Clue

The information that Shimura Danzō handed over to the Third Hokage contained contents that would surely shock the entire Shinobi World. | Book Club

Even the Third Hokage and one of the Sannin of Konoha couldn't hide the shock in their eyes when they saw this information.

However, if the person reading this information were Uchiha Yue, who was far away in the Land of Water, then Uchiha Yue certainly wouldn't be too surprised.

Because some of the information recorded was something that Uchiha Yue, who was familiar with the original plot, already knew.

That is about Uchiha Yue's ancestor, Uchiha Madara!

Uchiha Madara is an absolutely unavoidable name, one that the ninjas of Konoha will never forget. Even now, those who understand that era, such as the Third Hokage and Shimura Danzō, are filled with awe upon hearing the name Uchiha Madara. Moreover, the information that Shimura Danzō gave to the Third Hokage contained the possibility that Uchiha Madara might still be alive today.

Therefore, because of the name Uchiha Madara, Shimura Danzō chose to compromise in front of Kirigakure.

That is why the Third Hokage fell silent after reading the intelligence report.

After all, if Uchiha Madara were really alive today, as the intelligence reports suggest, even the Third Hokage wouldn't know how to handle the situation.

Clearly, both the Third Hokage and Shimura Danzō were well aware that, apart from the First Hokage Senju Hashirama, no one in the entire Shinobi World could possibly defeat Uchiha Madara.

If Uchiha Madara were truly alive today, he would be a living legend!

However, Uchiha Yue, far away in the Land of Water, was unaware that Konoha had obtained intelligence about Uchiha Madara. Even though Uchiha Yue knew that the person he was about to confront might be Uchiha Madara Uchiha Yue, who was hiding in Kirigakure, he was still willing to take the risk for his mother, Minako, without hesitation, even if it meant facing off against the Shinobi World Uchiha Madara.

Since meeting with Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki, Uchiha Yue Kushina Uzumaki been waiting for them to relay the information back to Konoha so he could have a proper negotiation with the Konoha. If Konoha could compromise and put Minato Namikaze on Kirigakure, Uchiha Yue felt his chances of rescuing his mother would increase by at least 30%.

While Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki were exchanging information, Uchiha Yue was preparing to proceed with another part of his plan.

That is, to challenge the entire Kirigakure in the name of "Asura"!

Furthermore, in order to prevent Konoha from revealing his title of "Asura," Uchiha Yue did some things that ninjas would avoid in Kirigakure!

Massacre of civilians!

There is an unwritten rule in the Shinobi World that ninjas cannot slaughter civilians, even during times of war. However, the Konoha knew that Uchiha Yue had a nickname: "Asura". Therefore, fearing that negotiations with Konoha would fail, Uchiha Yue planned to preemptively use his "Asura" name to massacre civilians.

When the time comes and Konoha is truly ready to turn against Uchiha Yue, Konoha won't dare admit that Uchiha Yue is "Asura." Because if the ninja who massacred civilians is Konoha ninja, even if Konoha classifies the massacred ninja as rogue ninja, Konoha's reputation will still be affected. Therefore, to protect Konoha's reputation, Konoha will have no choice but to swallow its pride and bear the consequences.

Uchiha Yue's title of "Asura" will likely remain a taboo forever, hidden within Konoha.

Of course, the civilians that Uchiha Yue slaughtered were not innocent civilians.

When challenging civilians to be killed, Uchiha Yue usually chose those who had committed atrocities within the Land of Water. In other words, the civilians Uchiha Yue killed were people who deserved to die. In this way, Uchiha Yue's actions within the Land of Water gained the support of the civilians of Kirigakure. Moreover, whenever Uchiha Yue slaughtered those deserving civilians, he could absorb the eye power generated by the dead civilians.

Clearly, Uchiha Yue was preparing to amass his power within the Land of Water.

Only in this way did Uchiha Yue feel that he had the capital to challenge the entire Kirigakure!

Then, as Uchiha Yue killed more civilians and more Kirigakure within the Land of Water, his eye power remained at its peak. At least, Uchiha Yue didn't need to fear losing the light of his Mangekyō Sharingan. Once he had secured the light of his Mangekyō Sharingan, Uchiha Yue Uchiha Yue "Star" to train during his rest periods.

And so, Uchiha Yue stayed in the Land of Water for another ten days.

Ten days later, not only did Uchiha Yue's strength increase to another level, but while improving his strength, he also finally found information about his mother, Minako!

"Your Majesty's patience will be rewarded, Mother! I have finally obtained information about you!"

Looking at the intelligence scroll he had finally managed to steal, Uchiha Yue felt his hands trembling.

It had been so long since Uchiha Yue had felt this excited.

Immediately afterwards...

Without hesitation, Uchiha Yue unfolded the information scroll to see where his mother, Minako, was.

As long as the intelligence scroll contains a precise location, Uchiha Yue is prepared to brave any danger, even mountains of knives and seas of fire.

Because only Uchiha Yue, who was freely venting his anger within the Land of Water, truly understood just how difficult it was for him to obtain information about his mother, Minako!

However, after Uchiha Yue finished reading the intelligence scroll in his hand, Uchiha Yue suddenly frowned.

Immediately, Uchiha Yue, holding the intelligence scroll, thought to himself:

"Strange, according to common sense, Mother should have already been sent to Kirigakure."

"Even if I could find out where my mother is, she would probably be in a town near Kirigakure, or even inside Kirigakure itself."

"But why does the information I received indicate that Mother's location is in a town near the other side of the Land of Water's border?"

"Could it be that my identity as 'Asura' has already been exposed?"

"That guy hiding in Kirigakure is already preparing to deal with me?"

Or perhaps...

Thinking this to himself, Uchiha Yue suddenly had a bold idea.

Then, a glint of light flashed in Uchiha Yue's eyes, and Uchiha Yue continued to think to himself:

"Or perhaps, the Underground Exchange was an organization he created, which is why he recognized my 'Asura' nickname long ago."

"The reason he gave me some time was to let me get familiar with the Sharingan."

"Now that he feels I've mastered the Sharingan, he's preparing to test my abilities, which is why he specifically gave me this clue."

"Then I..."

Should I go to the meeting alone or not?

"Or should I cause some more trouble in the Land of Water?"
