Beginning

Naka Shrine was the forbidden ground and ancestral land of the Uchiha Clan. It was only opened when the Uchiha held a Clan Meeting; ordinarily, only the Clan Head could enter.

When Uchiha Madara was Clan Head, the Uchiha family was entirely under his control. Clan Meetings were nothing more than a formality.

After all, Uchiha Madara's strength spoke for itself. Without exaggeration, he was absolutely the strongest person the Uchiha Clan had produced in nearly a century!

Unfortunately, the Uchiha Clan's archrival, the Senju Clan, had also produced a terrifying figure—someone capable of pinning Uchiha Madara down and beating him.

Although, in Habara's memories, Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama had both appeared exhausted by the time of their final battle.

Senju Hashirama had still been able to launch a sneak attack under those circumstances. It was clear that while the two were evenly matched, Senju Hashirama held the overall advantage.

Even if that advantage was slight, at their level of strength, it was still a considerable gap.

Moreover, throughout their long struggle, Senju Hashirama had generally held the upper hand.

So Senju Hashirama becoming Konoha's First Hokage had not only been due to Uchiha Madara's personality, but also because of their difference in strength, right?

Yet now, the Senju Clan was gone. The Uchiha remained, but they too had reached an extremely dangerous point.

And the current Uchiha no longer had the peerlessly domineering Uchiha Madara of the past.

In Uchiha history, perhaps only Uchiha Madara had directly Doesn't Need to convene a Clan Meeting, because none of the Clan Heads before him had been as forceful as he was.

Therefore, most family matters had to be discussed at Clan Meetings held at regular intervals, and only after deliberation would they consider whether to carry them out.

Although the Clan Head also had the authority to veto and decide matters, especially in certain critical situations, few Clan Heads would generally do such a thing.

Habara quietly walked toward Naka Shrine with Shisui. Both of them were somewhat nervous at this moment.

After all, what they were about to do tonight was likely unprecedented in the entire Uchiha Clan.

However, they were both qualified shinobi and could control their emotions.

"Are you nervous?" Habara suddenly asked with an amused smile. "After all, what's happening tonight won't be simple."

"A little, but with you here, I believe everything will be fine." Shisui took a deep breath before slowly answering.

"Let's hope nothing goes wrong today." Habara Nodded, then continued, "By the way, will Itachi attend the Clan Meeting?"

"Normally, he would." Shisui Nodded, but his expression soon became incomparably grave. "However, I won't let him come in!"

This Time, the Clan Meeting was exceedingly important. Habara and the Elders all believed that everything which happened inside was best kept from spreading until the problem had been completely resolved.

No one wanted complications, nor did anyone want someone to use this matter to arrange something unfavorable after word got out.

Only once they had dealt with everything properly would they announce it to the outside world.

As a member of the Anbu, Uchiha Itachi had already made his stance perfectly clear. No matter what, Habara would not allow him to attend this Clan Meeting.

Even if he was Uchiha Fugaku's son, even if he possessed the Three-Tomoe Sharingan, he would not be allowed!

The Uchiha Clan was a family that took pride in the Sharingan.

In the eyes of Uchiha family members, only Clan Members who had awakened the Sharingan could be considered true members of the Uchiha Clan and hold a certain degree of influence within the family.

Thus, attending the Clan Meeting at Naka Shrine required one prerequisite:

Only Clan Members who had awakened the Sharingan were qualified to appear here and participate in the Clan Meeting.

"Then I'll leave it to you." Habara smiled gently at Shisui, then took a deep breath before speaking seriously. "We're here. Let's go create an era that belongs to us!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Habara was the first to push open the Great Door. Shisui solemnly Nodded and followed Habara inside.

As the Great Door opened, the Uchiha Clan Members already seated within the shrine involuntarily turned to Looked Towards Habara and Shisui.

Yet when they saw Habara and Shisui, they all unconsciously withdrew their gazes and lowered their heads slightly, not daring to meet the eyes of either man.

The entire clan knew Shisui's reputation. Whether they were young Moderates or Hardliners, they had no choice but to acknowledge his prowess.

The Moderate members in particular understood Shisui's strength and his standing with Uchiha Zong.

As for Uchiha Habara, although he had been as famous as Shisui since childhood, ever since he chose to become a Mission Ninja instead of joining any faction within the family, or even the Military Police Force,

Habara's name had gradually been suppressed within the clan. Although the younger generation still thought well of him, they all shared the same belief.

Habara probably had No Way to catch up to Shisui. No matter how close the two were, the gap between them would only grow wider.

Yet what Make People never could have imagined, even in their dreams, was that Habara had suddenly undergone earth-shaking changes a few months ago.

Afterward, he had somehow gained Shisui's support and the Elders' trust. Most importantly, he too was an Uchiha with the Mangekyō Sharingan!

This news had truly left them all stunned. What shocked them even more was that those Hardliners had actually chosen to support him as well.

Moreover, those people had joined forces with them to revise many of the beliefs they had originally insisted upon!

All of This had changed so quickly that it left them dizzy.

What they found hardest to imagine was that they were now going to overthrow the current Clan Head and make Habara, a fifteen-year-old boy, the new Clan Head!

But they had to admit that after hearing the Elders and Shisui explain Habara's views, they too felt that Habara was right.

The Uchiha truly needed to change. Their current Clan Head was indeed unqualified, and they truly needed to do something.

Even the Moderates had come to think this way and acknowledge Habara, so there was even less need to mention the Hardliners.

After all, everyone among them who could sit here had been taught a lesson by Habara personally. They had also witnessed Habara's Mangekyō Sharingan with their own eyes!

They would likely never forget the strange patterns in Habara's eyes, nor would they forget the azure Susanoo that had taken on a humanoid form around him.

That night, Habara had been like an Asura. That night, their confidence had been beaten Scattered by Habara!

Now they were all willing to support Habara. Not only had his words and ideas Made Him understand their own problems, but more importantly, Habara's strength was worthy of their following.

The only person present whose expression appeared somewhat grave was Uchiha Fugaku, seated in the Clan Head's position.

He stared at Habara, then at Shisui, his Thoughts in turmoil.
