when Tsunade peeks at Fugaku

  He had been wandering around for the past six months, leaving everything behind. Now, as he came back to Konoha, his home, he was overcome with emotion when he saw Mikoto.

Sadly, he still had to wait for more than three months to see his son, who was only 6 months old baby in her belly. Pregnancy isn't just a trial for women; it's a test for men as well.

In his previous world, countless men cheated on their pregnant wives, especially the successful ones. It was remarkable that he could resist this temptation, given his bloodline.

Mikoto blushed when she heard her husband's frank words and shyly asked, "Is that... the reason why you were away for so long?"

"Huh? Oh, yes, too." Fugaku scratched his head embarrassedly.

His wife's blunt question made him feel a little embarrassed. "So, how did it go for you during those six months?"

Mikoto found it difficult to express her thoughts. She had been contemplating this issue for a long time; even if she wasn't pregnant, she was unsure if she could satisfy her husband.

She was curious if her husband had been unfaithful. She was aware that there were places similar to bathhouses in the world. What would she do if her husband had indeed been unfaithful?

She didn't know what to say. Perhaps she would accept it as long as her husband still loved her.

He wondered why she had such thoughts, and although he didn't think much about it, he waved his hand and said, "All I did was master some ninjutsu and chakra control; why did you suddenly ask that?"

Fugaku then looked up and saw Mikoto's flushed face, and he misunderstood the situation.

Despite being pregnant, Mikoto's beauty remained unchanged, captivating him even more.

He couldn't resist the urge to rise from his seat and gently embrace her, knowing she was carrying their six-month-old child.

In his arms, with an smirk on his face: "I've put up with it for so long. Will you help me relive some stress?"

"Huh?" Mikoto looked at Fugaku with a shy expression and asked, "How do I relieve some of your stress? Should I try with my mouth?"

Fugaku's mind was suddenly filled with thoughts that he hadn't considered for half a year upon hearing Mikoto's words. He quickly responded, "Sure, give it a try."

However, just as Mikoto was about to take action, Fugaku halted her movements and said, "Wait, let's go to the backyard and try it there."

Mikoto was puzzled, but Fugaku's reassuring smile made her feel at ease and willing to follow him.

....

It was late at night, and the streets of Konoha were almost deserted. Tsunade had just finished drinking, and she was walking alone on the street, looking at the starry night sky.

She wondered, Would there be another war? What was the meaning of such days? She hated war. Her lover and brother had died in the war.

Tsunade sighed, looking at the dim alley ahead of her. Her heart felt empty. Maybe her future was like this alley, full of darkness.

"Will anyone find out here? A girl's voice startled her. It sounded like Uchiha Mikoto. She realized that she had reached the alley behind Uchiha Fugaku's house.

But why was Mikoto afraid of being discovered? Tsunade was puzzled.

"No, who would be outside at this time?" Fugaku's answered.

Tsunade's face was shocked. She sobered up from the alcohol. The grudge between Uchiha and Konoha's leaders has always existed.

Did it mean that the Uchiha clan was plotting something?

She had to find out. She quickly made a hand seal. "Summoning justu."

A puff of white smoke appeared, and a tiny slug emerged beside her. This was her summoning beast, the slug. She could control the size of the summoned slug by adjusting the amount of chakra.

Tsunade gestured to the slug, and the slug slowly crawled up the wall. After a while, the slug came back, whispered something in Tsunade's ear, and disappeared.

Tsunade nodded, concealed her figure, and jumped to the location, landing silently where the slug had scouted.

Since Fugaku is the patriarch of the Uchiha clan, his backyard is quite spacious and adorned with rockeries and numerous large trees.

As Tsunade hid behind a big tree in the darkness, she gradually poked her head out, only to have an unforgettable sight appear before her eyes.
