The Nanka Shrine, located beneath the seventh tatami mat of the Uchiha clan's ancestral hall in Konoha.

Uchiha Fugaku and numerous clansmen were in the midst of discussing a coup d'état.

Suddenly, the entrance passage directly above was opened, and Itachi jumped down, bringing Chuan Yu with him.

"Father, stop the coup."

Itachi walked forward and said calmly.

"What nonsense are you spouting! This coup is the hope of our entire clan!"

Before Uchiha Fugaku could even speak, an elder to the side flew into a rage first.

Including those uncles and senior members of the clan, the looks they cast at Itachi were filled with suspicion.

Uchiha Fugaku had previously discussed the coup with Itachi, but Itachi's stance had been somewhat wavering.

Consequently, the clansmen had demanded that Itachi be monitored, and at the time, Shisui had been the one assigned to watch him.

"Shisui is dead."

At Itachi's sudden declaration, the entire hall fell into a deathly silence. Everyone stared at Itachi in shock, the suspicion on their faces becoming even more pronounced.

Uchiha Fugaku took a deep breath, his right fist tightening slightly on the armrest of his chair.

He knew that Shisui had been negotiating with Konoha recently, including during the final meeting where he and Danzō had reached a complete impasse, ultimately resulting in the failure of the negotiations.

It was right at that time that Shisui...

"Itachi, how exactly did Shisui die?"

At this moment, the elder Uchiha Hiuhe to the side suddenly glared fiercely at Itachi.

It wasn't just a simple question; Uchiha Hiuhe's words instantly drew everyone's attention.

It was Itachi who had been wavering earlier, and Shisui was the monitor.

The two had been the closest; if something had happened to Shisui, then the problem before them could not be clearer.

Itachi had lost all trust in the hearts of the clansmen, all because of their determination to carry out the coup.

"On the bridge over the River of Nanka, by the time I arrived, Shisui had already decided to die, but do you know when he reached that point?"

Itachi's eyes were filled with sorrow. Even at this late hour, the clansmen before him still did not realize their own faults.

"When those final negotiations were declared a failure, Shisui had already been pushed to the brink by the Uchiha..."

The clansmen in the hall fell silent after hearing Itachi's words.

Itachi took out Shisui's suicide note and gave it to Fugaku. A moment later, Fugaku announced to the clansmen his intention to suspend the coup.

The clansmen did not object; after all, Shisui had acted for their sake, and now that Konoha had driven Shisui to his death, they would hold off for a while.

After a brief silence, Uchiha Fugaku looked toward the Uchiha Chuan Yu standing beside Itachi.

"The little one has suffered quite a few grievances, hasn't he..."

Fugaku's eyes were filled with kindness as he stood up and walked toward Chuan Yu.

The moment Chuan Yu looked up, the Uchiha clansmen were truly startled.

A Sharingan in the left eye, and a Byakugan in the right.

However, the Uchiha clansmen did not show the kind of sentiment the Hyūga family might have; instead, a warmth born of shared blood tightly enveloped Chuan Yu, which made him feel very comforted.

"The Hyūga family is truly blind! To call such a talent an anomaly—I believe his future achievements will surely surpass those of the past Hokage! From today on, Uchiha Chuan Yu is a member of my Uchiha clan!"

Fugaku patted Chuan Yu's head and smiled gently, bowing his head: "And he is my, Uchiha Fugaku's, own son."

Chuan Yu was suddenly stunned, and as he looked into Fugaku's eyes, tears began to stream down his face.

Even though he had arrived as a transmigrator, he had been lonely for two years, and this was the first time he had felt familial love.

It was also the first time he had been truly accepted.

However, Fugaku's earlier statement that Chuan Yu would surpass the past Hokage was no empty boast, for when he saw that Chuan Yu, at only six years old, had already awakened a two-tomoe Sharingan, such talent was even stronger than Itachi's.

But what truly earned his recognition was Chuan Yu's right eye.

One had to know that the Hyūga family's Byakugan was not something one was born with; to awaken it, one had to undergo grueling training.

When Uchiha Kagami was still alive, he had mentioned Chuan Yu to Fugaku once.

The Hyūga family would never teach him their ninjutsu or their unique secret techniques.

Beyond being bullied and having to think about how to deal with them every day, where would Chuan Yu have found the time for rigorous training?

Yet, this child, Chuan Yu, had managed to awaken his eyes silently, which truly shocked Fugaku.

Fortunately, both the Uchiha and Hyūga families had done a good job with confidentiality, and no one in the other Konoha families knew of Chuan Yu's identity.

The Hyūga family was afraid of losing face.

The Uchiha were under immense pressure at the time.

"Everyone listen! Chuan Yu's identity must be kept secret! No one is allowed to mention his past. If I discover that anyone has spoken of it in private, or informed outsiders..."

Uchiha Fugaku's cold gaze swept across the members of the clan, and then he said fiercely: "Death!!!"

Fortunately, Chuan Yu discovered that he could conceal both his Sharingan and Byakugan, a fact that caught Fugaku by surprise.

