I Am Fugaku Uchiha

Chapter 15: To Naka shrine



He had always thought of Mikoto as a stay-at-home mother who taught her children, not working ninja. How could she have any strong combat skills?

But She had already accepted the mission, and he still didn’t know what it was about. He couldn’t come up with any excuses to stop her from going.

She seemed confident and unfazed by the challenge, so he could only ask the two clan members to watch over her. As the two men followed him out, they caught a glimpse of his handsome face. They were speechless at first, but then they listened to his words and were utterly astonished.

"Clan leader, are you sure you said it right? We are only Chunin ninjas, but your wife is a Jonin ninja. Shouldn’t it be your wife who looks after us, not the other way around?"

"Huh?" Fugaku stopped in his tracks.  Mikoto was a Jonin Ninja. That impressive? He had no idea.

The situation was awkward for a moment, but he said, "You two, do you have any female partners?"

The two young men froze again and shook their heads in unison, wondering why the clan leader had asked them this.

Seeing their negative response, Fugaku felt more confident and said with a serious expression, "As men, you should always protect women, no matter what the situation is. If you don’t have this awareness, you will never find a partner, understand?"

"Uh, is that so?" The two men were confused, although they didn’t understand why he said that, and they had never heard something like that before. But they could infer what it meant, and it seemed logical.

They grew up as ninjas, and they became orphans at a young age, so they never learned anything about this, but his words opened their eyes.

Seeing this, the two men admired the clan leader even more. It was clear why he could charm Uchiha Mikoto out of her many suitors.

Mikoto also smiled at her husband and said, "Well, why don’t you hurry up to the Naka Shrine? We’ll go ahead."

"To the Naka Shrine?"

"Yes. You didn’t forget, did you? Yesterday was the graduation day for the academy, and there’s a bunch of clan kids who graduated waiting for you, the clan leader, to give them a speech today!" Mikoto gave him a weird look.

"Huh? Haha, my memory is failing me. Well, I’ll get ready, so you guys can go ahead." Fugaku chuckled and said goodbye to Mikoto before closing the door and entering the house.

He sighed in his heart; this was tricky. He didn’t have his memories, so it was easy to show flow. He shook his head helplessly and went to the bedroom. He opened a cabinet and saw a ninja vest and some ninja clothes inside. He took them out. Then he  put them on, as if it were natural for him.

Oh, it seemed that even though he has a new body, their is ligering "Fugaku" still influenced him. After putting on his gear, Fugaku took out a map and looked at it. He found the location of the Naka Shrine and left.

The Naka Shrine was on the edge of Konoha Village. Although the Uchiha had not separated from Konoha yet, this was their clan’s secret place. Only the Uchiha clan could enter. It was said that there was a mysterious stone inside, left behind by the legendary Sage, and only those with mangekyō sharingan could see what was on it. But Fugaku knew.

The stone had been tampered with by the Black Zetsu, so it didn’t matter if you looked at it or not.

"Clan leader…"

"Clan leader."

The seven or eight Uchiha clan members at the entrance saw Fugaku and greeted him.

Fugaku, who was getting used to it, nodded to them and continued to walk inside.

"Hey… The clan leader looks a bit different today."

"Yeah, He does."

A few people couldn’t figure it out. At this moment, on the open ground in front of the Naka Shrine, thirty children were chatting.

"The clan leader’s strength is amazing. Let me tell you, I saw it with my own eyes yesterday."

"Obito, you’re lying again. How could you possibly know the clan leader’s strength?"

"Yeah, are you training with the clan leader or going on a mission with him?"

"Well… Well…"

Obito looks of the Uchiha children skeptical expression. They clearly didn’t buy his story.

"Really, I’m not lying. Yesterday, when I had my genin exam, the clan leader came to the training ground to train." Obito flustered.

"Hahaha…"

"Hahahahaha…"

The crowd burst into laughter. Even the few adults guarding the area couldn’t help but laugh.

Obito was dumbfounded. "What are you guys laughing at?"

"Stupid Obito, with the clan leader’s strength, why would he need to go to the training ground to train?"

"That’s right. Please, next time you lie, at least make it believable."

"You guys… You guys are fine. Since you don’t believe me, you can ask him when he comes."

"Hey, the clan leader is here. Stop arguing."

As soon as they saw him, the twenty to thirty children straightened their postures and stood up.
