"Fight?"
"Yue, you still want to fight?"
The moment Uchiha Yue finished speaking, a flicker of anger surfaced in the eyes of Minato Namikaze, who had always been mild-tempered before him. Ignoring Shikaku Nara's attempts to stop him, Minato strode straight up to Yue and demanded, "Yue, it's been two whole months. No matter how crazy you've been, Shikaku and I have gone along with you. Even the elite forces of your Uchiha Clan have been driven crazy alongside you!"
"But can you stop now? Can you try to understand how we feel?"
"Look outside. Look at the members of your Uchiha Clan's elite forces. Look what you've done to them!"
As he spoke, Minato hurried forward and threw open the tent flap, shouting furiously, "For two entire months, not a single ninja under your Uchiha Clan elite forces has had a proper rest! And under these circumstances, you still want to fight? Do you have to watch every companion under your command die at the hands of Kirigakure's ninjas before you'll be satisfied?"
"Minato, calm down. I'm not taking them into battle."
Before this, if Uchiha Yue had heard Minato's advice, he would certainly have understood Minato's good intentions. But now, after listening to him, Yue merely smiled faintly and paid it no mind. "Minato, Mr. Shikaku, I'll remember your concern. One day, I'll repay you both. But what happens with Kirigakure is my business alone, so you needn't worry yourselves over it."
"Besides..."
At that, the smile curling at Uchiha Yue's lips suddenly deepened. Then, while Minato Namikaze and Shikaku Nara were completely unprepared, Yue slipped past their attempts to stop him and walked to the front of the tent. "Besides, Minato, Mr. Shikaku, I know what I'm doing. So please, let me be crazy just this once.