After the discussion concluded, Chuan Yu followed Fugaku and Itachi home.

Upon arriving at the doorstep, Itachi pushed open the door.

"Nii-san!!!"

A little guy about the same age as Chuan Yu threw himself directly into Itachi's arms.

"Sasuke must have been bored stiff being home alone."

Fugaku smiled as he changed his shoes, then picked up Chuan Yu and walked into the house.

"Mikoto, guess who this little guy is."

Mikoto Uchiha was cooking in the kitchen; she froze the moment she saw Fugaku walk in carrying Chuan Yu.

"This little one is so cute, but if you ask who he looks like, he does bear a resemblance to Shisui!"

"Let me hold him!"

Mikoto hurriedly wiped her hands, eager to take Chuan Yu.

"Mikoto..."

"Shisui, he..."

Fugaku spoke up suddenly, his expression complex.

Having been husband and wife for decades, Mikoto naturally understood what Fugaku was trying to convey.

It was well known that Itachi and Shisui were close friends; back then, Shisui would come over to their house to eat with Itachi every day after training.

Moreover, Shisui often praised her cooking, always showing his appreciation by eating several large bowls.

Tears flowed from Mikoto's eyes involuntarily...

A few minutes later, Itachi took Chuan Yu and Sasuke back to their room, while Fugaku and Mikoto began to discuss the matter of adopting Chuan Yu.

"Nii-san, who is this guy!"

This was Chuan Yu's first time seeing the cute, soft, and adorable Sasuke.

Compared to the pretentious face of the grown-up Sasuke he had seen in the anime before transmigrating, this was much better.

Chuan Yu didn't speak; he walked straight over and pinched Sasuke's cheeks: "How cute..."

"St... stop! It hurts! Nii-san!!!"

Seeing that the two little ones seemed to get along quite well, Itachi felt deeply gratified.

"Sasuke, this is Chuan Yu. He will be your brother from now on. I will protect both of you well."

Itachi ruffled both their hair and said with a smile.

"Although I'm reluctant... but since you've already asked, Brother, I'll make do and call him Second Brother, hmph!"

You have to admit, this little Sasuke was truly a tsundere.

But not taking advantage of a good deal would be foolish, so Chuan Yu gave a shameless grin and, imitating Itachi, ruffled Sasuke's hair: "Good boy, Third Brother!"

Sasuke immediately pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Itachi! Chuan Yu! Sasuke! Dinner's ready!"

Mikoto's voice drifted in from outside.

Sasuke hurried to be the first to jump off the bed and scampered out.

The table was filled with a feast of delicious dishes.

Looking at the food, Chuan Yu felt an infinite sense of being moved.

Two years...

Do you know how I spent these past two years?!

Do you know?!

Picking up his bowl and chopsticks, Chuan Yu began to wolf down his food.

Seeing Chuan Yu's state, Mikoto's eyes turned red.

This child has suffered so much...

"Eat slowly, don't choke!"

Though she said this, she kept piling food into Chuan Yu's bowl.

Fugaku nodded slightly from the side.

"You will live here from now on; we are a family. In a while, you and Sasuke will go to the academy together."

Seeing Chuan Yu eating with such gusto, Sasuke refused to be outdone, picking up his own bowl and digging in with big mouthfuls.

Both of them ended up with greasy faces and rice grains on their chins, causing everyone to burst into laughter.

As the night deepened, the warmth of the family was deeply etched into Chuan Yu's mind; he would never forget this scene.

Before going to sleep that night, Mikoto took out a pair of scissors to trim Chuan Yu's long hair and helped him bathe.

Looking at himself in the mirror, his hairstyle was identical to Shisui's. According to Mikoto, seeing Chuan Yu was just like seeing Shisui; the two were far too alike.

She said she had also cut Shisui's hair before, so she was used to it.

Late at night, lying in bed, Chuan Yu was making detailed plans for the future.

Shisui was merely the first sacrifice of this coup; the true uprising would erupt completely in a year's time.

And by that time, Itachi Uchiha would also make his move to annihilate the clan.

Right now, Itachi Uchiha should already be a double agent for both Konoha and the Uchiha.

What Chuan Yu needed to do was improve himself as quickly as possible within this year to prevent Itachi Uchiha's plan for the massacre.

To Chuan Yu, there was no right or wrong; it was simply that the Uchiha had been in a passive position from the start, and in this world, the victors always had the final say.

If the Uchiha could emerge victorious in the coup, then naturally the Uchiha would be the ones in charge, and they would not be treated in such a manner.

Tonight had been truly heartwarming—Fugaku's generosity, Mikoto's care, and having a gentle older brother and a cute younger brother.

The Uchiha only wanted to survive; they only wanted to reclaim the power and honor that had once belonged to them! They were not wrong! It was the suppression from the very beginning that had led to the current situation.

And all of this was because of Danzō and that hypocritical Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Killing them and then leading the Uchiha to take control of Konoha would change their current fate!
