The answer, Uchiha Yue, was not found. |||Say|Net updates the fastest

Or perhaps, the question Uchiha Yue asked himself had no answer at all.

Uchiha Yue has always been a proud person. He knows that as Anbu, he must act according to the rules of the Anbu. Therefore, even though Orochimaru's words made Uchiha Yue feel confused, as long as he wears a mask and maintains his Anbu identity, he must hold himself to the rules of the Anbu. Just like now, Uchiha Yue the change in himself, but he doesn't feel that he has done anything wrong.

And so, following in Orochimaru's footsteps, Uchiha Yue found many stone tablets within the Land of Water.

Furthermore, as Uchiha Yue Orochimaru for a longer period, he gained the recognition of many of Orochimaru's Anbu members, which could be considered one of his advancements. However, just as Uchiha Yue had found a new stone tablet for Orochimaru Uchiha Yue, Orochimaru suddenly summoned him and asked with a smile, "Uchiha Yue, are you settling in well in the Land of Water?"

"Hmm, it's alright."

Upon hearing Orochimaru's question, Uchiha Yue nodded slightly and said, "Lord Orochimaru, there's really nothing I'm not used to. As a ninja, it's inevitable to go out on missions. Just like Land of Water for a mission now, it's just a ninja's basic work. I must thank Lord Orochimaru for his concern."

"Hehe, Yue, I admire your attitude."

As soon as Uchiha Yue finished speaking, Orochimaru's smile deepened, and Uchiha Yue continued, "Yue, I have a task for you. Are you confident you can complete it?"

"Certainly!"

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Yue nodded heavily without the slightest hesitation and asked, "Lord Orochimaru, what is the mission?"

"Okay, then I'll be with you now!"

At this moment, Orochimaru slowly wiped the smile from his face and said, "Our recent missions have been completed very well, but we're running out of time. As you know, carrying out missions in the Land of Water inevitably attracts the attention of those guys from Kirigakure. We've been staying in the Land of Water for a while now, and to avoid clashing with those Kirigakure guys, I'm planning to divide the Anbu into several teams to carry out missions, and you'll be leading one of them."

At this point, Orochimaru paused for a moment, then said, "Yue, if you have any opinions, please speak up."

"Yes, Lord Orochimaru."

When Orochimaru arrived, Uchiha Yue nodded slightly and asked, "Lord Orochimaru, who are the members of the team I'm to lead?"

"Yue, it seems I know you quite well; I guessed you'd ask about this."

Upon hearing Uchiha Yue's words, Orochimaru's face suddenly showed a playful expression. He said, "Then I'll tell you now, Yue, you don't have any team members with you. I need you to go and complete the mission alone. How about it? Alone in the Land of Water, do you still have the confidence to complete the mission? If not, you can stay by my side and watch them complete the mission."

"Lord Orochimaru, I have confidence!"

Just as Orochimaru arrived, Uchiha Yue face was hidden behind a mask, suddenly revealed a confident smile and said, "Then please tell me, Lord Orochimaru, how I need to complete the next task!"

"Um!"

Orochimaru finished their conversation, Uchiha Yue Orochimaru Uchiha Yue's meaning: he wanted to send him to the Land of Water to complete a mission alone. Moreover, Orochimaru clearly intended to test Uchiha Yue, since he wasn't currently Jonin- Uchiha Yue ninja. Completing a mission alone within the Land of Water would be comparable to a regular B-rank mission, or even a regular A-rank mission.

Within the Land of Water, it is undoubtedly the home ground of the Kirigakure ninjas.

For ninjas from other villages, completing a mission within the Land of Water would naturally be much more difficult.

For a ninja like Uchiha Yue, completing a mission alone in the Land of Water is even more difficult.

However, Orochimaru arranged this challenge for Uchiha Yue, hoping that he would complete the mission alone within the Land of Water.

Uchiha Yue did not disappoint Orochimaru. After Orochimaru explained the details of the mission, Uchiha Yue disappeared from his sight.

"Whoosh..."

Having left the place where Orochimaru and the others were, Uchiha Yue is now alone in the Land of Land of Water.

Furthermore, after leaving Orochimaru and the others, Uchiha Yue used his Purple Eye to survey his surroundings and, as expected, detected no Anbu following him. Clearly, Orochimaru truly intended for Uchiha Yue be alone in the Land of Land of Water, rather than sending Anbu with him to train Uchiha Yue. Simply put, if Uchiha Yue failed his mission in the Land of Water, he would die a gruesome death there!

However, Uchiha Yue showed no fear whatsoever; he remained confident that he could complete the mission.

However, without Orochimaru and his Anbu by his side, Uchiha Yue needs to be even more Uchiha Yue Orochimaru the others, he kept his Purple Eye activated, constantly monitoring his surroundings to avoid being detected by the Kirigakure ninja. After all, Uchiha Yue is someone countless ninja villages want to kill; if he fails to conceal his presence, the enemies he faces might not be as simple as the Kirigakure ninja from the Land of Water.

Immediately afterwards...

It took Uchiha Yue a full three hours to finally reach the place where he needed to complete his mission, a place called Turtlefish Village.

Turtlefish Village is undoubtedly a very strange name, and it is also a very poor village within the Land of Water.

However, hidden within this impoverished village lies what Orochimaru needs, which is why Uchiha Yue comes here to carry out his mission.

What Uchiha Yue needs to do in this village is actually the same as the missions he has carried out before: to take the stone tablet in the village and kill all the civilians in the village. However, just as Uchiha Yue arrived at this village, Uchiha Yue, who uses his Purple Eye, suddenly sensed that there were Chakra fluctuations hidden in this village.

Then, upon sensing those Chakra fluctuations, Uchiha Yue narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking to himself:

"The task Orochimaru gave me is truly challenging!"
