Upon hearing Shimura Danzō's voice, Uchiha Yue's first thought was that Uchiha Clan to restrain the rapidly growing Hyuga Clan. This was because, currently, the only force within Konoha Shimura Danzō of restraining the Hyuga Clan was the Uchiha Clan. After all, as a member of the Konoha Council of Elders, Shimura Danzō could not use his authority to limit the Hyuga Clan's development.

Clearly, Shimura Danzō is currently planning to use Uchiha Yue 'Uchiha Yue Uchiha Clan Shimura Danzō him to restrain the Hyuga Clan's development, rather than genuinely seeking Uchiha Yue's assistance. If Uchiha Yue didn't have the Uchiha Clan behind him, why would Uchiha Yue personally approach him for a talk?

Therefore, when Uchiha Yue saw through Shimura Danzō's intentions, he replied without hesitation, "Danzo, I can only do my best to gather information about the Hyuga Clan. As for the conflicts between clans, I cannot get involved. I promised my master that I would not participate in the conflicts between clans, please understand."

"Okay, I understand."

Upon hearing Uchiha Yue's words, Shimura Danzō slowly wiped the smile from his face and said, "In that case, Uchiha Yue, you just need to complete the task I assigned to you."

After a pause, Shimura Danzō said, "Alright, if there's nothing else, you can leave."

"Yes, Danzo."

Just as Shimura Danzō arrived, Uchiha Yue nodded in response, thinking to himself that he could finally go back.

However, on the way to Tsunade's residence, Uchiha Yue was still thinking about the Hyuga Clan.

Since Shimura Danzō is preparing to suppress the Hyuga Clan, it proves that the Hyuga Clan truly possesses the strength to rival the Uchiha Clan!

Originally, the rise of the Hyuga Clan had nothing to do with Uchiha Yue, and even if the Uchiha Clan Uchiha Yue its former glory, it wouldn't have affected him. However, because of Hyuga Hiashi, Uchiha Yue felt he had to do something to help the Uchiha Clan Hyuga Clan. Now, Shimura Danzō had contacted Uchiha Yue, which conveniently provided him with a perfect opportunity.

Then, before heading to Tsunade's residence, Uchiha Yue returned to the Uchiha Clan's address.

There, Uchiha Yue met with the current head of the Uchiha Clan, who was also Uchiha Yue's partner, Uchiha Fugaku.

"Moon Lord, I'm so happy to see you come to visit me!"

In just a few days, Uchiha Fugaku looked much more haggard, clearly indicating that the internal strife within the Uchiha Clan was extremely serious, leaving him little time to rest. However, there was no need for Uchiha Yue Uchiha Fugaku worry about Uchiha Fugaku's health. In the original story, Uchiha Fugaku's ability to live until the Uchiha Clan's annihilation proves that he couldn't be crushed by the affairs of the Uchiha Clan and would only die tragically due to his own ambition.

Even after hearing what Uchiha Yue Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Yue still didn't give Uchiha Fugaku a friendly look.

Immediately, Uchiha Yue took a deep breath and said to Uchiha Fugaku in front of him, "Fugaku- kun, I'm here to ask you when you'll be able to deliver the things you promised me."

"Moon Lord, I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting."

Just as Uchiha Yue finished speaking, a slight smile appeared on Uchiha Fugaku's lips. Undoubtedly, Uchiha Fugaku Uchiha Yue had come to him seeking benefits, he still had grounds for cooperation. Then, Uchiha Fugaku ordered someone to bring a box and placed it directly in front of Uchiha Yue, saying, "Yuki-kun, this is your ancestor's relic, the Uchiha Yue Flame Fan. As for the Book of Seals you require, please give me some more time; I will definitely deliver it to you soon!"

"Um."

Putting away the box in front of him, Uchiha Yue nodded slightly and then said, "Fugaku- kun, do you know why I came to find you?"

"The Hyuga Clan!"

As soon as Uchiha Yue asked the question, the smile on Uchiha Fugaku's lips deepened. He said, "Yue-kun, are you finally going to help me deal with the Hyuga Clan? Don't worry, Yue-kun, I, Uchiha Fugaku, will definitely not shortchange you on the benefits you deserve. So, Yue-kun, if you have any ideas, just tell me! After all, I'm not an outsider, right?"

"Very good, Fugaku- kun, this is exactly the attitude I wanted."

Upon hearing Uchiha Fugaku's words, Uchiha Yue nodded and said, "Danzo just spoke with me and gave me a task: to gather intelligence on the Hyuga Clan. Judging from Danzo's intentions, he's preparing to Teuchi the Hyuga Clan. Moreover, Danzo possesses information about Hyuga Hiashi's alleged treason. If I can obtain more information about the Hyuga Clan, he's confident he can help us bring Hyuga Clan down."

"Of course, we can only believe half of what Danzo."

Uchiha Yue paused for a moment, then continued, "Danzo is an old fox, Fugaku- kun. You should know Danzo's methods, right? In my opinion, we can cooperate with Danzo, but we can't let him find any fault with Danzo. Fugaku- kun, I'll leave the task of gathering intelligence on the Hyuga Clan to you. As for internal strife within our Uchiha Clan, you don't need to worry about it for long. Now that old fox Danzo has cooperated with me, he shouldn't be able to sow discord within the Uchiha Clan anymore!"

"Thank you so much, Moon Lord!"

When Uchiha Yue arrived, a hint of joy flashed in Uchiha Fugaku's eyes, and he immediately thanked Uchiha Yue profusely. However, after bidding farewell to Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Yue still felt that he had revealed something. Even though Uchiha Yue kept thinking about what he had revealed the whole way back, by the time he returned to Tsunade's residence, he still couldn't figure out what it was.

But...

Just as Uchiha Yue returned to Tsunade's residence, preparing to train...

Suddenly, Uchiha Yue remembered his intention to run for Anbu, and then it dawned on him. "So that's it! I completely forgot that Danzo, as an elder of Konoha, also has the right to select Anbu! If I succeed in the Anbu election and Danzo chooses me, even the Third Hokage probably wouldn't be able to object! Moreover, if Danzo really selects me for his Anbu, he'll definitely send me to the Root team!"

"Danzo!"

"I never expected that even if you're going to use me, you'd have a plan to kill two birds with one stone!"

"If you can get me into the 'Root' team, will you really be able to completely control me?"

Thinking this to himself, a cold glint flashed in Uchiha Yue's eyes, and then he clenched his fists tightly.

"Danzo, you're underestimating me Uchiha Yue!"
