Chapter 351: Six-Tailed Utakata Appears
He happened to bump into Mikoto, who was coming out to get a fresh-keeping bag.
Mikoto asked in surprise, "Husband, are you done with your work?"
She remembered that he had told her not to disturb him and that he wouldn't be eating lunch.
"I'm done."
Uchiha Fugaku nodded.
"Then are you still eating?"
"Yes."
"Emm, then I'll have to cook some noodles; I didn't cook rice for you."
Mikoto pondered as she walked into the kitchen.
Uchiha Fugaku looked at Mikoto's back and felt a little emotional; he hadn't seen Mikoto for almost two months, and he really missed her.
This was also why he didn't choose to stay in Grand Blue; mainly, he was homesick.
On the sofa, Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Sasuke, and Naruto, the three brothers, sat there, playing a multiplayer Resident Evil game.
He didn't see Kushina, so she was most likely helping Mikoto in the kitchen?
He glanced at the entrance and saw Uchiha Izumi's shoes were also there; he didn't see Uchiha Izumi in the living room, so she must have been helping in the kitchen as well.
Uchiha Fugaku simply walked into the kitchen and, as expected, saw Kushina and Uchiha Izumi helping out, washing vegetables and chopping them.
"Wife, did you go house-hunting this morning?"
"Not yet, we're going after lunch."
Uchiha Mikoto said.
Uchiha Fugaku asked in surprise, "Why not this morning?"
"We were busy with other things this morning," Mikoto said vaguely, urging Uchiha Fugaku to leave quickly and not disturb them while they cooked.
Uchiha Fugaku was helpless; since Mikoto was chasing him out, he had no choice but to exit the kitchen.
After lunch, they had some fruit, and Mikoto indeed took the large group out.
Kushina, Izumi, plus the three brothers, a group of six, set off grandly.
Uchiha Fugaku didn't follow them; it was just to see Kushina's old house, which wasn't much to see, so he chose not to go along.
Bored, Uchiha Fugaku took a nap, and when he woke up, it was almost dark.
He just happened to hear Mikoto and the others talking in the yard.
"You're back so soon?" Uchiha Fugaku was stunned, looked at the time, and suddenly realized it was already almost six in the evening.
After dinner, Uchiha Fugaku, having nothing to do, returned to the study on the second floor.
He looked at the game helmet on the table, thought about it, and decided not to wear it to play; after staying in Grand Blue for two months, he decided to stay at home for a few days before continuing to the next anime world.
He continued playing from his daytime game save for a while, and when he saw it was quite late, Uchiha Fugaku turned off the computer and got up to prepare for a bath and sleep.
As soon as he came out of the study, he bumped into Kushina coming out of her room; seeing her go left instead of downstairs, she was probably going to the restroom.
Their eyes met, and Uchiha Fugaku nodded as a greeting.
Kushina, seeing Uchiha Fugaku alone, seemed to recall the unexpected incident from last night, and perhaps due to nervousness, she almost bumped into the wall as she walked.
She quickly entered the bathroom, and Uchiha Fugaku, who hadn't gone far, heard a click, the sound of the bathroom door being locked from the inside.
Uchiha Fugaku smiled helplessly, thinking to himself that it wasn't intentional last time.
He didn't pay it any mind, thought for a moment, and then returned to the study.
After waiting for a while, he heard the bathroom door open, and Uchiha Fugaku lingered for a bit before leaving the study.
Back in the room, Mikoto had already changed into her pajamas and was asleep under the covers.
Uchiha Fugaku quietly took a change of clothes from the wardrobe and went to the bathroom to shower.
The next day, Uchiha Fugaku slept until he woke up naturally; indeed, the bed at home was more comfortable, and just then, Naruto ran into the room to call him to wash up and prepare for breakfast.
If the head of the family hadn't touched his chopsticks, no one else could touch theirs.
The rules were very strict.
Uchiha Fugaku expressed his acceptance of adapting to local customs.
Anyway, he was used to it.
However, when he wasn't home, this rule naturally wouldn't be enforced.
After staying at home for two days, just as Uchiha Fugaku was about to continue playing with the game helmet, Uchiha Ryoichi brought news of the Six-Tails Jinchūriki.
It turned out that the Six-Tails Jinchūriki, Utakata, had appeared in Naoetsu, Land of Fire.
Because of Utakata's special attire, and coupled with the fact that Naoetsu, Land of Fire, was currently full of ninja squads going to exterminate Goblins, they accidentally spotted Utakata and uploaded the information.
Now, several squads were secretly monitoring the Six-Tails Jinchūriki, Utakata, and other squads were gathering in Naoetsu.
Unless Utakata could fly, he truly had no way to escape.
Because the Konoha ninja squads didn't need to engage Utakata; they only needed to trail behind him from a distance.
Although Utakata was the Six-Tails Jinchūriki, his own strength was very ordinary.
Utakata could use foam-type ninjutsu, but he hadn't fully mastered the Tailed Beast's power.
In fact, the ninja squads surrounding Naoetsu could probably capture Utakata alive if they swarmed him, but considering that the Six-Tails Jinchūriki might lose control, and coupled with the need to exterminate Goblins near Naoetsu, it was not suitable to cause a major disturbance.
Therefore, their mission would naturally not be to engage Utakata; simply keeping an eye on him would complete their mission.
Uchiha Fugaku didn't waste time; he directly summoned Susanoo and flew quickly to Naoetsu.
He had almost captured all the Tailed Beasts; last time, he brought the One-Tail Shukaku and Seven-Tails Chōmei Jinchūriki back to Konoha Village, and adding the Two-Tails Matatabi and Eight-Tails Gyūki brought back to the village before, the only Tailed Beasts still at large were the Six-Tails Utakata, Three-Tails, Four-Tails, and Five-Tails.
In just one day, Uchiha Fugaku traveled from Konoha Village to Jiangjin Pier.
Led by an intelligence officer in Naoetsu, Uchiha Fugaku arrived at a forest outside Naoetsu.
When Uchiha Fugaku arrived, Utakata was sitting by a bonfire, roasting a fish.
"Who's there?"
Utakata was quite alert, sensing someone in the forest.
But unfortunately, mere alertness wasn't enough, and he sensed it a little too late.
Another thing was that Uchiha Fugaku didn't hide his tracks, and the sound of him walking was noticed by Utakata.
Overall, Utakata's alertness was just so-so.
The next second, Utakata saw a pair of glowing red eyes approaching in the night.
It was the first time Utakata had seen these eyes; he didn't recognize the mysterious pattern at all, but the immense pressure the other party brought him was undeniable.
Sweat beaded on Utakata's forehead; he realized the danger.
But it was already too late.
With one Tsukuyomi from Uchiha Fugaku, Utakata was done for.
Lifting Utakata onto Susanoo, Uchiha Fugaku set off on his way back to the village.
Another day passed, and Uchiha Fugaku returned to Konoha Village in the evening.
By this time, Kushina was already in bed, asleep.
Uchiha Fugaku knocked on her door, asking her to help reinforce the seal on Utakata.
Reviving Kushina had always included the intention of having her serve as a sealing tool.
Kushina didn't refuse; she readily followed Uchiha Fugaku downstairs and, in the courtyard, reinforced the seal on Utakata, which didn't take too much time.
Reinforcing seals was not difficult for her.
After reinforcing the seal, Uchiha Fugaku also had Kushina seal away Utakata's chakra.
