Fugaku's Decision! Expulsion from Uchiha

"Father."

"I want to talk to you."

During dinner.

Chuan Yu suddenly spoke.

After taking a sip of sake.

Fugaku's face was slightly flushed.

He was stunned for a moment.

Then he looked at Chuan Yu with confusion.

"Mmm..."

"Just say what you want to talk about."

Chuan Yu didn't speak.

He simply drew the Uchiha clan crest on the table with a finger dipped in sake.

Fugaku hesitated for a moment.

Then he looked at Chuan Yu with a frown.

"I'm a bit tired today."

With that, Fugaku got up and prepared to return to his room.

"Have you considered the consequences?"

Just as Fugaku was getting up.

Chuan Yu suddenly spoke.

Fugaku fell silent.

Mikoto, busy in the kitchen, sensed something was wrong.

She wiped her hands on her apron and hurried out.

She saw Fugaku with his back to Chuan Yu.

The two were locked in a stalemate.

And faintly.

Fugaku's thoughts about Chuan Yu had already begun to change.

"You're like Itachi back then..."

"Do you really want to know?"

Fugaku slowly turned around and sat down cross-legged.

"Now the opportunity has come."

"The Uchiha can legitimately gain control of Konoha."

"Chuan Yu, shouldn't you be happy?"

Chuan Yu looked up into Fugaku's eyes.

Those blood-red eyes were now filled with power.

He had changed.

"Father."

"Have you forgotten why the Uchiha staged a coup?"

Chuan Yu's words were like a hammer.

They struck Fugaku's heart fiercely.

Chuan Yu continued.

"It would have been fine if the Uchiha had acted like normal people from the start."

"But it's been like this for decades."

"Does Father truly believe that Konoha will acknowledge the Uchiha in just five years?"

"Slaughter begets slaughter."

"We have already secured excellent conditions."

"The authorities are blind."

"If you touch that position."

"Konoha will have no peace..."

After Chuan Yu finished speaking.

Fugaku, before him, had already changed his expression.

This expression carried too many emotions.

There was disappointment.

Disappointment in Chuan Yu's stance.

There was resolve.

An affirmation that the Uchiha's great momentum had arrived.

But more than anything.

There was sadness.

This sadness was no different from betrayal.

In the current situation.

The position of Hokage.

Was within reach.

How could he give it up now!

"Chuan Yu..."

Fugaku paused.

Then he stared intently at Chuan Yu's cheek with a very serious gaze.

"You are Shisui's brother."

"Kagami's son."

"The current faith of the Uchiha!"

"Swear on your Eternal Mangekyo!"

"You are on my side, aren't you?"

Watching the increasingly frantic Fugaku.

Chuan Yu smiled.

He did not respond to Fugaku.

He picked up a tissue and wiped his mouth.

Then he got up and left.

Seeing Chuan Yu leave.

The wine glass in Fugaku's right hand suddenly shattered.

Mikoto rushed out.

"What are you so angry about!"

"Chuan Yu is still a child."

"Can't you talk things out slowly!"

Taking out a medical kit.

Mikoto knelt beside Fugaku and bandaged his wounds.

Fugaku suddenly gave a bitter smile.

He looked towards the doorway and shook his head helplessly.

"It's already too late..."

"Too late..."

That night.

A meeting was convened again at the Uchiha Shrine.

Fugaku turned his attention to Chuan Yu.

Whether it was Shisui or Itachi.

They all had one thing in common.

Including Chuan Yu.

This reminded Fugaku of the first time he saw Chuan Yu five years ago.

Tears gradually moistened his eyes.

But for the future of the Uchiha, was there anything wrong?

The next day.

Hokage Building.

Mito Mon'en and Tajima Koharu were selecting the next Hokage for Konoha.

Suddenly.

Hundreds of Uchiha clansmen appeared from all around.

They were fully armed.

And then they surrounded the Hokage Building.

Tajima Koharu looked down from the window.

Everyone immediately panicked.

"Shimura and Hiruzen have already left."

"I'm afraid no one can suppress the Uchiha anymore..."

"Is this all Konoha has become?"

Tajima Koharu and Mito Mon'en slowly walked down the stairs.

The Uchiha clansmen parted.

Fugaku stepped forward.

"I don't need to say more, do I?"

At this moment, the faces of the Uchiha clansmen were beaming with smiles.

They had waited too long for this day.

"Wait a moment."

Suddenly.

Chuanyu's figure appeared on the opposite rooftop.

Fugaku frowned deeply upon seeing Chuanyu appear.

"Father."

"Have you truly thought this through?"

Chuanyu looked at Fugaku, his face filled with anticipation.

Fugaku slowly clenched his fists, his body trembling slightly.

After a period of internal struggle.

He finally responded to Chuanyu with a resolute gaze.

"Uchiha Chuanyu..."

"From today onwards..."

"You are no longer a member of my Uchiha!"

"Effective immediately!"

"You are expelled from the Uchiha!"

It was like a bolt from the blue.

The last sentence echoed in Chuanyu's mind.

He couldn't believe that Uchiha Fugaku, whom he had always respected, would say such a thing.

At this moment.

His heart turned to ash.

It was as if nothing mattered anymore.

Or perhaps, in losing everything, he had found release.

Chuanyu felt his heart bleeding.

He finally understood Shisui's despair at that time.

"Hahaha... Hahahahaha..."

Chuanyu suddenly burst into painful laughter.

"Nothing matters anymore..."

"I'll call you Father one last time."

"Just let me leave this hopeless place."

"This dim and lightless Konoha..."

"Has no roots anymore..."

Chuanyu turned and disappeared before everyone's eyes.

Now.

He wanted to see Sasuke one more time.

Then he would leave Konoha.

As for where he would go.

Chuan Yu hadn't really thought about it.

However.

Wandering the world sounded pretty good.

But unfortunately.

Sasuke had gone on a mission with Kakashi.

He stood on the Hokage Rock, gazing into the distance.

The afterglow of the setting sun.

The evening clouds reflected in the sky.

A breeze carrying the scent of herbs brushed against his cheek.

At this moment.

Chuan Yu stretched lazily.

"I've been watching you for a long time."

A voice suddenly came from behind him.

Chuan Yu turned his head to look.

He saw Jiraiya walking slowly towards him.

"I heard your story from the people in the village."

"You're truly young and promising."

Jiraiya praised Chuan Yu with a smile.

"What's the point?"

"I'm leaving here soon."

After hearing Chuan Yu's words.

Jiraiya awkwardly scratched his hair.

"Some things..."

"just happen naturally."

"But if you can't figure it out."

"it just means you're not looking deeply enough."

"Why try to stop what has already happened?"

"Wouldn't it be better to think about what you'll face in the future?"

Jiraiya's words suddenly invigorated Chuan Yu.

No matter when it was.

He would always face only one outcome.

It was better to look beyond that outcome and see the scenery that followed.

Unburdened by his worries.

Chuan Yu suddenly felt much more cheerful.

"Alright."

"I'm leaving."

He stood up and bowed to Jiraiya.

Chuan Yu turned and left.
