[Sister Tsunade's words are consistent with Yuan Jun's judgment. Even Sister Tsunade is very clear that the conflict between the village and the Uchiha will eventually break out.

Because neither side is willing to give in, nor willing to compromise, this is a deadlock.

Listening to Tsunade-hime's words, Senju Xue's expression gradually calmed down.

“Xue, you and Xuan hold the future of our family, and you represent the Thousand Hands.

The reason I'm asking you to keep your distance from Uchiha Yuan now is to avoid you being caught in a dilemma one day in the future."

Princess Tsunade said.

"Tsunade-sister, Xuan and I both trust Yuan-kun. The day you're worried about is just a possibility, and we won't give up our friendship with Yuan-kun just because of a possibility that hasn't happened.

Sister Tsunade, I hope you can understand our feelings."

Senju Xue looked at Tsunade-hime with a determined expression.

Hearing this, Princess Tsunade was silent for a moment, then sighed softly.

What can she say!

The word "friendship" made her swallow all the words of dissuasion that were on the tip of her tongue.

At this moment, Tsunade couldn't help but think of Orochimaru.

If the village ordered her to hunt down Orochimaru, even though she would be extremely angry about Orochimaru's defection, she would eventually choose to give up the mission.

"Forget it. I don't care about these disputes in the village anyway."

Princess Tsunade said, regaining her lazy expression.

However, Princess Tsunade never imagined that the struggle between the village and the Uchiha clan would be so intense that it would end with the annihilation of the Uchiha clan.

Some time later, Tsunade-hime and Shizune returned to her residence.

“I never thought that Xue Hexuan and Uchiha Yuan had such a deep bond.

Senju and Uchiha... I wonder what expression my grandfather would have if he saw them."

Princess Tsunade sat at the door, looking up at the night sky, and said with a complicated expression.

Shizune was spreading the bedding in the room. Upon hearing this, she turned to look at Tsunade-sama and said uncertainly, "Tsunade-sama, it seems that Miss Xue's feelings towards Uchiha Fuu are not just ordinary friendship?"

Tsunade chuckled twice before saying, "Xue likes Uchiha Yuan, but it seems that Uchiha Yuan doesn't know Xue's feelings at the moment."

After laying out the bedding, Shizune came to Tsunade and asked with a worried look on her face: "Sama Tsunade, if the conflict between the village and the Uchiha clan really breaks out, and Miss Xue and Master Xuan choose to support Uchiha Yuan, what should we do?"

Princess Tsunade said nonchalantly, "We will leave the village tomorrow. The struggle between the old man and the Uchiha clan has nothing to do with us."

A few days later, at Konoha's Training Ground No. 10.

Amidst the complicated gazes from those around him, Hyuga Neji knelt on his knees and kowtowed solemnly to Uchiha Yuan who was sitting in front of him.

"Hyuga Neji greets the teacher."

After kowtowed three times, Hyuga Neji stood up, took a cup of tea from a Hyuga clan member beside him and handed it to Uchiha Yuan.

"Ningji, get up."

Uchiha Yuan took the teacup and said to Hyuga Neji with sharp eyes.

At this time, Hyuga Hizashi, who was standing nearby, smiled and said, "Captain Fuchi, I'll leave Neji to you from now on."

"Don't worry, I will teach Neji seriously."

Uchiha Yuan said.

Outside the training ground, Kakashi, Kurenai Yuhi, Genma Shiranui and others watched Hyuga Neji become his apprentice.

Seeing such a solemn apprenticeship ceremony, Kakashi said softly: "The Third Hokage must be having a headache. It is obvious that the Uchiha and Hyuga have reached some kind of alliance."

Kurenai Yuhi said, "Perhaps this is the Hyuga clan expressing their dissatisfaction with the Hokage.

After all, the Hokage's handling of the Kumogakure kidnapping incident was indeed inappropriate."

Mitarashi Anko stared at Uchiha Furu from afar and said, "The Hyuga clan practices the Gentle Fist. Although Uchiha Furu's taijutsu is strong, can he guide Hyuga Neji on how to practice?"

"Perhaps Uchiha Yuan and Hyuga Hiashi don't care about this. What they want is the status of master and disciple."

Kakashi said.

At this moment, in the woods on the edge of Training Ground No. 10, a vortex appeared in the void, and then a masked figure appeared.

Then, a figure with a black and white face emerged from the tree.

The two were none other than Uchiha Obito and Zetsu.

Obito stood on the tree, looking at Uchiha Yuan from afar and said in surprise: "I never thought that the Hyuga clan would agree to this apprenticeship."

Zetsu on the side said, “I heard that under the pressure of the Kumogakure, the Hyuga clan was going to let Hyuga Hizashi die in their place.

It was Uchiha Yuan who suppressed the Kumogakure envoys and saved the Hyuga clan from their predicament."

Hearing this, Obito could not help but sneer: "Humph, pathetic branch family."

After a pause, he continued, "I haven't paid attention to Konoha for a while, and I didn't expect so many things to happen.

Jue, have you found any trace of the Illuminati?"

"Master Madara, I'm sorry, but I didn't find any trace of the Illuminati."

Jue shook his head and said.

"What a mysterious organization! Earth King, Green God, and Flame Demon, three Illuminati members have appeared so far.

Judging from the strength they demonstrated, each of them has the strength of a Kage.

Will this Illuminati pose a threat to the Moon Eye Project?"

Obito said in a serious voice.

"Although I'd like to say no, it's very likely."

Jue said in a deep voice.

"From what we can see so far, the Illuminati invaded Konoha twice and both times they broke into the Root. If we want to find clues about the Illuminati, perhaps we should focus on the Root and Danzo."

Obito said.

"I have infiltrated the Root many times and from what I have observed, Danzo knows nothing about the Illuminati."

Jue said helplessly.

"what!"

Obito looked at the training ground and suddenly let out a cry of surprise.

Uchiha Fugaku came in front of Uchiha Yuan, followed by Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke.

"Yuan, congratulations on accepting an excellent disciple."

Uchiha Fugaku first congratulated.

Then, he continued, "Yuan, do you mind accepting another disciple?"

Hearing this, everyone around was shocked, and then their eyes fell on Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke behind him.

"Clan leader!"

Uchiha Yuan showed surprise and looked at Uchiha Sasuke behind him.

Sasuke pouted and turned away with a cold face facing Uchiha Yuan's gaze.

Beside him, Uchiha Itachi looked at Uchiha Yuan with a gloomy face.

"Yuan, you are the most outstanding descendant of the family; I hope Sasuke can also become your disciple."

Uchiha Fuyue said.

"Dad, I don't want to be his disciple; I have my brother to guide me."

Sasuke shouted unwillingly.

"Sasuke!"

Uchiha Fugaku's face darkened, and he stared at Sasuke and scolded him coldly.

Sasuke's neck suddenly shrank, fear appeared on his face, and he reached out and grabbed Uchiha Itachi's hand.

"Yuan, Sasuke is still young, don't take his words to heart."

Uchiha Fugaku turned around and said to Uchiha Yuan.
