"Um?"

" From the Hyuga Clan?"

Looking at the ninja in front of him, Uchiha Yue immediately recognized him, all because of the ninja's eyes, which looked like they had cataracts.

However, Uchiha Yue was unsure why the other party wanted to speak to him. After all, the Hyuga Clan had begun to challenge the Uchiha Clan's prestigious status, and the two clans were practically at odds. So, just as the Hyuga Clan ninja finished speaking, Uchiha Yue glanced at him indifferently and said, "I am Uchiha Yue. What is it?"

"Hehe, it's nothing."

After receiving Uchiha Yue's reply, the Hyuga Clan ninja smiled slightly and then returned to his team's assembly point.

However, just as Uchiha Yue was watching the Hyuga Clan ninja leave with great interest, Minato Namikaze suddenly appeared beside him and called out to the departing Uchiha Yue Hyuga Clan ninja, saying familiarly, "Hiashi, are you also leading a team on a mission today? I've heard lately that you've been leading your team on missions like crazy. Be careful, don't overwork yourself!"

"Hyuga Hiashi?"

As soon as Minato Namikaze finished speaking, Uchiha Yue's gaze became even more fixed on the Hyuga Clan ninja from before.

Even Uchiha Yue never expected that the Hyuga Clan ninja who had spoken to him earlier would become the future head of the Hyuga Clan, Hyuga Hiashi!

Then, after hearing Minato Namikaze's words, Hyuga Hiashi stopped and turned to look at Minato Namikaze, saying, "Minato, I think you're talking about Kushina, right? Even though our team is pretty crazy when it comes to missions, we're not as crazy as Kushina! She took on eight missions at once and completed them in just a month and a half! Minato, your team is famous throughout the whole village now!"

"Haha, you know Kushina's personality."

Upon hearing Hyuga Hiashi mention this place, Minato Namikaze went over and began chatting with Hyuga Hiashi Minato Namikaze Minato Namikaze Hyuga Hiashi were talking, Uchiha Yue became quite interested in Hyuga Hiashi's Hyuga Hiashi. Because, as Uchiha Yue's gaze fell upon the area where Hyuga Hiashi's team was gathered, he suddenly realized that all the members of Hyuga Hiashi's team were actually Hyuga Clan ninjas!

Clearly, in order to rival the powerful Uchiha Clan, the Hyuga Clan has begun to suppress the Uchiha Clan in various ways. It's important to understand that the Uchiha Clan's main body of control is the Police Force, whose job is to protect the safety of Konoha. Therefore, most of the clan's elite members are concentrated in Konoha. As a result, unless there is a war outside, the Uchiha Clan elites inevitably fade into obscurity and are eventually forgotten by the villagers of Konoha.

Therefore, taking advantage of the Uchiha Clan's relative inactivity, the Hyuga Clan began dispatching its elite forces to complete numerous missions assigned to Konoha. Gradually, as the number of missions completed by the Hyuga Clan elite Hyuga teams increased, the Hyuga Clan's reputation in Konoha naturally grew significantly, perhaps even becoming etched in the minds of all Konoha villagers as a symbol of the Hyuga Clan power. In this way, wouldn't the Hyuga Clan's reputation in Konoha eventually surpass that of the Uchiha Clan?

The team facing Uchiha Yue was undoubtedly the elite team of the Hyuga Clan.

Just by looking at the fact that the captain of this team is Hyuga Hiashi, it's clear that the Hyuga Clan is putting a lot of effort into training this team, since Hyuga Hiashi is a strong candidate for the next clan leader. Therefore, after Uchiha Yue learned that this Hyuga Clan team was elite, his attention was constantly focused on the members of this team. Moreover, what surprised Uchiha Yue somewhat was that the members of this elite Hyuga Clan team were all about the same age as him, which explains why Hyuga Hiashi had been paying so much attention to Uchiha Yue.

This elite Hyuga Clan team, aside from the renowned Hyuga Hiashi Jonin, consisted of three members dressed in Chunin uniforms, presumably the Hyuga Clan's new generation of elites who had just passed the Chunin Ninja Exams this year. However, what amused Uchiha Yue somewhat was that, besides Hyuga Hiashi, two of the team members were girls, prompting him to inwardly remark that the Uchiha Yue Hyuga Clan seemed to have a rather imbalanced gender ratio!

Later, while Minato Namikaze and Hyuga Hiashi were talking, Uchiha Yue was eavesdropping on their conversation. He then learned the information about the three new Hyuga Clan. In Hyuga Hiashi 'Uchiha Yue team, a boy around twelve or thirteen years old was named Hyuga Yexing, and another female ninja around eleven or twelve years old was named Hyuga Xiyun. Both were renowned talents of the Hyuga Clan, having become Chunin in their teens, demonstrating astonishing potential.

What interested Uchiha Yue even more was the remaining female Hyuga Clan ninja.

The female Hyuga Clan ninja, who appeared to be only three or four years older than Uchiha Yue, had also passed the Chunin Ninja Exams and become Chunin of Konoha. Moreover, this female Hyuga Clan ninja was actually the older sister of Hyuga Anihiko's Uchiha Yue rival, Hyuga Yasuhiko, and was named Hyuga Anya. Therefore, while Uchiha Yue was observing this Hyuga Clan named Hyuga Anya was also paying attention to Uchiha Yue. Furthermore, Uchiha Yue could clearly see a hint of provocation in Hyuga Anya's eyes.

"Interesting!"

Seeing the slightly provocative look in Hyuga Anya's eyes, Uchiha Yue couldn't help but smile faintly, his eyes blazing with intense fighting spirit. It's important to know that Uchiha Yue had accepted a secret mission within the clan: to suppress the new generation of the Hyuga Clan ninjas. Therefore, this Hyuga Anya Hyuga Clan ninja named Uchiha Yue was clearly one of Uchiha Yue's future targets, and he was eagerly anticipating clashing with her.

Moreover, given his young age and ability to become Chunin Konoha, Uchiha Yue considered Hyuga Anya a formidable rival. Furthermore, back in the Ninja Academy, Uchiha Yue had consistently suppressed Hyuga Anya's younger brother Hyuga Anihiko. Therefore, in Uchiha Yue's view, even if he didn't go looking for trouble with Hyuga Anya would probably go looking for trouble with him.

As Uchiha Yue had predicted, just as he was observing Hyuga Anya with interest, a faint smile appeared on Hyuga Anya face in the distance, and she walked towards him. However, in Hyuga Anya's eyes, Uchiha Yue clearly see a hint of disdain. Then, after Hyuga Anya Uchiha Yue, he heard Hyuga Anya say in a very calm tone, "You are Uchiha Yue the Uchiha Clan?"

"You seem no different from any other ghost to me!"
