I Am Fugaku Uchiha

Fugaku tapped his shoulder. "Don't think about that now. We have a bigger problem."

"Oh? What problem?" Akihiko was curious and listened to him.

"Obito, go to the training ground and wait for me. I'll teach you some ninjutsu later." Though Fugaku didn't respond, he spoke carefully to the young Obito.

With his innocent and trusting nature, ten-year-old Obito eagerly nodded in excitement before dashing off to the training ground in mere seconds.

After Obito left, he spoke: "My strength must have caught the attention of the Konoha top brass. They may not make any hasty moves for the time being, but I can't say how long that will continue."

"What are you implying?

"What do you think of the contradiction between Uchiha and the upper echelon of Konoha?" Fugaku asked instead of answering.

It was the first time he brought up this issue with Akihiko. Akihiko pondered for a while and said, "I'm not sure about anything else, but I think the Hokage position should have belonged to Uchiha."

"You are right, but unfortunately, I don't want to be Hokage. What should I do?" Fugaku agreed with Akihiko's thoughts.

[A/n: he jinxes himself]

Fugaku recalls that the Tsuchikage was highly proficient in earth release, the Raikage in lightning release, and the Mizukage in water release. The leaders of other nations were equally deserving of their respective roles. Only in the Land of Fire were any of the Hokages good at fire release.

This was also why the Uchiha clan was always dissatisfied with Konoha's leadership. The Uchiha were known for their proficiency in fire release, yet none had ever become hokage in the Land of Fire.

In other countries, the Uchiha clan was a joke. As a clan of geniuses, how could the Uchiha endure such ridicule?

The first Hokage was an exception since he and Uchiha Madara founded Konoha together. Nonetheless, the succeeding Hokage from the Senju clan, known as the second Hokage, exerted brutal control over the Uchiha, leaving them with no capacity to retaliate.

But now that the third Hokage is surnamed Sarutobi, the Uchiha clan can no longer tolerate it. However, due to the harsh suppression during the second Hokage's reign, the Uchiha lacked the strength to resist.

Now that he has demonstrated his strength, the Uchiha are eager to act, and the leaders of Konoha are even more afraid. On the surface, it seems that he has brought this conflict to a head prematurely. But in reality, this is also an opportunity to save the Uchiha.

"You don't want to be Hokage? Why not?" he demanded, baffled by Fugaku's reasoning. Akihiko couldn't believe what Fugaku said.  After all, the position of hokage was highly esteemed in the Land of Fire; it was the epitome of honor and the dream of many ninja in Konoha.

Fugaku's display of strength had made him a strong contender for the position, so Akihiko simply couldn't comprehend why he would pass up such an opportunity.

But Fugaku simply laughed at Akihiko's question. "What's the point of being Hokage?" he said with a sly grin.

"Hokage? Ha, what's the point?" He laughed and flashed a mysterious grin. He was a fun-loving guy, even in his past life as a Japanese tour guide.

He had always been one to seek out adventure, even in his past life as a Japanese tour guide. His greatest desire was to indulge in thrilling outdoor activities such as hiking, rock climbing, and skiing, all of which he had never experienced before.

Ever since he arrived in his new world with the physique of an Aries, Fugaku has only become more adventurous and daring. The mere thought of being chained to a desk, buried under piles of mundane paperwork, or worse yet, being the hokage, left him feeling suffocated.

He found true joy in exploring the great outdoors and pushing himself to his limits—a lifestyle that was both exhilarating and liberating.

Akihiko sighed and shook his head: "Stop beating around the bush. What's your goal?"

Fugaku grinned and spread his arms wide: "I want to make the Uchiha clan famous in the ninja world."

Akihiko gazed at Fugaku in disbelief as his aura had an effect on everyone, compelling them to worship him.

"I need you to form a special team, a team that can control the Uchiha clan members. I'll give you the rules for the Uchiha clan soon. Just do as they say and make sure the clan members who are on missions know them too. This task is your responsibility. As for the upper echelons of Konoha, I will handle it." Fugaku paid no head to him and made his requests.

"Understood!"

Fugaku gazed at a small hill in the faraway forest and smiled: "I won't forget my vow to you!"

...…....

Hokage Building Conference Room. Four people sat around the table, their expressions serious.

Danzo glared at the third hokage and said, "Uchiha Fugaku is more cunning than we thought. How should we deal with him?"

Danzo had not gone to see the open space. The area, equivalent in size to a large football field, was unrecognizable. The ground was cracked over a large area, and there was still a smell of fire in the air. He thought to himself that he couldn't do this.

The Third Hokage responded with a question instead of an answer: "What do you think we should do?"

"Before they have a chance to react, let's wipe them all out," Danzo said coldly.

"No, that will only bring more trouble," the Third Hokage replied.

"Hmph, you're always so indecisive. It's not too late to act now. Your strength can hold him off while our two teams of Anbu launch a surprise attack. We can definitely wipe out the entire Uchiha clan," Danzo said, looking at Sarutobi with frustration.

The Third Hokage took a deep breath and said, "Since he chose to reveal his strength, it proves that he has no intention of rebelling. We can observe for a while before making a decision."

Danzo wanted to say something but was interrupted by someone else.

"Hmm, Sarutobi is right. If he really wanted to rebel, he would have chosen to continue hiding his strength and wait for his clan members to gather before launching an uprising. "

Koharu Utatane nodded her head, obviously agreeing with his opinion.

Danzo  wanted to say something, but seeing that everyone else had spoken, he opened his mouth, but nothing came out. He could only look them in resentment.
