The Follow-Up Move

"Minato, are your injuries alright?"

Appearing before Uchiha Yue and the others, Hyuga Hiashi anxious, his expression filled with worry, which seemed genuine.

However, when Uchiha Yue saw Hyuga Hiashi's incredibly realistic acting, he only sneered silently in his heart. Dragging his heavily injured body, he prepared to find Tsunade to treat him. Previously, Uchiha Yue and the others were affected by the Wind Release: Shuriken Technique. It seemed that the Ino-Shika-Cho trio suffered the most serious injuries, but Uchiha Yue and Minato Namikaze's injuries were also very serious.

Because Uchiha Yue and Minato Namikaze were the ones who unleashed the Wind Release: Shuriken technique, their arms were severely injured at the moment the Shuriken exploded. In fact, if Uchiha Yue n't possessed the formidable physique of the Minato Namikaze Uzumaki Clan, his right hand might have been rendered useless the instant Wind Release: Shuriken technique Uchiha Yue.

After all, Uzumaki Naruto suffered severe aftereffects when he first used the Wind Release: Shuriken in the original story. Naturally, Uchiha Yue, the second to use the Wind Release: Shuriken, experienced the same situation. On the surface, Minato Namikaze's injuries didn't seem very serious, but Uchiha Yue, Minato Namikaze his Purple Eye, could see that the muscles in both of Minato Namikaze's arms were completely torn, requiring at least several months of rest for full recovery.

Therefore, Uchiha Yue decided to go to Tsunade so that Tsunade could treat his and Minato Namikaze's arms.

As for the injuries of Kushina Uzumaki, Hizashi Hyuga, and the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, they can simply be left to other medical ninjas. After all, Kushina Uzumaki and the others' injuries are only external, and once healed, they shouldn't leave any lasting effects. However, Uchiha Yue Minato Namikaze have hidden ailments in their arms. If the treatment isn't thorough enough, their Minato Namikaze ninja paths will become much more difficult.

Unfortunately, even though Uchiha Yue didn't intend to pay attention to Hyuga Hiashi, Minato Namikaze and the others couldn't completely ignore Hyuga Hiashi in front of them.

Moreover, Shikaku Nara, with his exceptional intelligence, was also able to guess Hyuga Hiashi's previously devised scheme. However, lacking sufficient evidence, Shikaku Nara had no way to accuse Hyuga Hiashi. Therefore, as soon as Hyuga Hiashi finished speaking, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio remained silent, allowing Minato Namikaze, the team leader, to go and meet Hyuga Hiashi.

Then, upon hearing Hyuga Hiashi's question, Minato Namikaze's lips curled into a bitter smile. He then slowly said to Hyuga Hiashi, "I'm sorry, Hiashi, we couldn't rescue your clansmen. The enemy ninjas had already killed them all by the time we went to help them. As for our injuries, they are not a problem at all. We are now going to Lady Tsunade's place to await the medical Lady Tsunade under her command to heal us."

"Minato, there's no need for all that trouble!"

As soon as Minato Namikaze finished speaking, Hyuga Hiashi's worry deepened. He said, "You were seriously injured while rescuing my Hyuga Clan members. How can I abandon you? Minato, I'll arrange a place for you to recuperate right now. You just need to wait patiently there! I'll immediately send someone to inform Lady Tsunade's medical ninja unit to come and treat your injuries!"

Without giving Minato Namikaze a chance to refuse, Hyuga Hiashi notified the elite Hyuga Clan to seek help from the medical ninja squad.

Subsequently, after Hyuga Hiashi sent someone to request assistance from the medical ninja unit, he indeed arranged a quiet place for Uchiha Yue and the others to recuperate. However, when Uchiha Yue and the others went to recuperate, Uchiha Yue discovered that the places Hyuga Hiashi had arranged for them were all separate. Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki were in one room, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio was in another room, and Uchiha Yue and Hizashi Hyuga each had their own separate room.

Upon noticing Hyuga Hiashi's room assignments, Uchiha Yue frowned slightly, wondering if Hyuga Hiashi was plotting something.

However, with Uchiha Yue and the others currently in Konoha, he didn't believe that Uchiha Yue Hyuga Hiashi send someone to assassinate him.

After all, so many people saw Uchiha Yue and the others go to recuperate with Hyuga Hiashi. If something happened to Uchiha Yue, Hyuga Hiashi would definitely find it difficult to shirk responsibility.

In the quiet room, Uchiha Yue took a deep breath and prepared to use his Purple Eye to examine his injuries.

After examining his injuries, Uchiha Yue found that apart from the more serious injuries to his arms, the rest were all external wounds that could heal quickly. However, even Uchiha Yue found the injuries to his arms troublesome. Right now, Uchiha Yue could only hope that Tsunade's Medical Ninjutsu would perfectly heal his arms without leaving any lasting effects.

Only...

Just as Uchiha Yue had finished checking his injuries, his room door was suddenly pushed open.

Immediately afterwards...

Uchiha Yue looked up and saw Hyuga Hiashi appear in front of him.

"Mr. Hiashi, is something the matter?"

Staring intently at Hyuga Hiashi in front of him, Uchiha Yue raised his eyebrows slightly and asked coldly.

In contrast, Hyuga Hiashi completely ignored Uchiha Yue's cold attitude, kneeling directly before Uchiha Yue and smiling, "Tsuki-kun, I admit I underestimated you. I never expected you to be able to escape with Minato and the others. I saw the ninjutsu you and Minato used when you broke through the encirclement. I must say, the power of the Minato you and Minato used together was truly beyond my imagination. I wonder if you, Tsuki-kun, would be so kind as to share the ninjutsu you and Minato used with me?"

"Mr. Hiashi, you are truly shameless!"

As soon as Hyuga Hiashi finished speaking, Uchiha Yue showed him no mercy, coldly saying, "The ninjutsu that Hyuga Hiashi and I just used was developed by Minato, and has nothing to do with me. So, Mr. Hiashi, if you want to learn how to use that ninjutsu, you'll have to discuss it with Minato! I need to heal my injuries right now, so please excuse me for not being able to treat you!"

"Mr. Hiashi, please!"

"Hehe, Moon Lord, why are you in such a hurry to get rid of me?"

When Uchiha Yue arrived, Hyuga Hiashi still wore that repulsive smile, and slowly said to Uchiha Yue in front of him, "Tsuki-kun, don't you want to know what my purpose is? Actually, you can already guess my purpose, right? It's just that you don't want to admit what I'm here for, do you?"

At that moment, the smile on Hyuga Hiashi's lips suddenly deepened.

Immediately, just as Uchiha Yue narrowed his eyes slightly, intently gazing at Hyuga Hiashi before him...

A sudden glint of killing intent flashed in Hyuga Hiashi's eyes as he said calmly, "Moon Lord, you probably didn't expect I had a backup plan, did you?"
