"Heh, you've really gone to great lengths to defeat me!"
Using his Purple Eye to perceive the arrival of powerful members of Kirigakure's Yuki Clan, Kaguya Clan, and another Hozuki Clan expert, Uchiha Yue curled his lips into a mocking smile and said to Sasori of the Red Sands before him, "Sasori of the Red Sands, where did your pride go? The Sasori of the past would never have joined forces with Kirigakure's experts to deal with me. Who would have thought that time really was a butcher's knife? The Puppet Master genius of Sunagakure has now fallen so low as to become Kirigakure's lapdog?"
As he spoke, the Kirigakure experts from the Yuki Clan, Kaguya Clan, and Hozuki Clan had already arrived at Uchiha Yue's side, surrounding him layer by layer from all directions. At that moment, Sasori of the Red Sands heard Uchiha Yue's words as well. Yet, not the slightest change appeared on Sasori of the Red Sands' face. It was impossible to tell whether he had completed the art of turning himself into a human puppet, or whether his skin had simply grown too thick to fear Uchiha Yue's mockery.
However, shortly after Uchiha Yue finished speaking, the Hozuki Clan expert from Kirigakure spotted Hozuki July's body. Yet he showed no trace of resentment toward Uchiha Yue. Instead, as though he were merely sighing over Uchiha Yue's strength, the Hozuki Clan expert said before Uchiha Yue, Sasori of the Red Sands, and the others, "That old man Hozuki July really did die by your hand, Uchiha Yue."
"You should know that when I was young, the Hozuki Clan had two legends. One was Hozuki July, and the other was me, Hozuki March. That's right, I, Hozuki March, am the cousin of the Hozuki July you killed.
