Chapter 2 - Prologue

The Uchiha clan, a proud lineage renowned for its strength, arrogance, and powerful kekkei genkai, the Sharingan, has a rich history.

During the Warring States period, they established a village known as Konohagakure alongside their rivals, the Senju clan. Throughout the Warring States, these two clans fought fiercely against each other, locked in a bitter rivalry that seemed never-ending.

It wasn't until Hashirama Senju, the then-leader of the Senju and the First Hokage, made peace with Madara Uchiha, the head of the Uchiha clan, that they united to found the village.

Some claim that the Uchiha clan existed even during the era of the legendary Sage of Six Paths, but there is no evidence to confirm this—after all, legends often remain just that. Or do they?

Konoha, Hospital

On a night when most citizens of the village hidden in the leaves slept peacefully, a series of screams pierced the quiet in one of the hospital rooms.

Inside, a woman with long black hair lay in agony, her face contorted with pain and exhaustion, surrounded by two older women who were assisting her in what seem to be childbirth.

Her intermittent cries only heightened the anxiety of the man waiting outside the door. The labor stretched on for what felt like an eternity until, at last, the child was born with a loud cry.

For a brief moment, the sky turned blood red, casting an eerie shadow over the village before returning to its normal hue. Few noticed this unsettling phenomenon, and those who did had no explanation for it.

That day marked the birth of the heir to the Uchiha clan, the son of the current head, Fugaku Uchiha, and his wife, Mikoto Uchiha.

His name was Izuna Uchiha.
