"Fuyue."
Danzo was like an amiable elder as he poured a glass of wine for Uchiha Tomitake."You are the clan leader, so you can see many things more clearly than the clansmen.”
"They don't know anything, but can you still mess around with them?”
"The clan leader has to guide the clansmen on the right path. He has to take the lead and not follow the flow and be carried forward by the clansmen.”
These words were like a bolt from the blue that exploded in Uchiha Tomitake's head.
He felt that he had understood something because of these words, but he also felt that he did not understand anything.
However, there was no doubt that Tanzo knew Uchiha very well, and he knew himself very well.
This was what shocked Uchiha Tomitake.
Could it be that there was a spy in the clan?
Who was it?
Fu Yue was thinking about the candidate for the mole.
This time, he responded to the group and led Uchiha to battle. In fact, it was to ease the relationship between the village and Uchiha.
Originally, the relationship between the two was already very obvious. Although they were in the same village, the Uchiha clan was like an outsider. Not only did they live in the outer area of the wooden leaf, but their clansmen rarely interacted with the people in the village.
Due to the duty of the Muye Guards, they had a bad relationship with many people in the village.
Originally, after the death of the fourth generation Naruto, there were many voices in the clan that wanted to instigate a coup.
As time passed, the relationship between the village and the tribe became more and more rigid, which led to the increase of these voices.
Fu Yue saw it clearly, but he could do nothing.
Although he was the clan leader, he could only follow the flow and choose the thoughts of most of the people in the clan. He knew very well that if Uchiha really wanted a coup, it would definitely not succeed.
Standing in the position of clan leader, Uchiha Tomitake could see things more clearly.
The families in the village, big and small, and even the ninjas who were born as commoners, were not as simple as they seemed.
The power of the Uchiha clan alone was not enough to stop the entire Kinoha Village.
It was impossible to change the current situation by force and make the Uchiha family become Naruto and the ruler of Kinoha Village.
Even if Zhi Shui appeared, or if it was a genius among geniuses like his son Weasel, the probability of success was not high.
What made Fu Yue even more heartbroken was that the top geniuses in the clan still sided with the village.
"I…"
Fu Yue opened his mouth to explain that things were not like this, but he was powerless. Tuan Zang's attitude was obviously that this matter was already set in stone.
"Fuyue, you have to stop this from happening.”
"Since I chose to tell you now, it means that the village doesn't want to see this happen.”
"We don't want Uchiha's family to leave us, do you understand what I mean?”
Fu Yue felt bitter in his heart, but he still nodded silently.
He didn't know how much the group knew, but since the village knew, it meant that there was definitely a mole inside Uchiha.
Moreover, the position of the spy in the clan was not low.
Fu Yue, who was originally not optimistic about this matter, suddenly felt his heart turn cold.
He swore that even if he lost his position as the clan leader after returning to the village, he would try to stop the foolish actions and thoughts of his clansmen.
In the slightly dilapidated tavern, Uchiha Tomitake felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles. He did not say a word or explain.
Halfway through their conversation, the oil girl Ryoma suddenly appeared beside Tanzang and reported something in a low voice.
"I understand."
Tuan Zang nodded and waved his hand with a calm expression, indicating for the Dragon Horse to retreat.
"I only asked you to talk today because you're still rational.”Tuan Zang tapped the table lightly. He still maintained a gentle smile on his face, but his tone was clearly cold.
"In this war, I hope that Uchiha will obey my orders and not be as arrogant as before.”
Tuan Zang stated the purpose of this battle. This battle was related to his reputation and touching points, so he could not afford to make any mistakes.
Although his current status was not low, it was only in the eyes of the higher-ups of the villages. Even some of the younger higher-ups did not know his name.
This would be quite difficult for him to spread his reputation.
There weren't many opportunities to receive touching points like now.
If Uchiha's men did not cause trouble on the battlefield and obediently listened to his commands, the team would not mind letting them go.
After all, the destruction of Uchiha's clan was also a loss to the strength of the Kinoha Village.
However, if he still maintained his high and mighty attitude and did not listen to his orders, he would be able to escape.
A hint of coldness flashed in Tuan Zang's eyes.
"Lord Tuanzang, so you are here too.”
A surprised voice sounded, causing Tuan Zang to frown.
Hinata Niksai sat down beside Tanzo and smiled."I couldn't find a suitable restaurant in this small town for a long time. I originally planned to find a tavern to have a drink, but I didn't expect you to be here.”
His tone was full of surprise.
If it wasn't for the fact that Ryuuma had told him about Ri Ri Cha's movements in advance, Tuan Zang almost wouldn't have been able to tell that this guy was deliberately looking for the two of them.
"What a coincidence."
Although he knew it, Tuan Zang still smiled and ordered some dishes.
"What a coincidence." Hinata Niksai smiled and asked curiously,""Tomorrow, we will be fighting. Are the two of you discussing strategic matters?”
As soon as he said this, Tuan Zang roughly understood why he was here. He could not help but smile and reply,"No, I'm talking to Fuyue about some private matters.”
