"Lord Yue, this is truly madness!"
As Minato Namikaze walked through Konoha's camp, whenever he saw the exhausted faces of the Uchiha Clan's elite, he could not help sighing to Shikaku Nara at his side. However, Minato's sigh was justified. Even Shikaku, upon seeing the deep exhaustion in the eyes of those Uchiha Clan elite unit members, could not help feeling sympathy for them. Yet Minato and Shikaku did not pity them most—they pitied Uchiha Yue even more.
Uchiha Yue, who had led the Uchiha Clan elite forces under his command through bitter battles for just two short months!
Why had the two Uchiha Clan elite units under Uchiha Yue suffered so few casualties over two whole months of combat?
Was it not all because of Uchiha Yue's madness?
If not for Uchiha Yue, even if Kirigakure's ninja had no desire to fight Konoha's ninja, the Uchiha Clan elite forces, with only two ninja units, could never have seized half the Land of Water's territory with virtually no losses. Nor could those two Uchiha Clan elite units have fought battle after battle under Uchiha Yue's leadership, winning every fight and taking every stronghold as they pushed deep into the Land of Water.
Moreover, even Konoha's rear-line supplies could not keep pace with Uchiha Yue's insane strategy, which showed just how perilous it was for the Konoha ninja forces under his command to have penetrated so deeply into the Land of Water. Fortunately, when Uchiha Yue and the two Uchiha Clan elite units he led ventured deep into the crisis-ridden Land of Water, Minato Namikaze and Shikaku Nara helped him resolve the issues of rear-line supplies and the occupied Land of Water territory.
Minato's strength as a quasi-Kage-level expert and Shikaku's brilliant mind became another sharp weapon in Uchiha Yue's conquest
