Uzushiogakure (渦潮隠れの里, Uzushiogakure no Sato, English TV: Hidden Eddy Village, Literally meaning: Village Hidden by Whirling Tides) was the shinobi village of the Land of Whirlpools. Its ninjas were renowned for their fūinjutsu to the point that it led to its destruction, sparking the bloody Second Shinobi World War.[1] Those who survived Uzu’s destruction secretly rebuilt the village underground and its current leader being Tajima Uzumaki New Uzushiogakure (新渦潮隠れの里, Shin Uzushiogakure, English TV: New Hidden, Literally meaning: New Village Hidden by Whirling Tides).
The ninja of Uzushiogakure were famed for their fūinjutsu; the Four Symbols Seal is based on the village’s techniques. In times of war, the power of the village’s fūinjutsu earned fear from many, ultimately leading to it being targeted and subsequently destroyed by other villages[2] at some point following emigration of Kushina Uzumaki, Toshirō Shunsoku, Mina, Mai Uzumaki, and Karin Uzumaki from the village.
Uzushiogakure had close ties with Konohagakure, due to Uzushio’s Uzumaki clan and Konoha’s Senju clan being distant blood relatives. Because of this, all flak jackets of Konohagakure bear the crest of Uzushiogakure, symbolizing the strong friendship between both villages.[3] In Otogakure, its official attire also includes a symbol of Uzushiogakure.[4]
