Chapter 108. Gained Weight Again!

Chapter 108. Gained Weight Again!

---

That night.

After returning to the camp, Obito tore down all the billboards again.

Then—

He went to rest feeling refreshed.

It seemed he even had a good dream.

In it—

He achieved his dream!

He became the Hokage.

Kakashi knelt at his feet, following him around, constantly shouting, [Obito-sama!]

And that bastard… under his command, went bankrupt, could no longer sell milk tea, became a poor guy, and then clung to Obito-sama's feet, begging endlessly for the Hokage to forgive him.

It was so satisfying!

And the dream felt so real...

…

"Yuto, what's wrong?"

Suzune looked at Yuto, who was sometimes frowning and sometimes serious, and asked worriedly, "Is something the matter?"

He looked quite troubled.

However—

"Nothing! It's just..." Yuto shook his head and smiled slightly. "I woke up this morning feeling a bit uneasy, probably didn't sleep well last night!"

It's all Itachi's fault!

Why so shy?

How can someone so chubby still be so agile? It makes his uncle worry every day!

Indeed, he's still not fat enough!

These past few days, for some reason, that kid has been so afraid of letting him spend money.

Is he worried about him going bankrupt?

Don't joke around!

Doesn't he know his Uncle Yuto is loaded?

Even ordering food so cautiously.

What if his elder brother sees this and misunderstands?

He might think I'm mistreating my nephew!

Enjoying Suzune's cooking, Yuto stopped overthinking and forgot all the messy thoughts in his head, humming and moaning in satisfaction.

Suddenly—

Just as Yuto was comfortably groaning—

Knock knock~

There was a knock at the door.

Yuto was startled, sat up straight, ignored Suzune, who was tidying her clothes again, walked over, and opened the door to see Uncle Sato standing there.

"What's up?"

"Boss... did I disturb you?"

Uncle Sato looked at Yuto's disheveled clothes, hesitated, and said, "Should I come back later?"

"..."

What are you imagining?

I said it's all normal!

What are these guys always thinking about?

Yuto rolled his eyes and said impatiently, "Get to the point!"

Do I look like the kind of boss who would mess around in the office?

"Oh, oh, okay!"

Hearing the boss's command, Uncle Sato quickly stood at attention and then said seriously, "It's nothing major! It's just... Clan Leader Fugaku is back!"

As soon as he finished speaking—

"???"

Yuto was suddenly stunned, his eyebrows raised, standing frozen in place.

Dumbfounded.

A look of complete shock.

This immediately made Uncle Sato and Suzune, who saw him, panic.

"Yuto (Boss), what's wrong?!"

"I..."

Yuto's mouth twitched, he came back to his senses, and muttered to himself—

"I think I know why... I've had this terrible feeling since I woke up this morning!"

…

"I'm back!" A low murmur of realization.

"Clan Leader, should we send someone to inform Mikoto-sama at the clan grounds first?"

"Hmm." Fugaku snapped out of his thoughts and nodded calmly, then paused for a moment. "Send someone... to inform Yuto as well."

"Yes!" The Uchiha ninja nodded in acknowledgment, then led a group to handle the village entry registration.

Not long after—

Uchiha Fugaku, having completed the registration, entered the village with a group of Uchiha.

Next—

He needed to report to the Hokage about his mission, and only then could he return home.

Although he missed Itachi dearly and wondered if Itachi had remembered his words to stay away from that Yuto, as a ninja, how could he just go home directly at a time like this?

And during this period...

So much had happened!

Fugaku's eyes flickered, a hint of red flashing through, but it quickly returned to calm. His face remained as expressionless as ever, as if someone owed him millions, as he walked slowly forward.

The village looked the same as before, but it seemed livelier than when he had left.

Perhaps it was because the war was nearing its end.

In a few days, representatives from Kirigakure would arrive, and during this time, most of the ninjas out on missions would gradually return. As for Kumogakure... they wouldn't hold out much longer either.

Looking at the Yuto Milk Tea Shop and Yuto BBQ not far away... perhaps it was because he hadn't been there in so long, but seeing them now made his heart itch.

But now was not the time.

After finishing his report, he would come back later with everyone.

After a moment of contemplation, he continued walking forward.

Although he was disappointed that Yuto had given up being a ninja to become a businessman, there was no doubt... in this regard, Yuto had succeeded. As his elder brother, he could only offer his blessings now.

Fugaku's face remained expressionless as he looked ahead, but deep down, he felt a real sense of relief upon returning to the village. [I'll have Yuto come home for a meal tomorrow.]

That brat... always so infuriating!

He's not like the little brother who trained diligently and followed him around, asking about ninjutsu anymore!

A faint smile flickered across Fugaku's lips for a moment, but it quickly returned to its usual stoic expression, making the villagers around him keep their distance!

After all, the Uchiha clan was one of the noble clans of Konoha, always looking down on others, often judging by appearances, and never listening to explanations.

Not long ago, there was a young Uchiha shouting something like "No, no, no!" under the snow, rain, and lights!

As if the sky was falling!

Like a lunatic!

Better not provoke!

Definitely better not provoke!

Though that old Uchiha man dancing in the dance hall was quite entertaining.

Fugaku didn't mind, or rather... he was used to it.

The tension between the Uchiha clan and Konoha wasn't something that had happened overnight.

With a few ninjas carrying long swords at their waists, he continued walking expressionlessly toward the Hokage Building.

Suddenly.

At that moment—

Fugaku seemed to notice something, paused, and immediately frowned, looking toward a spot not far away. After a moment of thought, he walked over.

"Clan Leader?" The Uchiha ninja behind him asked in confusion.

He had no idea why the clan leader suddenly walked in another direction.

But he quickly followed.

Not long after—

"Father (Fugaku-sama)."

The two little ones looked somewhat embarrassed at the approaching, stoic Fugaku.

"Oh, it's Itachi and Izumi!"

The Uchiha ninja who had followed breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled warmly at the two children. "Are you two on a date?"

"N-no, it's not like that~" Izumi waved her hands in panic.

"No." Itachi said flatly.

"..."

Itachi, you jerk!

So chubby!

Izumi's face froze, and the blush disappeared.

However—

Fugaku paid no attention to the children's emotions, simply nodded faintly and didn't say anything more. His brow furrowed slightly, and after a moment of thought, he looked up at Itachi's chubby face... and reached out his hands.

Fugaku: ()`ω(ヾ)

"You've gained weight again."

A calm voice slowly rang out.

As soon as he finished speaking—

Itachi: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ
