I Am Fugaku Uchiha

He knew Fugaku was powerful, but he doubted he could handle more than a handful of Uchiha clan members who had awakened their eyes, let alone the nearly five hundred who were gathered here. Among them, only thirty or so had activated their eyes, but the rest were not mere canon fodder or rogue ninjas.

They were all Uchiha elites. How could he not be shocked when this guy claimed he could take on all of them by himself?

Fugaku did not reply, but slowly walked to the opposite side of the crowd and said calmly, "Don't you want to know what I have been doing for the past six months? Then I will show you the results of my training.

"Training results??"

"Could it be that the clan leader..."

The crowd was taken aback and watched in awe as Fugaku put his left hand behind him, stretched out his right hand, and made a fighting gesture. He beckoned the four hundred and eighty-two ninja in front of him: "Come on, all of you..."

As he finished speaking, he flashed his Sharingan eyes, unleashing a dense aura. His immense chakra pressure made his hair and clothes flutter. The ground beneath him cracked, and the strong chakra pressure made everyone squint.

At that moment, everyone looked at Fugaku differently. Obito and Akihiko were unable to believe their eyes.

"The clan leader is displaying such incredible momentum," 

Akito and Kaito, unable to formulate coherent thoughts in response to the spectacle before them. It was evident that they were in awe of his prowess.

"Clan leader…?"

"Kaito… Are you kidding?"

"Let us proceed."

Without hesitation, Itsuki charged forward with full speed, eager to test his abilities against his powerful Uchiha clan leader. It was a test of skill and strength, with Itsuki determined to emerge victorious. One by one, more and more members of the clan followed suit, eager to test their own might against the leader's impressive strength.

"Scatter."

The nearly five hundred ninjas dispersed quickly, knowing that using ninjutsu, shuriken, and other weapons would only harm themselves.

Akihiko swiftly moved Obito away from the previous spot, while Obito watched the impending battle in the field with excitement and awe. In his eyes, Fugaku was simply too cool.

Initially, Itsuki was apprehensive about swords and injuring his clan leader, so much so that he refrained from unsheathing his knife. However, when he kicked out, he realized that his opponent was unfazed.

Instead, Fugaku's hand transformed into a claw, quickly grasping Itsuki's bare foot with an incredible amount of strength. He struggled to break free, but it was no use. The next thing Itsuki knew, he was being pulled towards Fugaku, where he was met with a powerful punch to the chest that sent him flying. As he lay on the ground, all he could hear was Fugaku's voice faintly speaking to him. "game over"

Despite feeling a bit indignant, Itsuki couldn't deny the fact that Fugaku's punch seemed to have no physical harm on him. However, before he could ponder this any further, the ground began to shake, and the mountains trembled as if an earthquake had struck.

He watched as Fugaku gathered chakra in his palm and punched the ground. The earth cracked in all directions within a radius of tens of meters, sending boulders flying. The range was so wide that many people couldn't react in time and lost their balance.

This was the result of Fugaku’s training based on Tsunade’s incredible raw strength and Chakra Enhanced Strength. After half a year, he had mastered chakra control that was no less than Tsunade’s.

Itsuki was layed in a daze in place, unable to move as he muttered, “How is this possible?” That strength he felt was comparable to that of one of the Sannin, Tsunade.

Being forty years old, Itsuki was certain that he wasn’t paranoid. If that punch had hit him, there would be nothing left of him. As he pondered this, he couldn’t help but wonder about the clan leader, who had flown himself out without causing any harm. It made him think about the extent of control one must have to pull off such a feat.

"If you can't move, get out of the ring by yourself." Fugaku said as he retreated.

This was just a spar, so being out of bounds was acceptable. If it were a real fight, he would just use large-scale ninjutsu. His punch just now sent dozens of people out of the ring.

The crowd started to use and threw shurikens and kunai at Fugaku.

“Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu.” Someone finally used ninjutsu against Fugaku, who had left the group.

For a moment, shurikens, kunai, and fireballs all flew towards Fugaku as he employed water style ninjutsu.

“Water Style: Water Wall.”

A water wall appeared out of nowhere and formed a nearly three-meter-thick and more than ten-meter-wide water wall. It blocked not only the fireball but also the shurikens and kunai that could not pierce through ordinary water walls.

This was near the foot of the mountain, where there was plenty of moisture in the air next to the forest. But even so, people were amazed by the power of this water wall and couldn’t help but gasp.

“Second Hokage…” Itsuki muttered. In his heart, he thought that only the Second Hokage could use such a powerful water style. The water wall faded away, leaving the whole open space soaked with water.

Fugaku’s silhouette emerged in the open space as he stood with both hands in a tiger seal and took a deep breath.

“Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu.”

He spat out a giant fireball with a radius of nearly ten meters that had enough power to blast the soil. It flew towards the crowd at high speed. The power of this fireball was unprecedented, except for Akihiko and Obito, who had seen it from afar. The people in front were stunned and didn’t react in time.

“Idiots. Move aside.” A few quick-witted people with Sharingan eyes swiftly moved to block the fireball.

“Water Style: Water Wall.”

“Water Style: Water Wall.”

“Water Style: Water Wave.”

It took three Uchiha clan members—all of them Sharingan—to counter Fugaku’s C-level grand fireball effectively. The fact that Fugaku had previously utilized a water wall made this possible since there was plenty of water around.

Fugaku’s display of power was awe-inspiring, and all his moves were smooth.
