The Straggler Sand Ninja

Under Shimura Danzō's schemes, Orochimaru was destined for tragedy.

Uchiha Yue the principle that a wise man avoids dangerous situations. Therefore, after completing the task Uchiha Yue assigned Orochimaru, he planned to quickly escape Orochimaru's side. After all, as Tsunade's disciple, Tsunade could help him resolve some issues. With Tsunade's assistance, he could then switch allegiance to Uchiha Yue, thus avoiding any Jiraiya conflict with Orochimaru Uchiha Yue escaping the power struggle.

Unfortunately, Uchiha Yue's idea was beautiful, reality was cruel.

While Uchiha Yue tried his best to avoid getting involved in the power struggle, he had already become a part of it.

However, Uchiha Yue no longer thinks that far ahead, considering himself merely a figure from Konoha.

Therefore, when Uchiha Yue truly realizes that he is also part of the power struggle, he will surely suffer a painful lesson!

However, at this time, Uchiha Yue didn't think that much about it. In fact, he genuinely believed that as long as he could avoid those conspiracies, he could guarantee his own safety. So, after Uchiha Yue decided to leave Orochimaru 'Uchiha Yue side, he continued to carry out missions with the Shadow. Within the Land of Land of Wind, Uchiha Yue followed the Shadow to the Land of Earth, needing to stop and rest every now and then.

Because, right after Uchiha Yue and his Shadow wiped out a Sunagakure team, they discovered Land of Wind the Sunagakure's security had become even tighter.

"Mr. Lu Yang, it seems the Sunagakure is on high alert."

Using his Purple Eye to observe the departing Sunagakure ninjas, Uchiha Yue's eyes were filled with a grave light. He said to the Shadow beside him, "When we killed that Sunagakure team, Sunagakure. So, it seems the problem isn't with us, but with Lord Orochimaru. If I'm not mistaken, Lord Orochimaru's situation is rather dire!"

"Yes, that's right."

Hearing Uchiha Yue's words, Shadow nodded heavily and analyzed for him, "It seems the Sunagakure has discovered Lord Orochimaru 'Lord Orochimaru whereabouts and is preparing to annihilate his team. Tsuki-kun, do you know? In the Shinobi World, Lord Orochimaru Uchiha Yue an object of elimination for every ninja village. Because if we can eliminate Lord Orochimaru, our village's power will decline drastically. Now, the Sunagakure ninjas' target is probably Lord Orochimaru and his group!"

Shadow hesitated for a moment, then said, "However, I believe Lord Orochimaru definitely has a solution, but we've been implicated. If those Sunagakure find us, they'll definitely capture us and get the information we have. Now, we must hide our movements and not let those Sunagakure guys discover us. Moon Lord, you're a sensory-type ninja, so it's up to you to conceal our whereabouts!"

"Good!"

To ensure his safety, Uchiha Yue naturally wouldn't be careless. He immediately released his spiritual energy to conceal his and his Shadow's whereabouts. Moreover, the advantage of Uchiha Yue's powerful spiritual energy became apparent at this moment. With his powerful spiritual energy, Uchiha Yue was able to fully utilize it to hide his and his Shadow's movements from the sensory ninjas of Sunagakure.

To sense the presence of Uchiha Yue and his Shadow, those sensory ninjas from Sunagakure would need to possess spiritual energy surpassing that of Uchiha Yue.

However, setting aside the spiritual energy cultivated by Uchiha Yue himself, is the spiritual energy of the Monster Ido that Uchiha Yue devoured even more imaginable to ordinary people?

Therefore, as long as Uchiha Yue wants to block the senses of those sensory-type ninjas, very few people can sense his presence.

From this, Shadow also sensed Uchiha Yue's strength and stopped looking at Uchiha Yue.

Don't forget, Uchiha Yue is only seven years old now, and he has a long way to go in the future!

At the tender age of seven, Uchiha Yue possesses such strength, indicating that his potential for improvement far surpasses that of many Jonin-level ninjas.

In fact, in Shadow's view, Uchiha Yue might very well grow into a powerful figure who surpasses the Sannin in the future!

Then, with the protection of Uchiha Yue's spiritual energy, Uchiha Yue and Shadow could travel with some peace of mind. However, Uchiha Yue and Shadow still needed to avoid the traps set by the Sunagakure ninjas. After all, simply blocking the senses of those Sunagakure sensory ninjas wasn't enough to truly conceal their whereabouts. If they fell into those traps set by the Sunagakure ninjas, Uchiha Yue and Shadow's actions would still be exposed.

Thanks to the Shadow's extensive experience, he was able to lead Uchiha Yue away from the traps set by the Sunagakure ninja.

However, on the third day of their journey, Uchiha Yue and his Shadow discovered something unusual using his Purple Eye.

Within the range of Uchiha Yue's Purple Eye, he actually discovered a lone Sunagakure ninja standing in front of him and his Shadow!

"Mr. Lu Yang, did you sense it?"

Staring intently at the lone Sunagakure ninja, Uchiha Yue narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "There's Sunagakure ninja ahead!"

"Yes, I sensed it!"

Hearing Uchiha Yue's words, the Shadow hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Yue-kun, look at that Sunagakure ninja ahead. He seems to be seriously injured. If I'm not mistaken, that Sunagakure ninja must have escaped! Their team probably fought Lord Orochimaru's team, and he was the only one who escaped. If we can capture that Sunagakure ninja alive, we can get more information."

"Only..."

Shadow hesitated for a moment, then said, "However, capturing that Sunagakure ninja will also put us in some danger. Moon Lord, if those Sunagakure ninjas are deliberately luring us out, we'll fall into their ambush! So, I'll take on the task of capturing that Sunagakure alive! Moon Lord, if anything unusual happens, abandon me and return to Lord Orochimaru and the others, understand?"

"Yes!"

Since the Shadow was willing to take the risk, Uchiha Yue certainly couldn't let himself be in danger, so he nodded to the Shadow.

Then, under the insight of Uchiha Yue's Purple Eye, the Shadow slowly approached the Sunagakure ninja.

However, just as the Shadow was about to make a move against the lone Sunagakure ninja, Uchiha Yue's Purple Eye suddenly noticed something interesting!

"Something seems off about that Sunagakure ninja!"
