Honor and responsibility? Who's he trying to fool?
Realizing he was getting a bit too heated, Fugaku Uchiha took a deep breath and raised his hand to calm the situation.
"That's not what I meant. I just hoped we could sit down and have a calm, reasonable conversation."
"There's nothing to talk about. The honor of the Uchiha Clan doesn't belong to me, and neither does its responsibility," Xin replied, shaking his head as he lifted the basket of groceries.
"I've said everything I need to. I hope, Young Master, that you won't trouble me any further. Otherwise, I'll have to ask you to spin around here and show off your dancing skills for everyone."
"Trust me, if you try it, you'll regret it. Regret it so much, you'll wish you could turn back time."
"I'll be back," Fugaku gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and turned to leave.
People around them started to notice, some whispering among themselves.
"Isn't that the Uchiha Clan's Young Master?"
"Honor and responsibility of the Uchiha? What a joke. Besides bullying villagers, what else do they do?"
"Exactly! My brother-in-law got drunk and spat in one of their faces, and they locked him up for three months. He lost so much weight, and we had to pay a hefty fine."
"....."
Your brother-in-law is lucky he didn't get beaten to death.
Hearing this, Xin couldn't help but roll his eyes.
It was true that the Uchiha's role in the police force had earned them a lot of animosity. They were blamed for everything, even though some of it was pushed onto them by the higher-ups. Still, it was clear-the police force was far from beloved.
Always dealing with the dirty work, earning the villagers' respect and affection was almost impossible.
"Did you finish your little chat?" Tsunade asked as she approached, carrying some groceries and looking like she was done with life. Kushina, on the other hand, was all smiles.
'Why do I have to be dragged out to buy groceries first thing in the morning?' Tsunade thought, annoyed. And she had been threatened with no food if she didn't go.
"What chat? Do you think I'm stupid enough to rejoin the Uchiha?" Xin chuckled.
Tsunade raised an eyebrow, suddenly intrigued. "Really? I heard the Uchiha have some forbidden techniques related to the Sharingan. If you don't rejoin, you might never have a chance to learn them."
Xin looked at her in surprise. "As the granddaughter of the First Hokage, whose brother was practically a walking encyclopedia of forbidden jutsus, how many of those jutsus have you learned? Are you really from the Senju Clan?"
