Fugaku Uchiha

New book, I Learn Skills Through Short Videos, is now published.

Watching the anime playing on the computer in front of him, Wang Yue sighed, as it was currently showing the scenes right before Fugaku Uchiha's death.

As the dignified Uchiha Clan Leader of Konoha's Strongest clan, who would have thought it would end in such tragedy, dying at the hands of his own son?

He fulfilled his son, yet doomed his clan.

Wang Yue's thoughts swirled. Although this was not his first time watching Naruto, every time he saw Fugaku Uchiha die, he still felt deeply emotional.

Konoha's Strongest clan, one of the founders of Konoha, wielders of the Sharingan—the Uchiha ended up facing the fate of clan extermination. One could only sigh that Fugaku Uchiha was unqualified as a clan head.

Perhaps Fugaku was a good father, but he was not a good clan head, leaving only Sasuke as the sole surviving seedling of the long-inherited Uchiha.

Wang Yue sighed for a moment and shut down the computer. Outside, the sky was dim, dark clouds covered the sky, and gusts of cool breeze blew in through the open window.

The somewhat drowsy Wang Yue instantly felt much more awake.

After taking a shower and lying down in bed, he gradually drifted off to sleep.

In the dead of night, Wang Yue's consciousness suddenly snapped awake. He wanted to get up from the bed, only to find that his body could not move at all.

He only felt his consciousness sinking infinitely, as if about to fall into an abyss. All around was pitch black, murky and chaotic.

He wanted to open his eyes and look around, but could only vaguely sense a terrifying darkness engulfing him.

Wang Yue thought of the sleep paralysis he had experienced a few times, which bore quite a few similarities to his current situation.

Wang Yue concentrated his consciousness, wanting to twitch a finger to break the sleep paralysis. As long as he could move just one part, his entire body would slowly recover.

Suddenly, a sharp pain shot into Wang Yue's mind, feeling as though another person was constantly drilling into his head.

The intense pain felt as if it were going to compress two people's brains into one.

He had never heard of sleep paralysis causing abnormal brain pain.

Wang Yue felt his clothes were already soaked through. Illusions ran wild in his mind, and countless images flashed past.

Grotesque and bizarre, lacking head or tail and completely devoid of logic, they flashed before his eyes like a fast-forwarding slide show. His drowsy, aching brain simply could not concentrate enough to see the contents of the visuals clearly.

Wang Yue's heart was filled with terror at that moment, utterly clueless about his current situation, fearing that once he fell into the abyss, it would mean true death.

The pain in his head did not last long; it gradually faded, and his plummeting consciousness also stopped. Wang Yue breathed a sigh of relief. His body was completely exhausted, and wave after wave of sleepiness washed over him, causing him to sink into a deep sleep once again.

At this time, Wang Yue had no inkling whatsoever that the place he was sleeping in was no longer his original world.

Early in the morning, Wang Yue furrowed his brow in his sleep and opened his heavy eyes.

The ceiling was white, with a simple lightbulb hanging from it, devoid of any designed touches.

Wang Yue glanced over the room's layout—a typical Japanese design.

His body still felt somewhat heavy, likely due to last night's ordeal which left his body unrecovered.

He raised both hands and took a look. Completely different from his original rough, thirty-something hands, they appeared much more tender and youthful.

A wave of dizziness mixed with pain surged from Wang Yue's head.

Wang Yue clutched his head, patted it gently a couple of times, and shook his still-aching head. A set of memories that did not belong to him surfaced in Wang Yue's mind.

Fugaku Uchiha, a member of the Uchiha, whose father was the current Uchiha Clan Leader, Uchiha Tenjo, serving as the Security Force captain.

To think that after lamenting Fugaku's life last night, he would transmigrate into Fugaku himself the next day.

Fortune plays tricks on people, and nothing could be truer.

Ever since the Second Hokage, the Uchiha had been excluded from Konoha's center of power and assigned to establish the Security Force.

Many Uchiha clan members felt immensely proud of this, never suspecting that the Security Force was merely the fuse used to isolate the Uchiha.

Fugaku had graduated from the Ninja Academy at age ten and had already graduated three years ago.

Since I've transmigrated into Fugaku Uchiha, let me lead the Uchiha out of the predicament of extermination.

Fugaku began sorting through the information of the original Fugaku in his mind. At only thirteen years of age, Fugaku Uchiha grasped a tremendous amount of situations, and as the clan head's son, he had already begun contacting some covert intelligence.

Ever since the last Shinobi World War, nations had been burying their heads in development, presenting a rare scene of peace in the Shinobi World.

In Fugaku Uchiha's view, peace was merely a facade. Recently, large and small nations across the Shinobi World had been growing restless with undercurrents surging.

Elite ninja from various nations constantly probed for intelligence from other countries and assassinated important personnel.

As the son of the Uchiha Clan Head, Fugaku Uchiha knew far more than others.

The Security Force had recently arrested multiple spies from other nations, most of whom were in disguise as ordinary people to scout out the specific circumstances of Konoha shinobi.

A portion of them also came to Konoha to carry out assassination tasks, murdering key members of the village while manufacturing chaos along the way.

Konoha's senior officials were already beginning to prepare for the upcoming Shinobi World War.

In Fugaku Uchiha's view, the peace of the Shinobi World could not be maintained for much longer, and a Shinobi World War could erupt at any moment.

In present-day Konoha, although the senior officials ostracized the Uchiha, things had not yet reached a dire state.

More than twenty years since Konoha's founding, although Uchiha clan members were proud and had offended quite a few people, the merits they had accumulated as Security Force members were also substantial.

Shimura Danzō, who held the greatest grievances against the Uchiha, had not yet reached the unhinged state he would attain after the Third War.

Since he had become Fugaku Uchiha, the upcoming Shinobi World War would be the opportune moment for the Uchiha to cast off their doomed fate and rise to prominence.

Fugaku Uchiha stood up and slid the door open. The morning light shone on his youthful face, and he squinted.

The Uchiha of the present was like the rising morning sun. Though tender and young, as long as it received proper guidance, it could emit boundless brilliance and illuminate the shinobi world.

Cool running water splashed continually over Fugaku's face, clearing his dizzy mind.

He changed into the clothes he usually wore for training and checked his Ninja Tool Pouch: several kunai, shuriken, and some small sundries like steel wire.

He hung the Ninja Tool Pouch in place and walked out of his small courtyard. Outside the gate lay a bluestone path leading straight into the village.

On both sides of the road were households of Uchiha. Fugaku looked around, finding it practically a village within a village.

Most everyday commodities and restaurants found in Konoha were present here. The shopkeepers were all clansmen without ninja talent or those who had retired from ninja positions, earning a living by selling small wares.

At the founding of Konoha, the Uchiha did not yet have a Uchiha District and lived mixed together with the villagers of Konoha.

Ever since Madara Uchiha left and later fought a decisive battle with First Hokage Hashirama Senju at the Valley of the End, not long after which the First Hokage passed away from illness, the Second Hokage used this as an excuse to gather all the Uchiha clansmen and relocate them entirely to a newly designated Uchiha District in the corner of the village.
