Cooperation

(This is the second update of the day, released at 5 PM!)

(Please click, recommend, favorite, and tip! I would be Wu Yue grateful!)

"Haha, Moon Lord, you're really direct!"

As soon as Uchiha Yue finished speaking, Uchiha Fugaku paused for a moment, then burst into laughter, saying, "However, Tsuki-kun, I just like dealing with straightforward people like you. Actually, what I need you to do is very simple: just help me out a little when I'm competing for the clan head position. After all, Tsuki-kun, your potential is truly astonishing; you'll definitely have a place among the strongest Uchiha Clan in the future."

"Oh? You, like Elder Lei, see potential in me?"

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Yue smiled slightly and countered, "But, Fugaku- kun, aren't you afraid that I'm Elder Lei's man?"

"Don't be afraid!"

The brief conversation allowed Uchiha Fugaku to understand Uchiha Yue's personality, and he then said directly, "Yue-kun, don't blame me for being too blunt. If you really are Elder Lei's man, do you need to teach Ryu-kun, Shimizu, and Mishima- kun a lesson? Besides, even if you really are Elder Lei's man, you can't help but feel some resentment, right? After all, Naraku was transferred to the Police Force by Elder Lei. I think you understand Elder Lei's intentions, Yue-kun?"

"Snort!"

When they arrived at Uchiha Fugaku's place, Uchiha Yue made no attempt to hide his emotions, letting out a cold snort. Clearly, the fact that Uchiha Nara had been transferred to the Police Force was a thorn in Uchiha Yue's side. If Uchiha Lei Uchiha Yue n't intended to monitor him, Uchiha Yue wouldn't have minded working for the Uchiha Clan. After all, he was also a member of the Uchiha Yue Uchiha Clan, and his father Uchiha Nara Uchiha Clan same loyalty.

However, Uchiha Lei's overconfidence not only sowed discord among the Uchiha Nara but also caused resentment among Uchiha Yue. Therefore, after a moment's thought, Uchiha Yue directly stated to Uchiha Fugaku, "Fugaku- kun, if you wish to run for clan leader, I can support you, provided I possess sufficient strength. Furthermore, I will not interfere in clan affairs, as that is not my forte."

I understand.

At this moment, a satisfied smile appeared on Uchiha Fugaku's face. He said, "Moon Lord, I understand what you all are thinking. You undoubtedly want to stand at the pinnacle of the ninja world. Of course, I also know that you, Moon Lord, will one day be able to stand at the pinnacle of the ninja world. Therefore, you can leave all the clan affairs to me. I only need you to give your opinion."

Uchiha Fugaku paused slightly before continuing, "However, Tsuki-kun, you might have to endure a little hardship in the future. You should know that Elder Lei sent me here to monitor you. Right now, I don't have the strength to confront Elder Lei Rui directly, so we both need to be patient for a while. Of course, our period of patience might not be too long, because Danzo from Konoha has already contacted me. He also doesn't think highly of Elder Lei and his group managing the clan's affairs."

"Danzo?"

Upon suddenly hearing Danzo's name, Uchiha Yue's heart skipped a beat, and a look of seriousness appeared in his eyes.

Clearly, Uchiha Yue had never imagined that Uchiha Fugaku's rise to power was related to Danzo. However, after learning that Danzo had interfered in the affairs of the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Yue had even more confidence in Uchiha Fugaku. After all, Uchiha Fugaku was also a capable person, and with Danzo, an elder of Konoha, secretly cooperating, it would be far too easy to overthrow the elders of the Uchiha Clan.

Furthermore, after learning that Danzo was interfering in the affairs of the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Yue was somewhat relieved about her conversation with Uchiha Fugaku. This was because Uchiha Fugaku currently had no foundation within the Uchiha Clan, and Uchiha Yue's early cooperation with Uchiha Fugaku would allow her to gain more benefits in the future.

Of course, Uchiha Yue also did not forget that in the world of ninjas, strength is the most important thing.

Therefore, even if he does start cooperating with Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Yue will not forget to improve his own strength.

After all, formidable strength is the only asset in the ninja world. Even with absolute power, one is utterly powerless against a strong opponent.

Immediately afterwards...

Once Uchiha Yue understood this, he looked solemnly at Uchiha Fugaku and said seriously, "Fugaku- kun, I need to remind you here that we are all members of the Uchiha Clan. Therefore, for the benefit of the Uchiha Clan, we can cooperate with the higher-ups of Konoha, but we cannot be manipulated by them. Don't be fooled by the fact that my master is Tsunade; I have not forgotten my bloodline. So I hope you will not forget that you are a ninja of the Uchiha Clan Konoha!"

"Yes, Moon Lord!"

Hearing Uchiha Yue's words, Uchiha Fugaku's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Of course I can't forget that I am a ninja of the Uchiha Clan. However, when Elder Lei others were in charge of clan affairs, you, Tsuki-kun, could also see the decline of our Uchiha Clan. As for the matter of cooperating with the Konoha's higher-ups, I will naturally handle it carefully. As long as I can successfully sit in the position of clan leader and have the power to control the clan, I will absolutely not continue to cooperate with Konoha!"

Then, Uchiha Fugaku changed the subject and asked, "So, Tsuki-kun, can we talk about cooperation now?"

"Um."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Yue nodded slightly, and then waited for Uchiha Fugaku to speak.

After a moment's hesitation, Uchiha Fugaku addressed Uchiha Yue directly, saying, "Tsuki-kun, I currently have no foundation within the clan and desperately need your help. You know that Elder Lei sent me here to assist your training with the intention of monitoring you. However, since Elder Lei sent me, we share both honor and disgrace. Therefore, the better you perform, the higher my standing within the clan will be! If you can truly defeat all the talents of the Hyuga Clan, my prestige within the clan will reach its zenith!"

"So, Tsuki-kun, I hope you can become Chunin in a short time, and it would be even better if you could join the Anbu!"

What do you think?

As soon as Uchiha Fugaku finished speaking, Uchiha Yue nodded without hesitation and said, "Don't worry, I can definitely defeat the new generation of the Hyuga Clan. But..." Uchiha Yue paused slightly, then continued, "But, Fugaku- kun, these are all things I have to do, but what benefits will I get?"

Buddha had anticipated Uchiha Yue's question. Uchiha Fugaku then produced a scroll and placed it directly in front of Uchiha Yue, confidently stating, "Tsuki-kun, what you need most right now isn't my guidance, but more intelligence. I'm currently cooperating with Danzo, so I have access to Konoha's intelligence network and can gather information you wouldn't expect. Consider this newly acquired information a small gift; I hope we can cooperate happily in the future!"

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Fugaku smiled and extended his hand.

Seeing Uchiha Fugaku Uchiha Yue reached out and shook it, then put away the scroll on the table and said calmly:

"Yes, it's a pleasure doing business with you!"
