Ch-10 Team from Konoha

The Uzumaki country was infiltrated by a group of 20 ninjas dressed in the customary Anbu attire.
The leader, who had white hair and wore a mask on his face, spoke to the group, "As we approach the Uzumaki country, stay vigilant for potential ambushes or traps. Our top priority is to rescue any survivors and obtain all of the sealing techniques belonging to the Uzumaki family. We cannot allow these techniques to be acquired by other villages."
"Understood, Captain White Fang," replied the other members of the team.
"If the three major villages have taken any captives, what should our course of action be?" inquired a member of the Anbu team.
"Attempt to rescue the survivors, but if it proves unfeasible, then..." White Fang didn't finish his sentence, yet everyone present comprehended the implication.
Following White Fang's statement, the team proceeded in silence, exercising the utmost caution and vigilance as they made their way towards the Uzumaki country. Upon arriving at the outskirts of the Uzumaki village, they were taken aback by the sight before them: the houses were intact, and the inhabitants were moving about with smiles on their faces. This was in stark contrast to the team's expectations, as they had envisioned ruined houses, people crying and running for their lives. The reality they encountered was entirely different and completely opposite to what they had imagined.
"Let's halt here and conduct an investigation first to determine what has occurred before proceeding," stated White Fang.
"Agreed. If we act recklessly, we may be mistaken for recruits by the three major villages, and that's the last thing we want," added the deputy captain.
"Hey Bee, could you dispatch your insects to investigate the situation in the Uzumaki country? That way, we can make better decisions," requested White Fang.
The Anbu member, who went by the code name 'Bee,' nodded and began to release bugs from his body, sending them towards the Uzumaki village to gather information. It was evident that Bee was a member of the Aburame clan, known for their ability to communicate and control insects. After ten minutes, the bugs returned to Bee, and he obtained all the necessary information from them.
"Captain White Fang. Following my investigation, it appears that the Uzumaki clan has repelled, or more accurately, annihilated the alliance army of the three major villages. Furthermore, it seems that a single person, named Kagutsuchi, who is the uncle of the current patriarch of the Uzumaki family, accomplished this feat," reported Bee.
"That's impossible! How could a single person possibly annihilate the entire army of the three major villages?" questioned one of the Anbu members.
"According to our intel, there were around 4500 people in the army," added another Anbu member.
"This is the information my insects have gathered, whether you choose to believe it or not," replied Bee, standing by his report.
"Is there anything else to report?" inquired White Fang.
"Also, it appears that all members of the Uzumaki family are overjoyed with their victory. Their patriarch has ordered a celebration tonight," added Bee.
"Captain White Fang, it appears that we have been spotted. A team of ninjas from the Uzumaki family is heading in our direction," reported the sensory Anbu ninja.
"Alright, let's move in their direction. Remember, we are here as support, and we should keep our mission confidential from the village," instructed White Fang. He then led the team towards the approaching Uzumaki ninja team. The rest of the Anbu members followed closely behind him.
The two teams finally met, and the leader of the Uzumaki ninja wasted no time in asking, "Who are you, and what is your purpose for entering the Uzumaki country?"
White Fang stepped forward and removed his mask. He introduced himself, saying, "My name is Hatake Sakumo, and I am here to support the Uzumaki village on behalf of the Konoha village."
The leading Jonin of the Uzumaki village responded with disdain, "Support? Support what? The dead bodies of our Uzumaki family or the sealing techniques of our Uzumaki family?" His contemptuous expression never wavered.
"I assure you, we have no other motives but to support the Uzumaki village." said Sakumo, even though it wasn't entirely true. Admitting their true intentions could cause a permanent rift between Konoha and Uzumaki.
The Jonin leader simply huffed and remained silent towards Sakumo's explanation. He then turned to one of his ninjas and instructed, "Go and inform the patriarch of this." The ninja promptly left to relay the message to their leader.
Uzumaki Kagutsuchi arrived with Mitsuo, the Elders, and the Elite Jonins after a brief wait. Kagutsuchi took the lead and addressed the head Jonin, saying, "Please brief me on everything you know about the Konoha ninjas."
"Of course, Master Kagutsuchi," replied the Jonin, bowing before addressing him further. "The Konoha ninjas arrived in the Uzumaki country half an hour ago and stopped in front of our village after traveling for 20 minutes. They seemed confused, and one of their ninjas sent bugs to scout our village. When we confronted them and asked about their purpose, they claimed to be here to support us. However, I sensed through my Kagura heart eye ability that they were lying."
Upon hearing the Jonin leader's words, Sakumo felt embarrassed. He remembered that only those from the Uzumaki family could awaken the Kagura heart eye ability, but he did not expect that this particular Jonin had awakened the ability and had been keeping a close eye on their every move.
Uzumaki Kagutsuchi looked at Sakumo and spoke, "If my assumption is correct, your main objective must be to collect all the sealing techniques of our Uzumaki family and save any survivors, if possible."
Sakumo replied, "We would have saved any survivors we found."
Kagutsuchi asked, "What if they were captured by the enemy? Would you still save them or let them die?"
Without any hesitation, Sakumo replied, "We would absolutely try our best to save any members of the Uzumaki family."
Kagutsuchi posed another question, "What if you cannot save them but have a chance to kill them? What will you do?"
The deputy captain replied, "Why would we kill them? We will do our utmost to save them."
Sakumo gazed at the deputy captain with a stern expression. The deputy captain realized that if he had stayed silent, they might not have suspected anything, but now that he had spoken, Kagutsuchi would know that he was lying.
Kagutsuchi chuckled at them and said, "I feel sorry for you, having such unreliable teammates."