"Personal matters?"
Hinako looked at the two of them strangely. Although he was a member of the Hinako branch family, he still had a lot of connections in the village.
He was well aware of the relationship between the Uchiha clan and Tanzo.
However, it was also because of this reason that he did not sleep in the middle of the night and came to this tavern to look for the two of them.
He suspected that the group was actually acting. From the moment Uchiha opened his mouth to support the group, there had been such voices in the various families.
Although Danzang had inherited the second generation's ideas on the surface, he was extremely resistant to Uchiha.
But in fact, behind the scenes, Tanzo had already colluded with Uchiha's people. After all, although the two had always been rejecting and hating each other, there was actually no conflict of interest at the root.
However, this was only a small number of people's guesses, and it did not even reach Naruto's ears.
"Lord Tuanzang, I still have to prepare for tomorrow's matter, so I'll take my leave first.”As if he couldn't bear the pressure brought by the group trove, Fu Yue gritted his teeth and stood up.
"You should go and prepare well. After all, there are many things that I need to trouble your people.”Tuan Zang smiled and stood up.
Fu Yue's heart turned cold again. He hurriedly waved his hand to signal Tuan Zang not to send him off and left quickly.
As he watched Fu Yue leave, he felt that there was something else going on between the two of them.
"Day difference, eat slowly. I'll leave first.”Looking at Fuyue's back as he left, Tanzo nodded in satisfaction and said to Day Gap beside him.
With that, he stood up and left.
He was left sitting there with a dumbfounded expression.
……
The forests covered by dense trees were the main theme of the Fire Country's environment. It was also because of this that the Fire Country was more fertile than the other four countries.
Black shadows were jumping among the trees.
Early in the morning, Tuan Zang and the others had already prepared themselves and were heading towards Siming Mountain.
Danzo nodded in satisfaction as he watched the Uchiha family obediently guard the surroundings.
Although he still had an arrogant look on his face and was full of disdain for the people around him, it was enough for him to be obedient.
The warning he gave Fu Yue last night was still meaningful.
Right at this moment, Ri Cha suddenly spoke,""There are traces of ninjas ahead. They should be from Hidden Cloud Village.”
Through the roll of his eyes, he had already noticed the signal from Uchiha, who was scouting in front of the team.
"Confirm their exact location.”Tuan Zang said. Since they were close to Mount Siming, Hidden Cloud's people didn't find it strange.
Day Gap nodded. There were already a few figures moving quickly towards the front of the team beside him.
The whole team stopped and waited for a while. The few Hinata clansmen who had just left returned.
"The enemy is not far ahead. According to the speed of the team, we should be able to catch up to them in about three minutes. They haven't discovered us, and their numbers are less than one-tenth of our numbers.”One of the Ninjas reported.
Tuan Zang nodded and looked at the others around him with a calm expression.
Familiar faces were waiting for orders.
A cold glint flashed across his eyes as he said,"Everyone, catch up to them and surround them. There's no need to leave any survivors.”
"There's no need to hide anything.”
"But the enemy has a lot of people. Won't this expose our whereabouts?”Hinari asked in confusion.
Tuan Zang shook his head and replied," It's fine. We're already close to Siming Mountain. We have so many people. Even if we don't kill them, we won't be able to hide our tracks for long."”
"We should take advantage of this opportunity to weaken the other party's strength.”
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The sound of air being torn apart continued. Under the signal of Tuan Zang, the surrounding people continued to quickly rush towards the enemy's location.
The battle had already begun. Tuan Zang looked at Maitekai, who was eager to rush out, and said,"Kai, you stay by my side and be my guard.”
With his current strength, it was still somewhat difficult for him to protect himself in this battle.
Other than touching points, he recruited Ma Te Kai to protect his own Anne.
Maitekai, who was proficient in the Eight Gates of Divination, was like his father. As long as he saw Tuan Zang as his partner, he would naturally risk his life to protect Tuan Zang.
" But..." Maitekai looked at the fire in front of him and felt unwilling.
Right now, all he wanted to do was to gain battle merits and make a name for himself. He wanted to let the entire Ninja Realm know that Mu Ye was a proud blue beast.
Looking at Maitekai's expression, Danzang knew that he was unwilling to give up, so he explained,""The supreme commander is the core of the entire team. Protecting me is the key to this war.”
"Moreover, these people are just Hidden Cloud's vanguard team. They're just some small fries.”
"When we face Hidden Cloud's main force, even if you want to stay by my side as a guard, I will order you to go into battle and kill the enemy.”
These words suppressed Maitekai's impatience and he replied,""Yes, I will definitely protect Lord Tanzo's safety!”
Day Gap looked at Maitekai strangely. He didn't understand why the group would pay so much attention to a commoner.
Maitekai was a ninja who specialized in physical techniques, and he was also a special Jounin. As a family of physical techniques, the Hinata clan naturally paid attention to him.
However, commoners were still commoners. No matter how hard they worked, they could not keep up with the descendants of families with bloodstains and thousands of years of inheritance.
