When the Uzumaki and Uchiha clans are mentioned in the Naruto and Boruto anime, people may think they are rivals. However, these two clans have come together in various moments of teamwork, despite their tragic histories of near extinction. Here are some of the most iconic collaboration moments between the Uzumaki and Uchiha clans in the anime:

Sasuke and Karin worked together when Sasuke recruited her to join his team, Hebi. Karin’s sensing abilities and her ability to provide chakra to Sasuke were vital to the team.
3. Nagato and Itachi’s team
During the Fourth Great Ninja War, Nagato and Itachi were brought back to life by Edo Tensei to capture the remaining Jinchuuriki.
