the patriarch left the courtyard and headed towards the meeting room to discuss their next steps.

After the patriarch left, Kagutsuchi remained in the courtyard, deep in meditation as he focused on honing his Ryuujin Jakka and becoming more familiar with his newfound power.

....

At that moment, within the confines of the Uzumaki family meeting room, the elders sat in a state of profound despair. They had been racking their brains trying to come up with a plan to save their beloved clan from the looming crisis, but so far, all their efforts had been in vain. The room was filled with the tense atmosphere of frustration and helplessness as the elders exchanged worried glances, unsure of what their next move should be.

As he entered the meeting room, the Uzumaki patriarch took in the despondent expressions on the faces of the elders and felt a wave of disappointment wash over him. He shook his head in dismay before making his way to his seat and settling in with a heavy sigh. The atmosphere in the room was thick with tension and anxiety, as the elders exchanged worried glances and whispered amongst themselves.

The patriarch sat in silence for a few moments, taking in the somber mood of the room before finally speaking up. "I know that things look grim right now, but we cannot afford to give up hope. We must continue to work together and come up with a plan to save our family from this crisis."

"The decision has been made after consulting with my uncle. We have only one option - to fight. Therefore, I order all of you to prepare a defensive enchantment that will cover the entire Uzumaki village. Make sure to supplement it with chakra continuously," announced the patriarch.

The second elder attempted to speak up, but was interrupted by the patriarch's stern tone. "Follow my orders without questioning them," he declared. The other elders, recognizing the patriarch's authority and sense of urgency, remained silent. With that, the patriarch left the meeting room to oversee the preparations for the upcoming battle.

Over the course of the next two days, the elders worked tirelessly to fulfill the Uzumaki patriarch's orders. With great effort, they were able to arrange for a powerful enchantment barrier that spanned across the entire Uzumaki village. The barrier enclosed every member of the Uzumaki clan within its protective shield, providing them with a sense of safety and security against the dangers that lurked outside. The elders ensured that the barrier was reinforced with a steady supply of chakra, which would help to keep it strong and impenetrable for as long as possible.

At the same time on the nearest island located near the Uzumaki country. Inside a camp sat Jonins from three major villages and their commanders were sitting side by side. Although unanimously konoha isn't going to interfere but these three villages also have to give face to Konoha by not sending any Kage level powerhouse or else Konoha may also participate in this. Secondly no leader of the village will be foolish enough to enter other countries territories.

"The scouts I sent to Uzumaki country have reported back. According to them, the Uzumaki family has raised an enchantment barrier around their village. This is a clear indication that they have no interest in accepting our offer," spoke Raiden, the commander of Kumogakure.

"I have been saying from the very beginning that we should attack immediately. Why waste time? See, they didn't even listen to us and now we have wasted precious time," Kai, the leader of Kirigakure and also the strongest of the Seven Swordsmen, spoke up.

"With the Uzumaki family's clear rejection of our offer, we have no choice but to initiate an attack," declared Daichi, the leader of Iwagakure.

"Very well. All ninjas are to be informed to prepare for tomorrow morning's march towards Uzumaki country," declared Raiden, signaling the end of the meeting.

After hearing Raiden's decision, everyone present in the meeting nodded in agreement and left to inform their respective ninjas to prepare for the upcoming attack on the Uzumaki country.
