Yishū vs. Fugaku

Chapter 40: Kazuki vs. Fugaku

Fugaku's Residence.

Uchiha Fugaku had just seen Setsuna off and brewed himself another cup of tea, taking a comfortable sip.

Talking with Setsuna, that old fox, was no easy task.

The old man who had followed Uchiha Madara and survived Tobirama Senju had a deep mind.

Fugaku had to be cautious, as one wrong step could lead to his downfall.

Now that the other party was gone, Fugaku breathed a sigh of relief.

Who would have thought...

"...Why are you standing so close?"

Fugaku's face darkened as he walked step by step into the inner lake, standing on the surface of the water.

Uchiha Kazuki, this guy was indeed different from other Uchihas.

Fugaku sneered and said, "Where did you get such 'accurate' information? Heh heh, my son wants to kill me?"

"How is that possible?"

White smoke rose, leaving behind a wooden log.

He snorted angrily and turned to leave.

Immediately after, hearing Kazuki's words, he could no longer hold back.

"Fine!"

Fugaku's eyes blazed with anger.

Substitution Technique!

Fugaku reappeared behind Kazuki.

Damn it, I can't stand this anymore!

"What are you doing?" Kazuki asked in surprise. "Patriarch, I came to you and revealed such a big secret because I want to make a deal with you. My time is precious, as you know. My shop just opened and I have quite a few customers."

"Water Clone Jutsu?"

Judging by Kazuki's strength in dealing with over ten Root ninja not long ago, Fugaku might not win even if he went all out. He naturally couldn't hold back in the fight.

Good heavens!

These words seemed full of anger, but why did they feel like he was showing weakness?

Fugaku said coldly, "Let's spar in the inner lake. If you can defeat me, I'll agree to your demands. If you can't, hehe!"

As for the demands... Would I lose?

Even if there was a slim chance, words alone were not proof.

Fugaku: "..."

"Bang!"

Fugaku opened the door and roared at Kazuki, "Can you just pity us a little?"

"Boom!"

This little guy with bandages on his face had directly attacked him just now, controlled him, and brought him here.

"Me?" Setsuna's interest was piqued. "You want me to use these eyes? Aren't you worried? Uchiha Setsuna is a dangerous person, that's recognized by Konoha."

If you have the ability, why don't you deal with him?

And...

He looked around and found that Kazuki had already disappeared.

Kazuki's body turned into water.

"Kazuki, how are these eyes of yours?"

Normally, people would subconsciously lower their voices when passing by.

The two walked towards the inner lake together.

On the way.

Three kunai flew from his palm.

"Pfft, pfft, pfft!"

"...Why are you standing so close?"

It was worth his effort to prepare so much to win him over.

He had still underestimated Kazuki!

The Great Fireball he unleashed had a diameter of over twenty meters.

If I believed that, I'd be an idiot.

It was like looking at oneself in a mirror.

Does anyone in the entire Konoha wish for your shop to prosper?

Hmm, the other four ninja villages outside of Konoha would probably hope it prospers.

The next moment!

"Pfft!"

Fugaku versus Kazuki!

He wanted to see the strength of these two.

Both spoke at the same time.

But!

Setsuna: "..."

The servants followed suit.

Fugaku had never underestimated Kazuki, so he went all out from the start.

Many Uchiha Jonin choose to train powerful Ninjutsu here or spar with each other.

The clan head doesn't necessarily mean the strongest!

Kazuki turned his head, looked at Setsuna, and said with a smile, "Elder, how about being a witness?"

At the same time, Kazuki made the same move.

Setsuna nodded with pleasure.

So much so that Fugaku couldn't even block it.

"If you don't hurry, I'm afraid Itachi will regret it."

"Slap!"

Setsuna was stunned, then burst into laughter.

Uchiha Mikoto was also a quiet person.

But!

Fugaku felt his fists getting harder and harder.

"Hmph, Fugaku, you will regret this."

"Whoosh!"

He spat out the tea, got up angrily, and strode out.

At this point, the difference became apparent.

"Clan head, the intelligence I obtained is absolutely true!" Kazuki patted his chest and promised, "Itachi really harbors ill intentions towards you."

How strong is he?

Two Great Fireball Techniques were unleashed and collided.

Fugaku quickly formed hand seals: "Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"

What he said made a lot of sense.

He was actually subdued by Kazuki with ease.

This was a large lake within the Uchiha compound.

A howl echoed, and Fugaku's eyes widened.

The size difference was a full double!

As a result, Fugaku's Great Fireball was directly shattered.

Fugaku was stunned.

As for the meaning behind Kazuki's words... Itachi intended to kill him.

Setsuna's expression was unreadable.

Extremely serene.

Heh heh!

That's why Kazuki's howl was so abrupt.

The inner lake!

Kazuki followed closely behind him with a smile.

The kunai accurately pierced Kazuki's back.

"Excellent! It suits me perfectly." Kazuki said with a smile, "Elder Setsuna, keep the pair of eyes you have for yourself. It's best if you use them yourself. I believe you are the most suitable person."

"Don't you believe me!" Kazuki said urgently, "Clan head, you have no idea how much effort I put into persuading Itachi to agree to personally strike you down."

"Kazuki, I am the clan head!"

Good heavens!

Copying and predicting with the Sharingan, you're using it here?

You haven't adapted to those transplanted eyes yet, have you?

What a joke, a thriving business!

The two of them, aside from their height, had different builds, but their movements were astonishingly similar.

Kazuki said with a smile, "Elder Setsuna, don't you think the more the Third Hokage and the others oppose something, the more we should support it?"

Agreeing so easily, he's too confident in himself.

"Really? That simple?" Kazuki asked in surprise. "All I have to do is beat you? It's as simple as writing 'one'."

"Where is he?"

The Great Fireball Technique Kazuki unleashed had a diameter of nearly fifty meters.

Fugaku's expression grew grim as his figure was engulfed by Kazuki's Great Fireball.

Although he was getting older and his strength was declining, his power ranked among the Uchiha.

Only a cold voice remained in the air.

Setsuna stared at Kazuki.

Fugaku took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, "Kazuki, come with me!"

When Fugaku turned around, he saw Kazuki less than a meter away from him.

That's my son!

"Kazuki, can't you just settle down for a few days!"

"That's right!"

Setsuna inquired.

Uchiha Fugaku, as the clan head, his residence might not be the best within the Uchiha compound, but it was definitely in the best environment.

If I don't beat you soundly, I won't feel satisfied.

Setsuna, watching from the shore, couldn't hold back and shouted, "Fugaku, haven't you fought in so long that you've become this slow? If he's not on the water, then he's underwater!"

As the words fell, a hand emerged from the water, reaching for Fugaku.
