Fugaku Uchiha is a fodder or possibly equal to Minato in power?

[KingHashirama]

He is protrayed as stronger than Itachi of that time. But people get his strength confused with the end of him not doing anything against Itachi.

 

[Disquiet]

Aside from being the head of the clan, he haven't had much portrayal. Hokage is suppose to be the strongest in their village, but let's not go there.

I'm sure he was a force to be reckoned with though.

um sir i believe um he lost to obito a 14 year old who soloed he his wife and a full powered nine tails thank you and if you say he didn't go re read cause manga fact minato got stabbed by the fox obitos weapon brought to the battle and died plus a 14 year tanked minatos best attack gtfoh obito beat a hokage at 14 bro and his name was overrated minato

are you a retard or something? obito didnt beat minato he got his ass handed to him and he only survive the rasengan because he had zetsu wrapped around him, and since when age matter in NV? a six year old gaara could solo the entire sand village. minato got stabbed protecting his child, fugaku is a fodder end of it and obito was butthurt arrogant and got his ass handed to him.

 

[Xlad]

I don't remember any implications of him being fodder or equal to Minato.

 

[Ababeel]

fugaku is indeed the leader of his clan, but Minato is the leader of the entire village including fugaku and his clan!

^ Speculation. Never implied in the manga.

Never implied? A said he fought Minato on more than one occasion (

As for the Sasuke vs A, I was wrong, Darui and did blast Sasuke back when he charged A and then Chee use his genjutsu. But it's not like they needed too, A was just standing there waiting for him but when A attacked Sasuke, Suigetsu intervene cause Sasuke needed the help but that's besides the point since when it did get to the 1 on 1 Sasuke couldn't do anything but stay in defense.

 

[YellowFang]

If I try to be generous...
He'd be J-man's base level, on the other hand I see him on equal grounds with part1 Kakashi...

Comparison with Minato is a big disgrace to the Kage...

 

[closecombat22]

lol why u alway do that?

U are the god of hateing minato end 2 war single handle manga fact. Minato kill armys in a blink of a eyez minato can kill a wholevillage

FUgka can't beat his son lol

 

[Cooh]

He is an Uchiha so it's just logical he's ahead of a freakin Namikaze.

 

[Mellanoma]

Sasuke = Fodder
Itachi = Prince
Madara = King

Madara got owned by Hashirama... Solo King implies you solo people and don't lose..

Itachi never lost a battle he didn't want to lose

OT: Only clan >= to Uchiha was Senju... Thus all non senju or uchiha are fodder against uchiha clan

That's specualtion. Remember Fugaku's words to Itachi the night Itachi killed him? and look at the panels provided from some of the other posters in this thread. Fugaku was in his kimono, back turned no Sharingan activated and in the dead of night. This suggests a sneak attack and not a head on battle. Itachi is smart, not stupid. Even Sasuke knew that Itachi couldn't take his entire clan on himself.

Now you guys are confusing your timelines. Minato was not the Hokage at the time the Uchiha clan was massacred. Hiruzen was. The massacre went down after the Kyubi attack on Kanoha. Meaning Minato had passed and Hiruzen was reinstated as Hokage. So if you are going to make a comparison to the reigning Hokage at the time it would be Hiruzen not Minato.

2nd: Again Itachi killed his father in the dead of night. He never faced his father in combat as the panels provided by other posters show. SO to assume Fugaku is a fodder is not proof it is SPECULATION! Just as assuming he is all powerful is speculation. But it is safe to ASSUME that in the Narutoverse, you don't get to be leader of a clan by being a fodder.

I really believe that, at the time, Fugaku was more powerful than Itachi which is why Itachi didn't face him head to head and used stealth to end him. Plus his father knew this was going to happen. Like Itachi let Sasuke win in their fight, so too did Fugaku as he knew Itachi's action were for the good of the village. This do not make him a fodder but a true clan leader.

R.I.P. leader of Clan Uchiha.

 

[UchihaMangekyou]

I wouldn't say fugaku was equal to minato but he had to be pretty strong to be leader of the uchiha. We didn't get to see much of his abilities except for the sharingan and katon--that might be all he had which isn't really much..I don't think fugaku was fodder just not near minato's level.

I don't see any scan that even remotely implies that Bee fought him more than once. Look at the scans again and you would know that Bee didn't put two and two together when it comes to Rasangan. That should be obvious enough.

And Ae was not using V2 Raiton shield that was pumped with Bijuu chakra? Okay.

 

[Shura]

Agreed. Your threads are always well explained and 100% legit, Sir Macho.

 

[Avinash012]

Fugaku is the leader of Uchiha clan ..he is Obviously strong..IMO he is low Kage/High Jounin level at best..

Are u serious about comparing him with Minato...?

He is the leader of Uchiha clan & Minato is the leader of Leaf that includes Uchiha clan... See the Difference.....

Really? Bee only used less-than-partial transformation and no cloaks and even then, completely anticipated Minato's attack. As a result of which, the fight ended in a draw. Ae never truly fought him and Minato retreated. On the other hand, Bee used all of his swords in Kenjutsu against a badly injured Sasuke, and went full eight tails. Ae used both his body-guards against Sasuke and lost his arm. So Sasuke won. You couldn't be MORE far off even if you wanted to.

So, With that Encounter alone Ay concluded that Minato is a Unparalled Shinobi...?

fugaka is not an average ninja because he have a sharingan which allow him to master other jutsu (not kkg) ;like taijutsu,ninjutsu,kenjutsu and other with ease.Fugaku is at maturity stage,which mean he should have some good battle experience

I don't remember Ignoring any of those points,I said he is Low Kage level, being a low Kage level Shinobi isn't an average thing .....More than Low Kage level would be Toomuch if u ask me....
