----------------------------------

Mikoto was walking home with Kushina and Megumi. Fugaku saw her and greeted her with a smile.

"Umm, Fugaku-sama, I'll leave you two alone; uh, see you later." Kushina said her goodbye embarrassedly.

-------------------

Fugaku pov

It is an awkward situation for him, who is the subject of the wild rumors spreading around in the village. Megumi followed Mikoto and waited for the clan head's order.

Fugaku felt overwhelmed. He was away for one night, and he didn't expect that Konoha would be in turmoil.

First of all, he was visited by three arena guards, who left shortly after. and then Tsunade followed suite, bringing him Jirayia news.

He was shocked by the guards' confession. They had caused wild rumors to spread around the village. This matter was supposed to be a secret.

They recounted how one of the guards exclaimed in surprise and the restaurant patrons misunderstood, sparking a rumor.

When one of the guards exclaimed loudly, everyone heard it, but when another guard tried to explain to the restaurant patrons that it was not true, they did not believe him.

And then it spread like wildfire among the ordinary villagers, affecting the reputation of both fugaku and tsunade.

-------------------------------------

"Megumi, please make something to eat. Also, could you inform Akihiko to come talk with me?"

"Yes."

He breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, those three guards had informed him early in the morning. He had to sort it out with a lot of things; otherwise, they would have faced Tsunade's wrath.

However, Tsunade then brought him another piece of news that made him frown.

He wanted to spar with Jiraiya, but he didn't expect that the pervy sage would leave Konoha.

What was going on? He did not want to fight in the 3rd Ninja War and went to wander around and write erotica.

Or was he just hiding from him? That didn't seem plausible. Jiraiya was not that kind of person.

But he left. Fugaku didn't want to spread rumors about Jiraiya and was afraid to face him.

"Let's go, Mikoto. We'll talk a lot about it when we get home."

He knew he had to explain Mikoto about Tsunade and him. He had to clear up this misunderstanding as soon as possible and resolve it before it caused more trouble.

----------------------------

Hokage office.

"What? He defeated nearly five hundred people by himself." Tsunade exclaims in surprise.

Only the high-ranking officials of Konoha knew about his strength. Tsunade hated these political struggles, so she was not aware of Fugaku's affair.

But in order to be sure about his newfound strength, she went to see the Third Hokage, especially after helping Jiraiya deliver a message to him.

Her investigation shocked her very much. Five hundred people? What ridiculous kind of strength is that?

Without defensive measures, it would be impossible to face them by relying on physical strength alone, not to mention that these nearly five hundred people are all elite ninja of the Uchiha clan.

She knew she was strong, even if she used her Hundred Healing Technique, and she also doubted that she faced those hundreds of ninjas. They would exhaust her chakra reserve if they fought by taking turns during the fight.

The Third Hokage continued: "Yes, he only used four types of nature transformation of ninjutsu at that time, but we believe that he can use all five types.

According to our guess, it is very likely because his wind attribute, nature transformation, is one of his main attributes.

He was afraid of hurting his clan members and did not use it, and his chakra reserve exceeds the tail beast…"

At that time, Fugaku displayed a variety of types of ninjutsu that needed a lot of chakra, and after such a long time of fighting, he still looked relaxed, which showed his incredible physical strength and vast chakra reserve.

Even the Third Hokage might be able to achieve the same record as him, but he definitely couldn't be so calm and composed after the fight.

"Sur… surpassing the tail beast?" Tsunade was shocked.

Her chakra was not large because she did not inherit her grandpa's physique, so in order to cope with long combat situations, she created the Yin Seal technique to accumulate the unused chakra over a long period of time in her forehead.

"Hahaha, according to him, he ate some strange and exotic fruits and stimulated his potential." The Third Hokage said it with hearty laughter.

He couldn't believe that because it was completely unknown to his knowledge. But he couldn't deny it either, because the world was so big that there were so many wonders, and if something like that existed, it was not impossible.

"Stimulate potential; can that give him such a remarkable regeneration ability?" Tsunade question.

"regeneration ability?" The Third Hokage.
