Chapter 225: Fugaku's Reappearance of Ambition

Hatake House.

Kakashi and Yukito sat in one corner of the room and the other in the opposite corner.

The room was dark and unlit.

The Two-Tails Jinchuriki and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki were sent back to Konoha Village and the seal was strengthened.

Although the war is over, the issue of compensation cannot be discussed in a day or two, nor is it something that Nara Shikaku can completely decide.

Most of the issues had to wait until the new Fourth Hokage took office before they could be resolved, so both the two jinchūriki were pulled back, and the Fourth Hokage Ai had no idea what to do. After all, he didn't know that Kawazo could not rise again, and that Kozo had retreated.

Killer Bee was being beaten in the Anbu, and Yuukito was sent to the Hatake residence because of what happened on Mount Kikyo.

Kakashi was furious when he saw Yuukito squatting in the corner with his legs hugged.

"It's all your fault that Chuan Zang can't wake up!"

Yuukito was already feeling aggrieved, and after hearing what Kakashi said, he felt even more aggrieved.

My fault? Sichuan-Tibet? Do you want to listen to what you are saying!?

Were you blind when that devil pinned me down in Platycodon Mountain and beat me up?

Open your dead fish eyes and look! You don’t even want to come out again!

But Kakashi doesn't reason with women. He is even more unreasonable than women now. In short, it's all their fault that Kawanzo is like this.

He ran to his room angrily, took out the wolfberries that Chuan Zang had left for him and made a pot of tea.

Not to mention, drinking wolfberry can also relieve heat, and it makes Youmuren look more pleasing to the eye. Humph, woman.

Leaving Yukito alone in the house, Kakashi ran out of the Hatake house with a cup of water. He wanted to see if Kawazo had woken up today.

Youmuren? She didn't dare to act rashly, let alone go with Kakashi to see Sichuan and Tibet.

Although the tiger is dead, its power still remains, and Chuan Zang is not dead yet. If Yu Muren leaves and he opens his eyes, Yu Muren will be afraid that he will be scared to death.

Uchiha clan.

Itachi was respectfully carrying Kozo into the house with both hands.

"Mr. Gu Zang, you look so weak."

"Humph, what do you know, brat? This is called hypothetical dehydration. It's meant to confuse the enemy. Sometimes, it can even confuse our own people!"

"Oh, but I feel like you're speaking weakly..."

Itachi was spitted at, but he didn't get angry, his voice just became a little softer and turned into a mumble.

"I'm adjusting the frequency of my mouthparts' vocalizations. It's also a disguise! I'm a very stubborn old man! Bah, my mouthparts are very stubborn!"

Itachi pouted.

It's obviously the old man who is being stubborn and won't let anyone say anything...

"Mr. Gu Zang, you are here."

When they entered the house, Fugaku was already kneeling and had made tea. Mikoto was sitting next to him, silently supporting her husband.

"Fugaku, ah, Mikoto is pregnant again?"

Gu Zang noticed that Uchiha Mikoto's belly was a little bulging.

The one in there should be Wang Erzhuzi.

"What's wrong with you, kid? You let him come to see me in Mikoto's current condition. How can he not rest well?"

Fugaku quickly took the Kozang from Itachi's hand and placed it on the table.

"My wife herself is grateful for Mr. Kozang's teachings on Itachi, and she volunteered to accompany me to see you."

Mikoto also smiled gently and nodded.

"Mr. Kozang, thank you for your guidance on Itachi. He's usually quite quiet and can't speak, so I hope you can be more patient with him. And the child in my belly... maybe I'll need you in the future too."

Fugaku's expression changed, but he didn't turn to look at Mikoto.

Mikoto, you've talked too much. That's too much.

There are two meanings to entrusting an unborn child to Gu Zang.

One is to trust Gu Zang, and the other is to entrust an orphan to someone else.

Considering the current situation in Konoha, the first possibility is almost impossible.

Fugaku once told Mikoto about the situation and way out of the Uchiha clan. Mikoto was gentle and supported her husband unconditionally, but she couldn't help her husband. She could only rely on her affinity as a mother to talk to Kozang about it.

But in Fugaku's opinion, this remark might be unnecessary, and...it might not be a good thing.

"Oh......"

Gu Zang responded softly, and nothing else followed.

This made both Fugaku and Mikoto nervous.

Even Itachi beside him was a little puzzled.

What's wrong? Why is everyone so quiet? Weren't we all just talking and laughing, having a great time?

"This kid's talent is really good."

call--

As soon as Kozo spoke, Fugaku and Mikoto breathed a sigh of relief.

It turned out that he was using the same unique method as before to check the talent of the baby in Mikoto's belly. They thought that Gu Zang was unhappy.

"In that case, I won't interrupt Mr. Kozo and Fugaku's conversation. Itachi, come and help me."

"Ah, here comes Mother."

Itachi helped Mikoto leave the living room and return to the back house. Only then did Fugaku gently place the tea in front of Kozo.

Regardless of whether Gu Zang drinks or not, he has to serve it. He did the same thing before. Although Gu Zang was not happy, he was not unhappy either, right? It's all about the details~

"Mr. Gu Zang, this time, I actually have something I want to ask you."

"Ok, I know."

Gu Zang lay lazily beside the teacup.

The warm teacup can make his cold heart feel a little warm, but it's a pity that people's hearts are too cold, and the hearts of insects are like ice that will never melt, and Gu Zang's heart is even fake.

Tardigrades, heartless.

"No matter who takes the top position, the Uchiha will be fine."

Gu Zang did not directly reveal who would be the Hokage.

"Well, Mr. Kozang, you understand what I mean. I think... Uchiha, can you take this opportunity to go one step further?"

"Hahaha."

Gu Zang suddenly laughed.

Fugaku was confused, but Kozo found it quite amusing.

Back then, when he used Shinzo's body to test Fugaku, he knew that Fugaku was a very aggressive person. Even though he had matured over the years and learned to be patient, that aggressiveness was only hidden deeper, not disappeared.

Now, this sharpness has reappeared and is fully displayed.

He dared to ask Gu Zang this question directly to his face when Chuan Zang had just died and Gu Zang was weak.

Fugaku, this guy is completely worthy of being the patriarch of the Uchiha clan. It wasn't even the Uchiha who made Fugaku successful, but rather they were a bit of a burden to him.

In particular, he calmly faced death at the hands of his own son without changing his expression, and did not use his powerful strength because he knew that the Uchiha clan was powerless to save the situation, and as the clan leader, he had to abandon them to preserve Itachi and Sasuke as a hope.

Without the shackles of the Uchiha clan, people like Fugaku would definitely go higher and further.

Kozo's expectations for Fugaku are actually higher than his expectations for Itachi!

"Of course you can, but Fugaku, you have to understand that taking a step back may not necessarily lead to a bright future, but taking a step forward will definitely lead to a cliff."

"As ninjas, we dance on the edge of a knife, don't we? I've figured it out."

Fugaku lowered his head slightly, his eyeballs resting on his upper eyelids, and looked at Gu Zang.

Those eyes revealed the ambition he had hidden for many years.

"Haha...very good, but Fugaku, you'd better hide yourself a little deeper. Don't go too far before I die, old man."

"Don't dare."

"Humph."

It’s not that he doesn’t dare, not that he can’t. Although Gu Zang doesn’t care, he still has to show his stance.

Fugaku's path was paved by him. He knew how to go and how to go better than Fugaku.

"When Orochimaru returns, have Shisui contact him."
