After Kaguya Manro and his ninjas finished cheering, he turned to Kaido, who had been silently standing to his left. "Mr. Kaido, let's begin."

Kaido did not respond immediately. He walked to the four corners of the square, crouched down, and placed the Flying Thunder God transfer seals. Once he finished marking all four corners, Kaido turned to the Kaguya ninjas.

"Everyone, stand closer together," he instructed.

Manro immediately relayed the order, "Everyone, close ranks!"

Within moments, five hundred Kaguya ninjas gathered tightly, their weapons ready.

Kaido stepped into the center of the formation, his right hand raised with the thumb, middle, and index fingers extended. "Move!"

In an instant, the five hundred ninjas felt the world around them spin. A strange sensation enveloped them as if they were being pulled through space. Before they could process what was happening, the world stabilized, revealing a new scene.

"Look! That's Uzushio Village!" one of the Kaguya jōnin exclaimed, pointing at the massive village in the distance.

The sight of the village—larger and more fortified than Kaguya Village—left the Kaguya ninjas in awe. The prominent red spiral emblem on the village walls was unmistakable.

"We traveled hundreds of miles in seconds!"

"This is incredible ninjutsu!"

"With this, victory is ours!"

"Let's claim the Uzumaki clan's secret to longevity!"

Morale surged among the Kaguya ninjas, many of whom pulled out bone weapons, ready for battle.

Suddenly, the appearance of a dozen Uzumaki ninjas with their signature fiery red hair interrupted the Kaguya's celebration. The Uzumaki ninjas stared in shock at the enemy force that had materialized out of thin air, just ten miles from their village.

"The Kaguya clan?! How did they get so close?!"

"What are the sensory ninjas and guards doing?!"

Kaguya Manro sneered. "Take them down!"

Within minutes, the Kaguya ninjas had overwhelmed the Uzumaki scouts, their bone weapons cutting through the defenders with brutal efficiency.

Kaido watched from the back and then spoke calmly, "I'll notify Uchiha. When you're ready for a full assault, fire the signal flare."

Manro nodded. "Understood."

Kaido disappeared without another word, vanishing into thin air.

Using the Flying Thunder God Technique, Izuna returned to a forest about 20 miles from the Uchiha clan's territory. There, six hundred Uchiha ninjas stood at the ready, led by Izuna himself.

The group included a mix of veteran fighters and promising young talents, such as Uchiha Gonno, the 13-year-old son of Uchiha Ishiki, and Uchiha Uzuki and Uchiha Soren, both 12 years old. These young prodigies had grown under Izuna's guidance and were eager to prove themselves.

As Izuna's black-robed, masked clone appeared before them, the Uchiha ninjas immediately became wary.

"Uchiha, are you ready?" the masked Kaido clone asked in a hoarse voice.

"We're ready and waiting," Izuna replied coldly, maintaining the illusion of two separate identities.

The younger ninjas stared in awe at Izuna's commanding presence. Though they did not know the masked figure's true identity, they trusted Izuna implicitly.

Kaido began placing Flying Thunder God seals around the Uchiha troops, preparing for the mass teleportation. Meanwhile, Uchiha Soren whispered to Izuna, "Deputy Chief, is this masked man trustworthy?"

"If he steps out of line, I'll kill him myself," Izuna replied calmly, his tone leaving no room for doubt.

The younger Uchiha looked at Izuna with admiration. His unwavering confidence and authority inspired loyalty among the clan.

Once the seals were in place, Kaido announced, "Prepare to move."

Moments later, the Uchiha ninjas experienced the same disorienting sensation that had stunned the Kaguya. In the blink of an eye, they found themselves in a dense forest near Uzushio Village.

"This technique… it's beyond anything I've ever seen," one of the Uchiha whispered in awe.

Kaido's clone nodded. "Our collaboration is complete," he said, before disappearing without further explanation.

The Uchiha ninjas were left to wonder about the identity of the mysterious masked man.

Not long after, a bright flare shot into the sky, exploding in a pattern that displayed the Kaguya clan's emblem.

Izuna smirked faintly. Standing at the forefront of the Uchiha formation, his expression was unreadable to those behind him.

"Deputy Chief?" Uchiha jonin asked cautiously.

"Nothing," Izuna replied curtly.

At that moment, five red-haired Uzumaki ninjas appeared, clearly startled to see the Uchiha so close to their village.

"Uchiha Izuna?! What are you doing here?!"

"How did they get past our defenses?!"

"This close to the village… what are the guards even doing?!"

The Uzumaki ninjas were in a panic, fearing the worst.

Izuna raised a hand, his voice calm but commanding. "There's no need for alarm. I'm here for a joyous occasion."

The Uzumaki stared at him, confused.

"A joyous occasion?" the leader of the Uzumaki group asked warily.

Izuna motioned for a group of Uchiha chūnin to step forward, carrying several large iron boxes.

"Yes," Izuna said with a faint smile. "I've come to formally propose marriage to Princess Mito Uzumaki."
