Today, I'm returning to the Uchiha compound.
The Uchiha Clan hasn't been forced to relocate to a remote area yet, so the clan compound is still quite large, practically a village within a village.
Konoha's three major clans, the Uchiha, Hyuga, and Senju, all lived in a clan-style manner due to their large numbers, forming these village-like settlements.
It's just that later on...
The Senju Clan is no more for various reasons, leaving behind only empty houses. If Tsunade hadn't sold them, they might have lasted until Boruto: Naruto Next Generations and she could have become a landlord. Unlike the Uchiha... everything was confiscated. The sole heir of the Uchiha actually had to pay a mortgage in the end.
Therefore.
What a prodigal son!
A prodigal son with no skills in being a prodigal son at all. Every time he sees his older brother's child, he wants to beat them severely!
Couldn't anything be discussed properly?
Killing Danzō Shimura and betraying the village would have been better than your clan's annihilation.
As for the Sarutobi Clan... they really made a splash during the Fourth Great Ninja War, even more so than the only remaining major clan at the time – the Hyuga Clan!
The more I think about it, the angrier I get. The angrier I get, the more I want to ruffle this two-year-old brat.
At such a young age, what else could he do but become a shinobi?
Is being a shinobi something you can just do?
Uchiha Fuyou narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "Itachi! Children need to eat more. At least seven cups of milk tea, six bags of chips, and five hamburgers a day! Here, these are new snacks from the shop. Don't be shy. I'll have people deliver them to you every day. Look at you... you've gotten so thin."
"Thank you... Uncle," Itachi, still naive and unscarred by war, said as Fuyou ruffled his face.
He only knew that Uncle Fuyou brought him delicious food.
It's just that there's always a bit too much!
He truly doesn't know the wickedness of the world. Some roommates and best friends are like this... eat, eat, eat. If you get fat, it means I've gotten thinner!
How insidious!
However.
Uchiha Fugaku, who had been ignored, raised an eyebrow and said calmly, "The Uchiha Clan is not the Akimichi Clan!"
Or rather... even the kids from the Akimichi Clan wouldn't eat so much at one or two years old!
Are you really raising him like a pig?
The Akimichi Clan can store that much food as energy using their clan's secret techniques. In times of danger, combined with secret medicines and techniques, they can unleash terrifying power in an instant!
So.
Fugaku crossed his arms and looked at Itachi with a stern, fatherly expression, "To become an excellent shinobi, you must have a reasonable diet!"
"I know!" Itachi said seriously, like a little adult, "Father!"
No wonder he understood the true meaning of peace after seeing war at four years old and was praised for having the thinking of a Hokage at six... It's really not good for boys to mature too early!
"Brother, that's just old-fashioned thinking," Fuyou said seriously to Fugaku, speaking earnestly. "Nowadays, we emphasize a relaxed education, letting children develop freely. But you... you won't even let him eat snacks. Big brother, the more you hold back, the more likely something bad will happen. Why don't you let your brother teach him?" He patted Itachi's back, showing a [kind] smile. "I guarantee I'll cultivate my great-nephew into a pillar of the Uchiha Clan!"
After speaking.
"Heh," Fugaku let out a disdainful snort. His expressionless face was full of contempt, but he said nothing.
As for relaxed education...
This is the Ninja World!
There is only the power of life and death. If you want to enjoy freedom, you must possess immense strength. Otherwise... it's a dead end!
He took a sip of hot tea, calmly glanced at Fuyou, who had "taken the wrong path," and said nothing more.
What's the point of having so much money?
Won't you still be at the mercy of others in the end?
Uchiha Fuyou ignored him, got a cup of milk tea for Itachi, and then watched him drink with a smile.
Itachi, being a child, also started drinking the milk tea under his uncle's friendly smile and his father's lack of objection.
Actually, it tasted pretty good.
It's just that his father didn't let him drink it all day.
And the chips and hamburgers tasted good too.
He was small, like a groundhog, but unlike other children, he didn't make a mess everywhere. He was quite quiet.
You know, Obito... he still eats like a child even now.
Thinking of Obito's antics the other day, Uchiha Fuyou's mouth twitched again.
Uchiha Obito.
What a character!
I heard Kakashi and Might Guy still haven't been discharged from the hospital.
Figuring it was about time, Uchiha Fuyou stood up and looked at Rin, who was chatting with Mikoto-nee, and said, "It's getting late. We should be going."
The words fell.
"There's a clan meeting tonight," Uchiha Fugaku said, putting down his teacup. His usually stoic face creased slightly as he looked at him. "Aren't you attending?"
"No! I've already been kicked out of the Uchiha clan, so why would I attend an Uchiha clan meeting?" Uchiha Fuyou said cheerfully. "Besides, the bonfire party isn't that interesting, so I won't go join the fun."
Every year, the Uchiha held a clan meeting to strengthen the bonds between the different branches of the family.
It usually involved honoring ancestors, dancing, and a bit of bragging. And it had to be said, the Uchiha clan dance looked quite interesting.
Unmatched in its power!
Of course, later on.
When the Nine-Tails' attack ignited the conflict, and the tensions escalated, the clan meetings turned into complaint sessions, where they'd secretly badmouth the Third Hokage.
Of course.
It hadn't reached that point yet.
During the Third Shinobi World War.
The Uchiha were still the Uchiha!
Konoha's prestigious family!
Other ancient clans also had similar family festivals. For example, the Hyuga clan... According to Rin, they also held clan meetings periodically to discuss matters. At the same time, the Hyuga main family held a grand birthday celebration for their children at the age of three. At that time, ordinary matters would not be allowed to interfere with the main family's third birthday celebration.
It was extremely important.
The words fell.
Fugaku let out another cold snort but didn't say anything more. He lowered his head expressionlessly and continued to drink his tea.
On the other hand, Mikoto gave a helpless smile and said gently, "Won't you stay for a meal?"
"No, thank you," Fuyou said, shaking his head cheerfully.
He had just come back to visit.
Then.
After greeting Rin and saying he had disturbed them, he was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something. He stopped and directly pulled out another stack of money, stuffing it into Itachi's hands, who looked at him with confusion. "Here! Take this! This is your uncle's pocket money. Buy whatever you want, don't mind your dad!"
"..."
This guy really is...
Fugaku's mouth twitched, and he raised an eyebrow, snorting coldly, "Get lost already!"
"Alright! Fugaku, don't keep that grumpy face all day, it's bad for your health. If you're feeling down, tell me, and I'll take you out to have some fun next time to relax!"
"..."
Who would go to a place like that?
Fugaku looked speechlessly at Fuyou, who had slipped away. A moment later, his expressionless face shook his head helplessly again, muttering, "This brat." Then, he glanced calmly at Mikoto beside him.
Instantly.
Mikoto understood. She gave another helpless smile, stood up, and walked over to Itachi. She gently stroked Itachi's head as he looked at the money in his hands and said softly, "Itachi, you're still young..."
Meanwhile.
After leaving the patriarch's place, Uchiha Fuyou and Rin walked outside. People along the way kept calling out to him, "Young Master Fuyou!" It was quite pleasant to hear.
Even though he had been expelled from the Uchiha clan, as the younger brother of the current patriarch and a wealthy man, he still held considerable prestige within the clan.
However.
At this moment.
After walking for a short while, Uchiha Fuyou suddenly pulled Rin along and then smiled at the hunched-over elder in front of him, saying, "Second Elder, is there something you need from Fuyou?"
Seeking votes! Why aren't these votes increasing and even going down?
