Gazing at Uchiha Yue's retreating figure, Mei Terumi suddenly felt that Uchiha Yue in front of her was unfathomable.

Nakatani Kenshin, Sawaguchi Mitsuhide, Mo Chenfeng were all elites of the new generation from Kumogakure, yet they were all defeated by Uchiha Yue, making Mei Terumi realize that Uchiha Yue was incredibly strong. However, what shocked Mei Terumi even more was that Uchiha Yue actually defeated three more ninjas from Sunagakure without using any chakra, and in just three minutes!

Such strength is beyond Mei Terumi's comprehension!

Therefore, when Mei Terumi stared blankly at Uchiha Yue's retreating figure, she had only one thought in her mind.

That is, can Uchiha Yue really be defeated?

However, Uchiha Yue did not feel excited about killing the three Sunagakure ninja in front of him. As early as when Uchiha Yue used his Purple Eye to perceive the three Sunagakure ninja, he was able to sense their strength level. Therefore, Uchiha Yue had already calculated in his mind whether he could defeat the three Sunagakure ninja in his current state.

Therefore, Uchiha Yue was confident that he could kill those Sunagakure ninjas within three minutes, but Mei Terumi never believed him.

Now that all the enemies in front of him had been dealt with, Uchiha Yue could finally relax a bit.

However, before relaxing, Uchiha Yue decided to check out the spoils he could acquire!

There was no need to bother with the three Sunagakure ninjas; their strength wasn't particularly impressive to begin with. Uchiha Yue only took some supplies from their ninja tool bags and the Yang Scroll they carried. Afterward, Uchiha Yue went to the corpses of Nakatani Kenshin and Sawaguchi Mitsuhide to see if he could obtain the combined attack technique they possessed.

Unfortunately, neither Nakatani Kenshin nor Sawaguchi Mitsuhide had anything in their ninja tool pouches that Uchiha Yue needed. In fact, even the mission items for Nakatani Kenshin and Sawaguchi Mitsuhide were in the hands of the strongest Mo Chenfeng. Therefore, Uchiha Yue could only hope that Mo Chenfeng's ninja tool pouch would contain something worth collecting.

The quest item held by Mo Chenfeng's team is also the Yin Scroll.

The moment he saw the Yin Scroll, Uchiha Yue sighed helplessly and then destroyed Yin Scroll.

At this stage, Uchiha Yue has too many mission scrolls; enough to complete the second round of both Chunin Ninja Exams. In fact, if Uchiha Yue wanted, he could directly help Mei Terumi complete the exam. Unfortunately, Uchiha Yue isn't a philanthropist, and naturally, he wouldn't hand over the Yang Scroll he just acquired to Mei Terumi.

Immediately afterwards...

Uchiha Yue eagerly searched Mo Chenfeng's ninja tool pouch, hoping to find something useful. And, as expected, she wasn't disappointed; Mo Chenfeng Uchiha Yue's pouch contained two ninjutsu scrolls. So, the moment Uchiha Yue Mo Chenfeng the two Uchiha Yue, she couldn't help but secretly sigh inwardly:

"Mo Chenfeng, you're really great!"

Thinking this, Uchiha Yue took the ninjutsu scrolls from Mo Chenfeng's ninja tool pouch and put them into his own. Then, Uchiha Yue decided to return to the cave to rest. After all, Uchiha Yue's spiritual energy and chakra were somewhat depleted; if any stronger enemies came, he wouldn't be able to handle them at all. Therefore, Uchiha Yue ignored Mei Terumi in front of the cave and went straight into the cave to begin recovering.

After Uchiha Yue used the Uzumaki Clan Secret Technique to restore his spiritual energy and chakra, he began using Medical Ninjutsu to heal his wounds. It took a full half hour; aside from a slight mental fatigue, all of Uchiha Yue's injuries had healed. Now, Uchiha Yue finally had time to examine the ninjutsu scrolls in Mo Chenfeng's ninja tool pouch and see what they contained.

However, just as Uchiha Yue opened the first ninjutsu scroll, his expression turned rather grim.

Because the ninjutsu scroll in front of Uchiha Yue contained entirely his own information and intelligence. It even included Uchiha Yue's daily routine, which made Uchiha Yue's expression darken. The fact that Mo Chenfeng possessed such detailed information meant that there was a spy among Uchiha Yue's entourage.

Of course, the possibility that Uchiha Yue had spies from Kumogakure) around him is just one possibility.

Another possibility is that Konoha had spies planted around Uchiha Yue, leading the Konoha's higher-ups to sell his information to other ninja villages for personal gain. If this second scenario is true, then Uchiha Yue been completely betrayed by Konoha. Afterward, Uchiha Yue carefully put the intelligence scroll away, preparing to ask Tsunade about the truth when he had the chance, to see if Konoha had indeed betrayed him.

Uchiha Yue's mood soured as soon as he opened the first ninjutsu scroll.

Then, Uchiha Yue took a deep breath, preparing to see what was recorded on the second ninjutsu scroll in Mo Chenfeng's hand.

"Ha..."

"Mo Chenfeng, you really didn't disappoint me!"

As he perused the contents of the second ninjutsu scroll, a look of joy flashed in Uchiha Yue's eyes, whose expression had previously been somewhat gloomy.

Because the second ninjutsu scroll in Mo Chenfeng's possession was exactly what Uchiha Yue needed most.

Perhaps due to Mo Chenfeng 'Mo Chenfeng exceptional skill and daring, he never considered the possibility of being killed by someone else. Therefore, the second ninjutsu scroll in Mo Chenfeng's possession contained the secret techniques of the Yagami Clan, specifically the Basic Shatter Step technique that Uchiha Yue desperately wanted. However, Uchiha Yue would still need to spend some time fully deciphering the Yagami Clan's secret techniques. After all, the Yagami Clan's method of recording secret techniques was very unique; Uchiha Yue needed to study the Yagami Clan's method of recording secret techniques to fully understand their mysteries.

However, such a gain was enough to make Uchiha Yue happy.

Even Sarutobi Danzō, who was standing next to Uchiha Yue, was very curious about why Uchiha Yue was so happy. However, Hatake Kakashi suddenly woke up, interrupting Sarutobi Danzō's question. Then, Uchiha Yue turned his head slightly, looked at Hatake Kakashi in front of him, and asked with a smile, "Kakashi, how is your recovery?"
