"Fugaku- kun?"

Upon suddenly seeing Uchiha Fugaku arrive, Uchiha Yue was slightly surprised, but quickly understood Uchiha Fugaku's purpose: the upcoming Chunin Ninja Exams. Just as Uchiha Yue had predicted, Uchiha Fugaku's visit was indeed for the Chunin Ninja Exams.

However, Uchiha Fugaku's purpose was different from Hatake Kakashi's; he came with important intelligence.

However, when Uchiha Fugaku saw Hatake Kakashi next to Uchiha Yue clearly noticed that Uchiha Fugaku's brows furrowed slightly. However, people like Uchiha Fugaku are very good at hiding their emotions. Therefore, if Uchiha Yue hadn't had extremely strong insight, he might not have been aware at all that Uchiha Fugaku harbored hostility towards Hatake Kakashi.

Then, when Uchiha Fugaku arrived in front of Uchiha Yue and Hatake Kakashi, Uchiha Fugaku, with his signature smile, said, "Tsuki-kun, I never expected to see you and Kakashi- kun together. You must be discussing the Chunin Ninja Exams, right? Please forgive my intrusion, but I've obtained some important information about the Chunin Ninja Exams, so I've come to inform you."

"Oh? Information about the Chunin Ninja Exams?"

At this moment, Hatake Kakashi was completely unaware of Uchiha Fugaku's malice. Because Hatake Kakashi was so focused on the Chunin Ninja Exams, he didn't hesitate at all and directly asked, "Moon, if we can obtain more information about the Hatake Kakashi Chunin Ninja Exams, it will help us pass Chunin Ninja Exams. Now, let's listen to what information Fugaku has to share!"

"Okay, sure."

Clearly, Uchiha Yue knew Uchiha Fugaku's intentions and that Uchiha Fugaku had something private to discuss with him and didn't want Hatake Kakashi present. However, because Hatake Kakashi was Uchiha Yue's friend, he couldn't refuse him at this moment. Moreover, even if Hatake Kakashi were there, Uchiha Yue could still have a private conversation with Uchiha Fugaku later, without affecting their cooperation.

At this moment, it was Uchiha Fugaku was somewhat dissatisfied with Hatake Kakashi's attitude. After all, he was about to become the head of the Uchiha Clan, and seeing that Hatake Kakashi was not leaving on his own initiative, he inevitably felt some resentment. However, in front of Uchiha Yue, Uchiha Fugaku also couldn't cause trouble for Hatake Kakashi.

Then, after taking a deep breath, Uchiha Fugaku took out the information scroll he was holding and placed it in front of Uchiha Yue, smiling slightly. "Tsukuyomi-kun, you and Kakashi- kun must be worried about the third member of your team, right? Actually, I've already received news about the Third Hokage's plan to send a third member to your team. I heard that the Third Hokage is preparing to send Sarutobi Clan to participate in the Genin Chunin Ninja Exams with you and Kakashi- kun, so Tsukuyomi-kun, Kakashi- kun, you don't need to worry about the third member at all."

"A ninja from the Sarutobi Clan? I knew it!"

Hearing Uchiha Fugaku's words, Uchiha Yue shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself that the Third Hokage did indeed have his own selfish motives.

It's important to understand that participating in the Chunin Ninja Exams alongside Uchiha Yue and Hatake Kakashi almost guarantees a spot in the Chunin rank. After all, given Uchiha Yue and Hatake Kakashi's strength, they're sure to lead their teammates to the finals. Therefore, if the Third Hokage's chosen Genin possesses sufficient strength, they're guaranteed a spot in the Chunin rank.

Furthermore, don't forget that this year 'Chunin Ninja Exams are hosted by Konoha. Therefore, as long as Konoha participant has the ability to reach the finals, the Konoha referees and the Third Hokage will definitely go easy on them, designating Konoha Genin reaches the finals to advance to Chunin. As for ninjas from other villages, they will need to gain the favor of the Third Hokage during the Chunin Ninja Exams. This is the home advantage that Konoha has Chunin Ninja Exams.

However, since it was Sarutobi Clan ninja designated by the Third Hokage, Uchiha Yue believed that the Sarutobi Clan ninja must possess considerable strength. In Uchiha Yue's speculation, this Sarutobi Clan ninja was very likely a relative of the Third Hokage. After all, according to Uchiha Yue's calculations, Sarutobi Asuma's older brother, who was also Konohamaru's father in the original story, was currently Genin of the Sarutobi Clan. Therefore, this Sarutobi Clan ninja was very likely the Third Hokage's eldest son!

Thinking this to himself, Uchiha Yue shook his head helplessly and turned to read the intelligence scroll that Uchiha Fugaku had given him.

At the same time, Hatake Kakashi arrived beside Uchiha Yue and began reading the scroll in Uchiha Yue's hands without any hesitation. However, Hatake Kakashi's actions only worsened Uchiha Fugaku's impression of him. In fact, if Hatake Kakashi weren't Uchiha Yue's friend and teammate, Uchiha Fugaku would definitely have secretly used some means to eliminate such Hatake Kakashi.

The Hatake Clan, to which Hatake Kakashi belongs, still holds some prestige in Konoha, but that prestige comes from the time of Sakumo Konoha's White Fang. A powerful Uchiha Clan would never even consider the Hatake Clan a threat. Therefore, if Uchiha Fugaku intended to toy with Hatake Kakashi, he'd have a thousand ways to do so, but that would be a sham.

However, Uchiha Fugaku knew he had to remain calm and not harbor too much ill will towards Hatake Kakashi.

After all, if Uchiha Fugaku wanted to become the clan leader, he would have to rely heavily on Uchiha Yue in front of him.

Immediately afterwards...

After Uchiha Yue finished reading the intelligence scroll in front of him, Uchiha Fugaku noticed his eyes narrow slightly. Then, Uchiha Yue took a vermilion brush and deliberately marked several names on the intelligence scroll. When Uchiha Fugaku saw those names that Uchiha Yue had specially marked, a faint smile involuntarily appeared on the corner of Uchiha Fugaku's mouth.

Then, when Uchiha Yue finished marking everything, Uchiha Fugaku couldn't help but clap his hands and smile, "Tsuki-kun, it seems I underestimated you. I never expected that before I even told you which ninjas to pay attention to, you could mark all their names. Truly worthy of being called Tsuki-kun!"

Then, Uchiha Fugaku turned his gaze to the intelligence scroll in front of him, and said rather seriously, "However, Tsuki-kun, there are some ninjas that need attention that you haven't marked yet, so let me help you add them!"
