Can't Afford to Lose

After obtaining the sealing technique from Minato Namikaze, Uchiha Yue knew that he was bound to break his word.

This was because the sealing technique Uchiha Yue wanted was not meant to restrain his enemies, but the members of his own "Moon" squad. After all, the members Uchiha Yue had selected for the "Moon" squad were basically all members of the Uchiha Clan—and ones loyal to Uchiha Fugaku at that.

If Uchiha Yue wanted the members of the "Moon" squad he had formed to be completely loyal to him and never leak even the slightest bit of his information, he needed to use unconventional means to control them.
