"What do you mean?"
Fire Fly was somewhat confused. "Just because red hair is a mark of the Uzumaki Clan?"
"Exactly! The Uzumaki Clan is far too rare. With the death of the Fourth Hokage's wife, whether any Uzumaki Clan members remain in the Shinobi World is currently unknown.
And members of the Uzumaki Clan are the best vessels for sealing tailed beasts. Do you think Kirigakure, which has two tailed beasts, would let an Uzumaki go?
You still have nearly a year to think it over."
With that, Uchiha Yan slowly rose to his feet. "Captain, let's go!"

"Ah..."
Fire Fly sighed. "We can only cooperate with Konoha. At
