Shimura Danzō

"Yue, are you going back to cultivate?"

After being promoted to Chunin, Hatake Kakashi's eyes were filled with joy. Clearly, becoming Chunin made even the usually arrogant Hatake Kakashi feel a surge of pride. However, just as Hatake Kakashi Chunin Konoha, his gaze shifted to Uchiha Yue, as if asking why he wasn't wearing the Chunin Konoha.

Upon hearing Hatake Kakashi's question, Uchiha Yue's gaze involuntarily fell upon the clothes in his hands, and his eyes twitched violently several times. Uchiha Yue truly couldn't understand what the person who designed the Konoha Chunin was thinking. Aside from the fact that the Konoha Chunin was extremely strange, the turtle-green vests that the Konoha Chunin to wear were simply unacceptable to Uchiha Yue.

So, not long after Hatake Kakashi finished speaking, Uchiha Yue asked helplessly, "Kakashi, do you think this outfit looks good?"

"Certainly!"

Hearing Uchiha Yue's words, Hatake Kakashi replied matter-of-factly, "Our village 'Chunin uniforms are the best-looking of all the ninja villages. Moreover, wearing the Chunin uniform not only symbolizes that we are Chunin Konoha, but also represents the honor we possess! Yue, in this Chunin Ninja Exams, only you and I, Sasori of the Red Sands from Sunagakure, and Mei Terumi from Kirigakure have Mei Terumi the spots to become Chunin. Don't you feel that's an honor?"

"Honor? I really didn't feel it!"

Hearing this, Uchiha Yue shrugged helplessly and then said, "Kakashi, we advanced to Chunin based on our own strength, so Chunin's only natural that we did! Besides, our village's uniforms are just too ugly! Just looking at these uniforms, I'm already thinking of running for Anbu! Look at the uniforms those Anbu wear, they're so cool!"

"Moon, your taste is really questionable."

When Uchiha Yue arrived, Hatake Kakashi actually curled his lip and put on his Konoha Chunin uniform.

What Uchiha Yue found most unbearable was that when Hatake Kakashi said those words, he actually gave him a disdainful look.

This is truly something that even an uncle can tolerate, but an aunt cannot!

However, Uchiha Yue didn't argue with Hatake Kakashi about which uniform looked better. Soon after Hatake Kakashi on his Chunin uniform, Uchiha Yue prepared to leave with him. Afterwards, Uchiha Yue would return to Tsunade's residence to train, preparing to complete the Anbu training program as soon as possible. Hatake Kakashi also needed to complete his training; he was now eager to gain greater strength and surpass Uchiha Yue as soon as possible.

However, Uchiha Yue never expected that just as he was about to leave, several Uchiha Yue Anbu suddenly appeared in front of him.

Moreover, the Anbu who appeared before Uchiha Yue were dressed differently from ordinary Anbu, causing Uchiha Yue to frown slightly.

Then, the Anbu looked at Uchiha Yue in front of them, glanced at Hatake Kakashi beside him, and said in an icy tone, "Uchiha Yue, Danzo requests your presence!"

"Danzo?"

Upon suddenly hearing the name Shimura Danzō, Uchiha Yue narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression filled with solemnity.

Hatake Kakashi, however, remained completely expressionless. After all, Shimura Danzō was an elder of Konoha, and in Hatake Kakashi's view, there was no problem with him summoning Uchiha Yue. Then, the Anbu did not give Uchiha Yue chance to refuse before letting him bid farewell to Hatake Kakashi and follow them to see Shimura Danzō.

As Uchiha Yue accompanied the Anbu to meet Shimura Danzō, he was quite uneasy the whole way. After all, Shimura Danzō had never been fond of the Uchiha Clan ninjas. Moreover, Uchiha Yue already knew that Shimura Danzō intended to deal with him, so now that he was about to meet Shimura Danzō in person, even someone like Uchiha Yue couldn't help but feel nervous and pressured.

Because Shimura Danzō's office was also located in the Hokage Office, Uchiha Yue followed the Anbu and quickly arrived at Shimura Danzō's office. Upon seeing Uchiha Yue, whose Anbu was wrapped in bandages, dismissed the Shimura Danzō. After Anbu had all left, Uchiha Yue noticed a faint smile on Shimura Danzō's face.

Immediately, Shimura Danzō smiled and looked at Uchiha Yue in front of him, saying, "Uchiha Yue, is that so?"

"Yes, Danzo."

Upon hearing Shimura Danzō's words, Uchiha Yue replied respectfully, displaying impeccable manners.

However, just as Uchiha Yue finished speaking, Shimura Danzō slowly stood up, walked up to Uchiha Yue, and said, "Uchiha Yue, you are the youngest Chunin in our village, and your future is limitless. I heard you want to run for Anbu to serve our village, and that's a good idea. So, before you run for Anbu, I'm going to give you a task. If you can do it well, I guarantee you'll be able to complete the Anbu election. What do you say?"

"Danzo, what is the mission?"

When Uchiha Yue first met Shimura Danzō, he may have felt a little nervous. However, once Shimura Danzō Uchiha Yue, he showed no signs of Uchiha Yue whatsoever and Shimura Danzō remarkably Uchiha Yue more.

Immediately afterwards...

Shimura Danzō's smile actually grew even wider.

This made Uchiha Yue feel that the Shimura Danzō in the original story was a completely different person from the Shimura Danzō in front of him.

After all, in the original story, Shimura Danzō was a stern and brooding character!

Then, with a smile, Shimura Danzō reached out and patted Uchiha Yue on the shoulder, saying, "Uchiha Yue, the task I'm giving you is very simple: to secretly monitor the Hyuga Clan's intelligence. As a member of the Uchiha Clan, you probably don't want to see the Hyuga Clan truly rise to become a powerful clan in the village, right? Therefore, I feel this task is most suitable for you. Do you think you can handle it?"

"Yes, no problem."

In the face of the old fox Shimura Danzō, the less Uchiha Yue said, the more control he could maintain.

Therefore, Uchiha Yue simply gave a brief reply and prepared to leave.

But to everyone's surprise, Shimura Danzō remained silent, and just as Uchiha Yue was about to leave, Shimura Danzō's voice reached Uchiha Yue's ears.

"Uchiha Yue, I now possess some crucial intelligence regarding the current head of the Hyuga Clan, Hyuga Hiashi, colluding with other ninja villages. Therefore, I hope you can gather as much information as possible about the Hyuga Clan. If I have enough information, I will help your Uchiha Clan overthrow the Hyuga Clan, what do you say?"
