"Damn it, I actually fell into their trap!"
As for Hozuki July's words, Uchiha Yue had no idea how much was true and how much was false.
However, there was one thing Uchiha Yue could be certain of: a genuine Kage-level expert like Hozuki July could not possibly be defeated so easily by his Tsukuyomi.
