Chapter Summaries

Minagawa Uchiha, an eleven-year-old Academy student, reflected on Konoha’s growing suspicion of the Uchiha and the mistakes that had left his clan on the brink of destruction. With the Uchiha Clan Downfall likely to happen within the month, he resolved to use the little time he had left to prepare.

• Minagawa Uchiha walked back to the Uchiha Clan Compound and saw hostility and suspicion toward the clan throughout Konoha.
• Minagawa judged that the Uchiha Clan Downfall was near, given the clan’s dissent and the recent increase in Anbu deployments.
• Minagawa recalled waiting by the Naka River for Shimura Danzō’s ambush of Uchiha Shisui but failing to find any Root agents.

• Minagawa recalled that his past-life memories had awakened only half a year earlier and that he was an orphan and graduating Ninja Academy student.
