After reading the memories of the young and old who tried to open the barrier, Gin had a clear understanding of what happened in the years following his departure.
Knowing that some elderly people close to him were dead, Gin gritted his teeth in fury and began walking in the direction of the city.
At this time, Uzumaki Island was a small island, with an area of only about 1000 square kilometers.
Besides a few surrounding villages inhabited by civilians who work the land and livestock, there is only one main city where the Uzumaki clan lives.
Since the entire Uzumaki clan was concentrated in this single city, Gin chose a secluded spot outside the city to build his house and moved there when he was 20 years old.
Since it was a secluded place, Gin could build all the defenses around it without anyone bothering him.
It was when he showed her the amenities he had built in his house that her parents asked to live there when Gin went on a trip.
Luckily, Gin agreed and her parents were able to take refuge there when they were attacked.
Gin didn't take long to enter Uzumaki City and quickly attracted attention.
None of those who saw him enter recognized him as the legendary Gin Uzumaki.
The reason Gin attracted everyone's attention was that chakra chains were coming out of his hands and dragging 20 red-haired people.
5 elderly people and 15 members of the Uzumaki clan between 20 and 30 years old.
Although they did recognize the 5 elders as clan elders, none dared to step forward and speak for them.
The pressure that emanated from Gin's body as she walked made no one want to block her path.
Although no one blocked their path, some moved quickly in the direction of the patriarch's mansion to report what they saw.
Gin saw this but didn't care.
Fifteen minutes later, Gin was near the city center when several silhouettes appeared.
Leading this group was the patriarch Akiga Uzumaki.
Alongside the patriarch Akiga Uzumaki were his eldest son and several clan elders.
In addition to them, several members of the Uzumaki clan were behind them.
In total, there were 40 people who arrived and stood in front of Gin.
When they arrived in front of Gin, everyone's attention was on the 20 people who had been dragged by Gin and who had various injuries on their arms and faces from being scraped by the dirt and stones on the ground.
"Gin, you're back"
Drawing everyone's attention, the patriarch's voice was heard in everyone's ears.
Not only from the group, but also from several members of the Uzumaki clan who gathered around watching what was happening.
"And"
"..."
"You owe me an explanation, Akiga," Gin said as he looked into the eyes of the Uzumaki clan patriarch.
Akiga, for his part, just sighed.
He already regretted his previous decision, and now Gin appeared before everyone who thought he had died.
He knew Gin would be angry about what happened, but Akiga wanted his son to inherit his position.
With Gin's strength, Akiga knew that everyone would be dead if he didn't act quickly.
"Let's go somewhere else to talk, Gin."
"I'll give you an explanation somewhere else," Akiga finished, looking around.
"no"
"I want an explanation here and now," Gin said.
Suddenly…
"Now!" shouted Akiga and 4 figures shot out into the surrounding area.
"Barrier of 4 violet flames!" shouted the 4 figures and formed a barrier that blocked an area around the place.
"What's going on?"
All the Uzumaki who were around asked worriedly when they were trapped inside the barrier.
Gin watched this with complete composure and was not taken by surprise when Akiga Uzumaki threw a scroll in his direction.
BOOOOOOOOOOOM
A huge explosion occurred where the scroll fell, killing the 20 members of the Uzumaki clan that Gin was dragging along.
The explosion was so strong that it pushed back the other members of the Uzumaki clan who were still worried about being trapped in a barrier.
Akiga, his son, and the other elders looked worriedly at the place where Gin had been standing and tried to see through the smoke generated by the explosion.
As the clan patriarch, Akiga had access to the barrier surrounding the city and was able to see Gin from the patriarch's mansion when he was notified that someone was dragging the clan elders and heading towards the patriarch's mansion.
When he saw it was Gin, he knew that he and the others were in trouble, so he quickly formed a plan in case things went wrong afterward.
He made an agreement with the other elders, and four of them formed a barrier to trap Gin here and use all their strength to kill him.
And the witnesses?
Akiga and the others agreed that if Gin did not follow them to a secluded place where they could secretly carry out their plans, they would kill all the witnesses and blame Gin.
The barrier of the 4 violet flames could turn dark violet, blocking the view of everyone gathered outside, preventing anyone else from finding out what happened here.
"There!" Akiga shouted, and a chain of chakra shot out of his arm and headed to a place to his left.
Everyone turned to look in the direction the chain was heading and saw the light around that place fluctuate and a figure appear as it dodged the patriarch's diamond chain.
It was Gin, who had seals around his body and manipulated light to hide his figure.
And not only that, these seals also blocked his scent, sound, and chakra, making him very difficult to find.
None of the elders of the Uzumaki clan noticed his presence.
Of course, Akiga wasn't the patriarch for nothing.
Akiga Uzumaki had a great detection ability, so he was able to find Gin in a short time.
Meanwhile, Gin kept dodging the patriarch's diamond chain, and soon the other elders joined in when they realized that the patriarch couldn't catch him.
In a short time, the patriarch, the elders, and two other members of the Uzumaki clan used diamond chains to try to catch Gin, who seemed to be flying over the ground, dodging their attempts.
The diamond chains were a very difficult technique that few members of the Uzumaki clan could use, so the other members of the Uzumaki clan, who were behind the patriarch and the elders, could not use these chakra chains.
Instead, they began throwing kunai with attached explosive tags that explode upon impact with the ground or some chakra chain.
"¡Aaaaaaaaaah!"
The other members of the Uzumaki clan who were watching what was happening and were trapped inside the barrier screamed in fear as they escaped from the range of the explosions.
But even though they wanted to escape the place, the purple barrier prevented them from leaving.
Moreover, they saw someone touch the barrier and immediately become engulfed in flames and die shortly afterwards.
Between the violet barrier that would burn them to death and the explosions of the battle in the middle of the barrier, these people could only hide and huddle together in a secluded place, begging someone to save them.
Meanwhile, in the battle, Patriarch Akiga, his eldest son, and the other elders continued trying to capture Gin.
The battle method of most of the Uzumaki clan was the use of seals in battles.
Most of these seals would be used to trap an enemy in one place, preventing their movement or use of chakra.
In addition to placing seals on the ground as a trap for when the enemy stepped on them and became trapped, they also placed seals directly on the bodies of their enemies.
But the key to that type of battle style was that they would have to be able to touch their enemy in order to place a seal on their bodies, so the difficulty was high.
To overcome this difficulty, an ancestor of the Uzumaki clan previously created the technique of the diamond sealing chains, which could be used to attack from a distance, either by stabbing and/or trapping their enemies, or using the chains to place seals.
This last use of the diamond chains was particularly powerful in the hands of a skilled Uzumaki.
A skilled Uzumaki could use the diamond sealing chains to place seals on the bodies of their enemies, and if that wasn't dangerous enough, they would also use it to place seals on the battlefield.
Aside from dodging the diamond sealing chains, the enemy must also watch out for traps placed on the ground without their knowledge.
