I Am Fugaku Uchiha

Chapter 7: Have you seen enough ?



Hatake Sakumo is dead. This is crucial information. But what's happening with the Uchiha clan? What about their internal conflict?

I thought the Uchiha looked down on others. Why do you have such a sad expression? Fugaku didn’t have time to dwell on it because they had already arrived at the scene of the trouble.

It's a spacious izakaya, with separate dining tables and wooden barriers in the middle. But now, two tables near the door are smashed, and a crowd of curious residents is watching from afar. The shopkeeper stands at a safe distance, too afraid to speak up.

"Damn it… How dare you?" A wounded clan member in his thirties, blood dripping from his forhead and his chest bandaged, glares at the drunk Tsunade with resentment. He leans on two others for support.

She's a princess, but her status is higher than them, and they can’t fight back. he must be really furious. Fugaku didn’t intend to come over, but he was curious about Tsunade’s appearance.

"What happened here?" Fugaku asked and tried to act calm, observing the situation in ahead of him.

The injured clan member saw Fugaku approaching and greeted him, saying, "Clan leader, she hit me..."

"Hmm?" Fugaku was a bit confused by his tone, which sounded like a kindergarten child complaining to the teacher.

After listening to the clan members’ explanation, Fugaku finally understood what happened. They were all drinking here, and then this clan member started to badmouth the Senju clan.

He didn’t notice that Tsunade was sitting next to him. And Tsunade, who had a bit of alcohol in her system, punched him. She broke the wooden barrier, then kicked him away with another blow. She was really merciless, hitting someone and then calmly going back to her drink. She had both strength and status.

But how should I handle situation? Fugaku feels like a bystander at this moment, and he doesn’t want to get involved in this mess. He knows about the feud between the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan, but he can’t just ignore it since he is here.

He tapped the clan member’s shoulder: "You guys should leave now; I’ll handle it."

"Yes…" some clan members gave  Fugaku a pathetic look and almost said, "Clan leader, please get justice for us." They could guess that saying this would only make things worse.

"Saike, you tell them to disperse." Fugaku said this to him and walked towards Tsunade.

He didn’t sit directly across from her but carefully observed young Princess Tsunade, who was wearing civilian clothes, with fair skin and beautiful features, blond hair tied up behind her head, and a red dot on her forehead. The most eye-catching thing was her bust, which was really hard for any man to ignore.

"Have you seen enough?" Tsunade’s face was slightly flushed from the alcohol, and she noticed Fugaku’s gaze.

Fugaku sighed helplessly; it was just the natural reaction of a man, but he only looked at her for two extra seconds. Did she have to be so angry?

"I’m sorry; I apologize to you on his behalf." Fugaku picked up the wine bottle on the table, filled a cup for Tsunade, and then poured himself one, lifted the cup. He was very good at socializing over drinks. But as soon as he said, Saike, who had just dispersed the crowd, was shocked.

The clan leader actually apologized? What was going on? Even Tsunade, who was still scornful a moment ago, was surprised. But she was Tsunade, and she recovered: "Since you put it that way, fine. Forget it." The two clinked their cups then drink.

"Then, could you please help heal the wound of the one Tsunade-sama injured?" Fugaku asked. He didn’t know the name of the clan member who had just been beaten up, and he wasn’t sure if Tsunade was a medical ninja like he remembered, so his words were  vague.

Tsunade shrugged off, "His injury is nothing serious; Just go to the hospital and get some treatment, and tell him to watch his mouth."

"Well, I’m sorry to bother you; I’ll take my leave." Fugaku got up and left without wasting any time. it was a minor issue for him; since the injury was not serious and the two parties only had a verbal dispute, what was the big deal?

"Well, I’m sorry to bother you; I’ll take my leave." Uchiha Fugaku got up and left without wasting any time. This was a minor issue for him; since the injury was not serious and the two parties only had a verbal dispute, what was the big deal?

 Saike was still in shock, and when he saw Fugaku leaving, he followed and asked, "Clan leader, how could you apologize to her?"

"Huh? It’s just a trivial matter; what’s wrong with being humble and apologizing?" Fugaku looked puzzled.

Saike protested: "Of course it’s wrong; you are the clan leader of our Uchiha clan; she is from the Senju clan; you are apologizing to her; doesn’t that imply that we Uchiha are scared of them, Senju?"

The Uchiha and the Senju clan had such a deep-rooted conflict. It was hard to tell who was right or wrong in this matter; after all, one provoked  and the other would retaliated. He was just trying to be a mediator, and it was the best outcome. But he overlooked his own status.

Seeing the bitter Saike beside him, he finally smiled: "You are right, I understand, but Tsunade is now alone; she is also pitiful. Alright, you go do your work; I’ll go back."

Saike felt that the clan leader was acting differently today, but he couldn’t pinpoint how. After leaving, Fugaku let out a sigh.

The reason he acted like that just now was not only because he wanted to be a peacemaker but also because he had no chance of defending Tsunade at all.

He was unfamiliar with the abilities he had just gained. However, he learned a lot of information from this trip, and he didn’t feel like going to the training ground.

When he returned home, he saw that Mikoto was actually sleeping in the bedroom, and Fugaku didn’t bother her; he went to the living room, laid on the tatami, and took out the pendant and looked at it.

"Could this be a device to travel to another world?" Fugaku wondered, but he was a soul transmigrant; how could he bring this with him? Or was this the cheat he got after he came over?

its real deal; Mikoto found it on the bed this morning. It can’t belong to Uchiha Mikoto, because only she and I live in this huge house. It must be mine. I remember seeing a similar pendant when I was a guide at the Yasukuni Shrine in Japan.

Fugaku racked his brains but couldn’t figure out a clue. He realized he had been stuck here for a while. What was he supposed to do? Konoha Village seemed like the safest place in the world, but Fugaku knew that it's hidden dangers, especially for the Uchiha clan.

Based on the information he just received, Kakashi was only 8 years old. That meant it was the year 42 of Konoha’s calendar, and the Tsunade he met earlier was around 31 or 32 years old.

He remembered that the third Shinobi World War had not started yet, but it would soon. That meant that if he didn’t go back within a year, would he have to participate in the war?

 He knew that the Third Ninja World War would start in less than a year. Could he avoid it? Of course not.

The third hokage, Danzo, and other high-ranking people would all keep an eye on him. Besides, his current identity as the clan leader would not allow him to hide like a coward, right? Could he hope that this pendant would take him back?
